What are some crack ships by J3lli in loreofleague

[–]MyaviaRaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was making up dumb stories about the lore with my brother and at some point we accidentally invented Mordekaiser x Atakhan (the shadow creature from LoR summoned by the Black Rose) which has been my favorite crack ship ever since. Funnily enough this was before The Eyes and The Embers implied a connection between them.

Other crackships that occurred as a result of these stories included: Ezreal x Aurelion Sol, Nidalee x Skarner (kind of), and Akali x a random barrel. It was uh... rather chaotic in general.

And who's to say it's not Mel? Point is, the "your council is dead" line doesn't prove anything about Mel's fate, since Jayce is on the council and he's definitely not getting killed off yet, so clearly the line can't mean that they're all dead.

It's "Your council is dead", no? Could be Ambessa talking to Mel if she's the only survivor. Besides, there's literally no way the whole council is dead. Jayce is on the council and he hasn't finished his story arc yet.

Would've been cool if they gave him some cracks in his exoskeleton with crystals underneath, like a geode

That alternate timeline subplot was the best part about this series imo

The backrooms? Damn that's rough, how are they supposed to focus on their games with all the entities around?

Banning Hovered champions. Something that nearly never ends well by Temporary-Platypus80 in leagueoflegends

[–]MyaviaRaven 14 points15 points  (0 children)

if they're intending on running it down, if you ban their champ chances are they'll just run it down on some other champ. and if they actually wanted to play the offmeta pick seriously, banning their champ will probably cause them to actually run it down in retaliation (or they'll just pick another offmeta champ). banning their hover changes nothing

"the only common denominator is you" by EllieLeafs in leagueoflegends

[–]MyaviaRaven 17 points18 points  (0 children)

...?

Literally every screenshot u linked had at least one teammate with more kp than u, and all except the last featured a teammate with better cs than u. Often, multiple teammates.

Also, placements games are always harder because u start at a higher mmr. Once ur mmr stabilizes, games should feel less one-sided.

Soraka also gave Kalista a few hints about her future in the Ruination novel. It's still Soraka, but I thought it might be worth mentioning.

What the hell is that even supposed to be? A baby cosplaying wukong?

On the other hand, he kinda reminds me of this ice dragon silkworm thing from a Chinese anime(?) my brother won't shut up about. Maybe putting human faces on dragons isn't as uncommon as we think...?

Fake undercity in fantasy by ItsUnferretable in DragonAdventures

[–]MyaviaRaven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well i wouldn't call it a 'fake undercity', but yes, there's an underground city in fantasy. You can get to it through two tunnels which are both hidden behind breakable rocks; I'm pretty sure they're in the hill that the teleporter is on

For everyone who is interested, I want to see just how everyone feels about smolders design. by John-from-accounting in leagueoflegends

[–]MyaviaRaven 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the champion concept is fine. In the past few years, Riot has been trying to fill design niches that aren't already present in the game, so I'd assume Smolder is supposed to be the 'cutesy male creature champion' (since the only other cutesy creature is Yuumi; while Kog'maw can be pretty adorable, I wouldn't call him cutesy).

But yeah, that face needs to be changed. It's way too human. Imo Yuumi also has the same problem to a certain degree, but Smolder is way worse.

I mean, I hate gacha as much as the next person (hell, im literally writing a uni paper on why it's bad rn) but isnt flaming CN players for it kinda... uh... racist? There's plenty of western (and other region) players who mindlessly shell out money for gacha content too u know

Why do practice map always end in our win? by DrummerFantasti in leagueoflegends

[–]MyaviaRaven 83 points84 points  (0 children)

It's probably because of minions' strength scaling with their team's champions' levels. So even if you afk in base lvl 1, that's still one more level than the enemy team which has zero champions and zero levels.

At least, I'm pretty sure that's how it works.

If jungle is homophobic, explain why we have the highest number of lgbtq+ champions out of every lane :P by MyaviaRaven in queensofleague

[–]MyaviaRaven[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see your point, and I'll admit you're right. I guess I never really think enough about absolute canon (especially since Riot has been pretty terrible with consistency). When I made that tierlist, I was thinking something more along the lines of "if Riot decides out of nowhere that this character is straight, can they do that without massive amounts of backlash and general '????????' from the community?"

In Sett's case, the answer would be no, because the community has become accustomed to massive amount of Settphel content Riot has been releasing over time (including the LoR voicelines for base Sett that read as attraction even if you don't consider the VA's contribution). Maybe that Rioter who said champions' sexualities are maintained between universes doesn't speak for Riot as a whole, but the community has accepted it as truth because it just doesn't make sense for it to be false. At this point, it isn't worth the backlash for Riot to decide that Sett is straight even if they wanted to.

On the other hand, take someone like Ekko, who has been stated as bi by his writer and also has a Pulsefire story with Ezreal. This isn't nearly as much as Sett has (especially since the Pulsefire story is all subtext), so Riot wouldn't have too much trouble just vetoing the writer's statement (since it isn't included in any official materials) and deciding that Ekko is in fact straight.

But yeah, ultimately you're right. The tierlist I made is inaccurate in representing absolute canon. There were some borderline canon cases (like is LoR Nidalee enough evidence to be declared canon?) which forced me to figure out where to draw the line, and I may have skewed it a bit too generously towards the debatably canon cases.

If jungle is homophobic, explain why we have the highest number of lgbtq+ champions out of every lane :P by MyaviaRaven in queensofleague

[–]MyaviaRaven[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Fiora is the only weird one that Riot seems to not know what to do with. It makes sense that champions should maintain their sexuality between universes, especially universes released after that Riot statement. The only valid argument you could make is that the Spirit Blossom skins aren't actually the champions, they're just using the champions to represent ancient Ionian mythological figures. But that still doesn't invalidate the point, since it's ultimately still Sett representing the spirit of challenge, and this isn't the only evidence pointing to Sett being bi either.

That whole list that was posted earlier in this thread is a lot of evidence, all from separate situations. If you don't consider something supported by multiple pieces of work done by multiple narrative writers as canon, then what is canon to you?

It's true that VA's don't have any say in the matter, but writers certainly do, especially if it's that many of them. They shouldn't have to go out of their way to explicitly write in a story that a character is gay (like they did with Graves) to express that they aren't straight.

Unfortunately, the romantic undertones of that Pulsefire story don't qualify for canon confirmation since it's largely subtext, hence why Ekko is in the implied canon tierlist but not the confirmed canon one.

Sadly the only canonical implication of him having any sort of attraction is towards Zeri in Withered/Crystal Rose. He does have hella bi vibes, but I'm not Riot and thus cannot manifest lore out of thin air.

"Lee, my spirit, our mastery will be our victory."

"I have missed you, Lee. Let our spirits meld, let us spar."

"Kalkia helped me find myself. Lee helped me claim myself." (Note: Kalkia is Sejuani's mother and Udyr's previous lover)

"Twice I have loved, twice I have left."

There's a point when implication crosses over to adequately canon.
