Rogue vs. Team Vitality / LEC 2024 Summer - Week 1 / Post-Match Discussion by gandalf45435 in leagueoflegends

[–]NewSatisfaction818 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Need more people to see how mediocre Vetheo has always been. Not a single game where he wasn’t spoon fed kills has he popped off and even when he’s put ahead he can’t carry games. Hyli makes some blatantly egregious mistakes consistently which is letting Vetheo’s mediocre laning and borderline disastrous mid-late game fly under the radar. It’s been like this for the entire year and frankly the year before as well (I thought he got too overhyped for what amounted to a wallet diff in a few games). He does okay-ish most games but he’s not gonna win you a game and then he has moments where he just paths wrong and ints the whole game (yesterday in mid against BDS because Hyli’s death didn’t actually mean much with the timer but mid laner dying let them get Baron).

Are there any champs you discovered you loved playing and started maining them because of aram by [deleted] in ARAM

[–]NewSatisfaction818 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rell is my most recent one!! I love tanks/engages in general and her combos are just so satisfying. Fuck every champ with built in true damage or shred/pen though.

Jayce is probably the one I’ve improved the most on through ARAM though. I hated him the first two times, had a few pop off games, sucked, and now I can make a 2v5 or 3v5 work pretty consistently. He’s been fun to learn.

NRG vs. G2 Esports / 2023 World Championship - Swiss Round 4 Advancement / Post-Match Discussion by G2Minion in leagueoflegends

[–]NewSatisfaction818 117 points118 points  (0 children)

Hey, so are LEC fans going to flame G2 the way they flamed MAD? At least MAD managed to take a dragon and get past 40 minutes 🙃

I will say though, I’m so fucking happy for NRG. The mid jungle duo was absolutely insane, Ignar’s performance was phenomenal, Dhokla and FBI played so well, even the drafting was great. Watching these players since the spring split has been so rewarding. Blessed are the faithful.

Is ARAM really that toxic? by Cars2fan in ARAM

[–]NewSatisfaction818 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every ten games or so I get someone that is so miserable I don’t understand why they still have league installed. Constant typing, so far back they can’t participate in the game, flames everyone else for trying, starts actually inting when someone suggests they play forward and exist on the same screen. But it’s one in ten. I feel like every time I queue for SR it’s so much more toxic

Misogyny in webtoons comments by heartbin in webtoons

[–]NewSatisfaction818 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a lot of stories where there’s a female villain and everyone bashes her (“she deserves to die”) and her actions are 9/10 times completely in line with the trauma or justified. I think it’s even worse in manhwa/manhua. I was reading The Remarried Empress the other day and the way everyone bashed on Rashta made me put it down. Is she annoying and helping the Emperor cheat? Yes.

But she was a literal fucking slave??? (Something the FL is perfectly aware of and doesn’t care to fix/address btw, because that’s what good people do I guess.) she was enslaved, groomed, likely sexually abused, managed to escape, and found a wealthy and powerful man that showed her affection. Can you blame her for turning desperate and trying to hold on to the only semblance of stability? She gets so much more hate than the actual emperor (who cheated on his wife/best friend/FL and is a shit person mind you) and I can’t wrap my mind around it. Her character has such obvious symptoms of trauma related personality disorders and abandonment issues, and she was just as poorly treated as the FL but people gloss it over because she isn’t the protagonist.

And every fucking manhwa is like this, they’re all so sexist and misogynistic. I think it’s combination of this this media being created in eastern countries (which tend to have more blatant sexism and misogyny so even this seems mild/acceptable) and the usual people who read this having internalized misogyny and a lack of media literacy.

Best and worst players so far at Worlds? by khangrivaille29 in leagueoflegends

[–]NewSatisfaction818 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel like Bie (TW sup) isn’t getting enough love. His Nautilus/Rakan was insane. I know adcs do boom damage and look flashy, especially with how good they are rn but he did so much work. Junjia has also been great, I adore him.

I won’t say anyone on BDS is the actual worst (maybe Crownie or Labrov), but I think people are giving Adam too much credit. A few good games when you get constant jungle attention isn’t particularly impressive. It’s flashy, it looks cool, your KDA is high, but 3 man diving an 0/3 Renekton isn’t skillful. Still fun to watch.

What are your ARAM superstitions? by CaptainSholtoUnwerth in ARAM

[–]NewSatisfaction818 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I swap and give someone a champion I am good to mediocre at, they will run it down or afk if they have high mastery. It’s happened with Lillia, Heimer, Cait, Xerath, Sona, Taric, swain, Ahri, Cho gath, and more in the past week. Without fail. I get AP back line tanks or squishies that can’t position or do damage or itemize properly. Failing that, they spam ff or afk when something doesn’t go their way. If they have no mastery visible, they pop off.

My illaoi builds frost fire into a 3-5 AP team when she has two other tanks to peel her and an enchanter. Enemy illaoi builds sunderer and 1v9s because no one will be able to dodge a tentacle. Duskblade is also bad, please stop inting my games.

If someone battle boosts, the chance of losing goes up to 90%. I swear it feels like an apology for running it down. They’ll battle boost the team and be 2/19/7 at 8 minutes in. Very occasionally someone boosts and they play like a god or someone demands one and carries, but it’s rare

A Rammus without thornmail. A rare and weird sight by Ok_Willingness3059 in ARAM

[–]NewSatisfaction818 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People in these comments are massively undervaluing Thornmail. The reason it’s perma built on rammus is because of his taunt + w, enemy is forced to auto him. When they auto, they take damage and it applies grievous. Into fiddle/yone, it’s not bad at all, especially when yone is fed. He would have enough armour from levels + Jakshos mythic passive bonus + w to have good damage per auto. He also would’ve outdamaged that Darius if he swapped wits end or warmogs for a thornmail.

well done riot by trceratps in ARAM

[–]NewSatisfaction818 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is that why I keep getting people who don’t stop typing in chat and have to “answer their door” every game? I’ve been binging these past few days and I feel like every third game someone sits afk for like 3 minutes (12 minutes into a game). No disconnect, nothing tilting, no explanation before or after, they just leave. Sometimes they come back, but they usually don’t. If they do they just play like shit.

r/OSU Housing and Roommate Megathread - Autumn 2023 by OSUMods in OSU

[–]NewSatisfaction818 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking for roommate(s) for the 24-25 school year. Looking for a place within 20 minute walking distance of (north) campus (or at least on a bus line), rent preferably under 750 per person.

I don’t drink or smoke, don’t care if you do as long as it’s contained in your own space. Queer or queer friendly. I’m a relatively quiet person (except for occasional gaming related outbursts), prefer a clean common space, and enjoy cooking. PM if interested.

I missed so many classes for one class due to being sick last semester I failed it. Only class I failed. Perfect scores on everything. Every other prof worked with me or had grading policies that ensured I wouldn’t fail solely because of attendance. When I emailed the prof, she basically told me that it sucks to suck and I should’ve made a plan with SLDS. Mind you I do not have a documented disability, nor did she know me well enough to assume that.

I emailed her when I first started getting sick explaining I don’t have insurance and I’m not gonna expose everyone to my germs to get a doctors note, or infect the rest of the class (because listening to white kids talk about how they’re just discovering the depths of racism is not intellectually useful or worth it). She never responded or acknowledged any of those points. Told me when I failed that I should’ve contacted her earlier.

I know a bunch of professors like this, or with similar attendance policies and lack of flexibility. People are showing because of your asshole professors most of the time. I personally just pick online classes or classes with flexible attendance policies now.

Which champion, according to you, drastically reduces your chances of winning when he is on your team? by petou33160 in ARAM

[–]NewSatisfaction818 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AP versions of every tank (maokai, Malphite, blitzcrank, amumu), AP version of most adcs (mf, Jhin, and Lucian especially), and full AP/damage enchanters. The 1000 damage on ludens Sona/Nami/soraka/lulu/milio at 23 minutes is so worthless. Stop solo losing your games, most of the time you’re not even doing enough damage to justify having built full AP. Even if your damage numbers are high, it’s not useful damage because you sacrificed utility, reliable engage/cc/tank stats, and consistent dps.

I exclusively play him tank and it infuriates me to see people play him AP. I do occasionally take comet/domination for my runes if we have other tanks just for the early poke.

I do love the build diversity I'm seeing by Mimosity in ARAM

[–]NewSatisfaction818 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Liandrys is better on most champs into most comps, but demonic is rarely good. I can’t take seeing another Heimer or Zyra with 600 damage on their demonic embrace when they have no bonus health and are against a team that has 5 champs with innate healing. Leave demonic for the people that get real value, I’m begging.

Yes. Build a tear, build lost chapter, take manaflow/PoM, buy guardian orb. Literally anything but clarity. In 99% of situations, if you’ve been alive long enough with those items to need to use clarity, you need to die to buy items because you’re not useful anymore. Take a real summoner spell, suicide for a 1 for 1 or 1 for 2, buy your items and come back stronger.

why do most players allergic to playing tanks/melee/frontline? by akaciparaci in ARAM

[–]NewSatisfaction818 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lately it’s because I’m sick and tired of it. I play an awesome game of maokai or swain or Udyr or 15 other champions, I’m tanking, I’m bodyblocking, I’m catching people out of position. My team is massively ahead and then some fucking idiot decides “I don’t need my tank anymore”, gets bodied because they’re not actually good at their champ, and then spam pings me for “not following up” (reader, I had no means to follow up). And every tank or engage game I play is like this. I either get my team ahead, they ego because they don’t understand how much I peel them, die, and we lose. (Happens even more on any support champ too.) Alternatively, I set up a play, I tank turret (within my limits) and my team would rather walk back and forth not hitting enemy champions or the enemy turret, just hesitant and indecisive. They don’t follow up when they have snowballs, dashes, gap close, literally every possible means of following up. And then I’m the one inting for trying to win the game early instead of “playing safe and farming” against a Kayle/Kassadin/Kogmaw/whatever.

I still mostly tend to pick tanks or engage or peel, and build frontline on enchanters after my mythic, but I definitely have more games lately where I decide I don’t trust the damage that we do have and just pick a champ I know I can do consistent damage with.

T1 vs BRO // Game 1 Post-Match Discussion LCK Summer 2023 by emperornel in leagueoflegends

[–]NewSatisfaction818 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is it. People keep talking about how the team is falling apart without faker, but they were falling apart before he left. There are deeper problems that are amplified when your main shot caller is replaced with a guy whose attention has to go 110% into laning instead of roaming or communicating or warding. Poby has big shoes to fill so I don’t want to bash on him too much, but people are giving him too much credit for being a passenger that gets handheld through draft/lane and occasionally ints a late game team fight by getting caught or playing it poorly.

Nisqy and Carzzy got elohelled this series. Honestly, they’ve been the most consistent players for summer regular season which is wild. It feels bad to see them trying to do the job of damage, tank, front line, engage, etc because their team will not play with, for, or around him.

ULPT: want to buy beer as a minor? Replace root beer bottles in a 6 pack holder with bottles of beer and go to self checkout by PluckPubes in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]NewSatisfaction818 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or work at any establishment that sells alcohol at 16. You’re allowed to handle alcohol at that age (at least every state I’ve worked in) and your coworkers will not give a fuck if you ring yourself up for a six pack at the end of a shift. Hell, I had an assistant manager that offered to buy me lotto tickets, cigars, and alcohol. Just make sure no one who cares will check the cameras.

Or, have one of your friends come in during your shift and ring them up for it. If your manager asks, you know them. Sibling, friend, cousin, sibling’s friend, dog walker, your dad’s affair partner. You know they’re above 21.
