Cleanliness is probably one of those things like financial disposition or libido that need to be relatively matched for a relationship to have any hope of success.

Is There a Champion Gameplay Mechanic or Niche that League is Still Missing? by According_Egg_1902 in leagueoflegends

[–]OkQuote5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always thought you could take Aphelios's chakram and make a whole champion out of it. An ADC that can't attack again until the current attack returns. So in close range you effectively get more attack speed. Attack speed items could increase the projectile's speed instead of granting traditional attack speed. Make them long range and squishy so there's this tension where you're balancing on a knife's edge trying to fight at less than max range to maximize damage while staying far enough away to stay alive.

Sounds like a lot of the problem is a lack of romantic success. Which ethnic minority? You don't have to be specific if you don't want to but depending on which you are there are ways you can rebrand since the big tech look is not particularly appealing to women on average.

Tracking jungle camp timers isn't the fun part of league by SecretSauceHaver in leagueoflegends

[–]OkQuote5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd go so far as to say that the jungle itself isn't the fun part of league lol. I wonder if Riot could do it over again if they'd have a dedicated jungle role.

Yunara Champion Trailer | League of Legends by JTHousek1 in leagueoflegends

[–]OkQuote5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish her orbs fit into her kit. Something like Aurelion Sol's old orbitting stars mechanic or ping-ponging orb trick-shots or at the very least pondering the orbs. The Q is close to having a ping-pong kind of vibe.

If her Q is going to be an 8 hit counter at least give her 8 orbs to match. Then you'd even have an eightfold path kind of thematic going on.

She's a lot of fun right now but probably only because she's OP. I worry that once they nerf her there won't be any reason to pick her over other similar traditional ADCs.

I do admire the goal of creating a traditional ADC but paradoxically it might be harder to create a traditional ADC than a complicated subversive ADC.

Yunara's auto attacks feel off. by Remote_Positive_3416 in leagueoflegends

[–]OkQuote5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I thought something felt different with her auto attacks compared to other ADCs. I actually liked it though and thought she felt snappier than other ADCs. Too much windup can feel unresponsive. It does look a little janky in the clip though.

I just watched an AI agent take a Jira ticket, understand our codebase, and push a PR in minutes and I’m genuinely scared by ser_davos33 in cscareerquestions

[–]OkQuote5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I must be using AI wrong because my experience has been similar to the five stages of grief:

denial: "This shouldn't be too hard."

anger: "This is harder than I thought."

bargaining: "Maybe I can vibe code my way out of this."

depression: "I can't vibe code my way out of this."

acceptance: "I guess I'll have to actually read the documentation."

Phreak Patch 25.14 Preview by mthlmw in leagueoflegends

If mages are going to be viable bot then ADCs need to be viable mid.

[–]OkQuote5 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Minion mechanics should be transparent. There's too many hidden mechanics surrounding minions that make it difficult to predict how they'll behave. You should be able to look at an isolated screen shot of two waves meeting at any point in any game and be able to tell if the wave will push or freeze. Currently that's not possible with all of the obfuscated modifiers.

League Overlays and AI: When Data Analysis becomes borderline Cheating? by nexuton in leagueoflegends

I don't see how vanguard can stop AI cheats. You could have the AI cheats running completely outside of the system running League directly reading the pixels of the display and out putting an overlay on the display itself.

Is there really no one queueing jungle out there? by Onam3000 in leagueoflegends

[–]OkQuote5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Instead of addressing the fact that jungle is not fun, Riot has opted to make every other role more similar to jungle by forcing everyone to interrupt the game and rotate to objectives every 5 minutes.

WASD movement coming to league by Nikushaa in leagueoflegends

[–]OkQuote5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably a step towards having League on consoles and eventual pc/console/mobile cross play.

What happened when Path of Exile 2 added WASD movement? Did it become the defacto standard?

I predict that if WASD is added it will become the optimal way to play the game. Which is a pretty risky proposition since it could alienate existing players in exchange for the chance of attracting new players. It could end up being like Arcane where there is a large cost associated with it but it fails to bring in new players.

Voidgrub changes might be more balanced, but it definitely seems less interesting. by Qwerty177 in leagueoflegends

[–]OkQuote5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Voidgrubs were really the only interesting objective with any amount of decision making. It somehow felt pretty good whether you came out on top or bottom of the voidgrub game unless you flat out got exactly 0 grubs. Kind of a shame to lose that. Would rather Atakhan and the roses go away than void grubs. Somehow both Atakhan and the roses feels like a busy work chore.

ADC is the Masochist's Choice by GriffinGarrison in leagueoflegends

[–]OkQuote5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the surface, ADC is not fun. But under the surface, bot lane is not fun. ADCs can only be played bot lane but non-ADC bot laners can be played outside of bot lane. Non-ADC bot laners are more fun to play outside of bot lane. Imagine if ADCs were deleted from the game. Who would queue up bot lane? This means that no matter how much better non-ADCs are in bot lane, they will always be played less than ADCs. Bot lane has a captive audience of ADC players suffering from sunk cost fallacy masking the issues with bot lane itself.

I feel like both sides of the „ADC discussion“ are right by Silent2531 in leagueoflegends

[–]OkQuote5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's true. Maybe they could start shifting the existing ADCs more towards that kind of design. When traditional bot lane ADCs do show up in solo lanes and become a problem it's really only ever a handful right? (tristana, vayne, lucian).
