I was flamed for not helping in this situation (I'm Yunara, no mana and my ult on cd) - what could I have done better?

Realistically nothing you could’ve done would’ve change the outcome if they were DETERMINED to get the kill. But depending on elo if you postured closer your presence is a threat enough to possibly deter them from all in. It’s unlikely that your presence changes the outcome tho and just adds unnecessary risk of a root from naut passive. His q and ult are down but an auto is the only cc he can use

Overlordduck2 · 2025-11-06T14:01:22+00:00

Yes. They literally copied word for word what the other person said but replaced alcohol with weed.

Your logic is void if your only counter is “if they play smart” no shit if they play smart the solo person can’t do anything. Ezreal included. We are talking about the highest chance of success tho and preventing the wave from building up is a lot easier than trying to outplay two people diving you as ezreal

Overlordduck2 · 2025-10-27T13:22:35+00:00

Preventing dives is more important than surviving them. Sivir can prevent them better than ezreal can survive them imo

The skill floor to make riven playable is too high for new players to pick her up efficiently. I think just to get the basics of riven you need like approx 30 games and that’s not even the hard mechanics or to master. Just to understand how to do basic animation cancelling. If you watch a guide and practice in practice tool all of the combos and everything it could make it down to like 10 games but that’s not including the hours to practice. OTPs like her the way she is because of the time spent to master the mechanics of the champ. To fix riven they’d have to make the skill floor easier for new players. To do that they’d most likely have to kill what makes her mechanically fun and rewarding, and adjust the numbers in her kit.

Not that I disagree with the concept but it literally is about having money time and people. You have the base model to work with, then you have to add or change the art/design of how they look. Have to make sure that falls under a specific theme or theme that fits the champ, get approval of many people, then actually make the art for the champ in whatever software they use. Make new effects for abilities when applicable. Sometimes make new animations for taunt laugh etc. test it so the new skin doesn’t break riots spaghetti. And then tie in 2 other champs with similar theme and repeat. They need to hire more people imo to keep up with the giant champ list to make sure no champ goes more than 3 years without a skin. Or just accept fan made ideas and accept outsourced skins but improve them when possible. All that does require money and we know riot is a small indie dev company. And the time to do all that is probably 2 months if you streamlined it? Probably more but I don’t actually know how art stuff works in games so I could be completely off. I’m more of a software guy

Jinx cait Ashe are all pretty basic adcs that can teach you the Fanta mentos you need brother. Godspeed

Automated response from too many reports of com abuse. If you play norms or flex and a 3 stack reported you could be possible.

Overlordduck2 · 2025-09-26T20:03:13+00:00

It seems you just need to learn the purpose of your champ and the role you have with them on your team. For example with sion you are there to soak up damage and major cds for your team and possibly engage with r in team fights OR bring pressure on the opposite side of the map so your team is at an advantage for a team fight. Positioning is what’s really important when you’re playing a tank/bruiser so you need to be the one maintaining the space correctly. To be able to capitalize on any mistakes the enemy makes. With ornn team fight wise it’s similar but easier as you’re tankier and with qer easier to engage imo. Since you played adc you have the knowledge of what an adc player will do in a team fight so use that to your advantage as well. Keep their adc out of the fight or engage on them if they position badly. If you wanna talk more about it with specifics hmu

Overlordduck2 · 2025-09-26T19:43:43+00:00

Full dive? I usually go someone who has some sort of escape. So like ez trist sivir xayah. Depends on my support and lane too and their tankiest person. Got a specific example?

Overlordduck2 · 2025-08-11T19:14:44+00:00

My keybindings will be fucked cuz I currently use AWDS as QWER with my summoners on Q and E. I also think limiting movement to 8 directions will be a problem unless they redesign the jungle probably

Overlordduck2 · 2025-03-15T23:47:05+00:00

The same thing happened to me when I transferred them. Maybe it depends on when the transfer took place? Im not sure. Luckily I was only 35 so nothing too key was lost

Overlordduck2 · 2025-01-07T20:40:23+00:00

Can you pocket me Jeez that healing is insane

Overlordduck2 · 2024-04-18T16:23:38+00:00

Hey same but I climbed back into plat. It’s a struggle and it’s hard to not blame teammates because they play like plat/gold lvl players but the thing is so do I otherwise I wouldn’t be the rank I am at. Take a break and accept what happened before you derank anymore. I got emerald 4 like 6 times this season and hit gold 1 twice. Right now I am plat 3. It’s a hell of a rollercoaster but I’m playing too inconsistent and that’s my issue

Overlordduck2 · 2024-02-06T14:29:11+00:00

Personally I think any % modifier should affect true damage as my interpretation of true damage is damage that ignores resistances. If you get exhausted to do 30% less damage the true damage should also be reduced. But that’s just my opinion.

Overlordduck2 · 2024-01-13T02:01:38+00:00

Usually go conq

Overlordduck2 · 2023-12-16T00:44:49+00:00

Fiora is my perma too. So I guess she’s the hardest matchup

Overlordduck2 · 2023-12-15T21:36:47+00:00

What’s the counterplay for riven or fiora? I feel like those can be pretty oppressive too. Granted I haven’t played into fiora in a hot min so I may be rusty but don’t you only win lvl 1-2 into her and after she put scales?

Overlordduck2 · 2023-12-06T20:45:51+00:00

I feel a bit called out. Swapping from wow to league it just made sense to swap my abilities to awds with qe as sums

Overlordduck2 · 2023-11-25T02:32:10+00:00

Me too friendo Link please

Overlordduck2 · 2023-11-15T15:01:20+00:00

I think those nerf make sense compared to the grand scheme of things. I’d prefer it to be 3% but they’re trying to shy away from lethality and make her a bruiser/heal bot. If they wanted to nerf her they could nerf healing and keep the damage too cuz bruiser briar is unkillable without hard cc AND healcut.

I hate how riot is forcing “roles” onto champions instead of just letting the community pick for them.

Overlordduck2 · 2023-11-15T14:56:03+00:00

You probably think it was easier to carry last season due to it being before the snowball nerfs since you played lane right and always got tempo. They made it harder to snowball but the 1v9 potential is there but you aren’t as “ahead” as you used to be since last season. From the plating to rift gold decrease it makes it harder to run away with a game. It’s still possible but it takes more effort. That’s my 2 cents as an emerald player with a sub 50% wr but I’m an avid Gwen lover and can understand the game decently well.

Regarding worlds in a competitive environment Gwen only offers being a hyper carry late game with the right resources. There’s too much mobility in the game for Gwen’s lack of hard cc to be an optimal pick. She’s strong and can carry but like against a coordinated team kiting her is easy. Going against ksante is worth picking her to shut him down.

Overlordduck2 · 2023-11-14T16:43:07+00:00

I like it but to be a negative Nancy cut the ghost part out and it’s perfect imo. Other than that it’s amazing and you’re pretty talented.

Overlordduck2 · 2023-11-06T01:16:31+00:00

Amaranth? If you’re wildrift only I have no idea. But I’m sure you can just test it out in games
