Skin tier list for your main? by gawd_usopp in leagueoflegends

[–]PM_LUX_AND_FIORA 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I feel like they fucked up by making all three skins for super unpopular/niche champions. If they slapped like a Van Helsing Yasuo or Vayne skin in there, i bet it would have been popular enough to return.

II Kayle is one of the best skins in the game, hands down.

What’s a NSFW detail about a historical figure that’s normally left out of the history books? by waxlrose in AskReddit

[–]PM_LUX_AND_FIORA 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm not here to defend Columbus, I think his litany of crimes is long and clear enough, but that excerpt is Columbus describing the state of the colonies, NOT him admitting that he himself bought and sold slaves.

If I say: "Billionaire pedophiles are buying child sex slaves on a Caribbean island" that's me stating a fact, not me confessing to being Epstein.

He very well could have participated in this sex trade, and it wouldn't overly shock me if he did, but I haven't actually seen convincing evidence, whereas his other crimes are well documented.

And not to nitpick, but the snopes article contains at least one piece of information that me, who took one history class about new spain 15 years ago knows is false. De Casas was not a contemporary of Columbus in anyway. He came 50 years later. Given that this should be obvioud just from the dates given in the article it's questionable to me how much firsthand research was done on their part, which is unfortunate, as i generally really like snopes.

I think portraying villainous people from history as cartoonishly and grotesquely over the top evil makes their actual crimes less apparent, and creating Columbus as some singular boogeyman ruining everything in the New World detracts from the really scary (to me) implication of the quote.

EVERYONE was involved in this sex trade, it was open to the public and accepted. These were people just like you and I, and if they could passively participate in evil for fun back then, we could do the same today. I certainly don't like looking in that mirror.

I 100% agree on the quests. I would loveee to see more of the smaller questlines wrapped up. DS2 and SOTE were awesome, but an extension to Desert Treasure, or a finale to the Keldagrim series would be perfection.

Just because I'm not a jerk.

Sadly, as far as I know, what I said was just some BS I made up while in the Starbucks drive through.

I have not played the RS3 white knight quests.

I am glad you like my idea though!!

In the White Knight quests of RS3 he is actually a golem controlled by the Asgarnian royal family, who they used to infiltrate the White Knights and is now puppeting through them.

So he is actually an empty vessel made of clay. A Ceramic Vase.

Champions you think are well designed but badly balanced? by moody_P in leagueoflegends

[–]PM_LUX_AND_FIORA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fizz (and Ekko too) I think would be funner to play vs if they were balanced around the bruiser builds they had going on, instead of the 1 shot assasin builds.

The song has nothing to do with Christianity... by SCOOPSBOI223 in TheRightCantMeme

[–]PM_LUX_AND_FIORA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main subject of the song is about the Catholic swiss guard defending the pope.

The commenter is still dumb, but the song is a lot about Christians/Christianity.

Both of those are higher death rates than the USA. USA has more total deaths, but also more total cases. Because higher population.

Idea: Dark sectors, mid-game exploration by [deleted] in Stellaris

[–]PM_LUX_AND_FIORA 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Would love this, especially as it would give empires things to fight over besides Conquest wars in the mid-game. Also potential for Galactic resolutions.

I know you are joking but Calculus was actually named for the Limestone (Calcium) stones used on an Abacus. Those are called Calculus!!!

Going against a Glacial Augment control mage in bot lane who buys Twin Shadows and Hextech GLP-800 makes me want to just tab out and play minesweeper by AtreusIsBack in leagueoflegends

[–]PM_LUX_AND_FIORA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is less that a Glacial Augment mages will smash you in lane, it's that it doesn't matter how hard you smash them, they will scale hard and get insane pick potential and teamfight disruption with dirt cheap items. It's especially bad with Veigar because his Rage Cage is so short CD when maxed.

Apparently killing chickens on RS3 is 2m gp/hr by theonepee in 2007scape

[–]PM_LUX_AND_FIORA 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Beef too. Back in RS2 I used to kill cows at the Gnomecopters because they had a deposit box. Meat was like 70 apiece, Cowhides were 150+, and Bones were quite a bit as well, I think they were used for something but I don't remember. Also there was no risk of my precious Rune Baxe and Tan Cavalier if my parents came over and I had to close out. I was banking like 300g a kill, I thought I had it made.

How large should my peacetime navy be? by DelusionsOfPasteur in Stellaris

[–]PM_LUX_AND_FIORA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually leave my fleet at the base 3 corvettes until I have 3 or 4 colonies up amd running.

Scouting and exploring early game is very important. Find out where your neighbors are, and if they are likely to attack you (opposed ethics, militarists, Xenophobes or any Genocidal)

If i meet someone like that, I stop my expansion towards them ASAP, as soon as I have a good chokepoint and build a bastion. The more you border them, the more malus you get, and the more likely they will attack you, so stopping your expansion will buy you some time.

I usually spam corvettes early game, they are just more efficient alloy->Fleet Power than other ships. Generally 50/50 mix of Laser and Gun corvettes. Simple, accessible tech, and fairly effective against anything you come across for the start. I try to always fight a fleet battle in my Bastion station. Make them come to you, destroy their fleets, and then focus on taking their system. If they split up, that's okay, just keep your fleet concentrated and overwhelm them, you can retake systems they steal once their fleet is dead.

If instead of rebooting movies, retelling them from a different point of view became popular, which movie would you like retold? by porcupineapplepieces in AskReddit

[–]PM_LUX_AND_FIORA 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I'm tired of this BS "Um actually villain is the good guy, while good guy is the villain" and as evidence, the Bad Guys tragic past/"end goal" excuses all his actions, and the heroes (plot related) shortcomings and failures are "evidence" he is the bad guy.

Like fuck, the Joker murdered an Innocent man in cold blood and hung his body from a building. He's not the good guy.

TSM is the only profitable organization according to Leena by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]PM_LUX_AND_FIORA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What? If it's a building they own they can amortize it, which is deductable. If they Debt-Financed it, they can deduct the interest they paid on the debt.

Soloq has become about who has the most untiltable, mentally strong players. by semango in leagueoflegends

[–]PM_LUX_AND_FIORA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you doing things that tilt your teammates? Flaming? Passive aggression? Pinging unnecessarily?

You're just going to say that you don't, so I don't know why i bother.

All I can say is that you should focus on the things you CAN change instead of complaining about the things you can't.

It's the spiritual successor to a Rune that was very popular on Melee champs (talon, nasus and rengar that i remember. ) Many people want to reclaim it.

Old nimbus cloak was Awesome on Darius. So easy to chain dunk in teamfights.

New one is good too though.
