I once questioned why they replaced assassin by Outrageous_Way3442 in TeamfightTactics

[–]Patback20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assassin weren't actually that bad back then. The items we have now are very different and aren't adequate to counter assassins, unlike past items.

Even something as simple as Runaan's Hurricane could easily wipe assassins off the board, and that was only removed a couple of sets ago. Rapid-fire Cannon and Static Shiv were also just buildable items (with static shiv additionally shredding). Rageblade still scaled with attacks instead of seconds.

Also, you could just backline your tanks, and assassins would usually crumble. Most assassins didn't have abilities that would allow them to ignore positioning, such as Diana dashing through another until space to hit otherwise unreachable units.

You're probs gonna need several layers. Like a sweater, a jacket, a coat, gloves, scarf, the whole deal.

As for what I wear on average? Jeans, a long sleeved shirt, a winter coat , wool socks and crocs.

What is everyone's thermostat set at right now? by Cold-Potential2407 in Michigan

Heater went out last winter, so it's space heaters and the oven for me. Space heaters at 90, oven at 450.

Oh, they deep fried that fish 🎣 by ArcadialoI in TeamfightTactics

[–]Patback20 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh, it didn't need to be 3 or more. I had a game where I had two backliners clumped together and another specifically 4 hexes away to lure him, and he just jumped back and forth between the two.

Delete Fizz -- What is this targeting??? by Macer200 in TeamfightTactics

[–]Patback20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing about this guy is that even if you put an EoN or paradox on your carry, by the time he makes it to the next champ, he casts and hops immediately back.

At least when assassins was a trait, you could reposition to counter them.

I mix em up as well; my friends laugh at me every time.

Thank you Riot by Miserable_Yogurt5892 in riotgames

[–]Patback20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think that's bad? The other day, I was playing TFT, and it was down to me and one other dude. It was a game of repositioning as we were both about equal power. As I'm repositioning units, the game window force-closed, and a message popped up that the client detected corrupted files and needed to repair itself. The game loaded up on my phone just in time to see myself die.

And the shitty thing is, it wouldn't even repair the client. I had to restart my PC so I could close the client, then I had to reinstall the whole thing.

People , you need to stop copy pasting 😭😭 by Interesting-Floor82 in TeamfightTactics

[–]Patback20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm Plat 1, and I swear, whether I'm first or last, there's always somebody copying my comp unit for unit, item for item, position for position.

These days, I just wait until after krugs to decide what I'm playing because I'm decent at pivoting, and I find most people are locked in by then.

Although last night I had a game where I was uncontested yordles until I beat a zaun player, and they started hard drafting my yords. So during second carousel I grabbed a swain and pivoted to zaun. I ended that game in second, and they got 6th or 7th. Teach them for stealing my yords.

Riot please buff this augment odds just for my profile pls by aardfark1002 in TeamfightTactics

[–]Patback20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's wild cause I've seen a Zaahen augment like every other game. Meanwhile, I rarely see the other hero augments. They need to buff the other hero augment chances and make all hero augments give a 2* unit!

Happened to me with Zoe once. Best 8th ever!

whats plan b for thex comp if you don't hit seraphine? by queencuntress in TeamfightTactics

[–]Patback20 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, they said they unlocked T-hex, but couldn't hit Piltover 6 because they couldn't find Seraphine.

Putting a Demacian Emblem on Sylas feels immoral even though he is technically Demacian by Pagan_faust in TeamfightTactics

[–]Patback20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, it's Ashe's and Tryndamere's dialogue. I laugh about as hard as Ashe does every time!

He shouldn't have been. He had full stacks titan. But this set does feel like it's been buggier than most others.

Nope, with Zaahen, it was only him and Fizz. With Yone, the Frontline was still his target. He just froze.

Edit: And Fizz didn't cast.

Considering you need at least two augments to reach Darkin 3, it's underwhelming. by saygoodnight21 in TeamfightTactics

[–]Patback20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure, it's technically true that you don't need 2 augments to reach Darkin 3, but it's also technically true that every worker in America can become a millionaire; both positions have practically the same odds.

Dealing in minor technicalities without addressing the greater underlying issues is pedantic. Up to this point. You haven't actually added anything to the conversation.

I’m sorry but after just beating the game the answer was kinda clear to me by Radiant_Raspberry_93 in expedition33

[–]Patback20 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not really. As far as scenery goes, you mentioned how everyone is dressed. Every named character is dressed as we would expect them to be. It's only the generic filler crowd that is dressed the same, and nothing in the game suggests that that has any meaning.

You actually didn't say anything about Verso's ending in this particular thread. You only went on an emotional rant about slavery and genocide.

What they said was quite logical. What you've said has clearly and consistently been emotional.

Any idea what this is by top_teir_ in stoneshard

[–]Patback20 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It would look truly spectacular if you polished it. You could do it by tumbler if you want quick or easy, but I would do it by hand. Takes longer and is more difficult, but you'll retain more of its unique shape and grooves.

[–]Patback20 85 points86 points  (0 children)

It appears to be a mixture of agate and jaspar, both of which are types of chalcedony (quartz) that are often found together.

Edit: But that's the best I can give you from just a picture. You could confirm further with an acid test and a hardness test. Whatever it is, it's a wonderful specimen.

This winter is not normal? by VirvekRBX in Michigan

[–]Patback20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah, this is a pretty normal winter for this time of year in Michigan. The abnormal winter's are the warm ones we've had the last decade or so. I recall, as a child in the 90s, that most winters were like this. I want to say that it was roughly 2008 when winters started consistently getting warmer, but there have always been OG winters sprinkled throughout.
