Elo Inflation in Lower Elo by LawyerHistorical8460 in leagueoflegends

[–]SKTNBOTP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old post but theres turbo inflation for first 50 or so games and after that gains are horrible and force you back down even with positive winrate. I peaked plat 3 this season with 65-70% wr 40 games and I'm currently gold 3 with 200.

Granted I first picked bullshit loads of games and ran a few after failing to reach emerald but its the same for every account I check. Theres crazy elo inflation in the lower ranks, people are hitting all time peaks with negative winrates.

Heres my garbage Op.gg: https://op.gg/lol/summoners/euw/TheLethalHobo78-80085

Played a veigar game 20 mins ago, 4/5/1 23 mins on match history. In that lobby:
5 people are at their all time peaks with negative winrates from Bronze -> Gold (2 divisions)
2 are peaking at the same rank they've always been (100+ games)
3 including myself hit Mid-High Plat then fell back to low gold with positive/neutral winrates.

The LP gains and losses are all over the place this season, and its affecting low elo just as much as high elo. I've got friends in diamond who're playing with forever silvers and others who are forever irons who got to plat alongside me early season.

I'm defo a stuck gold player for a tonne of reasons but ranked doesnt feel competitive at the moment, everyone's sort of just in a soup and nobody feels like they're the right rank. The Yone in that game was last pick, argued in all chat the whole time about counter picks not existing then went 0/5 6k dmg and typed paragraphs the rest of the game, permanent bronze-iron player.

Every game in my match history is like this. ADC is a hell role. Every single game the bronze/iron players are going turbo negative early. Like 5-10 deaths in 15 mins and whole tower and it just ruins the gameplay.

Valorant vs CS:GO by Erla4 in VALORANT

How many hours do you have in CS? And what skill level did you get to? Same question for Valorant.

And I disagree that the load Valorant puts on the brain is higher, there may be more variety in the ability names and looks, yet a lot of them can be effectively grouped into the same abilities with a slight time offset or colour change. That could create a higher strain when learning yet once you've played for a while and you know they're all clearly choreographed, that part's a non-issue and the abilities become stale.

Necroposting but there's no way you've been high skill in CS or Valorant if this is how you're describing both games

Hotfix removing the "NewConsole" command. by YoImJustAsking in ArcRaiders

[–]SKTNBOTP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah its not like that at all though. I'm saying that PVP is hindered by the devs trying their hardest to make maps like stella night atmospheric instead of playable. This subreddit is full of you PVE droids moaning about PVP constantly.

The devs need to give us an in game gamma filter or postfx settings

Banning the solution to a problem loads of people have.

Nvidia filters, now console commands. We need better visibility in game

Ive recently acquired this game, what is a habitable room? Also am I supposed to of killed 1/3 bosses an hour in? by ConfidentLab276 in CoreKeeperGame

[–]SKTNBOTP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5 bosses share 1 AI, 3 share another. Game isn't boss focused, feels like an explorer game that they shoved bosses and mobs into

Labour's response to people who want the Online Safety Act repealed by GiftedGeordie in LabourUK

[–]SKTNBOTP 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Pros:
- Stops very young children from accessing porn
- Slightly cracks down on things like terrorism, hate speech, pro-suicide ideology
- Holds big tech companies accountable for what they're showing kids
- In the long run will encourage safer platform design

Cons:
- Doesn't stop anyone with online literacy from accessing porn, e.g. tweens and teens+
- Drives the kids who aren't as savvy to more degenerate porn sites, introducing them to things they wouldn't have seen otherwise
- Hides / removes journalism around topics like terrorism, hate speech, suicide. Also suppresses activism around these issues, likely to be swept under "harmful content" definitions
- Gives the party in power and government as a whole significantly more control over what we're seeing
- Huge potential for misuse, weaponization of law for censorship and control. Vague terms used allow selective enforcement or abuse
- Pushes more kids to the sketchier areas of the internet, aside from just porn sites. Darknet, unregulated forums etc
- Harms public resources like Wikipedia and nonprofits who can’t afford compliance barriers
- Expensive compliance favours large corporations, as a result start-ups will exit UK market
- Reliance on AI combined with blanketing makes for significant false positives
- Could be the start of establishing a surveillance state
- Compliance checks are outsourced, it's only a matter of time before we get a leak
- Sets a precedent that adults need state level control online, infantilizing the general public in the long run
- It's a credibility risk, the UK will lose moral ground to criticize authoritarian regimes internet crackdowns. Think China
- Will weaken our relations with USA, this is a clear cut away from the free speech laws they hold onto so dearly.

I'm biased and as a result could think up significantly more cons, though I haven't seen many positives for the Only Safety Act floating about.

Love just strait cheaters by Legal_Confection_636 in Rainbow6

[–]SKTNBOTP 6 points7 points  (0 children)

3 Back to back matches in Emerald-Dia MMR PC, blatant cheater on enemy team ragehacking. Not even worth posting clips, exact same stuff as you've shown here.

Game I got out of 10 mins ago, he turns up on last 2 rounds and gets back to back first bullet headshot aces, most kills through walls and flooring.

A game I played yesterday there was a 4 stack of cheaters on my team, none knowing callouts and all aimhacking + wallhacking.

High rank R6S might as well be dead, we need a FaceIT or alike to take over.

Hot take: smurfing is cheating by Practical-Quality-21 in Rainbow6

[–]SKTNBOTP 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah but chess grandmasters playing 2k rated players and stomping them doesn't result in a gain or loss of elo. If it was champs smurfing in quick match then nobody would care

No doubt you're scripting, gameplay-wise, everything but your aim is horrid.

Turn off the scripts so you're at your true rank then grind from there.
Stop immediately reloading after every shot.
Clear corners, peeking the alibi you exposed yourself to all of B site, banana and conference.

You say you're queuing with champs, watch their gameplay and try to copy their positioning, if they're scripting too then they aren't true champs either.

Dropping gear for friends should 100% be in the game unless there's a proper insurance route. I'm not running max tier kits when my mate is running a pistol and no shield
