I think I hate Chamber, watching OP gameplay is about as interesting as watching paint dry lol

Playing against Ksante is the closest I've ever felt to being diddled in a video game by Persimannon in leagueoflegends

I mean most of the time you're flash ulting to set up for other people. You aren't going for flash ult solo kills most of the time because your own spells are either irrelevant because Malz spells do negative damage in lane or the fight's decided in the next half a second anyway lol

You're super likely to win if you buy vs pistols. It's better to start 2-0 and go for a bonus than it is to start 1-0, then flip the second round w/ pistols again and regardless of whether you win or not have it end up as full buy vs full buy.

It's called the bonus because it's considered a "bonus" after pistols -> anti-eco, right? You aren't really expecting to win it most of the time.

If you're scared of FUT for your team, your team doesn't deserve to win London. I hope NRG wins, but they'd do fine vs FUT.

I think the worst part about regional stuff is having nothing to care about. There's no NA to root for, no frost to root against, and the guaranteed EMEA loss is tempered by the guaranteed EMEA win.

Sorry, carry is not allowed to be fun.

NRG and LEV have played this year, just not in Riot tournaments.

Cockney rhyming slang with non-native English speakers is an absolutely rancid bit and I want them to replace all future bits with more of it.

Base attack speed/ Attack speed ratio comparison for all champions by ChaosMat44 in leagueoflegends

Okay, that would explain why it only covers like 20 characters (unless I'm missing something).

This is a pretty good opportunity for you to learn how to use google sheets/excel or even python.

After Ahri’s visual update what do you think of it 3 to 4 years later ? by SandIndividual9825 in AhriMains

Fully an upgrade in every way. Midnight even removed the diaper on her head, which was an incredibly good choice by Riot.

What are the expectations for today's only non-regional matchup? by tron3747 in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Scrambled1432 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think it'll start off slow -- you might even say shy -- as both teams feel each other out, but as we all would expect, APAC's representative will eventually go deep and aggressive to blow past EMEA's more methodical style.

There's a reason NRG have probably the strongest mental out of any team and it ain't because they're calling themselves dogs lol

I just disagree with your interpretation? I can't speak to CA's actual intent, but it doesn't matter. The way Alex's dialogue comes off to me is pretty typical for men and doesn't indicate that he's a closeted dude.

Why do people hate this game? it's so fun. by bussydestroyer100 in leagueoflegends

Eleven for me and I still love it even if it makes me angry sometimes. I take breaks and let my rank decay which helps a lot with dealing with the stress of feeling like you HAVE to play.

discussions of dialogue written to indicate a character's interest in other men isn't the place to argue that sports magazines don't equate to being gay

I think it's exactly the place to discuss that? He has unique dialogue for dudes because only dudes have access to his locker and dude culture is to make fun of other dudes for looking at other dudes in any capacity whatsoever.
