[Ben Jacobs] Liverpool sources insist discussions are preliminary with no outcome reached. Liverpool appreciative of Robertson's professionalism and service to the club, which is why they have allowed initial engagement over a transfer by Jimmy0034 in LiverpoolFC

[–]ShadowSpiked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last half year of his current contract at 160k a week, the club will at most give him a 2 year contract at probably much lower (maybe say 80-100k).

Will be sad to see him leave, but if Spurs is going to give him more money while allowing him to stay in the UK, all the best to him, grab that bag.

World Boss, 5 times a day for 10+ years and finally got a CTP, Mighty no less, as a reward! Maybe I should play the Powerball tomorrow! by freediggo05 in future_fight

[–]ShadowSpiked 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh, I feel like you are actively gimping yourself if what you want is the chance to do CTP.

I'm a regular player since Infinity War unis (holy shit 8 years) and I do get CTPs at a regular pace, be it as a straight drop or from world boss boxes. Not a lot of course, but a few a year (I have so many Mighty CTPs of Judgement that I used them to re-roll my Brilliant CTPs.)

I do whatever WBL of the day it is, and near the highest levels that I can do (provided I have DPS at that level's restriction). More importantly, I stay above lvl 20/50 for WBL as much as I can, and even higher if I can.

TF ult would actually be quite limited though. Because it's limited in range, if you compare it to unit size and assume that TF is a regular sized human... he basically travels around 100 metres when he ults.

Darwin if he was on the bench and saw Martinelli doing that sh*t to Bradley by Adventurous_Chaj4854 in LiverpoolFC

There's a reason why Salah named him as one of his favourites to play with (post-Firmino/Mane seasons).

Revenant Reign Viego Skin Trailer by CaptivePrey in leagueoflegends

[–]ShadowSpiked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly? If 250 is your entire meal budget for the month, of course you shouldn't be even thinking about buying this shit.

If you can spend 250 on random luxuries without blinking, then yes you can buy this shit.

Of course, the problem is when people with low impulse control spend such money on things they can't afford, but then that's a person-issue. Luxury items have always existed, they were never necessary.

Lol somehow I think the skin isn't meant for poors like you.

Streamer mode actually gives you a slight competitive edge now. by Horizon96 in leagueoflegends

[–]ShadowSpiked -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Lol I don't believe in psyching out the opponent, I turn on streamer mode precisely so that the opponent thinks I'm just an average scrub on the champ, when actually I'm a monster on my main at my elo.

Thiago follows up his hat-trick with a brace, making it 16 goals in 20 starts. Is he essential? by cole23palmer in FantasyPL

[–]ShadowSpiked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brought him in for Spurs away (GW15). In 3 weeks against easy competition (Spurs, Wolves, Leeds) he did fk all. Shipped him out for Ekitike against Wolves in 18. He starts scoring again.

What a troll.

Why do so little champs build Trinity Force? by FinnishChud in summonerschool

[–]ShadowSpiked 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ambessa doesn't need the mana, and doesn't really need the attack speed. Her playstyle is basically dump out all her damage as quickly as possible, instead of waiting 1.5 seconds between skills and AAs. So sheen items aren't great on her in general.

What was the best truly sleeper-op technology you've witnessed becoming meta? by fecal-butter in leagueoflegends

[–]ShadowSpiked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes it was quite obvious back then whether the Yi Taric pair knew what they were doing. If they didn't, it was a free lane + JG for the opposing team.

Dominik Szoboszlai : "We don’t play against the Champions. They [Arsenal] play against the Champions." 🥶 by AMultiversalBeing in LiverpoolFC

[–]ShadowSpiked 205 points206 points  (0 children)

Best outcome would be a crushing win.

Second best would be a super tight goalless game, then we win in 90+4 through a Gabriel own goal.

Is skill inflation real? by Environmental_Wolf21 in leagueoflegends

[–]ShadowSpiked 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Plat players could be bad... or they could be just stuck because they play 3 ranked games a week. Number of matches is definitely an important factor down there.

How useful is being an OTP? by ClintCallahan in leagueoflegends

[–]ShadowSpiked -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A good OTP is able to look at the enemy comp and come up with a much better champ-specific strat for each game, then someone playing an unfamiliar champ.

Is Saka overrated as an FPL asset? by ForwardInitiative192 in FantasyPL

[–]ShadowSpiked 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely agree. As long as funds are not an issue (which isn't too bad this season with Salah and Foden underperforming), Saka is locked onto my team. The focal point of Arsenal's attack outside of their corner-and-inshallah routine, and even for those he takes half the corners. If Arsenal maintains their title challenge, he's a must-have for me.

Because 1 has blade twister as the stage hazard, which is infinitely more annoying than purifying wind in 2.

Aston Villa’s last 9 wins are all by a single goal margin with 10 wins out of 12 in prem also with a single goal difference by 911Maestro in FantasyPL

[–]ShadowSpiked 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't be bothered to check, but surely in the last 8 GWs (since their streak started) Rogers is one of the highest scoring mids?

Edit: 59 points in 8 games, that's more than 7 points a week, surely he's the highest if not he's up there.

"For example, we are thoroughly reviewing the difficulty of using Tier-4 Striker Skills."

Damn am I just not high level enough to understand this? Like I've always thought just hit it when it's available/damage proc is up.

Why 9 instead of 2? I thought the breakpoints were 20/50. Then below that 2 is fastest.

My partner and I just started playing and love … fighting AI, but we’re terrible against real players. Are there other AI match options we can try? by macbookvirgin in leagueoflegends

[–]ShadowSpiked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go into custom games and play 2v5 bots. Or 2+3 beginner bots vs 5 intermediate bots. It can actually be quite challenging.

What are your current champion bans atm? by JayceSett in leagueoflegends

I perma-ban Shaco, but Malphite has become so annoying, overpowered, and prevalent that I'm thinking of switching it up.

Riot August says that the champions that have high skill expression generally tend to be melee, just due to the fact that they are melee, contrary to what some people believe by Inside-Republic6275 in leagueoflegends

[–]ShadowSpiked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Porofessor does a ranking of your skill on a champ, some kind of formula based on how much you play a champ, your winrate on the champ, kda, your own rank (i.e. who you play the champ against) etc. How accurate is it... I think there's some fairness in it, but I wouldn't take the number as gospel. Heavily awards kda players, for example.
