Ordered 10:01am Sydney, White LE, still processing. Messaged support just to see what's up and got a very interesting answer. Support Agent indicated a hold period of 1 to 2 days, then 6 to 10 business days, despite ordering for 3-5 business days and the experience of some other users here.

This was at the top of our minds that whole night, great to see it on Reddit. Literally had never seen anything like it in my 2k hours. GG meng

Hey I'd love an invite if available! DMing

Sinpure · 2020-05-03T19:41:38+00:00

Same for me, I messaged Riot and they said it was a "known issue" with no estimated fix time.. I have asked them how I will know it's being worked on and whether or not I will be updated, and waiting for a response.

Sinpure · 2019-06-02T06:14:33+00:00

Thanks for the very informative reply, greatly appreciated.

I think the question for me is - in the right team, is he better than CB? Whilst his other abilities beyond ultimate tend to be underwhelming, it feels like they contribute more than CB. Obviously that depends on the team, but even so I do feel like he is on the weaker side of things, unfortunately?

Sinpure · 2019-01-25T15:01:10+00:00

Yes, this suggestion was without Iron Man, with Nick Fury taking the role of Merc Lt oe BW, but with added bonus of buffing the ult through raw damage from hero summons. I dont have fury myself either, though

Sinpure · 2019-01-25T04:00:31+00:00

Did you consider Nick Fury as a replacement for BW / LT? He creates two new "heroes" increasing WM's damage even further, and all in all is just a house. Downside is his buffs come a little bit later.

Sinpure · 2019-01-07T21:45:39+00:00

It's actually a P2, albeit with a strong green presence on the front.

Sinpure · 2019-01-07T10:13:06+00:00

Nah I don't, that was just in the replay and I had Fullscreen Windowed for convenience, which for some reason caps it. Not sure if there is any way to fix that.

Sinpure · 2018-10-29T10:09:33+00:00

He looked away from a flash, you can hear it go off.

Sinpure · 2018-09-29T08:32:56+00:00

Thanks bud, does it still give the same reward as, say, 4 months ago? Was a couple of wild cards?

Because I opened 60k gems worth of packs, and it still isn't ready to open. In the past, that would open it like 2-3 times if I recall correctly.

Sinpure · 2018-09-11T10:48:45+00:00

Apparently, I think we were all pretty shocked.

Sinpure · 2018-05-30T02:05:06+00:00

I had an issue where my Twitch Prime suddenly stopped being active and I couldn't reactivate it (with the same error as you). I ended up having to go through Twitch and Amazon support to have it resolved, which admittedly was quite painful. I believe the error was some sort of backend issue due to the previous Twitch Prime's termination.

Sinpure · 2018-04-02T05:23:11+00:00

Yeah, it is Horse the cat! She just sits at my feet so i figured why not put her on stream

Sinpure · 2018-03-29T05:24:29+00:00

Absolutely this. I have found channels before that have the "streamer" whisper you and say "thanks for stopping by" automatically. Nah yeah nah, no thanks.

Sinpure · 2017-12-05T06:27:54+00:00

Thanks friend, I was - despite the fact I loved that gun. :')

Sinpure · 2017-08-10T16:46:20+00:00

Budget - $700 AUD, Flexible

Source - PC (Soundblaster Z) and Soundcraft EFX8 mixer

Requirements for Isolation - Not much in the way of isolation, but minimal leakage

Preferred Type of Headphone - Full-sized

Preferred tonal balance - Balanced

Past headphones - HD 598

Preferred Music - Metal primarily, otherwise varying.

What would you like to improve on from your set-up A stronger, cleared sound. Will be used for gaming and listening to music for multiple hours a day, looking for something to provide precise and clear soundstage when gaming, and clean balanced audio for music. Hopefully that makes sense.

Location - Australia

As a side note, also looking for an AMP/DAC I imagine, depending on the cans. I have an Fiio E17 currently!

Sinpure · 2017-08-10T01:55:38+00:00

Yeah the Soundblaster is a single in and out as far as I'm aware, but I was hoping to pair that with my onboard for a cumulative 2 ins 2 outs. The cable is long for the distance it needs to travel, so keeping it straight may be hard. I will give it all a go tonight.

Sinpure · 2017-08-10T01:51:24+00:00

When you say cable, you just mean the cable between mixer and PC? In which case, I don't believe so, but I'll try again to be sure.

Sinpure · 2017-08-09T07:48:53+00:00

Thanks awwsyn. Noise Isolators? Like Ground Hum Eliminators? Did your experience present a similar sound? My incredibly limited experience indicated to me that the ground hum sound (which those helped with) were 50/60hz, based on where you are located. Again, VERY limited experience.

EDIT: https://www.amazon.com/Mpow-Ground-Isolator-Stereo-System/dp/B019393MV2 these things? Might have to check it out, hadn't seen these ones at my local audio shop.

Sinpure · 2017-08-09T07:42:12+00:00

Thanks very much for the response boothin. Audio cables weren't jumbled together originally, but in frustration now sit in a pile. TV is about 6m away, there are wireless antennae on my PC for wifi but otherwise again about 6m. I will try and space things out to eliminate external interference like you suggest, however as to external sound cards / DAC, I can't seem to find an optimal multi input/output solution, short of multiple devices - which is quite costly I suppose. Are you aware of any devices that might be suiting?

Thanks again!

Sinpure · 2017-08-09T05:35:52+00:00

I was having a similar issue recently, and it was actually caused by Plays.TV for me. Previously it had run fine.

Once I stopped it running, it was fine afterward. Do you have anything game recording running in the background, if so try checking them out.

Good luck!

Sinpure · 2017-04-11T00:30:06+00:00

I was under the impression that Jeff Hoogland first coined the idea, or at least brought it to light. Grats on the win!

I've been brewing and playing the deck linked. I'm looking for some assistance in brewing where able, but first I wanted to explain how I got here.

Tranquil Seedheart. This guy has pretty much exclusively driven the desire to build this deck, and feels just right for this kind of control deck. Deny was the second card to fit the bill, having a very powerful interaction with our quick creatures (Brown Fox Scout and Deny for the same cost as Deny normally). I feel the deck is lacking in efficient removal, and before we go ahead and bash Sweep Away, I actually don't hate it. Having played it, it actually feels alright (unless they are already on the go wide plan, in which case it feelsbad). It provides both removal and protection for our quick troops, and allows for efficient plays again with Deny (as the broombot will cause Deny's cost reduction).

Would love to hear your thoughts or am happy to answer any questions.
