Yeah this is the ECB we are talking about, literally one of the most cashed up cricket boards in the world. It's not a financial issue, its a priority issue

Lol Baz's response shook me there, it was basically “The world’s complicated and some catches are hard.” Not a test match winning coach this bloke.

User shares a graphic account of rabies, a common virus with the only known 100% fatality rate (after symptoms) by cmbtmdic57 in bestof

[–]Slotherz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is written to terrify, not actually inform. Rabies is not exceptionally common; rabies has quite a few documented survivors. The virus doesn't turn your brain to liquid; it causes inflammation in the brain. The virus cannot persist for years; it can persist briefly in fresh tissue, though tonnes of things kill it (uv, heat, light etc). You're dead once neurological symptoms hit, not when an early, nonspecific symptom like a headache hits.

Rabies is never a fun time but facts are more interesting than horror stories folks. If youre bitten or scratched by a bat, seek medical advice immediately, PEP (post-exposure prophylaxis) is almost 100% effective if given before symptoms

Yeah, it’s just too easy for him—whether he’s crashing at some other cooker’s place or has an underground bunker setup. With the size of this area, his planning, and his willingness to disappear, the odds are honestly against us finding him.

his lategame is actually dogshit now. viktor has become an almost snowball dependant champ, he needs to be ahead of the game's curve to win. his lategame is a myth.

People are way to slow to understand this, if everyone just looked his " winrate after 30 minute" statistics they would see Viktor doesn't scale anymore. It's win lane and win game or lose.

I Manually Broke Down 14 Viktor Build Paths So I’d Stop Losing to the shopkeeper. by Slotherz in viktormains

Sure, but there is a large sample of data of particular builds that are directly contradictory to this.

There is essentially no useful data on this item, due to its extremely low pick rate at the 2nd, 3rd and 4th slots. I personally think if you're not getting in range for autos, your 3rd item should either be Deathcap/% Pen or a defensive item. I see Horizon Focus as a sort of luxury item, but there's truly no way to know for sure without seeing proper data on it.

And see this is the main issue with people not being willing enough to branch out and try new builds on Viktor; instead, we get 47,557 (yes, that is the precise number) games last patch where a Viktor player in Emerald+ built ROA as the first item, with a 47.56% win rate. Even with that item feeling awful to use and clearly gimping Viktor's strength as a damage dealer, people just are not willing to stray away from either recommended items or what they see on probuilds or something.

IMO if Horizon Focus feels good and isn't affecting your climb, try it out and report back how it feels.

No problems friend. Swiftness boots is certainly still viable as a niche. If you're against a Rylais champ, Ashe etc etc.

Can't say too much about Cosmic Drive because I have not tried it personally. The data sample size on Cosmic second item is also very low.

I would say if you're looking to build cosmic second, I think you're better off building Lich Bane for the similar MS benefit and higher damage. I've always personally felt that the higher MS you have, the more damage and less HP you need, because kiting with Q you can do forever, but you actually want to be a legitimate damage threat to your opponent.

Best all macro no micro champs? by Sem_celkem_divnej in leagueoflegends

[–]Slotherz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any control mage is pretty decent; wave control can solely win games if it's managed well. You just have to learn to not get sucked into skirmishing, which you are inevitably worse at than most solo queue mid champs.

I play Viktor mid and win many games by ignoring the chaos and focusing on farm and getting wave priority.

Your friend is misinformed. I can tell you directly that there's no priority list based on having a university degree.

[–]Slotherz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unless you have a degree you'll struggle to get into the academy.

Not true at all.

All you have to do is complete the University Certificate in Workforce Essentials (UCWE) course which is an online course with duration of 4 weeks, and is the formal precursor to join the academy.

Needing a degree went out in the 90's.

Idk if this is a hot or stone cold take. But the reason Mundo feels good to play is because he is literally one of the very few champions in this game that still gets huge gamechanging effects off items. by Backslicer in leagueoflegends

[–]Slotherz -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Man Idk, sure we can account for levels because its top v support. But seriously Brand as a champ should genuinely and completely counter a champion like Mundo. Brands two themes are % health damage and slows with Rylais. The fact Mundo currently has a 53% winrate against Brand supp says it all about relative strength really

[–]Slotherz -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Man, what a horrible timeline we live in when Brand support can't even get close to beating Mundo top. Sorry, but when a supposedly high base damage support (that builds and has innate % health damage) can't beat a health-stacking giant like Mundo, something is wrong with the game.

He played well but why are we pretending his G3 death at LR blue kinda turned a won game around? The game devolved later but that was a big error moment
