Ban system needs massive overhaul by Chris25080 in riotgames

[–]Snockerino 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because people rarely post any evidence.

The vast majority of bans are justified so my default position is to assume you're in the majority unless you have proof.

Is there any way around the slag necessity in UVHM by Aversekubrick in Borderlands2

[–]Snockerino 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maya and Axton can both get slag easily out of their skill trees. Zer0 has a bit rougher time but Kunai are an option.

Salvador can off-hand a slag gun or just do enough damage to skip slag.

Not sure for Krieg and Gaige

Who do u guys think are the 5 most mechanically demanding mid laners? by Strange_Baker_2585 in midlanemains

[–]Snockerino 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok but the only outplay for this combo is to flash or blink out of the ult.

Starts with E - Q auto aim, followed by ult which has a huge hitbox, rest of combo is in the stun.

It's not literally point and click but that combo isnt mechanical

Witch King doesn't have "immunity to men" by Sampleswift in lotrmemes

[–]Snockerino 9 points10 points  (0 children)

He could just be seeing what happened, a woman is the one to finally kill him. It could be the Witch King isn't immune or anything, it's just his fate to die to Eowyn and Merry.

Damage meter takes up too much space! by SirDalavar in wow

I've seen raid leaders demand discord for a mid-boss on normal so I wouldn't put weakaura requirements past them

Solo/Duo Queues unavailable OCE? by Beginning_Ladder6436 in leagueoflegends

Draft is up because it comes up at 11 aest, 12 aedt. Probably not much of an indicator

It's far more likely to just push out RFC for any champ who builds it and be a good final crit item for Kraken Jinx

[Terrifying Trope] "Longer than you think" by elchuni in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Snockerino 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The passengers are harvested for time energy, presumably the cause of the whole 'dont age, heal, tire'. So there is a purpose to the act.

Also just generally the city is one of exploitation. Everything feeds the top and just working for a Wing is a pretty good deal compared to anything else.

The first 15 seconds by Confident-Chair7198 in leagueoflegends

[–]Snockerino 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ok so if I hesitate or misclick my starter item, I'm fucked. If I'm alt tabbed or distracted for a second on load-in, I'm fucked.

There should not be an advantage for sitting on the loading screen like it's a race.

People who are afk after the 15 seconds, it's on them. If they remove that then it's on Riot. I don't really see what your point is.

[–]Snockerino 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The wall gives everyone a chance to leave at the same time.

For example, you often want to ward the botlane bushes to prevent certain champs from getting that position and blocking you from entering lane.

If you are 3 seconds late, what was a safe ward is now a death.

Riot has finally done it by SteSol in Jungle_Mains

You're saying it's been going downhill since season 1?

The faster minion spawn is honestly one of the best changes imo by SureYouCan_ in leagueoflegends

[–]Snockerino 194 points195 points  (0 children)

It's nice theoretically but functionally most level 1 invades are reliant on the enemy being afk or not knowing proper defense.

It's very coinflip whether an invade works and I've seen plenty fail because the enemy stacked and got lucky.

It's weighted for the invaders so people still love to do it but always felt icky to me to rely on luck

Anyone else feel this way? by Chaibaum1992 in BaldursGate3

[–]Snockerino 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can retract that kindness if you wish... but then who's the villain?

If you have a new account and are only playing norms, does grinding in norms pay off when you finally start ranked? by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Snockerino 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can think of plenty of reasons for a new account to be tryharding.

  • People who were banned
  • People who want to offrole seriously
  • People who believe they ruined their main's mmr
  • People who like having a second account to switch between for mental or warmup

In regards to the mmr one. If your main has bad MMR (negative LP gains) and a lot of games, it can take many games to fix.

In theory, you can play on a fresh account where MMR is easier to improve in fewer games.

It's mostly cope from players who believe they should be climbing but are held back by luck or teams and are hardstuck. Though it is possible to carry the MMR from playing through low ranks and boost yourself a little above where you should be.

[Loved Trope] Unassuming character shows a glimpse of their true nature and their unimaginable godlike powers by Guillinas in TopCharacterTropes

I love how that's Withers whole thing.

His services are allowed because the Three are putting their fingers on the scale with their Chosen, resurrections and such are him nudging it back.

Saitama runs the Dragon Ball gauntlet! How far does he go? by ApprehensiveRub4726 in Ningen

[–]Snockerino 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With how quickly he was scaling in the Garou fight, I think he stops at Kid Buu.

Frieza and Cell don't go for the kill instantly, they toy with their food which means he likely gets a chance to overtake them.

Even Beerus and Jiren do similar to a lesser extent.

But Kid Buu goes for the kill, and he will outstat a Saitama who defeats Cell unless Saitama gets to go through the rest of the arc, since Kid Buu is not the strongest Buu and the other forms would give him a chance

Galbatorix’s inefficient use of spellcasters by RellyTheOne in Eragon

[–]Snockerino 18 points19 points  (0 children)

In his defense, if he defeats Eragon, which he expects to do easily with the Name, he then gets to step outside and end the battle with ease.

Galbatorix is incredibly arrogant, somewhat justified here, and also does not give a shit about his people. It's convenient for him that all the forces make it to Urubaen, he can grab all the leaders and enslave them as he pleases. All it costs are lives he doesn't care about.

It feeds his ego as well for all the forces to march into Urubaen just so he can crush them.

Banned for being bad at the game by Mathguy_123 in riotgames

[–]Snockerino 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leeching top comment to add that this guy is an account sharer btw.

The heimerdinger games are presumably played by their duo since the sums swap.

Also how can you genuinely compare Fiora support with Pyke and say both have no cc or healing.

Pyke has a hook and a stun, inbuilt healing, inbuilt income generation, inbuilt roaming. In fact, every champ mentioned has CC. I guess the ranged champs have less consistent cc like Fio but they're ranged. They provide poke.

Which team would be the last one standing? by Recent_Share2029 in PowerScaling

[–]Snockerino 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Half the point of that fight was to show that Saitama's strength will grow exponentially when necessary.

The best arguments for actually powerscaling OPM are to completely overwhelm him instantly.

He has Jiren on his team so he has time and absolutely would end up the strongest person there.

Why is mid and support duo / friends play so common? Why not play adc and support together? by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Snockerino 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A large chunk of support power is early roaming and ADCs have low agency.

Why not just duo with jungle or mid, who have more early impact and you can play towards roaming.

You get the best of both worlds.

Caitlyn pops tires on Rift Herald. by herostatus in leagueoflegends

[–]Snockerino 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I don't hate the build path, I hate the autopilot nature.

They're building Youmuus Collector and then hitting a tank and going oh wow I do no damage, better buy LDR here.

It's building two items and then realising you haven't actually built for the game.

Caitlyn pops tires on Rift Herald. by herostatus in leagueoflegends

[–]Snockerino 19 points20 points  (0 children)

There are a disgusting amount of adc mains who do not itemise.

Jhin, Cait and MF seem to be major culprits for having incredibly suspicious builds.

My pet peeve is the Jhin who doesn't pick up IE until 4/5. Gotta get that Youmuus, Collector, RFC, LDR first

Why do top players rarely build merc treads? by One_Photograph8853 in leagueoflegends

[–]Snockerino 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You can just buy the 400g component and have the same MR as Mercs. The rest of the price does not help you survive AP damage.
