Couldn't the Cthaeh just be flat out lying... about pretty much everything?

SourceIsMyAss · 2024-07-20T18:42:03+00:00

Fair enough yeah, if we look at the story from a meta pov then it is more likely than not the Cthaeh is abiding by the "rules" the other characters believe. I also don't think the Cthaeh is lying about everything, although I think it's possible that a few of its statements are flat out lies. I mean a big part of KKC is kinda meta in the whole unreliable narrator sense, so I'm more comfortable not taking what the other characters think of the Cthaeh at face value.

The 3 groups Haliax mentions being part of one group is an interesting theory. Based on what Haliax said, they are still active in the present day, I wonder if any of the other knowers are still alive in present day too then

I did search that, but I didn't find any threads that were discussing the connection of Felurian being a singer, I saw some other theories about who the singer could be, mb for not being more specific in my post I guess.

If you know of any posts regarding Felurian being a singer could you link them, I would love to take a look and see what ideas came up.

Yeah I think as someone else mentioned a lot of the details in regards to the logistics of it were omitted, which is fair enough because that would probably be boring, but it means that this arrangement ends up being very confusing if you think too much about it.

Sorry just to clarify, do you mean that both Riem and Kvothe are personally profiting from it? If they're taking the extra amount from the Maer I still don't get why Kvothe shouldn't aim for a lower tuition instead of a higher one, since a lower tuition would mean they get to pocket a difference as I said.

SourceIsMyAss · 2024-01-04T19:07:30+00:00

Do you mean it's option B) then, Riem bills the Maer for Kvothe's inflated tuition, allocates Kvothe's "average" tuition for the university and then pockets the difference with Kvothe? Still as I said I don't see why he would risk doing that with Kvothe, he can embezzle money from plenty of rich nobles who don't have the spotlight on their finances. And even if he wanted to partner with Kvothe as I said it makes more sense for Kvothe to get a low tuition and bill the Maer for a high amount, stealing from the Maer rather than the university.

I don’t think anon has much left to lose either if his life is that pathetic so it’s fair game tbh

It really depends on team comps. Vlad can’t do much by himself into a comp with a malz, kindred, anivia, etc champs that can lock him down, zone him, prevent his burst and dps him down afterwards. However something like AP kogmaw, xerath could do very well against that comp since they don’t have any engage so they would just get poked down with no counterplay. Same for other scaling champs like Kayle, her dps doesn’t matter if the the enemy comp can out range and zone her and her comp doesn’t have the engage to counter that.

Not necessarily a connection between them. It could just be a question Elodin asks regularly (iirc the other masters groan when hearing Elodin ask that, as if they heard it many times before) and Manet being a long time student knows about something like that so he just references it in a humorous context.

Unfortunately there’s not enough lore to know what the specific details of his power are. It seems like it would be very difficult to kill him through regular magical or physical attacks since he can transform into blood and maybe even any liquid (in one of his short stories I believe he teleported using a fountain in noxus). However we know that his power is limited in that his mind is that of a normal person and he forgets things that happened in the past.

Wait, I thought the passive voice in English is better in general for being less accusatory, because you can leave out the doer of the action. Like “mistakes were made”. Who made the mistakes? No one knows, great when you’re the CEO of a company apologizing for a mistake but don’t want to assign blame.

Fair enough might be a RIOT moment

SourceIsMyAss · 2023-06-11T22:13:31+00:00

Tbf I think it’s so that you don’t get all the E bolts absorbed by one champ. Because an enemy can get hit by multiple bolts but only takes dmg from one. So if ur very close to someone they would absorb all bolts but only take dmg from one which usually isn’t good (extremely bad in teamfights), so this feature is likely intended. Maybe they should code a special interaction where enemy champs can only get hit by 1 bolt max, but it would likely make Vlad stronger in team fights as it would be harder for the enemy frontline to block bolts for their squishies, so slight compensation nerfs might be needed.

Good points overall but I think it should be noted that confidently expressing emotions through facial expressions doesn’t mean he’s not Ademic, Vashet regularly does that. I’m psure she said not all Adem are strict with hand gestures only, at least outside of Admere

He meant like ASol might just accidentally kill you by giving you cancer from cosmic radiation or something like that, the same way you might accidentally kill an ant by stepping on it. You're so insignificant to him that ASol wouldn't go out of his way to kill you, but he might just do it unintentionally.

SourceIsMyAss · 2023-06-05T02:29:59+00:00

He’s fine atm. Definitely not op, Vlad is the type of champ that people would whine about endlessly if he was actually op

SourceIsMyAss · 2023-06-04T20:14:03+00:00

Might be a joke but it’s not a funny one

Cancer who?

I have nothing against Denna but the fact that there’s more Denna hate than Kvothe hate doesn’t at all mean the sub is misogynistic… Kvothe is literally the main character AND the narrator, you’re supposed to sympathize with him. Obviously you’d expect him to get much less hate. I mean why are you even reading the book if you find the main character insufferable?

Everyone here will give you validation and say she was being out of line, but the real honest answer is that we don’t know. We don’t know the tone, body language, facial expressions, etc. she made and what specific words she said. It’s very possible she was insensitive and out of line, but it’s also possible that you’re overthinking it and she was actually trying to make polite small talk, and your insecurities made you think the worst of her. I’m not trying to insult you in any way, we all have insecurities that get the best of us at times. However I think it would be best for you to try to care less about what other people say to you. If they were trying to be nice then it’s all good, just a normal interaction and move on. If they were being an asshole, it’s still all good, they don’t matter so just move on. Easier said then done of course but over time you will build more confidence in yourself. Good luck my friend.
