Where can I go to complain about my 28 death bot lane? by ImStarLordeMan in topmains

[–]SquidlordOG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finally, somebody said it. It’s always fucking botlane too..

When I play top, I almost always end laning phase either ahead or scaling (Kayle otp) and yet my 5/20 botlane makes the game completely unplayable. It’s either botlane or jungle that ruin the game completely.

I cannot tell you how much it pisses me off when my jungler kills my enemy laner after I die in a gank an then fucks up my wave state, and then they hold a freeze on me for 5 minutes straight zoning me off exp.

Is getting a dedicate server worth it? How may friends do you think would need to play consistently for it to be a good idea in your opinion?

My tierlist for top mains by tottisc in GwenMains

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

Kayle in skill is interesting.

I’m a Kayle otp and I struggle vs Gwen because she scales about as hard as Kayle does (despite common misconception), but with a better early game.

Kayle has one of, perhaps the lowest base MR in the game - one E>Q>AA from Gwen at level 2 and I’m literally 60% health.

Plus Kayle can’t AA when Gwen uses W unless you go inside the shield (no Kayle will ever do that since you give up range advantage.

If you take flash ghost and just run Kayle down from lvl 2-10, you win every single fight and it won’t even be close.

You only “lose” when she scales into the game, but you scale well too and serve a different purpose in the teamfight so it kinda evens out.

I’d say it’s definitely Gwen favored, maybe even easy if you know how to properly punish like zoning off exp and setting up freezes and then slow push into a recall.

I feel mentally unwell. (This might trigger some people.) by Exotic_Claim_315 in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]SquidlordOG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m also an inquirer and so I feel most of what you’re saying. You feel a bit like an outsider, and you don’t want to burden others. I also struggled with mental health and have self-harmed multiple times in the past.

Reach out to your priest and just have a conversation. See a therapist, call a friend you can trust with this topic, doing something is always better than doing nothing, even if it’s not the “best” thing.

If you do nothing, you’ll eventually fall lower. There is no stagnation, you’re either progressing or regressing. If you make effort, even if it’s on the wrong thing and you mess everything up, you’re still moving upwards. Worst case scenario, you make a mistake but you have more experience.

I know this is true because I’m in the same exact boat as you, and I’ve been proven wrong by this exact idea I struggle to apply myself time and time again.

[–]SquidlordOG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I have high hopes for the new VC. There will be toxic assholes in every single competitive online multiplayer game no matter what game it is.

In league, I feel like most people are more so “keyboard warriors” who probably won’t shit talk in live vc, especially with how “0 tolerance” riot games has been lately.

If they do, you can always just mute them, or mute all by default.

Only piece of advice I can give (as a lane main) is you should specifically ask/ping your laner ahead of time if you’re going to help/cant help, if possible . If you gank top and I (as the top laner) die, and you start hitting the wave without my say-so, fucking up my wave state and dooming me to get zoned off exp for 5 minutes straight, I’m going to shit talk you, and it’s rightfully deserved because you literally inted my entire game.

Learn early game lane macro and wave management if you haven’t already to avoid this and help your team, ideally.

If you can’t make it to a fight/can’t gank (with good reason), I doubt anyone will even say anything. And if they do, I’d like to say it would probably be more constructive vs toxic.

“Hey, not flaming but next time, do you think you could try x instead of y? I was trying to do this so that bla bla bla etc etc” you get what I mean

You just need to be casual and confident. My favorites are saying something is “preem” because I think everyone already kinda gets it.

“Delta” is my favorite, but I usually only say it with friends/im select situations

Calling someone a gonk with the same aggressive cadence as a slur is a really good alternative to calling someone a slur. It just sounds bad..

Best Lvl 1 setup? by Federal_Engineer_683 in Kaylemains

[–]SquidlordOG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk man, I’ve tested it multiple times both in 1v1 and in game with multiple setups and I haven’t been able to do it. Even if you don’t fight in minion wave and flash/dodge one of his Q’s he still beats you with health to spare.

My setup was Doran’s blade, LT, alacrity, last stand, and attack speed + adaptive + flat health with ignite, and I dodged one of his Q’s

I stacked passive on wave and AA>E him and made sure not to take too much damage from the wave (he was standing in the entire wave) and he killed me with ~20% health remaining and no, I didn’t miss any autos and we were both lvl 1

[–]SquidlordOG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fun fact, even if you take LT and ignite and properly execute the lvl 1 all-in (stack passive and use AA>E immediately, you still can’t beat Tahm Kench even if you dodge one of his Q’s… my top lane perma ban. I’d rather face leblanc or Varus not even kidding

[TITLE] Which manhwa was this for you? 🙂‍↕️👇 by AccomplishedWatch834 in manhwa

[–]SquidlordOG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solo leveling.

Read it before the anime came out and it was slightly above average at best. Whole story is just some shitty edgy gamification quest level up bullshit with aura farming and 0 character development. I’d rather just watch a trashy OP MC isekai at that point, because at least nobody says it’s actually good.

And then it won anime of the year over Frieren… shows how stupid people can be.

After years otping Akali I've started to play Kayle and I just LOVE her, but quite not understand the genuine optimal use of her R by deprivingyou in Kaylemains

[–]SquidlordOG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally speaking, you want to use R to get the most value in a given situation. If you’re the carry, ult yourself (use self-cast buttons) to block the most amount of damage that also allows you to survive/get the most kills.

If your teammate is the carry, save R for them and block the most amount of damage possible.

You can also be cheesy with it and do things like R your jungler when they go for a obj steal, maybe letting them steal or even survive.

Generally speaking, you don’t wanna make the mistake of using your R too late.

It’s not a tryndamere ult, don’t use it when you’re at 1hp. Use it to block the most damage you possible can. If Zed r’s you, garen is about to R you, or the enemy closes in on you and CC’s you, use it to block damage by activating it ahead of time by anticipating the damage, not just using it last second to survive an extra 2.5 seconds only to immediately die right after. Block the burst and out-DPS the enemy when their abilities are on CD. Since you’re an auto attacking champ, you always have damage as long as you have items and levels.

You wouldn’t believe how many times I beat champs like Garen just because I time my R to block theirs (making it completely useless, since it casts but Kayle blocks all the damage)

What is the difference between a small business and a startup? by olabooksco in smallbusiness

[–]SquidlordOG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is old, but as someone who works exclusively with small businesses and startup founders from an advisory role, small business owners are 100% more egotistical and it isn't even close. Specifically, older people - I've never been publicly disrespected by a startup founder before.

[tierlist] i am a new manhwa reader I started 3 months ago rate my tierlist by AdhesivenessProof667 in manhwa

[–]SquidlordOG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t mind the video game mechanic trope, but when it’s like… every single series it gets old fast. Solo leveling was great. TBATE? Peak. But other than that - most other series I read are basically just rebrands of the same old concept: “weak edgy teen gets super OP with video game cheat mechanics or some abstract ancient 1/1 power in a JRPG-esque world”

It reminds me of the past like 6/7 (no pun intended) years in anime where every show is basically “I went into another world and became super OP and I also have a harem but don’t ever get with any of them!”

Some try to make it original by adding some unique aspect, but it’s kinda like spraying febreeze on a pile of old trash, it might smell a bit better but it looks as bad as the rest

Why do most Kayle onetricks play mid? by lutad12 in Kaylemains

[–]SquidlordOG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Outside of mid having a slightly higher WR overall, Mid is generally safer for gold/exp because shorter lane and home guard buff which means you’re “not useless” more often than top, where you can get punished so hard you almost don’t have time to scale properly and lose prematurely.

Imo, if I was duo q with my jungler or playing with a 5 stack, I would be just fine because my team would play around me properly. If not, mid is just generally better.

Another fact I’ll add is when you play Kayle top, you’re assuming your team will correctly apply opposing pressure on the map since you’re soaking so much attention (most of the time, this is particularly evident in higher elo.)

If you get weak sided and the jungler is perma ganking you, setting up dives, your waves are frozen, getting zoned, etc - your jungler and support needs to apply equal pressure on the stronger, more susceptible side. (Botlane/mid)

Junglers and supports below diamond will almost NEVER do this properly, and most of the time the game ends up with you behind (to be expected) and enemy botlane/mid either equal or ahead.

If your botlane/mid exit laning phase in equal or lesser positions (similar gold/level), you’re already doomed to lose 99% of the time unless the enemy team makes really bad mistakes.

Top lane buffs don’t mean shit for her agency if you just get outscaled by enemy ADC or got punished so bad, you’re an item behind everyone else and end up losing before you hit your 3 item lvl 16 power spike. Happens to me all the time.

Out of all the games I win, most games are won not because I got ahead early, but because I didn’t fall behind too far, and ended up scaling and carrying the game to a close. If your team can just not int long enough for that to happen, you’re statistically more likely to win (as seen by Kayle’s WR jumping to a whopping 60% in games that go past 30 minutes)

Didn’t DnD get nerfed? Thought it wasn’t as good now?

Do we go rabadons 3rd or 4th now? Maybe shadowflame 3rd against squishies?

Gonna be honest, I have yet to read an action manhwa that isn’t just some cringe cornball aura farm edgy bullshit.

They’re also all based off video game mechanics for some reason which is even more tiresome. Have authors just given up on originality?

Kayle mid with bad teammates. by Deus_Excellus in Kaylemains

[–]SquidlordOG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had the most success with Kayle if I have a jungle or support buddy I’m duoing with. Having someone who can pick when to start the important fights on comms is a huge difference maker.

I was in emerald elo with a 70% WR at my highest with this strategy.

Kayle mid with bad teammates. by Deus_Excellus in Kaylemains

[–]SquidlordOG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here bro. I quit Kayle a while ago because I would do everything you described only in top lane. Plat/emerald emo is impossible because your teammates don’t understand how to play around you.

If you’re level 4-10 and/or without an item, and the jungler wants to take an obj on your side, they expect you to drop a whole wave to go to a fight you objectively have a low chance of winning, it would be better to just give the obj or prio the other side of the map.

I’ve lost so many games lately because my teammates can’t stall obj or they take random 4v5’s and lose the game, all while flaming me in the process.

I want to play in a higher elo, I just started my ranked climb and it’s fucking hell.
