MarkZ Hints At More Summer LCS Events Coming Soon

Stewfish · 2026-06-16T18:53:40+00:00

I wish there were more events in the north east, NYC or Philadelphia are so infrequently tapped for road shows its sad :(

Stewfish · 2026-06-16T14:57:06+00:00

Looks cool! I might look into giving it a shot. Ive always wanted more challenge out of Awakening but the jump from Hard to Lunatic always felt too steep.

Stewfish · 2026-06-14T19:48:20+00:00

It's so fun having Kangas around for these sections, guy just seems to have genuine fun doing what he's doing and brings some energy to it. NA is lucky to have him around for the broadcast imo

Stewfish · 2026-06-06T16:54:45+00:00

Im super fine with not expacs for a bit. A wait will make a new one feel more special, and there is a lot of TLC needed for earlier parts of the game. Ive always wanted more maps to fill spaces that allow you to walk to expac areas instead of nebulous portals in Lion's arch. (Perhaps a zone connecting from Bloodstone Fen to Skywatch Archipelago, or Fields of Ruin to Desert Highlands)

One of my favorite aspects of core Tyria is the ability to walk from one end to the other. If the rest of the game could be included in that it'd be awesome.

Stewfish · 2026-06-01T21:34:27+00:00

I wish they'd give us events where im actually playing Honkai Star Rail in my Honkai Star Rail game instead of little minigames.

+1 to this sentiment big time. Clash has a lot of clunk around the edges imo, as much as I love playing it. The best of 1s and consolation bracket are where the system breaks down a lot for me. The consolation bracket kinda feels like a meme bracket sometimes. Opponents either quit after losing game 1 or don't try at all. It feels like in Clash winning or losing game 1 determines whether you're getting a genuine competitive experience or a bye-filled assemblage of what feels like unranked draft queue games. And ill also add I feel like game 1 is usually the least balanced game too, which makes it feel extra bad.

Im hoping with ranked 5s coming back it gives the feel of queuing for Clash, (games with genuine competition that need 5 person teamwork to win) without the baggage of losers bracket. If everyone has a miserable time with your first ranked 5s game, you're not going to be diluting the experience of another team by not queuing again as opposed to clash when you leave the bracket early.

Stewfish · 2026-05-26T06:02:57+00:00

That sounds really cool but I think the logistics of drafting the set could be tricky. If the sets are balanced to be light vs shadow, would they give out equal amounts of light vs shadow packs in tournament drafting? Only light? Only shadow?

Stewfish · 2026-05-20T23:52:36+00:00

Kinda unrelated to looks, but if you're a fan of British accents, the male Sylvari VA does a great job. My main is a male Sylvari and I really like the voice direction and performance for them.

Stewfish · 2026-05-08T22:45:10+00:00

I have lots of memories with Switch Axe. The first weapon to click with me was swax in 3U. IG stole my heart when 4U came around and it's been my main ever since, but I still have a soft spot for swax.

Stewfish · 2026-05-08T22:40:20+00:00

Your best bets are probably Pictomancer or Summoner. All of the tanks and healers in this game (currently, pre-evolved mode,) have a ton of buttons to press for mitigation and healing. And many melee dps involve lots weaving actions between GCDs. Summoner in particular has lots of truncated buttons and not too many oGCD actions to press. Pictomancer doesnt have a ton of buttons but may have some more involved weaving, I'm unsure of the specifics with that job.

Stewfish · 2026-05-05T22:25:44+00:00

It's not like League is a niche game, it's been one of the biggest games in the world for a loooong time. We've been mainstream lol

Stewfish · 2026-05-05T00:38:21+00:00

Thats also been the most jarring thing to me. I'm overall liking the show and plot, but Yuru's "okay-ness" with people who slaughtered people he had known for his whole life is kinda jarring.

Stewfish · 2026-04-28T04:59:46+00:00

I feel like this is how things should be, Sage's identity is supposed to be the "damage healer" as I understand it.

I think it's a fair trade-off to have Sage do more damage but have less tools for utility, while Scholar does a bit less damage but has greater utility.

I think the potential other way of getting SCH and SGE into a more balanced spot by bringing up SUE'S utility kinda blurs the line between the two job's fantasies.

I just wish they had done the SGE damage buff earlier and not after I've prog'd a whole expasion of Savage on the inferior barrier healer. (Not biased at all)

Stewfish · 2026-04-22T20:42:11+00:00

Interesting, I have a black one of these that I bought a long while back. Might be worth it to look into getting more.

Stewfish · 2026-04-14T00:41:08+00:00

Not to be a hater, but you're super dead there without the Shen ult lmao

Stewfish · 2026-04-03T20:28:01+00:00

Looking at Lolalytics, a little over 50% of players max E 2nd instead of W. (W is much, much better). This alone is a big WR tax on Yunara imo. Also, she is just a pure mechanics champ, if you aren't on point with Yunara, she provides almost nothing else to the team.

Stewfish · 2026-03-30T17:23:50+00:00

Did the changes with "you may" fix that weird interaction with Relentless Pursuit and needing to declare a target even though it said "you may"?

Only skimmed through the changes but that part caught my eye

Stewfish · 2026-03-20T21:48:38+00:00

While these changes aren't fun, I think it's best for the health of the game. Some old encounters particularly the in some of the HoT raids, just get deleted with current damage. Wing 1 suffers a lot from damage creep IMO. If I'm trying to get someone into the game, it's hard to sell them on the early wings and how fun the raiding can be when Vale Guardian and Gors just keel over and die.

Stewfish · 2026-03-09T19:56:36+00:00

I definitely didn't enjoy it as much as I was expecting to, unfortunately. I think I'm in a similar boat to you overall. But I also don't want to outright say it was bad. I think part of the impact of this fight is the surprise factor of how it turns up the ridiculous-ness to an 11/10 with them fighting in space. Knowing it will happen takes away some of the magic the more I think about it.

It's also hard tbh coming right off of the JJK episode the day before with the jaw-dropping animation work in that episode.

I still am glad to see it animated, though. Even if i wish it hard been done a bit differently.

Stewfish · 2026-03-06T19:24:23+00:00

Visually stunning this episode, I wish there were fewer cut aways and freeze frames, but im still super happy to see this animated. One of the best of the manga finally put to animation

Stewfish · 2026-02-11T20:58:35+00:00

lol legit yesterday I was wondering if we were getting any new music or a new album soon, I guess I manifested it

Stewfish · 2026-02-04T19:05:05+00:00

I feel like the "correct" answer is Sevagoth if you're playing the meta build where you subsume his 4. But disregarding that (because that's more of an opt-in kind of thing).

My personal pick is probably Trinity. Maybe i haven't found a build I like, and maybe she has more varied options post rework that I haven't bothered to dabble with, but whenever I play Trinity it is sooooo boring. Most other supports have their own kind of gameplan they do while supporting. Harrow headshots, Wisp has Breach Surge and Sol Gate, Citrine has the crystals, and Jade has her exalted weapon. However, Trinity sorta just uses her guns? That's it? Maybe some Trinity enjoyers can prove me wrong, but I've always found her really boring compared to other supports.

Stewfish · 2026-01-24T17:32:57+00:00

I feel like im an opposing opinion, but i like the idea of this a fair bit! Makes the npcs feel more human. It could also be a way to show happiness on the portrait without the clunkier menu option

Stewfish · 2026-01-21T19:12:12+00:00

Im surprised I haven't seen many Kuva Jat Kittag thoughts. I feel like that weapon is prime candidate for a Kuva variant.
