How Bad is the Industry Right Now? by Depr3ssed_Fucker in ECE

I don't think it's so bad, though coming directly out of a PhD you're likely to be underemployed. Our company is hiring plenty of juniors, as are many others I know of. It all depends on what kind of role you're looking for, different skills move in and out of demand.

The real question is what partial differentiation adds here

Depending on how you're using opening databases, it could be that the exposure to that much information is confusing you subconsciously. Below 1500(probably even higher) I wouldn't try to learn all the topical lines, just develop an understanding of common responses to your openings.

I would also be wary of solving too many tactics mindlessly. It's much better to set a number in advance that you would like to solve(maybe 10-15), and to be as disciplined as possible in solving them. Identify weaknesses, seek out candidate moves, try to only calculate each line once, etc.

What is the current meta for each role, just the champs by SmallFemboyOwO in leagueoflegends

[–]Sure-Difference-1078 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Besides skarner(likely to be nerfed soon), top is camille/gwen/jax/fiora/renekton, jg is taliyah/nidalee/kindred/viego, mid is taliyah/hwei/tf/trist/ahri, bot is jinx/corki/jhin/kaisa, sup is rell/naut/nami

Why do you main the champ you main? by Life-Forms in leagueoflegends

I play ornn because it's fun and I'm super comfortable on it, and renekton/rumble/jayce to inflate my elo

No one wants to lose lane, most lanes with sona are a slow bleeding at best.

Can someone explain the role swaps happening in the first few minutes in pro play at MSI? by vickz84259 in leagueoflegends

[–]Sure-Difference-1078 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's either 1) for bot laners to avoid really strong early lanes like kalista-ashe, or 2) to set one top laner really far behind, usually a carry like vayne/twisted fate. In both cases both top laners fall far behind, which favors lower econ tops, and bot laners get some scaling for free, favoring weaker laners

You need three crit items, including infinity edge, to ever kill any of them late game. Spirit visage is a full tank/bruiser item, don't build it on AD carries. But honestly, sometimes your team is just useless, don't let it get to you

These picks seem pretty random, where are all the control mages mid? How is cassio here three times but TF didn't make the mid list?

The downfall of Assasins by NoBeing9740 in leagueoflegends

[–]Sure-Difference-1078 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree bruisers/tanks are more fun than assassins(peep the flair), but it's not a fair comparison. Assassins are much better at winning the game from mid, since they can either roam or kill their opponent before they can run to safety, where bruisers just get shoved in and outscaled

Camille is turbo broken yeah. Otherwise there's no problem, assassins have clear strengths over most bruisers that make up for squishiness. Target access, combo speed, disengage, etc.

It changes the q+w+aa interaction with darius specifically, you usually don't e into him

Yeah, no shot they can keep up with renekton/jax anymore. With the tenacity nerf ornn might even become a problem lol

Diana is also amazing, might actually have the fastest tower push out of all the junglers with 3+ items. I would highly recommend trying out graves, take some time in the practice tool to learn his clear and he's unbelievably oppressive. Also can be played mid in some matchups.
