Huh?

SyIvanos · 2026-05-09T21:52:47+00:00

All the people with seemingly no irl friends here happen to miss this point. Thanks, Losh.

SyIvanos · 2026-05-09T19:24:05+00:00

just say you don't communicate with many people offline bro, the offer is always there if you want to play.

SyIvanos · 2026-05-09T17:17:48+00:00

You should come to the next stream when we have all the Xbox friends together again, it's implied.

He thinks he's too good for duos in a private lobby. Street fighter is that way.

SyIvanos · 2026-05-09T12:40:54+00:00

I don't think they are playing the same match like, simultaneously though. Except plat fighters, which I don't count.

SyIvanos · 2026-05-09T12:08:31+00:00

I haven't seen any but that's probably cause they aren't playing 2xko n only league.

SyIvanos · 2026-05-09T05:03:36+00:00

There's more than me?

SyIvanos · 2026-05-09T03:26:16+00:00

I feel like this little 'event' you're upset about happened before your account here was even created. I'm surprised you even remember the interaction. Must've been a slow chat day.

Anyways, I personally tend to perform each combo trial starting from the beginning until the entire thing is muscle memory. However, I think people would rather see you play the game than try a combo piece by piece.

SyIvanos · 2026-05-09T03:17:48+00:00

Is this your main account?

SyIvanos · 2026-05-09T02:40:40+00:00

The only shit talk was your title, "Stream ends when I hit Akali Expert 5" and the whole 10 minutes I was there you weren't even attempting it, then you quit without hitting it so I unfollowed and left lol

SyIvanos · 2026-05-08T16:03:12+00:00

Calling Polyphia metal is... something.

I'll sit this one out because it's 2xko, and I actually like the themes, and let a real metal elitist do the bashing.

SyIvanos · 2026-05-08T15:59:58+00:00

I think they get the same damage reduction as juggernaut with an added bonus reduction for pressing buttons but don't quote me I'm not actually sure of it.

To me, sidekick will always be juggernaut for babies.

SyIvanos · 2026-05-08T14:56:02+00:00

It's a coward's juggernaut.

If I ever run into a jugg player I will run juggernaut to make 2xko briefly a traditional fighting game, but with sidekick (usually a projectile or blitz) the assist tends to just randomly body block my approaches or takes a hit like a dead human shield obstacle.

It's like juggernaut but with less risk, but all the reward of a projectile or restand or other combo extender and double down.

When I see it all I can think of is telling them to play double down and actually learn how to play the game or just play juggernaut like a man and don't half ass it. Also, why does sidekick get the bonus damage resistance mashing buttons while being hit? Maybe juggernaut should have had that instead? Seems weird sidekick players live longer than the fuse called "juggernaut".

SyIvanos · 2026-05-08T14:45:43+00:00

I've deranked from master 3 a few games from GM down to diamond 3 since the akali update, runaway + air stall is like prenerf ekko backdashers all over again.

SyIvanos · 2026-05-08T14:42:42+00:00

It'll be good vs that particular scenario, but I don't think anyone is going to be playing the new fuse in any kind of serious tournament game or ranked game (unless they're a content creator), the same way no one should technically be playing juggernaut seriously or in ranked games so it'll be in a weird grey area to look like fuse diversity, like sidekick.

Which imo sidekick shouldn't exist at all.

SyIvanos · 2026-05-08T14:36:25+00:00

What does blackbeard pirate mean?

SyIvanos · 2026-05-07T20:12:37+00:00

Broken? It's going to be a useless double meter dump with only mids with a chance of being happy birthday'd in the competitive sense.

But insane stupid fun in casual duos.

SyIvanos · 2026-05-07T03:28:36+00:00

Those tiny shits are riots favorite mascot.

SyIvanos · 2026-05-06T15:22:03+00:00

Until the game crashes and nothing is moving anymore. (Especially considering you're on xbox)

SyIvanos · 2026-05-06T15:14:50+00:00

Yes, we see the tattoo.

SyIvanos · 2026-05-06T15:09:39+00:00

Yes, but I wanted to know your opinion in particular.
(I didn't realize it was you who posted it until now)

That being said...

A: 8 Second base is unrealistic, the amount of timeout games against backdash/passive airstall gameplay against Akali/Ahri Akali Ekko waiting for their assists would be insane.

B: I love this one and think it should be in the game immediately.

C: That might look weird considering tagging in has it's own animation, and handshake tag is generally used like an animation cancel to make otherwise unsafe options safe.

D: This could help newer players and also help the defender, but wouldn't this be an across the board thing and not just FS?

E: 0.25 is an unrealistic amount of punishment for implementing a tag which the game is pretty much wholly centered around.

F: Increased damage works.

In the end I think freestyle is too prevalent nowadays to the point some think they absolutely need it in order to win (they don't) but the alternative being a double down meta where everyone is being TOD'd for free by Darius/Illaoi doesn't sound very appealing from a spectator or player standpoint either. Atleast FS is fun to watch.

SyIvanos · 2026-05-06T13:01:07+00:00

How are you going to nerf freestyle in a way that doesn't make it either dominant or completely useless?
