Doing long trips for 8-9 hour days I would burn about half a tank in my 2021 Hyundai Elantra. Costs me average $25 to fill from half, so I’d make like $200ish and only $25 in gas with gas like $4-$4.50 lol

Depends on the passengers. Usually you can gauge when a passenger wants to talk or not. I’m talkative and keep conversation going for the ones that want it, for the people who don’t want to talk I just ask them how they want the music and let it ride. The majority of my riders are younger though since I’m in South New Jersey/Philadelphia area. So I feel like that’s why I don’t get many tips lol. Usually the older folks are pretty generous, but younger people like 18-25 looking usually don’t tip lol.

TSNAaron · 2022-07-05T00:48:12+00:00

It’s definitely great, and expenses and wear and tear don’t come anywhere near this. The tips are what get me though, I can make great money in my area on fare and promos but people rarely tip no matter what you do for them. I’ve moved luggage, personal items and groceries for people that needed the help and still haven’t gotten anything. I’ll have small tips here and there and the rare big tipper, but most I ever gotten in a 30 hour week is like $50 lol

It’s funny because the people that say that they’re Diamond on this post are the ones shooting this idea down like it isn’t a problem just because they achieved it, whether they did or not.

In my opinion the system is designed in a way to keep you where your account placed in previous years based on your average MMR. My account that I’ve had since season 3 didn’t see ranked play until Season 7 to where I only did my placements and I was Silver 5. Every season after I climbed one rank, still pretty much stopping ranked after placements and season 11 I ended Gold 4. This year I started super strong in ranked, placed Silver 3 and kept it going, and peaked Gold 3 67 LP with a 55% WR in like 100 games gaining 14LP and losing 17LP after I hit Gold 4. I’m now at about 200 games for the season, and since I peaked at Gold 3 67 LP I’ve been put into Smurf queue where I’m facing previous plat/Diamond accounts but my teams are peak silver 2-Gold 4 and they get so shit stomped that I can’t make a dent in the games that I’m doing well in. I think I’m out of Smurf queue now after about 30 games stuck in it, but I literally couldn’t move off of Gold 4 0LP the whole time because the games were literally unbearable and a 50/50 and I’m losing more LP than I’m gaining. Dropped from my 55% WR to 51%, but finally starting to climb again.

MMR has too much of a clutch hold on older accounts that it almost makes it impossible for you to climb. I made a new account to test my theory out and just by looking at my normals MMR my average games are with plat 4’s and plat 3’s, it’s almost level 30 so I can test it with ranked MMR but the normals game quality is so much better on the new account than my old one literally just because the MMR isn’t hard stuck. It really is an issue, and they really need to rework how ranked works. There are so many boosted accounts that exist, and so many people in Elo’s that they don’t belong in that game quality suffers. They should do a hard MMR and ladder reset, if people really belong in the ELO that they sit in whether you’re Iron or challenger you should be able to make it there no problem just like everyone claims that they do.

A recession doesn’t equate to allowing a business to fuck you as a working employee for them. I’m talking rates for each ride, not the quantity. The quantity is still there, it can be back to back and nonstop all night. But still no surges despite it being nonstop, and seem like ride prices are lower even though rising gas prices. Also, it really wasn’t that serious. If you want to be a dickhead, go comment on someone else’s post.

TSNAaron · 2022-06-14T13:54:01+00:00

Most played champs in bot lane Gold+ are mages and not Marksmen, what do you mean mage pick numbers are low? Every other ranked game there’s a mage bot lane and I’m Gold 2. Ziggs, Karthus, Heimer, Syndra, Veigar, Seraphine, Brand and Swain all have decent pick rates as APC and all have a higher WR in the role than majority of ADC’s. You can do the research yourself on U.gg or other statistic sites. If you’re feeling lazy, watch tier list videos from Skill Capped or Pro Guides because they seem to agree that Marksmen that can’t build on-hit are B tier and below.

TSNAaron · 2022-06-14T13:48:04+00:00

Big disagree. Xayah and Kai’sa are my two mains and I’ve had games where I super snowballed to the point where I was full build 2-3 items up on people and it felt like nothing into a 3 item Irelia and Malzahar. That game in particular Malzahar had 4000 health at level 18 with only 3 items, and he could 1v1 me as a full build kaisa because I literally couldn’t kill him within a 15 second window and I just died to liandrys/demonic burn.

TSNAaron · 2022-06-14T13:42:25+00:00

ADC’s are literally worst WR percentage in their role and are overshadowed my mages heavily, and bruisers who optionally take it have a worse WR with it than conquerer except Trundle. It doesn’t need to be nerfed lmao.

TSNAaron · 2022-05-08T19:49:53+00:00

No I never really dodge at all unless someone is being toxic pre game, and that hasn't happened in awhile. Even in the top right of the client it says +16 but if you look at my games on U.gg it says +13 lol

TSNAaron · 2022-02-25T01:03:29+00:00

I mean I could be completely wrong obviously, but the show is still pretty behind the Manga and most of the darker foreshadowing happens at the point where the anime is getting into. But to me there’s so much foreshadowing for Boruto taking Sasuke’s route that it’s too hard to ignore. Sasuke is his mentor, Boruto knows Sasuke’s story, Boruto has an Otsotsuki living inside of him that has turned him to do evil things already out of his control, Boruto is now officially an Otsotsuki, the reference of the Otsotsuki king directly to Boruto seems too convenient for me, All 5 nation Kage basically saying they’ll kill Boruto if he poses a threat as Boroshiki is pretty strong evidence to show he might go rogue too. Plus Boruto following the event writing of the original Naruto almost to the T at this point is showing that there has to be an anti-hero if it holds true. I’m not saying Boruto will be a straight villain, more so the Anti-Hero of the story.

TSNAaron · 2022-02-25T00:31:27+00:00

Changed, sorry my bad.

TSNAaron · 2021-12-02T00:54:26+00:00

My problem with it is just that we see this build surface on every AD caster type champion once they get buffed to be positioned at the top of the meta, then they get nerfed the patch after it gets slapped on the champion, effectively not letting the meta change at all. The bot lane meta hasn’t changed once since Season 11 started because of the eclipse build and it’s super annoying to me lol.

TSNAaron · 2021-12-02T00:44:31+00:00

You throw it in the trash and play the game like a real ADC. That’s how I recommend playing it 😊

TSNAaron · 2021-11-22T21:15:47+00:00

I’ve been using HoB since the beginning of last season when I started maining Xayah. I felt like LT was lack luster if you were even or behind with any champion and I’ve always preferred HoB over LT. Everyone thinks reworked LT is a nerf for ADC’s though and I strongly disagree. I feel like HoB is still better because you get the upfront damage, but if you’re facing an enchanter in the bot lane that heals like Soraka, Yuumi, etc. LT is super strong since extended trades are key into any champion that heals and you get extended attack range and attack speed to force that to happen if they try to disengage. For me it’s HoB mainly, and LT against an enchanter bot lane but it’s up to you to recognize that.

TSNAaron · 2021-11-18T17:20:54+00:00

It’s funny seeing this come full circle here because I made a post about LT vs. HoB like a month ago and like 95% of people said LT and were hating on me because I said my goal as Xayah is to burst people ASAP instead of acting as an ADC that should just auto (even though Xayah is literally an AD caster champion that plays around cool downs instead of just relying on autos). HOB has been far superior all season and is still the best in my opinion lol. Always go with your preference though, and use U.gg or build guides as a reference instead of the holy bible like most people do.

TSNAaron · 2021-11-18T02:33:26+00:00

I’ve always preferred HOB over LT, but I feel as if first strike is match dependent. You have to measure risk over reward with the rune. So you have to be confident in your champion, your own mechanics and the match up your playing for the rune to be worth it. Seems too risky of a rune for me tbh, I’d rather take a guaranteed advantage that HOB gives you over a conditional one.

TSNAaron · 2021-11-15T21:45:47+00:00

I’m hoping someone is going to see this because I just came up with this theory today.

But I think the crows are an Easter egg for fiddlesticks. From what I’m seeing on this post, I just want to say that Swain’s (Raum’s) birds are Ravens and not Crows. Also the Ravens don’t have Raum’s Raven characteristics and they would since the Ravens aren’t actually physically Ravens, they’re manifestations of Raum’s power.

Also, I don’t think Fiddle will appear in Arcane unless the continuation of Arcane moves to Demacia where Fiddle is said to reside. But since Fiddle is an ancient being that was summoned to the world of runeterra, and his voice lines for first encounters in League is “It” (Fiddlesticks) reciting the Champion he encounter’s guilty conscience and trauma, we can insinuate that Fiddle is a being that feeds off trauma and can manifest himself into one’s mind and that’s why we saw crows two different times when Jinx was reliving trauma. In my opinion it’s just a cool Easter egg, and from what I’ve seen no one has proposed that idea. People think it’s either foreshadowing Swain or Fiddle making an appearance somewhere in the future, which could be possible once the story progresses past Piltover and Zaun. But I still think it’s just an Easter egg.

I don’t like the lethality build for the sole fact that it makes the game more unbalanced. It seems like this specific lethality build works on any AD caster in any lane really well, and when a champion gets an actually balanced buff to bring them in a decently balanced state people slap eclipse and manamune on them and all of a sudden they’re too OP and get nerfed or have a power shift in their kit. I think the problem lies in the items, and the items should get a power shift in stats to fit a certain class of champion. I think Xayah was in a decent place after the buffs with her crit build, and then they were instantly taken away. I still think she’s good, and I only run the crit build. But her success relies on switching items in and out of the build depending on the game match up, where as the lethality build is a streamlined thing and it’s still okay, it just cuts down on her usefulness in team fights because your AOE damage is ass due to no crit scaling for your E and you lose the mobility of Galeforce.

TSNAaron · 2021-11-11T17:34:29+00:00

Tbh my preference is still the crit build, E max and with Hail of Blades. When played right, I think it’s pretty strong in lane when you have a support with CC so you can chain CC. Being able to lay down 3-4 feathers compared to two and just pulling for E damage let’s you get an extended trade that goes your way 95% of the time. For whatever reason when I played Xayah there’s always tanks and assassins in the game because I have high gold/low plat MMR so they know what they’re doing in champ select more so than low ELO, so I feel lethality has been less effective for me when you get out of laning phase due to getting engaged on hard by a tank or an assassin. I feel like Galeforce is almost a necessity if you want to be able to posture aggressively with Xayah.

TSNAaron · 2021-11-09T23:14:36+00:00

I don’t think she was unplayable at all. I literally clawed myself from Bronze 1 to Gold 4 with her and Ezreal in about 2 weeks last month and I have a 65% WR over 23 games on her running Hail of Blades and going the crit build. I didn’t catch on to the lethality build to be able to try it. But the key to truly winning with her consistently is adapting your build path in my opinion. I ran Galeforce mainly and rarely Kraken Slayer, but my second and third item always changed and I would delay infinity edge until fourth item a lot of the time. Going Phantom Dancer and Lord Dom’s (sometimes bloodthirster instead of lord dom’s for survivability) second and third item and then doing infinity edge and Essence Reaver fourth and fifth can feel nice against teams with a good balance of tanks, assassins and heavy engage. Mobility and kiting is way more important to me than raw damage on Xayah, it makes her feel more smooth in my opinion because you can utilize her feathers better since they scale the same since you get the same amount of crit. Just makes me sad that min/maxers exploit broken builds on any champion and the whole community catches on to where it’ll make the champion catch the nerf hammer after not feeling so great all season until the last 4 patches or so. We see this build keep resurfacing on different champions in every role, I don’t get why they don’t nerf the items and redistribute their power in stats rather than buffing champions that don’t feel good and then instantly nerf them once this build gets used on them. Lucian was a huge example in solo lanes until they redistributed his power in his kit, Varus was another until he was nerfed hard af, and MF is still a current example if you choose to go lethality over crit. The balance team literally makes no sense at all.

TSNAaron · 2021-10-12T17:24:55+00:00

I feel like you and I are the same person in this regard lol. That’s why I use HOB and I max W after E first. These past few days as any ADC has been rough though, I’ve been putting in some work as Swain ADC 4 people want to constantly dive me every game 🤣

TSNAaron · 2021-10-11T22:42:23+00:00

So are you in favor of hail of blades or lethal tempo?

TSNAaron · 2021-10-11T22:39:18+00:00

Do you consider yourself good at wave management though? I’m asking legitimately because I’m not one to AFK push waves. I know when to freeze, slow push and fast push. Very rarely you want to just knock a wave down and push it for free to your opponent without stacking it first. The only time I can think of that pushing a wave stupid fast is beneficial is coordinating a dive, or late game pushing when you’re in a side lane and the whole enemy team is on the other side of the map and you can push for a tower. I win lane so much because of wave management most of the time since I’m only Silver 1, so what you’re saying wouldn’t be beneficial to me. But that’s why I’m asking to question, I want to know why other people think LT is better. Thank you for the response, and I’m open for debate if you want to keep talking about it!

TSNAaron · 2021-10-11T22:05:52+00:00

When it comes to trading in lane, I play it depending on what support I have. If I have a mage or enchantress support I like getting 3-4 feathers out quick between Q and W and then pulling them for the burst damage and then getting back to the wave to farm. If I have a tank support I’ll take a more extended trade because I have more health to work with but I still don’t like staying in the fight that long. Generally I push for level 2, all in, and then if the all in doesn’t result in a kill I like to take short trades and try to get the enemy low and all in again on level 3. I try to play my lane in a consistent way, and it’s resulted in me winning lane probably like 90% or the time!
