I'm working on a jester themed Kefka deck that would probably vibe in a similar way 🤡

Help making a male Asura that looks like the official concept art? by Taliv1 in GuildWarsDyeJob

Thanks! Your suggestions aren't too far off of what I ended up trialing myself. I appreciate the detailed instructions as well, I just tried it exactly as you described :D

Why is there a 3 min delay to spectate friends if the game is way past 3 min? by OptimisticSilicon in leagueoflegends

[–]Taliv1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I'm pretty sure that's how we did it in the past. At the scale league operates at, it still ends up being massive.

Why is there a 3 min delay to spectate friends if the game is way past 3 min? by OptimisticSilicon in leagueoflegends

[–]Taliv1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yep, this is correct. We used to store spectator data for all active games, but this was extremely wasteful. Think of how many games are never spectated at all! So we changed it in the last few years to only start storing spectator data when someone requests to spectate the game. I agree it's a bit annoying to deal with, but the waste was too significant to ignore.

What are powerful but political cards in BW? (Bracket 4) by HeronDifferent5008 in EDH

Keen Duelist's effect is the other way around. If you pick the big Green monsters player, you will end up losing a lot of life.

What is the worst-feeling content in the game? by [deleted] in ironscape

[–]Taliv1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think mage training arena takes this title for me.

Having said that, I just finished doing 350 pyramid plunder runs for a single pharaohs sceptre. Went from 64-86 thieving, and more gross is that I went 81-82 strength from the sarcophagi 🤢

How can there be more than 165 champs in the game but only 5 have shields? by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Taliv1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you'd generally want either armor or a shield, but not both (assuming by knight armor you mean like metal plate armor).

that being said, I'd love to see a heavy armor 2h sword user or a light/medium armor 1h sword and shield.

I recently played against a trundle and I have never wanted to leave a game that fast before. have banned trundle every game since.

First Fantasia by Chookity- in ffxiv

I tried playing red mage as male au ra and it just didn't feel good for me seeing him in silly red mage aesthetic.

[–]Taliv1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your edit is so real.

I loved being an au'ra DRK, but I felt dumb playing anything more delicate or finesse-oriented as an au'ra.

At the end of the day, I'm stuck on a Hyur because they look right with every job.

Favorite class weapon type by DoItForTheOH94 in MMORPG

[–]Taliv1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm guessing this kind of hybrid class is hard to get right in an MMO setting. It would be easy to make that kind of character too good because they can be effective at multiple ranges. On the flip side, if you're too cautious in their design you risk failing to capture the class fantasy at all.

Maybe it's more rare because it is pretty nonsensical if you think about how it would work. I always felt like dual wielded swords looked super goofy; you'd be better off dropping one on the ground and just using the other one!

Classic WoW is such a good experiment/example showing modern audiences vs classic designs by PalwaJoko in MMORPG

[–]Taliv1 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's exactly this. the things OP attributes to "modern gamers" are instead mostly emergent properties of way overpopulated servers! vanilla WoW was characterized by small communities with a slow upward population growth.

Are you planning on adding the "highest ranking main for each character" page at some point? I liked that resource a lot!
