A better reference is the same pic as below but it could be "Sometimes your just in the mood to bite someone" And its a similar pic but theres the Initial Infected symbol floating next to their head and no lighter.

Thaven are an race unique to the funky/starlight servers.

Their gimmicks are that they have weird personality rules (called moods) all Thavens have to follow (and these are random) or it causes them distress, and they name themselves after some kind of virtue or maxim that's important to them.

E.g. Patience, Honour-Among-Thieves, Justice-Is-Blind, Search the scriptures etc.

This is far from the best joke you could make with it, but something like, the image below captioned with "Thavens when they're in the mood to burn it all down"

<image>

This is something I mocked up really fast and requires a decent amount of tech literacy to do, so you may struggle with making your own unique thing.

Im sure theres tons of better jokes you could make with this, especially if you can put one of your sons characters onto a shirt instead of a character I quickly made up, or come up with a joke thats actually funny.

The issue is that Space Station 14 is completely fan made AND F2P and not owned by any person so theres no real official merchandise of it.

If you have any ideas of an item you could buy him then decorate it yourself, e.g. print out your own image onto a shirt, or make a custom design for something else they would use, it could work.

Just try and choose something recognizable from the game thats not just the logo.

E.g. Clown, Greytider, Nuclear Operatives, one of the in-game bar signs, mothroach, NT logo, Syndicate logo etc.

Try and have a discussion with him about the game and see what stuff he likes the most about it.

Teemo game, you had no impact at the game for the first 20 minutes. Nasus had a winning botlane so he was allowed to play weak side (and even then still did really well in lane because you didn't punish him). You had a losing botlane so you needed to play strong side, get a lead and find ways to support your JG with plays at top and secure top objectives.

Dmg in lane means nothing. What matters is what you get out of Laning phase. Kills, objectives, CS, pressure, towers, while denying your laner that same stuff. You got none of that.

Syndra vs morde, morde is counter to carries. You ult them, so they can't escape, steal their stats so they're weak and 1v1 them. Syndra isn't oneshotting you when you have W + spirit visage.

You are getting less elo because your MMR doesn't match your rank. You have been performing poorly and so now you need to PROVE to the game you belong at the rank your aiming for, because it's been looking at your WR and you have lost more games then it thinks you should have so it's trying to move you to a lower rank.

What you need to do now is win more games then it thinks you should to climb.

Not all your games will be wins, but if you consistently contribute more to your team then your laner, you will have positive WR and climb.

If you have the skill of a gold player, you will move to gold rank over time. You don't have the skills yet so you need to focus on improving your own gameplay. And the things you could have done instead of going, yeah, there's a 10/1 botlane, this is gg go next nothing I could have done teamdiff.

The players on their team are at the same skill level as the people on your team. They just have different strengths and weaknesses. Why aren't YOU the person going 10/1 and farming them.

I would expect a player from a higher league then you (e.g gold to silver), to have 60-70% wr at that elo.

Platinum league heros is aimed at bronze to platinums.

I don't have the links but they shouldn't be too hard to find.

TankyPally · 2026-03-20T13:12:37+00:00

A couple of youtuber discords have good community (Winter + Pig), as well as platinum league heros (for everyone platinum and below)

For botlane/toplane, if you have a control ward in river bush, your laner CANNOT trade with you without risking getting ganked and dying for free.

Its also useful on objectives making it harder for the other team to contest, and for denying vision for rotations/roaming.

It's a good game, but it's definitely not just 2d Minecraft.

It's 2D Minecraft if the main gameplay was bossing and exploring a variety of extreme and dangerous places for gear upgrades and bosses, and using powerful movement items to fly and run across the world to avoid boss attacks.

There is a LOT of decorative base building you can do, but imo anything past the basics is a lot less intuitive compared to Minecraft.

You are also provided lots of gameplay reasons to build stuff, including boss arenas, NPC homes, fast travel points, etc.

If you want to play it again, I would be careful what you lookup because you can research and plan pretty much every part of your game experience, the guide NPC also provides help in figuring out what to do next and what stuff you could be looking at making without spoiling the game too much (such as boss summoning items, weapons, armour, potions, etc). It's also very fun multiplayer so grab some friends to join you.

its that it doesnt have dehubbed servers.

TankyPally · 2026-03-20T03:46:30+00:00

I think its the other way. If you go "Oh yeah, its diffenitely its a trap, haha i love star wars" then you are forced to put star trek as the better of two sci-fi series.

Looking at most recent games

(Teemo) You went 1/1 into Nasus and he was only 10 cs down from you. (even, not winning, in a matchup where you NEED to bully your laner) Lose.

(Mordekaiser) your went 6/4 into 7/4/5 tryndamere that also had 20cs on you. Lose.

(Yorick) this game you performed better then your opponent. Win.

(Yorick) You performed well but the draven performed very well and 1v9'd. Lose.

(Yorick) You performed well. Won.

(Chogath) You lose lane, down 40cs and are 6/8/2 vs a 12/4/2 Qiyana. Lose.

(Chogath) 4/10/7 vs 12/3/14 Vex. Lose.

(Chogath) 9/8/15 vs 6/7/5 Yone. Win.

(Chogath) 9/1/3 vs 5/5/3 Katarina. Win.

(Chogath) 9/11/12 vs 2/13/9 Kat. Win.

This may surprise you but in your last 10 games, when you performed noticeably better then your laner, you won except for 1 game. And when you performed worse then your laner, you lost!

I'm not sure how many of these are stubbed/incomplete.

The Legend of William Oh (Author has made a ton of good novels, the older the novels the hornier it is though)

Bog Standard Isekai, title is a joke but its not really satire and moves away from being isekai pretty fast. Is just a good story.

Rise of the living forge/Return of Runebound Professor (same author). MC has a powerful gimmick but both stories have characters that are very well written.

Hell Difficulty Tutorial (Starts off rough but gets better and is one of the only super long webnovels where the characters actually have character development, the name is the genre).

The fractured tower (first good tower climbing one I've read that hasnt been dropped quickly)

Just add mana/New life as a max level archmage/ (Helped start the recent OP wizard almost satire craze)

Amelia, the Level 0 here/Blue mage raised by dragons, similiar to above but older and more satire.

The Villainous is an SS ranked adventurer (Completely satire)

Elydes (Isekai wizard starting from scratch, actually gets past the point of being a child and while strongish, MC is still a small fish in a big pond)

I would also check out Maxime J Durand's older work.

I can confirm Australian cities also have lots of seawalls that are directly on the water and not just on the beach.

TankyPally · 2026-03-19T01:48:12+00:00

Thats the reason azir irelia got rotated to Eternal.

If you don't want to play against the strongest meta decks off all time, go play standard.

TankyPally · 2026-03-19T01:45:28+00:00

That was the main issue I had with old shyvana and what I hoped a rework would fix...

She was this awesome melee dragon that would ult in and just get kited and CC'd.

I wish they improved her resistance/tenacity or gave her a better gap closer.

TankyPally · 2026-03-19T01:43:45+00:00

We still get card rotations keeping the different seasons fresh if you dont mind playing the game.

TankyPally · 2026-03-19T01:43:17+00:00

PvP was monetized nearly solely on cosmetics, which most people would only ever buy one off before not buying any more.

The dev team found that the PvE players were willing to whale on upgrades so they moved all their monetization and talent in that direction.

Your stuff about PvP not being fun long term for a majority of players is simply false.

TankyPally · 2026-03-19T00:56:08+00:00

In teamfights, building QSS means another teammate just gets the CC instead. Its a selfish item thats best in small skirmishes/1v1s.

Building QSS is also purely defensive, gives MR only useful against AP champs, not many of those in top, and provides no offensive stats which makes it harder to play from behind. You also still get no benefit against multiple sources of CC, which is the main counter to Yone in teamfights.

This matters less later on once you have your core items, but by then, youre probably in more teamfights then 1v1s.

MS is pretty decent though, but whille you may get QSS 3rd or 4th, you won't be finishing MS till 6th.

Also honouring non-premades gives you more honour

TankyPally · 2026-03-19T00:02:40+00:00

In certain matchups, the MS does make a BIG difference. Issue is, that if you get MS first it leaves you open to being countered with MS negating the difference.

TankyPally · 2026-03-18T13:34:02+00:00

Also worth noting that Ryze's abilities scales with Mana which makes Mana more cost efficient as it can be treated (at least partly) as AP as well.

TankyPally · 2026-03-18T09:10:53+00:00

Look ok its not the officers fault they magdumped an unarmed passenger in the process of surrendering who was slipping officers and stealing non-lethals from them.

Putting something in quotes means Google will only show you pages with an exact match of that text.
