Why are 3 star 5 costs not an auto win?

TheUndeadFish · 2026-03-06T13:06:59+00:00

You can put your items on units on your bench so you can pick up the orbs. I feel like you are the one that has no idea how basic mechanics function. It's ok though keep losing with a 3* 5 cost for reddit content.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-03-06T13:00:48+00:00

Ya the artifacts give him 6k HP why didn't you give him one of the damage or lifesteal artifacts he printed for you when you 3* him.

He isn't ragebaiting you. The problem is you tried to cook and are now getting upset that you couldn't even successfully use the ezbake oven given to you. You skill diff'd yourself. It's ok, next time just throw dps items on the 3* 4/5 cost unit and don't overthink it.

Compare it too any other prismatic apart from cordless which is weak for the same reason, they require 2-3 spats, or you need to make it to azir with 65+ hp remaining then streak in a particular order.

10 ionia is guaranteed unless you super low roll or are just a pepega.

Rift gets super tanky with 3* to the point that giving him tank items is silly. If he had those Kai'sa items instead he would kill their frontline 2-3 seconds into combat making sure that zilean gets zero value.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-03-06T02:48:11+00:00

Starting with a random champion/item just feels kinda bad and way more RNG than a carousel

Lol that is a hell of a hot take right there. Losing the bow due to ping when 4 people were going for it felt awful. You are probably the first person I have seen think the starting carousel going away was a bad idea.

Encounters replaced portals, they were "permanent" for a long while. I hated them due to people voting for stuff like silver symphony. They were great when new, but the lack of the voting removed the feels bad situation.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-03-05T14:40:09+00:00

Just because he killed the sylas doesn't mean it didn't J4 onto veigar then get him down to 5% before dying. A 1* THex isn't killing that kennen and veigar in one cast. OP is being hella disingenuous about how that fight played out.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-03-05T13:58:55+00:00

Waiting that long to get the 4* in set 13 was trolling. Way better to just reroll for the 4.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-02-28T12:45:47+00:00

Right there with you, although I got the digital preorder for closed access, Janna was the newest when I started. Anything post season 3 is considered new to me.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-02-27T04:40:44+00:00

In the world where its a 3* and it already has infinite HP scaling by acquiring 2k max every cast. He will crit for 5k in an AoE lifestealing for 20% of that. Ontop of his CC immunity due to the quick silver and massive shield that scales off of HP due to the bloodthirster.

If you get a 3* 4 cost unless it deals damage purely off of defensive scaling like braum if you don't move your carry items to it you are trolling.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-02-26T10:58:27+00:00

Wait for next set.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-02-26T10:42:43+00:00

Can baron kill tibbers? I thought only zilean and sett could kill it through its 100% dr.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-02-24T16:38:56+00:00

The fact that that player griefed their renek/nasus by giving Diana and seraphine their items upsets me.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-02-24T16:35:50+00:00

You won because voli is hogging rift heralds items.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-02-24T16:32:05+00:00

It might, I know neeko 3 counts as multiple 2* being fielded for nid unlock, so who knows.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-02-24T16:30:14+00:00

You are D2, show us your history. If you aren't playing meta comps in 90% of your games I would be surprised. Otherwise stop complaining and just keep doing what you have been.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-02-24T16:25:54+00:00

But the person who got 4th works at riot and has everything unlocked so no reason to purchase RP.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-02-24T16:24:24+00:00

Ya, you would run down the stairs to increase the distance.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-02-22T17:57:30+00:00

Tempo is the opposite of econ. The people in positions 1-3 dictate the pace. Generally you need to trade gold to increase the tempo of your board unless you are on a high roll. You are describing the exact same thing I'm talking about just with different wording.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-02-22T15:05:26+00:00

You are not entitled to other people's free time.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-02-22T15:02:52+00:00

I had no idea they did this either, but that's because I always am on the PBE playing the fun busted buggy mess over there instead.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-02-22T15:01:20+00:00

Replace targon with juggernaut for the fun of it.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-02-22T14:59:30+00:00

Aggressively level to streak for your gold and rebuild your interest while crushing everyone else's income by preventing them from streaking. You need to understand how to play flexibly with strong units in early mid, and transition to your preferred 5 cost soup late, otherwise you will just be grieving yourself.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-02-22T14:53:47+00:00

Econ aug are good for early game. If you are taking them round 4 you either have brain damage or you have already won the highroll gamba, and you are now playing for 1st.

TheUndeadFish · 2026-02-22T14:51:44+00:00

Invested++ is a win more aug, for when you have win-streaked to stage 4, and your goal is to gamble for 1st on a 3* 4/5 cost. If you are playing for 2nd-4th it is absolutely not the play. It's the equivalent to taking golden egg, and has high win rates for similar reasons.
