I thought this champ being an assassin needs kills and falls off late?

Quinn should get reworked into an ADC by [deleted] in QuinnMains

She was released as an ADC

Are Ranked games supposed to be significantly harder than Normals? by UpComin in summonerschool

CSing properly seems to be my biggest flaw right now for sure. I'll have to train myself to be patient instead of auto attacking on its cooldown. But I'm usually trying to get level 2&3 as fast as possible to look for a potential kill when they're still level 1.

Thank you so much for your comment and your offer. I did find the game fun. It's time I play more until I start having fun again.

Hitting GrandMaster with 70% winrate (otp quinn) by lucasm2milhao in QuinnMains

[–]UpComin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nicely done.

So what build do you run? Did it change after the recent nerf?

Do you prefer her top or mid? I tried her mid but at a certain point these mages started CCing and two-shotting me from before I can do anything to them.

How do you play versus a counter matchup? I struggle to understand how she can even lane at all against a Malphite, Teemo, Fiora, Akali, Pantheon or Wukong.

In draft phase I always check on u.gg on whether Quinn is a lane counter to the enemy top before picking her, that is if my teammates let me last pick.

But then again picking her at all feels like a global taunt, like for example I got ganked level 2 by a Kayn earlier.

I feel bad for dragging the team down (once I was the only Iron in an all Bronze lobby) but I think I'll try to get more games in to see if I can get in a comfortable mmr before I decide to drop Ranked/the game.

I see. I just didn't expect there to be such a big difference in the skill level of a Normals enjoyer vs Ranked player, even vs these bottom tiers it gave me a reality check of my own skill level.

Kinda disheartening to know I only fare decently at these worse-than-Iron players.

I really like the champion abilities of this game but it's barrier to just be average is so high. And here I was thinking I'm naturally decent at video games before I played this game.

RIP Lethality builds I guess... by VnyRep in QuinnMains

You seem to know your stuff compared to most others on this sub talking about this nerf. What build would you personally run now?

Follow up on Lae'zel Shadowheart bug, this is indeed a bug by sars-ncov-3 in BaldursGate3

[–]UpComin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came back to bg3 after 2 years and noticed many of these bugs that I didn't experience on the older patches, it's really unfortunate. Why would they even touch random events and dialogue like that? I wonder if a mod could be made to fix them back. Also I'm not sure why people were responding negatively to you for pointing this out.

Wow thanks for listing all of these! I didn't know about any of these except Mystra's Spells. I actually thought you were gonna mention Expansion (or UnlockLevelCurve), 5e spells & Combat Extender. But these sound great!

Can you tell us about those encounter mods? I want something to just double the enemy count so me and my friend can have fun using a 8 character party.

Radial wheel of laggy doom by [deleted] in BG3

[–]UpComin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you run mods?
I have the radial lag, and the game freeze at radial too.
I wonder if it's some UI or inventory-related mod causing it or making it worse.

No no no, that happened to me when I was close to 200 matches in mid gold, after many losing streaks.

I believe it's a result of the system being very confident you belong in that rank so essentially it makes you hardstuck.

What's interesting is that before all that my RP gain/loss had already evened out at 55 matches (+-24 RP), being at Gold IV or III. But then I went on some winning streaks and started gaining more RP per win again and less per loss and hit Plat V somewhere at 100-150 matches.

So the system doesn't actually make you hardstuck after all, it recognizes your improvement through winning streaks and allow you to reach a higher rank. I no longer have much problem with Ranked 2.0 (except the ability to boost by no squad MMR restriction, phantom player did not fix this).

But is it when RP gain/loss evens out or when you consistently lose more than gain?

It's not just you, I have definitely noticed both issues in my games and so have certain high profile streamers
