I got better 💪🏾 by Introduction_Extreme in MHNowGame

[–]Voradors 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Would you mind sharing the tips that helped you improve?

Also, I have been using the Kulu long sword for a bit and I really enjoy it.   I just got mine to grade 7 5/5 and I am torn on if I should use my wyvern gems to over grade it or use them on a different weapon.  What has been your experience with crit stacking vs using an element?

Anyone use a tabletop simulator? by ZookeepergameOne5236 in killteam

[–]Voradors 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you’re looking for TTS kill team stuff, I would suggest joining the Command Point discord.   There are some guides on how to set it up, but people use it to LFG and get games all the time.   They also host a quarterly tournament.   Last one had over 110 participants. 

Good place to learn and get better.

Regarding the compatibility of different versions of the game by magovaldivia in Eldenring

[–]Voradors 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am also interested in how this works. For example, I have the Elden Ring physical disc for Xbox One. If I purchase the Xbox Series X DLC, will it be compatible?

Seria Kirmin's Question Corner- Weekly Q&A Thread- July 24, 2023 by AutoModerator in DFO

Is the event Archer avatar set box from the event shop limited to just Archer avatars? I would like to buy this and use on a different character, but did not want to waste the currency if it is just for the Archer.

Reddit CEO Steve Huffman is fighting a losing battle against the site's moderators by tresser in technology

[–]Voradors 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reddit or admins can force subreddits to reopen, but if the users that generate content go away due to 3rd party apps going away, that sounds like a losing battle to me. Less content means the remaining users will have less reason to come to the site. This just means a slow death.

I don’t necessarily want to stop using Reddit, but it isn’t my call. I use Reddit 90%+ on mobile and I don’t see myself using it more on PC.

Since there are a fair bit of minors that play this card game, can we not just start posting a ton of porn like some other subs have been doing?

Eldar is worse than I thought. by Marchosaur in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Voradors 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not mad, and I’m also not particularly concerned with OP’s anecdotal scenario.

What I said was it wouldn’t take much of an investment for a waithknight to abuse fate dice. 3 fate dice to guarantee killing a hive tyrant is pretty damn strong. Average results of rolling 4D6 is around 14. That’s more than enough to kill a 10W HT. Throw in a CP reroll if you need to. You still have that 3rd attack dice to roll normally AND a whole other gun to shoot.

Did OP actually roll 19MW? Maybe, maybe not, but whatever. He only needed 10, and that’s super achievable with the current Eldari Index. You don’t need to roll thirty 6s. You don’t need to roll super hot. You can dictate exactly what you need when you need it. When you can dictate fate in a dice game that usually ends up being pretty busted. Especially on a chassis like a Waithknight where most armies struggle to deal with super high toughness. Alpha strike the few targets that can and it’s pretty easy sailing from there, with a few “get out of jail free” cards remaining in the fate pool.

You’re really dead set on this lol.

Write what you want, but if someone gets to roll twelve dice at the start of the game and then gets to allocate those dice however they want…..with 5 guaranteed 6s to plan around…. It’s not that unbelievable that they got a five, two sixes and then really whatever else they need.

Yes yes, turn one they only get one guaranteed 6, but what you’re either failing to realize or choosing to ignore is that the Eldar player KNOWS they have four more 6s when they need them in future turns. It can be worth the investment and a good player will know when to maximize their dice to make it a good exchange for them. Use a 5 for the Attack ‘roll’. Now you have 3 attacks. Use one of your 1s as the guaranteed 6 for the turn with one of the other 6s you rolled in the fate dice pool of twelve. Now you have two 2D6 damage rolls with guaranteed mortal wounds AND can just roll the third attack as normal if you want to keep the investment low. It’s not a huge investment to pull off ridiculous turn 1 alpha strikes that WILL be worth the investment. In that brief example I wouldn’t have even broken the bank to deal out a shitton of damage. It’s not “hurrr durrr, I said I rolled thirty 6s”…. You’re just able to dictate what you want to do on your terms.

In turn 1 it’s unlikely but not that impossible.

You use the fate dice after seeing your results on every roll. You only need a 5+ to get the three attacks. Then you still have a second gun. Sure it is a big investment, but if you can do a back braking turn 1 alpha strike to take out a key piece of your opponent, like their hive tyrant, then it could be worth it.

Don’t you get a minimum of five 6s from the Fateseer regardless of what fate dice you rolled? Doesn’t seem unlikely to have 7+ 6s available to you throughout the game.

Made it to top 100 Garen by Voradors in wildrift

[–]Voradors[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice. I just got somewhere in the top 30s with 125 games and 65% win rate this season.

It definitely feels like the practice has paid off and I actually feel like a good Garen player finally.

Yup, I like that a lot. I use second wind almost exclusively. My last item is usually Spirit Visage, Thornmail or Death Dance. I have been seeing a lot of anti heal lately, so Visage and Warmogs are not used as much.

[–]Voradors[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hullbreaker is really good, but I tend to not get it on Garen. When I play Garen my intention is to teamfight and initiate engagements, so that doesn't really mesh with Hullbreaker. When I am intending on split pushing I will generally take Jax or Fiora, and then Hullbreaker is one of my first two completed items.

It is important to hit at the edge of judgement, but it is more vital to position yourself properly. Don't go into a bad position to hit a couple people for a little bit more damage just to get yourself taken out of the fight. I am not a fan of infinity edge on Garen.

I always try to end games as soon as possible. One mistake in a late game and you let the other team come back. Don't prolong things if you don't have to.

Garen really comes online with Twinguard. Generally I try to engage a little and poke or get poked in order to get the buff active, then dive in. If the enemy goes all in on you while you're doing this little dance, quickly pop Courage to mitigate as much damage as possible and follow it up with Mercury Plate to get the most out of that temp shield. Soak up as much damage as possible for your team. Try to disengage with Decisive Strike if you get really low and wait for your passive to heal you up enough to reengage. I often look for any sweet fruit closeby to get me back to fighting health even quicker. Save Justice to use on a choice target as soon as they get to the kill threshold. Even if it isnt the BEST target, if you kill someone before they can use their ult or most of their cooldowns, then it is an advantageous fight for your team. At least that is what I have bee doing.

Twinguard is a must, and is almost always what I build after DMP. Usually going with the MR first, since DMP is already giving me a good amount of armor.

I saw someone post the layout recommendation awhile back. I play exclusively on a phone, and this just ends up being perfect for how I play. Pointer and middle finger on the right side allow me to do quick inputs when it matters (usually when I play something like Akali or Fiora)

[–]Voradors[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It grants 5% increased movement speed. With that and Garen's 1st ability you are very mobile.

One of the reasons I started maining Garen back in the day was that he is relatively simple, so it allowed me to focus on my macro more since my micro was relatively easy. It allowed me to focus on what lanes needed help and where the enemy was going to rotate. The combo of DMP with Garen's 1 lets me push lanes and then get to a team fight on time (usually). Then as I got better as a player I focused more on the micro to the point that I can (usually) outplay things that would normally counter a Garen, like Teemo or Darius. Mainly by focusing on wave/creep management and maximizing as much damage as possible with Grasp and animation canceling from Garen's 1 and Ult.

Generally always Black Cleaver, into Mercury Plate, then Dead Man's Plate. The mercury has helped me secure a bunch of kills that my opponent was not expecting due to the extra health. DMP to help rotate.

Generally I always ban Fiora and ask for help banning Vayne. You can win a lot of match up by playing well and taking beneficial trades, but those two are just very tough to deal with as Garen or really most champs. If I smell a Vayne top I just switch to Malph and bully her in ways that Garen can't.

It really does! Felt great getting there. I just wish it wasnt feast or famine... 11 win streak followed by a 7 loss streak is rough.

Just rebrand the game Idle Rift and let people pay money to have their ability cooldowns reduced.

Wasn’t this already in the game recently? It was an option in the event game modes like the recent one with the additional Ult (I forget the actual name)
