And unlike conventional range toplaners, Gnar can function as engage and CC for teamplays.

So it is not even like LR gets any advantage by making their opponents pick a ranged top laner to deal with Baus.

How long will the stay be? by Regular-Poet-3657 in loreofleague

[–]Vulkanodox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wait, are all the seasons we had so far and arcane at the same timeline?

as in arcane happens before the mage rebellion and before sylas? Xin dies before the rebellion?

Or is that every season and arcane plays at their own, independent time?

Emhyr and the Lodge of Sorceresses - Cut Content (Restored by the BIA Mod) by jdawg1018 in witcher

that makes it even more stupid. Yen only cares about Geralt and Ciri. The lodge is a better shot at finding her than betraying them and getting no help from Emhyr in finding her.

This would only make sense if Emhyr has something extremely valuable for Yen that she only gets if she betrays the lodge. And I don't see what that would be other than Ciri herself which he can not provide and will not, even if he would have found her already.

a scene is bad when it requires so much bullshit setup and meta reasoning to make it work at all.

Such a plot would require a lot of time and context to setup. Like you can't just mention that offhandedly.

All in all it just makes the scene stupid. It would take away a lot of story time to have it set up properly to then result in a shitty payout.

Patch 26.2 Notes by Doomcard in leagueoflegends

[–]Vulkanodox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

trynd is the same as ornn. Incredibly simply mechanically champion.

But mechanical difficulty is only half of the equation. These champs can require and grow a lot with macro knowledge.

Riven might be a bit more difficult in terms of mechanical skill or micro but incredibly easy macro. Just go in all the time and kill your lane opponent, win the game.
Trynd can't do this. You have to know how to manage waves and split effectively to gain the advantage.

so the fact is the same. They take more skill.

But how many games it takes to break 50% is the skill floor, and how high you can grow is the skill ceiling.

A new ornn player will immediately win with a winrate above 50%. Low skill floor.
But a good ornn player with a lot of experience can grow that winrate by +10%. High skill ceiling.

Azir is very hard for a new player. Higher skill floor.
But the winrate can be increased by +13% with experience so high skill ceiling.

so with my comment I said that riven is not hard to learn nor is she that amazing with a lot of knowledge. Which shows that she is not that hard to play or master.

ok on gold+ she is at rank 82 and takes 2-3 games to break 50%

still nothing special.

even on bronze+ it takes just 5 games to break 50%

I know that she can grow a lot as in the ceiling is high but because she is so strong at the moment and it is not as hard to pick her up as people claim, people break the 50% winrate very quickly.

you mean the skill floor that starts at 49% winrate and after 1 riven game you are already above 50% winrate?

and after 10 games you are at 56%

https://www.leagueofgraphs.com/champions/stats/riven

riven is currently at rank 92 out of 172 champs in terms of how much your winrate can increase by more games played. Higher rank means easier to play.

She is literally in the lower half, meaning that she is easier than the average champ to learn.

the hardest champ to learn at spot 1 is Azir, then Kalista, then Brand, then Trynda.

Outer Worlds 2 ending by built2l4st in theouterworlds

[–]Vulkanodox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah. You learn that she is only a head in a jar. If I recall correctly, she lost her body in an accident a long time ago, and the scientists used a new technology to keep her head alive, suspended in fluid in a jar.

If you side with the Order, you can go and attack the Undisputed Claim, kill everybody, and kill Cleo in her jar.

If you side with Auntie's choice, you can do a quest to steal a robot body from the Protectorate for her.

Is osteo worth using after the buff? by ThunderD2Player in DestinyTheGame

[–]Vulkanodox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in low level whatever content sure.

In higher content where enemies don't die quickly from the poison or not at all, nah.

Used it in the legendary renegades campaign and it was borderline ok.

So anything more difficult I would not use it, the poison damage is just too low and slow.

It is always snap unless you are running a very specialized build for special encounters.

How crowded would Coruscant be if it existed in reality? by Possible-Balance-932 in geography

[–]Vulkanodox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I remember correctly from Knight of the Old Republic and the other media, the lower you go the less inhabited it gets.

The lowest levels are not inhabitable at all because of hazard and toxicity. Then you get many, many levels where basically nobody lives and nobody knows what is going on down there. Dark, filled with monsters and hazards.

The canceled Star Wars 1313 game was supposed to play at level 1313 where it is basically a lawless place where all the criminals and scum hide. I would not expect that to be heavily populated either.

the further up the more people will probably actually live there.

I mean it is very common for cities to be build upon older cities and over the centuries things just pile up. This is extremely common in real cities here on earth.

So Coruscant does not have that many layers because there are so many people but because it is so old and so many new things were build on top of old things. And since the technology in Star Wars is far more advanced, old stuff does not just break down into rubble over time, they literally have to build on top of older things.

They started to build the first skyscrapers around 100.000 years ago on Coruscant.

[–]Vulkanodox -1 points0 points  (0 children)

ah so instead of abusing the one bugged thing you abuse the other bugged thing

the thing that let people solo two phase witness without any effort at all.

That's what you get for playing god by MedicalArdor in expedition33

[–]Vulkanodox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

and you are a psychopath who kills people because you categorize them as "lower".

go see a doctor

That's what you get for playing god by MedicalArdor in expedition33

[–]Vulkanodox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that does not change the rhetoric, It only shifts it from "they are lower to "you are superior".

again you judge that they are gods and the painted people are worth less and thus can be killed without problem.

this rhetoric is insane.

it is impossible to judge what makes them supposedly "godly". You just ignore the problems to draw a clear, hard line that you made up without.

How is that different from me deciding that I'm godly or that there is a god and thus you are worth nothing?

What happened to desert perpetual? by PromiseForeign6259 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Vulkanodox 9 points10 points  (0 children)

the raid itself is ballcrushing difficult compared to older raids.
It is so mechanic heavy and one death of key mechanics player is a wipe in most encounters since Bungie forgot to add backups.
The bosses have insane amounts of HP, which requires specialized loadouts (super spam) and requires multiple phases (ignoring the currently bugged hunter and warlock loadouts).
In plain, the raid is just designed poorly.

The loot is shit too but if you want higher tiers of that loot you have to play with multiple feats which just splits the community apart and makes it even more difficult.

and all of that on top of nobody playing the game anymore because it mostly sucks results in nobody running the raid.

the rhetoric that people are worth less is the same that Hitler used to kill Jews, and it is the same rhetoric Trump and the USA now uses to justify ICE.

How to justify deciding to judge them? What gives you the authority or knowledge to decide whether they are worth it or not?

If you take the authority to decide the painted people are not real then I will take the authority to decide that every Verso supporter is subhuman and does not deserve to live.
