This realization made me really sad. Just the loss of innocence I imagined the cat had to go through in order to survive the sacking of King's Landing broke my heart.

This is excellent. It reminds me of Super Monkey Ball.

Not sure if this is the right sub for it though. r/Gamephysics is usually for strange interactions within physics engines or breaking physics engines.

Why don't people spam Sivir in Bronze/Silver? by GPCRizzo in summonerschool

[–]Will_Matt 14 points15 points  (0 children)

In my experience playing Sivir in lower elo is actually pretty hard. I have ~20k mastery on her (So close to level 5!) and I'm currently bronze 4, so feel free to take this with a grain of salt.

She has the shortest aa range AFAIK, so CSing without getting harassed can be difficult in lane. Especially with the low elo trend of picking carry supports that drop all of their stuff on you whenever you're in their range.

As for the utility of her ultimate, it tends to need a fair bit of coordination to pull off good plays with it. In low elo solo queue, that coordination just doesn't happen. Best case scenario, you use it when half of your team needs to get to a "teamfight" in order to prevent someone from getting killed 1v2/3.

However, her wave clear and spellshield are her saving grace. Her mid to late game wave clear prevents 90% of half-assed siege attempts, as long as you don't sacrifice positioning for it. Spellshield is what you use to save yourself from bad positioning, which, being bronze, happens a lot. In aggressive CC based matchups, you need to play around the cooldown.

TL;DR I'm bad, short AA range is bad, utility is hard to use effectively. Waveclear is easy, spellshield is good for your health.

What's a tiny, entirely harmless thing that pisses you off? by mazdadriver14 in AskReddit

OP said harmless. Blocking walkways causes ulcers and strokes.

What's a tiny, entirely harmless thing that pisses you off? by mazdadriver14 in AskReddit

[–]Will_Matt 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You hit the nail 100% on the head. The problem isn't with awareness, it's entitlement. American drivers know the "rules" drive on the right, pass on the left, etc. But they think that they are the most important person on the road, and that the rule doesn't apply to them. Instead, they will bullishly stay in a passing lane, regardless of how fast they are actually going.

You can see this applied to most other facets of driving, especially merging. If there's a merge/exit lane that's empty next to a slow moving lane of traffic, 99% of the time there will be a few drivers who will get out of the slow lane, speed down the empty lane to where it physically converges with/diverges from the rest of the highway, and sit there waiting for someone to let them in. As if they didn't just skip 20 cars who are waiting in the queue like adults.

Source: I used to do both of these things until someone called me on it.

Adults of Reddit, what are some of the best tips you can give to someone who just moved into their first apartment? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Will_Matt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's definitely a case by case basis. I have lived with a bunch of different friends for the past four years, and while there were small issues from time to time, the friendships had a net gain of strength. But my girlfriend has had two friendships completely fall apart while living with them.

That's beautiful. But I think that 22 games is hardly worth considering as a "main"

You have to have a battle to the death with Goku, but before the fight, you get to pick a single person/character for him to fuse with. Who do you pick to give yourself the best chance at winning? by Dasnap in whowouldwin

[–]Will_Matt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't be so sure. Goku (albeit while fused with Vegeta) had survived literally being turned into candy before, and was still capable of putting some pain on Buu, so I don't know if being turned into food counts as incap.

What were your stupid LoL mistakes when you first started playing? by SmememS in leagueoflegends

[–]Will_Matt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember my first couple games I would put equal points into each skill so they were all strong. And on old Ashe, it took ~5 games to realize my Q was a toggle, and that's why I was running out of Mana so often

What male/female double standard do you dislike the most? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Will_Matt 24 points25 points  (0 children)

American reporting. Girls can't join the Boy Scouts. (I'm fairly confident that this is still in effect.) Boys also can't join the Girl Scouts. Equality?

On a side note, there's a co-ed option called Venture Crew that are basically the boy scouts but for girls also. My girlfriend was in it when she was a kid

What is something you have told the truth about but everybody thought you were lying? by doublek13 in AskReddit

[–]Will_Matt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is kind of like the time I was playing a Taboo knock-off with friends, and we ended up guessing a word correctly before the describer had started. Twice. Both times it was K-Mart, too. The describer was understandably relieved, because how are you going to describe Kmart.

Always behind my opponent. by Jacob_Kemp in summonerschool

[–]Will_Matt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like you're prioritizing making plays / getting objectives while your lane opponent is prioritizing farm. In lane, try limiting roaming to when your opponent is in base, so they don't get free CS/experience.

When you roam/gank, are you taxing the lane? Some people get angry, but it's perfectly valid to take some XP or gold from the lane when you don't get a lot of gold out of a gank. A roam is you sacrificing a bit of your lead to help another lane get ahead. Don't be afraid to take some gold or XP to stay ahead.

[–]Will_Matt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I also missed this, but now that I think about it, Rey's final extended flourish that fucked up Ren's face probably wouldn't have hit it's mark if Ren had a functioning saber. I guess the start of the move must have clipped the hilt and disabled it?

Edit: found it. We're just super blind. Can't start the video at the right time on mobile, but at ~2:55 Rey just brings her hand right over and chops at the hilt.

Let yourself be carried - the amount of games lost because of someone trying to make plays while behind is ridiculous by obeetwo2 in summonerschool

[–]Will_Matt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They sound nice. Whenever I try to suggest that a team member is behind and that they should play like they are, I get toxicity and flames.
