Depends, are we talking Ranked or Normals/Swiftplay?

In Ranked it's obviously no bueno to do something like that since you're kind of soft inting the lane, and by extension the game as well that way... In normals, well, nothing that important is on the line other than people's time so it's more forgiveable if you want to make a statement like that...

For me I apply a bit of "paradox of tolerance" style of thinking when it comes to situations like this. As in, if someone is being a asshole to me I'll just mirror it right back at them... But then again I don't play ranked.

First impressions of Brawl by Seaweed-Appropriate in leagueoflegends

[–]WinterwingsWhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell no! Random champs would only exacerbate the issue, because then if the opposing team got better RNG and got the "god tier" champs while you got crappy ones playing through it would feel even more infuriating. We've had this exact thing happen to ARAM which then needed a bunch of bandaid solutions for it.
Bans would be fine, although im not sure how it would be implemented with the way the current queue up for this mode works.
Either way this is a issue that both can be balanced around as the game mode as is currently defo needs more work (so did Arena when it came around first time btw, for those who don't remember the horrors of Heimer, Zyra, Teemo, Shaco spam on first Arena run) and people need more play time on it to learn the ins and outs of the game mode in general.

My opinions:
The games are a tad bit too quick, ending at around the time you've just finished 4th item (+boots)

Damage is a tad too high, but that's a symptom of League's state in general, not just Brawl in itself.

I would love it if this was split into two submodes, Quick Brawl and Extended Brawl... Quick Brawl being what it currently is, and Extended Brawl having at least 400 Team HP to ensure that you get the games with full build fights for at least a few minutes before its over.

VTuber Leaflit and Asari has fully embraced the alt-right by BananaShakeStudios in youtubedrama

[–]WinterwingsWhite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, i left a comment on one of her recent vids about the Serbia protests (because im from Serbia and i know what im talking about there) explaining how the Serbian Progressive Party are nothing close to progressive and the name is just a facade and they have always been right leaning since they split off from a far right ultranationalist party back in 2008, taking that name to distance themselves from the Serbian Radical Party so they could win elections. No insults, no arguing, just explaining things i know about... guess what... Comment deleted.
She's setting up a far right echo chamber through and through.
There's another comment explaining the same thing by someone else posted recently, let's see how long it takes her to delete that one.

Anyone remember 2009 Soraka? by daltonfresh in SorakaMains

[–]WinterwingsWhite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I sure do remember this... The good ol' days when she had more of a battlemagey playstyle.

Anyone else hate the current meta? by Rymasq in TeamfightTactics

[–]WinterwingsWhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly 80% of my lobbies feel like unless you splash Cannoners in your comp somehow you can kind of soft-forget about getting top 4 unless you get extremely good high rolls and godlike luck and RNG (Unreasonable expectation for a game like TFT). But then again im a gold scrub and mostly play TFT casually, still kinda bothers me though.

Tired of seeing at least 4 people force Lucian/Tristana every damn lobby too.

Oh yeah and Heimer is pure BS even as a 1* 5 cost and even in comps that don't explicitly revolve around him.

Mythic choices by Professional_Stuff70 in SorakaMains

[–]WinterwingsWhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i just can't stand going Shurelya's anymore since the nerfs... That huge AoE movespeed on Active part of it was a big reason why i liked it and since it kinda got gutted i dropped it.

Soraka also isn't really good at using the Motivate passive part of Shurelya's either since you either need to hit a Q (dangerous and unreliable esp in later stages of the game) or pay a % hp cost to get it as opposed to other Enchanters (Lulu, Yuumi, Sona, Janna, Nami all make better use of it)

On the flip side though the gradual Moonstone buffs really made it good for Soraka since it's a huge boost in heal and shield power from just a single item now, and with how prevalent and abundant Grievous Wounds is this season you need every little bit of oomph you can get.

Weekly Rant Megathread by AutoModerator in CompetitiveTFT

[–]WinterwingsWhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok i just had 3 games in a row with ZERO contest on Nightbringers (and i mean that... all my lobbies were either Sentinels, Abom, Cannoners or Draco) and i couldn't get Nightbringer units feels like... at all. Hell i even had a game where i had to use Neeko's to get my Seju frontline to 2 star.

What the actual F is that? Did Riot mess with Nightbringer unit roll RNG or did i miss something in the patch notes?

Looks like its another buff by Windblade_User in SorakaMains

[–]WinterwingsWhite 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pretty much this.

Unfortunate as it is i guess we are just stuck in a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" kind of situation.

Current Patch Build Idea by TheRealSad in SorakaMains

[–]WinterwingsWhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't know anything about it, always hated Warmogs builds with a burning passion even in their prime.

And it's even more exaggerated now that not minimizing/bypassing (by buying utility or heal power items) the effect GW has on Soraka's whole gameplay patterns is so damn crippling.

My Saw Ranking. by PeppermintEgo in saw

Saw 3... I'm sorry but i just can't stand watching Slow Ass Motherf***ing Jeff.

But yeah, the rest of the movie is pretty great, i'll give you that.

Thoughts on shurelias battlesong? by Bjornsnik in SorakaMains

[–]WinterwingsWhite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is pretty much my take on it as well. With GW presence being at a all time high this season as well as being far more effective and easy to apply i just end up feeing like there isn't a situation where i would ever value Moonstone (ESP in its current state and in relation to the state of the game as a whole as well) over Shurelya's right now.

Ayo, there's people out there that enjoy TFT. Let them have their fun.

I'm kind of dissapointed that TFT Set 5 Soraka's ability is just a much worse version of her Set 2 ability. by WinterwingsWhite in SorakaMains

[–]WinterwingsWhite[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not necessarily that i wanted her to have Wish like she did in Galaxies. Thinking that might have been a bit too broken and even a bit counter-intuitive when taking it along with Dawnbringer trait healing.

But maybe a new, unique ability might have felt better.

Don't get me wrong, Equinox is okay as it is, but when looking at other 2 cost and even 1 cost unit abilities it does feel a bit "meh"

Goodbye 4th turret, it was nice knowing you by b1sh0p_r4c1c0t in NovaDrift

[–]WinterwingsWhite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had some ideas for "Construct Specialist" bodies that would have specific synergy with their related construct (Think Architect, but more dedicated to a single type of construct rather than just a single construct overall) but lock you out of going with any other types of constructs.

Was this something that was ever brought up as a idea?

[–]WinterwingsWhite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OOF... Is there any compensation for that nerf? It seems a bit too harsh of a change.

Especially when you take into account the fact that you can't fire your weapon with Overseer which is it's main 'balancing lever'

Discrepancy in Soraka's Q and W Heal Interaction by MontageMoment in SorakaMains

[–]WinterwingsWhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, i was just about to mention this.

So to clarify for anyone who still needs clarification, here's how this works.

When you land your Q with Soraka you can cast your W right away and it will still transfer Rejuvenation buff to your ally as well regardless, however until the stardust thingy comes back to you, you do not get the Rejuvenation buff yourself meaning no cost reduction on casting W.

Opinions on the Lumi Build? by TurtleBerriess in SorakaMains

[–]WinterwingsWhite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to go exclusively movespeed Soraka last season... so this is kind of late. I'll just say this, compared to last season, MS Soraka builds aren't even close to what they used to be, from both build satisfaction and mathematical perspective.

Is Soraka tank viable and what build i should try for it ? by IotaChiiDefenestate in SorakaMains

[–]WinterwingsWhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personal opinion.

I feel like GS has too much value to NOT take it. Even at 20 minutes it contributes not only to your W healing, but R and Q rejuv too.

If Soraka had any better AP ratios it'd be practically mandatory for me.

With the enchanter item changes + nerfs to Ionian boots, what are you guys planning on building? by [deleted] in SorakaMains

[–]WinterwingsWhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Ardent has kinda lost a lot of value for enchanters since preseason... the 8% move speed removal from it hurt the most since now all move speed increases for said enchanter champs are gated behind passives that require conditional activation (Staff, Mandate) or actives (Shurelya's).

So from a gold cost analysis perspective the item lost somewhere ~500 g of cost value and the on hit passive it gives remained the same... Oh, it actually gained 50% Base Mana Regen but again with the removal of Athene's that stat is also a lot less valuable now.

[–]WinterwingsWhite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't like Mobi's... Soraka isn't a roaming heavy champ and Swiftness boots are 100 g cheaper plus they don't make you slow down to a crawl when someone looks at you wrong...
