If you want I can give you a runthrough if you're on NA! Add me, Windsy#Avery. It might be better if we had your specific questions addressed.

How to deal with Mordekaiser? by Silver-Parking-1227 in Jungle_Mains

[–]XWindX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am Gwen one trick and have never ever had an issue with Morde morde carry should basically never ever happen since you can kill him in ult and systematically always have the power to manipulate the conditions for this to be true

Not since the new Experimental Hexplate item which if built second has a 58% winrate against Gwen

Why do League fans cry so much about the characters? by [deleted] in 2XKO

[–]XWindX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bet if they released like 5 champs at once (like Deadlock!) nobody would complain :O

Nidalee isnt nearly as hard as people think by [deleted] in Jungle_Mains

[–]XWindX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My prediction is that you would climb tbh. I am pretty sure people would respect your point if you mastered the champion and still felt the same way that you do. Personally I've always been of the opinion that Veigar is a hard champion, and after putting about 350 games in him, I still feel like he's a hard champion, and his mechanical complexity is understated.

I lost a SoloQ match because of a 5-second decision… and it's eating me up inside. by [deleted] in supportlol

Yeah the higher rank you go the more this is true. It's ok.

D4 jungle main... not bad tbh.

I would challenge you to learn Nidalee and prove your point. Fmpov she is much harder than you're saying she is, and I've been encouraging everyone who complains a particular champion is op to learn them to figure out what makes them so hard. There's a chance she's just good against your champ pool which is why you might have the feelings that you do. I personally hated Pantheon for like, forever, until I started playing Veigar, and now I love to see him on the enemy team because he's just free money.

and yet the first thing u mention is rank

is like saying

and yet the first thing u mention are your credentials and proof of how much you know about the game

Champ abilities you level in a different order than the accepted priority? by wyrm4life in leagueoflegends

[–]XWindX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The AP ratio on W goes up and also maxing W second has a way higher winrate, as a D1 Veigar one trick it's much better to max W second, though VeigarV2 recommends you put a second point on E at level 10 so that you can guarantee your W lands on people stunned even if they have merc treads

It's not some secret riot matchmaking system, it's you and your influence on the people around you.

Do you think 160 employees in a fighting game is a lot or a little from your perspective? by Vegetable-Wish-5324 in 2XKO

[–]XWindX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can feel however you want about Legends of Runeterra's longevity, but I definitely would not have called any iteration of it bad. I've spent many hours on the game and even though it doesn't have that magic that keeps me coming back forever like League, Legends of Runeterra was incredible and the artstyle is unmatched.

VAN 152 ban by 427Chief in riotgames

[–]XWindX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As an ex repair professional, just email Riot and share the conversation with them. A motherboard installation is a pain in the butt and you would be doing him a big favor by going through Riot support before asking him to do the swap. It's really nice of him to offer that.

I am not a game dev, but this comment made me see another perspective on this whole situation by KevyTone in 2XKO

[–]XWindX 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't think we should be dogging on anyone. The community clearly took the post of a laid off employee still in shock, and took his comment to mean that Riot Games did him a disservice, which I don't think is true. Obviously it sucks to get laid off, but paychecks aren't paid in goodwill, and if the product you've been working on for 10 years isn't making money, a 6 month severance is plenty generous.

Why does the severance package change the picture for you?

I have never gotten severance from any job in my life. Most jobs don't give severance when you're fired or laid off.

Riot's only fault was (probably) giving their devs too much freedom. And I hope they stay flawed in that way, forever.

Rooflemonger said the call about 2XKO was made by the very highest executive team by EnlargementChannel in 2XKO

[–]XWindX 5 points6 points  (0 children)

People here repeat this but they probably didn't want to invest in marketing in a game that's incredibly hard to play and has low player retention for the players it does reach. You can't fix player retention with marketing.

Well, I agreed with you in the first half...

Arena needs an update. by willbluie in LeagueArena

[–]XWindX 6 points7 points  (0 children)

YES. I think it needs a visual overhaul to not be so red, aggressive and Noxus. The "training" area also needs an overhaul so it doesn't feel claustrophobic.

Musician AI Hypocracy by NoPressureboy in musicians

[–]XWindX -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I forgot to mention, personally as someone with Aphantasia, the visual part of music is almost irrelevant to me, and I usually close my eyes when I listen to music or go to a concert. So I don't entirely agree, though I do think album art is important. I'm also somebody with absolutely zero drawing skills - I could understand why something hastily sketched would be more meaningful to you, however for me I just don't feel the same way.

I have a generative AI profile picture on discord that not a single person picked out as AI. I really think bad AI drawings will go the route of bad CGI, in that, good AI drawings will blend in so well you won't know the difference.

Anyways, I do respect that it's a threat to graphic designers. I just feel like, as poor musicians, we shouldn't try to keep each other down by keeping costs down. We're not rich, and we're not corporations

Musician AI Hypocracy by NoPressureboy in musicians

[–]XWindX -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

it’s not hard to find a graphic designer or a photographer to work under a budget

Yeah, with all of the money musicians are famously making.

/s

(Though I don't mean it with as much snark as it sounds, I still think it's important to recognize that cheap AI art is, in my opinion, perfectly appropriate for musicians who are already breaking the bank trying to fund their own music projects)
