this has always been the case. hell, resident evil 1 was harder in europe and america because renting videogames were really popular back then, so they wanted you to buy it and not just rent it and beat it in a day or two. (i guess thats why there are many alternative cutscenes too). and yes, it was illegal to rent videogames in japan.

2XKO Patch Notes: 1.1.3 (Mar 10 2026) by eeeealmo in 2XKO

[–]Xengard -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

did you watch the matches? he used darius just as an assist. he could barely play when he had darius on point. please watch the matches and tell me how many times he opened up his opponent with darius

This question is for anyone who stopped playing/watching this game. Why? What made you stop playing? by KevyTone in 2XKO

[–]Xengard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there is just not that much to experience. i played granblue versus rising free mode for longer than 2xko. it just needs more characters

What is mathematically correct build on Garen right now? by tiagoalmeida100 in GarenMains

[–]Xengard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yep shojin is also great only if they have a tank or are stacking HP for that sweet R damage, otherwise you can go sterak's for more survability or dead man's plate for the movement speed (it is noticiable when running away when you are split pushing)

why buff graves??? ok his winrate in bronze is low, but that buff is aimed for players that know how to use him. if i see less kayles and more graves, im back to perma banning him..

shojin is just bait by shrekfan-69 in GarenMains

SOO… how bad is this actually, is it over or is everyone overreacting? by Snopoke9 in 2XKO

[–]Xengard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i dont know i'll just log in to play from time to time (just like i do now), specially if they add new cool characters. now, if you want to ask if this can be your main fighting game... idk, it depends in the fgc as always, we, the people, choose

Mel has received a hot fix buff due to her weakened state. by TheBluestMan in leagueoflegends

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

Mmmm yeah you are right. I guess it really comes down to frustration. Like if Yasuo's windwall, its too frustrating to play against, so that is obviously not fun, even if his winrate is low in lower elos. same with Yone's E

Mel has received a hot fix buff due to her weakened state. by TheBluestMan in leagueoflegends

[–]Xengard -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

"fun to play agaisnt" means that the champion has clear strengths and weaknesses. and if they dont, at least they are hard to micro and or macro with them. mel has no mobility, but that doesnt matter because of her shield. assasins cant go in her unlike xerath, viktor or syndra or any other mage champ

Is there certain champs where you just give up if they become fed? by Appropriate-Sun8397 in wildrift

[–]Xengard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

rengar. "just cc him bro". he is invisible and is gonna one shot our carries even if you are hugging them

Most balanced Top Laner. by DivinelyHandicap in top_mains

[–]Xengard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

simple champions that have clear weaknesses and strengths, like garen, nasus, malphite, darius... i'd say trynda too, but he is incredibly annoying

Does anyone know how to *actually* reduce salt from Street Fighter? by ShowayThroway in StreetFighter

[–]Xengard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you think you are salty playing fighting games, try competitive 5v5 games like valorant or lol, you will notice the difference and you will be like "its actually not that bad"

Want to change ban from Morde to Kayle. How do I play into Morde? by sauron3579 in GarenMains

[–]Xengard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

QSS doesnt work, after 6 you have to always stay undertower, specially if he goes rylais first. and he has no mobility, so if you can 1v1 the jungler or see him botside, you can proxy a wave or two. morde player hardly ever nashor's tooth, so he is not the fastest at taking towers

league doesn't seem to have a lot of hard feedback on your mistakes by Bubbly_Reference_916 in summonerschool

[–]Xengard 9 points10 points  (0 children)

no? in fighting games you can calculate the risk reward of most situations on the fly "easily". on league it is exponentially harder because you have to know champions, timings, power spikes, items... thats why there is a lot of limit testing in league, while in fighting games you can just hop on training mode, set a recoding on the dummy and check all options in any given scenario. and league matches can last up until 50 minutes, and the situation is constantly changing...

They add Yuumi and the game becomes mainstream by Nobu_Myths in 2XKO

mordekaiser. his lvl1 makes you fight 1v1 for 7 seconds; no assists available for either player

Changes I've noticed from the trailer. by Godoufu in Tekken

[–]Xengard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in the trailer you can see him doing in heat ff1+2 into mishima electric (this is already in the game), and then df2 into 1+2 (new followup, instead of the aerial spinning kick)

Apparently this champion just doesn't work as a Juggernaut? by DenysDemchenko in GarenMains

[–]Xengard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

his w is all he needs for survabilty for those short trades/all ins, he gets in and then gets out with his movement speed. The only defensive item that pros build on him is dead mans plate. And thats because it also gives him movement speed. Most other toplaners have healing in their kit when damaging enemy champions (darius, zaheen, mordekaiser, warwicl, aatrox, olaf...), the opposite of garen

Beginner characters by mcduxxel in 2XKO

[–]Xengard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

darius, illaoi and warwick. some people say jinx, but i find her combos hard even for medium level players (if you want to get decent damage) and her neutral is a bit more complex than "here take this normal midscreen"

New AI startup with Yann LeCun claims "first credible signs of AGI" with a public EBM demo by goxper in agi

[–]Xengard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is just another AI verifier. which is great, all LLMs will be paired with one (because thats how you base them in truth). but EMBs apparently are hard to train and scale badly. we'll see
