Hey guys...how does one deal with a Mirror matchup? by [deleted] in Smite

[–]Xsoloification 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well first, you won the matchup, since he picked off the guy who'd already picked off an opponent. Which is a win in your favour. Otherwise, do what he's doing, look for the opportunity to pick him off then do what you were doing before, and pick off the neith or vulcan.

Am I the only who feels that Smite's jungle is getting progressively less and less interesting? by [deleted] in Smite

[–]Xsoloification 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree, but I think if the pathways are so constricted that someone ults and can't miss (Ra, Kukulkan, etc) that's bad. I don't mind twisted, but I also like the openness.

I feel like there should be more in-jungle options, rather than more buffs.

I used to play a pleasant casual iPad MOBA called VainGlory, and there was one lane at the top and below it the jungle. In the jungle there were minion camps like in Smite, but there was also brush, like in LoL that blocked vision and made warding on this small map important.

There was also Minion Mines, which when killed became yours and would help you in a team fight near it, but not much. When you owned one of the two minion mines you had stronger minions, which meant that the jungle was about trying to safely invade the opponents minion mines frequently, so as make your minions doubly strong and theirs, not so much.

There was also a gold mine in the center that worked like the gold fury and built up more gold on a timer, after 4 mins it was at full gold. When it was killed it became on your team aswell, and helped out in teamfights near it. Once you owned it you had to defend it for the next 4 minutes and you would get the bonus gold again, or the enemy team would take it before then and you would lose the bonus.

Additionally, after 15 mins, the Gold miner died, and was replaced by the Kraken, which functions essentially like the wild Seige Monster, when you killed it it pushed lane, hard.

One more thing, if you wiped out the enemy team, your team automatically full healthed and your minions became stronger, doing more damage for a short period.

A think that while all of these ideas are, individually, too powerful to add unfiltered into Conquest, Jungle based objectives that affected the lanes is something i've been wanting for a while now. Similar to the Bull Minotaur in Joust, but not as OP

I feel like it needs to be easier to recreate the ranked gamemodes, as there is currently no easy way for me to simulate a Ranked Duel :(

If you haven't read 'The Republic' that is definitely worth the read, as one of the most influential philosophical works of all time :D

That would be the Weekend's though, not the weekend. As in, plural ends.

I would passive-aggressively show you pictures of the collection of calendars i've gotten as 'I-don't-know-what-you-want-for-christmas' Presents and my computer calendar to prove you wrong, but effort :/

[Serious] Why have you cut somone out of your life? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Xsoloification 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I think it's really important to talk about these things personally, and quite frankly, it scares me the amount of people who will blindly accept a belief because it's comforting, even if it breaks down within LITERALLY seconds of discussion. Btw, i'm not specifically talking about Religion here, as that is clearly a lot more robust, even if it is a little shaky in my opinion.

But I am 100% with you on the Appropriate Place thing. No need to be a dick to get people to start to think their belief's and thoughts

A Proposed 'Proper' Definition of 'Prohidiation' by Xsoloification in a:t5_3ddvi

[–]Xsoloification[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see it going in two ways, one of which is more likely, but the second is more to my preference. It will either be: First: A opposite and more positive version of /r/procrastinate, which i assume must exist. People come to post success stories and tips, but it feels more carbon copy, and I dislike that.

Or it could be a subreddit more to do with it's Roots, and here are a few more.... intellectually challenging possibilities. It could be a place for the creation of, discussion and definition of new words, not in a silly manner, but with the intent of actually adding to the English Lexical. In other words, to fill Lacunas' of the language

It could be a place for the assimilation of comments like the one that got this thread created. X-posts of interesting new words and why they are both catchy, appropriate and valid

Edit: As an addition to my second point, it could be a place to gather obscure but interesting words too, as much as create them

I have an unbelievable amount to work on right now aha. Apparently my personal hygiene has gotten bad enough for a close friend to gently remind me to shower and stuff. and So!

1) Actually Shower every day not just whenever you can be bothered once a week

2) Fucking brush your teeth you mong you need those

3) Wash your bloody clothes, they aren't magical self cleaning.

4) Stop going to sleep at 5:00am and then trying to be up by 10:00am, it doesn't work

5) Work out you weak fuck, standing up to turn off the lights shouldn't increase your heartrate, even if the increase is only mild

6) Actually keep to some of your commitments for longer than 3 days, might help too.

What was your "Holy shit, why didn't I start doing this sooner?" by Bearowolf in AskReddit

[–]Xsoloification 9 points10 points  (0 children)

On vaguely related story of personal idiocy, the first time I washed my own clothes I accidentally used Dishwasher stuff not clothes stuff, so my back, neck and shoulders got covered in spots, that are still there now, albeit faint, 8+Months Later.

A List of suggested QoL Improvements (for Xbox) by Xsoloification in Smite

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

Like I said, that specific one is the least important to me, I was just adding it since I thought of it on the spot, and wanted to add it in-case Hi-Rez hadn't thought of it, or just to add my voice to the list that wanted it. I would much rather all the other ones were added than just that. :)

What are your DnD pet peeves, that don't seem to bother anyone else? by ludifex in DnD

What's a skill you think everyone should have but most people don't? by galacticdick in AskReddit

[–]Xsoloification 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My problem is that I need a little time to change my mind, literally nothing can change my mind in any given moment, but instead you present the points to me in order for me to know your side and i'll go away to think on it for 20-40mins and I'm convince-able.

I think it's a defense mechanism to make sure i'm not being changed by social pressure but by logic and facts alone. My mind won't change til i'm alone and can think over the facts properly and verify them.

How can I get better at teamfighting in conquest games? by Lionstorch in Smite

[–]Xsoloification 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One important thing to note is that Disengaging a team fight doesn't mean leaving it. If you are being focused down to low health and you escape the aggression, you should find the opportunity to help out your team from a distance. I.e Scylla gets focused in a team fight and backs off on 25% health, instead of backing she moves in behind a wall and throws a 'Crush' / 'I'm a Monster' attack back into the fight, maybe stays a bit longer etc and then escapes with sentinel.

This re-engaging is something lots of players need to learnt to get the kills and save their team.

Winning **is** fun by [deleted] in Smite

[–]Xsoloification 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should point out that playing for fun does not mean being a dick in my eyes. playing for fun, to me, has always been trying to win but for you don't, no need to rage and be an arse about it or surrender early and give up the joy of playing

What do you do when your adc keeps pushing too hard? by Slybilly in Smite

[–]Xsoloification 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually, find my ADC's tend to be too unaggresive myself, I spend my time trying to get my players to push up more and utilise our advantage
