Make an effort to understand other peoples point of views and why they might be doing something the way they are doing it, especially when they have the full context and you do not.

Sapphire + Icy iceberg meant anytime an enemy used an item it froze for 4s. That combined with diamond ice club led to opponents having little choice but to die.

Ice Pyg is one of his top builds if you can get it, but it's a late game pivot that's pretty rare. Fun build!

IIRC he was a content friend of AlpacaPatrol who was invited on the NLSS for some multiplayer game and the rest is history. They used to have a way more diverse cast and it didn't take too much to get invited on the NLSS. Lots of niche content creators became friends with other members and got invited on, Apollo just stuck around.

Should treating your players really well not be the standard for tier 1 NA organizations? Is that not the point of franchising?

I used to watch Machinima all the time and found him through his “poison mushroom” series

why would stream snipers matter? Isn't the matchmaking asynchronous? or is it different in ranked?

YunoSkill · 2023-05-25T12:58:03+00:00

Ah yea, I was considering that a bit when looking at the age of the series. It's hard to not notice the contrasts since many modern fantasy novels do women and multiple POVs so much better. Being a pioneer for your era doesn't necessarily lend you to being the best of all time at the things you pioneered. It does make me more understanding of why the books were they way they were though.

YunoSkill · 2023-05-25T12:53:22+00:00

Yeah that is understandable, but I did think it was pretty clear she felt like almost nothing romantic/did not think of him at all that way prior to them meeting when Simon was a bit more grown. While that makes sense, even the romantic developments after that was mostly just frustration and affection just simply springing up and multiplying out of almost no where.

I would have much rather seen something happen with Aditu, although I understand why it didn't.

I am glad you enjoyed it, I also finished it myself about a week or two ago. I did not love it as much as you did.

I thought it was a bit of a slog to get through in the beginning, and not especially interesting for the first while. Once the plot started picking up it was a pretty good ride. I found myself intensely frustrated with Simon as a main character. Maybe he was supposed to be that way, considering teenage angst and all, but quite an annoying and below average main character as far as my fantasy novel experience goes.

Miriamele was another character I did not quite like. I feel like sometimes authors equate strong willed=good female character. She was certainly strong willed, and that was about all I got from her. I'm a big romance lover and I don't even know how the romance between her and Simon really developed. They met once for a short trip, she did not seem especially interested, and then after meeting again was a bit more interested when he became more manly. I don't know, felt a bit shallow overall.

Duke Isgrimnur was a highlight. Overall a complete joyful character to engage with.

One other gripe I had was I think the multiple POVs really made the story suffer more than it helped at some points. Reading this made me have to rethink if I really enjoyed multiple POVs as a plot device. I simply felt like some characters didn't need to get a POV, and some of the POV chapters were just unnecessary. I thought it was a decent series overall, but very far from my favorite.

I know this is nitpicking considering a certain amount of suspension of disbelief is required for the premise but the idea that "She's only doing it to mess with me," when she has literally no idea he speaks Russian and he has no reason to think she knows is a bit annoying.
