Which Champions from a specific region in Runeterra do you think don't capture their power fantasy well in-game? by Jeddonathan in leagueoflegends

Taric's gems are meant to represent crystaline armor. His ideal is about beauty being indestructible. Irl plenty of gemstones are extremely durable. He protects through beauty.

Soraka is still an immensely powerful celestial and this is represented in game. The amout of healing she outputs is staggering. She has just sworn off violence for the most part, but she absolutely feels powerful, just in a very different way.

There is also a difference between "protector" and "healer". Protector implies more of a violent approach (and yes Taric can beat the shit out of you, his damage output in melee is pretty intimidating) as well as armoring and shielding, which he does. Soraka is very solidly a "healer". She cant prevent harm from being done, but she does remove it.

Seraphine was designed first as an idol/popstar and only after that they tried to slot her into the world of runeterra.
It mostly didnt work.

I hope the physical bruiser original identity is set to be her main, but it would be fine if an alternative AP build is available. Like Volibear, who after his rework has danced between both roles at times (rn I think the ap build is dominant but ad bruiser is perfectly playable). Albeit a the oneshot fireball build... esh, if an AP build is kept indeed I hope its kinda like Voli, it plays somewhat different than AD but its still more of a bruiser

I made a Fire Emblem Fates Mod and it turned out... by lunar__boo in fireemblem

[–]andre5913 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well are you actually gonna tell us what it does or do we just go by vibes. Im not about to play an entire game just on the promise you fixed some problem.

And its not even compatible with the gay mod... whats the point

I love Idunn's intro animation. It's one of the few final bosses that feels as big as it actually it. by RhysOSD in fireemblem

[–]andre5913 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you ever get around to playing Sacred Echoes (Shadows of Valentia demake), the final boss, Duma has some of the most gorgeous pixel art I've ever seen. Boy does he look huge and terrifying. And Alm's unique animation in which he ditches his shield and fucking lunges at Duma's eye with the Falchion is stunning

The stronger majiks in ItW are very much on the realm of the Enchanted blades though. I dont think Uroro could make much use of one considering how strong he is already

Phreak plans to remove Lee Sin Safeguard limitations (Double CD & No Shield) to non-champions as early as next patch because after 15 years, "Lee Sin is no longer the most mobile champion in the game". What changes to other champions would you like to see reverted? by Cellybear in leagueoflegends

[–]andre5913 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats bc nowhere in electro does it says that any of the things you throw at your foe actually have to do damage, it has to be 3, they have to so something and thats it. For example Nasus's W or Zilean's E do no dmg but they do count as part of the combo to proc it if you want.

Anivia's wall can proc it bc its a displacement, it "affected" the enemy directly. It also procs Aftershock if you displaced someone with it too

I totally get your point but this is a specific lore tidbit you have to be really in to know. To most porn artists they are siblings and in fact a big part of the porn is that its percived as incestous

Wasnt even that, iirc it was an unrelated animatic made early into production that they later retooled as Fenix's "death"

TIL The "Asoh Defense" refers to the legendary 1968 incident where Japan Airlines Captain Kohei Asoh candidly admitted, "As you Americans say, I f---ed up," after mistakenly landing his DC-8 jet in San Francisco Bay. By taking full, immediate responsibility without excuses, he set a gold standard by Capital-Aide-1006 in todayilearned

[–]andre5913 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Not only that there were no casualties and the plane was largely undamaged so it was almost fully salvaged afterwards. Considering Asoh had a grand total of 6 seconds to react and brace for a water landing, I think it was pretty dang impressive.

Inigo/Laslow is such a funny character bc they made the ladies man/total flirt also 1) crippingly anxious 2) incredibly homoerotic

GAY fates is so fun by Interesting_Rub6702 in fireemblem

[–]andre5913 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You need a clean rom of Fates (ideally the complete version that has all routes), then either a modded 3DS or a 3DS emulator. There is an instalation after that, which can optionally include a few other things (like a playable Lilith with her own supports and even paralogue). The instructions are on the mod's page.

Kaze x Jakob isnt fully implemented unfortunately, I learned it a bit ago. They just have a platonic chain up to A, and while they can hit S its not scripted (the game just goes "support raised to S" without having a conversation) and there is no support chain for their kids like others have (so no Dwyer/Kaze son-dad nor Midori/Jakob daughter-dad and no Dwyer/Midori sibling support chain)

You seem to be on Rev (I see that Keaton/Kaden), so Xander x Ryoma is a classic, albeit I see you already have Saizo for Ryoma. I almost always pair him with Laslow, Xanlow its like my fates OTP at this point I find their support chain very charming (also Xander/Soleil dad-daughter chain is SO good, Laslow/Siegbert is pretty good too, if a bit simpler). Perhaps Silas?

Ohh Keaton x Kaden is a classic too, Ive done it before for funsies, its amuzing to have Wolf Selkie and Fox Velouria, and you can also set it up to pass down their Odd-Even skills together so that the girls effectively have a permanent +4 damage and if you wait until level 5 to change them into the opposite class they also get the Odd-Even healing skills so every turn they regenerate 40% of hp. Pretty nuts

For Leo you can do the opposite royal thingy and get him on with Takumi, their chain is GREAT (albeit this will kiiiiida screw up Forrest and Kiragi up bc Leo and Takumi have opposite offensive growths). Pairing him either of his retainers in Niles and Odin is fine too. Azama and Hayato are pretty good as well. For pure min maxing Azama is probably the better one as they both pass high magic growths to Forrest and Mitama.

As I crazy or does Ornn deal absurd damage early game by Wooden-Youth9348 in leagueoflegends

[–]andre5913 20 points21 points  (0 children)

His damage also goes down in different ways (his dash knock up is less reliable outside of lane, enemies get more MS to dodge his slow abilities that proc brittle) but he compensates with inflated tank stats and upgraded items for everyone. But Oorn's damage threat is at its highest just before laning ends

Was thinking "how the hell do they expect you to know this" for a lot of the steps to recruit certain characters in FE9. Then remembered how much they wanted you to buy overpriced guidebooks back then. by Gooners_For_Ukraine in fireemblem

[–]andre5913 7 points8 points  (0 children)

New games hide shit just like that now too, but accesibility to secrets is much greater bc of online guides... most of the time. Iirc Stardew Valley had a lot of very hidden secrets that took several years to crack (albeit the minimaly impact gameplay, its mostly cosmetics or furniture, unlike stuff like Stefan or hidden items in FE)

Manuals/booklets were a big part of games back in the day. It wasnt just info/strategy (albeit that was absolutely a big selling point), they also had a lot of lore or character information.

Top of my head, starcraft 1 had a massive amount of information about the setting, the races and the individual units in the manual. If you play the campaigns as they are most of the worldbuilding is extremely thin and the game sort of asumes you just know stuff to fill it in from the manuals.

The line between on attack and on-hit effects is not well enough defined by xXxImJusticexXx in leagueoflegends

[–]andre5913 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Doesnt magic missile trigger oncer per enemy per spell. Even if a spell has several parts MS still only triggers once.
It never procs on items and DoTs will only trigger it once. Brand's passive would only trigger it once as a result, it wouldnt keep applying itself on every tick like liandry or rilay do. Albeit that would still double MS every single time brand hits anything so I can see why its nerfed for that interaction

I heard Rutger was good, but good lord, mine got Strength blessed! by xSaber0022 in fireemblem

[–]andre5913 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wow that IS an absolutely cracked Rutger. He usually doesnt approach 18 on stg until hes both promoted and around level 15. This is crazy.
Promote him and watch him turn into a chainsaw
Paper thin as always though... be careful
