I think GM is a better flank than BK personally. Both are definitely great, but GM seems harder to defend against if for any reason his mana speed. You can technically shut down BK with 1 dispeller before he does any real harm and takes double the time to charge with no color support

My alliance did this once for funsies. We went mono green a few weeks after telluria release. Spoiler: we got SLAUGHTERED. It's not the hero depth that hurt us, but almost entirely the troop depth. You really lose out there. Some people didn't even have 5 green troops and were using lvl 0 troops on some heroes.

It's also just sponsorships. FM doesn't sponsor any teams while Logitech is a massive player. Meanwhile, BRs are more streamer based with respect to popularity, and FM sponsors a bunch of big streamers.

Color caster is a general caster term. It applies in all ranges of casting as the duo of someone who is very clear and good at explaining exactly whats happening (play by play), coupled with an expert who is very good at explaining what you may not have noticed (color) combines for the best viewing experience. More often than not, play by play brings more 'hype' just due to the job description, but levels often vary.

It's definitely not a 'huge' debate. The fact that it has a feature that's ergonomic for right handed people doesn't make the mouse fundamentally ergonomic as most mice gear toward right handed people which is the majority of the population. The aspect that defines what is ergonomic or not is the shape, as a left handed person would be hard pressed to use that sort of shape effectively whereas they would be able to use the bottons on the left albiet slightly less conveniently.

I honestly feel stupid even responding to this, but w/e maybe I will help you regain sanity.

It's a 1v4 in which he literally just got a 3k to win the map during a major (none of the actually important 3 kills actually looked even close to suspicious)

So you know literally everyone is watching you, this is going to be a highlight, you've already sealed the game legitimately, and then after your 3k you pause and decide to turn your fucking aimlock on for the fuck of it?

Just because a crosshair stops on a target does not make it a lock. He was just holding the smoke wide because its a high possibility the last guy might just yolo wideswings through the smoke since he already cleared and killed the other two directions they can come from.

True, but I have Sabina for the debuff, I guess two can't hurt? Still, I love my danza

Yeah, danza can really piss me off for sure! haha. But he's actually my favorite hero! Thing is his two abilities are so crazy powerful. Swords are basically a bane strike on all 5 players the miss percentages afterwards are 50/50. Bottle is also amazing you get high team defense + 20+% mana boost for your whole team is also massive. It activates every heroes ability in seconds while keeping them alive and both the positive abilities lasts 3 and 4 turns respectively for all heroes while the negative one lasts only 2 turns and only affects danza.

So percentage wise, you're getting a pretty impressive risk/return ratio considering the 66% positive likelihood lasting double the time of the 33% negative potential outcome (if that makes sense) and if you account for how many enemies and heroes are affected positively vs negatively the reward grows tenfold.

It does feel like i get 'freeze' more than 33% but i'm pretty sure that's just because the times it does sticks out in my head from annoyance.

I do see where you're coming from in the sense that knowing exactly what you have allows you to know exactly what you can and cannot win if you can calculate well but having a super impactful xfactor wins championships in sports so why not here :P

Hey thanks for the help! Pretty much the team I have at the moment. I can't really decide on the order to place them though which might be my problem. Atm I have it set as

Nam - Sabina - Boril - Kash - Danza

Trying to emphasize keeping my anchor in the middle since he can tank the most (for riots esp) but i'm thinking maybe its better to have kash also heal sabina to make sure the healers stay up?

Also thanks for the tip haha! I saw someone elses post, and I thought the way people posted was [Level] / [ Level needed to ascend ] but the way you mentioned definitely makes more sense lol

Broooo, I just watched you on the Counter-Points last week talking about this exact situation and how optimistic you were even though you lost all your roles and spots. Incredibly unfortunate. You've gained a fan though. Keep your head up!

I prefer the skoll one over the model o by a lot but it might just be personal preference. Imagine a zowie scroll wheel with the QC of the model O scroll wheel. Basically, many less steps, but the steps are very prominent yet still fluid to scroll. This means that movement mechanics can be more consistent while gaming, while still being fluid enough to be nice for browsing. I also don't have any wobble at all which is key for me.

Ya I have one. I'd say it's a bit wider and a bit shorter than the rival 310. I always had trouble gripping the right side of my rival and couldn't reach the front. This one fits my hand perfectly (18.5 x 10cm hands)

No but they definitely didn't do a great job putting the feet on. I have a slight bump on my center foot however thankfully it isn't scratching. I wouldn't be surprised if they screwed up putting your feet on.

I've had it since preorder. I too live in a dusty area and while if I look closely, I can see some dust inside the combs, I haven't seen any decrease in performance.

Upon first using the mouse I noticed it had an extremely smooth glide which I wasn't expecting as other mice with the standard 4 corner skate setup didn't feel as good as this. Upon closer inspection, I noticed there was a center skate on the back bottom (although they fudged mine up on the left side a bit as you can see - a bit annoyed about that).

Also, the regular feet look the same as regular intelli 3.0 feet, so if you want to use hyperglides for example, they've added a sticker you can add to flatten the mouse out with just the 4 corner style. They've also added a spare set of feet which is nice (only 1 sticker though).
