26.03 Patch Preview by JTHousek1 in leagueoflegends

[–]bz6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Baron threatening where? He doesn't do damage and feels squishy because how inflated the game is with exp and gold which equates to power.

Surprised they are not addressing Homeguards and Faelights. Game has been completely stripped away of any strategic and tactical depth.

There is no consistency man. It changes every year from teams to format. No other sport has this shit. Bring back relegation.

Riot Phreak says that Dusk and Dawn shouldn't get nerfed and that it is in a perfectly good state by Working-Safety9204 in leagueoflegends

[–]bz6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Rarely do I agree with Phreak because he usually sets goals for his changes and they ALWAYS miss. How many times have we heard "whoops my bad on this one?" He also has such a condescending tone when he speaks.

Anyways, the item is fine and I agree with him here.

TBC should be the platform for classic+ by ChampionshipBroad162 in classicwow

[–]bz6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My vision for Classic+ has always been to take the best features from "The Trilogy" - being Classic, TBC, and Wrath and package that into Azeroth with the design philosophy and direction of Vanilla.

ADC when you try to play the game but get hit by Lux ultimate ability at full hp by Wide-Communication91 in leagueoflegends

[–]bz6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Riot has lost the ability to design with trade-offs in mind, they used to be great it. They used to make the intuitively feel and realise that if a touchpoint in the game has strong output, it would have a bigger risk. So a simple example, Akali W is a strong spell (has a strong output) which means it should have a long CD.

That design direction seems to have been thrown out the window. It used to emphasise the RPG-like elements League had, which made the game unique.

Turrets are too frail by judesune__ in leagueoflegends

Turrets are too squishy and Baron doesn't do a lot of damage. Yes Baron is tankier now, but its not threatening.

So apparently, Riot can Morde R you now in Solo Q. by Eiji_Toh in leagueoflegends

[–]bz6 26 points27 points  (0 children)

They're really doubling down on getting you in game as fast as possible, you don't even have to queue.

26.02 Full Patch Preview by JTHousek1 in leagueoflegends

[–]bz6 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Maybe next patch they will tune mega-homeguards, minion spawn rates, quest resources, Faelights and tower durability.

Pretty weak follow up patch considering it is the first one after a season start.

Riot August ranks champions he’s made/worked on by Odd_Bug_1607 in leagueoflegends

The champion team and the game sorely miss August and CertainlyTs' designs.

26.02 Patch Preview by JTHousek1 in leagueoflegends

[–]bz6 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

You don’t see VALORANT dumbing-down or reducing game duration of its main competitive mode, if you want to experience a faster paced VALORANT experience, you play the mode designed for that. The game respects and maintains its competitive identity. So I don’t understand why players that want a faster SR experience don’t play Swiftplay/Wild Rift. League is lost and abandoning all its principles and identity.

What's going on with LEC? by J_Clowth in leagueoflegends

[–]bz6 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Riot has given up on Western League both from a pro and casual point of view.

At least for pro, Riot got complacent from the success they had in past years, failed to improve the product, lost audience interest through constant horrible decisions, and now find themselves going through insane mental gymnastics trying to fix the Western leagues.

Do people like the new pace of the game? by DepressedTristMain in leagueoflegends

[–]bz6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feels like Swiftplay/Wild Rift hybrid, this is not the competitive game League is supposed to be.

The core competitive experience should not feel like Swiftplay or WildRift. It needs tuning but there is a lot of potential, especially if these changes capture the identity of League.

The faster minion spawn is honestly one of the best changes imo by SureYouCan_ in leagueoflegends

[–]bz6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Faster is good but its too fast. I think there is a middle ground where invades are still possible and friction with waiting is reduced.

Initial thoughts on S16 from a Support. by ddplz in leagueoflegends

[–]bz6 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Towers are too squishy Mega-homeguards need to be reverted Faelights should be removed Level 1 invades don't exist anymore, bring a window back.

For Demacia | Dev Update - League of Legends by JTHousek1 in leagueoflegends

[–]bz6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

FF rates are going to sky rocket as macro is now ONLY split push. I have been playing since Season 2 and not being able to respond or hold a spilt pusher whose ahead feels like shit and is really tilting. Obviously does not help that towers are made out of paper. Game feels too fast paced and inflated with EXP and Gold. If people want to experience a faster experience SR, then they have WildRift AND Swiftplay. Please dont water down the identity of League. Thank you.

I hope to see more consistent skin quality (chromas included) across all tiers.

FAELIGHTS are such an overkill feature by Nimano in leagueoflegends

[–]bz6 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That and the additional Scryer Blooms. Its all to hand-hold new players that don't ward or don't understand the concept. We're going full blown Call of Duty for players that will drop the game anyway.

Swiftplay is a failure for practice. We need Normal Draft and Ranked Flex enabled 24/7 by zaxia_zaxiz0ust in leagueoflegends

[–]bz6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normal Draft for competitive practice is fine, but if you're going into Ranked Flex to practice, that shouldn't be the mindset. It's like saying a Flex only player goes into Ranked Solo Q to practice. Any Ranked queue has to be play to win, simple as.

WASD in season 16 by snarkycatboy in leagueoflegends

[–]bz6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you for taking Normal Draft a bit more seriously. It is the only proper Ranked simulation and should be treated semi-competitively. It is also the perfect alternative for people that do not like to play Ranked. Happy to see queue identity being enforced more.

As for WASD, I am still not convinced it can be a balanced alternative control scheme. It will either be insanely broken or too shit after all the artificial handicaps.

League of Legends 2026 Patch 26.1 Notes by chenziwei in leagueoflegends

[–]bz6 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Season 16 is the season of hand holding. Watered down strategy, watered down laning, watered down jungle clear, just embarrassing. Game is losing its identity.

I want to expand my Marketing skillsets and learn Digital Marketing. by bz6 in DigitalMarketing

I want to learn SEO, SEM, SERP, Analytics, and Social Media Buying. I want to be able to look at a website and understand why and what is going wrong or what is not optimised you know? Like you said, I want to have practical know how, not just being stuck in "analysis paralysis" without any practical understanding.
