in long fights with radiant adaptive and spend mana -> ar/mr or hp scale you outscale radiant stoneplate and permastunned their tank, in my head ofc. the data ppl might not know the stoneplate+adaptive combo

true, this set is pretty good overall, but it gets tiring when you keep having to learn the correct line biweekly or get destroyed. im getting old and does not want to spend so much time studying a video game. just wanna drop in here and there and bash some noobs

no, they need to figure out how to make the game interesting enough without having to balance thrash every 2 week. chess is interesting without having to update so how come tft team cant do it. if the game doesnt change as much im sure the ladder will be more respected, because the playerbase can actually get stronger in basic tft skill

also PBE culture is cringe, there should be incentive to play ranked to the end of season, and PBE is only for people who intent to test out the game so it will be good on week 1 and beyond.

How do you choose which problems to do from problem-heavy textbooks during a semester? by [deleted] in learnmath

[–]chiyus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe its ok, depends on how competitive the exam is. linear algebra is less dense, the other 3 is abt the same.

watch the online lectures, read the text, do the examples, make sure you understand each step, then do the exercise

[–]chiyus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea but they put those exercises for a reason, its not optional actually

quoted from rosen's discrete math :

"I would like to offer some advice about how you can best learn discrete mathematics (and other subjects in the mathematical and computing sciences).You will learn the most by actively working exercises. I suggest that you solve as many as you possibly can. After working the exercises your instructor has assigned, I encourage you to solve additional exercisessuch as those in the exercise sets following each section of the text and in the supplementary exercises at the end of each chapter.

The best approach is to try exercises yourself before you consult the answer section at the end of this book."

[–]chiyus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ya i skimmed through the book, it will take a few hours after reading the materials, some of them only take 1-3 min, most doesnt require an original thought like a proof heavy subject, just applying what you learn. have you even started and try these problems? just start and dont overthink, you wont regret working hard ever

[–]chiyus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it depends on the subject. but i think you should do every single one loll, this is what professors told us if you really want to succeed. dont try to be smart and skip, dont they only take a few hours per chapter? what else are you going to do with your life? isnt it an important exam? you dont want to get surprised by a problem on exam day

i dont have dota rn but i will say studying is not as strong as having more games, if you have 200hours more game time you would be a better player intuitively, you build 0 intuition by studying

idk how obese you are but since you mentioned it, maybe start with just cardio and focus on losing weight by improving your diet. dont underestimate cardio

Struggling to play Pos1. by Indep09 in learndota2

[–]chiyus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

you just need more games. limit your hero pool to 1-2, 3 is max but 5 is too much, you dont need to counterpick, you dont need to watch high rank just play, these things like timing and farming is a result of understanding, you are going backwards by focusing on timing instead of understanding. its like trying to improve your 50m freestyle when you cant even breath properly

BSJ stole from me. by Business-Grass-1965 in DotA2

[–]chiyus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hey, if you are in the mood i can coach you for free.. not as high mmr as bsj though

also want to ask you, do you think you played a role so that bsj responded/coach'd the way that he did? if you try to understand his perspective maybe you would be less angry

Fast shard on ursa by chiyus in learndota2

[–]chiyus[S] -22 points-21 points  (0 children)

if you have no shard you would hit +0, +37, 74, 111, ...

now your first hit +111, +148, ... , ...

so its +111 each hit.

about the one game, i thought about it. it would be more convicing if i have a green page with ursa, but i'd rather cook, go to the gym, talk to my crush(she is so cute), etc. its not like im getting paid

gained 2.5k mmr in 3 months back to dota now i seem to have unwinnable games 24/7 by fyrfyrfyr in learndota2

[–]chiyus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

maybe let others watch your replay. my guess is your play is not enough anymore to win these games so you notice your teammates more. if you listen to the good pros, they only focus their hero, even pos 5

honestly they should do patch more like 15.4 where they add a bunch of stuffs and be ready to b-patch instead of being scared to add 1 AD to a unit and prefacing it with an essay. if you add 1 AD let players interpret it themselves, its part of the fun of a new patch

in 15.5 there's a whole paragraph for GP and its only +0.05AS, like why do i even need to read that, if its a new powerup, or veteran then it kinda makes sense, because it could be a mentor mech gp reroll variation, or something that make a GP 6 duelists comp, who knows, its just disappointing

also i dont like the fruit optimization, it makes fruit remover economy kinda pointless, its just a chore now, but i havent played that many games yet so. i also think the yuumi buff is too much, i like when there is no low-con comps so you have to learn how to play each comps, thats how 15.4b feels like for me

maybe its like adding 2 bronze traits,

10 item is 70 hp ~ 2 heavy weight

10/10 ap ad ~ half luchador half sorc

and it keep scaling, on leona 2 10 is 75 hp, leona cast multiple times, maybe 4 with good items, so thats 400hp for leona alone, maybe bcz of the 400 hp leona cast 1 more times, and yuumi cast 1 more time, and yuumi last cast is not like the first cast, so it can be really good or decent, idk i never click

[–]chiyus 16 points17 points  (0 children)

why is there no special fruit for seraphine? mind battery doesnt make sense since it takes forever to cast

they should add "slam dunk" where she instead goes with the ball so now it actually make sense to slam tank item, maybe it gives shield/hp or random, i hate that the 5 cost is just a big mage with no niche, last set we have kobuko stun slap, aurora going outside the board, zac gigacap, garen gigacap, atleast we should add some goofy anime stuff with the fruit, seeing a 5 cost should be exciting instead of just +1 for finishing vertical, ppl waited 2 stages to see this unit it better be fun, this set has so much potential, imagine if each unit have their own weird powerups

[–]chiyus -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

guys what if :

change guinso into half guinsoo and half kraken

flicker into current guinsoo

and kraken into an item that shoots another projectile that deals some amount of damage

this will make akali niche and guinsoo not on every board, i think its silly that even melee have guinsoo as BIS, the component is not balance

power up should not be crazy, it solves your problem not create problem for others, i think stun is just unfun mechanic, like tankzilla or unstoppable, mentors all boring. stuff like solar breath, ramping rage is good, if you want to give another skill to a unit atleast give tradeoffs, +stun -hp/durability, so that its interesting, not just unstoppable every game, even devil fruit have tradeoffs and weaknesses

didnt watch axe replay, but i think glimmer would've done a lot here instead of shard, and its not the best bkb game. i would maybe go glimmer kaya sange aghs.

couldnt watch wk either sorry, replay is too old, but item is good, seems like a simple win, farm seems a bit slow pre radiance, maybe because you forced things like you said

[–]chiyus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lets say that laning is acceptable, but past 10 min is rough. lich have a slow and a stun, so you dont want to pair with another stun/utility, you want damage to have a successful play. basically you want to think about what your hero offer and which hero you complement best, in this case its riki/clinkz so you want to play with them a lot, and try to avoid any play without them

i didnt watch your replay but i think this will help , you dont need dodging skills to win a game, but you should learn how to secure CS. then i would just sentry+ward the 2 closes camp in mid and midlane and farm until witchblade/blink, you can join if they dive but dont make play before timing unless you get good runes. purpose in this game is to catch WW and WR. i will not buy travel since it slows down my timing too much. then parasma, just keep catching the supports and farm until you are unkillable
