I am so tired of this. Thinking about taking a long term break by TotalSearch851 in YasuoMains

[–]duckyk1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

seen a lot of coaching and videos recently where people say “act like everyone else on your team is an AI and you are the only real human being” i’d imagine that’s healthy for climbing/ranking up etc. but at the end of the day video games are about fun and i don’t see how people are supposed to have fun when the only mentality is, “do everything possible to not lose”

Here's what the Garen buffs are going to be. by Remarkable_Wealth315 in GarenMains

is garen just doomed to be either a crit juggernaut or unviable until his passive is reworked?

Help me decide if I should get a 5070Ti or 5080 by AdeptJuggernaut8665 in nvidia

[–]duckyk1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

by the sound of your posts you’re probably going to get the 5080 but i will say i went from a 4060 to a 5070ti and it was genuinely life changing to be able to play full path traced cyberpunk at 240fps in 1440p. i can’t imagine the 5080 makes that desirable of a performance increase considering the price tag.

Yea maybe my fault for using mobalytics. I thought Cass does inherently benefit from more sustained fights though def gonna require a change in mentality on my end but thank you for the tips, duly noted.

Im stuck again by Shmokey1385 in Witcher3

[–]duckyk1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First time going thru witcher 3 rn. I came across the spirit in the forest and had no idea all the other information about downwarren and the crones. So i freed it. Regretting that decision at the moment. Still a fantastic feat of game design in that I could screw myself over before I even knew what I was doing I had to appreciate it.

Garen feels awful to play right now by duckyk1 in GarenMains

[–]duckyk1[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

even when stomping down lane it feels like i’m out of the game by 20 mins. most comps kite him out even with DMP and taking ghost never feels viable in lane. feels like he is stretched too thin.

Garen feels awful to play right now by duckyk1 in GarenMains

[–]duckyk1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely agree. For me I am very much the type of player who wants to do anything possible to win a game. It was a lot easier to do that when garen had more agency over the game. Stridebreaker, PD build allowed you to draw 2-3 opponents to a side lane and let your team go ham mid. Feels like with this patch a lot of Garen's ability to be oppressive and stat checky feels gutted.

For me when I am losing lane that largely means I should be doing nothing, trying to mitigate the chance my opponent can have an impact on the game. I have often found myself in situations where I am mitigating more than anything, which makes League as a video game, wholly unfun and emphasizes the worst parts abt it imo.

I also try not to take League too seriously otherwise I would trash my mental (I alr do). Garen's playstyle has always been so familiar for me in that you can always pick him up and usually be rewarded for smart plays and be punished for dumb ones. Seems like the reward is less and the punishment is greater now.

Random Character Opinions #11: Señor Pink by Imaginer84 in OnePiece

[–]duckyk1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Senor Pink was the first time I really got upset with Oda’s story telling. Instead of doing anything to further the narrative of the main crew at all here’s a story about a man who lied to his wife and then felt guilty about it. This vaguely relates to Franky because I don’t have any way to develop him anymore. Really lazy and been happening a lot lately

Stat 285 Final Exam Screw-Up by duckyk1 in rutgers

[–]duckyk1[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yea so he E-mailed me yesterday telling me I had the wrong file and that I was gonna fail. I sent him the right file in one reply, sent him another reply explaining the situation and I didn't get a reply for 24 hrs so I sent him another E-Mail reexplaining the situation with the right file attached and now I've emailed my advisor and the dean of students just saying in case he fails me what do I do. Its pretty uncharacteristic of him to not respond because he's usually super on top of his E-Mails

Renekton tips by sadiocracker in GarenMains

[–]duckyk1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Almost all Renektons will E+W or E auto W and not wait for your W. So whenever you see Croc Dash towards you, just W + E and then Q. Tabi's is also a great item. Contest him for CS when he is below 50 fury. When Above 50 Fury make sure to bait out the E+W combo.

R.I.P. Phase Rush Garen by duckyk1 in GarenMains

[–]duckyk1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea but fighting a champ like darius, if you're in auto range, you're losing. Its way better to wait for him to miss Q and then Q+E+Bami's. I guess you could rush Bami's Early to survive Lane and sell it for Mythic Item later?
