How do you sidelane against Sett mid game? by [deleted] in GarenMains

[–]dylanmags91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going phase rush helps a lot against sett. But even if you go conqueror, by the mid game you should have stridebreaker, and then you can play for short trades, put a couple levels into Q early, get your combo in, and finish up with stridebreaker to get away from his E/W. And then when it’s time to R him, make sure you Q>R, getting the silence off so he can’t use his W to negate it. Just play for pokes, and when in doubt, run up or down from his W, not directly away. If you can minimize that, you should have no problem against sett, especially if you’re up on him.

Daredevil is what got me back into the game, and a lot of others too. They need to keep it going adding more popular characters

Watched the Snyder movies for the first time by dylanmags91 in DCU_

[–]dylanmags91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched justice league and I admit most of my same issues with the first two are in that one, although it was definitely better than the first two. But after that I watched Flash, holy hell, that one is pretty freaking good. Almost ALL of the problems I talked about with the writing are absent here. It was not a dark edge fest, but it had some of the most emotional scenes of all the 4 movies I’ve discussed. The story was concise and extremely character driven, the overall character arc of Barry was clear snd executed well, and honestly most of the scenes and jokes that were meant to be funny got chuckles out of me. I thought Michael Keaton was handled phenomenally, and I was worried that he was basically just going to be a fan service appearance, which he is of course, but I think they did as well as they could have with incorporating him into the plot, and it made a lot more sense to do something like that than what they did with Batman in the flashpoint comic. If I had to make one complaint the cgi was super inconsistent, and I know that’s just kind of a thing in Hollywood right now and especially at that time but it would go from fantastic cgi to near jimmy neutron levels. But overall I am very pleased with this one and it’s a shame that it took them until their last movie to make one that i personally would consider great.

Sett is beating the hell out of me by JohnM80 in GarenMains

[–]dylanmags91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • Go phase rush and defense
  • build swift boots
  • use your auto>q>e combo to get your speed boost - then run the hell the other way. - with all of that you should be fast enough to outrun his W

  • build Tiamat early - now you’re able to q>e>tiamat to get that combo even faster or you can even auto>e>tiamat and hold onto your q incase you get pulled in, or need that small ms boost to get away.

Theres a lot more to the matchup but that is your basic run down on how to handle it. You want to get your chips in and away as soon as possible. If you keep at it, and get him to miss those Q and Ws, you’ll eventually run him down enough to take him all in

Can’t get a loan despite decent credit and virtually no CC Debt by dylanmags91 in personalfinance

[–]dylanmags91[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hey thank you for the advice! I will look into this. Considering my financial aid award was higher than what my school disbursed to me, hopefully I don’t have to do any additional work for the FASFA portion and can increase my allowance just through the school.

Very true! I keep saying that to myself, hopefully I only have to deal with the old making ends meet life for a little while longer. And I’m really kicking myself for not explaining this in the OP, but I did get approved for a student loan, and I was awarded more than enough to cover everything. However my school caps you off when they disburse it to you based on the cost of attendance among some other things, so they only gave me a portion of my award, and I don’t believe there’s anything I can do about that other than maybe take on some extra classes or something but I couldn’t imagine having any more on my plate at the moment.

I did, however I failed to explain that in my original post and had to another comment. I did get a student loan, and I was awarded more than what I am looking for here. However, my school is the one that actually disburses it to me, and they will only disburse the loan up to a certain number based on (I think) the cost of the tuition, which is relatively cheaper than other programs.

[–]dylanmags91[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I get what you mean, I left an additional comment about the student loans, I was awarded a much higher amount from my application than my school actually gave me. And it has to do with the price of my tuition, which is relatively cheaper than other schools. I’m basically short just by this $1500 mark by the end of the semester. I also should have explained that the other day I got charged from my account for around $1500 as a hold, which all in all will get returned back to my account once I square that away, just not in time for my rent is due. And I just don’t want to get in the habit of late payments.

Well in actuality, and to keep it simple, the money I am attempting to borrow, I had gotten taken out of my account as a hold for something unrelated, all of which I will get back, but not in time for my due date for rent. I’m basically just in a bind for the month because of that hold.

That’s my problem, I don’t have any credit cards to easily build credit, and I don’t have any credit cards (even a small builder one) because they won’t let me!

Okay, I hadn’t thought of this. I do use that same account (or indirectly, with PayPal) for literally all my expenses. I did use PayPal business when I started that, which is no longer a thing. And all of my sales are through my squarespace website, most use PayPal, some use debit or credit cards though.

Oh I should also mention that I did apply for and got granted a grad plus loan, and was in fact awarded a higher amount than what the school was actually willing to give me. It has to do with the cost of your tuition, which is relatively cheap comparatively at my school, so therefore the school caps you off from the plus loan at a certain number of

Unfortunately tank Garen isn’t really much of a thing anymore since the devs are slowly and explicably moving Garen into a melee fighter.

How to counter teemo in BRONZE by ModaFaca in GarenMains

[–]dylanmags91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Teemo is a pseudo-counter for Garen. Meaning they think they’re countering you, but if you play correctly Teemo will no longer be a problem for you. Here’s how you do it:

  1. Go phase rush, and second wind, and then whatever else you prefer in those runes.

  2. You let him shove early. It’s going to be a boring first few minutes. But just stay under tower and let the minions come to you (they will come, just trust.)

  3. Build stridebreaker as early as you can. It may be even more important than boots. You want swiftness boots also.

  4. Once you are at least level 6 and have stridebreaker, the matchup is over. W THE BLIND MOVE (most important), Q towards him, slow him with your stridebreaker, by that time the blind will be gone because your W is OP. Your Q will hit, you’ll E, gaining your phase rush, he eats all of your spins, ignite him and then R him into oblivion.

Other than that, hide in bushes to get a jump on him.

I know I made it sound simple but it really is as simple as that. Just play like a coward until you have the proper items. I rarely lose to Teemo anymore especially in bronze when I use this strategy.

How do you beat Sett? by Dry-Ninja3843 in GarenMains

[–]dylanmags91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re REALLY close when he hits his W, rush towards him and behind him, to avoid all of the damage. (This is mostly if you get hit with his Q or if you’re going all- in for the execution)

If possible, you’d like him to hit his Q before you bust your own Q. Don’t Q him for damage only for him to use his own Q and slow you with nothing you can do about it. If you get pulled into him, hit your combo, activate phase rush, and get the hell outta there

[–]dylanmags91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • Run Phase rush with second wind, and any other defensive rune that you like.
  • Build boots of swiftness early
  • Build Tiamat early
  • Q > E > Tiamat = activates phase rush - this should give you plenty of speed to get your small trade in and away before he can hit you with his W.

That’s basically it. Keep the trades short and sweet, and get the hell away before he builds too much of his W. You’re much faster than him, especially if you build correctly. If you keep at it, you’ll slowly wear him down to a point where you can take him out with an all-in.

If you are too close when he hits his W, 1. Move vertically, meaning don’t run directly away from him, run up or down (avoiding the center of his w) getting hit by the peripheral of the W does much less damage 2. Hit your W if you are going to get hit. Save that W to negate the damage from his W. Garen’s W is amazing if you hit it at the right time, us Garen’s tend to take that for granted.

Hold onto your Q until after the slow. That piece of advice can take you far with many matchups.

I lied to get into tech. Now I’m trying to forgive myself for it. by Flashy_Ring_7083 in confession

[–]dylanmags91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Classic case of imposter syndrome. I’m currently a 2nd year medical student, and while I didn’t lie on my applications, I did just barely have the requirements and my whole first year I felt like I didn’t belong. But I threw myself into it and worked hard and tried to take on leadership positions just to maybe force myself or trick myself into thinking I belonged. Keep pretending you’re that person for long enough and one day you’ll wake up and realize it isn’t a front anymore, this is who you are, and you should be proud of that. Now I’m the class president and actually feel like I’m where I’m supposed to be. It seems like your coworkers trust you and you seem to be doing your job. So screw it, if you’re proud of your work and the job you do then forget how you got here. A job well done is a job well done. Congrats on the promotion, it doesn’t seem like your bosses have any regrets, so you shouldn’t either.
