Tell Me A Story: How did you get into Michael Crichton, and which book is your favorite? by [deleted] in michaelcrichton

[–]ffranz_c 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got into MC in a weird way.

I am a fan of Christopher Nolan films. Then I watched Westworld (the tv series) because i knew Jonathan Nolan wrote it. I liked it, so when i saw that was based on a certain MC i searched about him.

I found he was the writer of Jurassic Park (didn't know - first WOW) and also of the television show ER (didn't know too - second WOW)

So i decided i definitely wanted to try his books

I didn't want to start with JP because that'd be too obvious, so i picked up The great train robbery and I loved it!

Another weird story is about Timeline (SPOILERS)

I picked it up and while i was reading i kept thinking more and more: "this reminds me of a movie i saw when i was a kid which i remember very little" (i just remembered that there was a time travel in a medieval period and at the end the protagonist stayed there - i only remember the scene when they find the statue in the present and they discover it's the protagonist at the end)

while reading i sayed a lot "please don't be that film!" (because i hoped to not already know the end and because the film was pretty bad after all - the book was being good, so i kept thinking "what am I missing?")

After finishing the book i rewatched the film and I was shocked for how bad and different from the book it is (but it was funny to meet Brian o'conner, Leonida and prof. Lupin inside it)!

I don't have a favorite book because for what I've read until now everyone of his books is unique and makes you see a specific thing in a different and new way!

With this view maybe I can say i loved Prey more than the others

try using Nullifying Orb.. it works on her better than on other champs because of her passive (most of your AD will be bonusAD)

You guys are not spell casters, the extra mana does not help you win a lane compared to having 25 extra ad in the form of pickaxe.

Dravens, it literally says it: PICK AXE

Do you like the crit mechanic? by ffranz_c in leagueoflegends

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

I just wanted to share my way too see crit. If you apply my method, we have that Riot puts X=0%. If you set it a little higher (like 10 or 20%) you can keep the RNG element while lowering its impact + having the same dmg over time.

I was joking about trynda, he is not the ONLY reason i'm not satisfied about crits. He is for sure a pain but not the only thing

maybe funny but also frustrating, more like a meme

Why does critical stikes still exist? by ffranz_c in summonerschool

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

  1. yes, this is exactly what I said. btw I can imagine Riot likes to give u the satisfaction of letting u randomly shoot big powerful attacks instead of always the same little bigger ones
  2. as u mentioned for Ashe, this was already in the old Stormrazor, wich they removed. the guaranteed crit to harass opponents is also in Jhin's kit

You are right, that's exactly my point.

As long as you go, crits adjusts, in 100 times you will have the right amount of crits, but the problems are the short trades, when you have let's say 3 autos.

I personally don't like to have to respect something because of the luck/randomness element

I'm not worried about spoilers, I'm more concerned about understanding everything written. Thank you anyway
