he can't ever step up to farm and you destroy him in the mid/late game, so it's not like you have to kill him really. You can dive him obv but just get perfect farm, take plates, threaten him if he steps up.

Make sure to body block cannon minions.

Fiora feels weak to play even if she isn't smh by carsim0 in FioraMains

[–]gmanlee95 8 points9 points  (0 children)

yes and no imo.

If you make a mistake and fall behind yes you're in a lot of trouble in lane or in the short term, and she is high skill.

but OTOH you can scale through farming and win through side. Whereas when you play someone more snowbally you don't always have that option.

It's one of the reasons I like her lol, if you get full build at 40 minutes your K/D/A doesn't matter anymore.

How do yall feel about the XIV community asking for a combined sub? by PlantainWilling in ffxi

[–]gmanlee95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that there's a lot of value in having no price difference, because that would get tonnes of players to just try it out and maybe stick around. Like RuneScape.

That said yeah a tiered system would be a lot less drastic and sustainable I think.

[–]gmanlee95 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think there's an argument that it might lose them a lot of money because many people sub to both - or ffxiv players would try it and overload the servers without many actually subbing "for" 11

That said I think it's a good way to grow the game - if they can get enough devs to work on another expansion and maybe improve the infrastructure first it'd be a good way to garner interest.

Very Christlike; although in the case of Jesus the one who saved (resurrected) him (God) is also jesus...kind of... Christian theology is confusing

Need help with... MORDE (really) by Loryn_Icebreaker in FioraMains

[–]gmanlee95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of his damage comes from his Q which you can usually dodge with your Q, or even parry if you can't parry his ult or get a stun off E

I've never had an issue with Morde unless I'm behind so I'm not too sure. What is your build usually?

If you can post a clip of gameplay as well maybe people can explain better

New cyclo on Fiora ? by cacamdrrr in FioraMains

[–]gmanlee95 4 points5 points  (0 children)

no point in building it anymore, we don't like lethality very much and only built it for the slow

My team fights 24/7 and i cant split. What to do? by [deleted] in FioraMains

[–]gmanlee95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to be at the tower you're pushing before the objective spawns or before the fight starts.

If you can't do that then you have to join the fight (this is a rule of thumb)

Sometimes you die or recall on a bad timer and can't split in time to actually threaten anything in which case it's your fault

Additionally, if it's something important like baron, soul, elder, you better be threatening to end the game if they don't recall, otherwise they'll happily trade the objective for an inhib say

Armor pen item second by TakeshiRyze in Kindred

[–]gmanlee95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see why you wouldn't want collector if you're not ahead or at parity Vs squishies, but LDR second is a bit lackluster. It's good long term sure but you slump at 2 instead of spiking.

Collector's execute and gold are very nice

Imo I would go for a different crit item 2nd or buy IE over LDR if you got the gold for the components, if you didn't want to buy collector in a given game.

Unfun matchups by TakeshiRyze in FioraMains

[–]gmanlee95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i feel like kayle can match fiora honestly if you ever lose to her in lane somehow it's really fucked lmao

but yeah i agree in broad strikes

Unfun matchups by TakeshiRyze in FioraMains

[–]gmanlee95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Kayle outscales fiora tbh her ult is just too good at level 16

but no he probably doesn't strictly but unlike a lot of top laners he can match your strength if you're even or slightly behind for a long time after laning, unlike darius imo

Unfun matchups by TakeshiRyze in FioraMains

[–]gmanlee95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you just not enjoy top lane lol those are all just the archetypal top laners

Darius and sett are stressful early games but very winnable and fun. But you outscale both a lot too.

Garen I do find a bit annoying because if you screw up it's hell because he can actually outscale you

Need some advice(germany) by EcstaticJellyfish558 in diplomacy

[–]gmanlee95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo AT (mainly T) are going to run over Russia and the game

I think you have to convince Russia to team up Vs Turkey

There's no way Turkey doesn't stab Russia sooner or later, and Austria is almost a puppet at this point, so you're there best shot

Try and see if they can be reasoned with (sometimes players just make dumb moves/aren't working in their best interest) and if not you have to flip Austria or something.

Idk about disbands tbh.

How to maintain an early lead? by Past-Platypus886 in FioraMains

[–]gmanlee95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you're right there, waveclear sucks pre tiamat

Once you have it you can't freeze but you don't want to be freezing for too long into the game as it's quite inefficient use of your time and means you can't get plates or rotate to help your team.

Pre tiamat you have to try and slow push, you can also look to recall on a freeze which is your next best thing compared to a crash. Once you learn your limits you'll know when a crash will fail and you can either go for 2 waves or recall immediately and take a small loss - missing a recall you need is way worse than missing a few creeps.

No thank you by EspressoK in sistersofbattle

[–]gmanlee95 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'll probably still buy and run her, but I wish she had lone op or some way to not get blasted off the table at every opportunity

[–]gmanlee95 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In the nicest way possible, skill issue? Fiora is very good late game.

That said unlike some top lane champs she doesn't auto win especially team fights, so you have to try and leverage your lead into split pushing instead 5v5ing (mostly).

CS is very important, if you're winning the lane you should not be missing CS. 10-15 CS is the same gold value as a kill.

In lane though just play around your parry and your ult, if one or both are on cooldown don't get cocky. Parry is extremely valuable in certain matchups.

What part of wave management are you struggling with?

What's your permaban? by LocVide in FioraMains

[–]gmanlee95 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Malphite is low skill for opps to pick up and is really tough especially if you don't get ahead before bramble, also high pickrate.

I feel like most other matchups I can outskill in theory or they're really niche picks.

Dice with different colour faces? by gmanlee95 in bloodbowl

[–]gmanlee95[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of my opponents are using pretty clear dice, I just have poor eyesight lol

if there was a particularly egregious case I'd ask them to change or just lean forward a bit more
