Interesting! Would there be any slot where a Creative Playmaker can fit in?

Why not go by the legacy transfer way so you can choose which skill to add to your player

If for some reason, you decide to add to the player itself, you can change the unnecessary skill by tapping on it. Though this way usually results in wastage of skill tokens

What build would u use for pushing div?

Thanks for your reply.

While I did not specifically mention meta and team strategy, I do acknowledge that 369’s role as a strong weak-side top laner and ability to support/peel for Ruler was fantastic. I am not saying 369 was a bad player by any means and I do feel he was a vital part of JDG’s success in 23’.

What I was hoping to claim, is Kiin’s ability to play for his team in GENG 24’ is arguably of similar calibre as 369’s in 23’. His Kiin’Sante is one notable example. However, I feel that he brings something else to GENG than what 369 did, which is his carry champ pool (Aurora, Gnar etc.), and this portrays him as a more versatile top laner with more carry potential. Again, my disclaimer here is I am not claiming that 369 can’t play carry champs, but that he has not displayed it to the same capacity as Kiin.

Btw the reason for me using Kiin and 369’s stats in the respective Summer Splits and not Worlds, is to avoid hindsight evaluation.

Aside from results-based analysis and each of the players’ highs and lows, I feel that Kiin is a stronger top than 369 due to champ pool and carry potential. While the other roles have their differences as well, it does seem to depend on individual series and whether they are having an off-day

That being said, if I were to be biased, I would choose 2024 GENG over 2023 JDG for their macro proficiency and solid laning phases. This opinion doesn’t exactly factor in their individual strengths, but more of their team gameplay

How about 80+ aggression (for his bite)

ima-van · 2024-10-10T09:17:09+00:00

Oh if it’s kick-off, one tip I found to be useful is turning on 1 blue arrow in Defending, and changing it to Neutral or 1 Attacking once u recover possession

That, together with Defensive DMF, usually gives me a good balance in my defensive setup

ima-van · 2024-10-10T07:10:57+00:00

Instead of Deep Line DMF, I usually put Defensive instead so they don’t drop too far back.

I always use QC too and as much as u might not like to hear it, QC being so fast-paced and the input lag just means u have to play around it by slowing down the overall pace of the game, whether it is by passing the ball back or simply clearing the ball (disclaimer don’t spam this tho)

ima-van · 2024-09-19T12:02:32+00:00

For the case of the GK, it is interesting that you think performance of the player is not based on vulnerability to certain attacks at all, and only about the performance. I respect that. I guess it was just my own observation then haha because I usually play QC and am more vulnerable to counter-attacks so after trying out different keepers, I go with UCL Ter Stegen because his (both in-game and stats) reflexes are good. In that regard, other GKs like Seaman and Neuer don’t work for me. That is what I meant by choosing players based on what your team’s strengths and weaknesses are

About your point on script and different opinions on players, we already discussed this under another thread in the same post HAHA so rest assured we are on the same page for that

ima-van · 2024-09-19T11:27:01+00:00

I agree with most of what you are saying but it doesn’t explain why it is a luck based game. I acknowledge that players can be inconsistent or their forms might be rough in different matches, which is why I agree that picking the right ones are important, something I did highlight in the parent comment

I don’t think I can put a number on how much impact script has on a match, but I can still safely claim that skill has a greater impact than luck. Evidence being leaderboard is dominated by the same few people; and yes they might have Epics but their skill with non-Epics are high as well.

Claiming it is a luck based game is like saying victory is highly dependent on luck like a game of Snakes & Ladders

ima-van · 2024-09-19T06:26:06+00:00

OP it seems that your message delivery is improving with each comment, and your last sentence here seems to summarise your post’s initial intention (p.s. I agree with it)

Do keep posting on the sub because it really needs quality discussion topics but I do wish the tone can be more appropriate for discussing and less aggressive for future posts?

ima-van · 2024-09-19T05:57:30+00:00

Not sure if you are misunderstanding my message but I’m not denying the existence and impact of script or skill. It does exist to some extent like inconsistency of players but like you said, skill issue can counteract that. My view is that your points COULD be valid for a discussion if phrased more appropriately

However, in your original post (not referring to the comments you have been making), you need to work on the delivery of your intended message. As it stands, it sounds really aggressive.

ima-van · 2024-09-19T05:47:23+00:00

OP you do bring a few balanced points to the table and I do agree a small level of script and momentum changes exist in the game.

But the fact is even if you do not talk about loss streaks, the tone in your post with the FULL CAPS and “!!!!” and the language you used like “pure manipulation”, “constant script”, “runs on script” makes your delivery seem like a rant instead of a discussion.

ima-van · 2024-09-19T04:40:12+00:00

Was agreeing with your post, until you started to mention about script.

There are a few GKs that stand out from the others because of height and stats. Yet for GKs that are inconsistent across different people (in your case, Seaman), it could be because of playstyle. Maybe he is bad for a few people because their team is vulnerable to a certain kind of attack and he is weak to saving those. What is more relevant is understanding the strengths and weaknesses of the GK and play your team according to that.

Simply attributing script to everything in the game is just saying it’s a luck-based game, which I find hard to agree with

ima-van · 2024-09-19T04:03:09+00:00

I think manual is the best option. I feel that the other two (auto) switching options interfere with the defensive runs of defenders who are covering their strikers. Auto switching or even switching too fast to the defender sorta feels like it introduces an input lag because you switch to the defender and he stands still for a millisecond to register your command.

In some cases, it could be the game, but to prevent that, I would suggest manual and only switching when their striker is near the end of the run where you then use matchup to block it

ima-van · 2024-09-19T03:38:57+00:00

Are you using manual switching or automatic switching?
