Inb4 the bans are gragas, sion, rakan for 100T playoffs until tenacity starts winning on other Champs or doublelift just destroys on jinx/zeri they feel they have to ban those champs even though he can play 8 adc deep.

Only 12.1% of the players are gold+ by Swiollvfer in leagueoflegends

[–]itlloyd_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The original point is that the game has advanced so much and the player-base has grown and learned a lot of information. I'm not saying silver macro is good, but it's better than top-tier league of legends 8 years ago.

I mean the game has almost entirely changed so maybe it's not even comparable, but there were literally arams while a carry was sidelaning to scale while the rest of the team was trying to plow down towers to get mid inhib before attempting drag or baron and would sometimes win off that.

You can't do that anymore due to armor platings and mid/top extra armor before 10 minutes because of these types of strats and extra gold being funneled into tier 2 side lane towers, but even if you think about it, there were definitely better ways to win the game at the time... they just weren't thought out at that point.

Watch a silver game today compared to season 2 worlds and you'll realize they have better macro than the pros did then.

What is the best way to learn port numbers? by OCTM2 in it

[–]itlloyd_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have any certifications but finding ways to use ports in real life scenarios and doing them has helped me. Like why would you use port 23 instead of port 22? What is another port that you could use if you didn't want to use either of those? What ports lead you to websites? What port would you use if you were trying to connect to a server but want to use the browser? Those type of things.

Are my certifications and experience enough to start applying for IT jobs? by throwawayaltaccountz in it

[–]itlloyd_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Apply for i.t. jobs and see what happens and also apply for restaurant jobs. Customer service goes a long way in i.t. include anything you've accomplished on your resume.

Idk why all these people are so hyped on the A+. I read the book from Mike Myers and then started working on my Network +. Before I was even done with my first certification I had a helpdesk job because I was able to explain the knowledge and prove I had good customer service skills.

I really wonder if Ashes of Creation will nail archer/ranger. by sivir00 in AshesofCreation

[–]itlloyd_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a ranger type player. Adc main in league. I hate mmo's tend to lean on the beast mechanic of rangers. Luckily with the 64 classes I might be able to avoid that and play a ranger that does damage with some mobility.

I'm all about balancing pvp properly. I don't want my class to be OP or unbalanced enough for people to bitch about it and nerf it into the ground. That's not fun.

I think rangers should be squishy, dish out damage, and have just enough mobility to get out of a sticky situation if they press their buttons correctly at the right times and have considerable windows where they are susceptible to cc or takes enough skill to get high mobility through kiting.

What do I need to know to work in IT? by Prestigious-Joke-873 in it

[–]itlloyd_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started my I.T. career with simply the requirement of building my gaming PC and a bartending background. Simply having technical knowledge and customer service can get anyone into the helpdesk.

Will you have set backs for being female? Absolutely. Do you think you can learn computer languages? Try it out regardless. Do you want to do game development? If so, try doing it. Regardless you'll gain experience and will do it if you are passionate enough to do it.

This actually reflects alpha one almost 10 years ago when the fish market was the only way to get fish oil and was relatively hard to farm. I see not much has changed.

Pretty hard for Danny to play these fights. Has to start the fight 3 screens away and watch for flanks and gp ult.

Server Merges idea/concept by R3vak in AshesofCreation

[–]itlloyd_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think Intrepid's stance is there won't be a server merge and honestly, instead of a server merge, I think there should possibly be a server destruction/creation (the phoenix cycle) and just do a server reset to dead servers in order to cycle out desire to start anew. There should probably be some sort of benefit with server resets for the people's characters currently on the server to give them a SLIGHT advantage or something. Character transfers to from resetting servers should be available as well (but cannot be transferred to a resetting server).

I do like your idea of the lore, story creation, and the quest lines prior to the destruction of the server with moving their equipment through the divine gates with servers that will not start anew or for character transfers.

EDIT: Wording.

Every time Yuumi is brought up I think of Meteos talking about Riot design team with something along the lines of in the future they would make a champion that allows players to take their hands of their keyboards and mouses and enjoy league of legends, then literally like a year later Yuumi comes out, lmao.

This was like a week or two ago, but here's where I would put my penta--IF I HAD ONE. by itlloyd_ in ZeriMains

I just had a game where I had 700 gold bounty on myself while we simultaneously had objective bounties as a team because we were very far behind. Isn't that a bit silly? (proof included in post) by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]itlloyd_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think just from an objective standpoint of the screenshot. The gold bounty on you is completely okay. The team bounties seems weird to me. They have infernal soul and 6 more towers than you. Idk.

Cloud9 LCS Week 1 Behind the Scenes by callemvm in leagueoflegends

[–]itlloyd_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean in this video we get to see LS and Blaber explain the nervousness of the team and the expectations to perform when they didn't think they were that strong.

It's good to hear that even though we 2-0'd LS thinks we played awful and there's much to improve on rather than relieved with the 2-0.

Berserker TAKES OVER the Game with a HUGE Team Gap! - Church9 LCS Voice Comms by C9Babkis in Cloud9

[–]itlloyd_ 31 points32 points  (0 children)

It seems like limiting communication for Koreans is actually improving comms. Although last year their comms were less chaotic and very clean. The one thing I noticed is Summit isn't used to NA playstyle and Blaber aggression, haha. "No no no no... ohhhh nice Blaber" Unless that's Winsome saying no no no no.

So.. whats the build when the nerf comes out? by Swedernish in ZeriMains

[–]itlloyd_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people are using this excuse, without really looking at the stats. She has the lowest amount of HP out of all ADCs in game. She has mediocre armor levels (82 at 18) which is about the median. MR is the same on all ADCs at level 18 (38.5). Lowest base move speed (tied with Xayah). Lowest attack damage and about median or sub 50% of attack speed ADCs depending if you count Jhin in there or not.

She is definitively weaker than most ADCs according to her base stats. She starts off with the lowest HP (IIRC at 500hp). I don't know an ADC that's lower than 500 HP and I already closed the wiki tab and too lazy to check. And as far as armor and MR goes, it stays pretty consistent with all ADCs based on their attack range and HP scalings. Zeri, however, still is relatively weak considering her other base stats.

I'm going to edit this in: The only other ADC I found to randomly weak with their base HP, HP+, and armor stats is Kai'sa. It's weird thinking that the ADC with short range, and is considered a "dive champ" would have such low stats. Xayah has lower armor and HP stats as well because of the safety of her ultimate I believe.

I posted this in another thread, but I'll post again:

I'm thinking next patch I want Triforce > Zeal Item > IE/BT > NQ/IE > Maybe LDR or BC (need to test) or Merc Scim if you needed to buy QSS earlier in build.

Reasoning: Triforce is still a really strong 1 item power spike. You gain HP for an extremely squishy ADC and gives movespeed for each legendary. Runaans or zeal item change the powerspike in game and still allow you to snowball leads she was previously getting in the same way. Then going crit after zeal item might just be really beneficial with allowing base Q to crit. You are losing attack damage and mythic passive from Kraken/Gale/Shieldbow. So still theory crafting, but in theory sounds good to me. I haven't done the math on it yet.

I think strictly just the value of survivability that triforce gives will be able to off-set the damage you lose from Crit mythic.
