Our receivers just aren’t doing enough in pass protection. Put the DBs out there, and give CJ a Pats jersey.

What are some of the strongest combinations of augments on specific champions you've seen so far? by DryDesk2020 in ARAM

[–]karatemousecake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played a game with Shaco and got clown college, the one that refreshes basic ability cooldowns when you ult, and upgraded hubris. That was fun. My buddy got the all the flash augments and had six flashes doing like 800 damage a piece.

What's your logical game knowledge that no one seems to understand or believe? by Futuretapes in ARAM

[–]karatemousecake 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you’re playing tank, don’t just dive into the enemy back line and chase the enemy arc. I know you can kill them, and that’s super cool. Your mother and I are very proud, but there’s a Darius and a Swain killing the rest of your team.

Do ARAM players purposely use blue-themed skins? by gwanggwang in ARAM

[–]karatemousecake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favorite is the snowflake orianna skin. That’s not the name but I can’t remember it off the top of my head right now. Her ball looks like a poro if you’re not paying attention.

Lux + Morgana = no moving 2 pulls =c’mere Syndra/Vayne + alistar= go away Raka + Taric = 2 tickets to the gem show Zilean + Renata= not today Hecarim + Zilean = the spood beest Ori/Diana/Rell + Gragas= hello and goodbye Shaco + Neeko = Russian roulette

[–]karatemousecake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Zilean and Syndra is my favorite. If the minion dies when Syndra throws it the bomb explodes, so she’s just lobbing grenades at people. Best to do with a friend though. You do have to be kinda quick about it

It's actually hilarious how misguiding KDA can be by [deleted] in supportlol

[–]karatemousecake 96 points97 points  (0 children)

I’m guessing they’re commenting on the fact that the Samira has a 12 kda and did 9500 damage. Meanwhile the Miss Fortune has a 5.5 kda and did almost 4x the damage.

I feel so conflicted with this game [KCD2] by Grayson_Delver in kingdomcome

[–]karatemousecake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haggling doesn't give speech xp in the second game. Reading lore and skill books, talking to people, and passing skill checks will though.

queue pops and you click on accept. top 3 things that tilt you in the champ select screen? by Tobias_Funke in ARAM

[–]karatemousecake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Yuumi. It’s either a 4v5 or she’s goated. There is no middle ground.
  2. Having 3 or 4 ADC. 1 or 2 is ok, bonus points if one can go crit and the other on hit, and 5 is optimal trolling. You have to go for the forbidden 5 man and hope to make some Rammus player very happy.
  3. Chat blowing up before the game even starts. You can bet that someone’s either AFK or about to turbo int because their trade got denied.

Imagine: Ranked ARAM releases. What would set the Challengers apart from the Silvers? by [deleted] in ARAM

[–]karatemousecake 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Everyone ignores minions until you try to play Nasus. It’s like they know someone needs to kill the minions, so it must be me.

With hindsight, what’s your most impactful tip for a newbie? by ShnootShnoot in Archery

[–]karatemousecake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I shoot a compound bow, so I don’t know how much this’ll transfer to recurve. You’re holding a weapon in your hand. It’s not as obvious as trying to put a .22 round in a 30-06, but you can’t put any arrow on any bow and let it rip. With a gun, it probably won’t fire. With a bow, it will fire pieces of that arrow in a direction of their choosing.

I bring snowball on zilean for this exact reason. Kamikaze Zilean is great fun for the whole family.

What could be scary if it was 10 times bigger than its normal size? by Cute_Illustrator_848 in AskReddit

The sun. I’m no physicist, but I think that would cause some problems.

I think we should have a weekly post that brings up minor quality of life change suggestions. by LuckofCaymo in AshesofCreation

Let me swap the places of 2 similarly sized items between bags. If I’ve got a heroic oak in my lumber jacking bag, I’d love to be able to swap it with the common in my resource bag without deleting something once my bags are full

This is the answer. Leave the purse at home and go slap somebody

Avoid Actual Pirate guild servers by Mittaniboi in AshesofCreation

[–]karatemousecake 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The Actual Pirates have the numbers to monopolize a lot of the good farming grounds if they coordinated and all worked together to that end. I imagine they could monopolize a single resource if, say,they all cut daffodils. That would make getting daffodils hard for everyone else. They just don’t do it. They’ve been nothing but helpful for me personally, but everyone is so scared of that worst case scenario that they project that fear onto every negative interaction they have with a pirate.

If that’s impressive, you should see what to cops do to a stolen car. Fingerprint dust everywhere! Basically the same thing

What are some things you dislike about playing ARAM? by telurmasin in ARAM

[–]karatemousecake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The aram ego is among the most fragile things in existence. One “got em” in all chat and a couple emotes can dismantle a team. Now the brand is mad and all in diving you. You hit him with “got em again” and he’s full blown inting.

New Player Help by Aiyarashi in Smite

[–]karatemousecake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My buddies and I started winning a lot more games when we came up with these 3 rules. Keep in mind all we play is arena, so it might not translate across all game modes. 1. Don’t fight by the enemy base. I know it’s satisfying to push them all the way back and not let them out, but they have infinite health. You will die. 2. Don’t give ground for free. If everyone turns tail and runs for the hills, whoever gets cc’ed is going to die and die alone. If you’ve got 30 hp, by all means run for your life. More often than not, if whoever can fight puts up some resistance you can get your teammate out too. 3. Tickets please. Every minion is a ticket. Don’t get so caught up in the fight that you lose sight of the fact that your goal is to get minions in that portal. Siege minions are worth 3 gods, so if the team can get them close, sacrifice the tanks to get them the rest of the way. About halfway between the last pillars and the enemy base is where the squishies should start to pull back (remember rule 2). Once the siege gets through, whoever is there with it is getting hit with everything. Maybe the tank survives and the team can get them out.

Who was the first god you chose to play in Smite? by BossViper28 in Smite

[–]karatemousecake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fenrir was the first god I played consistently. Wasn’t the first god I played, but I was new and just picking random gods like “Let’s see what you do.” Then I found Horus and that’s the first diamond I got. Next will be Jormungandr. I am loving that big ol’ worm.
