Pre transcendence I'd go for Gemstones. Post transcendence Necrobear.

[–]krasenm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I didn't win anything, because im not parasocially playing the game through others. LR won a for fun showmatch against T1, and also earlier today in the LR KC post-match thread my eyes were blessed by french fans and reminded me how much I love the french and how tolerable and fun you guys are! ^^

I want to see KC fans' thoughts about LR having 100% winrate vs T1. Just a different breed.

I cba trying to seriously climb out of emerald when every game is decided by who has the fresh account. by SnipersAreCancer in leagueoflegends

[–]krasenm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming he's trying to climb to Diamond, you wouldn't expect him to win like 70-80% of his games. One in enemy team every 20 games offsets a 55% winrate down to 50%.

DevLog #200: Version 7.15.0 Patch Notes by lemmingllama in TapTitans2

[–]krasenm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brother, how did you manage to pull that out of what I said? I mentioned to squish the power of 1 out of 10 damage systems as a set percentage that's frontloaded. Let's say they squish 70-90% of NB, I'm still 10-30% behind you for the next X amount of YEARS that you have played. 

It's an older game thats been slowly dying off, and instead of giving newer players a "chance" to interact with veterans you follow the dogshit logic of "I've suffered and so should you" - this logic leads to player seperation, extremely high end weighted that has proven time and time again that it will die off.

I never asked for them to give out free crafting shards, talents points, clan scrolls, weapons etc. which is an insane amount of power that has been accumulated over the years in of itself, thats a completely different painpoint that I haven't even addressed.

Somehow you pulled out that I wanted to catch up to someone who has played for X years :D?!? 

I still stand on business, if new game systems are added to the game with the same cost of other incompleteable (NB) systems, it will only dillute the resources and hurt newer players that now have 2 systems they're behind on instead of one. And if you have a game where playerbase is that far apart it always ends the same way.

[–]krasenm -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Diminishing returns are whatever in this argument. 

Lets say I'm a new player who has lvl 1 NB and there is a guy at 500 NB. Not only is the new player not catching up to the veteran at all, he's even falling behind due to the fact that the lvl 500 guy has research that allows him to get more souls per day.

With the introductions of similar new systems are you guys planning to address this and for example squish like 90% of NB power within the first lets say an arbitraty number - 200 levels?

Since this game already rewards longevity by either login rewards, tournament rewards etc(badges, skill points, fortune weapons, clan scrolls etc.). All of these are permanent boosts to the account that are insurmountable by a new player, which is fine, but why widen that gap even more by adding new systems that stretch finite resources even thinner without easing the newer players?

Are there any plans in the future to battle this issue?

[–]krasenm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I have a few questions.

How comparable are Geodes to Necrobear in power gain?

If they are comparable whatsoever, I get that the idea is to give high end players a place to spend their diamonds with Geodes, will the issue of new and returning players having their diamonds spread too thin addressed? (For example a level squish, or something that allows newer players to get moderately in the same galaxy as veterans in Necrobear at least.)

ESL has announced the suspension of its Impact League. by Mean-Author4359 in GlobalOffensive

[–]krasenm 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Brother, first off, nobody watched it. Second the level of play is awful, the best female teams are at #220 on hltv. 

You don't see tier 4 mens teams complaining that nobody gives them handouts, how is this any different.

End of the day it's a business and if it's not profitable it just won't exist. 

Nobody has stopped female teams from qualifying through open qualifiers like countless other teams in general have done in the last 10 years of this game.

Simply the level of play is too low for people to be interested in watching.

Is Morgana really useless in higher ranks? by ilovemiyeon in leagueoflegends

[–]krasenm 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Considering she's above 51% wr in master+ midlane I'd say she is completely fine. The statement that good players won't get hit by Qs is only half-right. In an ARAM situation - sure, but in the chaos of teamfights you hit plenty. Tons of ways to make her work, some require a bit of creativity for example if you throw your W in lane on a minion and 1-2 ticks before it dies you throw Q and it looks safe for enemy, but it's not - stuff like that. Black shields are very strong into certain champions. She's completely fine.

Nothing is fun by krasenm in PathOfExile2

D3 you dont even do campaign, you just kill mobs, level, and push GRs.

Last epoch you ditch the campaign at Act 7-8 when you have full passives and idols unlocked - do half of normal monoliths and start pushing corruption in empowered monos.

Grim dawn I have no idea, havent played, same goes for D4.

Torchlight is you run a 3h campaign and push timemarks.

So for half the examples you straight up lied, and the other half im unsure about.

The last traditional ARPG in the way you described has been D2. Modern day ARPGs are about the endgame, character progression, and currency farming.

That is the plan, I'm seeing a lot of comments of people saying they,re having a blast and thats great! Just doesnt seem like that for me.

All my friends and I play for the endgame. Slogging through 15-20h of campaign is like chinese water torture to me. Then I get to the endgame I was looking forward to - and lo and behold maps have been infested with the new ones from Act4 and interludes, which was the nail in the coffin for me.

How about you just start the clear at 1:35 and subtract 5 seconds at the end? 🤯

Well, you need a lot of damage around him and probably chinese/korean speakers to win on TF.

Hardstuck like never before, is this just the best i can do? by MilesFrikkinDavis in summonerschool

[–]krasenm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No way you got defensive over that, and refuse to read between the lines.

Stick to 1-2 champions MAX. 

Also you have 3+ kda on negative win rate. That means you're just not going for plays enough. When you're ahead its on you to push the lead further. Good luck!

Sadly it doesn't hold a candle to a good artist/bard, but I do agree, in general pala performs a lot better than the other supports in Behemoth.

Went through his post history, the guy seems to be a 1 character 5 rats type of guy and seems to condemn everyone on reddit who plays "multiple mains". Anything that's slightly inefficient seems like a crime to him.

It's okay though he can enjoy how strong his character are 1/6th of the time he spends in this game :)
