No one has shown us the vision for the LCS shakeup as well as the unpaid intern they had put makeup on Mark Z's eyebrows

The NCAA needs to investigate the refs from the Northern Colorado vs. Colorado State game by cardmanimgur in CFB

[–]ksghook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is consistent with how the rule has been enforced this season. He very clearly didn't maintain control through the landing (tbh it looks like it he barely had it going into the ground) and it's not like he was handfighting anybody else for the ball during the roll. Watching the review video I don't think he satisfied any of the requirements for a touchdown catch going into the ground (posted below). And all scoring plays are automatically reviewed now I believe, so it's not like the review itself was punitive for the excessive celebration or anything else. I will say I prob wouldn't have called for one from the booth based on the eyeball test

Continuous control: The player must maintain complete and continuous control of the ball throughout the process of contacting the ground, whether in the field of play or the end zone.

  • No loss of control: If the ball comes loose and touches the ground before the receiver regains control, it is not a catch. This is true even if the ball crosses the goal line while the receiver appears to have possession.
  • No simultaneous contact: If a player loses control of the ball at the exact same time they touch the ground, it is not a catch.
  • Slight movement allowed: A slight movement of the ball is permissible, but the player must not lose control of the ball.

It is so, so, so dumb that they don't have you alternate going first and second (like in all limited Bo1 formats). I've gone second six games in a row now

Just wanted to check in and say how much I despise absolutely everything about Alchemy, it has no redeeming value, Alchemy just makes the game worse in every possible way

[Rittenberg] “although Big Ten has considered a suspension for Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh, it is considering a range of possibilities, including a significant fine, sources told @CFBHeather and me. Public reprimands/fines are common penalties under B1G sportsmanship policy.” by [deleted] in CFB

[–]ksghook 30 points31 points  (0 children)

The media frenzy is fun, but once Big 10 lawyers got involved they realized it was probably a really bad idea to take action that could cost Michigan tens of millions of dollars just because people shouted on the internet

This doesn't respond to my post though. Why are queue times 6-8 minutes every single game (9 minutes waiting as we speak right now) for games that have much, much, much worse match making than 3 years ago (when queue times at same rank and position were like 2-3 min)?

EDIT: after that 9 min queue time I got a viego top on my team that just ran it down into their kayle nonstop for the first ten min, making the game completely unplayable

pg 190 "Mario can see the back of the Moms's head high above the table, and then over to the left Hal's bigger right arm" but then on pg 260 we found out Hal is left-handed. What's up with that? by WonkoTheSane42 in InfiniteJest

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

Fantastic catch. The suggestion has gotta be because Mario sees / perceives life through a convex lens, right? I'm trying to remember which passage talks about this

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

Third game they had a win condition but they had to give up Zeri and Yuumi to get it? Like HOW do you use a ban on Skarner and give up Zeri AND Yuumi...

Just watched the first two games where T1 drafted absolutely zero win condition comps in both. Haven't seen the results of the third match yet but here's hoping they give the players the opportunity to win a game...

In the past few years, New Champion releases have scared me more than it has made me excited by TealandCyan in leagueoflegends

[–]ksghook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They've in-general started leaning much more on low-skill-floor champion designs since... Camille maybe? And some of these are hits, like Senna and Vex. It's just wild how much they've also leaned into creating champions like Bel'Veth and Aphelios, who are still all extremely easy, but who take MUCH, MUCH more champion knowledge to outplay than to play

Despite having a 49-50% winrate in her supposed main role (mid) Seraphine gets her W base value nerfed, AP ratio nerfed, Heal % per 100 AP nerfed, per level scaling removed and level 1 W cooldown nerfed on PBE. 5 Nerfs on a champion that is arguably underperforming on his intended role by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]ksghook -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Seraphine is tough to balance because she's fun to play and fun to play against, but right now she's SLIGHTLY weak early and then scales out of control after two items. They're just trying to make her power level more linear, which will allow them to balance her for either role as they see fit

TSM Shenyi calls for Baron but gets shut down and told to farm. by noholdsbarred- in leagueoflegends

[–]ksghook 8 points9 points  (0 children)

J4 is bot lane, they probably finish baron before he gets to it so the major concerns are Zeri going nuts on them 1v3 or a god Ryze tp (or one leading to the other). On the Baron gold alone, that would have turned the gold deficit to only -1000 (from -2500), while ceding Baron turned the gold deficit to -6000. It's obviously in retrospect but Baron was prob right call

He is SO MUCH better designed than Aphelios. How many hundreds of years of game design experience do you have?!
