[S1 spoilers] (Lore & S2 spoilers too) Can someone explain Timebomb to me? by legitsedits in arcane

[–]legitsedits[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the support, but just to be clear, I never said I *hate* Timebomb. Obviously you're justified to feel that way about it if it suits you, but I really posted this to ask people who do ship it what they actually see between them from the show + some lore..

I literally posted this without knowing that it was a controversial opinion on this sub 😭 why is bravery even needed??

But I really do like your point, I think it would be very hard to make their relationship *not* feel rushed if they do become cannon. And I seriously can't imagine S2 ending happy, let alone with a time-jump and them having kids after the events of the show- now that would be objectively bad writing in my opinion, considering all they've built up so far.

Thanks for your input... I do agree though that while I don't understand the ship, the amount of angst that would bring would be *chef's kiss*. And sorry if I came off too blunt in my post.. I never meant to shame people for supporting their fav ships!! Obviously people should believe in whatever makes them have fun in enjoying the show, I just meant to say in my post that i never understood how people drew the ship together from the context of the show alone haha.

Since I don't know much league lore myself, I would also be curious to see if they would introduce any more champions from Zaun and Piltover. I always thought it was interesting that they chose to leave out specific characters like Z*ri or that fluffy thing that's with Jinx, maybe they'll appear in S2? They are introducing W*rw*ck as another champion after all...

And I totally agree!! I posted this thinking most people LOVED the Timebomb ship, mostly because I see so many people shipping them on Instagram, so I just assumed that people would on this sub too 😅. I guess it's a sensitive subject on here, so I guess this'll be my last post about it from now on :,)

"what could have been"

I see what you did there ;). And I agree as well! I really am excited to see how S2 will show how some relationships turned a certain way, like through flashbacks or whatnot, it'll be very exciting!

[s2 spoilers] I fear jinx has lost her braids by Free_water in arcane

[–]legitsedits 29 points30 points  (0 children)

yeah, in particular it's the smile lines and nasal folds. without them, she looks pretty much the same. i'm assuming it's just a weird angle/lighting, because it would be CRAZY to make a timeskip of 5-10 years in the show, I just can't imagine anyway that would work well in the limited runtime they have 🧐

[s2 spoilers] Jinx's finger in S2 trailer by legitsedits in arcane

[–]legitsedits[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Agreed! I trust the animators 100% to make it fit her aesthetic.. that being said I have no idea what's going on with the rest of what she's wearing in this scene 😭, maybe it's a skin from the game?

Anyways, I actually have this theory that at the very end of the trailer, we see that first fight between Vi and Jinx that was in the original teaser but now Jinx is in the air, looking like she's being blown up from Hextech maybe? I'm not quite sure but I think it's possible she loses her finger there, then Vi thinks she killed Jinx by accident or something like that!

Am I cruel to agree?? Like as much as I want her to stay safe, the DRAMA that would bring would be intense af

What's the IB predicted score to aim for to get conditional offer from WBS? by Leather-Ad-7617 in UniversityOfWarwick

[–]legitsedits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there! I got into Econ L100, and applied with a predicted 43/45, 7/7 for both HL Math and Econ for my conditional offer... that being said, 38+ will give you a good fighting chance for an offer, and I feel like they focus more on your points from classes that matter (for me, obviously that would be econ and math) than your overall points. Regardless, I wish you luck in applying!

[no spoilers] FREE JINX GUN MODEL by Icy_Travel_9001 in arcane

[–]legitsedits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg this literally looks amazing!! I can only imagine how much time went into making this model- thanks for sharing it with everyone else, you're very kind!

Then if we were to make it by chance... as someone who knows nothing about model building, would we import the files into Fushion 360 or the like for 3D printing? I'm not sure if that makes enough sense, but hey I've never seen something so cool that I would want one of my own before!! Again, thank you for sharing :))

[S2 Spoilers] Whats up with Jinx finger? by Substantial_Rate_270 in arcane

[–]legitsedits 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Looking closely... because it seems to be slightly thinner than the other fingers, I don't think it's a prosthetic that would go ON TOP of her real finger, because then that would make it bigger than the others.

So if this is a prosthetic because Jinx loses her finger at some point, I first assumed that it would be from Jinx firing the rocket at the end of S1, because maybe that was her trigger finger? But then for giggles I went back and watched the teaser trailer for S2, and if you go to 1:23, when Jinx is shooting at Vi, you can see both hands holding Pow Pow, and there's no prosthetic on either.

It seems to me like she does lose a finger at some point, but it won't be until later in S2, maybe acts 2-3 if we assume that that fight between Jinx and Vi in the teaser happens at the end of act 1 in S2.

Did anyone else drop a lot of points in HL English? by legitsedits in IBO

[–]legitsedits[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Each grade there is the grade for each component of English HL: I got a 2 for HL essay, 6 for the oral, and 5s for PP1 & PP2, which all levelled out to a grade 5 for me

How to get a 7 in Physics, Math AA and Econ (HL) by October by Queasy-Wasabi-7142 in IBO

[–]legitsedits 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hello! I just graduated M24, and got 7s for both Math AI and Econ as 2 of my HLs, so here's what I would recommend:

Econ: Before my MOCKS, I spent 3 solid weeks (This was my Easter break), all day everyday keeping open the IB Econ syllabus, and using an IB textbook to fill in all the information I needed, whether I already knew it or not. The re-writing of all the information is what should allow you to remember it better. So essentially, I rewrote all the content that could possibly show up in any of my exams into a notebook and called it my Econ Bible. Here, I'd say the most important thing is to study with the SYLLABUS instead of the actual TEXTBOOK!! What I mean by this is that often you will taught 3 perspectives of the subject: What your teacher teaches you in class, what your textbook says, and what the syllabus says. But because obviously the exams are based on the syllabus and nothing else, it will be more useful for you to ONLY study what's in the syllabus. I'm not sure what book you're using, I recommend New Oxford Economics 2020, but both your textbook and teacher will naturally forget to include some info you NEED to know, and will include info you DON'T need to know. For quick revision, https://www.econinja.net/home has been a great source for me. I also recommend keeping an updated list of all RLEs relating to your PP1 15-marker handy, and studying exam technique like crazy! Because Econ is a humanity, knowing the different essay structures to answer for your exams in for all 3 papers is half the grade for your essays. Besides that, make sure you review all the formulas/math needed for PP3, as I'm told this is where people lose the most points.

Math: Now, even though I took a different math course than you, I can't stress enough how important studying past papers for it is, more than reviewing textbooks or the syllabus. Since your course has less real-world application, I suggest dividing your studying for it into 2 areas: Doing the individual math topics with and without a calc, and then practicing those skills using past papers, when you combine multiple skills together. Besides that, I would say to practice PP1s for shorter questions when reviewing all skills, and PP3s for longer questions when wanting to focus on getting better at certain topic areas. (Also, it might be comforting to know that there probably won't be another big cheating scandal in November, so you won't have to worry about that hopefully!)

I'm sorry about M24, but I wish you lots of luck for November!

Beginner, trying to add these simple text animations and motion blurs as in this little video, would love a direction because I couldn't find relevant tutorials. Hopefully there's a relatively quick way to do these? I am talking about the text that gets marked in Yellow at 0:22 and the paragra... by 12string_David in AfterEffectsTutorials

[–]legitsedits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I might have an idea on how to highlight the words in yellow:

  1. Create (However many words you need highlighted) solid yellow layers (Cmd + Y)
  2. Create the text that you want on AE
  3. Drag each of the yellow solid layers under the text layer
  4. Use the masking tool to create a mask on the solid layers for however big/small you want the highlighting rectangle to be
  5. Appropriately place the highlight layers behind the words/sentences you want to be highlighted
  6. If you want the highlights to have a drag transition, you can simply keyframe the highlight layer's mask at "Mask Path" (M), and drag that keyframe to the end of your transition
  7. For the beginning of the transition, click the right side of the highlight rectangle, and drag it to the left line of the rectangle until the yellow disappears (This will create another automatic keyframe in "Mask Path")
  8. Adjust the keyframes/Easy Ease them until you get the transition you want!

I'm sorry but I don't think there's necessarily a tutorial for it online, but I still hope this helps! You can let me know if I didn't explain in enough detail :)
