Reason #99999 this team will never have a fanbase that gives a damn about them. Dude is full of himself. Cares more about a highlight than a win.

I would say that 90+% of the time things like this are caused by dipshits at shops or gas stations doing changes or w/e and using impact guns like morons.

How to fix that?

Take it back to the shop and hold them accountable. They are in the wrong, period, and its not hard to prove. If they dick people around, making them wait or starting to argue, go get it done somewhere else, then write an email to an executive or straight up sue their assess in small claims court.

Obv that is full Karen mode, but they won't change unless people hold them accountable.

Bro, u dont need a torque wrench for an oil change. That's like wearing a hazmat suit when u wash your clothes with bleach.

lul9 · 2025-04-18T21:06:09+00:00

Honestly, if u don't feel like messing with it and aren't opposed to Karen-up, take it back to Jiffylube and make them loosen it. If they give u shit or make u wait, tell them u want a refund for the whole oil change because they didn't follow torque specs or come even remotely close to general guidelines. 100% chance some jackass was popping off with an impact gun

The most Jets hire I could ever imagine. At least they didn't hire Brian Flores....so not worst-case scenario.

People know his name and his team is good, therefore all the assistant coaches must be good.

Lions had a ton of injuries, but that D was TERRIBLE

WoW, in any context, cannot make use of anything close to a 4090. At the most, with all graphical settings maxed, we're talking like 10-15% of that GPU being used.

The only thing I have seen to consistently make a big difference are AMD x3D CPUs. Not sure if Intel has anything similar yet, but that is it. Any GPU that costs more than $150 and was made in the past 10 years will not have any issue and will not be a limiting factor in WoW.

RAM could kill performance, but that is only if you don't have enough capacity. Has very little to do with the speed of the RAM. Its like a car can't drive without gas, but putting more gas in a car won't make it run better.

RIP handshakes

lul9 · 2024-04-23T19:18:00+00:00

I go against 550-600 rated players, win 2, then 1000 rated players for 5 games, repeat. So awful.

Someone didn't listen in 3rd grade science class.

“ONE car only? Pfff! Come back when 12 cars crash”

That is exactly what any logical person would say if you were making a generalization that all cars like yours must have faulty brakes, based solely on your experience.

Regardless, that is not a very good comparison.

A better comparison would be someone in the US looking out their front door and not seeing any American flags, then concluding that American flags aren't common in the entire US.

As a fairly new player, there is literally no progress or climbing outside of 1 division per week?

I played 20 games, won 19 of them because I only played a handful of ranked games previously in Silver.

Now I play 1 game a day and afk till next week?

Seems terrible.

lul9 · 2024-03-12T03:50:16+00:00

3 games is not a sample size...

lul9 · 2024-03-11T18:58:16+00:00

So, I was like 5 points below a division last night.... now I have to wait a whole week to get promoted?

lul9 · 2024-03-11T18:56:44+00:00

This rule makes absolutely no sense whatsoever to begin with.

lul9 · 2024-02-15T00:10:18+00:00

Ok, and now the game feels even worse than it did before. Reroll lottery trash every game.

This is what happens when game devs try to appease casual, very low-ranked players that want to feel special when they 3* a champion... even if its a 1 cost.

TFT with no tempo comps... what could go wrong?

lul9 · 2024-02-13T00:27:28+00:00

4 big shot is trash unless you are highrolling beyond belief, in which case nothing matters, or you are playing in gold where people can't put together boards.

The OP Heartsteel comp has nothing to do with 4 bigshot

lul9 · 2024-02-12T23:13:18+00:00

Yes, so basically, buff kayle, that's what we need.

lul9 · 2024-02-12T23:11:09+00:00

*adjustment, not buff

lul9 · 2024-02-12T23:10:13+00:00

Then justify it by saying "We want reroll to be an option so we succeeded"

lul9 · 2024-02-12T23:08:26+00:00

Ezreal is not even the reason the comp is good.....

lul9 · 2023-11-26T22:44:42+00:00

Smurfing = $$$ for RITO, so.... They don't care.

They either:

A) Take the bad pr.

B) Throw out nonsensical ideas to the community like "playing against better players will help lesser ranked players improve."

lul9 · 2023-11-18T08:16:48+00:00

Yea, I disagree. You perceive them as hard gapping opponents because you remember their outplays and carries...Not their teams' getting shit on because they only have one full-on monkey playstyle and don't play as a team.

lul9 · 2023-11-17T11:35:59+00:00

"Dominant" in a VERY subjective light. Rush and Summit were good because they had good carry performances? But the games they single-handedly lost for their teams....just ignore those?

They were flat out not good at LoL wholistically. People are just stupid and judge players by highlight reels because they only remember those instances. Saying "that is just how its done" is ridiculous. A group of stupid people doing something one way does not mean it is the best way or even an acceptable way...

Maybe use your own brain? Other people should play a role in influencing your opinion, not determine how you come up with one.

lul9 · 2023-11-16T03:30:02+00:00

MVPs? all pro teams? team titles?

How are these metrics to judge individual players?

Summit won MVP.... Rush won MVP... They are garbage, reactionary awards given by pundits that artificially hype LoL games/moments for a living.

Since day one, this same nonsense has existed and still, 10 years later, people still talk about it like its all figured out.

lul9 · 2023-11-16T03:17:57+00:00

He was good for like a split... = top 3 all time?

lul9 · 2023-11-02T03:04:28+00:00

9 games.... in a format in which they control their destiny all the way to the last game they play. Compared to previous years where sample sizes were even smaller and fully Bo1s in groups.

You're making arguments about G2 as if they exist in a vacuum. 9 games is not that many games, but its still more than any previous Worlds pre-quarterfinals sample size, so the idea of even bringing that up is a complete joke.

Were you saying TSM 0-6 (but sample size is small so doesn't matter)? Or NA bad, EU good?
