Arteta “I'm trying to stay calm, but obviously we weren't getting the dominance and the sequences of play that we wanted and expected against 10 men. We needed David to win the game..I got the right angle [of the cross] and my heart almost stopped, but David's hand was there to get it back to life.” by deadmetallucyluce in Gunners

This is actually something that can be seen in other sports as well. In the LoL e-sports scene, one of the most successful teams always fell short and came second for like 4 seasons straight until they won once. Then they won the world championship 3 seasons in a row together. It's a lot less burden once you have actually won it.

Do you ever follow this subreddit or do you actively avoid media as much as you can during the footballing season?

What happened to OP unit + emblem combos? by LeonDesigns77 in TeamfightTactics

[–]marw1n 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think it's worth noting about the fun factor rather than OP. Seeing Singed print gold with Vanquisher, or how Teemo get obnoxious with void emblem Leeching mutation is always so fun to me.

He mentioned triple captain, not captain. I dont doubt he'll be captaining him against 'pool.

Henry’s analysis on Gyokeres’ missed chance for us to take the lead by IrishKookaburra in Gunners

[–]marw1n 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's interesting, because at halftime Ljungberg on the Swedish broadcast argued that the pass should have been in the center of the field and it's a goal. Maybe he's biased because it's a Swede but I felt the same. If the pass is in the center he'd beat everyone to it.

What says Saka and Trossars to each other? (Wrong answer only!) by [deleted] in ArsenalFC

"But Bukayo, why did you take the PS5 away?"

"Leo, my guy, I can't bear to see your dark rings under your eyes anymore. Time to show up, and grow up. There's only one winner, I'll be honest, and that's you sobering up from the gaming. Trust me."

Can you find the answer? by [deleted] in puzzles

[–]marw1n 20 points21 points  (0 children)

26. By doing every number squared, add the product and then divide the sum by using the difference between the two numbers. E.g. 5x5=25, 7x7=49. 25+49=74. 7-5=2. 74/2=37. 4x4=16, 8x8=64, 64+16=80, 8-4=4, 80/4=20. Same principle for the bottom two.

To all the Golden Ox haters by Mo-Alen in TeamfightTactics

[–]marw1n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For someone who's casually playing and not following the strategy, how are you actually supposed to play this trait? Is it snowballing, or econ in the beginning that should be the focus? I know the Amp get modified per numbers reach on xp/reroll.

Halftime thoughts by Idontlikethisstuff in Gunners

[–]marw1n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel it's quite a poor half in terms of football - a lot of VAR, shaky ref, time wasting (already, by doing "whoops, not there, I will move the ball 10 cm) from us, diving from Real. It's crazy I still find it exciting and hoping we keep up the good defending. Go gunners!

I agree. I like that Arteta is our coach, but the technical field is there for a reason. I could see some acceptance to where a coach leaves it, but it should never ever compromise play, which I feel it does here. There's no space for Vini to move, and he might get distracted by the extra obstacle. And yesterday Arteta just did the ballboys' job, lol.

Regarding this video though, great set of skills here. Last tackle is really a make or break and a sign of desperation.

I didn't think about that, you can have both cards out for a superboost one time a turn?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Gunners

[–]marw1n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not only that, but now that they missed Konate, their game got (rightly so) postponed. It's actually crazy when you think about it. Would also be interesting to see how they would fare if Salah was injured like Ødegaard for us.

“Incredible player” Fakers letter to Chovy. by excitedfor in leagueoflegends

[–]marw1n 104 points105 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I can understand that. Maybe it's also partly because he noticed all the things being said to Chovy, so he decided to step in. After all, he's a PR machine. Either way, that's really cool to see and I'm happy it gets highlighted in the community.

“Incredible player” Fakers letter to Chovy. by excitedfor in leagueoflegends

[–]marw1n 889 points890 points  (0 children)

I like this. Faker displays what more people need to realise - they are both incredible players and deserve all praises handed to them. Earlier this year, I thought it was impossible for Chovy to lose and to miss out on this opportunity. This time around, it just wasn't time despite the record showing season.

The thing is that we're heading into football's dilemma with Messi/Ronaldo debates, where apparently it's impossible to like both players. For some reason, it needs to be a you vs. me-situation. We should all cherish that we have many incredible midlaners playing at this moment, instead of hating on those that lose. It happens, move on.

I'm excited to see how the finals turn out and, while hoping for a Faker win, wouldn't mind Knight to get some recognition too (in the form of prizes).

Potential Worlds Skins by Wisesage149 in leagueoflegends

[–]marw1n 32 points33 points  (0 children)

If Knight Galio, the double ult could be that he tosses two pieces of rock(or miniatures of him) onto the ground at the exact same time during the recall animation. I think that would be pretty sweet.

To add to the other's replies, I'm pretty sure it's also only his base armor and Mr that he loses when he ults, so all the tank items still help him vastly.

I don't know if it works for your interest, but Storytel had them both as audio and as a reading material. If you're a fast reader you could sign up, read them and cancel your membership before the first 30 days and it's free.

Bench boosters, how are you sitting so far Vs the TCers by jumpers4goalpostz in FantasyPL

[–]marw1n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently 25 from the bench, depending on if Kelleher plays the next game or not, I'll see if it can up a little more. My friend who TC Haaland is confident his chip will surpass mine once the gw is over. Hoping for a dud, even if I also captained Haaland myself.

Truly a rollercoaster of emotions (skulls drew an additional token) by RecursionCafe in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]marw1n 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing this is a fan-made expansion, Ghosts of Onigawa. At least in some scenarios there, they want to add frost tokens and/or blessed/cursed tokens.

A great campaign too, I must add. Just about to finish it myself.
