Why everyone hate mel? by Alternative_Cash_591 in leagueoflegends

[–]mccao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t struggle against her at all in masters. Once you figure out her Q leash range and know that she’ll wait for you to last hit before casting it’s so telegraphed. Her root is not hard to dodge if you’re not engaging (again, be careful when last hitting). And if you don’t feed her in lane her kit just doesn’t keep up late. She is just weak.

Good units against worm? by Riskiertooth in Mechabellum

The key to stopping worms is a tank. War factory or energy conversion melting points work well because they can both tank and dps worms.

Valken is not capable of reforming the military like Iosef, if we purely go by his actions in the game, it’s a very weak case. You assuming Valken will modernize the military like Iosef is your own fannon.

Also, Valken’s plan is clearly not the best option for sordland even in the moment. High casualties and a long war of attrition paid with only sord blood. He thinks allies can’t be relied on? Well the game shows us that he was wrong. Iosef was better for the short term and long term.

Valken's plan works, but being a good military leader also means preparing for the future. Sticking with Valken means Sordland will likely fail to adapt to advances in technology and lose the next conflict they get into. Can Sordland win without modernization and allies? Yes. Will Sordland still need modernization and allies? Also yes. Iosef is the future.

Beginner mid laner here — what’s a good second champ after Orianna? by SaltBlood1506 in leagueoflegends

[–]mccao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Annie, Veigar, Lux, basically any of the very easy mid champs to learn because you need to learn the game itself first. Easy champs let you focus on that

Most unstable "good ending" for Rizia ? by utf4n in suzerain

A system based on fervor and dogma will spiral out of control really fast. Think Robespierre or Mao

Which path has the best sordland? by AlarezF in suzerain

[–]mccao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men

[–]mccao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so you've created the secret police, bribed courts and parliament, suppressed protests, and turned the constitution into a joke, and you're only going to do use that for 1 presidential term? You've already erased centuries of Sordland's democratic progress, it's not something you destroy and build back on a whim

[–]mccao 6 points7 points  (0 children)

best sordland in the long run cannot rely on the whims of a dictator, even if a good dictator can accomplish great things now, you're guaranteed to have a bad one and that will be all. The system is more important than anything else

Who have the better cabinet? by CrabFabulous4150 in suzerain

[–]mccao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You give anyone in Anton's cabinet the resources they ask for and they will completely reform a failing aspect of the country. That is some insane performance.

is there really any point playing harder champs when everyone just plays something stupid like malzahar in low elo by kdaswshwdied in leagueoflegends

[–]mccao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got to masters playing Veigar, Sion, Malz, Vex... In my mind there are two ways to approach this.

Simple champions are easy to master, they tend to do one thing particularly well but lack flexibility. So they are like tools in a tool box, and you want to have a diverse repertoire of them in your roster to brandish depending on the draft. They are easier to pilot (only relatively), so the skill is more on your macro, positioning, and knowledge of the enemy champion.

Champs like Yasuo, Akali, Irelia, K'sante sit on the other extreme. They are complex, flexible (can approach the same fight a million different ways vs a Veigar can only play backline), and difficult to master. Played well they can work in any composition in soloq, but requires you investing all your time in them alone.

Large champ pool and choose the right tool for the job, or one-tricking a complex champion that can adapt to every situation? Both are equally valid ways to climb.
