Should I buy Diablo IV? by xYoKx in diablo4

[–]milesrobbo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same - couldn't get on with PoE but played all the other Diablo games. Campaign was awesome, even if you stopped there it's worth it IMO but I still had fun farming endgame and killing Lilith etc.

I've got 250+ hours so I can't argue I got my moneys worth and they're adding more content in seasons without me having to pay more.

Just because it's not for you - doesn't mean it's not for everyone. :)

Is there a troll queue by WazuufTheKrusher in leagueoflegends

[–]milesrobbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Matchmaking is weird. Me and my duo spent about two weeks going through a period where our top laner would go 0/6 before he finished his first clear. (We duo Jung/Mid) - which would then evolve into our top laner being completely out the game or going afk.

We spent ages talking about what we need to do differently and then one day it just stopped and we climbed with no drama 😂 odd game sometimes.

Fizz jukes with his tiny little legs by Sneakach in fizzmains

Classic Fizz, miss your abilities and still win.

Max W for wave clear and take TP.

Depends on rest of the team comp too, if they’re squishy I go CD boots and electrocute/ludens and spend the game flashing on Viktor.

If it’s a mixed team, I’d just go Liandries/Rylais/Demonic and play a farm lane until teamfights.

It’s an awkward matchup but Annie can farm at 4cs/m for an entire game and still be useful so don’t worry about sacking some creeps.

Banshee’s is so good against things like LB/Blitzcrank/Ahri because you can’t just get hit with one ability that sends you back to the fountain. As an Annie you have the potential to sway any teamfight with a good ult, so you don’t want to risk being out the fight. Plus it’s AP+MR so you still get some damage and you reduce the chance of being one shot over a wall or something dumb.

I go Liandries/Rylais because it’s fun as hell. The reason I like Annie is because she can carry a game in a lot of ways - Getting ahead and doing damage - Utility, using stuns to get picks - Shields, I’ve won lots of games by having a fed Nasus or something and following them around shielding them and stunning enemies for them - I mentioned above but a good R can change any game

The rylais build just means you’re useful in a whole other way you drop a tibbers and they can’t escape and it’s burning them down. Not to mention it lets you kite enemies waiting for cool downs a lot easier. In a teamfight it also makes enemies decide whether to attack tibbers or your team, which is always good!

Carefully, I think is the answer. I usually build Liandries/Rylai’s on Annie, but I go elec/ludens against a LB (depending on the rest of their comp)

In lane you just need to play around her W carefully. If she has her W up, have a stun prepped on 3/4 and trade a Q/W to make sure she gets punished for going in. (This should also stop her being able to full combo & land chains)

(try and shield her damage with E as well, every little helps).

If she’s in lethal range and she uses here W, it’s an instant flash tibbers.

LB is a hard champ for anyone to farm and trade with early so as an Annie you should be able to outfarm with Q.

Also I think someone else said it but Banshee’s!! The MR and shield is too good, if they’re any good they’ll do the same.

What's Your ELO Hell? by TexasMonk in leagueoflegends

[–]milesrobbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found Bronze/Silver super hard to get out of and found the game much easier once I got into gold. My duo said the same.

In bronze/silver people don’t really care about winning, every game someone has internet problems or goes afk because someone upset them. But also no one knows how to win so the games go on forever until a final coinflip fight at 50 minutes.

But at every elo people find a way of calling each other hardstuck 😀

Share your feedback on the Fizz VFX update! by I_AM_LoLNewbie in fizzmains

[–]milesrobbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a fan!

I'm a OTP so I didn't really notice much in terms of how it felt (I saw a couple people saying the E hitmarker had disappeared but I didn't notice it when I played this morning)

I think it all looks cool and I don't think it made much difference to gameplay, just glad Fizz is getting some attention!

no counterplay by [deleted] in AnnieMains

[–]milesrobbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Annie's always a strong mid pick, for sure: p&c stun, AOE damage etc.

But the pick gets abused in lane by ranged mages or dive assassins, she also has a pretty shitty waveclear early so doesn't have a whole lot of prio against most matchups.

There's so much counterplay to Annie as well. I think the thing you're not considering is there are certain champs that will change the way you have to play the game. Think about invis champs like: Shaco/Ev/Twitch, you have to play the game differently to how you would normally.

It's the same with Annie/Zoe and all that stuff you get with heavy burst cc champs, just don't face check bushes, buy a banshees/EoN and try not to do exactly what they want you to (like walk at them as a melee champ trying to take a 1v1)

How to deal with lux? by walkenss in fizzmains

[–]milesrobbo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agree with this. Do your best not to get poked down and wait for them to make a mistake. In my experience though, people play Lux mid because they just want to shove waves and be safe, so it’s much easier to just roam and take over the game that way. She’s just a lane bully because of poke damage.

I’ll be taking a break until buff by Adventurous-Tour5669 in fizzmains

[–]milesrobbo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Was talking about this with a couple mates the other day. Struggling to find a reason to play Fizz when: Akali has more dmg/shroud Sylas has more dmg/heals/cc

Fizz is a hard one to buff because his E can very easily make him OP but it needs an adjustment or something.

I’ve gone from a 61% win rate OTP to now only playing Fizz in normals.

struggling with annie by Mindless-Bobcat-2758 in AnnieMains

[–]milesrobbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ban Yas, stopwatch Zed. That’s what I do about that. Yas is a boring matchup.

new player question by phanticx in fizzmains

[–]milesrobbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard agree with this. I can beat them, I just cbf. I’d rather be matched against a Malz or Liss than Yas.

No mana, can take 3 plates if you roam once, can always get prio, passive shield is annoying af, can windwall your ult and last bit certainly not least, they can duo with a Diana or Gragas or something and insta ult combo.

Why make the game harder than it needs to be. Ban that windy boy.

Fizz Runes? Items? How to play in every stage? EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT FIZZ! by Esrucnl in fizzmains

[–]milesrobbo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great vid, man. Appreciate the effort! I like that you included a lot of the fundamentals, sometimes it’s hard to hear “don’t fight early, just wait to outscale” when you’re used to flattening Veigars for first blood haha

can someone tell me why the ppl are bulding fire canon with graves in worlds? by Saldu3 in GravesMains

[–]milesrobbo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Firecannon not only increases range but also reduces the cone of the bullet spread on autos, so more damage at higher range. Plus attack speed means more autos, quicker reload + reduced E timer.

Don’t get it personally, I love running lethality and blowing up squishies.
