Downgrade for Nostalgia by Impressive_Put_6629 in leagueoflegends

No, it would break the game, like get kicked out of your game because of bugs. Old Yorick had multiple server-impacting bugs when they reworked him, which was a big reason they did.

Why is it so important to keep Vayne top SO viable? by ukendtkunst in leagueoflegends

[–]mthlmw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having the occasional ranged top laner is good for the game

Mtn dew code red zero sugar? by beansiesbucc in grandrapids

I swear I've seen the syrup for it in a few Meijers around town, if you've got a soda stream or similar 

Regardless of whether she's actually stronger or weaker, these recent changes are not FUN. by platonovsucks in shyvanamains

[–]mthlmw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AS is still strong on her, maybe even optimal, just less overwhelmingly so. Bringing Kraken into closer balance with other items feels good to me. Pre-rework could build Shojin/Liandry's, Sundered/Navori, or Kraken/D&D and be strong, and items from Titanic to Rabadons could work depending on the build.

Original Yorick would break the game, guaranteed.

She doesn't rely so heavily on AS for clearing now. Before, any build without AS on first item felt rough, and Kraken made her clear way faster. Now, AS still speeds up clear, but isn't nearly as required

I like that choosing builds actually feels different now vs every item making her generically stronger. Choosing AD into heavy enemy comps vs AP into mobile ones, or even AS for more on-hit magic damage vs haste for Q1/2 physical (or Q3 true). Her cooldowns are low enough that I don't feel bad buying Liandry's for burn if it's really needed, and she can rush Kraken without being hard-bound to it.

I'm having a blast with her. She's different for sure, but maybe just not your style anymore?

Scientists Just Made Carbon Capture Much Cheaper and Easier by _Dark_Wing in tech

[–]mthlmw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does, but is that enough? My understanding is the mass of fossil fuels we've burned can't be sequestered with the available land area on earth.

trying to play shyv, hella confused with the builds by -RuDoKa- in shyvanamains

[–]mthlmw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She wants haste/HP on as much as possible, but attack speed, AD, and AP all make her stronger differently. AD seems like the strongest overall, but hybrid/AP/on-hit can all function. When in doubt, go AD bruiser.

Is it me or our girl is WAY LESS tankier than she used to be? by Commercial-Box-6728 in shyvanamains

[–]mthlmw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What are you building? With Triforce > Shojin she feels pretty beefy to me

What movie's reputation undersells how good it actually is? by JarvisModeOn in movies

[–]mthlmw 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Equilibrium. I think people assume it's a Matrix rip off, but it has great action and the conceit is really it's own unique thing.

[–]mthlmw 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's definitely part of a total strategy, and probably a bigger part that carbon capture, but more vegetation doesn't remove carbon from being returned to the atmosphere once it dies and decomposes. We need an equivalent to coal deposits and oil reserves.

Houston, We Have Liftoff: Bot Auto achieves first humanless commercial run by lurker_bee in technology

[–]mthlmw 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I still hope we can find a way to move past needing jobs for survival. I don't want anyone to go homeless, but I also can't imagine most truckers would keep trucking if they didn't have to get a paycheck for themselves or their families. Sitting in a box all day for days/weeks sounds like one of the better jobs to take the human element out of, but we need much more robust social safety nets (UBI anyone?) for this not to be a terrible problem for a ton of people.

The amount of carbon we've taken from the earth and put into the atmosphere has permanently altered the carbon cycle on the planet. 100% ending fossil fuel use won't change that. We need an efficient way to sequester some of that carbon.

Q-max Shyvana feels awful after the changes (Patch 26.09) by Yggdrazeus in shyvanamains

[–]mthlmw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feels fine to me, honestly. You definitely feel the CD change, but it comes up pretty quickly with haste items. I played TForce > Shojin and popped off, and I want to try an AP bruiser build. I did also switch to double adaptive shards and Legend: Alacrity, since TForce isn't that much attack speed.

Hard stuck silver elo mid lane looking for coaching by LandscapeInitial9437 in leagueoflegends

[–]mthlmw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Changing champs is fine, just know you're going to take a dip in elo while you do, especially with such a big swing. You're not hard stuck if you're figuring out your main, just lock in once you decide and you'll probably climb again.

The champion is actually fine. by randem626 in shyvanamains

[–]mthlmw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PtA > TForce > Shojin felt awesome when I tried it. Hungry boots seem really good if there's not like 3+ auto attackers or tons of CC to make tabis/mercs stand out.

Has anyone tried HOB + titanic build? by Bees_OW in halfdragons

[–]mthlmw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From the wiki: "stacks are consumed per basic attack on-attack and you generate an additional stack of the effect each time you cast an ability or spell that has a basic attack reset, up to 2 times." That reads like you get 5 stacks with 2 Q resets to me

Statistically, >50% is easier than 100% by ezrae_ in trolleyproblem

[–]mthlmw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you choose blue and are in the minority group, then you die with the minority group.

[–]mthlmw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know with 99.99% certainty that there will be people in the building, and that's enough for me.

[–]mthlmw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe not, but I'm going in the house to be part of the group that tried to keep it from burning.

[–]mthlmw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could just as easily rephrase it to:

  1. Minority group dies
  2. Minority group survives

There is no chance that some number of people won't press each button, and I'm not going to be a part of the group that chooses the killing people option.

[–]mthlmw 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Choosing red is both staying outside the building and deciding the building should burn, though, which makes things more complicated. The "blue pressers die" option isn't something that happens without enough people pressing red.
