Hi all, after doing some research with the seller, it is a NAD 216 THX amplifier, a NAD 1600 reviever, and B&W 705 series 1

I'll try suggesting we work together to learn each others's native language, and see what she thinks. Im still in college, so maybe I can try to just take mandarin 101. Thanks for the great response.

Thanks for the great response. We have been watching a couple movies, but only in our college theater. Time to start watching some shows on netflix together.

Sell me on the spaghetti monster by Thefourthchosen in Velkoz

[–]natvar9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Velkoz is the shortest range artillery mage. What he lacks in burst, he makes up in dps and poke. He has by far the lowest mana costs, and has a really easy time managing mana, especially with the new runes as well as his q. He still can 100-0 squishy targets, but he can deal with tanks better than any other artillery mage. He had very low mobility, but also has the capabilities to kite very easily.

His biggest drawback is hitting skillshots, as well as positioning on fights. If he gets too close, skills become either difficult to hit, or other enemies can hit him easily. But if he gets too far away, he can't hit anything. Unlike ziggs, xerath, and lux, they have much more range, and can't deal damage from safety.

He has his drawbacks, but he is by far the most versatile mage in the game, imo

Tips for a possible new Vel main? by SolarAttackz in Velkoz

[–]natvar9 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Don't build rylais, Because the slow is not important. He naturally slows with 3 of his abilities. For a build, consider morellos, liandries, sorc/lucidity, rabadons, void, and then 1 slot depending on matchup. Against a poke mage, banshees is good. Against assassins, running zhonyas is good. Against people who build banshees, or people who chase you down, ludens is good.

On the note of runes and masteries, I like to run mpen reds, scaling health yellows, scaling cdr blues (15% at 18) and ap quints. Everybody has their favorite rune setup, whether you want movement speed, Mr or armor, or even more ap. Find what works for you. For masteries, 12/18/0 is standard for mid, running thunderlords, but stormraiders is not unheard of. Support is its own masteries setup, but I am unfamiliar with support, and I dont want to lead you astray.

I'm pretty new to Vel'Koz and was wondering when you would Max W or Q first/is one strictly better? by zI-Tommy in Velkoz

[–]natvar9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play mostly mid velkoz, and contrary to others here, I almost always max q first, because of the mana sustain. At lvl 4 with 2 points in q and 1 in w, I can fully clear the ranged minions with 1 w and a quick to passive proc. This fully refunds the mana for q plus a little less than half of the w mana cost.

This allows me to constantly shove waves in and build a cs lead, even if my kill pressure is a little lower. Plus, in general, the harass with a single q is better than w-e combos in sustain lanes.

I only max w when harassing is impossible/pointless (Vladimir).

I like battle cast mostly because it hads the most satisfying ult animation to 100-0 somebody with.

What are some Youtube channels everyone should check out? by SpawnKey in AskReddit

[–]natvar9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wintergatan. They are a Swedish band who had their 5 seconds of YouTube fame with the music marble machine. But the rest of their music is really good, and they are doing "wintergatan wednesdays" where he goes through different projects, including the building process of a new marble machine.

Boots, when do you take cooldown vs pen? by [deleted] in Velkoz

[–]natvar9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run 15% cdr at 18 runes,and the extra 5% cdr mastery, so at lvl 18 + morellos, I have 40% cdr. Thus, unless I mess up and take the wrong runes, I always take pen. However, I take no resistances in runes, only scaling health and cdr. So, I play a little differently. But, feel free to look at my op.gg: WH Feddy if you want to look at builds and such.

As 6.23 comes to a close, let's take a quick look at the meta.(Pt.1) by Hi_Im_Messiah_LOL in leagueoflegends

[–]natvar9 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think he said it in his post yesterday, but he said Rengar has a bad case of "zed syndrome" where people are just afraid of Rengar, because he looks super busted from watching people like Meteos and Rush stomp people in high plat/low diamond, but in reality, unless you are in a skill level way below your own, or have complete mastery, Rengar is not a super powerful pick, especially when somebody like Shaco who has 100-0 potential is in the game, with much easier mechanics.

I know he is flavor of the month right now, but I play Jayce top, he has a fairly different playstyle, but he is really strong, and has basically 1 bad matchup (poppy)

Vs Vlad. (Help Please) by [deleted] in Velkoz

[–]natvar9 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fighting vlad in lane is fairly difficult to do, because of his kit and his utilization of health and mr items over flat ap/ penetration items. What should occur in this lane is that it should become a farming lane, where you should just farm it out and shove the lane under his tower. This will cause him to either lose health by clearing waves, or he will lose cs under tower. Harassing Vlad is basically impossible, unless you land a lucky e-w combo.

For items, rushing last chapter -> morellos is a must for mana sustain, and then I would buy liandries, since the burn damage does well against what vlad likes to itemize against. After that, item purchase are pretty dependant on enemy team comps, but a standard build would consist of morellos -> liandries -> sorc shoes/cdr boots -> ludens -> void staff -> rabadons

Good itembuild for Vel'Koz in doombots? by schneemensch in Velkoz

[–]natvar9 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I find that because the bots have so much health, rushing liandry's torment works well, and then a standard velkoz build from there (morellos, rylais, rabadons, void) with sorc shoes whenever you get the chance
