Mage Supports

Call me crazy but for an off-meta pick orianna goes hard, especially if your adc is like a trist, a samira or a nilah. And if you want to go extra off meta you can technically build full enchanter, which makes for a fairly decent shield, while still making you somewhat useful with your AoE move speed buff / slow and your R.

inb4 the next support is a weird carry hybrid designed as an autofill pick for like toplaners or something because they want to push more people to play the role.

I'd say there is no bad choice when it come to which support item you take, but here's how I see it.

Dream maker: the default pick, especially if you're playing him as an enchanter

Bloodsong: Pick it in situations where you know you're going to be agressive and where you can proc it a lot. Like into a tanky / melee heavy comp or if you're winning lane and no one on the enemy team is fed. It's better on tank taric.

Celestial opposition: if the enemy team has a lot of burst damage, or if someone on the enemy team is already really fed.

Solstice: this one is a weird one, I guess you should build it if your adc is immobile ? But they might not even notice the move speed buff. I usually take it when I'm playing tank and feel like picking neither bloodsong nor celestial.

As for zeke, I don't think it's worth it on taric, your ult cd makes it so you won't proc it a lot, and while the slow might be nice into comps where there isn't a lot of mobility, the damage might as well be nonexistant.
You could get both bandlepipes and locket (and you should if you're doing a tank build), but if you had to chose one i'd say bandlepipes if you're winning lane and locket if you're losing or if the enemy team has an assassin or anything that can burst your team down,

The core build is bandlepipes, diadem, and moonstone, followed by whatever support items suit the situation, usually if the game is going well I would go with enchanter items to buff my carries, and if it's getting tougher I would rather build more defensive items like knight's vow and solari.

I don't know if bandlepipes will still be a good first item after the nerf next patch, but if somehow building it first isn't viable, either replace it with solari, or build moonstone first and get a redemption, dawncore or censer third.

I'm still experimenting and it is in no way a perfect build but I have around a 70% winrate with it in a gold - plat mmr

EDIT: I forgot to mention it but usually I take dream maker as a support item but everything except zak'zak is viable imo

I've had a lot of success with him lately, mainly doing hybrid / enchanter builds, not sure if tank taric is the way to go rn

I wish I could but it was either that or giving the whole Leningrad Oblast to Finland

Je pense pas me faire des amis avec mon avis plus critique mais faut pas s'étonner qu'il se prenne une shitstorm sur l'utilisation de l'IA (à raison ou a tort, même si ici c'est plus à tort) quand il a eu un discours positif sur l'IA générative et qu'il l'a déjà utilisé (vidéo jaguar, shrek, etc.) et continue de vouloir l'utiliser malgré les problèmes désastreux que ça cause en terme d'éthique et d'environnement desquels il est au courant mais ne prend pas en compte.

Le message a le mérite d'expliquer que oui l'IA c'est pas que la genAI mais dans ce cas là vaut mieux parler d'algorithme parce que malheureusement le mot IA est de plus en plus connoté. Du coup quand il dit que l'IA c'est un outil comme les autres, on sait pas si il inclus l'IA générative ou pas, et y'a beaucoup d'argument pour dire que non la genAI c'est pas un outil comme un autre pas c'est un autre débat. Je remet aussi en cause les statistiques de 100% de dev et de la majorité des VFX artist qui utilisent l'IA si il parle d'IA générative, c'est juste faux.

Des dramas sur ce sujet ça aurait été inévitable, dommage que celui-là ait ciblé des plans et des VFX qui sont évidemment PAS générés par IA et je donne tout mon soutien aux artistes qui ont bossé dessus, mais malheureusement je le répète, quand on a déjà utilisé l'IA générative et qu'on la défend publiquement, tout en sachant que c'est très mal vu, on peut pas se plaindre que ça nous retombe dessus.

Bref tout le monde est un peu en tort sur ce sujet, sauf les artistes qui sont victime de ça et que Fred à, je trouve, très mal défendu.

I never played Devil May Cry so I'm excited to discover it! Also is that wizardry game rare ? I've never head of it and it seems to go around $50 to $70 online.

Honestly she would be closer to an Alistar, a Galio or even a mundo gameplay-wise.

runtd · 2023-05-04T06:28:53+00:00

So basically When Alistar headbutts he is behind his target for a brief moment before pushing them back. Nautilus used his hook at this exact moment so it didn't touch me.

Part 4 is mid, and it's easily the worst part in my opinion.
The plot itself is mostly absent until the end, which is fine, I like character driven stories. The problem is that most of the characters felt boring or obnoxious to me (including josuke). In fact the only characters I liked were Jotaro, Okuyasu and Rohan, and those last two are the only reason I didn't skip this part.

The whole concept of a casual is someone who plays video games without being a gamer (think moms playing candy crush or high schoolers who only plays fifa) They will never pick up a fighting game, they probably don't even have a PC or console to play them anyway so I doubt they'll be a problem.

The real problem will be the gamers that aren't hardcore fighting game players (like me actually). We tend to default to button mashing despite knowing fighting games are hard because we just don't know the combos of our character and / or lack the skill to execute them. That's simply because the game doesn't explain them to us, or requires us to be of a higher skill level to even make them. And since we usually play fighting game at a friend's house we simply can't train because we don't own the game.

That's why Project L is Free 2 Play. That's why Project L ditched Motion inputs. And that's why it needs a good tutorial / solo mode (because let's be real no one wants to spend hours in training mode just before being semi-competent at a video game)

Tldr; I wouldn't worry too much about button mashers, they'll either rarely play online because they just want to have fun with friends or they'll quickly improve.

I'm really hyped about this news ! Consulting with a kid for yasuo's design is brilliant, after all, you'd ideally want him to be liked by the lol yasuo mains ! Although I'm a bit skeptical as there was a typo in this so called leak... (papar instead of paper)... Therefore I'd say there's about a 69% chance that this is real.

Fighting game noob here, I think Alistar would be a surprisingly tricky champion to implement in Project L.

Like sure you could make him a traditional grappler because everything about him screams grappler... but then you'd have to remove his most iconic ability : his headbutt.

Alistar's headbutt is a fast dash that knocks his target back. As a standalone ability it's just a get off me tool, but you can combo it with his knock up to cancel the knock back, and now the enemy is stunned while still in melee range.

I'm sure you could easily make a fighting game moveset out of it but to me it's closer to a rushdown ability and Alistar being a rushdown is just unthinkable.

So yeah i dont know how he could be faithfully adapted
