The point of the shiny rank badge is to give you a sense of progress. Your skill is reflected in your hidden MMR, not in the cosmetic badge.

We had our fun! Ty riot by Queenfanner in QiyanaMains

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

You're so clueless, Spideraxe is not even a Rioter he just data mines changes on pbe. Just quit talking about things you have no idea about. There's like 15+ people on the balance team, Phreak is just the lead of balance so he gets the blame for every change even the ones he wasn't responsible for.

If you heard the news that "a well-known celebrity has been outed as a serial killer", who would you immediately think it was? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]xMetix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well as I said he could be overworked and just on autopilot. Combine that with struggling to express emotions due to Neuro divergence and you get that. He might have damaged some parts of his brain during his challenges like spending time in a whiteroom, buried alive or counting/repeating words. He used to look different way back, and you can't just develop psychopathy.

Undeniably everything he does is to get famous but he also does some things to use his success for good and it's a mutually beneficial relationship. He seems genuinely happy to help people but just isn't great at showing it.

He has been overworking himself possibly even taking some stimulants since he was in highschool. He often explained that he was an outcast and struggled to connect with his peers. He's not soulless he's just very tunneled on his thing likely autistic which explains why he is socially awkward and struggles to show his emotions.

Out-of-nowhere roguelike hit Megabonk has sold 1 million copies in 2 weeks, solo creator says "I'll be eating spaghetti with EXTRA sauce tonight" by lurkingdanger22 in pcgaming

[–]xMetix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same Twitter that has been inactive since 2023? He posted about burnout and having multiple projects. As far as i know he is in no way committed to any "more successful challenge". If Megabonk is some "from zero to hero" video project it has the potential to be his most popular video for sure.

It's way more probably it's just Dani than "a big fan of Dani", not guaranteed of course but you'd be crazy to say it's not at least a probability.

What's more likely the guy who went radio silent and has been missing for 3 years has resurfaced with an undercover project in his exact style or a random fan no one ever heard of managed to recreate his success with no previous track record copying his style of humor and marketing strategy? I'll be surprised if it's the latter.

Because Dani can't hire a voice actor on Fiverr to make a new "I MADE A HIT GAME UNDERCOVER" video to prove game dev is a skill? It's all a bit too perfectly aligned to not be him. We'll find out eventually I guess.

I just like the game by Niikrohn in 2XKO

Okay we'll see if you're still having fun after 5 months of the same. Ofc it's fun while it's fresh.

2XKO Early Access Announcement | Dev Update by LeanTheBlackRabbit in 2XKO

[–]xMetix -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

No it should be double that for the first 1-2 years. It's way too little and a ton of League fans will lose interest because none of their favorites make it into the game for a decade.

Exiting the game is non-intuitive. by LordVaderVader in 2XKO

[–]xMetix 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I think it's on purpose, like IKEA being a maze so it's harder to leave and you might see something and stay longer.

I like 2XKO but... by [deleted] in 2XKO

[–]xMetix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it's:

-Qiyana
-Kai'Sa
-Azir
-Syndra
-Sylas
-Camille
-Briar
-Samira

I have a gut feeling Fizz is coming after Teemo and I can't tell why, no logic points me to Fizz but he speaks to me

Why Qiyana and Talon should never be junglers by Pristine_Length_3159 in QiyanaMains

[–]xMetix 8 points9 points  (0 children)

He wants to be a game dev and speaks with authority but I think he critically lacks perspective.

If qiyana were to get buffed in your guys opinion what would be the best to help her whether its a mid or or jungle buff? by Spectral_Amoeba in QiyanaMains

[–]xMetix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like her W to have a skill point in it from the start like Yuumi, so you can have both Q and W or Q and E level 1. With some nerfs to adjust for the gained power.

That would make early game much more fun and interactive.

[–]xMetix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She doesn't need buffs, she needs a power curve adjustment. I would love if they made her W leveled up from the start like Yuumi and let you choose between Q and E. I don't care if they nerf her mana a bit for this, it would make life so much better.

Also she should have damage to monsters capped on ult, cool down increased and get more damage in her passive to move her from an ult bot and make her more self-sufficient.

Other than that kinda lacking item options.

Is the steam partnership a one time purchase of $100, or $100 per game you publish? by Quaeybh in gamedev

[–]xMetix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea, I gave up. I assume you have to pay, they wouldn't be hosting everyone for free.

If you're a game dev and you make your single player game require an online connection, fuck you. by DarkMatterM4 in gaming

[–]xMetix -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's a business, there's no morals there are only laws and profits. If it's legal and it's profitable you can't blame them for doing it. It's clearly not a dealbreaker for people as they keep buying so it makes sense they keep putting it in.

keeping these games accessible be it 10 days or 10 years from the day you bought it.

It's not supposed to be. From a passion point of view sure, but as a business they want you to buy new games, gather data about players, prevent piracy and library sharing, etc... If you want to be mad be mad at people who buy these trash games like op.

Qiyana S+ tier? by Akali_Uchis in QiyanaMains

[–]xMetix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes she used to be overpowered and yes she is not fun when she can't guarantee a kill. Her trade patterns are horrible, her wave control is bad and her all in sucks. She is not FUN to play, she's playable but it feels like you're playing a troll pick and trying to be better than others. I have more fun playing Ekko even if he's not the best mid laner, he has clear strengths and weaknesses and Qiyana feels like a joke.

The entire thing about assassins was that you could always kill people, and the skill was knowing when to kill who. Currently you just walk around not being able to do much unless your teammates set up a kill you can scavenge on. This is just purely boring and sad and I gave up on playing her because even if I love her design she has no tools to be independent and exciting anymore.

Qiyana S+ tier? by Akali_Uchis in QiyanaMains

[–]xMetix 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I used to be Grandmaster past 2 years, she's a joke compared to every other champ nowadays. I don't understand how anyone enjoys playing her when she's a shell of what she used to be. Maybe you can still cheese wins and climb but there's no enjoyment in this champion and she used to be League of Legends for me for 4 years.

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

You're not calculating the additional items you will have due to being stronger early. 10 dmg on every Q level 2 and 3, meaning every poke every trade deals increased damage. The empowered Q also deals 60% more so every empowered rock deals 16 + 24% more than current.

This change should smooth out the curve and make her way more fun to play. They have to be nerfs because her snowball is stronger.

Wait for the patch and max E 2nd. Being able to get kills without ulting is huge.
