The LCK is getting Ddos'd again for a second night in a row. How crazy is it that pro games aren't run on a LAN.

Anidav posted:Yeah I'm helping lanes but the W doesn't actually work on ghouls lol. yeah the ghouls should definitely have AoE reduction, there's no problem with that and it's pretty important to allowing them to be a threat, but it definitely feels a little overboard when AoEs barely tickle them. drain is probably especially effected since it's a bunch of individual ticks that each have to go through that reduction.

It seems slightly unfair the amount of damage Twisted Fate is allowed to put out as an ADC while having a point and click two second stun on a short cooldown.

I miss when more characters had point and click CC abilities, they should bring that back tbh.

How crazy is it that pro games aren't run on a LAN. riot started it as a means of keeping the source code on lock, although i imagine there's enough serverside integration with stuff like chronobreak and observers that it'd be a massive project to create some kind of isolated LAN client and maintain it right now it looks like it's more a korea-specific issue, since streamers there have been getting hit by DDOS attacks for at least two months. speculation is that there's some kind of exploit in a korean-specific anticheat that's prolific over there, but no one knows for sure SirSamVimes posted:It seems slightly unfair the amount of damage Twisted Fate is allowed to put out as an ADC while having a point and click two second stun on a short cooldown. yeah, like, gold card's stun was explicitly balanced around the assumption that TF's combo was W + Q and maybe an E proc, not two seconds worth of kraken autos while you have an inbuilt ASPD steroid

The Skarner Rework is actually just promising they'll rework skarner

true gamesters will remember that original rework skarner was the first and only (maybe xin?) champion to hit a 60% release week WR

Let's not forget Cho'gath is in need of a new model pretty badly even if his gameplay could remain largely unchanged outside of number tweaks or a re-reworked E, Gentleman could be brought up to modern standards too. Runeterra Nidalee would be a upgrade over the current LoL Nidalee design too. Ra Ra Rasputin fucked around with this message at 14:20 on Mar 4, 2024 |

We definitely should be seeing more ASU's as time goes on. Cho'gath, Malphite... there's a whole list of champions who would benefit.

Basically every champion made before a certain date could use an ASU it's just a matter of who needed it most.

genuinely looks like one of their best reworks, especially given that they didn't have much to go off of beyond "has to have impale as a mechanic somewhere"

skarner's spires are the stupidest mechanic ever put into the game

New Q is just Deadwood's Uproot, which is good because that skill's cool.

It mostly looks good but his new ult looks unsatisyfing to use in a 1v1. Honestly it even seems like it'd feel a little limp to use even in a bigger fight when you're just sort of standing there waiting for your team to do things. At least when you Malz ult you're damaging them during it. Obviously it's not a power issue, just a visuals and gamefeel problem.

I like his new base design, he looks very armoured and the markings on his shell are cool. I don't know why they added yet another three hit passive, but aside from that the rework looks great. Can't wait to have fun with the burrow charge grabby.

Skarner E looks stupid busted and it even looks really good in the gameplay clips where you can’t get the wallpin.

SirSamVimes posted:I don't know why they added yet another three hit passive, but aside from that the rework looks great. they've talked about it here and there, but the tl;dr is that it's a pattern that adds some additional reward to a strong mechanical performance without being overbearing to people playing against it. league's basic structure makes it so that 2 autos or spells are trivial to hit together in a small window, but 3 can be tricky due to attack speed values and the limited number of abilities every champion has

i dont really like them as a laner because they usually offer too much control to whoever has the easier one to proc. akshan is never enjoyable to lane against for exactly this reason

yeah i dont really agree with that, at least not in solo lanes. i think basically every three hit proc, when on a viable ranged laner, just makes them a more annoying piece of poo poo than if they were balanced around not having it. its less so for melee laners

But to be clear, Akshan would do more damage per auto if he didn't have his 3 hit passive. You would be trading a burst of damage on the third hit, for larger up front damage on the first and second hits. Meaning he would have to take less time trading.
