    I mean... again.. the problem with champs like Nasus is that they dictate how your team has to play... and yolo-q teams just dont coordinate well enough. I cannot stand when my team doesnt ban nasus then first picks a jungler with no ganking potential. Enemy team takes Nasus and sorry.. unless...

    Ya, i think its clear for the big10 to be taken seriously they need their brands to perform better. It needs to be 3 of OSU/Mich/Neb/PSU and 2 of the others performing well annually to have any credibility. Right now, out of the 4 brands, only 1 is living up to the hype. I always feel bad for...

    And if georgia was in the west their best finish would be.... 6th? Calm down broseph, stop getting your jimmies rustled over simple discussion. Anyone that objectively watches CFB realizes that Bama is playing its own game. The rest of the SEC is good, but no better than the other top teams...

    FYI- MSU has 3 11+ win seasons in the last 4 years with 2 different QBs (Cousins and now Cook). I would have agreed with you if you said this after Cousins left (and with a 7-6 season it was thought to be true). But the MSU QB isn't the reason this team is good. The defense is great and there is...

    Fnatic out picked c9 big time in the matches during worlds. Plus, I still think the worlds setup puts a lot of pressure on the top 4 teams due to not having any experience before quarters.

    EG looked really good in their matches. It looked like a pro team vs amateurs. I'm sure DTG feels like they got screwed... but they barely even competed. They made amature decisions in every match. Looked like a bunch of pub stars that grouped up for a PUG. Hiwever, i do think riot handles...

    Ultima Online - IPY3 release 2013

    Had a lot of fun on IPY1 but I dont know about UO anymore. I feel like without the sheep it is just no the same. And unfortunately I don't see sheep playing UO when there are so many more friendlier games out there. I'll probably log on for release... it seems like every time they change...

    MMO Glitches / Sploits

    In early UO in you could accept a rez and use a macro program to take 1 step forward. Doesn't seem great until you remember as a ghost you could go through doors. Brother and I looted a ton of houses before we got banned. I think this was also one of the first mass banning done on an mmo. At the...

    Things going well for us. With respect to gaming. For me its almost exclusively on weekends after the kid has gone to bed. Additionally I just sold my desktop and now game exclusively on a laptop. 5 year ago me would have called me a noob... but its much more convenient.

    I'm talking about Morello when he explainedwhy they won't buff poppy. The justification was her abilities are so strong on their own that if she ever became viable they would nerf her immediately.

    No sense arguing this as we have a fundamental different opinion of strategy. I'm an engineer. I make strategic decisions everyday based on statistical analysis. You never have the full answer. There are always assumptions. That doesn't mean there isn't strategy in the solution. Just means its...

    League Of Legends

    Poppy has Been intentionally nerfed because her mechanics are so strong. Riot has stated this multiple times. Why can't my opinion be strategy? I don't understand why my opinion is considered knee jerk but a pro team banning stuff is strategy? That makes no sense. I don't think soloq and pro...

    League Of Legends

    You keep missing the point. The strategy is there. Ban champs with mechanics that are stronger in soloq. Just because a champ becomes op after people find a strategy with them doesn't mean he wasn't op before. Its just now the strategy is available and people will exploit it. Its then up the...

    League Of Legends

    Well I'm banning also because I don't think my teammates can handle those mechanics. I never go bot lane (if possible) but still ban blitz. If little Timmy couldn't dodge fire in WOW how is he going to dodge hooks in league? I don't want to deal with that. So ban him. It benefits me because I...

    I don't agree. For instance. I ban nasus. Not because I think he is terribly op but because I don't like the idea of having a ticking time bomb top forcing me to change the way I play. My guess is people pick these champsif left open and then genuinely suck with them. That's why the win rate...

    Bans in soloq are important to weed outcchamps with mechanics that don't transition well to the solo q meta. Eve invis, blitz hook, amumu ult are all abilities that are incredibly strong in solo q because of the lack of teamwork/strategy. Champs are banned in lLCS based on play styles and...

    Really enjoying the s4 changes. The vision meta is a lot more enjoyable. Additionally the anti snowball changes keep most of the games competitive throughout the duration. Still think they need an answer for things like eve and teemo shrooms.. but all around its be a positive experience for me.

    I mean this is non news to anyone who actually wants e sports to become a thing. My guess is "moba" doesn't have a legal definition so they just chose games they though were a competition. Its a good thing for e sports. It means there is enough money to be made to warrant such a contract...

    I can get behind the rule if they do something like soccer.. where if a player tries to head the ball too low, its a dangerous play on him not the guy that put his leg up. The fact that the offensive player has no expectation to protect himself is just dumb.

    CFB 2013-2014

    Wow.. the targeting rule in CFB is dumb..... I think the only way to have a rule like that is they have to punish offensive players for putting their helmets down... now its impossible to tackle an offense player going ot the ground without hitting them in their helmet. What used to be...

    To me riot and league feels more like wow than eq.. they are too afraid to rock the boat so keep the same safe changes. Champions are overly balanced.

    Not being a fanboy, but this is the dumbest argument ever. Don't you hate how a business makes decisions based on making money! So dumb! The NFL constantly makes choices on increasing revenue. So does every company in the world. You don't think valve doesn't? Just because their champs are...

    New hand che k rules especially in the post are dumb. Ticky tack fouls all over the placed. I can't stand the NBA .. if they are trying to make cbb more like it then I guess I'll just have to stop watching.

    Calm down, was trolling you dota guys. On a more serious note I actually think league got the timing on combat right. Not so slow its boring but not so fast it's spammy. Its a nice middle ground between stare into book to med(eq) and hit every key at all times (wow). The only champ in league...

    Dota2 is like the WNBA... sure their fundamentals are better but league is a lot more exciting! Skill shots>>> denying. League has a lot more "twitch" combat and the fights arelonger. I used to love data/hon.. but after getting used to league it is definitely the superior game in my opinion.

    Ya.. right now I see this as a nice alternative to ARAM in league... when im not feeling like a serious game; ill play this as a casual alternative. Of course this could all change, but right now thats the feeling im getting from the information we have.

    I do fear riot is going to "spreadsheet based design" with league (much like blizzard did with wow). At some point you need to realize you can't just spreadsheet everything and some attributes are impossible to "calculate". A spreadsheet can never replace a true game designer.

    Morello is dumb. Lost respect for h when he claimed the counterplay for vayne is to send 2 people to kill her. He uses buzzwords much like any useless program manager does in corporate america. They also completely character assasinates nasus.. I hate his rework it just homogenized his...
