    It doesn't work like that. ~ I think is the default keybind for the "champ only" targeting, which means if you hold it while casting a TARGETED spell, it won't cast on creeps. Sona/Heimer/AE/Anything auto-targeted like that won't be modified, just as anything you can't cast on yourself is...

    Loads fine for me. Checked it a few times today. Something on your/your isp's end? Or was swamped by all the people checking to see why no games tonight. (Scheduled day off, starts again tomorrow night)

    I agree that Bronze really needs to be spread out more. You still have a gigantic percentage of the player base squished into Bronze/Silver, Gold/Platinum/Diamond are mostly ok except for the clump at Diamond I because Challenger 'fills up'. With how many damn games it takes to get anywhere I...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I liked the GAH and I liked getting money back on the RMAH, depending on loot 2.0 I may or may not miss it though. If I still HAVE to go out trading/3rd-party-shopping then that will suck. Based on the console version feedback I doubt that would 'fee' very needed though.

    Yea. Loot 2.0 should be at roughly the same time based on what they've said so far. Which sucks, that is damn far away :l

    League Of Legends

    It's not even about carrying so much, Riot was talking about how they want supports to be able to increase in power as the game goes on, i.e. scale like every other role does. How they'll manage that when 90% of a supports' power comes from mechanics is a mystery, but season 3 introduced some...

    I think a 'ward slot' goes a long way towards teaching people to ward. Handicapping the amount of wards out on the map (beyond a certain point) won't affect the majority of games at all, because it is a rare average-ELO game where there's ward control or ward fights or any of that. JUST limiting...

    Holy crap that was fast. I blame Neogaf. It was at like $50,000 or something when I looked this morning.

    If they add a ward slot, then for sure they'll have to add limitations to them. What if each player could only have 2 wards live at a time, AND the wards have reduced sight range? Makes placement more important and mid-late-game shitting 10 wards all over the map should cover about the same as...

    From the way the dev was talking about wards for s4, it really sounded like a ward slot was in the cards. Obviously reading into it a bit but that was what jumped to my mind anyway.

    What are you playing?

    I'm gonna pick that up for me and then gift it to a few other people around the holidays and make them play with the wife and I. Last one was so much fun. I just got Rogue Legacy and played it for a while last night. I can see this game becoming a problem for free time in my future.

    If co-op gets implemented, I think it would be harder to meet my expectations, because then I'd be comparing it to playing Secret of Mana back when I was 11 or whatever :P One can hope, though.

    Yea, debating whether I want the nice $40 game + every-cool-thing donation or just like $10/15 for the game or game + some purty pictures. I don't think I'll regret it either way honestly.

    I actually haven't looked at the other kickstarter threads so dunno if there's a "format" to use, but this seems like the type of game other people here would love to play: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...-light-drifter It'll probably be the first kickstarter game I throw money at...

    The thing that keeps me from playing Dominion is that the points are effectively all or nothing. I would much rather the enemy team just loses nexus health for each point you have and yours loses health for each one they have. The way it's set up now feels like the entire binary system is set up...

    Win-more is great for solo queue though. I don't really buy the 'dead' thing, at end-game, with ADC items, he's still decent range with 2 steroids, an ok-disengage/CC, a sorta AE sorta global ult. He's gonna do shittons of damage and kill people just like anyone ranged who buys IE + BT + PD +LW...

    Isn't it for company-based teams? I know Google/Amazon have been the teams to beat past 2 seasons. One of my company's major competitors keeps making it to the top 8 so my goal is just to beat them :P

    I just did the tryouts for my company's team on Saturday. Pretty weak showing for the most part but we have a great support, at least one solid top (besides me), and I think I won the ADC role (even though that was my secondary pick). Not sure on any of our mids. Mostly it was a disorganized...

    It's a free-to-play game. It's been used for achievement ticket rewards in the sales sometimes. I dunno why it would just pop into your library but yea it's free for everyone.

    Iceborn vs. Trinity is more of a tough decision now. I would still do Iceborn against any team with 2 ADs (ADC + jungler or bruiser or whatever). Trinity is not terrible on him now though.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Act III is definitely close to that. Hordes of shit everywhere and a lot of the hardest-hitting monster types in the game. Plus lots of side dungeons and big open areas to roam in. Act II can suck it, Act I is ok sometimes, Act IV is.... special

    I'll probably add you too. I hit my gold promotion series with like an 80% winrate and then proceeded to lose 3 games in a row somehow. Should not play ranked that soon after moving or something. But I should hit promo again in a day or two if I play ranked so hopefully can climb out. Edit...

    Rank still has no (or approximately no) effect on matchmaking. I skyrocketed into my gold promotion series and fought plat players 3 games in a row, crushing my team pretty badly and dropping me back into Silver I without much fanfare. I did have some plat players on my team as well, but there...

    The Zac and Elise nerfs have almost all been aimed at competitive/high level play. They try to hit outliers at least. But yea with 6 bans and 10 picks, there's just not going to be 90 champs picked equally often, much less 114 (115 now?). Melee ADC's will not be picked until Riot does something...

    I cannot fathom how people are bitching about getting to respec so easily in this game. I tweak a skill set or even just a rune near every time I play just to try things out. Do you really want to play a character class again 1-60, 4 times through the game, because you got enough gear finally on...

    Melee ADC's are never going to be appearing in Pro/High ELO games until there's some significant reason to be one. Right now, Trynd occasionally can fill the Split-push-forever-duel-anyone role but there's several other champs that safer to do that with. Fiora and Yi aren't ever going to be 50%...

    I only really play Yi in lane so I'm not totally 100% on this, but I would think it's never worth it to build Lizard Elder on Yi. The only stat it gives that he cares about (AD) is low for 2000 gold, he clears jungle insanely fast anyway, and the passive true damage doesn't really scale with his...

    Tomb Raider (X360/PS3/PC)

    The timing on the "Y" QTE's (I dunno what they translate to on the keyboard) took me a bit to get used to, seemed way off to me. After the first few times I botched it I don't think I missed any though, except for one that happened during a 'cutscene' that totally caught me off guard~

    It's a definite buff to AD Yi compared to before, yea. He's probably as good a pub stomper as ever but he basically fills the same slot as Trynd/Aatrox and is less reliable at it, so I wouldn't expect to see him that much once people just start picking CC champs all over the place again...

    There's been like half a dozen threads about it on Reddit that hit the top of the League subreddit page, it's affected TONS of people. It seems much more scattered now than it was and I know Riot has been trying to work things out as best they can on their end too (even though it's a Comcast issue).

    I would be shocked if this wasn't just a 'bonus' for the season pass holders. BL2 Season Pass nets you like 6 or 7 total DLC things even though it says 4, the 4 it talks about are actual expansion-style DLC and the bonuses are just cause I guess. The arena challenges is cheaper than the other...

    The new Yi is better at being AD Yi than the previous one, but AP Yi is gone obviously. Good riddance I say, but I do really like the new Yi, I don't think he's as good as Tryndamere for the 1v1 split push all day role, but he can output a ton of damage in teamfights depending on team comp.

    I dunno if you just only watch certain pros, but the majority of them solo Q it up when they smurf, even starting out. Certain ones duo Q but they're usually the ones that duo Q on their mains as well.
