TSM had the enemy blue warded and Lee hadn't yet shown up there. Level 2 Lee Sin ganks are no joke.

I know I ended up with some of the toys but I can't remember ever watching even a single episode of that.

Gah, Regi. What the fuck. Ulting as Zed onto a Jax that has Counterstrike available? I shouldn't feel like I know the Zed/Jax match up better than TSM or even the commentators.

This show was randomly dark as fuck.

"Other traits include co-mingling with negros, the smoking of marijuana or "reefer", homosexual tendencies, and opposition to the Vietnam War."

When I first got to 30 I figured I'd just lose all ten placement games and then have a trash tier account to duo queue with people who are in a series. I wasn't going to troll or feed on purpose or anything but if I thought if was just completely ineffectual the games would end up losses. I went...

If your MMR is higher than your tier you just need to win some games it it'll auto correct. I just finished a best of 3 yesterday on the smurf I'm using to help Ronne into Gold and went from Silver 3 to Silver 1 on it and my win/loss ratio isn't good. If your MMR is really out of line with where...

I've heard that is going away with the next season. If you MMR falls dramatically out of line with your tier you'll be able to lose it. Right now it is definitely confusing to be unable to decline past a full tier. You have little idea if a player is Gold 5 and has the appropriate MMR or is Gold...

This is kinda what I was talking about. The system doesn't work like anyone thinks it works like. You can reach Diamond 5, lose fifty games, and be back to playing with and against only silver players. The league you are in and the bracket you are in doesn't have anything to do with matchmaking...

I would totally hook that kid up. I would also hope to scare him beyond all rational thought.

LPs are only loosely connected to the rest of the system. It's really best not to think of them too much.

I used to watch him when he was on MSNBC or whatever it was.

I wish you would stop talking about regime change. That was never the goal in Syria.

As a kid I wanted to make a flying contraption like the Rescue Rangers had and went as far as to collect all of what I thought were the components of it. There was a phase where I was always trying to use things like kites and helium balloons to make flying things. I made parachutes and ran zip...

Blame it on Dungeons and Dragons. DnD is the hero that gaming deserves but not the one that it needs right now.

I had this feeling at the start of the season that vision wards were the new sight wards and while that never really manifested itself in the games I played it sure seems that way in high end competitive play. Pinks are placed everywhere by everyone.

Nightmares for days watching this shit as a kid. Decomposer freaked me right the fuck out. I remember asking Grandma what decompose meant and she had some chilling description that made it all the more horrifying.

The reason we've got this much, much complicated system is that it provides the illusion of progression for a big hunk of the player base. In S2 something crazy like half the players couldn't get to silver so that means half your ranked players just floundered somewhere around bronze forever...

I remember trying to explain to people how the league you were in had no effect on who you would play or play with and that your (now hidden) Elo was still everything.

Now there we go. We'll use cryogenics to freeze enough of them for a viable genetic assortment and re-engineer them down the road when the technology improves. What about vertical axis turbines? Don't those kill less birds or is that propaganda from the vertical axis lobby?

Giving protection from prosecution to an energy company that may kill endangered wildlife? Most. Liberal. President. Ever.

Factory farms are such downers. I don't mind the thought of a cow in a pasture being a cow and doing cow things until it takes a captured bolt pistol to the head. That's how we do things 'round these parts. We should all be so lucky to go so quickly. But those huge scale operations are real...

If I pick a fuck off dps class am I going to be sitting on my hands all the time or should I just put on the dress and be a healer like I always do?

I used to think that we would see the release of another large bundle akin to the boxed game or the champions bundle. Each of those was half the cast on launch day so buying one and getting the other for a gift I had everybody. When the cast is gigantic they'll release another 15+ champion...

You know what's better than that? Bricks of Nazi gold.

Alright. You have fond memories collecting sports memorabilia with your father and want to do something similar with your own kids? That's great. That's A+ parent stuff right there. It's your language that worries me. Your Dad always thought it was better to invest in something you enjoy...

I didn't leave the theater hating it but when I tried watching it a second time (omg unrated cut) I was just bored to tears. The replay value on this one for me was zero. I shut it off after Israel.

Ha.

Yeah, that's why I voted for him twice. Bias confirming.

I hope the answer to that is because any sane human being doesn't want to help Al-Qaeda and Al-Qaeda aligned forces.

I really wouldn't be surprised if they extended it again.

Last year the season didn't end until after Worlds and there was even a couple week extension after the first close date.

I was starting to like supporting in S2 and initially with S3 I thought it was just great. The increase to the cost of Crystalline Flask was annoying and I felt that the increase to the cost of Sighstone was a step backwards but even so I'm mostly fine with it. If I knew I could have that role...

That xPeke nexus kill and Nien's Elise game were just great, great moments to get to see. Nien threw that entire game on his spider back and carried it home. People still talk chant XPEKE when someone is trying to take down an objective solo when under assault.

I would think that would come with some restriction on how many could be purchased by the team at one time or changing wards to be Unique(2) or letting the bonus slot only hold one or something. If you just added a ward only slot and did nothing else any game that went super late would be...

Also in regards to jungling I hope very much they fiddle with the numbers again for S4. Being able to do buff + buff, ding 3, gank a level 2 lane (or be in position to counter gank), almost all choice has been removed from the equation. You get your buffs or you take the big risk and invade at...

I don't really know what I'm doing here.

The way to have done something like that would have been to make vision a component of more champions. Cloud 9 often runs Ashe + Zyra and the commentators often talk about how good the combination of Hawkshot is with Zyra's seeds. If there were more good vision oriented abilities among many more...

Alright, how do I model the game show producer knowing this and rigging the results so that switching is always a loss?

I think I might just cap how many you can have at one time so supports are just unable to start with 4 Sight Wards, 1 Vision Ward, and some pots. The ward system doesn't particularly bother me other than Oracles now not going away after dying. Even with the four minute duration that can be such...
