    The rune camera is good for the first 5-10 minutes. Courier cam is worthless as you can see it on the minimap, and it's not like seeing where it's going is useful. The 3 way split between lanes at the laning stage was kind of cool, but didn't seem to get used much.

    They're only doing those cams on the Secret/Na'vi games. All the others have been normal.

    Gotta say I love watching Na'vi dominate the shit out of Secret. It's strange too, because I was a really big Secret fangay with the old roster. I think I just hate Arteezy. And I really like w33 and Misery.

    I can't figure out which game to watch. Torn between OG/Empire, Wings/DC. Secret/Na'vi might be good too...fuck. Also, there's always people in the Rerolled channel. No one ever says anything, but there's at least 6 people usually.

    I should clarify that I'm talking about pro games here. I've noticed it for a while, but I was watching an MVP game and it was just horrendous. He landed awesome Chrono's with team support there, but because FV doesn't do shit for damage it just ended up delaying their ass whooping.

    I know people were talking about FV a bit for this patch, but I keep watching games and I swear it's just a worthless hero. Chrono is basically only good for removing a few heroes from the fight for a handful of seconds, but as a carry FV just has garbage damage. It's so frustrating to see a...

    Yeah, by delaying it until now, they'd be having way too many characters coming back to life suddenly. If they wanted LSH, they should have done it a long time ago to spread it out. As it is, it's going to be ridiculous with everyone coming back to life at once.

    Unless he's out there every day running drills or something, it seems like he wouldn't be in football shape anyway? He'd probably be better off befriending some NFL players and doing offseason workouts with them. Granted, that'd be something for next year and not right now though.

    Yeah, Secret is the one team I think has no shot at it and I have pretty good confidence in that. Literally every time I watch this new roster, there's no cohesion at all there.

    So, Benjen confirmed Coldhands after all? (edit: Saw the other posts regarding him. Fuck GRRM for saying it wasn't) The Arya stuff confused me. Why was she so empathetic towards the Cersei actress? We all knew she wasn't really a Faceless Man, but the way that went about was just...not even...

    If there's one thing I've learned over the years, it's that crappy coaches can stay in the NFL for as long as they want. It's amazing how little results seem to actually matter.

    Can someone explain why that's even a rule? Is this some retarded union thing where they figured it would prevent injuries or something? It just seems like a really asinine rule.

    Kind of surprising that it just took one lackluster season to kill the show. You'd think the first season would have at least bought another season or two. There are some absolutely fucking terrible shows that last longer than two seasons.

    While the changes do indeed sound good, I just don't see myself picking it back up. Unless my friends just absolutely badger me incessantly to play, I think this is way too late. I still can't figure out why it took so long to change the HE drops back. Like, it was a same day change to get...

    I'm at work so I can't check Yasp, but I'm always top 3 in LH (about the only thing I can count on in a game is that I'll out farm everyone, even on support; I have a Jakiro game where I think I was #2 in LH). I'll admit I'm terrible about team fights, but it's usually a 2:1 or 3:1 KD, and 3:1...

    Wait, I thought if you got the 3 stars, you got all the points? It's if you get 1 or 2 stars, you can go back and get the others for extra. The new ranked is really weird. I've won 5 of 6 so far, but it seems like each time the MMR of my teammates/opponents go down. It's gotten to the...

    Just based on how it feels watching it, it seems like there's a ton more commercials. The commercials almost always have a lead in with a wide shot of the audience, and end with another 30-60 seconds of clips. If you cut out some of that, you could afford to talk to half the cast.

    Well, the travel thing has basically been an issue the entire show. That said, I wonder if a massive amount of time hasn't passed since the last episode, as he even mentioned that the army was now in Deepwood Motte (or one of the other northern areas, can't remember off hand).

    The new red priestess was hot. Hope she gets naked soon. And yeah, Sansa's tits were superb. Most of this episode seemed kind of boring, to be honest. But the Night's Kind shit was pretty awesome, and Hodor hit the feels. I also enjoyed the red priestess with Varys and Tyrion scene, just...

    I don't understand the hate for Michelle. The "salty" jury was even brought up, but Julia voted for Michelle. If you look at who was voted out, Michelle was incredibly smart in her alliances and it showed. She stuck by Cydney to keep her vote, she made the smarter decision between Joe and...

    I was actually fine with her winning. Aubrey probably played better overall, but the relationships Michelle made were stronger. Tai would've been the only poor choice, and even that wasn't nearly as bad as most seasons since he had a really strong first 2/3 of the game.

    Once again I don't fucking understand how you don't practice making fires before the show. Also, Tai went from masterful to awful in a hurry. His conversation with Michele after they got rid of Cydney and she says "you just handed Aubrey the game" he gets this look on his face like he didn't...

    I think he just means that you have 0 Super Bowls, while the rest of the division all have multiple. You're the whipping boys because you've never won it all, not in a "Cleveland Browns basement dweller every year" kind of way.

    Being a fan of a team that's consistently underachieving really makes these types of things a lot less stressful. Pretty much anything higher than 6 wins and I'm generally happy. I expect a playoff appearance (and immediate loss) about every 4-5 years.

    I'm glad this week was so funny, because Silicon Valley left a lot to be desired with comedy (not that it was bad, just lacking). There are so many quick one off jokes that you can miss with this show. Little snide comments, or just little reactions to things, that make for good humor.

    Okay, so I went and watched a video about it and now I'm tempted to buy the level 50 one. It sounds like there's a decent chance that I'd be able to hit 125. I just wonder how many games per week I'd need to play to hit it.
