They went with some little Gateway thing. It came with Windows 8 and a mountain of garbage installed.
Thus far I hate Windows 8. Haaaaaate it. Hate. And fuck you Norton.
I was told this morning that last night the cat stepped on the switch on the surge protector and now the computer wouldn't turn back on. I checked all the plugs, connectors, cords, and the thing is a corpse. No lights no sounds no bells no whistlescorpse.Given it's complete corpse nature I tried...
I blame the particle effect changes. I swear every fucking time they do a revamp they make the particle effects harder to goddamn see. Sivir used to glow like the fucking sun but now I'm not sure if it's a spellshield, a level up, a thresh shield aura thing, or whatever.
I suspect her win...
Last summer when I was out driving around I saw this land whale dressed in an exercise suit huffing and puffing down the street. She was huge and it was July. I have no idea what it was in her life that made her get up and get dressed and go outside and brave all of the chuckles and sneers that...
One of my primary fears right now is that I'll be digging around a basement at an estate sale and find a hidden passageway leading into a rape dungeon. I'm not even kidding. I haven't run across anything monstrous yet but I know there's a box of Nazi experimentation photos or Grandpa's snuff...
There you go, join the carry support bandwagon. I'm super villainous and start Doran's Ring in every lane I think I can get away with it. Ring, blue ward, green ward, biscuit, health pot, AP quints, AP glyphs if I think I can get away with them too.
One of my friends, when confronted with health care statistics, will either state that other countries are lying or cherry pick stats that the U.S. isn't miserable at.
BREAST CANCER SURVIVAL RATE WHAT ABOUT THAT HUH
Been in a couple queues this morning and he's been banned both times. Bans don't look like they've changed at all from the patch yet at my rating. It's still Kass Ahri Zed Jinx Wildcard Wildcard
Won my first game as support Heimerdinger despite allied Lee Sin calling me a troll for the first seven minutes of the game even after I gave him a next level leash at red. He was on tilt from losing the first game of his series so whatever.
As an AP middle I'm unconvinced but as a support I...
Heimer's turrets do not apply Lizard Elder. Fuck Zyra.
Also of note is that Heimerdinger gives some of the absolute best leashes you can get. If you start with turret and run to the buff you can get all three down by 1:30 and just hang out for a little bit. That is especially important for...
Heimerdinger's passive no longer heals towers. Champion unplayable.
I've played a bunch of Heimerdinger at each of the different points in his power swings and this current version feels pretty good. He's got a bunch of interesting buttons and lots of choices in a given situation. His turrets...
Supports with bad scaling are the exception, not the norm. Leona intentionally has shit scaling. Nami intentionally has shit scaling. That's about it. Supports aren't balanced around minimal gold either. Many of them predate the Eurolane bottom (ADC + someone who builds GP10 and doesn't farm)...
I think the direction they are going is just fine. Competitive supporting in S3 is a pile of monkey vomit. It's just that I don't believe them when they say they want junglers and supports to have more gold and I don't believe the rank and file of the player base is ready to play games where two...
Anyone remember the IPL4 game where Dignitas used revamp Soraka middle and Lulu top and were rewarded for their strat with champ bans in all future matches and nerfs to both champions literally the next patch after? Janna has seen changes specifically to keep AP Janna from ever being a thing...
Your league and your MMR can become disconnected. It's hard to say whether it's theirs or yours. If it's happening routinely the most likely explanation is that your MMR is higher than your league would reflect.
edit - yeah, unless they are zero LP silver 5s.
No, it wouldn't. The problems I am talking about aren't inexperienced players entering ranked before some members of the community think a player should. The problems I am talking about are the environment that people can continue to find themselves in after hundreds upon hundreds upon hundreds...
I maintain that low Elo games are miserable places for players to try and improve. You don't learn good lessons from the games you play and the whole thing can feel completely beyond your control no matter what you do.
I didn't say they made money off the secondary market. I said if I had a consumer base willing to spend the kind of ridiculous money that MtG players were willing to spend I'd not be willing to rock the boat with online action either.
I'm constantly stunned at the money that players of MtG are willing to shell out and the values of cards that they are willing to accept. If I had a player base like Hasbro does I probably wouldn't rock the boat either.
But that does create opportunities. I don't like Hearthstone at this...
I do not take the position that you should never surrender. There are plenty of times where I am happy to accept that I have been beaten and just want to move on. But I want the enemy team to establish they are better and that they aren't going to throw the game away. Getting wrecked during the...
