League of Legends (Old)

[GreyICE]

League is great! Solo queue is great! Andrius can go curl up in a corner and die!

[Ankamius]

I strongly doubt that any MOBA game doesn't have this issue in some capacity.

[GreyICE]

League is great! Solo queue is great! Andrius is not great at mafia or league!

[DeathRowKitty]

If you hate the game, then stop playing it. Simple as that.

[Ankamius]

I was really just making a point, but lowering the scope. Pretty much every online game in existence is going to have giant asshole trolls in them. The only way to ever really escape them is to limit how many people you play with or just stop playing online games entirely.

[CF Riot]

Don't try to logic GreyICE down. He's pissed cause a douche ruined his game. Don't bother explaining the inherent risks of social interaction, we all know that already. Just let him vent cause having douches ruin your games sucks.

I'm with you man. Fuck people.

[dramonic]

So the genre is defective?

No, existence is defective in general.
Solitaire doesn't have trolls though, so you could play that!

Nah, bro. That game fucking cheats. Especially Spider Solitaire man. The computer never gives you the right cards and shit, it's like it's trolling you cause it knows where it puts the cards and how to win, but it laughs at you instead of being like "boom have a solvable possible". Fuck that trolling ass Solitaire.

[Nikanor]

You have to admit, though, that League of Legends is certainly exceptional when it comes to its horrible community.

Just popping in to say how bad this game is, bye.

[quadz08]

I honestly think League's community is, on the whole, pretty non-terrible?

I mean it's not a paragon of goodness and virtue or anything, but it's far from being "OMG EVERY GODDAMN PERSON IS A TERRIBLE PERSON"

[GreyICE]

I had one real game yesterday. One was decided by a support Sion, one by a support Poppy on the enemy team.

I get Doublelift might be able to win a kog vs vayne Leona lane 1v2 but I'm not Doublelift.

But at the end of the day the issue is the ratio of real games to lawl wut games is less than 1:1. It should be around 10:1

[quadz08]

Do you find it to be < 1:1 over the entire course of every game you play, though? I mean, yeah, you had shitty day yesterday in terms of teammates; I totally get how frustrating that is. I'm doubtful those stats are consistent day-to-day, though.

[Ankamius]

I'm never SoloQing in the middle of the night ever again.

No more.

Honestly? This is fairly consistent.

[quadz08]

Maybe I'm just lucky, or you're just unlucky. Odd.

[Benmage]

I've made it to 30 if anyone wants to game!

How long do these seasons last? I feel I need to unlock some more heros for more versatility for ranked games.

I feel it alternates weeks for me. I have scumbag teammates for a week or so and i can't win, and then i'll get awesome teammates for a week.

[Benmage]

10-3-20 lux 450+k dmg dealt 90k dmg dealt to champions... We defended our base with no towers losing inhibs, goin back n forth back n forth, unable to leave base for like 20 minutes. Stopping like 3-4 Baron waves. We start making a comeback

Went Soulstealer, sorcshoes, Athenes, Morellomicon, deathcap, void staff.. sell athenes for hourglass, have nearly 850 ap.

We're about to have all 3 inhibs respawn with their mid one down, when they dive at them doing baron without me and all die.... they push and we lose =(.

[Benmage]

Which BTW, is there a max cooldown reduction? at like 40%.. I think after getting morc/athenes.. the soulstear reduction didn't add anymore... and I know the blue didn't add either. Lowest my ult was at was at 30 seconds.

[quadz08]

There is max CDR.

[Benmage]

Gotya... here I thought morc+athenes was awesome.. but I guess its overkill.

[GreyICE]

CDR needs to be capped, it has strong positive feedback. Crit, AD, AS, AP, these all suffer from diminishing returns, CDR on spam champions has increasing returns (3rd 10% worth more than first). Spam casters would be... Bad.

[PJ.]

morc?

Also yeah, CDR caps at 40% so Athene's + Blue puts you at cap.

[Benmage]

morellomicon...

Is there a cap on attack speed? Or anything else really?

[mykonian]

2.5 for attackspeed, iirc. Movement speed is softcapped (at some point further speedbuffs net you less speed).
