About time! The amount of people intentionaly ruining ranked games while loudly announcing they are doing so and laughing in everyone faces is unbearable. Hope there will be swift further punishments for people who will just throw their anger in other queues in order for those not to become an absolute swamp. Perhaps acompany the ranked restriction with like 24 hours complete ban to let the child calm down and not immediately ruin a normal game?

Isn't that when people were complaining about bans being really sensitive all of a sudden? Or am I remembering wrong?

Yeah sure, the graph doesn't have its Y-axis labeled, but WOW! That line is going up very much!

Except their AI language bot is garbage and punishes people who aren't even toxic.

These are the types of players who will get locked out of Ranked:

Meanwhile actual inters and win traders will be completely unaffected.

Yeeaaaah. It just seems like they're sacrificing less toxic modes to make ranked a little less toxic.

Idk. I guess it means I just won't play aram or norms to chill, I'll just play a different game instead.

I know they said ranked brings out more toxic behavior but I’m still reallly worried about normal queues taking a hit. I still run into a lot of toxic players and Im concerned that forcing toxic players into norms just makes it worse and way less of a “chill games” queue

It really irks me. I understand that player behavior is really hard to address effectively, but these stats don’t really mean anything. I mean, an unlabeled graph is truly mind blowing with how misleading it could be.

no we fkn dont, wtf rose tinted nostalgia glasses crap is this

he hated us and we hated him

he took away the ban phase out of SPITE then bailed to TFT

he very clearly never played the game mode at all, and had the worst trash takes on everything

we are still suffering the results of his garbage decisionmaking

On Lucian it is as strong as Stormrazor if not slightly stronger.

On Jhin it is 1.5% above Stormrazor in the 1st slot and 1.5% above IE in the 2nd slot. So BiS.

Ashe BiS.

Aphelios, Kindred, Jinx and Cait as good as Stormrazor.

Yasuo/Yone, Nilah and Trynda already BiS.

So it is AT LEAST as good as Stormrazor actually if not better on live. You have it BiS on 4 melees and 2 ADCs and it will be BiS after Stormrazor is nerfed for at least 5 more.

And that is in gold+ and plat+. The item is an active item and actives tend to become better in higher elos and pro play. In Dia+ the item is BiS already for Aphelios and a few others.

With this nerf I am sure every crit ADC who doesn't want Navori will take Gale instead. Navori takes a totally different niche than IE and Gale, so it isn't battling these 2, which is why Xayah, Sivir and maybe 1-2 others still go Navori. But for everyone who might want to go IE, Gale alr...

What? It's not an AA to trigger the energize, but the AA that triggers the next Q to bounce incorrectly.

• First Q @ 19s (Bounces correctly to blue-side minions)
• Second Q @ 22s (Non-energized)
• Third Q @ 30s (Bounces correctly to blue-side minions)
• Fourth Q + First AA @ 32s (Non-energized)
• Fifth Q @ 42s (Bounces incorrectly to red-side minions)

Is that what you expect?

Anything about his Galeforce opinion? Because currently the balancing team seems to think Galeforce is fine (because the nerf is a super tiny dmg scaling nerf). With the Stormrazor nerf Galeforce will likely be the 1st item to rush.

u/PhreakRiot do you guys have an eye on Kai'sa? I really love what you did with the new Item Rework but Stormrazor this patch was the most efficient way to get her Q evolve. Even though personally I don't like that item on her because I beleive Kraken Slayer synergizes better with her kit. But in 13.11 even that won't be as easy anymore for a champion who really relies on getting her Q evolve as early as possible

/u/PhreakRiot In case this helps:

I just went back and reviewed the game where the bug happened. The events went like this:

• Renata R Hits majority of team, Ezreal dies while berserk.
• Upon Respawning, Ezreal runs to bottom lane and pokes at wave using Q (Mystic Shot).
• First Mystic Shot proc's Stattik shiv as normal
• Second Mystic Shot is non-energized
• Third Mystic Shot proc's Stattik Shiv as normal
• Ezreal auto attacks a minion
• Fourth Mystic Shot is non-energized
• Fifth Mystic Shot hits enemy minion, Stattik Shiv bounces to allied minions.

What is odd is that it seemed to be only after I auto-attacked that the bug occurred, and not before. This is not what I expected based on your comment:

Triggering Energized via a special case on something that isn't a basic attack (e.g. Ezreal Q) makes it jump to allies because it was set up to...

Haha looks like a fun thing. On the other Hand you don’t have many colleague that have the same job to help each others

I somehow never thought about how the camera work in live games works.

Well now I have so many questions... Is it a full time job? What do you do when there are no games? How did you become an official observer? Is there only one observer in a game? Or are there multiple observers and the director chooses which one to show?

Originally posted by OwEnrious

On another note is being observer for big events like casters cast for big event a milestone/achievement for you ?

I understands why zooming out and in is good, but what I wanted to point out with this image, is that in this case (and others like it), we see more than even where players might come from. A big fight is about to take place, and it wasn't until the replay that I could watch it without squinting. Please realize, this might be just a hot take from me, but people trying to watch on a laptop, or even on their phone, might just be left out.

This was just an extreme example that I noticed in this game. In places where the zoom out just barely clips players on the edges of the screen, I can see why it has to go out so much. But, here it felt more like... well, every player was accounted for at a zoom level much closer than what was used. I just don't want it to feel like the zoom is being used as a substitute for moving the camera to follow the action, which is how it felt here.

Thank you so much for the reply, and I hope I didn't come off as a bit too entitled.

also a lot of ADCs weren't going to kite at full attack speed,it's mechanically very hard to do at high numbers so they would "lose" atk speed

i think it's partially a matter of habit,changing the timing on kiting can make it feel clunky at first before you get used to it,but it also makes the role more accessible to players new to it i guess

Renata did get experience and gold from the minions that I killed. I also did take damage as seen in the video.

There are other moments in the replay that I managed to snap up on now. There is one moment right after one team fight in which renata also used ult. I hop into a minion wave and it managed to damage both me and my friends champion.

Figured I give more context.

Thanks for replying to the thread Phreak
