This is neat, but I really hope this doesn't catch on and it should be a bannable offence imo. Calling it for what it is, griefing.

How do you figure?

I started in December 2010, when I first tried the game my friends recommended I try Warwick since I was looking for a melee fighter. I ended up completely avoiding him for so long cuz he seemed dopey until the point that when they did the full VGU, I figured I'd give it a shot. and of course now he's great.

Others I've managed to never, ever play are old Quinn (never got to be the bird), old irelia, old poppy, old Galio, etc.

I've been a fan of pretty much every VGU/rework tbh

I think what you said about speeding up of the clip for sake of saving people time is totally fair ~ never actually crossed my mind as a potential reason.

However the exaggerated slow mo aspect of it really does make me crease when it's the creator of the clip who is editing it to make his play more than it is. Idk, perhaps I'm being unreasonable, but when someone feels the need to make their own clip (in the context of lol) more "awesome," then it probably wasn't really - especially if the clip in question has nothing particularly impressive within it, that may have required slowing down to actually grasp what was going on (e.g a well executed shy combo, or another mechanically intensive play). We all saw Udyr sidestep Rakan W, incredible stuff.

Have you considered it might be more of a "oh my gosh I just barely got out" vibe as opposed to a "look at how sick I am" thing?

It gives off the impression of a "WoW LoOk At ME!1!" vibe. If the play is good, players will appreciate it. You gotta be really easily impressed if you see a slowmod clip in a vacuum and believe it looks incredible.

u/MartyMcNinja understands the perspective I'm viewing it from, even if he doesn't share it.

I think another reason I disagree tbh is just the fact that in order for the clip to work in context you have to see this whooooole long thing which makes perfect sense to speed up. And then when you're sped up, you miss those instant moments where he barely got out. So either the option is make it normal speed for just those moments, which might feel a bit jarring, or lean all the way into it and slow it down and hopefully get that funny / awesome moment. iMO that totally works.

???? The f**k is cringe about it?

What do you think cringe even means? That whole video flowed nicely. I didnt even notice the speed ups and slowdown till after the fact.

I think he means cringe as in "this guy thinks he's so cool that's why he slowed it down" but I agree with you it 100% helped the flow and those slowdown moments were more hilarious than any like "cringe" self aggrandizing "I'm so awesome" etc

TL;DR: I made a Google Spreadsheet that allows you to pick the characters you play, and generates tables that display how those champions synergize with different team composition types (and even suggests bans that are strong against those team compositions ranked in tier list order)!

Hey guys!
