Oh god I'm an idiot I used the Search on Google function for the deck code because I wasn't thinking.

Anyways I'm only 30 coins away and I can get 16 more from the last 2 quests so I guess I can finish the battle pass after all.

"Deal damage to units (0/500)"
I wonder if overdamaging units counts?

Awesome!

All-In Fiora is the stupidest gimmicky deck that for some reason against all odds works more often than you would think.

Meanwhile I made a Shen/Fiora deck and I feel dirty because it's actually really fun to play on top of being very effective. It's me I'm the monster. :gonk:

3/3 for 3 Challenger that can turn into a 4/4 is really, really good even if you don't factor in the alternate win condition.

Swim had a riot dude onto his stream to talk about the game. I only listened to a little of it but the part that concerns me is they're apparently going to be making a lot more "backline champions" (TF, Aphelios, Kindred, etc). I think this is basically a mistake and a lot of the core rules of the game like terrible removal don't work when it comes to engines. But we'll see. Balance changes in 3 days allegedly so we'll see what direction they'll go.

Wanna smugly spam Braum because your cheesy Shurima deck's sun disc thing happened? Congrats, i'm gonna go do something else, if winning makes your dick that hard then you won't mind waiting for it.

I'm convinced LoL's player base made their way here, if nearly every one of them I face are arrogant sacks of poo poo.

I only use emotes when I make dumb mistakes.
*attacks with 1/1 zoe into 2/1 sprayfin on t8 due to calculating blockers a ton of times and completely forgetting my opponent had an elusive*
*presses heimerdinger calculating emote after my zoe dies :( *

Thankfully, I was playing zoe+aph+asol & the deck can't actually lose. It also helped that I just used zoe to activate temple and had no actual zoe plan that game either. It did suck to not get the card I expected to get after the attack.

Another dumb mistake recently:

*gets my 2/4 challenger hit with -4 attack debuff*
*casts sharpsight on my 0/4 challenger that is now being vulnerabullied*
*now has 0/6 challenger*

If it goes to -2 it should show -2 and not 0. Also, this won me the game because that unit didn't die, he tried to use removal, I healed it, veiled temple buffed it, and it took over the board. I don't think I would have made that play had I known I wouldn't get the attack buff.

This game is extremely hard to play optimally even when you don't make new-player level mistakes.

I'm sorry to tell you but somebody rope burning and somebody emote spamming aren't the same thing, and one of them is a reaction and consequence to the other, so.

I didn't think i'd have to mute anybody but this wouldn't be the first time I've been burned for expecting better from people. Having to assume that everybody's a piece of garbage feels pretty lousy.

Someone spammed emotes at me earlier when they invoked and I was sitting there thinking "what the hell cold be so excited about, I don't think there's any game changing invoke from a 4,5,6 with this board state and no one gets that hype about sisters vs a deck that's slower than theirs & not trying to reduce nexus health - obliterating veiled temple would be a waste of 6 mana at this point". I sat there worried that there was some series of event I didn't expect about to give me a big L. It turned out they got the 5/5 challenger which didn't work out quite like he had hoped & also got a sad poro.

Emotes are actually cool because it's the only way people can interact with you.

Rope burning is wasting everyone's time. Emote spamming is putting little images the developers put into the game in a corner where nothing game related goes.

Braum is for greeting your opponent at the start of the game.

Heimer is for when you can't decide on a move or your opponent is making a play you don't understand.

Shen is for when you're about to launch a huge attack.

Poro is for when something bad happens to you.

Jinx is for when your opponent does something big and unexpected and you just can't. You just can't even.

Emotes CAN be cool, if the person using them is cool. And come on let's not pretend that emote spamming has no reason behind it, you do it when you want to be an rear end in a top hat.

This is exactly what I thought, save for Shen, which I like to use if the match was good regardless of who wins. If you're facing an rear end in a top hat however, Braum is used if they know they're about to win like some kind of 'you lose bye' and poro is to make fun of somebody who's about to lose.

What are we even labeling as emote spam? If you mean someone is delaying playing the game to make you sit there and watch them spam emotes, well then they are basically rope burning you to begin with and I misunderstood what you are saying. If someone spams emotes every time they are clowning on you, but it doesn't affect the length of the game, then you are absolutely a baby for rope burning instead of just muting them.

You’ve got a weird hard-on for wasted time being the one true evil. If someone chooses to deliberately annoy me, it is in no way worse for me to annoy them back. If wasted time is what annoys emote spammers, sounds like a great target.

emotes are fine. sometimes people are dicks about it so you thrash em. if you do em and they thrash you, you get it back. if you don't like the back and forth then mute em on the onset, idk

Imagine thinking I give that much of a poo poo if i'm willing to do it in the first place. Imagine thinking another sixty seconds is that much time to waste. It doesn't bother me, but it might bother the other BMing rear end in a top hat. Either way if you want to be a prick, I feel like there should be a price. You won't get to do it for free.
