Kojima producing Riot's fighting game would certainly be something.

Speaking of this game is the one where I crave details I was thinking they'd probably have something at Evo this year, but I wonder how that would work with the new online only Evo. Would be a good time to show how good their rollback netcode is (though I'm sure they're not even close to that stage yet)

Their netcode is presumably based on GGPO so is probably very good.
|
# ? May 21, 2020 14:15 |
Yeah if nothing else the Riot Fighter should have good netcode cause it has the two guys who literally built the Gold Standard of netcode calling the shots.

Pretty sure I read that was the whole point of buying them.

Well yeah I'm sure the netcode will be good considering the people working on it, I more meant I'm not sure they're at the point where they're going to be playing live matches yet I'm holding out hope for some sort of closed beta announcement this year though!

It would be such a crazy huge coup if Riot was able to get together a demonstration for their game during an all-online Evo

But yeah it's extremely unlikely. It would be pretty amazing though

Are there stats somewhere that show the the percentage of wins for teams that take the first dragon?

Note that it's probably not the fact that first dragon itself is that important, but rather that the team with the stronger early game control has a much higher chance of winning as a consequence of that.

As of right now, AP (The Hose, the ghost item, deathcap) Dark Harvest (Cheap Shot, Ghost Poro, Ingenious Hunter) Nami is the new hotness.

The Shortest Path posted:I have no idea what like half of this means, could you please explain buying pure ability power on Nami instead of her normal +healing support items, Specifically spellthiefs edge and it's upgrades followed by the item that spawns two spooky ghosts that seek out and slow your enemies and then Rabaddons deathcap, while using the Dark Harvest keystone with the runes cheap shot, ghost poro, and ingenious hunter is an extremely powerful build on Nami. This has always kind of been true - it only really works when adc's are glorified minions and supp-tanks are tissue paper so Nami can get the gold she needs to deal real damage, otherwise she and her laner get stomped into the ground repeatedly for laning phase.

On a related note: Had someone in my aram complaining that he was a "top 1% aram player and deserved better teammates", silver lining was I found out I'm in an even more illustrious group. If only I applied any of this climbing dedication to ranked (slash was actually good enough to climb that high). It is fun to occasionally run into pros in ARAM and pretend like beating IMT academy players or whatever way off role means anything re: my level of play.

That would be my guess, they try to section off bots into their own matches/non SR-queues.

gvibes posted:Kind of surprised at xin and sett, rest is perfect. Sett's probably a combination of newness and him having some truly horrendous matchups that feel miserable to play out, and Xin is an early game aggro jungler that turns into a pumpkin if he even mildly mismanages his pathing or ganks. In general, any strong duelist is a giant magnet for shitheads.

I do not like what they have done with Volibear, obviously I am quite bad at this game but he seems not very fun or good and not much like the old Volibear. Seems a lot like the Aatrox rework to me, where I actually sorta liked the old champ despite the masses apparently not and the rework just does nothing for me. I can't see the Volibear rework being repeatedly nerfed like Aatrox was though.

Aatrox at least has some imaginable best case scenario where you play a fight perfectly and chain-knock people up for infinite damage. I’m not sure what Volibear is intended to do other than stand there and W people in long fights. What’s his ideal scenario? What’s the best possible volibear setup? A tower dive I guess?

i really like his pace in the jungle. good aoe and single target. sustain and a shield. you can go into dragon really early and its a decent mix of speed and safety. its not that fast but you dont lose much hp. in fights he can keep the W on an immobile melee champ and have very good effective hp. im liking triforce and titanic on him, if you dont have damage they will focus you last because your not dangerous enough. its fun trying to figure out if hes good or not

He feels too slow to me. Not just movespeed (though he could definitely use a bit more speed at least in his early ranks of Q) but in his abilities. His passive takes too long to reach his full stacks, his W takes 5 seconds for the second proc and his E charge time is too long for its size. I’m note sure how he’s supposed to trade in top lane with bruisers, he doesn’t have reliable ranged farming options like other tanks and his sustain requires you to engage in combat for 5 seconds. Any other champion in lane is going to get their full combo out and either all in or disengage by the time Voli stacks up.

yes i noticed the sluggishness on his moves. animations on all of his moves feel kinda slow to use

You’re all playing holiness wrong. You should be going AP with nashors tooth, rage blade and gun blade. Then you leap on people and hit them with your ludicrous ratios before the ADC shoots you four times and you die.

I'm still always blown away by how he can play at the level he does almost exclusively with Normal casting, although top players having weird setups isn't anything new. Faker plays with mouse acceleration and an insanely high DPI, while the LPL's Knight plays like this:
