My roommate struggled with that clickbait kind of thing for a long time. Eventually he gave in and started to participate because you just won't get the same kind of clicks. Yeah it's cringe if you're an adult, but these things aren't marketed to goons, who by and large are either older teenagers or people in their 20s/30s. It's so saturated that clickbaiting like that usually just means that the content creator knows how the game works.

Youtube's algorithms are some bizarre space alien poo poo that force content creators to appease them like you would a Lovecraftian god. This article on disturbing kids' videos on YouTube is a good read for how strange the whole landscape has become and how increasingly disconnected it is from its intended purpose.

Kokoro Wish posted:New Akali looks really fun: Really wish SRO went back to commentating games in high diamond and master and the like. Endlessly stomping a guy as nasus or whatever gets old when you realise he's playing in like silver 2 levelling his accounts and the guy he's playing against doesn't even know what the champ you're playing does.

Now if only people would turn on the super toxic Draven thumb guy and stop taking Hashinshin serious at all the world would be a better place

The Shortest Path posted:What did Trick2G do to ruin Udyr? He largely popularized the style of Udyr play where you do nothing but run around the map taking every single resource you can while trying your best to frustrate the enemy team. It's like a Singed that can actually stand and fight people. It's entertaining for spectators to watch, especially when combined with Trick's personality, but it's loving miserable to play with due to him soaking up everything and making ridiculously ill-advised showboating plays that could cost his team the game.

As an Udyr player, y'all salty. Objectives are important, and watching two people trip over themselves to chase you down and fail is hilarious

Feeble propaganda. Nobody denies that the strat is ineffective; the problem is that the playstyle attracts players who don’t want to play league as a pvp game and stereotypically those players espouse more vile poo poo, especially after watching the lord godyr do it

TVsVeryOwn posted:Who should I watch if I want to be a better support? Aphromoo's pretty good and streams a decent amount. Unfortunately, there's not a lot who actually stream that much. If you've got specific questions/concerns, I think like 9/10ths of this thread is support mains, so we could probably help you out. What I usually do, especially if I'm trying to learn about a new pick, is go to Probuilds and search for games by top-end Korean supports, then go to their op.gg's. They usually have replays recorded that you can download and watch in the League client. Not quite as good as someone telling you what they're doing and why, but it can give you a good idea about what to build, how to play the lane out, and what to do post-laning phase.

The Shortest Path posted:What did Trick2G do to ruin Udyr? here is the thing: trick2g, at prime, loving sucked. my experience with him was awful, and the few times out of morbid curiosity i watched his stream it was also awful. if trick2g, at prime, is bad at league of legends... and his playstyle at a mid platinum level gets copied by low silver players ..? there are much better ways to play udyr, and the way he plays udyr not only tilts your team but is also not the most effective way to carry a game so there is no reason to play it. trick2g still plays this way since it used to be good and he basically branded himself with that "my way" thing forcing him into a box as the udyr who ignores his team and does objectives then runs away E: remember when trick2g posted that boots first nunu build. i choose to remember that trick2g instead of his loud moronic rear end vaping into his webcam and screaming stuff in a high pitched voice that is clipping the audio pog boyfriend fucked around with this message at 04:11 on Jul 21, 2018 |

TVsVeryOwn posted:Who should I watch if I want to be a better support? MeNoHaxor is probably the best, but doesn't post that often. Lohpally is also solid, although saltier and his unranked to challenger series is less good. His landing guides are solid. Aphromoo is good as well, but less focused on teaching you how to support v entertaining. He is really, really good though.

I've been watching SRO's videos a bit since he was posted in this thread a few times, and even though he's just beating up Gold/Plat players as a Diamond/Challenger level player in most of them he still goes through and explains why and how he's able to do so which I find helpful - especially as a support/bot player that doesn't have much experience on either side of playing as/against top lane champs and knowing how to outplay some of them when the tele in at 10min is a good thing to know.

It's why I'm annoyed the youtube account that was streaming scarras twitch stream as self contained youtubes stopped (due to legal action by whoever was managing scarra at the time, gently caress knows), because he played his best every game and always said what he was doing and why, which made it informative and entertaining without it being "WOAH WATCH ME GO 12/0 AGAINST THIS BRONZE 4 PLAYER AS AKALI!!!"

This is why I watch SRO personally. I know he’s not that amazing, he’s not playing at his level. But when he does that, he can’t really spare the concentration to explain things, so I don’t blame him. Who else should I watch for top tips? Also jungle, I’ve recebtly been getting into that a bit and it is confusing.

Soraka has to be the most frightening enemy support, because 9 times out of 10 your adc will never deviate from their item build path to fit in a executioners for 800g. Enemy team consists of soraka, mundo, swain, trundle and a draven stacking lifesteal items? you better bet nobody on your team will build a executioners or morello before 30 minutes.
