@tollyhoy @ralph_gordgory @D3rpsgamer @FlawedLoL The thing is adc gets free gold and top gets free exp, they are going to be 2 levels above you/ 1 item above you ALWAYS even if you don't get ultra late game to get to lvl 20 or 6 item, that's just the cherry on top

@ralph_gordgory @D3rpsgamer @FlawedLoL extra item is conditional on the game running long, this will kick in as soon as quest is completed

This is almost 3 infernal dragons btw

@FlawedLoL Useless and biased comparison, you don't compare it to neutral stuff like dragons, you compare it to what other roles have, and mid quest is not even close in terms of power

@buela78923795 @kevztus How is it cope lmao. They tell you to do that so even if you have bad fat distribution you can still have a defined face

@kevztus If real Extremely good fat distribution, that’s why the whole “getting to 12% body fat as a man is essential” is a complete cope. If you have good bone structure and have good fat distribution you can be higher fat percentage and still looks facially good as a man.

how does he not have more face fat??

@MAMB5U563 @AncestralHealtz I have yet to see a ugly person that is also lean, no face bloat, no acne and with nice haircut/fashion. Black pillers will always compare average people with models or actors who spend insane amount of time and money on their looks and call it genetics

@JasonValZz @AncestralHealtz i hate normies

The scariest part about puberty isn't going through it. It's realizing that you left your potential on the table. Because nobody told you what your body actually needed while it was still building itself.

@MAMB5U563 @AncestralHealtz Yeah I wonder why the famous sibling who's image is their entire livelihood looks better. Almost like with very similar genetics the one who puts more effort into looking good actually looks good, crazy to believe right?

@JasonValZz @oyeomchan @AncestralHealtz greycel this a twitter comment and i cant present all the data evidence and stuff rn, but look at literaly any handsome celbrity, margot robbie, henry cavil, brad pitt. same genes their siblins are substantially more ugly or shorter than them. diet is n2 right after orthodontics

@lennartprimal Can you show me a guy that DOESN'T take care of the way he looks and is still attractive? Cuz I guarantee you you won't be able to

A haircut, cold showers and some good clothes will ascend him

@feelpsychosis Has any of you blackpill copers ever used a good looking guy example that is not a model/actor who's entire livelihood depends on how he looks? Cuz what you're just confirming is that if you put effort you will look good, and there's no genetics that will save you if you don't

Why do looksmaxxing when you can just > take a cold shower > get a haircut > dress nice It works for me !

@feelpsychosis Not in terms of muscle shape and insertions for sure. But in terms of size you definitely can

“Yea so I’m gonna do PPL and progressively overload.. I should look like this in a year or two”

@MAMB5U563 @oyeomchan @AncestralHealtz I know that there's more factors and I also do believe that you can grow more or be "more attractive" under optimal growing conditions but that it's nowhere near to the extent people believe, also mostly because when lean and well taken care of basically everyone is attractive

@JasonValZz @oyeomchan @AncestralHealtz by how much, and your brother may not have sleept as well, may have been exposed to lots of bpa, maybe didnt excerse, was fat, stressed. so so many factors here. did he see the sun also what specifcialy did he eat and how much of each thing, u also 100% did not soley eat junk

@MAMB5U563 @oyeomchan @AncestralHealtz Dies is cope. My brother grew up with meat, eggs, fruits and vegetables, raw milk and cheese. I grew up with candy, hot dogs and fries cuz I was a picky eater. I'm taller than him

@oyeomchan @AncestralHealtz liessszzzz

@GriffinHQ_ @Beekobzz It won't be picked every game because it doesn't have durability but it's the item that will give you the most dmg by far

@Beekobzz In a realistic game its terrible on him

This item is literally the biggest IQ check of all time anyone that thinks this item will break the game or is super op and every champ should build it doesnt know how items work. i might be missing a champion but really the only champions that can realistically make this item work are kaisa and katarina. The reason for kaisa is she uses all the stats well and is the best user of the statik passive. even then it most likely wont be game breaking as this is still lower damage for her than other first items. Katarina on the other hand could be pretty strong with this item but it only really starts to come into effect when kat starts adding other items into her build. so she will be building a weaker first item for the chance to have a good ultimate later in the game, which still will just be stopped as it is in any other game and if it isnt its not the statik shiv thats killing you. Even still one or two champs being strong with an item doesnt mean its game breaking as it can be fine tuned. The passive isnt so drastically broken that it would be worth for any other champ to build into a WORSE item just for a passive that can proc their on hits. League doesnt work like practice tool. you are not gonna have perfect scenario where 4 people line up next to each other with your heartsteel procced (very short range) so you can get it with one shiv proc. even if thats the case you would be building into a terrible item for your champion just for the chance of that occuring. There were items that were gonna be so insanely op and break the game this season during practice tool tests last season yet there wasnt any one item that completely broke the game. the closest thing was dusk and dawn and while it was strong it never completely broke the game and was only strong on a couple champs and was quickly fixed.

@TheYuriWoods @PathOfMen_ Bone structure it's not a skill but "being attractive" is. I see so many overweight, bloated guys with terrible grooming telling you it's all genetics and "it's over" when they don't even know what their genetics looks like cuz they don't put effort

Selling bone structure as a 'skill' is the peak of modern grift. ​Craniofacial development is biology, not a posture hack you can solve with a YouTube tutorial. They manufacture an insecurity, label it a 'lack of effort,' and then sell the cure to the very people they just made feel broken. ​It’s a loop designed to keep young men obsessed with the mirror instead of building real-world competence 🚬

@maloy123082 @SamaHoole It Is not possible. These guys telling you they have very short gym sessions skip most of the muscles because they get trained "during other exercises" (which is not true). I guarantee you he doesn't train forearms, abs, adductors, abductors,calves and erectors just to name a few

@SamaHoole Would love to know how. I do 6 exercises for legs alone twice per week. I love compound but certain things like calves, adductors and abductors like their own focus. Also abs get love each and every session. I’m happy with my results but would love to be less exhausted.

What you think a hypertrophy session looks like: Two hours. Three exercises per muscle. Drop sets, supersets, finishers. Sweating through the shirt. Crawling out of the gym. Meal prep for ten meals waiting at home. What a hypertrophy session actually looks like: 45 minutes. Five exercises. Two heavy working sets each. Fully rested between. Walking out feeling like you could do it again. Eating a steak. One produces Instagram content. The other produces muscle. Pick your output.

@UbermenschMind Best advertising for microplastics I guess

- Microplastic everywhere - Hormones in tap water - Seed oils - Processed food - Lack of physical exercise/work - Using toxic sunscreen - Staying inside all day

@TateTheTalisman @TrevorSheatz What you are describing is textbook hedonistic treadmill. You'll never have enough points of reference. There will always be something new and better and you will always end up "settling for less" if you have this mindset once you stop. So 1 point or 100, what's the difference?

You know when you've never driven a car before and then you scrape money together for an old shitty vehicle but you think it's in pretty good condition because you have never driven another car? I remember that feeling. Mine was a VW golf and the engine didn't even fire from one of the cylinders. The salesman told me it had been reworked and was as good as new. I didn't know it wasn't, I had no point of reference. Now this isn't about the physical "driving" sensation, that was enjoyable enough despite the wear and tear. But the reliability and soul of the vehicle was expended, it went through numerous breakdowns. One day you will think back on this analogy. None the less I wish you both well.

My wife was formerly promiscuous. I was a virgin. She was then radically born-again. Committed to church, evangelized constantly, Puritan books in her bedroom, prayer journals, grief over past sexual sin, etc. We got to know each other well for over a year, dated for four months, engaged for two and a half, and didn't sin sexually with one another. Our first kiss with each other was at the altar on our wedding day (reaction pic attached!). We've been married for over five years now, and she's been the most wonderful and godly wife, mother to our three children, and homemaker you could imagine. She's more pure than most virgins, as biblical purity has less to with past sins (though they certainly matter) and more to do with one's current posture of the heart and daily decisions to honor the Lord (Matt. 5:8). We're far too quick to forget the story of the woman labeled as a known "sinner" (likely a prostitute) in Luke 7:36-50 who was washing Jesus' feet with her tears while kissing them too. The Pharisees were shocked that Jesus let a public sinner do this. Jesus responded with a parable about debts being forgiven and ended with this powerful conclusion: "Her many sins have been forgiven; that’s why she loved much. But the one who is forgiven little, loves little" (Luke 7:47). Everyone seems to highlight the benefits of virginity, and it certainly is a blessing. But we forget to highlight the benefits of being forgiven much as well. My wife knows the depths of Jesus' forgiveness more than most people, enabling her to more easily live out a life of passionate love for her Savior. A woman or man's past sexual sin matters. But what matters far more when it comes to deciding who to marry is if the person is truly born again, if their repentance is real, if they truly have a heart for Christ, if they truly follow Jesus and obey his commands. "God has chosen what is foolish in the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen what is weak in the world to shame the strong. God has chosen what is insignificant and despised in the world ​— ​what is viewed as nothing ​— ​to bring to nothing what is viewed as something, so that no one may boast in his presence. It is from him that you are in Christ Jesus, who became wisdom from God for us ​— ​our righteousness, sanctification, and redemption, — in order that, as it is written: 'Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.'" (1 Cor. 1:27-31) "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, and see, the new has come!" (2 Cor. 5:17)

@gregogallagher They're not lazy, they just don't want to put the effort in a correct way, which ironically would make everything easier. It's like trying to do a leg press with your hands and saying "but I'm putting so much effort, why am I failing" yeah no shit

It seems no one really understands how many people desperately want to be leaner, more fit. Hit the gym 3-4x per week. Watch their calories, consume optimal protein. And apply so much genuine effort. But still struggle not going over their calories. Calling these people lazy is wild.

@fruitsnacks42 Because excess fat is always bad. And no, "excess" doesn't mean morbidly obese. 90%+ people have excess fat

not a single fat person

@ElRoccoLx @Spideraxe30 AD voli has actually been better for quite some time, top at least. He does more burst, more dps and tankier, and more split pushing power. He just has slightly worse waveclear, people just refuse to play him for some reason

@Spideraxe30 Maybe one day riot will realise buffing AD voli doens't do nothing cuz you never build ad on him anyway. AP/ tank will forever be better

Most of the stuff in today's PBE matches Phroxzon's list, so here are the Volibear buffs: - Q AD ratio increased from 140% to 160% - Empowered W AD ratio increased from 15% per 100 bonus AD to 25% - W mana cost reduced from 30 - 50 to 20 - 40 - E mana cost reduced from 60 to 50

@SloppyWalrusX @RiotPhroxzon Sure, when phase rush is removed you can give gragas any buffs you want

Can we buff Gragas? His Q shouldn't cost 80 mana lvl 1. If any Rioter wants to have a chat with me about potential Gragas changes I'm down. I'm also aware that he's a nightmare to balance because of his E flash kill confirm combos. But I think he deserves a little bit of love, his early game is just disproportionately bad especially if you're forced to use mana to farm early (vs good players) I never ask for buffs in public spaces like these because I think it's kinda cringe but I'm lowkey getting desperate🥀

Patch 26.5 Preview! Ranked EUW Test - We ended up getting delayed and the new plan is to deploy around 6pm PST tomorrow (roughly 2-3AM EUW) - There will be about 5-10m of Ranked downtime, so we're doing this in off peak and monitoring that things are working correctly First Stand on 26.5 - We made a significant number of changes on 26.4 and so 26.5 is a more conservative set of changes to ensure a good Pro meta for First Stand - Ori, Azir, Neeko, Lethality Varus are some of the strongest outliers in Pro Play currently, and so we're tapping them down Items - Hubris is looking just generally underpowered - It doesn't really have an audience and also doesn't exhibit the same properties that other snowball items like Mejais have (higher winrates because being purchased when snowballing) - Bandlepipes is looking pretty strong, especially on second item. Locket is one of its primary competitors so we're giving it a buff on second item by flatting some of the shield value Patch Followups - Lillia is looking a bit worse for wear after her buffs in a previous patch were over magnitude, so we're giving her a bump back up (it may end up getting delayed to a future patch if we need more time to land on a higher quality changelist, but haven't decided) - We're looking to see what Mel looks like at a higher power level after making some of the frustration lowering changes in 26.3

@MoleculeLOL Bork always has been and still is the better item especially if you build runaan. Kraken it's a bit better in a pure 1v1 against a squishy target but Bork it's better in literally every other scenario

Is fieldhunter the only reason we stopped buying bork completely on Yunara? Sure AS is nice to quickly proc kraken but they will also be high HP (since start of fight) so your kraken dmg isn't even that insane. Was there some bug fix or small change I missed
