@nvxty20844 @shawn_odonaghue @RiotPhroxzon Otter, actually.

@Nethrez @shawn_odonaghue @RiotPhroxzon so tuff you even added the full stop wow you truly are someone to fear my twink

Patch 26.14 Preview! MSI is in full swing! Had some awesome games and we're pretty happy with the meta overall. There's decent representation across each class (assassins in jungle, a few LeBlanc picks). Nerfing down some of the strongest picks in bot lane have also led to mages bot being more present in the meta. We don't find this state particularly problematic right now, but we have had several conversations about the true power level of mages bots (especially when they carry high winrates). That said, there are a few that are over performing in soloq (seraphine) so she's receiving a nerf, but the overall conversation is a lot more nuanced (which pairings, familiarity as opponents, etc.) Locke - Locke has had a really resonant start - players have resonated with his executes, resets and stack into burst gameplay - he's shown to be a little skill skewed in the same way that a Katarina, akshan or other resetty, roamy champions might be, but not overly so - that said he's still a bit strong when account for mastery growth and true power level - his level of early game snowballing is a bit too high right now - that said, we think his damage is appropriate if he needs to work a little harder to access it. As a result we're nerfing his waveclear (currently) to hit his ability to access it so reliably - we know that one of the things that players find confronting is his damage output right now, but we think it's valuable to retain these types of unique edges in the game for champions Systems - Rocket belt has been one of the premier items for mages (especially immobile) at the highest level for several months now. - We like and embrace this type of innovation, but it's also providing a bit too much versatility and removing a core weakness of these champs (ability to be killed), so forcing a bit stronger of a tradeoff - The other major systems change for this patch is a nerf to the mid boots upgrade for gluttonous greaves - it's adding a nice texture for playing say, mid vs top riven, but it's also the strongest performing boot in that lane and lacks clear counterplay - again, the innovation here is great, but just a bit strong

@nvxty20844 @shawn_odonaghue @RiotPhroxzon Seethe more.

@Nethrez @shawn_odonaghue @RiotPhroxzon your flags speak for you

@guihc03_ @shawn_odonaghue @RiotPhroxzon I fully support that.

@Nethrez @shawn_odonaghue @RiotPhroxzon Then allow adcs, bruisers, tanks to be picked in mid, jungle, supp like they’re doing with mages, the only class you can play in each role

@Gh0styyy69 @shawn_odonaghue @RiotPhroxzon Please go on an explain why it's fine for top, mid, jungle and support to be played by multiple different classes, but bot should be reserved for only one. But use actual arguments instead of just crying.

@Nethrez @shawn_odonaghue @RiotPhroxzon Me when I'm retarded

@lolgwizzle @RiotPhroxzon God bless Israel for that

@RiotPhroxzon thank you from israel for no real mage bot nerfs

@shawn_odonaghue @RiotPhroxzon Why would we not be? It's good that botlane can be played by more than one class.

@RiotPhroxzon I don't understand why we're happy w/ mages being in bot lane

@SamTheLucioFan @ImBiActlly Yes, we are.

@ImBiActlly Are we sure?

Overwatch lore is so funny cuz wdym the cutest twink and the cunty CEO are sworn enemies

@carsonstrash Lmao, please tell me this tweet is satire 🤣

so weird that muscle gays literally exclusively hang out with/date other muscle gays

@Han31506417073 You are correct

This was made by a homosexual for homosexuals there’s no way a woman is into this

@danishlakeghat @BohuslavskaKate I feel like there's a difference between striking military factories and civilian apartments, don't you think?

@BohuslavskaKate Weren’t you celebrating Ukrainian strikes on Russian territories recently? What goes around comes around, Mr Kinzhal, Mr Iskander, Mr Oreshnik, and gang paying visit to Kyiv.

Russia struck an apartment building in Kyiv again‼️ It partially collapsed and people are blocked inside.

@Impurewingx_xx @PunishedEldric @xamfoam @Dexerto Nobody gives a fuck about mobile games; no matter how much you're gonna seethe about it 🤣 The West makes majority of real games. Now eat shit and fuck off.

@Nethrez @PunishedEldric @xamfoam @Dexerto Bitch I showed ur petty ass new proof that's more in line with our discussion & now you're mad? Sore loser ass attitude, grow up 😆 Also, you should've considered mobiles too since they're a huge part of the industry like it or not, quit trying to move the goal post.

Marvel Rivals has released a new Captain America swimsuit skin and fans are losing their minds over it It shows off his bulky arms, chest, and other large assets

@Impurewingx_xx @PunishedEldric @xamfoam @Dexerto I couldn't give less shit about revenue. The conversation was never about it. Retarded incels from Japan and China are just spending thousands on digital waifus, cause they will never touch a woman irl. Such "gaming" is worth as much as pile of shit.

@Nethrez @PunishedEldric @xamfoam @Dexerto And in case you try to be extra lame by trying to dismiss mobiles, see this friendly reminder 1st..

@Impurewingx_xx @PunishedEldric @xamfoam @Dexerto Nobody's talking about dogshit mobile games, so stfu retard.

@Nethrez @PunishedEldric @xamfoam @Dexerto Watch your ignorant mouth.

@Impurewingx_xx @PunishedEldric @xamfoam @Dexerto Are you dumb or something? You posted a breakdown of revenue, not amount of games released. West still makes majority of games.

@Nethrez @PunishedEldric @xamfoam @Dexerto I already went ahead to fact check myself just be 200% sure...and yeah, here's the breakdown.

@Impurewingx_xx @PunishedEldric @xamfoam @Dexerto Yes. And West makes majority of games, so it's not like a trend happening among them is completely irrelevant.

@Nethrez @PunishedEldric @xamfoam @Dexerto You mean WESTERN MADE games...or to be more specific, NA & CERTAIN EU associated games yes😅?? Like you just admitted: it's not the majority. So imo there's not much ground to bother bringing that up, when the rest of the gaming community still operate differently.

@Impurewingx_xx @PunishedEldric @xamfoam @Dexerto I mean, his claim aren't all bs. There have been bunch of games making female characters less attractive for no reason, but I wouldn't call it majority and Marvel Rivals definitely isn't one of them.

@Nethrez @PunishedEldric @xamfoam @Dexerto Having them do that won't matter much, bc their flawed claims will still be bs anyway. Like 1st off, what kind of source metric are they pulling from to even say that? Do they actually believe women & queer gamers don't exist? And how do the MANY other gaming genres factor in🤔

@PunishedEldric @xamfoam @Dexerto Your first comment was aimed at Marvel Rivals though. Maybe share your criticism under posts about games it actually applies to?

@Nethrez @xamfoam @Dexerto Nah, I don't. I'm not talking about this game specifically.

@PunishedEldric @xamfoam @Dexerto Do you even play the game? Marvel Rivals has waaaaaaaay more sexualised skins for female characters than male ones. It's not even close.

Vast majority of gamers and it isn't even close are straight men, though, so modern marketing atm just doesn't make any sense, but that's because it's become completely ideological and anti-consumer. I don't really give a fuck about them having sexualised male characters, either, that's always been in a thing as well in fighting games, but the constant censorship or masculinised female characters is retarded.

@rinalu_ Are you really flexing bombing a civilian building? Can orcs can get even more pathetic?

Kiev is burning again. While Western media stays silent, Russia just sent another message about what happens when you cross certain lines.
