I'm genuinely sure its just for the meme of playing it, there is zero theorycrafting on it being good.

It was even only really suggested as a counter to kalista, which they had already...

Nasus support is good against an enemy team relying on AS and MS and own team with a lot of AD champs. But since RGE hat 2 Ap and 2tanks and with Kalista as the only AD champ, it was the wrong time to pick Nasus supp.

i just dont know what nasus was doing in this composition lol

how many weeks am i going to endure heimer or nasus support in solo queue now

it's been 5 (?) years and i still see MF support T_T

Mazrim_reddit

heimer support is actually good, nasus support is greifing.

Difference between heimer closing in on 54% win rate support and nasus mostly landing on 40-41%

im sure rogue know something i dont but i just dont know what nasus was doing in this composition lol

Reduce MF E AP ratio, problem solved. Make it like -20%

It's uncounterable damage with Laundry burn, such a bullshit build.

the joke is that MF support was picked as a specific counterpick to Zyra support a few years ago in SKT vs ROX and we've seen it be picked in solo queue ever since then, including times when it simply wasn't good, because it was seen in pro play

EDIT: also SKT vs ROX is still one of the best series ever, you should watch it if you haven't

That's pretty cool, does Riot have any security positions open right now? I also work in security so I'm curious what they have.

Yes. https://www.riotgames.com/en/work-with-us

Us visa is just ultra elitist. If you never go abroad before, auto reject. You don’t seem rich, reject. Your distant relatives got rejected before, reject. They don’t like how you look, reject. They aren’t feeling well that day, reject.

Posting here as person, not as Riot employee - I don't do anything in esports so I have no power to effect change here:

I recently got my US work visa. I originally was approved by the USCIS in December for work, 2 weeks after applying, but it took 2 months to get a visa interview and another 6 months after that to go through the hoops.

It's very difficult to get a US visa even if you tick all the requirements, like I did.

For temporary student or work visas, it's even harder, because they are non-immigrant single intent visas; you have to prove you have the funds to support yourself in the US and prove that you intend to return home, which can be quite difficult and is objectively subjective.

Plenty of countries need immigration reform but it's next to impossible to enter the US for work these days, even if you don't want to immigrate, even with good immigration lawyers

Close but assist timers were just as easy to do manual as a hit effect, and damage was more useful to trigger things such as turret aggro which those spells then did.

But that didn't need 1 true damage, these terrain-creating spells were instead made to deal 0 true damage proc. Because of that, the damage proc was never visible in text (only >0 damage is displayed) and thus obscure and unknown by most players.

What was visible and actual true damage were some counters like Fizz R and Zilean Q for a while, even though Sion W already did the same thing without damage many releases prior. Heh.

welp I guess I fell prey to community rumours T_T

Way back when, many abilities which did no damage immediately would do 1 true damage so someone could be probably accredited with an assist if the target died after being hit by it.

For example, Trundle and Anivia pillar, and I think Zilean Q (during the countdown) as well.

what is dylan feeding these folks, they seem unstoppable

Orianna. It's my most played champion by far, and favourite champion of all time.

That seems super unlikely considering the 600+ spells possible.

I got Stand Aside and Knuckle down 3 and 2 times respectively in 40 guesses

I have spent way too much time playing this game. The only ones I got wrong were ones that were renamed (Tormented Soil -> Tormented Shadow)

This is a really fun game OP, good job

Hey this is off topic from the thread, but I just wanted to say I am VERY glad that League is maintaining unique Summoner Names vs. integrating a Riot Account Name. I think you lose a lot of "culture" and history without Summoner Names.

Thank you /u/Riotdanhonks

Just being transparent here - I don't know if we are, or are not, doing that, and I wouldn't be the person to thank either way. My scope here is simply to delete old inactive personal information.

Korea does it to a extent, doesn't they?
I feel this would solve a lot of problems in Brazil, north america and EU, at least.

Korea requires it by law, which is why it is done; I'm not personally convinced it's a good thing on the whole but we need to do it to comply with local legislation
