Serinus, in Dash's Reaction to LCS in 2024 - Refuses to host Saudi event

Travis Gafford also won’t be covering the event. I do understand some people may not have a choice.

kittenzrulz123, in Riot devs say playerbase is getting older, with fewer newbies jumping in - PCGamer

Y’all are wildly known for being toxic basement dwelling incels who have an extreme fear of touching grass.

Lemminary,

Umm, you sound just as toxic as the very people you criticize.

kittenzrulz123,

I didn’t say I agree with it but having that stereotype about your community obviously isn’t going to attract people.

They need more introductory tools/mini games that teach you the basics.

They also need regular events that bring new players in at the same time. They’ll have a better time when they’re matched against each other. You can’t really guarantee this, but giving people maybe 1-3 “new player week” per year would raise the probability.

It’s a shame they don’t have time to do this before Arcane season 2. It’s a shame they didn’t do this years ago.

Any game has churn. If you’re not bringing in new players, then you’re dying.

EVE Online from 2000-2014 is the gold standard of longevity. (After that they fired their economist and ruined the economy.)

WanderingVentra,

Agreed. Arcane was the perfect opportunity to bring in a bunch of new players, but they should’ve supported it with new player experiences and tools.

I mean, it doesn’t help that league also has a reputation for being super toxic. I only follow league in any capacity cause a close friend loves watching the LCS but it seems like a cool game, I just don’t really wanna get into something that would consume all my time and expose me to shitty people CONSTANTLY :.

ieatpillowtags,

And it’s such a hard commit too. If you get stuck with a bad group, that’s maybe 40 minutes of negative experience.

Lemminary,

consume all my time and expose me to shitty people CONSTANTLY

Sounds like any competitive game and social media out there, including this one. lol

Idk I guess thats fair, the only competitive online game I play is splatoon which has it’s issues (recently a huge scandal in the pro scene) but is way better than just about any other online competitive game.

My experiences with actually interacting with people on lemmy or mastodon have been pretty lovely though 🤷🏻

As an LCS viewer this was interesting to watch. Sounds like he had a really positive impact on the LEC. I hope he finds what he’s looking for going forward

Thanks for sharing :)

Serinus, in Best of 3's, Losers Bracket Gauntlet, new NACL Partners & more | LCS Summer Primer

If there’s an LCS watch party around me I’ll certainly try to go.

WanderingVentra,

Same! So many great things in this video. Not sure which change I’m most excited about, but none of them made me unhappy.

Cris_Color, in Open Source League of Legends remake in the works!

Well thats neat, thanks for sharing!

WanderingVentra, in Patch 14.11 Notes

My signal is terrible at work, so the site isn’t loading, but are there any K’Sante nerfs? He’s fun, but damn has he seemed overwhelming at MSI. It’s too much, man lol.

I’ve also had a friend tell me big changes were coming down in league. Is this the patch with those?

Serinus, in Hall of Legends: Faker Trailer

Something, something $600 Faker skin. I don’t follow exactly what the deal is.

But I have better things to protest over, and a cosmetic only skin ain’t it. I can just… not buy it.

If I’m going to be mad about something, it’s going to be something worth being mad over. For instance, the Blitzchung incident that made me quit classic WoW just before hitting level cap.

Serinus, in Team Liquid - T1 Post-Match discussion - MSI 2024 Losers Bracket

In the future, can you keep it to one post per match? In the future, you can potentially post “Game 1” “Game 2” comments under that, but it certainly doesn’t seem necessary for now. People can just specify if they’re commenting about individual games.

nicolairathjen,

I definitely can. Thought since it’s one of two international event I would give people the opportunity to discuss the individual games, but I can see how it’s very close to the only activity in the community. For me personally I was trying to find some discourse about the games while they were happening that didn’t require me to open Reddit, but alas I failed.

Serinus,

Yeah, if you keep it up, it’ll happen someday. I should have checked, because I would have been here. Partly I avoided it because I didn’t want spoilers and wasn’t watching live. Partly I just expected to be shouting into the void.

But we’ve gotta start somewhere, right?

What region do you follow? I made a little app for posting to this community, with source on GitHub. Pretty easy to adapt to the region of your choosing. I’ll likely stick to LCS posting myself.

nicolairathjen,

I follow mostly EU, but honestly I just watch whenever a game is on. And the tool looks great, I’ll try it out next time I post.

Serinus, in Team Liquid - T1 Post-Match discussion - MSI 2024 Losers Bracket

TL looked better than I expected throughout the series.

Omgarm, in Patch 14.10 Notes

Double AP burn items is fun on anyone with DoT :) burn burn burn!

nicolairathjen, in Team Liquid - T1 Post-Match discussion - MSI 2024 Losers Bracket

TL put up a fight, but in the end we get G2 vs T1 rematch

nicolairathjen, in Patch 14.10 Notes

I can’t believe they buffed K’Sante.
