Support NeoGAF

[manfestival]

Idk neogaf seems to have a pretty heavy bias towards dota 2. You may be right though, and there is only one way to find out if we could do it.

there unfortunately is a heavy bias towards dota 2. I mean I play it but its pretty obvious

 

[KarneeKarnay]

We're so few on EUW gaf that I won't get my hopes up. Inhouse games are fun though.

EUGaf would likely have to get on NA smurfs.

And yes, I understand that GAF does have way more DOTA 2 players.

I could just imagine the summons/ghost caster duo :lol.

 

[Stone Ocean]

Isn't Dota also a single client for all regions? That probably also helps setting up GAF matches.

LolGAF is spread all over ze world

 

[MrCookiepants]

Why is it that whenever there's a Blitzcrank on the enemy team he's a god, but whenever he's on my team they're terrible?

Like, the only hook he lands is on a guy that has a Zilean bomb on their head, conveniently delivering it into the middle of our team.

Speaking of Zilean bombs, Riot seems to have WAY over tuned that ability. 300 damage with 90% ap scaling for an AoE spell? Dafuq.

It's his only damage spell, the set timer makes the AoE against champions meaningless and the skillshot rework made it hard-ish to land.

It used to be ridiculous but now it's whatever

I'm just going to leave this here for League GAF. There's an overflow of keys in the world now so just take it if you want it:

Heroes of the Storm closed beta keys for the NA region. 4 of them, have at it. Quote to see

There are apparently more people on EUW than those I know of. I added you to my friendlist, my name in league is Euler.

EUGaf would likely have to get on NA smurfs.

Yeah, that seems like the most reasonable solution. I wonder what ping could be expected. 130 ms?

 

[Edwardo]

Tbh, it looks like their thread was made in gaming OT, so I can see how they filled up the slots. Probably a lot of people who play League but just don't post in the OT. I think we could probably get this off the ground if someone were to spearhead.

Oh ya definitely. I notice in the lcs thread and other various threads too that there are ppl who play, but don't post in here. There's a good amount of people in our in-game channel that don't regularly post too.

Summons/Ghost caster combo would be required

 

[Stone Ocean]

My duo is from the UK and he gets like 180 ms on NA, but then again he has a pretty shitty connection

 

[Leezard]

EU Challenger series finals is on now!

Origen vs CW Academy (formerly known as LowLandLions.White).

Stream link:

See xPeke fail or succeed at getting a guaranteed spot in the LCS.

 

[Edwardo]

I get ~80 NA and ~90 EUW. I live on the US east coast.

 

[Leezard]

I get ~80 NA and ~90 EUW. I live on the US east coast.

So a ~170 ping in NA wouldn't be improbable, I guess. That's rough.

 

[Mostmanlyman]

Soo is Shen good now becuase I have see a lot of people playing him recently. I have him but usally don't play him.
What should I build on him?
Also 1 last question is challenging smite top lane good on tanks?

 

[CornBurrito]

I feel like the game could use a massive art overhaul for Summoner's Rift.

 

[Newt]

I feel like the game could use a massive art overhaul for Summoner's Rift.

It already did...

 

[Stone Ocean]

I feel like the game could use a massive art overhaul for Summoner's Rift.

They completely updated Summoner's Rift a few months ago?

 

[NCR Redslayer]

Thats what Riot did a half a year ago. At this point, its better if they just work on LoL2.

 

[CornBurrito]

It needs another one then. The art style just... isnt for me I guess?

 

[Bacon]

It needs another one then. The art style just... isnt for me I guess?

This is what it looked like a few months ago

 

[Stone Ocean]

Probably. This is what the game used to look like

EDIT - Beaten

 

[Jeff-DSA]

Guess not. I don't know of a MOBA that looks better right now. I absolutely hate how DOTA 2 looks. It was part of the reason I was drawn to League in the first place. It just looked so much cleaner and better, and that was even before the Summoner's Rift art update.

 

[NCR Redslayer]

EDIT - Beaten

Mmm, dem polygons.

 

[Newt]

Whether we can get a League going or not, we should do regular inhouses again.

Really? I think Dota 2 looks fantastic visually, the map is bright and the Radiant/Dire differences are pretty cool. My only complaint is that characters look kind of glossy but that's Source's fault.

Yessssssssssss

I don't like the character models, and I think the map looks, I don't know, muddy? I don't know what it is, but it just looks ugly to me.

Just pick a time and date and its fine.

 

[Bacon]

Yeah I've never loved the look of dota 2 either, but I think it has a lot to do with just being so used to the look of LoL.

 

[eudaemonic]

Hey guys... found this government auction for a LoL statue. No idea what it's from or how rare it is but no one has bid yet and there are two more days.

League of Legends Statue

 

[Stone Ocean]

I don't like the character models, and I think the map looks, I don't know, muddy? I don't know what it is, but it just looks ugly to me.

The female character models look great

I would do unspeakable dirty things to just port over Lanaya and Krobelus to League

I'm free anytime this weekend

Looks like its a statue trynd and singed(?) Either way, someone should get it for 15$.

Personally I prefer the look of Dota2. And Smite looks amazing.

 

[Mabufu]

Forget the style. It's clean and clear like Dota 2 will never be.

 

[Jeff-DSA]

Forget the style. It's clean and clear like Dota 2 will never be.

Yeah, the clean look of League is what really attracts me.

 

[Edwardo]

It took me forever to prefer the look of league over dota. Years of playing the same game really has an effect on u.

 

[Pancakes]

edit: btw since i'm about to go to sleep and im in emotional birthday mood thing

thanks for being my friends, guys!

i love you all <3

also pankaks i still don't understand whatever you pm'd me on steam about lol

You just can't appreciate my dank memes mang.

Spoiler

I figure you would be playing a female character in PoE and would look for "cute" stuff. BUT THERE IS NONE!! Except the preorder piglet.

 

[Stone Ocean]

Those demon godlike chicks are pretty cute if you can get over the giant thing in their faces

 

[Newt]

Imo.

Smite looks the best, but I'm not a fan of the gameplay.

League looks kinda average, gameplay is good.

Dota looks kinda messy to me, gameplay is good.

HoTS...lol.

 

[Einbroch]

Smite looks a lot better after they got their VU.

 

[Stone Ocean]

Smite has what is essentially a half naked Egyptian Sona ADC

I approve

Welp, cya guys.

Wait for meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

 

[Stone Ocean]

Her dance is even Caramelldansen

How is that even fair

 

[NCR Redslayer]

Welp, cya guys.

I guess ill check the system requirements...

 

[iosefe]

you can also play smite....

with a controller


DS4 is a great option

 

[zkylon]

Looking at the items needed for the new Black Cleaver, what do you think of Phage+Brutulizer as the recipe instead?

idea is for black cleaver to stop being an assassin item to make it a more tank buster thing, so it seems ok

New Black Cleaver could be interesting for Yorick (albeit situationally) unless ghouls auto-attacks don't proc the physical damage part for said item.

Also it amazes me that there's a professional creative team being paid to make new skins, and out of 110+ options they couldn't look past Fiddlesticks. I guess at least it's not nearly as uninspired as Dark Candy from the Christmas line? Ziggs' and Zilean's are pretty rad, on the other hand.

you're impossible to please dude

they're making skins for so many different champions, why do you feel the need to complain about fiddle :/

also i think his back animation is awesome

EUGaf would likely have to get on NA smurfs.

And yes, I understand that GAF does have way more DOTA 2 players.

i'll tweetcast

it's just you

the game looks gorgeous now

Wait really? Does it work well? That sounds great
