    Yeah...I'll hold my tongue, but Cranica is occasionally frustratingly difficult to play with. And yeah, I'm glad it didn't go too far. I don't like watching people tear into each other.

    Also, bad builds != bad players. I may love the fuck out of DFG/Nashor's Tooth Fizz, but it's a very expensive build that takes a long time before it hits its stride, which gives up a lot of Fizz's early-mid game power and presence. I'd like to think I'm not a bad Fizz player, but there has occasionally been games where building DFG/Nashor's is just the wrong decision, period.
    Good point, but i always rage when i see an ahri building a wrong build. and I was foolish to not go with my main that game, i probably would have done much better. Oh well w/e

    And i cant' say if you're a good fizz player or not but you didn't do half bad when I was man dropped that hecarim for ya in mid.

    True that. I noticed that, sometimes, it's better to just let it flow through you than to hide it, but those are rare cases.

    The same reason I needed to switch up my early build as Taric. It became much easier to build 2 of those small mana medalions, some potions and a sentry than one Meki's Pendant and one health and one mana potion.

    That said, I think I saw a better one on r/soccer a few days ago. I'm not sure. Yes, I know what you're thinking, and I'm equally as ashamed as you are by the fact that I still browse Reddit, but r/soccer and r/formula1 are decent enough I suppose.
    I don't browse Reddit. It was on another forum I visit. I am also not into soccer either, but gotta love seeing something awesome.

    Here, a couple badass soccer goals.

    One. I advise you to stop watching around 1:00 unless you like hearing someone who has no idea what's he's talking about, talking about it like he totally knows what he's talking about, and expects the fact he's standing in a sciencey-looking lab to give him credibility.

    And two. Nothing more to be said about this one, really.

    You won't get much better if all you do is play the same thing over and over. Guardsman Bob brought this up briefly on-stream the other day; in ranked, a lot of people get 'stuck' in "ELO hell" because they try to win every single game, and to achieve that they just play what they know best. If you're looking to improve as a player, that's not the way to go. Just try other roles or champions--even if you don't pick them up as a main or become super-good at them, you'll likely become decent with that role or champion and, by extension, become more intimate with how that champion/role can or is played, and therefore you better know how to play against that role or champion.

    Hehe, that was pretty funny. Hecarim spent most of that game trying to kill me, sadly, but the rest of y'all stepped in and kicked ass, so it's k.

    I kind of miss having someone to watch F1 with. IRL, at least.

    That's the thing, I have been playing a lot of other characters recently. Cass, pantheon, darius, mundo. . . those are some to name a few that i've played recently. oh and MF and Ez. I'm not a good jungler (because lack of coordination), i'm not a good support, i'm not a good ad carry, but i'm sure as hell a damn good mid or top. but still, and i'm not trying to be the best player in the world, just . . . a decent enough player that i win more than lose, which i've done, i'm like 60 wins ahead of loses and have been around 60-80 for a long time (since like 250 wins)

    I know I'm late again, but those are my most recent measurements (like, 4 months old).

    Hah, I actually remember both of those.

    I can think of a few as well.

    I'm only linking this one because it was scored by my favorite team against their rivals. Regardless, how he actually managed to get a foot on that one is still a mystery to me.

    Sheer beauty, even though it was against my favorite non-Romanian team.

    And who could forget this...

    Sorry, I made a mistake, I'm 680 metres wide and 3 nanometres in depth. Oh, and I'm a Dirac Sea.

    My weight comes from over a month ago, I bet I gained weight while I haven't been all that active.

    Yeah, I've dropped below the 200 lbs mark. Sort of pleased with myself, considering I haven't been working out all that much lately (I really need to start doing it again), but I want to go even lower. Way lower.

    As for my height, gimme a moment.

    175cm. Odd. I figured I was shorter than that.

    175 cm isn't that short is it? I am 190.5.

    Edit: Nevermind just looked. A tad short, but pretty normal.
