The issue with YouTube Gaming isn’t that nobody wants to watch it, it’s ludicrously poor research if he thinks that’s what the case is.

It deterred a lot of people, actually. The carrot method’s worked far more effectively than the stick - and he didn’t go back on them, he meant from the get-go that only people with active restrictions would miss out on rewards.

It’s not bullshit at all. Talk shit, get hit (with the banhammer).

Edit: $20, since I’m from Maple Syrup Land.

In fairness, the only ones that are even up for debate are things like disconnections. Usually cases involving verbal harassment/abuse either reform or are wholly unrepentant and get banned.

Made a separate article reply, but:

IMPORTANT: Lyte just made a couple tweets clarifying that his earlier answers were in error.

Straight up, Riot had packet loss issues for MONTHS. Even their server techs were saying it was a problem in the forums, and the higher ups kept covering their ears to all of it. It’s on both sides off the issue - Riot needs to understand (and has since learned, hence the server move and other improvements) that their…

There’s no sweeping blame game, but it’s not impossible to tell if your client is acting up. Play a custom for a couple minutes if you’re unsure, and moreover if you have a laggy game, don’t continue assuming it’s going to get better. I’ve had to quarantine myself to just premades in normal games for about a year…

I’m of two minds on it. On one hand, people need to not be shitty in the game, and that also applies to people who play knowing full well that their connection isn’t stable enough to play the game properly. I’ve been there, it’s NOT difficult to recuse yourself from ranked if that’s the case. You save your own rating…

Origin basically has it anyway, it’s at the very least a lot closer than Steam’s list interface.

The catch? Well, since this new version of Triple Triad is free, and Square Enix needs its sugar, there’s a stamina system that limits how often you can play.

Yeah. It’s going to be picked a lot more, which is nice. I’m tired of feeling like an idiot for picking it in any situation barring Fiora, Yi, AND Trynd on their team. :P

Thornmail feels like a net buff, honestly. Drop the actual reflect ratio a little and make it reflect AD? If you go with an enemy team average AD of 200 (across all the champions, obviously ADC and AD assassins might have 250-300, that’s going from 60 damage to 30, but when you factor in that Thornmail on its own will…

This is honestly like counting chickens before the eggs are even laid.

I’ve seen some good ledes, but that was amazing.

You’re wrong on enough counts that this physically hurts. :P “There just aren’t any girls good enough” was a simple enough statement, if a touch naive, but that bit at the end is fucking ridiculous. You’re not the Gender Police, you don’t get to decide who “counts” as anything.

It’s definitely the harassment. It’s hard enough to break into eSports, and that only gets exponentially worse if you’re not a dude in current eSports culture. A lot of people suggest “just not telling them you’re a girl” - even if that wasn’t blatant victim blaming, you need to be visible enough to attract sponsors…

Curling’s a fuckload harder than people give it credit for, but agreed.

His first name is Seymour.
