Crits aren't really RNG; look up markov chains.

the crit algorithm is pretty counterintuitive

not sure why it isn't uniformly random (or pseudo-random if you want to get really technical) as opposed to the increased chance after not critting system

Most people don't like actual uniformly random variables; markov chains basically reduce the variance of the result without changing the expected value.

For example, which of the following sequences would you rather prefer happen in a game (say the 6's are critical hits)

[5, 3, 3, 4, 1, 6, 6, 6, 5, 3, 2, 4, 4, 3, 4, 1, 1, 2, 4, 1]
[2, 6, 1, 4, 2, 5, 6, 1, 2, 4, 1, 5, 3, 2, 4, 6, 3, 1, 4, 5]

Most people prefer the second sequence to the first, even though the first sequence is actually the one that's truly random. The first sequence was generated by rolling a 6 sided die 20 times (in python). The second sequence was generated by rolling a 6 sided die, but rerolling the ones that matched either the previous throw or the previous previous throw. In both cases the expected number of 6's is the same (20/6), but the first sequence is prone to having long runs with 6's and long runs without 6's, while the 6's in the second sequence are more evenly distributed throughout.



Both of your sequences are exactly equally likely to be the result of rolling a 6-sided die 20 times.
It doesn't make sense to provide a specific sequence of numbers and claim that either one is "truly random".

It doesn't matter that both sequences are equally likely to be a random result. What matters is that the second one was the result of a non-random process which cannot generate the first sequence.

It's also kinda slavic thing because in slavic languages you pronounce things the way they are spelled.
so you wouldn't pronounce Naut as "no:t" but as "Naut" which is a long ass sillable, easier to split it into 2 by addind an extra vowel "Nau-ti"

someone just messaged me that team Siren disbanded, confirmed on OddOne stream. true/false?

Na, I aspire to making videos as inspired and funny as that xerino-stuff-guy. Best 3 minutes of my life, clearly.


I aspire to become an LCS-playing pro by playing one axe-wielding lane bully while being carried by "more talented" players.

Was that over the top? I can't never tell.

I missed the reference. :<


My guess would be that it divides the word from Naut to Nau-ti or Vlad to Vla-di etc. not sure tho xD I still prefer naut/vlad/trynd so much easier to type ^^

I mean if you really want a i in there just call him Spiderman and be done with it.

should I feel bad If I unconciously use Naut, Cass, Vlad but also Trynda and ulti?

oh and usually Kassa for Kassadin to differentiate between those too, although I've probably never played a game where both Cass and Kass appeared
