Quinn's great in solo queue, but in a serious comp, she's ultra niche. She's basically an adc that's not suited for a duo lane. I always feel kinda bad when I take her top. My team usually gets upset and I'm basically forcing my team to pick around me. If I didn't have a good win rate with her I'd probably see a lot more rage. Still, there's a lot to be said for dominating your lane and carrying your team through the midgame. | ||

The game is decent or no one would play it. It can be better, but not decent? ok. Terrible video. Objectively false. Even if you don't like the subject matter the technical and artistic expertise alone should at least earn some respect. I'm also pretty sure they hired an animation company to do this, so it's not like the video stole away game designers' time. Terrible character. Not released. So you know this... how? Oh are you talking about personality? That sounds like your issue not Riot's. So... wat? | ||

I'm mad at riot clearly spending a fuck ton of money on a shitty video for a shitty character because they want everyone to buy it and make money? How about they spend that money/time into making a decent client, stable servers for EU and the host of others problems? Edit: Shouldnt have bothered posting in this sub forum, the fanboyism is extreme T.T | ||

Every quinn I see is AD nid taken to 9000 in terms of being an annoying as fuck lane bully that AFK split pushes, the difference between quinn and AD nid is that AD nid runs away while quinn kills me when I go to stop her. | ||

If you work at Riot, you're automatically working on the servers, the balance, the client, tickets, and the art all at the same time. But seriously, Riot basically has infinite money for the purposes of game development. Hiring people to do cool shit like this can in no way inhibit their other departments. | ||

The Riot hate, for example, is at a point where every action or event associated with them is a conspiracy to kill Dota2 and "e-sports". There was just one recently where PAX didn't have DotA2 but had LoL in their PC centers, and people were really quick to call Riot conspiracy on(granted it was due to a volunteer's really bad attitude. Something along the lines of asking to play DotA2 -> "just play LoL instead"). It turned out to be easily resolved, but people really jumped on the Riot-hate bandwagon so quick. See this thread: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=427639 Then there is the entire faction of Dota2 players that used to think LoL's fan base was fabricated and their stream views on twitch were fake. Yes, this thing is still around. People still claim that Riot embeds the stream in the pvp.net client so that's why they get higher numbers. This started since the first world championship if I recall correctly, and people still haven't cleared up the misinformation floating around here. Even with having steady viewership numbers for random streams, they still believe that Riot was boosting numbers through this method. | ||
