I think my new rule for league games is if nobody is dead by 10 minutes, it sucks.

SKT did the thing they do every worlds, and they just play basic shit in groups to learn the best meta, an then try to outdo everyone in that meta in brackets.

only the strategy they picked up on, from misfits, relies heavily on everyone but mid lane, which is a big mismatch for skt. especially in a bot lane centric worlds.


But yeah that finals was real bad.

It's more an issue of mid not having as high an impact on the early game this meta. Between that, Huni being hit or miss due to playstyle, and their bot lane struggling it was just their time to lose. RNG made a colossal mistake of giving Faker Galio 5x, because in this meta Faker has to be a fireman for the team - and it still took 5 games.

Put plainly, Faker was the only well performing player on SKT at Worlds, give or take junglers - something I'd have to rewatch the games to discern.

So I think I'm 90% sure I'm gonna quit this job come the new year.

I love pretty much everything about this job. The people I work with, the projects I work on, the benefits, the technology, it's all just great. Best company I've worked for. But the commute is killing me. Leave before 7am, get back around 7pm. ~3-4 hours of commute per day is just... not good.

Yeah it's not really "hard" because I'm on the train and therefore I can read or watch Netflix or play DS or whatever, but that's time away from my family. When I was single and making the commute (worked in the city for a stint a few years back), I didn't care what time I got home or what my schedule was like because there was no one I was beholden to but myself. But now, I leave before the wife gets up, and we get a couple hours together before we get ready for bed. I barely get to help take care of our new dog for the same reasons, making her shoulder most of the responsibility.

So I basically stopped doing hobby stuff during the week because the little time I get before bed is spent with my wife and pup instead of by myself, since it sucks trying to split it. And I miss playing games or painting models after a day of work.

This decision just... it sucks. If this job was any distance closer, it would be fine. But I can't commit this much time just getting to a job and neglecting the rest of my life. I hate leaving since I really would like to build a career here and I don't think I'll find a job as good as this one again, but I don't derive the happiness in my life from a job. I get it from my family and personal life. While I want those 40 hours per week to be good, I just can't see myself letting them chip away at the rest of it.

Ugh. Unhappy either way.
It's your boy Guzma!

There will be other good jobs but there won't be a way to get back the hours you lose with quality time both together with your partner and alone on hobbies.

there was a documentary I saw when a guy described and showed actual viking combat. it was incredibly underwhelming basically you just hid behind your shield and tried to hit the other guy with it.

You and I have a very different ideas of what underwhelming is
bossheld shield duels are some of the most exciting you'll find I think, and technique and precision heavy.
It's like saying boxing is underwhelming, it's just about hitting the other guy in the head and avoiding hits yourself.

Thats correct, boxing is the most boring shit imaginable.
Americans don't like to use unblockables, it is considered not honest. You press a button at the wrong time and hit the other person, you are random, not a top player. You DP Sim's far fierce, it is random and not honest.

In Thailand I went to a professional Muay Thai match.

Shit was so boring I almost walked out.

Martial arts in general are really boring to watch. if I wanted to watch two people pummel each other i'd go back to high school or watch WWE where its actually entertaining.

I respect the sport, and i understand the bettor angle. but damn if its not a waste of time to watch.

Sports with very high levels of technical skills can be boring to watch, especially by a casual viewer who doesn't understand the nuances of said sport.

Fwiw, I enjoy watching tennis but don't find golf, baseball, boxing exciting.

Couldn't you just move if you were slightly more patient? Or did you buy a house?

Just bought a house, and also I have no desire to move to the city or even much closer than I am now. Plus we moved so the wife would be closer to her job.

It just is what it is.

The worst part about Daylight Savings is that my dog doesn't understand it so he's barking right outside my bedroom at 5:20 in the morning because he has to pee and I just want to sleep. Adorable bastard.
