TXC2: here we GO!
TXC2: Hello Wheeler
Jigokuro:
GhostValv: D:
h3rsh3yb4r: "new"
Didero: Hello Wheeler, hello Chat!
measureofhope: invisicup
TXC2: !patreon
TXC2: !store
TheAwkes: One of those "this is the new show until something newer comes along" situations at this point, huh?
Cptasparagus: you should do a double up stream where you try to teach someone with what you know XD
Gekyouryuu: You say "Teamfight Tactics", I say "Team Chess Match"
electra310: I got a notification for Cameron and Ian Christmas. Did I miss it, was it yesterday?
Didero: That doesn't sound like enough
TXC2: electra310 yes
electra310: Ah well
Gekyouryuu: @electra310 yesterday, yes. Twitch has a weird habit of making the alert for the previous stream
h3rsh3yb4r: they're locking down the island
Gekyouryuu: I'm having a chocolate chip muffin and a can of Mountain Dew Voltage at 1:20 pm. breakfast of champions
Cptasparagus: riots client is a bug
h3rsh3yb4r: it happens to certain machines after they added vanguard
SohNata: Time for TFT, where the Tea is the mug we'll knock over while rolling down for our sweet sweet Viktor
Didero:
I feel like any crash qualifies as a bug, yeah
PMAvers: My personal experience with the League client is that it doesn't like it if you're alt-tabbing between windows a lot right then when it's trying to load.
Didero: Should we be hearing the game?
TXC2: all modern programs are badly programmed
Gekyouryuu: happened to me every time I tried to play a month or two ago, so I just gave up and uninstalled
Diabore: already got a conqueror emblem, 9 conqueror incoming?
Verrain2: What game is this?
Didero:
@TXC2 As somebody currently programming on a hobby project, yes
TXC2: Verrain2 Teamfight Tactics, says in the stream title
thaigeprime:
What about Pepsi Swain mix it up a little
SohNata: Wouldn't be a wandering trainer game without some contesting pileups
h3rsh3yb4r: we don't have game sound btw
CironSkylark:
we do it's just real quiet
SohNata: I can hear game sound
CironSkylark: o7 all good
h3rsh3yb4r: much better
TXC2: better, thank you
h3rsh3yb4r: again lol
Applepies96: Tft is so fun, and this set has been a great time
h3rsh3yb4r: they're not even at 9 anymore the pun is ruined
SohNata: I think this has been my favourite set since Remix Rumble
TXC2:
well MoC is on at TEN, so nine can work out yes
SohNata: And it's hard to top Remix Rumble
Applepies96: I've finally found comps that I enjoy playing, like Sentinel tristana, Emissary flex, conqueror
Applepies96: Oh and Enforcer, vertical traits are fun lol
h3rsh3yb4r: when you said "my skin can do this" i thought you meant your actual literal human skin for half a second and got terrified you were gonna do something crazy
thaigeprime: Oh btw Wheeler any plans to play the bazaar on the show?
Applepies96: Swain is a HOUSE
BrowneePointz: I'm just patiently waiting for more 2XK0 news
thaigeprime:
SohNata: I've really enjoyed the nonsense Bronze for Life builds
CironSkylark: understandable :>
Diabore: im guessing when it goes free, which atm is next month but might be delayed again
GreatGodOm: 1 more December? from now on is a year only 11 months?
h3rsh3yb4r: vlad is a hemomancer
CironSkylark: wow swain is a beast
h3rsh3yb4r: not a vampire
Didero: Time off is good
GreatGodOm: The content beat must be fed constantly.
kyosokun: This is where being a team is great. You being off still means content continues
GreatGodOm: beast*
Didero: Switch the stream to idle games for January, so you don't even have to be here
Tommadness: unfortunately Love Live shut down already
Didero: Is This Your Waifu?
Diabore: gives 4 scrap
TXC2:
Didero the ITYC/Now Kiss crossover we never knew we needed
Diabore: slam conque
Applepies96: Get to conq 9 and just stomp XD
Diabore: 9 conque is in sight now
Applepies96: Just need 1 more emblem
Diabore: @Applepies96 nah we golden, got 2 emblems already
thaigeprime:
BrowneePointz: I love that game even if it aged like milk
Applepies96: @diabore yea even with 2 that's only 8
BrowneePointz: well..more like yoghurt
thaigeprime: Today on is this your card: super Mario 64
h3rsh3yb4r: play conkers and tell james it's backgammon
Diabore: @Applepies96 no? there are 7 in the game

BrowneePointz:
and that's only the first level
Hpjones10: The mighty poo is a great boss fight
Didero: My slow brain: "But it's Sunday evening..."
h3rsh3yb4r: it's sunday afternoon the weekend is ending
HungryTanuki:
Working on saturday, I still have a day of weekend
FurthestChunk: it's wild that they named a part of time after the blinding lights guy
Diabore: we're still on 1 star swain
LithelyUnshod: Didn't we want to get Rell in?
h3rsh3yb4r: we do be healing a bit
TXC2: needlessly large? can't we cut it down a bit ?
LithelyUnshod: Ah, just saw the one on the bench
SohNata: It's decent
Diabore: 15% omni doesnt seem bad, but i feel i vastly overrate omni
ArcOfTheConclave: 15% omni might be good
GreatGodOm: What is omnivamp?
h3rsh3yb4r: @GreatGodOm lifesteal
h3rsh3yb4r: but for all sources
GreatGodOm: @h3rsh3yb4r ah. Thanks.
ArcOfTheConclave: @GreatGodOm every 100 damage dealt, you heal 15
Diabore: nice
FurthestChunk: as someone who missed stream one and was tuned out through stream two, what is this game anyway
TXC2: it's an autobattler
Diabore: build a board of champs, send that board to fight a different board of champs, profit
BrowneePointz: huehuehue
FurthestChunk: no i get that which is the core of why i can't tell wtf is happening
SohNata: Pretty sure it's Rell
BrowneePointz: She is from Noxus but a renegade
BrowneePointz: iirc
CrossXhunteR: no, she escaped the fascists
ArcOfTheConclave: rell is a little anti-facist
TXC2: her mom is the fascist
BrowneePointz: yea was being trained as a child soldier cuz of her ferromancy
BrowneePointz: and she said FUCK OFF and rode her metal horse into the sunset
h3rsh3yb4r: i don't think noxus is explicitly fascist anymore, think tht's old lore?
CrossXhunteR: rell is a magic girl that noxus tried to make into a weapon, and rell said "nah, im good"
TXC2: isn't Noxus "fascist" is the same way ancient Sparta was "fascist"
CrossXhunteR: i only now realized you had over 100 gold
CrossXhunteR: noxus loves them some colonizing, so who can say
wiigamer1995: finally a real boi
wiigamer1995: is this ranked?
Diabore: 2 trinity force
h3rsh3yb4r: and you still have 68 gold... this is wealth inequality in action
TXC2: wiigamer1995 I think so
BrowneePointz: They're adding Mel to League proper next year
CrossXhunteR: i am unsure if that has been officially announced
h3rsh3yb4r: steven shroud
Diabore: that is a thicc illaoi
CrossXhunteR: now you got me thinking of Steven Flowe again
CrossXhunteR: what would ambessa go in over
CrossXhunteR: i guess you can go 10 soon enough
Applepies96: Ambessa!

Cannonfodder79: helm on Elise?
Diabore: throw conque on elise?
Cannonfodder79: Wit on Draven?
wiigamer1995: 10 conc need 3 emblems
Applepies96: Yea in theory, unless we hit 3rd emblem we can go down to 6 conq and have another 5 cost or even a 6 in its place
Applepies96: Like if we hit Viktor we replace our wrost conq with it
h3rsh3yb4r: 98 gold
h3rsh3yb4r: lol
CrossXhunteR: what is giving you gold during fights? conqueror?
SohNata: It's Spoils of War
SohNata: Tho Conq is giving us gold from time to time
Applepies96: There's a near Warwick trick, where you trap him in the bottom right corner and he leaps out to execute people when it's time

CrossXhunteR: aegis on darius seems fine
Applepies96: Aegis is good but makes you rearrange your board usually
CrossXhunteR: i imagine it doesnt matter, unless people start hitting 3 star 4 costs
Cannonfodder79: LOL
CrossXhunteR: easy
CrossXhunteR: this is last fight
CrossXhunteR: probably
Applepies96: Hear me out think you'll win before then lol
SohNata: This is quite the board, yeah
Applepies96: Viktor is cracked lol
HungryTanuki:
TXC2: Winner!
Applepies96: They nerfed him, and he's still good
TXC2: MAWP
Mangledpixel: MAWP
CrossXhunteR: got to love the LoL client
wiigamer1995:

BrowneePointz: client audio not same level as game audio unfortunately
h3rsh3yb4r: i didnt see em
CrossXhunteR: i think you can modify client sound level in the settings, but maybe not
TXC2: did they run ads on the Cam an Ian xmas?
TXC2: !break
LRRbot: Remember chat, break time for the streamer means break time for YOU, so unclench, get up, stretch, walk about a bit, and maybe refresh your drink, take your meds, or go to the toilet if you need to. Don't forget to wash your hands!
Mangledpixel: TXC2 seems antithetical to the vibe of that show
TXC2: Mangledpixel oh indeed, hence why I asked

RyleGrimrick: *’ is this a bird’
SnackPak_: sup
TXC2: and we're back
CrossXhunteR: i did not see enough irelia emote spam that game
TXC2: sounds good
Applepies96: I hit plat this set i was so happy, now I wish I was emerald lol
CrossXhunteR: busy time of year
Applepies96: I hit plat exclusively playing emissary flex
cuttlefishman: is the sauna sprite... just the egg sprite soft boiled
RyleGrimrick: Quick question: are you going to invest at all in the League of Legends paper card game coming out next year?
Cannonfodder79: What site do you use for item recommendations?
CrossXhunteR: a streamer i watch was in one of those boxbox bootcamps a number of sets ago, and it was real fun watching them grind the hell out of the set
thraximore: Emerald is ... Higher than platinum?
TXC2:
emote spam is the jangling keys of this game
FurthestChunk: oh damn we have Judas Iscariot in this match/
Applepies96: If you play 4 emissary and hit 2 star ambessa and 2 star garren you should top 4
FurthestChunk: ?
CrossXhunteR: @FurthestChunk i thought you meant Maddie at first
RayFK: Chem Baron or bust
cuttlefishman: I mean, marshall is pretty chill
CrossXhunteR: martial law, the hit 90s tv show starring Sammo Hung?
Applepies96: Conq is my favorite way to start even if it's not what I'm playing long term
BlasterKyubey210: A bit of improvisonal stuff sounds right
CrossXhunteR: quick 6
FurthestChunk: we're martial law guys, of course we violate freedoms
Applepies96: I'm a sucker for caretakers ally
CrossXhunteR: bench is great at forcing 3 star 4 costs
RayFK: Bench is absurd, just start rolling for that conq
SohNata: Ahhh, Pandora is like my fave aug
SohNata: Right after Recombob, which i always click more than I should
h3rsh3yb4r: any swains on the board
EmteeAK: All hail the magic conq?
thraximore: Why did that person have an enormous head
SohNata: They probably took the Titanic Titan augment
tehfewl: conq watching eh?
SohNata: (You grow in size, gain 20 life but move 20% slower on carousel)
TXC2: big heads so you can see who they are ?
RayFK: That's character growth
RayFK: Just pulling out of the joke
FurthestChunk: @thraximore oh come on ben's head isn't that big
thraximore:
RayFK: le sigh
TXC2: !clips

thraximore: Your character might have stage 5
CrossXhunteR: i don't know if there is anything they can do to ever make me think that Guinsoo's isn't the best TFT item
TXC2: the old e-zed p-zed
thraximore: She's HUGE good lord
TXC2: "steady, gentlemen"
CrossXhunteR: oh, do they actually fill your board instead of leaving you with an empty unit spot
BrowneePointz: I'm still sad we never got a Brorelia skin
h3rsh3yb4r: is that braum with the shield
TXC2: ambadassador
GreatGodOm: I just played in the finals of a pioneer masters draft against someone who had oath of nissa, nissa vastwood seer, ashiok, and 5-mana Lili. Some people have the best opens.
Applepies96: You can also do 4 form swapper 6 conq
reindeering: why are three guys on the bench on purple squares?
CrossXhunteR: @reindeering his augement rerolls them into other units of the same cost each ound
FurthestChunk: @reindeering they stinky
CrossXhunteR: ambessa one time
h3rsh3yb4r: is that just a regular dude
CrossXhunteR: not just a regular dude. a barkeep
TXC2: Vander? yeah, just a normal guy
h3rsh3yb4r: with a head that big they must spend a lot on that red hair dye
PMAvers: Adam peeks his head in through the door
TXC2:
h3rsh3yb4r she has to breed her own cochineals to get enough dye from them
BrowneePointz: PIZZaRIA!
h3rsh3yb4r: if you don't call them cards it defeats the purpose of the show
CrossXhunteR: is that the trundle hero augment
ipoddodd: It IS the hero augment trundle
TXC2: card like gaming pieces
ipoddodd: It's better to roll the other augments that you're not going to pick,
TXC2: !backseat
LRRbot: Please refrain from backseat gaming unless the streamer asks for help or !heychat is active. The streamer wants to play the game the way they want. Feel free to discuss tactics in chat or with the mods.
TXC2: week 3 of this game
MedicCasts: Mr. Wheeler I see you are playing both Darius and Gangplank, these are both top laners, can I suggest you swap one out for a midlaner instead?
Applepies96: You ever jungle as cho'gath?
CrossXhunteR: jungling with GP when you could deny lane creeps? smh
h3rsh3yb4r: we have a swain, and he's great in any lane! (except jungle)
TXC2:
it was YEARS before I realised it was jungle and not juggle
CrossXhunteR: raise morale?
Applepies96: Let me tell you what, you ain't lived til you have slammed cho'gath who basically gets double smites
BrowneePointz: Season 2 Jungle Poppy Baby
BrowneePointz: No one expected
Applepies96: Cho was my jungle main for awhile XD
BrowneePointz: God i miss old Poppy kit
Juliamon: TXC2 I literally ONLY know it's jungle because they gave away lane lanyards at a PAX and I got the jungle one
BrowneePointz: remember when old poppy could ult the support and 1v5 the entire enemy team?

CrossXhunteR: urgot was the first "new" champ when i started, so it makes it easy to figure out exactly when i started playing LoL forever ago
MedicCasts: Old urgot was a trip
BrowneePointz: Old Urgot on Urf
BrowneePointz: You could q 6 times in one second
CrossXhunteR: i started playing league almost half my time on this earth ago
ipoddodd: Crabbed
Mangledpixel:
tehfewl: get crabbed
TXC2:
Applepies96:
Imagine if we get sevika or mordekaiser
BrowneePointz: I used to play Ap Teemo Mid with DFG and his old ratios
BrowneePointz: no one respected Teemo Lich Bane auto with dfg in mid
tehfewl: i remember season 2 Meta Golem
BrowneePointz: good old Atmog's @tehfewl
h3rsh3yb4r: its jsut the same one
BrowneePointz: Ad Sion late game making his team unkillable during ult

345tom: nah not official but has a lot of depth for an autobattler
h3rsh3yb4r: no it's fanmade, but really well done
CrossXhunteR: that mundo is large
SohNata: Ooo, what's that called?
h3rsh3yb4r: client has seperate audio options than the game yeah
TXC2: 10 LP wasn't it?
h3rsh3yb4r: i thought it was 10
BrowneePointz: Yea I HATE that the client and the game have different audio sliders
BrowneePointz: Riot why do they have different sliders?
TXC2: Big stretch
tehfewl: oh, big stretch
CrossXhunteR: do you say "oh, big stretch" when your cat makes a big stretch
h3rsh3yb4r: @CrossXhunteR no, just the streamer
SnackPak_: it's the law
TXC2: that's a big jnyx
h3rsh3yb4r: she looks like a cop
CrossXhunteR: no game audio

Thanks for subscribing, luke1x! (Today's storm count: 8)
TXC2: so this is probably a question that can't be answered over chat, but why does placement on the board matter?
CrossXhunteR: wonder what the academy items are this game
luke1x: I imagine who draws aggro or where troops attack
A_Dub888: 'YOU DIDN'T <do thing>'
Didero: Yeah, that sounds like us
ipoddodd: @TXC2 Certain units (darius for example) have an ability that wants opponents unites to wrap around him, and you want your carry to not be attacked, etc
CrossXhunteR: can you hover Academy real quick?
TXC2: ipoddodd ok, thanks
SohNata: Oh yeah, that augment is worded atrociously
TXC2:
reading the card explains the card
SohNata: I've seen pros make the same conclusion as you
ipoddodd: Have you seen 1v9 lux builds?
CrossXhunteR: normal guy, but he's got a large rod
h3rsh3yb4r: because it's a christmas movie
ipoddodd: Lux doesn't mana lock herself when she shields herself, so double archangels bloodthirster allows her to go infinite
BrowneePointz: wow rare wheeler L
Didero: The human need to categorize everything gets aggravating sometimes
h3rsh3yb4r: yeah but a hot dog is a sandwich though
BrowneePointz: my same thoughts about people who think it is one
BrowneePointz: *shoves the whole movie into a shredder*
goombalax: wait what's not a christmas movie
Didero: Also, I don't know Die Hard very well, but in general, a movie taking place during Christmas doesn't necessarily make it a Christmas movie
CrossXhunteR: is die hard 2 a christmas movie
LithelyUnshod: You should watch Movies with Mikey's Christmas movie ranking video
goombalax: oh die hard, definitely a christmas movie
luke1x: Don't put people in boxes wheeler they could be contrarian and dunb
SnackPak_: there was intention to make it a christmas movie
CrossXhunteR: ive never seen die hard 1, but have seen 4, 2, and part of 3
TXC2: CrossXhunteR that is wild
tehfewl: do you watch "Nightmare before Christmas" on Christmas or Halloween?
LithelyUnshod: Iron Man 3 is not a Christmas movie
goombalax: christmas permeates the entire movie, its got as much christmas music as home alone
h3rsh3yb4r: @tehfewl trick question, thanksgiving
CrossXhunteR: im more of a jingle all the way kinda guy
BrowneePointz: @goombalax factually incorrect
luke1x: The weirdest thing about Die Hard for me is that Bruce Willis is in friends where Die Hard exists and no one ever recognizes him at all!
goombalax: @BrowneePointz oh shit we rockin facts I'm cooked
PMAvers: They made a movie based on the Nightmare before Christmas TCG?
h3rsh3yb4r: do you do a good oceiros impression?

more darkness, a whole world of it perhaps ?

TXC2: CrossXhunteR that was yesturday

SohNata: Set 14 will be March
A_Dub888: Benjamin "Would love a donger" Wheeler
accountmadeforants: Raise your dongers and such
jessicaengle:
Dongle the bongle
TXC2: surely dongers in against twitch TOS?
accountmadeforants: Apparently, "raise ur dongers" did literally derive from Heimerdinger, that's amazing.
A_Dub888: @accountmadeforants you're amazing
TXC2:
heimerdinger has just never been around 10 year olds has he?
CrossXhunteR: i don't know if ive ever heard raise your dongers outside of a league of legends context before
CrossXhunteR: forever
DVio141: Forever
MedicCasts: They are technically immortal
MedicCasts: if they die they 'respawn' in bandle city
jessicaengle: I don't get it.
MedicCasts: @jessicaengle it's funny because he is the teemo
TXC2: jessicaengle Teemo is character, when Wheeler uses them they die a lot
CrossXhunteR: just blind them when they go to CS
jessicaengle:
I don't get half the jokes around here, but am willing to take it on faith that it's funny to someone else
Diabore: "lol mushrooms"
TXC2:
jessicaengle that's how my jokes work, only I'm the someone else
CrossXhunteR: teemo in the digital card game did a job at capturing the "fucking mushrooms" feeling you get facing him in League
CrossXhunteR: renata was one of my favs to play in ARAM
SohNata: I don't play League but if I did, I'd one-trick Renata
DVio141: Bailout is also absurd in ARAM
CrossXhunteR: if i remember correctly, she was developed for LoL after they tried making Silco and realized that wouldnt work as a LoL champ

CrossXhunteR: getting back into magic has poisoned my mind, because i hear you say Jayce and i immediately think "JVP"
SohNata: That's a scary Jonx
Earthenone: i still think of dragonball Z Jace
CrossXhunteR: does anyone die to crab here
CrossXhunteR: oh, not the offensive crab
SohNata: I'm yet to have a Crab Rave game this set and I'm 100+ lobbies in
Earthenone: carcinization will come to those who belive
raulghoulia: just so I can accurately plan out my day what's the average times per minute Wheeler says dong?
A_Dub888:
SohNata: Oh for sure, my favourite encounter is "no encounter"
tehfewl: Games?
TXC2:
Wheeler with the nuclear hot take there
SohNata: Though I also don't mind the simpler ones like the Vi Components
Earthenone: i have only played like 10 rounds of this game, but i like the Random tag dummies one to give a direction
SohNata: But the 3 emblems can get in the bin
SohNata: as can the loot subscription
CrossXhunteR: do they still have a No Augments encounter in this set?
PMAvers: PENTAKILL
SohNata: I think they took no augments out, actually. I liked it but loads of people hate it
TXC2: !break
LRRbot: Remember chat, break time for the streamer means break time for YOU, so unclench, get up, stretch, walk about a bit, and maybe refresh your drink, take your meds, or go to the toilet if you need to. Don't forget to wash your hands!
SohNata: Which is wild given we had 6 sets of no augments
Earthenone: maybe they should have a lower randomness pool of augments for higher ranks or something because as a new player my preferences seem to be the oposite of yours, like the components i dident even know what items smashed together into what, and i was against people who intentionaly crafted like 4 copies of an item
TXC2: and we're back
SohNata: @Earthenone Might be interesting for them to take that route. Augment prefrences are all over the place though, even amongst higher tier/pro players
A_Dub888: Oh Wheeler, you're already smoking (hot)
SohNata: Like I *hate* emblems, as do many pros, others love them
TXC2: people still smoke ?
SohNata: Yeah, that's basically my complaint with them. Like I get players like making 8/10 of a trait, and I want people to have that fun, but I think it should be more like...you have to craft them all with spats and it's a rare treat, not just "wandering trainer, augment, augment"
SohNata: Inkobrn Fables was atrocious for it
SohNata: But I don't envy the designers, I suspect the psychographs for this game are all over the shop in terms of wants and desires
PMAvers: I mean that's what I say every time I see someone on my team pick Morg in regular League...
Earthenone:
the fast and furious build?
DVio141: I love emblems but that's because I like playing trait soup stuff for funny
goombalax: I liked the buff Kayle build
Earthenone: im still at the stage where i just find a champion i like with 3 traits, and try and get those 3 traits to match others *shrug*
SohNata: Is this a Hey Chat ask?
TXC2: cops killing cops, the Piltover story
ArcOfTheConclave: so this tft season is half normal tft champs and half random zaunite mooks from archane?
A_Dub888: Wheeler, YOU'RE really good right now (like always)
TXC2: ArcOfTheConclave yeah kinda
tehfewl: never seen it
Earthenone: you wouldent splice onto an arcane would you
A_Dub888: there's an 'R-cane'?? I haven't been keeping up with the cane meta
SnackPak_: oh big stretch
TXC2: big stretch
A_Dub888: uh ohhhh, stretchyyyy
Niehilius: if you win? When you win!
Fr0Dough: I can never absorbe how to play while watching, any resources I could watch/read to help?
MedicCasts: I have a friend who made a guide recently too, if I can shout them out
SohNata: TFT Academy is very good, imo which is run by Frodan
MedicCasts: Troubleinc on youtube just released her beginners guide
MedicCasts: TFT academy, TFT tactics very good for build data too
MedicCasts: Emissary artillerests looking hot here
SohNata: @Fr0Dough There are some streamers who I'd say are fairly "LRRish" in vibes even if they're not necessarily like specifically educational TFT streamers - Bloody is great (and I think a friend of LRR folk?) as is SpicyAppies
Fr0Dough: thanks everyone!
itsaysTRUENO: easiest way to start imo is picking up obscure warcraft 3 custom maps in 2005 and playing them for 20 years or so
Earthenone: do champions lose their "2 cost" status when you tripple them?
TXC2: windows please
Paranundrox: @Earthenone "2 cost" is the tier

Chibi characters are in a perpetual state of
TXC2:
PMAvers and it has some value
accountmadeforants: Yeah, not a huge fan either, but I've always appreciated them as a way for anime to get out funny extra episodes without breaking the bank.
MedicCasts: What's your end game?
MedicCasts: Okay makes sense
MedicCasts: I tend to transition into 4 emissary, 4 art, but I like the sentinel angle
solemn_storm: rollin rollin rollin
luke1x: Is this a true randomization?
SohNata: @luke1x It will start doing repeats
CrossXhunteR: it is kinda crazy to me that they made this system originally where things didnt repeat
redpandrake: Hello Mr. Wheeler and all, I was watching several Spike Feeders vids and loved your brews
MedicCasts: Very painful when you run out of time
CrossXhunteR: what did you actually get on the trist
Diabore: ah hell yeah scuttle pond
wmulroy11: what % is is tristana's ability at?
Diabore: itll be a corkii
satyropodobny: I see Wheeler has given in to the sirens song of the Arcane
accountmadeforants: The timer should have respected that you had a lot of money. Therefor are above the rules and inconvenience
luke1x: Do you plan on doing TFT on your personal stream after its run on this channel?
Diabore: what did trist get? i didnt see
SohNata: Watch her now bully someone in a 1v1
CrossXhunteR: your trist deletes people
CrossXhunteR: are you singing the hit song "Goodbye" from the Arcane: A League Of Legends Story (Season 1) soundtrack?
SohNata: Yeah, I'd agree with that
MedicCasts: Something like the one that takes them off the battlefield for 5 seconds and they jump in and stun
MedicCasts: 'dramatic entrance, that's the one
Sir_Carl: I think the intended playstyle for the Anomalies is that you're not supposed to roll for BIS, but maybe there's still too much difference between "good" and "great" for that to work

solemn_storm: lol
Diabore: you lose front line, they lose back line
solemn_storm: btw timing out that one time totally cost you the game
CrossXhunteR: our trist sometimes has a nasty habit of casting for the last 1/10th of a units health bar
accountmadeforants: Pew
Diabore: so close to the perfect game
solemn_storm: the realistic chibi face is a little terrifying
MedicCasts: But it gets the bounce so it dmg amps no?
CrossXhunteR: it bounces?
Diabore: hard right turn
ipoddodd: @CrossXhunteR That's scaling baybee
MedicCasts: worth it for the 1.25%
TXC2: that's one big bug
solemn_storm: big WHAT
Diabore: big assumption that there will be a "later"
weirdkidog: <message deleted>fuck
CrossXhunteR: unless this game goes wildly different from here forward, i don't think there is going to be too much later
Diabore: 1v1
redpandrake: BibleThump
CrossXhunteR: closest game ive ever seen
Diabore: not perfect,. may as well concede
TXC2: pave the save
CrossXhunteR: does the irelia have items
satyropodobny: there goes mr 100
MedicCasts: Whatn % is your trist ad amp at atm?
MedicCasts: Must be like 35%
SohNata: Morello is good on Rumble, yep
Diabore: illaoi maybe?
MedicCasts: You have to hover the skill
MedicCasts: 80%?!
MedicCasts: HOLY MOLY
CrossXhunteR: oh, they hit 10 and put in viktor
MedicCasts: Viktor hit you
SohNata: Viktor
Diabore: Viktor-y
TXC2: damn, viktor's cracked
CrossXhunteR: yeah, this might be bad
CrossXhunteR: luckily you had a million hp to survive a handful of fights if need be
Diabore: yeah that pop up is letha;
CrossXhunteR: a viktor on each side is very funny to see, because they cast at basically the same time
TXC2: I am shocked this has gone to round 7
redpandrake:
trist with +0/+10
Diabore: get academy with that, whats the sponsor?
CrossXhunteR: so many sunfires
CrossXhunteR: you shit out damage, but that stun kills you
CrossXhunteR: correct
CrossXhunteR: his attack speed doesnt adjust, and he doesnt use mana, i want to say
TXC2: wow viktor needs nerfing
SohNata: Sadly we don't have the front-line to handle the Ambessa and Morde 2
CrossXhunteR: considering you tanked like 70+ gold and effectively didnt get an anomaly, that went okay
TXC2: hear to LRRn
SohNata: We won one earlier
TXC2: we did win one
SohNata: That's very +LP
Diabore: conques won yeah
