People
are really getting all hyped about L Block doing a 70-30% on a Kid
Icarus side character? This is pretty much a normal mid carder kinda
match. --- http://i.minus.com/jbiGPMGVHJkJ5F.png http://i.minus.com/jbjrjeszi5Bojs.jpg http://i.minus.com/jDswy1q7MCAye.jpg http://i.minus.com/jX6dhkFSD8ugm.jpg |
It's no fun to react normally. Insane overreactions are the way to go. --- ~War~ |
Well,
going with my idea about L-Block and being stronger with stronger
competition, there is a point where it's legitimately going to be the
strongest in a match even with serious voters. It's essentially a curve.
Against fodder, it will dominate simply by being the only thing
recognizable to the average user. In the early rounds with one strong
and one weak, he's at his weakest. I don't think there's such a thing as
L-Block being strong or weak. He's completely dependent on the strength
of his opponents relative to each other. --- Green is not a creative color http://themanicdepressives.wordpress.com/ |

I was giving someone advice about driving to Cleveland last month, and I couldn't suppress the smile as I told them to avoid the Expressways at all costs. --- Die young and save yourself.

I still don't know how the hell you ended up THAT far off course. --- ~War~ |
I mean, aside from "Cleveland". --- ~War~ |
oh wow this alt still exists |
And now Palutena puts a 1000 vote barrier. --- Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |
To be fair I don't think Draven was being rallied by this point in the match either. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
So what suckers had Teemo doing even remotely well? :3 --- @w@ Gamertag: SliceSabre |
I lost some points in my expert challenge, but that is already dead. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 46/58 Today's Picks: Auron and L-Block |
Now
I'm more concerned that L-Block will be seen as out of reach and thus a
rally will be seen as pointless, which keeps Teemo where he is.
Palutena is easily within rally range but the idea that there'd be a
rally just for that starts to strain credibility. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |

You know what I'm going to create a facebook account to rally for Teemo for the sake of my expert challenge brb 5 minutes |
facebook rally will do literally nothing facebook is not a place to rally --- ~Zen |
Nanis23 posted... You know what no |
Draven started his craziness 3 hours into the match We still have 1 more hour to wait... That won't help, Teemo needed a rally earlier to have a chance. If one does happen in an hour Teemo would just run out of time on L-Block --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 46/58 Today's Picks: Auron and L-Block |
I want another L-Block run just to make you all mad |
charmander6000 posted... Draven started his craziness 3 hours into the match Nonsense. If a rally happens at a noticeable scale, Teemo is going to steamroll the match. It probably won't but that's irrelevant to how it works. |
charmander6000 posted... Draven started his craziness 3 hours into the match Teemo may not have a shot at L-Block, but could get to work on second place. --- Menji has reclaimed what was his by rights. I was more of a man with his than with my own combined. ##Alec |
I still have a feeling that the rally will never come. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
LinkMarioSamus posted... I still have a feeling that the rally will never come. This is likely. I have to insist that the Draven rally was planned well in advance, by a lot of people, and everybody really wanted it to go off so they brought out their persuasive A-Game. Like 90% of those peoples didn't even bother thinking about rallying Teemo, let alone trying. |
4000-vote lead now. |
KanzarisKelshen posted... charmander6000 posted...Draven started his craziness 3 hours into the match If a Teemo rally came out at Draven's level I still think L-Block wins, I don't even think L-Block gets into too much danger either! Could Teemo get a stronger rally? Probably, I mean, I don't see why it wouldn't be possible but I don't think it's at all likely. The Teemo rally is all about beating Palutena now! ...which is not the kind of rallying cry that i think would be very effective. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
A
rally won't happen until a thread is started, and takes off to reach
the front page of LoL subreddit. It has to take off though, otherwise
it'll just get buried. --- http://i.imgur.com/32RNLnc.gif |
charmander6000 posted... Draven started his craziness 3 hours into the match Wasn't Draven's swing in excess of like 5000 votes? And this is with the rally stopping after a certain point. A Teemo rally on Draven's scale starting in an hour would see Teemo win. Won't happen, but still. --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |
MegatokyoEd posted... Considering Palutena is likely mid-fodder at best, L-Block doesn't exactly look good here. I dunno, 70-30 over fodder is an improvement over 2010. He only managed 63.89% against HK-47 and 60.48% against Isaac (Golden Sun), and while I'd probably take either of those two to beat Palutena 1v1, getting nearly 70% on her is probably at least somewhat of an improvement. --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar. You will be missed. |
lol @ me... I was so close to no-picking second, but I kept Teemo in the end. |
Hmm I guess a rally will not happen.But anyway let us see.There are still 10 hours. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
XIII_rocks posted... charmander6000 posted...Draven started his craziness 3 hours into the match L-Block is sitting at a higher percentage than Jak (and Teemo worse than Draven) was which suggests it would be a steeper challenge, lead aside (because L-Block should better resist a rally through non-rally votes.) It also stands to reason that L-Block would be able to steal more of the rallied votes than Jak/Chie could but I guess that is arguable. Just an argument I'd want no part in. I really don't think a Draven-tier rally is good enough here! --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
XIII_rocks posted... charmander6000 posted...Draven started his craziness 3 hours into the match you forget that L-Block would maintain a higher share of the "natural" votes, meaning that Teemo's rally has to be bigger just to pull the same vote swing |
Expressway271 posted... oh wow this alt still exists oh my god, yes. I got lost because the expressway only had certain exits, so when I went past the exit I needed to get to you, I was stuck on it until I could get off the expressway and double back. --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
When
you said you were in Warren, it was one of those moments where time
stopped, and the little voice in the back of my head laughed and laughed
and laughed. --- ~War~ |
Nanis23 posted... You know what And..done My god that took a lot of time I hate Facebook |
FranzyvonKarma posted... When you said you were in Warren, it was one of those moments where time stopped, and the little voice in the back of my head laughed and laughed and laughed. It certainly made for a fun story. Hey, nothin' you can say. Got lost on the express way! --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
Hrm..well..Facebook rallying really doesn't work! Well,here goes 3 points... |
Nanis23 posted... Hrm..well..Facebook rallying really doesn't work! you should be happy to lose those points |
I'm actually wondering if I can back-in to the leaderboard with L-Block > Teemo > Palutena. I have no evidence for it, but I feel like it's more likely that people took Teemo as an upset than Teemo in last. Probably not, and I can't complain if it's a match that results in no change for me, but being this close is just frustrating! --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
I would say 4/6 of the leaderboard picked Teemo for second 1/6 picked him for upset and 1/6 for last... |
Palutena doubling Teemo and keeps rising. --- Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |
Nanis23 posted... I would say 4/6 of the leaderboard picked Teemo for second I am the 67% --- Menji has reclaimed what was his by rights. I was more of a man with his than with my own combined. ##Alec |
I'm
not sure what the split would be but I expect the overwhelming majority
to be in the same boat as me with L-Block/Teemo/Palutena. I just need
4/15 of the people directly above me to pick Teemo, plus 1 more each for
anyone with a 238 or better who went +6...and yeah now that I'm
reasoning this out it doesn't seem very plausible at all. >_> Edit: 4/14 now! <_< --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Here's a good place to try to rally Teemo: http://forums.na.leagueoflegends.com/board/forumdisplay.php?f=2 --- Fortune favors the bold. -Virgil |
No picked 2nd/3rd first time in a few no-picks that it's been the correct choice --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
ExThaNemesis posted... I wouldn't count L-Block out next round, either. Ezio and Auron both underwhelmed in their matches and we don't need reminded about Block's multi-way shenanigans. I thought Auron and Ezio looked fine. L-Block has also been a surprisingly consistent entrant since its 2007 run. Unless people decide to rally around it again for some reason, Auron should have that one in the bag. Keep in mind that while Auron got 60% on Ocelot and Ezio got 60% on Tails, L-Block got 60% on Isaac in 2010. --- http://img.imgcake.com/tumblrmb8ky9zpsk1qd3518o8250gifyd.gif http://img.imgcake.com/tumblrmb8ky9zpsk1qd3518o6250gifuv.gif |
5119 lead now! Jak's was 1943, hahahaha |
Ezio
looked fine but Auron underwhelmed. L-Block will stand out like crazy
next round and New Square in general hasn't done well, so I think it's
fair to keep the block upset possibility open. It won't lead to anything
too scary, though; Samus will just roll through the next round anyway. --- http://i.imgur.com/a4GuDV3.gif |
