Haha a thread titled:

"Draven is cool"

With the text: "he is a cool champion"

just got deleted, even with no mention of the poll or anything.

Mods are on a rampage.

I'm guessing most of the hardcore LoL fanbois were eagerly sitting at their computers for hours on end to be the first to vote for the latest in a long line of over-priced, overpowered, pay-to-win heroes that Riot has **** out. Without rally topics, Draven should fall off fairly quickly.


Could you not post for the entirety of today? Pretty sure your whining was used as representative of the entire board during Ryu/MMX/Draven.


I think it's kind of cute how he shames all of b8 by not even knowing what pay-to-win means or how LoL works


I played LoL until level 30 and I got my Dota 2 beta key. I understand full well that every new hero Riot releases is extremely unbalanced and overpowered, to trick their preteen fanbois into spending their parent's allowance on this week's generic McHero. On top of that, you can spend real money to buy Runes to give you statboosts. If that's not the very definition of pay-to-win, I don't know what is.

I said he wouldn't have faced anyone substantial until the end, the last match! By that point, it depends, but still, joke win regardless! MM is the best choice here, but if not him p, then it may as well be Draven.

Snake gets two Pokemon this round and very possibly two more in the finals (look at what Mewtwo is doing to Sephiroth and tell me that Red can't dispatch Samus with ease). Either way, if Draven flubs this, he gets two non-Link Nintendo characters in the finals and Mewtwo will need to wield an SFF hammer that would make Link himself quiver with fear to have any chance.

Everyone can win at this stage going forward with the exception of Sephiroth. Everyone.

I'm including Pikachu and Squirtle in that. There's no reason if one can SFF the other that they can't get enough outside rallying to contend with Snake. Certainly the longest shot, but everyone's in it!

Except all runes can be bought with completely free IP, and anyone with a brain uses IP for everything that isn't skins.

A large number of champions were completely useless on release. Riot is bad at balancing, but it's not always on the side of overpowered.

-Gets Draven to lose
-Ends up correct about Draven not being a lock to win

Still like 270 updates left. Long way to go. Not getting my hopes up.

And I'll take any Solid Snake win I can get: I've never had a winner in one of these things I actually like, unless you count L-Block and that's sort of a stretch. But supercharged Mewtwo? Supercharged Megaman? Samus? Snake still has his work cut out.

I wouldn't say Snake is a guarantee, because I doubt he's much, if any, stronger than MM and Samus, not even to mention Mewtwo. But he's had a super soft path all contest and if he does end up winning, it'd be through LFF if Draven loses. Joke win!

The worst part about Mewtwo not getting buried in Round 2 is that Chester now looks marginally stronger.

oh man, is there any chance now that Chester won't end up in the bottom of the stats?


Chance?

Mega Man finally overcame the Zero LFF. he has fallen to this for YEARS. and now he fought Charizard. he's SOMEWHERE up there in the Pokemon chains, but who knows what it is. Mewtwo and Squirtle seem to have stolen all his strength while Pikachu sits above 'em all. but Charizard lost.

you cannot say Mega Man hasn't earned your support, blazer!
and from the sounds of it... it seems like people are starting TO BELIEVE.
