i think it has to do a bit with several factors, including amount of work like when you have a math worksheet worth 1% of your grade and a 5page essay that's worth 25% of another grade. the 5p essay is obviously more important and necessary but you can hammer out the math homework in 20 minutes so you do that first

Just took VU Garen for a spin.
Thoughts: -Decisive strike feels better. I like hitting people, hitting Q, and then seeing Garen do a pale imitation of the Noxian Guillotine on an enemy. Feels good and makes me smile. -No comment on the W -Personally I think his Judgement feels better now, but what bugs me is that the animation of his sword swinging doesn't actually match the hit-box of judgement. -I feel like something will explode when I use his ult. It feels so powerful. I like it. -New dance is amazing -I like his new joke as well -His loading portrait looks weird to me. Like, why are we getting an upper body shot? I would have expected a full body shot or something. I mean, I know not all champions have a full body shot, but with Garen it just feels like... weird. I think its mostly that his whole body fills practically the entire frame. I don't know if anyone knows what I'm talking about, but maybe you do.

Other than that the rework was fantastic I think.

I think that in addition to the amount of VU work involved there are four other factors going into a champ VU:
- How badly does this champion need the rework? (triangle boot syndrome)
- Is this champ also getting an ability rework at the same time? (coordination can mean pushing it back or bringing it forward compared to other champs)
- Is this champ popular? (why remake Poppy when .001% of people like her and won't buy enough skins?)
- What unexpected workflow issues come up during development that delay everything? (replays HUEHUEHUEHUE)
I think Sivir probably just wasn't popular enough compared to the other champs, it's hard to compete with stuff like swordboots especially when he also suffers from triangle-foot.

PX I don't even know what to say about you just did. Aside from thank you?
You know very well that use of the word 'literally' is colloquially used as hyperbole these days. (Although funnily enough your latest post proves my point somewhat )
You're obviously right that your latest page of posts are not all argumentative. If you'd like I can go back and find some posts and quote them if you REALLY want to see what I mean.

Especially when it comes after people start personally attacking me instead of talking about the topic, like gahlo did. And yeah trying to defend myself against your post will always come as an argument. but people understand that and look the other way when it comes to these things, otherwise every argument ends with one person saying "you only argue when you are wrong". since you can't disprove that without "admitting" you are wrong.

But turning around a gank? How She Counter gank better than an Udyr/Zac/Aatrox/Maokai/Rammus/Vi/J4/LS/Amummu? I mean sure, great she heals you and shreds your armor... but I'd much rather just CC other team under your tower and kill them rather than just kind of run with them while they over extended.
I dont think Soraka can keep them there long enough to kill them in a counter gank. I dont think Soraka shines in 2v2's, 3v3 and teamfighst yes, but small skirmishes I'd rather just have the CC in a small fight. I dunno, in 2v2 where two enemy champs have CC Soraka just get locked down and killed and it lulz.

Maybe it's just that you think differently from other people or something? For example the Harley Quinn thing (I think you got warned for?). I don't think anyone at all shared your point of view and yet you continued to push it. There's probably a reason why people disagreed with you (and I want to say that people gave enough reasoning as to why) but you don't ever change your mind or back down in the face of overwhelming evidence. I don't know what else to say on the topic honestly.
