NA vs EUW

Cait Main·12/3/2018, 6:52:36 AM·7 votes·6,923 views

I accidentally stumbled upon the EUW boards and one thing I noticed is THEY DON'T JUST REPEAT POST ABOUT HOW TERRIBLE THE GAME IS.

I am not saying that EUW players don't hate the game state but they use their boards for constructive comments more so. Over here we just have constant posts about how "S4 was soo much better" and "This game is soo bad now." I don't see a reason for a rioter to ever be on these boards unless they are literally required with how hive-minded the NA boards are.

Its like we spend more time complaining about the game rather than trying to innovate solutions for our problems. Damage is too high but that doesn't mean you have to skip that GA or QSS on jinx. Maybe in some games getting a zhonyas on a sion is better because it gives that guaranteed survivability. Frozen mallet on a marksmen might be playable. These solutions may all be absolutely terrible but its better than queueing up for a game, gettting 1 shot by an assassin, then going to the boards and complaining about damage.

If all else fails, you aren't required to play League of Legends. Actions speak louder than words so maybe its time for you to hang up the towel.

Sadly we don't get visited by Rioters, seems like our board is the small, deformed bastard (In german it sounds not that aggressive, uneheliches Kind). :c

Euw doesnt have these people going to 4chan and reddit to come and post the one players problems to spam the boards. My advice... dont bring attention to it over there unless you want those boards to get flooded by the jerks who think spamming and being a jerk is the only way to solve a problem.

NA players not adapting? I could have learned this lesson in a single solo queue game.

For real though, I think this region has a lot of issues with adapting to changes

Well hardly anyone posts on EU boards compared to here, there isn't enough people there to create an echo chamber. I don't even remember the last time i posted on it.

zhonyas on a sion is better because it gives that guaranteed survivability

In which world does a sion wants to evade dmg, provided he is a tank? Like seriously now, thats borderline troll even for a lethality sion who is squishy.

Good luck getting to some of those items.

euw is too busy spamming how broken their server is.. (3 days in a row btws)

we are the normal ones ;)

that aside, we are just waaaay fewer so such topics rarely snowball out of control.. save for things like Neeko's meaning in an Arabic dialect spoken in Egypt ("f... him") which.. sadly, didn't get absolutely any comments from rito '-.- i hope they did put a regional name like Niko or etc though.. else, i am not sure how much you know about the muslim culture in NA, however they are quite strict about stuff alike..

in such cases yeah we can be quite vocal as well.. sadly, again, precisely zero (0) rito comments.. though i am certain the support page was flooded by tickets.. so it couldn't have been ignored :d

now i know this goes a bit off the rules, but.. i just have to note it, for.. it is just..

see, you have two, quite important things which we don't:

- community (more people, no matter if it is flamers or not) to keep the place alive

- and.. mods. And.. www...ell..... let's just say there are some things that aren't ...exactly the best around there. (plus, you have way more of this kind here)

i will even go a bit further to tell you.. we pretty much player-banned one (he hasnt posted in nearly a month) who.. went too far. (which is sad btw.. yet he made his choice!) and, the whole realm knows why.. it is not a secret.

I would expect that It is largely a product of NA boards having a higher traffic than EUW boards.

At the time of posting this the EUW "Champions & Gameplay" section has 10 posts from the last 24 hours and the highest viewd thread is 1.8K. NA on the other hand as several pages of threads in the past 24 hours and the highest for views for today has 5.6K. Although there are a couple things in NA's Hot section that say "a day ago" and have over 10K views.

With so many people the only things that can reach the front page are things with mass appeal or that are cheesed through the system with planned posting and voting surges. Things with mass appeal are going to be incredibly basic and usually negative, and things cheesed through the system are going to be incredibly biased.

These solutions may all be absolutely terrible but its better than queueing up for a game, gettting 1 shot by an assassin, then going to the boards and complaining about damage.

To be fair, terrible solutions may still leave you getting 1 shot by an assassin with the added caveat of getting flamed by your team for having a troll build.
