Clearly you need gold to buy a deathcap to CC your opponents with.

Because the best CC is death.

"Death" = x ; "the best cc" = y

"Death" is "the best cc" "Death" = "the best cc" x = y y = x "the best cc" = "Death" "the best cc" is "Death" the best cc is Death

Except that x != y in this case. They are two very distinct strings. >.>

This would make a lot more sense: "Death" = x "is" = y "the best cc" = z x + y + z = z + y + x

But that would just be a mathematical fallacy anyway. Just like... a = b Multiply by a a^2 = ab Substract b^2 a^2 - b^2 = ab - b^2 Factor both side (a - b)(a + b) = b(a - b) Divide out (a - b) a + b = b Replace a by b since a = b b + b = b Combine 2b = b Divide by b 2 = 1

Or rather, simply not a mathematical thing at all since we are manipulating strings and not integers.

You know what an equation is also called?

An identity. The identity of something is what it is the synonymous of. = equals is. = is equals. is = equals.

You are correct if you are thinking like a computer. If you look at the variable based on their ideas rather than the words themselves, they are equivalent in the context of this argument.

Think of it this way, just as Sacramento is the capital of California, the capital of California is Sacramento. The words "Sacramento" and "the capital of California" are not the same, but the place they are referring to is.

Similarly, "Death" and "the best cc" are referring to the same thing. In this way, "Death" = "the best cc"

Edit: You could also think of it like this: int num1 = 5; int num2 = 5;

In this case, num1 = num2 even though "num1" != "num2"

you just wrote a to the power of 2. not a*2. your math is all wrong too.

The unintelligent gradeschool level math joke gets upvotes you implement a deeper thinking joke and get downvoted.

the math equivalent of "it is because i say so"

Votable Jester1 votes

Not at all. It's simple math. If a = b, then b must = a. The word "is" can effectively replace/be replaced by the symbol "=".

I even showed each step (though I admit that I did not properly explain what made each step legal). If I had explained each step in full though, it would be beyond boring. After all, how many people want to read a full proof in the memes section of the LoL boards?

Gimpy891 votes

here is where you state your conclusion: "Death" is "the best cc"

the rest is just the symmetric property of equality.

I would also argue that = doesn't represent the word "is" as well as ⊆ does since in language "is" is not symmetric.

Votable Jester1 votes

lol I actually only just learned about that symbol ~ an hour after my original comment. xD

With my current knowledge, I'd still argue that "=" is more similar to "is" than "⊆" is. Though I do admit my knowledge in that are remains extremely limited.

Gimpy891 votes

When you say A is B you imply that A is a subset of B . Is means "to be" in the 3rd person singular present tense form (a copula) and this is not an equivalence at all.

For example: "5 is a number" or "Joe is bronze"

5 is a subset of all numbers and Joe is a subset of bronze players. This is all ⊆ says.

If you use "=" then by the symmetric property of equality you are also saying "a number is 5" and "bronze is Joe" which isn't true since all numbers aren't 5 and a bronze player isn't necessarily Joe.

Votable Jester2 votes

Yes, but we were saying "the best cc" which would refer to a singular cc, so it isn't as though we are picking one number out of all of them or one player out of a section.

Captain Aishi2 votes

I told my friend who wanted to learn support lux that his first item should be mejais, then he could finish sightstone then we played 4 games of it together and he averaged 17 stacks (back when the cap was 20)

I was half-joking when I told him to do it, but in the end it was super effective!

Except it's a feast or famine strategy that any decent jungler will abuse with ganks.

If the enemy jungler puts all his resources into shutting down the support I don't think it will be worth it in the end.

Shutting down bot lane* have fun fighting that fed Jhin while you're 0/4 Lux does 200 damage with her ult.

SwaggyMcGhee4203 votes

If camping the bot lane reliably shut down both the adc and the support then people would do it every game.

General Esdeath 7 votes

If no support ever built sightstone or had any ward coverage they gladly would.

Wizardavar1 votes

Mejais isnt that expensive, even now. Yeah, sure the support would get punished for it, but it isnt that hard to get 800 gold, even as a sup.

General Esdeath 1 votes

That's Dark Seal, want that? Go ahead. But don't waste the mejai gold when you're behind.

Oakleaf Ranger7 votes

So most these Mage "supports" become useless unless they get ahead because their utility isn't good enough mid to late game compared real supports but don't have the items/levels to make up for it in damage. Zyra probably being the expection but she pays for it for by being immobile and extra squishy.

Decrit2 votes

Well, it depends. In some cases is a good choice, usually with those champions that can be very safe like Janna and Morgana.

I Am Luxanna4 votes

thing is, we lux mains will buy mejais even if we are behind because if our team understands how to group and teamfight, we dont die. Even if we go 0/4 in lane, we'll end game like 9/5/13..

You got a item 2049 or item 3092 first?

tbh dont play lux supp much anymore, but sightstone is built during fqc.

My supp morgana yesterday told me she would stop supporting me if i didnt give her CS even though she had frostfang. Then during laning phase all she ever did was try and pick kills and left me to die several times while she was trying to last hit the enemy.

We lost that game pretty fast and she made sure to tell me she thought it was my fault.

What the hell IS that Morgana build!? I looked up the match you were referring to and...Edge, Mobility Boots, Liandry and Rabadon.

No Sightstone, no Frostqueen's Claim, no Zhonya/Abyssal/CDR at all. Nothing.

1 Bronzgana detected indeed. :/

Friendly Ram8 votes

So many times. How can people still not know what the support items do.

PaladinNO2 votes

Beats me - more often than not, I won't even be given the Siege minion, despite the heal (if necessary) PLUS gold share. I mean, really!?

Even with 2-3 charges, I may get a caster minion, but otherwise just a big fuck you from the ADC.

Primary reason why I stopped playing tanky supports. I don't get the Relic items even in ARAM anymore, as the Coin series is usually just as profitable.

Supreme Senpai691 votes

Same. Plus even if the ADC lets you use it, after laning ends it's useless. People just do not let you use it.

PaladinNO1 votes

Another reason why I stick to my AP Lulu up top - her ultimate has roughly the same effect as the FOTM active. ...Plus details such as being a "heal"/have a knockup/give AoE MS debuff, and most importantly all without the hassle of going through a laning phase with a potentially self-centered ADC.

I call that a win-win for me. ^^
