GGY Week day 5: Rabbit, Supernatural

WERERABBIT GREGORY!!! Of course based off of my rab design.

in this scenario i think gregory would be a cursed human instead of just being born a werebunny, but he would transform instead of poofing from human to rabbit. he also can’t really control himself as the werebunny and may hurt someone, which of course is also based off of rab. it’s why he tries to keep it a secret from everyone and stay away from them when the full moon is near so he doesn’t hurt his friends (tony ellis and cassie)

his wererabbit form is basically the same size as his human form which is why he keeps his clothes. they don’t get ripped or stretched or anything, but if he isn’t able to prepare himself for transforming his shoes and socks would suffer plus any accessories like his watch

and naturally in a scenario like this, tony immediately notices something up with gregory when he’s the new kid and that’s why he gravitates towards him and they become friends. he catches onto things more and more but of course never actually considers the truth like every mystery he tries to solve. tony corners Gregory in the library coincidentally during a full moon one night and well.... he and ellis get into some trouble (think luz and king vs the owl beasts first transformation)

and although this au wasn’t exactly inspired by @dykevanny’s werebunny au it feels wrong not to credit him!! its is epic!! go check it out!!

Behind the Screen - (Part 4)

Pairing: Bucky x Reader

Word Count: 3,437

Warnings: 18+ here be smutty times

Author’s Note: So i thought i had put this to be queued yesterday but apparently i did it wrong, i apologize for the day delay.Hopefully the contents in this chapter will makeup for it! As always the tag-list for this series is open so if you’d like to be added just let me know! Thank you all so much for reading and enjoying my work, there’s nothing that means more to me!

Part 3 / SERIES MASTERLIST

“Barnes,” you moaned, “I swear to god if you show me another fic, that is more than three parts I may just scratch my eyes out”

Bucky turned to look at you from where he was laying on his stomach computer screen illuminating his features, “I thought you liked doing this, do you not?” he questioned brow raised.

“of course, I love to do this, but not when you’re here, you’re literally reciting porn written about you to me as if it’s the daily news,” you deadpanned, “you have gone through two masterlists, two, you know this isn’t exactly what I thought you meant by catch up,” you muttered side eyeing him.

You saw Bucky’s lips twitch as a smirk tugged at the corner of his mouth, he pushed your laptop off to the side, his arm sliding around your bare waist, “oh,” he grinned, “and what is it that you thought I meant?” he questioned drawing your body closer to his.

“definitely not reading your best rated porn without plot one-shots about you,” you muttered, though there was a teasing underlying to your tone.

“is it because you can’t get off?” he teased, “rub one off to the thought of me,”

You rolled your eyes smacking his chest lightly, “If I wanted to get off I could very well do so if pleased, but why use my finger’s when I could use something else,”

A growl left Bucky’s lips as he pushed himself up onto his arms, his body sliding over yours, hips pressing yours into the sheets below you.

“Look at you doll, a needy little thing” He murmured his finger running over your cheek, eyes staring intently at yours. He leans down slowly his lips hovering above yours for a second before his teeth are nipping at your lower lip, his tongue smoothing over the bite. Your body is squirming under his ever so slightly, your lower half searching for his. The hand that isn't by your head slides down the length of` your body curving over your hips, his hand pushing you down. A groan slips past your lips, Bucky grins his lips molding to yours. Your hips are eager to feel him against you as you push against his left hand, his lips leave yours pulling a whine from you, “if you don’t stop moving, I’m going to stop,” he warns, your hips still. He’s chuckling low before his lips are leaning down once more to cover yours, your lips are moving fervently against one another, Bucky drawing the sweetest noises from you, he’s grown addicted to the little mewls he’s able to pull from you. He pulls away from your lips, head nudging yours to the side exposing your neck to him.

He wastes no time as he licks, sucks, and bites across the sensitive skin till his teeth find that sweet spot, the one that has a low moan falling from your lips, back arching, toes curling. He grins into your skin before continuing the ministration, the hand that holds down your hip is now sliding to the side, cooling down your heated skin. A loud gasp falls from your lips as his left hand roughly cups your mound, his index finger runs over your slit, the moans he’s drawing from you are scandalous, he thought the noises he was driving from you before were something, but these noises, oh these were delicious. You can feel his hard cock against your thigh, and that only makes your skin grow hotter, you need him inside you, you need to feel the thickness of it through your walls as you clench around him.

His finger finally slips into the heat of your folds, his finger dipping in slightly to your entrance before its trailing up circling your throbbing clit. Bucky drinks in the breathy moan that spills from your lips his tongue licking it from your mouth. He gives you a few rubs before his finger is trailing back down your slick, finger teasing your entrance before he’s pushing it into the knuckle working it inside of you. Your head pushes into the pillow beneath your head, soft moans falling from you lips. Bucky's working in a second finger when the sound of your phone vibrating startles you both, you look to your night stand eyes wide. Your tempted to let it go to voicemail, “answer it,” Bucky murmurs against the skin of your jaw.

A whine leaves your lips as you reach over the best that you can with Bucky still on you. You look at the vibrating device, Sam’s name staring back at you, “can’t I just let it go to voicemail,” you whine. Bucky shakes his head, “answer it” he murmurs fingers thrusting tentatively. You groan answering the call bringing the phone to your ear, “this better be good Wilson,”

Your breath is catching in your throat but it's not due to Sam’s infectious laugh in reply to your grumbling answer, oh no, rather its due to Bucky’s thumb currently circling your sensitive clit.

“You know for you being gone a week I thought you’d be happier to hear from me, I'm beginning to think you’ve been spending too much time with tin man,”

You bit your tongue to keep the moan from spilling out as Bucky thrusted his fingers within you, “You have no idea,” you grounded out glaring at Bucky.

He gave you his best Cheshire grin, his thumb gliding over your clit causing a gasp to fall from your lips, “Uh you okay y/n?” Sam questioned.

You coughed clearing your throat, “yeah I'm fine Sam, thought I saw something on the bathroom floor is all, so what has you calling me Wilson?” you questioned needing to hurry this call up.

“we’re all heading out to the bar tonight, in like ten maybe fifteen minutes tops if you’re up for it.”

You went to answer but Bucky beat you to it, “yeah we’re up for it,” he called out, your eyes widened in horror.

“Was that Barnes?” Sam questioned the laugh evident in his voice.

“Yeah he’s a little obsessed with me,” you ground out, smacking at his chest.

Sam barked out a laugh, “we’ll see you in fifteen Wilson, Barnes has to help me with something and then we’ll be down.” You didn’t wait for his reply as you hung up the call, flinging the phone to the side.

Your hips roll against his hand, a low laugh falling from Bucky’s lip as he continues to work his fingers into you, “can't believe you hung up on Wilson sweetheart,” he chuckled his teeth nipping at your jaw.

You aren’t able to give him the remark that sits on your tongue as he draws a low moan from you his fingers scissoring inside of you curling against that toe-curling spot.

“Fu- fuck bucky,” you moan hand curling around his wrist that's finger deep inside of you.

“you’re so wet doll, does it feel good, you like having my fingers fucking you like this?” he questioned breathily.

You nod your head not finding the words through the moans he’s drawing from you.

“Use your words angel, am I making you feel good?”

“Yes,” you moan, “ohh god yes please don’t stop,” you begged your body writhing beneath him as he brought you closer to that sweet release.

You could feel that sweet release building, your body teetering on the edge of a delicious orgasm.

You were so close, almost there, almost, a loud whine was leaving your lips as Bucky pulled his finger from you, his body sliding off yours.

“Bucky,” you moaned.

He chuckled lowly from where he stood at the side of your bed, “ten minutes till we’re supposed to meet the team downstairs doll,” he grinned putting on the clothes he had discarded hours ago.

You gaped at him as you watched him head towards the door, “I’ll see you downstairs sweetheart, you might want to get dressed don’t want to keep them waiting,” he grinned throwing you a wink before he was slipping out of your room.

Your head flew back into your pillow a loud groan leaving your lips at the unsatisfied ached between your legs.

“So you going to tell me what Tin man was helping you with before I called?” Sam grinned cheekily eyes twinkling in the low light of the bar. You rolled your eyes but smiled behind the glass of whiskey in your hand, “he was just checking up on me, pretty sure you heard the mission went south,” you murmured taking a sip from your glass

Sam nodded taking a sip himself, “yeah Steve briefed me on it, you okay?” He questioned.

You shrugged your shoulders, “as okay as anyone can be,” you smiled.

You and Sam kept up the small talk at the high top table the team had chosen, though the others had left you long ago for the darkened corner of the bar where the pool tables sat lined up.

“You wanna go shoot pool with the others?” Sam questioned throwing back the last of his drink, you mirrored his actions.

“Sure, I love watching Natasha slaughter Barnes and Rogers,” you grinned grabbing his extended hand as he pulled you towards the team. You got there just in time to see Natasha grinning cheekily, Steve throwing his head back in defeat a heavy sigh falling from his lips. “See,” you said smackin Sam’s chest, “we got here just in time to see them get their asses handed to them, though I don’t think Steve needs anymore,” you grinned throwing Steve a wink. A laugh fell from your lips at the sight of Steve’s cheeks taking on a pink hue, “Awe Steve,” you cooed.

“you know y/n you’re a lot of talk for someone who never play’s pool when we come out, pretty sure you could get your ass handed to you too,” Bucky spoke up from where he stood on the other side of the pool table, leaning on the pool stick.

“pick on someone your own size Barnes, don’t be a sore loser,” you teased.

“oh come on y/n, Bucky has a point you never play pool,” Steve added in his eyes glinting in amusement.

You groaned, “if I play one game will you guys stop picking on me?” you questioned arms crossed.

Bucky perked up, “i’ll show you the ropes doll,”

You shook your head a laugh falling from your lips, “I think I'd rather have Nat teach me,”

“I think Natasha's a little preoccupied with schooling Sam, so whaddya say doll?”

“as long as you show me the ropes,”

“oh don’t worry sweetheart,” he spoke voice dropping low as he came behind you, “I'll show you everything I know.

You’re wound tight and he’s not even touching you, at least not in the way you need him to. Your skin is glistening with sweat under the lowlight of the bar, he sidles up behind you, his voice ghosts over your ear, “your turn,” the word alone has shivers running down your spine, you’re not sure you want to go again.

With shaky hands you get into position, you can hear his tongue clicking behind you, his left hand runs down the back of your relaxed fit dress, pushing you down lower to the table, his right hand obstructed from the view of any onlookers climbs up your thigh till its nestled in the warmth of your legs, his hand cupping your mound, “you’ve got to master your stroke,” he instructs, his index finger stroking you through your dampened panties. You bite back a moan that climbs up your throat, “during your practice strokes,” he murmurs into your ear his index finger circling your aching clit, “your eyes should switch from the contact point on the cue ball to the point you’re aiming for on the object ball,”

Your hair catches on your damp forehead obscuring how your mouth drops open slightly in pleasure, your so close. He had been winding you up just like this every time it was your turn, it looked innocent to the eye of anyone who might look your way it was anything but innocent underneath. His fingers are working you over faster, you’re trying to focus on the task at hand but your mind can do nothing but focus on the immense pleasure he’s bringing you.

“Now,” he speaks up bringing you back from your pleasurable haze, “line up the pool tip,” he presses his clothed erection against your backside, grinding ever so slightly, “up with the cue ball, aim” he murmurs flicking your clit, “and hit, away,” just as you’re about to push over the edge he stops all movement, a pained gasp leaves your lips as he retracts his hands from you panties, rubbing your slick on your thigh.

“darn doll, you were so close,”

You turn on wobbly legs to glare at him, “I've had enough, I don’t want to play this stupid game” you ground out, “I'll be right back,” you mutter pulling away from the pool tables. You can hear him chuckle lowly behind you. You pass Natasha on your way to the restroom to hopefully freshen up your heated skin, “you alright y/n you look like you’ve just run a marathon,” she grins.

You groan but let a laugh slip past your lips, “Barnes is just really making it hard for me to get the hang of pool, he's working me up only to let me down at the last second,”

Natasha patted your shoulder, “you’ll get there, before long you’ll be handing his ass to him,” she teased pulling a grin from you, “we’re ready to call it a night, would you like us to wait for you?” she questioned.

“You guys can go ahead, I still need to get my tab after I freshen up,” you responded pushing back your sweat slicked hair.

“You sure?” she asked, “i can get one of the guys to wait for you,”

You shook your head, “it’s fine really Nat, you guys can go ahead, I shouldn’t be too far behind you guys.”

“only if you're sure,” she replied.

“positive,” you smiled.

You waved at her as you walked towards the restroom desperately needing to wet your heated skin, and maybe wipe away at the slick that had accumulated on your lace panties, it was beginning to grow uncomfortable.

You walked into the one stall restroom not bothering to lock the restroom door behind you as you wouldn’t be taking long. Staring into the grimy mirror you turned on the tap, running your fingers in the cool water. You ran your damp fingers over your face feeling instantly cooled, though it was doing nothing for the throbbing ache between your legs. Your patting your face down with a napkin when the door is swinging open, you turn toward it wide eyed to see Bucky walking in, “what the hell Bucky, I thought you left with the team,” you said your hand reaching up to feel your racing heart.

He didn’t reply as he gave you’re his back, a almost inaudible click resonated through the dingy restroom, “Uh buck, what are you,” you paused watching him closely, “what are you doing?”

He turned to face you then his eyes clouded over with lust, you’re barely able to get a word out before he’s closing the distance between the two of you, his lips crashing into yours roughly. It’s a battle of tongue and teeth as he pushes your back up against the wall closest to the sink. You grow dizzy of the feel of his tongue dancing with yours a loud breathy gasp falls from your lips as you both pull away for air, Bucky dropping to his knees. “Buck what-” he’s lifting up your dress, head darting between your legs to bite at your inner thighs. Your head falls back against the tiled wall, fingers webbing into his hair, “You think you’re the only one who’s tired of playing this little game, you think you’re the only one who’s been on edge?” he questions huskily looking up at you through his lashes where his head rests between your legs.

“Barnes what has gotten into you,” you moan when he hoists your leg over his shoulder his warm breath fanning over your dampened lace panties.

“I’ve read through a lot of teasing,” he murmurs running his tongue along your covered folds, “but I've yet to come across someone edging, teasing their partner till they’re falling apart at the seams,” he licks again pressing his tongue in deeper, “and doll,” he whispers eyes catching yours, “you’re bursting,”

Bucky makes quick work of pulling your panties to the side, exposing your slick wet folds to him. He doesn’t waste another second as he leans in burying his face between your legs. His tongue delves in licking, sucking, lapping at your sensitive core. Your head is thrown back in ecstasy, mouth dropped open in a moan as your finger pulls at his long brunette locks. His tongue is working you over trailing up your folds to seek out your clit, he flicks over it once, twice, before he zones in on it, sucking flicking the sweetened little bud.

“Fuck Bucky,” you moan, “please don’t stop, please don’t stop,” you cry.

As soon as those words spill from your mouth, he’s doing just that, a cry falls from your lips as he inches up your body. His lips are finding yours his tongue sliding into your mouth letting you taste yourself on him. Your shaky hands reach down to unbutton his jeans, but they’re not coming undone as quick as you’d like, “Fuck Buck please,” you whine into his mouth.

His hands are taking a hold of yours stalling all movements, he’s looking down at you, eyes hooded with lust, “you’ve made it this far baby, just a little bit longer,” he grinned giving your lips a sweet peck. He holds eye contact with you as he unzips his jeans, pulling himself from the tight confines of his jeans, he lifts your leg onto his hip, his cock splitting through your folds.

You hold your breath as you wait, his tip teasing your entrance, a broken moan falls from your lips as he bottoms out your arms wrap around his shoulders gripping him to you, it only takes a few thrust and your coming undone. Your mouth drops open in a loud moan as your orgasm take you by surprise, your back arches against the wall, bucky wraps his arms tightly around your waist his head burying in your chest as he continues to fuck you through your orgasm. Choked sobs are falling from your lips as your vision blurs, another orgasm washing over you from the pleasure you had been withheld from all evening.

Bucky is biting at the skin of your breast, low grunts falling from his lips and you can swear its music to your post orgasmic ears. You clench around him tightly bringing him to his own end, his warmth spurting deep inside of you.

Your fingers thread into his hair as you pull his lips to yours, swallowing the moans that fall from his lips as he shallowly thrusts into you. Your thighs are quivering in his hold, barely keeping you upright if it hadn’t been for him pinning you to the wall.

Bucky’s head falls to your neck, his breaths coming out labored, you can feel puffs of laughter against your skin. “what?” you questioned a hint of laughter in your own voice.

“this isn’t the way I planned on taking you after all that,” he grinned looking down at you, “didn’t see it going this way.”

“and how did you plan on taking me?” you questioned your cupping his cheek, thumb running over his bottom lip. He’s thinking over his next words, “just not like this," he whispered placing a kiss to your thumb.

For a moment you can feel the energy shift between the two of you, both of you are letting the vulnerable side of you come out, the one you were told not to let cloud this agreement, yet here it was.

You both stand there just staring at one another, your thigh slips from his hip, “you think your reader’s will be excited to read about this?” he questions, and just like that the bubble you were in bursts bringing you back to reality.

You open your mouth to reply but your cut off by loud knocks against the wooden door, “hey y/n, have you seen Barnes?”

Hi guys! I’ve started Patreon!

After years of stalling, I’m finally at the point where I think I’m ready to try this. I love creating and posting free content for you guys, but some of you have expressed interest in supporting me in the past, for which I am infinitely grateful.

I’ve been drawing pretty much full time for over a year now, often spending 10+ hours a day working on art content with rarely a single day of no drawing. I’ve been free loading at home and living off my savings from my previous job, and those savings have about run out. I wish I could just keep drawing and improving my content, but I’m at the point now where I either cut down on drawing time to make money, or find a way to at least partially support myself on art.

I want to keep the majority of my art public and continue posting as I have, and this is by no means an obligation. If viewing, sharing, commenting and supporting me is all you can do right now, I am more than immensely grateful to you. At the same time, if even less than 1% of my followers pledged $1 a month, I’d be able to continue drawing without worrying about money. While again, most of my art will be public, I’ve added additional perks as thank yous to those of you who do decide to support me.

FIRST OFF: What is Patreon? - Patreon is a platform where creators of all sorts can get support from their fans to help continue creating their content. It’s a means of turning art into livable income. The supporters, called patrons, pledge to pay a certain amount every month, and the amount you pledge can vary.

For me, you can pledge as little as $1 a month, and it will help so much because it can really add up! Each “Tier” of pledges, which are determined by the amount of support you give me, come with different perks (they all build up, so you get all lower tier perks too!), my way of saying thank you for supporting me. Think of these less as you’re buying this content, and more as you like my art and want to support me, and these are bonuses. You may of course upgrade, downgrade, or stop pledging the next month.

I’m new to this platform and am still learning how to use it, and for now I’ve put some sample content on there. I have a ton queued and it’ll be updating faster than any of my other social media because I have a lot of content queued up. I have a surprising amount of content that I haven’t shared and never planned on posting publicly, and this is definitely a place to dump all of that (including nsfw LOL).

I don’t want to be a financial burden on anyone, but if anyone would be interested in supporting my work and seeing me continue to produce art, I would appreciate your support so much. Please check it out! ^ ^

MY PATREON HERE.

A more detailed description of all of my Tiers and their perks listed below the cut, but also viewable on my Patreon itself.

More detailed descriptions of tier rewards

Thanks so much for considering becoming my patron! I tried to be as descriptive as possible while remaining concise in describing the rewards for the tiers, but here's a more detailed rundown.

Access to my much higher resolution, less watermarked versions of my comics.They will still have my url on the side, but it will no longer obscure the images. As you may or may not know, I've had a LOT of problems with art theft and am especially protective of my comics I hope to one day sell hard copies of. I trust you to protect my work, and grant you advance access to these HQ images. They'll be sent to you in a link at the beginning of the following month.

Early access to unreleased concept art of my AUs such as costume designs and world building for the Inferno AU and Future!Verse ABO AU. These may or may not ever be available to the public, but either way you'll be able to view them way in advance!

Submit as many requests as you want to the monthly request pool to up your chances of yours being chosen!

Get first notification when new merchandise is available in my store. Many of these items will be available in EXTREMELY limited quantities (single digits) and will likely take a long time to restock if they ever do at all. Get your hands on them before they're available to the public! They'll be available to lower Tiers in order after this Tier.

[horistans]

hello friends uwu it’s been some time!

Been filling up the queue every once in awhile and I’ve updated the blog’s theme! Please feel free to take a look at it! I am using a glenthemes theme.

I am still in the process of updating everything (such as adding announcements, properly making a change log, etc)

It’s quite an unceremonious return, but I can’t wait to share stuff with you all again!! 

I might be asking for feedback on this blog (specifically in regards to tagging) if that’s okay. If you have any suggestions for me, I’d love to hear them! The interface hasn’t seemed to change TOO much since I left, but with the new characters, I’m wondering if I should change the tags again...

If you’re interested, keep reading to get details on what I have done so far and what I’ve been up to during my hiatus!

On the desktop theme, I’m planning on keeping a similar format! With links on the side to where you can read GSNK, the taglist, and my fanfics. I intend on updating the announcements page for important dates (when gsnk ch are released on GanGan, when the most recent CMC chapter was released, character birthdays, etc). The News container will later be updated to contain blog changes (so, a change log) at some point.

I removed the submissions feature on this blog, since it was never used!

I’ve already updated the About page and was surprised to be reminded of the original intent of this blog! It won’t be happening anytime soon, but if we can host more events in the future, I think it would be very fun.

When I read the old About, I was reminded the original purpose of horisexual was actually to host fanfic competitions! Your love and engagement with my old fics made me really nostalgic, and a few on the GSNK discord convinced me to jump back into tumblr. I am glad that everyone is still so friendly and nice!

Re: the submissions feature (mentioned above), if we ever get to a point where we host a fanfic contest, I will likely be using the submissions as the way to submit.

(Speaking of events, will you be participating in GSNK Week? I’ve planned out what I want to draw already and I’m super excited~~)

I have also updated my Fanfics page using code from namjooneh but will continue to work on it so it fits horisexual better. I might have implemented this new format, but the filters don’t seem to work, so I’ve already found a backup that I just need to enter the fic information into.

You may also note that none of the long chapter fics are in there (except for one) because I’ve only decided to rewrite one of them (for now! We’ll see where that motivation goes, haha)

That being said, are there any ways you would like the fics to be filtered? I don’t believe the new format has a filter system, but it would be nice to know what information you would like me to add to the blurbs and previews!

As for an explanation for my hiatus:

I was receiving a lot of hate on my personal blog around mid-2016. A lot of the attacks were about information I overshared, which as a minor, I should have been more mindful of. I am ashamed of how I acted back then (refusing to simply ignore/block and instead kept responding && the information that I was freely giving out), but I’d like to think I’ve healed a lot since then. I have since went in, deleted all my posts on my personal blog from 2016, deleted the few remaining hate messages still in my inbox from that time, and am ready to start again.

What I’ve been up to:

In the past 4 years, I’ve been attending university within my state! Our GameDev program is apparently one of the best programs nationally, but no one seems to know that outside of our university (we were told to put it on our resume and bring it up in cover letters haha) so it’s a bit weird to talk about. I have made some games! This is a link to my portfolio if you want to know a little about them.

I’ve also started a ko-fi page! I used to be a dual major until recently, so I am taking an extra semester (plus this summer semester) to finish up my credits as I graduate. Graduating later than 4 years isn’t a big deal, but it’s very hard financially. Student loans are no longer willing to help support me, I will be a part-time student in the fall (little to no financial aid), and I’ve been barely been able to support myself as of late since my job assigned me on a project with a $2 pay cut from my regular rate.

I also got accepted into an internship program in Japan! As mentioned before, financing the rest of my tuition is hard enough, and now I need to be able to afford my plane ticket, the program fees and living expenses. I am currently studying Japanese for the N3 certification, but we’ll see how that goes (I’m going to stay hopeful!! I still have time!!)

If you want to know more about Ko-fi and the program I’m doing, I made a YT video a month ago. It also briefly explains why I find this internship so important to my professional development. If you have the time, resources, and would like to support me, I would greatly appreciate it! I even have a sticker club reward for monthly supporters, and a portion of those sales goes to Project COVID-19, a fundraising project by a few of my colleagues who are raising money to purchase PPE for health facilities nationwide (US). 

I would like to explain more, but covering the past 4 years is a long time (haha)... and you’re here for the GSNK content! I am sure there will be loads of more opportunities to talk about myself (apologies if I do so...) so I will end it here. 

Thank you for being a follower of horisexual for so long. And if you’re new here, welcome!

I am currently taking summer courses and working (remotely), so I do not know how active I will be, but I will definitely return to fill up the queue a few times a week- if not every day. I have a few asks from before I left/received during hiatus. You can still submit prompts to me via ask and I will try to get to them!

If you want to talk I am also on discord ( JamKats#9424) and twitter @/jamkataclysms (note my twitter is mostly art & games). I also have a ko-fi account where I post GSNK fanart sometimes! https://ko-fi.com/jamkats

I hope you have a great day! As a reward for reaching the end of this long post, here’s a recent redraw of one of the gsnk omakes! (from vol 10)

If you’re in the GSNK server, you’ve probably seen it already, so I guess it’s not that good of an award...The other (the first) redraw I did has been queued so it will go up sometime this week!

I spent all night studying, so I’ll probably go to sleep now <3 thank you again :)

Introducing EyeSlick

30 Practical Tips for Making Great Facebook Live Videos (Part 3)

These are Australian times so as you see the top is pretty late for me so I attempt to time mine for late evenings to capitalise on the rise at concerning 10-11pm my time (and also it additionally indicates that the replay is fresh throughout the optimal) and afterwards if I struck it around 9am my time I get the tail end of the peak time.

Those of you lucky sufficient to be living in the zone of your target market-- I envy you!:--RRB-.

5. Attempt a Broadcast right into a Team

I'm yet to attempt broadcasting right into my Facebook group however I believe it 'd definitely be a worthwhile point to do if you possess one as well as wish to actually deepen the link you have with that group.

I have actually seen a variety of group owners do day-to-day video clips to instruct participants of their groups, to run difficulties with their groups and as part of mastermind experiences.

The main challenge of course is that many groups have smaller sized subscriptions which is excellent for affection however you 'd really intend to strive to advertise what time the EyeSlick video clip would happen to try to obtain as lots of members to it as possible.

While we're discussing 'teams'-- you can actually broadcast a real-time video onto a web page that you possess AND a team that you own. As a matter of fact you can have it going online onto multiple pages as well as teams.

The means to do this is to set up your program on your Facebook Web page and afterwards when its live get your web page up on one more gadget and also struck the 'share' web link and then you can share it to your profile, a web page you have admin rights for or a group.

6. Make Sure Your Wi-fi connection is Solid

Facebook will not let you go live until it figures out that you have a strong link which is fantastic-- yet if you have a web link that gets flakey at times you'll want to try to get the greatest signal that you can because you don't want to drop mid video clip.

So find an area where you're near your wifi unit if you can!

If your EyeSlick connection begins to waver you occasionally get a caution mid video clip that you're in threat of dropping out-- this can offer you a little time to relocate where you're at so view to see if you obtain a sharp.

4G has actually also worked well for me when I'm somewhere on location-- nevertheless again this can obtain flakey so examination your signal stamina prior to hand if you can and also know that you'll eat through a great deal of data if you do a lengthy video clip.

7. Pick a Compelling Video Clip Summary

As you'll see in the screenshots above, before you go live you are asked to provide a summary of the video clip. This is really crucial as individuals will choose on whether to view based upon it. It's the equivalent of the headline/title of your blog posts.

You can transform this summary later on after the video clip has actually ended up to make it more appropriate for those enjoying the replay so customize it to bring in online visitors.

I usually make my description include the word LIVE therefore and then look for an advantage for visitors to draw them into viewing.

The Essential Engagement Quiz: How to Make Sure You’re Ready for Marriage

Premature proposals have become somewhat of a trend as of late. First, we had Pete Davidson popping the question to Ariana Grande after just a few weeks of dating. Then, Justin Bieber pulled the same move, putting a great big diamond ring on Hailey Baldwin’s finger. Sure, these two have history, but the “Sorry” singer and former FASHION cover star rekindled their romance only weeks before taking this huge step in their relationship. Everything is happening very fast.

If these early early engagements end with Baldwin and Grande walking down the aisle, what will the marriages look like? Greg Behrendt (author of the romcom classic He’s Just Not That Into You) and his wife, Amiira Ruotola, just dropped a new relationship book that might have the answer. Inside the pages of How to Keep Your Marriage from Sucking, the New York Times best-selling authors share a 24-question engagement quiz that every couple should before making this major commitment towards marriage. Or, you know, before spending a fortune on a sparkly ring. Here’s an excerpt from the book:

***

Here is a quiz for you to take with your mate to get into the sticky bits that can be hard to talk about. Grab a couple sheets of paper and pens and write down your answers. Once you’ve answered each question, share your answers and see if you’re completely in sync or if there’s some talking to do. It’s important that you are honest with yourself and each other on all the big things because if you start this union off withholding your truth, it will cause you nothing but trouble. What you’re going for here is full transparency. Starting a dialogue is more important than being completely matched up on your answers. The conversations you will have on these topics will bring you closer together as a couple and make it more likely that you can overcome any standoffs you might have had otherwise. Talking good. Secrets bad. Lies worse. So, let’s get started with the How to Keep Your Marriage from Sucking Engagement Quiz. Bon appétit!

The Magistrate’s Scepter Ch. 2

(This is a continuation of a chapter by chapter series created by Nicholas A. Fernandez. All attempts to recreate this intellectual property without express permission from the author is prohibited. Enjoy!)

The perfume of cigarette smoke wafted into the air, mixing with the scent of blood and spent cartridges, creating an almost unique smell that could describe what had happened in the compound by itself. Standing outside the compound as body after body was hauled from it, Althea Riley mechanically smoked, pulling the nicotine she needed into her system, calming herself after what she had been forced to do. The weapon on her hip felt like a stranger, and she did her level best to ignore it. She couldn’t quite figure out why it felt so, because she had killed before, but nevertheless it felt like an interloper, an unclean entity that did not fit with the rest of her equipment and clothing.

The events continued to echo through her mind. She felt like there was some sort of celebration she should be having, but she just felt empty inside. Her mind played back Nolan’s last words. 

“My part is played out in this story,” Nolan gasped as his face got slowly whiter from blood loss. Nudging the book with his hand, he looked up at her glassily and smiled. “I always likened you to a seamstress unraveling threads, always picking at my plans trying to get a seam to bust and spill everything out. Well here is your opportunity Althea Riley. Show me how deft you needle is.”

“I can still save you Nolan,” Althea said, grabbing for her radio. His glassy look still in place, he laughed as he reached slowly for the insides of his coat. 

“You fell for it.” Sensing danger, she whipped her pistol out. His hand stopped as she pointed it at him.

“Don’t,” she whispered. His smile widening, his hand dove under his coat. Time seemed to freeze, and her senses extended. Her eyes saw individual rays of sunlight, and the dust particles that danced in them. Her nose smelled the copper smell of blood, her sweat slowly turning into stink in her body armor, and the cologne that Nolan wore. Her ears heard the distant gunfire, explosions, and shouting of soldiers fighting. Her tongue tasted the dryness in the back of her throat, and it felt like she hadn’t drank any liquid for days. Her fingers felt the crease in the trigger, and she gritted her teeth and squeezed.

The government official that had sanctioned this operation sat at a makeshift desk next to her in the courtyard, a trio of aides at his beck and call furiously filing reports, and issuing orders and mandates. So far, no one had been able to get a hold of the central government to confirm that their mission had been completed, and so far it had been discovered that a surprising number of the political leaders not currently in the capital had either vanished or been found dead of various accidents, muggings, or preexisting medical conditions. Althea couldn’t speak for the deputy-general sitting at the desk, but even without what Nolan had given her, she would have been able to spot that there was no coincidence there.

One of the aides approached her as she squashed out her cigarette, holding forward a clipboard with one of the aforementioned reports.

“Ah, Ms. Riley, the Deputy-General asked me to have you sign this statement claiming responsibility for the execution of Nolan DeChaunce so he can issue a public statement letting the nation know.”

Looking at the meticulously dressed man for a moment, she reached for the board, pulling it to herself to read. It gave her a small amount of satisfaction that the aide squirmed impatiently, realizing that she wasn’t going to just sign it immediately and hand it back over. After perusing the contents of the statement, she saw it for what it was. This was basically the Deputy-General giving her the credit for the kill, but taking full credit for the operation, which she had planned alone. It also stated that the war was over with Nolan’s death, and that everyone should look to a brighter future beside him. A power grab, minimizing her efforts and playing up the non-existent efforts of himself. With no small measure of disgust, she tossed the clipboard back to him unsigned.

“Rework the wording on that so that it tells the truth and i’ll sign it. Until then, you let the Deputy-General know that I’ll be at the morgue retrieving my butcher’s bill and deciding our next play, unless he’d like to do that himself.”

She walked through the main gate of the compound, leaving the aide wringing his hands and calling after her in desperation, “Ms. Riley! Ms. Riley!”

The soldiers at the gate snapped to attention as she came through, and an ATV pulled up with a replacement escort, including a very pale, but also alive one-eyed young soldier sitting in the passenger seat with a rifle in his lap. Grunting at the obstinance of a soldier she had ordered to bed rest, she slid in the back seat and was promptly wedged between a pair of soldiers holding high caliber assault weapons and full flak armor. The driver of her ATV fired up his satellite navigation system and queued it to await a verbal destination.

“Atherton City Military Barracks,” she said, speaking in a clear and concise voice.

The driver pressed on the gas pedal, and the soldiers all began looking out of the windows, surveying their surroundings. She pulled out a bloodstained booklet that had been left to her, and flipped to the first page. Looking up to the one-eyed soldier staring out the window, she took a moment to recall his name.

“Moore.”

Stiffening in his seat, he replied, “Ma’am?”

“How’s the eye?”

Keeping his one eye trained out the window, Moore answered in a dry, flat voice. “I think there’s still something in it, I can’t see out of it.”

The rest of the soldiers chuckled at his morbid humor, knowing that any day it could be any of them. Althea didn’t feel like laughing, but she understood enough about soldiers and their morale to be able to accept the stupid jokes. Pursing her lips and glancing at the first name on the list, she continued to speak.

“Well as long as you’re here then, I might as well make you useful. Contact Atherton and let them know we will be coming to their prison to question a certain individual, a Staff Sergeant Robert Williams. I believe he’s being held on murder, sedition, theft, gun trafficking, and treason.”

Grunting the affirmative, Moore started a chain of calls announcing their arrival to the local brass that would be stationed at Atherton.

Althea entered the visiting area of the prison with the journal in her hands, focused on the crew cut prisoner wearing an orange jumpsuit. He was leaned back in his chair, looking at her with an intensity that was somewhat unnerving to her. Keeping her face calm, she approached the table and carefully placed the journal on front of the chair as she pulled it out. If she hadn’t been looking at his face, she would have missed the quick glance to the journal, and the even more slight moistening of his eyes as he recognized it. These telling emotions were off his face in an instant however, and she sat down in the chair across from him. He stared at her for a moment, then looked up at the ceiling. They stayed like this in silence for around fifteen minutes before she broke the silence.

“Staff Sergeant Williams, my name-”

“I know who yeh are,” he broke in roughly in a strong islander accent as she started to introduce herself.

“Furthermoor I know why ye’re here. Get me a fooking cigarette and we’ll have that converse that Mr. DeChaunce ordered me to have with yeh.”

She frowned slightly at this revelation as she dug a cigarette out of her pack and lit it. She then rolled it across the table to him. He pulled his table-cuffed hands up into a protective pocket and caught the smoke, hurriedly shifting it to his mouth. As he grunted in pleasure, she studied his body posture. The intense way he carried himself, and the close-lipped way he presented himself clued her that he held himself like a captured combatant, not a traitor. No, she thought to herself as he savored the nicotine, not a captured combatant, a soldier assigned to a mission. Pursing her lips, she decided to go out on a limb with him.

“So after your mission, do you have an escape plan?” she asked as she lit a cigarette for herself. He let out a surprised laugh in response.

“Mr. DeChaunce said you werna one to be trifled with, and that yeh cut through the shit.” chuckling as he exhaled another hit from the cigarette, he continued. “I tink the words he used was sharp as a tack.”

Nudging the book in front of her after his outburst, she leaned back in her chair.

“I’m assuming you are in this book for a reason Staff Sergeant.”

Looking at it once, he squinted at her through the smoke.

“Oh, aye ma’am I am,” finishing off his cigarette, he put out the butt on the table, carelessly flicking it into the corner of the room. “Yeh might consider me to be the introduction to this narrative,” he continued as he jabbed his finger at the book. Chuckling a bit, he added, “I think Mr. DeChaunce called me the ‘Rosetta Stone’ whatever the fook that is.”

“Wait you’re the key to unlocking why these names are here?” she asked, pulling out her own paper pad and pen.

“No lass,” he said slowly, “I can tell you why they are there.” Shifting his position in the chair, he looked up at her hopefully. “Another cigarette perhaps, to stifle my pipes?” She pulled out the whole pack and slid it across to him. Pulling out a book of matches, she slid those across as well.

“Why are they there,” she asked, trying, and failing to stifle her eagerness.

The sound of match drawing over rough surface, followed by the smell of sulfer, hit her nose as he lit another cigarette. “Those names are chapters in a story.” He said as he puffed contentedly. “I’m the second chapter in the story.” She wrote down what little information he gave her, then looked up at him speculatively.

“There are a LOT of names in here,” she responded.

“Oh aye, ye’re right. Mr. DeChaunce has done so much since yer earlier years that I suspect we’ll never know who he talked to, and who listened in full.” Taking another hit from his cigarette, the older man straightened himself. “What Mr. DeChaunce required of me was a simple task. He wanted me to tell yeh about my childhood here in this great country of ours.” He finished with a sardonic overtone.

“Why would I want to know about your childhood, Staff Sergeant?” She asked incredulously, seriously considering walking out of the prison and not honoring her promise.

“Think what you want Ms. Riley,” he retorted angrily at her dismissive tone. “I’ve been ordered to do a job, and i’m gonna get it done yeh?” Sucking on the cigarette in one deep hit, he glared at her. “If’n the measure of Nolan DeChaunce is what ye’re after, consider that i’m willing to follow orders beyond the grave for that great son-of-a-bitch.”

Shocked at his vehemence, she tried to placate him. “Listen Staff Sergeant Williams, I want you-”

“A pox on what yeh want yeh blind fool,” he growled over her attempt at calming him. “Keep yer mouth shut and listen to what I have to say, or get the fook out and leave me teh rot.” After waiting for her to make any sort of movement, he nodded as if she had answered him. “Okay, what I have to tell you, I cannae validate in any way, but it is true anyways.”

Pulling his bulk out of the chair, he grabbed another cigarette and lit it. “Here’s what happened...”

Bisu FPVOD Analysis

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4xVjn2eQm4

I continue to study Brood War pros...because they were just unparalleled in terms of their execution. The goal is to study these pros, learn their habits, and apply the logic to Starcraft 2, within the capacity of my hands. I do hope to start recording myself...

0:00 - 2:00; Bisu’s spamming habits. Though it does look like this portion is useless, if I know anything about Bisu, this does tell me a lot about how he uses his hands, and more importantly, his hotkeys. StarCraft is all about good habits, and the “button-click, button-click” combo happens a lot in Brood War. You’ll notice that Bisu is constantly spamming “Set Rally Point” on his Nexus, since that’s the only button-click combo possible at that point in time. The goal is to learn the timing, and to be able to do it quickly. How many people do you know that can alternate index fingers on both of their hands that quickly? f.f.f.f.f.f.f.f.f.f.f.f.f.f.f.f. I can do it quite quickly myself, but Brood War had a bit of lag before you could press the left mouse button for the action to register. He’s practicing the timing; the more reps the better. Also, the spam pattern was very interesting. It’s constantly fluctuating between the Nexus and the Pylon every few seconds, and then once Gateway is done, between the Nexus and the Gateway every few seconds. This tells me that Bisu is looking at the bar on the screen, trying to tell himself when he needs to build the next building. Here is an advantage Brood War has over Starcraft 2 - Starcraft 2 encourages multiple buildings on one hotkey, which does not allow you to see the progress bar. Even Bisu, a progamer at this level, cannot keep everything in his head (no one can), so the goal is to create habits that give us constant reminders about what we need to do.

**Notice how he hotkeys the Cybernetics Core as well...I’ll talk about this in a bit. Also, another thing to notice is that when Bisu went to build his Cyber Core or his Gateway, the screen skipped the way it did BECAUSE HE WAS USING A SCREEN KEY. Good habits! All about those good habits! No mouse scrolling. Flash uses mouse scrolling, but that’s just Flash.

3:18 - 3:25; Doing the build whilst microing the Probe. This is incredible, these are the sequences I study the most. IN SUPER SLOW MO, FRAME BY FRAME. Just before he goes up the ramp, his selection is actually his gateway, checking on the status of his dragoon, and whether he can make the next one or not. He then tells the probe to go up the ramp, and goes back to his base to tell his Probe to build a building - but he abandons this thought the instant the Probe starts getting shot. Then he checks his Gateway again, as the Probe is heading down the ramp. Sends his probe to the “magic spot” on the ramp (there’s a spot where you can see up the ramp but the marines can’t shoot you), goes back to his gateway screen to hotkey the dragoon, and then attack moves the dragoon to Flash’s base. At some point at 3:23, his screen is back on his probe, but he’s queuing up the next probe. I don’t know if you saw it or not, but then he rallies his Nexus to his expansion. He then cancels the rally, makes a Pylon, and sends his scout towards his expansion. This all happened in less than 5 seconds.

Bisu scouted that Flash went for Factory first expand, which makes sense on that map, so he plopped down his own expansion. Reasonable enough.

3:55 ;Microing the dragoon against Flash’s marine. Shoots once, checks the Marine’s health (you couldn’t see enemy healthbars, you actually had to click on the enemy’s units), and then decides “I don’t need to micro,” so goes back to his Natural to throw down his nexus. Sees the marine die on the minimap, tells the Dragoon outside of Flash’s base to advance up the ramp, and tells his current Dragoon to stay outside of his base to deny the SCV scout.

4:10; This is the first moment where Bisu is actually doing 4+ things at the same time, and based on his bottom screen, his eye movements can be reverse engineered. First he tells his Goon to chase the SCV, then sends his natural probe back to mine. A brief checkup/adjustment on the Goon at the natural, though he is watching it both via the minimap to see if any brown dots appear, but also he can check by tapping its hotkey to check its health. A bit of what looks like Nexus/rally spamming, okay Bisu, and then he checks his Cyber Core for Goon range before building dragoons out of both of his gateways. Did you see that? It was lightning quick. The screen almost didn’t even have time to show it.

4:22; Bisu seems to be spending most of his screen time at his base. Dare I say it - BW units don’t need their screen on them as much while microing! That’s because while micro was important, the fights were generally slower. Also, I don’t know if you could see it, but the Robo is supposed to go down when Goon range is about 3/4ths of the way done. Bisu, whilst doing everything else, was tapping the Cybernetics Core hotkey.

This upcoming sequence, in my opinion, is one of the most telling about Bisu’s incredible multitasking ability. Let’s break it down:

Hotkeys Robo -> Second nexus rally point adjustment (spam)-> First nexus rally point adjustment (spam) -> Quick checkup on both goons -> Draws box near edge of screen to see if there’s an SCV there (sometimes you can box something that you can’t see) -> Boxes probe near second goon and tells him to assimilator walk to natural -> Micros goon chasing SCV [attempts to build goon]-> sees red minimap indicator, jumps to goon outside Flash’s base[attempts to build goon] -> Is microing goon away from tank, but checking hotkeys every half second or something [nexus/gateway]-> builds probe and dragoon -> skips back to base to tell probe to mine.

This sequence lasted from 4:22 - 4:32, I implore you to slow it down and really look for all of these things. It’s kind of incredible how well he does it.

Then he micros a probe and dragoon to kill the Scout worker. Notice he’s not tapping here - this information is crucial, Bisu is going for a Reaver drop, and it is essential that Flash does not see it, nor count Bisu’s Dragoons, which was why he hid them back. It was important enough for Bisu to let his macro slip just a little (which it didn’t).

5:14; Hey, he misses shift deselects too LOL. Jk...he’s microing for a little bit after hotkeying his second gateway, adjusting his units here and there. Notice how he is constantly spamming (okay, maybe not constantly) - you do hear the Robotics Facility noise quite a bit - he wants to throw down the Observatory instantly

At this point, Bisu doesn’t really have to move out, so he’s just cycling through all of his hotkeys, making sure he’s doing everything he has to. The INSTANT the Obs Bay finished - two of them get plopped down.

5:42; Sends the probe out to make expansion, while adjusting the dragoon - BUT BUILDING MORE DRAGOONS with his hotkeys. It looks like Bisu’s adjusting his units here and there, and then just spamming through all of his hotkeys, checking on when to build stuff. Hotkeys the obs the instant it pops.

6:56; Observer sequence. Notice how he’s controlling the observer and keeping his screen there, clicking on the Terran stuff he needs to click on, but the entire time, he’s tapping his nexuses. And the moment a probe pops, he jumps back to send him to mine, then comes right back to the observer. Normally Bisu would also be spamming his gateway hotkeys, and here’s the really interesting part. Flash’s build makes it look like he’s going for the fast 3rd CC, so Bisu cancelled a few of his units in order to get his third Nexus up. But then he sees the SCV throw down a Starport instead - instant restart of all of his units, and throws the Forge down instantly.

8:10; Goons moving out. This is REALLY where we start to pick up and see 400+ APM Bisu. Notice how he puts all of his tech structures near each other - since Terran is a lot less mobile in this game, it’s a lot less dangerous because you don’t have to worry about them being killed off. Also, there’s the added benefit of being able to see them every time you skip back to your base (which is a lot). Controls some units for a bit, checks both of his nexuses (nexi), and then ONLY ONE of his gateways. This is an interesting thing to do, where you queue up all of your gateways at the same time, but only check one of them. It makes perfect sense. Then he checks the probe at his third, checks Flash’s third, before dropping two gateways.

You know, I just realized that this one video I could spend hours breaking down, so I’ll just highlight a few general trends I’m seeing.

-Spending most of his time controlling his units, or “advancing in the game,” such as getting more bases, or teching, etc. -During moments such as 14:45, when he mass recalled into the main, his focus was mainly on the micro, but here and there he would tap his gateways and try to make units. At one point, when he thought he could look away for a bit, he actually threw down a bunch of gateways. -During probe time (which was earlier) -He seems to not miss a beat on his minimap -In most instances when he’s looking away from his base, he is tapping his hotkeys -Later on, when his army eats up too many hotkeys, he makes as many excuses to jump to his home screen as possible, and then clicks on buildings to check their progress. Though his mouse is INSANELY quick.

It doesn’t really seem like he’s “microing while macroing,” or “macroing while microing.” He doesn’t put one over the other. It just seems like he’s playing Starcraft.

He can skip back so quickly that his units don’t miss a beat.

How to Avoid League of Legends Tilt

Tilt impacts all of us – even the professionals – and it can do serious damage to your ELO if you play League of Legends under tilt. That’s why it’s important to avoid League of Legends tilt at all costs.

This blog post aims to answer three key questions regarding League of Legends tilt hopefully helping you avoid becoming tilted in the future. We’ll start with explaining what tilt is, then we’ll move onto the symptoms of tilt before finally looking at what you can to do avoid becoming the next toxic Riven main.

So, unlike Team Siren, let’s get started.

What is League of Legends Tilt?

We can’t learn how to avoid tilt if we don’t know what it is.

Tilt is a term which originally comes from gambling (specifically poker) where a player is playing badly because of unlucky draws and minor mistakes leading to frustration.

This mixture of frustration with a feeling of unjust leads to more poor decisions and larger mistakes which causes the player to go into tilt further.

When we want to apply this to League of Legends tilt it’s very similar. Imagine you are playing League of Legends and you feel it’s unfair because a mistake cost you the game which you had no control over. Maybe a team mate decided to AFK or someone unskilled on the enemy team is fed.

This leads to you getting angry and then you lose focus so you start to make your own game changing mistakes. We’ve summed up League of Legends tilt in an easy to read diagram. Each time you go around this circle the tilt will only get worse leading to more losses and a cycle that is hard to break.

Sounds Terrible – But am I on Tilt?

You can’t avoid League of Legends tilt if you don’t know what tilt is.

Don’t worry though – there are some easy to tell signs when you are going onto tilt. Here are some of the major warning signs you are about to enter into a League of Legends tilt.

You Could be on Tilt if you’re making Irrational Decisions

  When you play against a troll pick, like Blitzcrank mid, you’ll probably go into the game expecting to win. Unfortunately something happens and you’ll end up losing your lane, your sanity and end up on tilt.

You went into this match up expecting to win, I mean he is a Blitzcrank mid after all, and you can’t accept the crushing defeat he’s handed to you with his big robotic hands. Unfortunately after some nice grabs and a couple of jungle ganks later you’re currently 0/10 against this guy and your ready to run into the enemy tower constantly.

After a frustating game and a quick stop at the keyboard store you queue back up and all of a sudden you get a great idea.

What if I play Blitzcrank mid

If this situation feels familiar to you then you’re probably on a tilt (or some other substance like alcohol). Playing Blitzcrank mid is not a good idea and it won’t help you win – you just had a bad game. Accept this and move on. This situation isn’t just unique to champion picks either. The same can be said for poor dragon decisions or silly warding mistakes. If you played against a team that seriously focused the dragons and you lost hard it doesn’t mean you should only focus on the dragons in the next game. Keep your focus on the game, use tactics that work for your team and don’t make any irrational decisions based on previous experiences.

You’re Tilting if you’re Trolling or Flaming

  The cornerstone of a League of Legends tilt is flaming. You’re trying to play your lane but you start to feel the rage build up inside. Before you know it your hands move to your keyboard and you’ve insulted your teammates mother. It spirals out of control and after the innevitable all chat begging for reports the games over and you’re left staring at a defeat screen.

No rational or happy person is going to start telling their teammates how much they suck. If you start to flame your team after every mistake they make then you’re going to be adding to the problem, not solving it. Just focus on improving your own game and encourage your teammates.

The ‘feeder’ in the top lane doesn’t need any more hate (even if he’s playing Riven) – he probably feels bad enough already. By flaming the guy you’re only going to cause him to go into a League of Legends tilt too. He’ll then carry his negative attitude into his next game and probably flame again. Eventually the whole community ends up flaming faster than a fire in 1666 London.

Do everyone a favour and follow these two simple tips. If you feel yourself getting angry then:

1) Mute everyone in the game and focus on your own gameplay.

2) Make sure you don’t queue up again until you’re calm.

You’re on a League of Legends Tilt if you’re Expecting to Lose

How can you expect to win if you go into each game expecting to lose?

It’s never my fault, always rubbish teams.

This is the classic sign of a League of Legends tilt. If you feel like you’re going to lose and what’s the point then why bother queueing? Just stop playing until you feel more positive. You could go outside, Read a book, play another game or just log into a League of Legends smurf account and have a relaxing normal game.

By going into a game expecting to lose you’re going to make stupid mistakes and have a short temper. As soon as something bad happens in this game you’ll simply sigh and say: “Here we go again” and continue to play without a care in the world. While playing without caring can make the experience less stressful it’s not going to help you climb the ladder.

It’s not Skype… Typing more than Playing

League of Legends requires you to only use your left side of your keyboard.

  At no point should you feel the need to put your right hand onto your keyboard and start talking.

People on a League of Legends tilt tend to spend more time flaming and typing in chat then actually playing the game. If you can’t help yourself then you could mute all the other players and focus on yourself only. This way you can improve your own game. The fact is you’re not going to change someone elses playstyle so don’t bother trying.

If you’re really struggling you could remove all the keys from the right hand side of your keyboard – although we don’t actually reccomend you do this.

Focusing on others in Champion Select

Have you ever just come out of a bad game where your jungle picked an out of flavour (or even meta) champion and did nothing only to go into the next game and have a different guy pick the same champion?

While we admit it’s uncommon to see two Heimerdinger Jungles in a row, it can happen. The problem is you’re going to attribute your previous loss to the Heimerdinger and instantly assume that, since there’s another Heimerdinger, the end result will be the same.

You can either say; “Omfg We just had a Heimerdinger and he sucked. GG we lost.” or you could just think; “Hey this guy is playing the same champion as the other guy – maybe he can use him correctly”. Here’s a tip (and a spear behind it): The second one is a much better way of thinking.

If you are comparing your teammate’s champions to previous games then you are probably on League of Legends tilt and you should start to focus on your own game. Oh and in the unfortunate situation of having two Heimerdinger Jungles in a row: just dodge.

You’re going to lose less LP, not effect your MMR and save yourself 30 minutes. You can even use the 5 minute time out to exercise.

I’m on League of Legends tilt – What do I do?

  If you find yourself in the situation above then firstly: don’t worry. League of Legends has a tendancy to tilt most people and League of Legends tilt doesn’t mean you have anger issues.

Tilt affects everyone and you can only have a limited patience before competitive video games will eventually start to annoy you. Once you’ve accepted your tilt it’s time to take action. The quicker you take action the less damage the tilt will do to your MMR, mental state and keyboard.

If you are in a game and you start to experience tilt then you should put on your favourite song, mute your entire team, and focus on making improvements. Set yourself little goals like aiming to get 30 CS without dying or pushing a lane to get a tower.

If you find yourself on tilt after the game then you should not queue up for any more games. This will only cause you to go into a worse League of Legends tilt.

Ways to Beat League of Legends Tilt

If you want to stop tilting then here’s some of our top tips.

Play Another Game – Try a different game for a bit. League of Legends is a fast paced and stressful competitive game which leads to a harsh atmosphere and blood-thirsty community. Relax with a simple game like Minecraft or Bejeweled before queuing again.

Play with Friends – Everything is better with friends. Avoid arguments and the luck of the draw in the team raffle by playing with friends that won’t feed or troll. You’ll also be aware that tilting in front of your friends is going to damage your friendship and embarrass you.

Exercise – It’s a proven fact that physical exhaustion will increase your mental fitness. The release of endorphin also make you feel better and make you play better when you come back. Just let your heart rate settle first.

Watch YouTube or Twitch – You can relax on the internet by watching your favourite tuber or streamer. Just make sure that if they are playing League of Legends you focus on their own game and not their team.

Clean your Area – Cleaning can make you feel great (through exercise) and give you something to do to help you calm down. Coming back to a clean desk will make you feel ready to play and give you a fresh start.

Talk to a Friend – Whatever voice program you use (We personally love Discord) talking to a friend can calm you down. Tell them your terrible experiences and laugh together at the misfortune you’ve had. After a quick rofl you can return to the game with a smile on your face.

Sleep – Sleeping can help you de stress and avoid League of Legends tilt. Throughout education its recommended that you get a good nights sleep after a revision session to help solidify what you’ve previously learnt. When you’re trying to climb the League of Legends ladder a nap will help refresh you as well as cement your new knowledge.

Act on your Triggers – You should by now already know what triggers you. If it’s abuse or flaming then simply mute them without replying. If troll picks are more your tilt then simply dodge. Whatever triggers you – there’s always a sensible solution without going into a League of Legends tilt.
