You'd have to be retarded not to figure out shaman fusion by simple trial and error.

Shaman Fusion can be done by trial and error. Cooking, which is pictured, can not be. Not a single recipe is even hinted at within the game and the only common item that produces anything worthwhile when cooked is Vitamin, which becomes a slightly better healing item.

Are you dyslexic?

Game mechanics hate thread?

Non-zero Sum Elemental systems. And metas in general. That's probably pretty vague, but it's the worst feeling when I want to make my Dex-fag 1000-strike speed character, and the game pushes you towards Tank builds or Stealth Archers

Although that's probably what everyone's pet-peeve boils down to. Hell, even Pay-to-win is just a "Real Money >> Skill and Effort" sum equation.

Meta's upset me in any multiplayer game.

It's one of the reasons I dislike MOBA's so much.

When the game's new, everyone is trying new stuff and it's fun.

But then the meta settles in and you're fighting the same match over and over again because god forbid someone does something outside the meta: that would be an instant loss!

The entire damage system in Dragon's Dogma.

And then you've got cancer like Riot banning people for breaking meta.

>>13819604

Not outright. See, the game is geared and made for the meta. They made sure only the meta works. All the mechanics are there to serve the meta. If you go against the meta (put 3 guys mid) you're also neglecting half the game mechanics and that will always, ALWAYS net you a loss.

So, whenever you dick around and do some stupid shit? You're not just "breaking the meta".

You're breaking the game and throwing a match.

In their eyes at least, cause LoL is serious fucking business to it's players.

At least in Overwatch you can still pick dumb shit like Torb on attack and hear the french faggots screeching on the mic about "MUH METAH" and laugh cause it's not bannable yet.

>ALWAYS net you a loss

except for all those times where teams won by running zany shit like sacrifice top lane 3 bot. Hell there even was a pro game where they 5 stacked mid and won just because the other team couldn't adapt at all to the early game pressure.

Riot later warned the team against breaking the meta and threatened to ban them if it happened again.
