I just heard a song for the first time in a while and LOVED how much it accidentally matches Jason.

There's a darkness upon me that's flooded in light
In the fine print they tell me what's wrong and what's right
And it comes in black and it comes in white
And I'm frightened by those that don't see it
…
If you're loved by someone, you're never rejected
Decide what to be and go be it
…
Like a bird in a cage I broke in
And demanded that somebody free it
…
And there was a kid with a head full of doubt
So I'll scream 'til I die
And the last of those bad thoughts are finally out

Oh. My gosh. I’m in the middle of my first read of book one. I was NOT expecting a Dr Horrible reference.

This is amazing I had to pause and come here.

This actually made me worry about how many jokes or references or context I’m MISSING. I get all the ones I get, but some are surprising or niche….so I’m SURE there are a hundred I’ve already missed.

Ok. The book got me. I had to pause the audio to laugh and catch my breath. That’s frelling hilarious. I love Knowlege and Jason so much.

No spoilers please. I didn’t even finish the scene where he meets Knowlege. I’m literally still almost in tears as I write this.

Learning to MID

So I have her as my support main. But I’ve seen her played against me in mid and she was a HOUSE.

It’s so weird to me, because when built for support, she is (relatively) useless alone.

Does anyone have a guide they like for MID?

I only play on Wild Rift mobile, if that matters.

So I’m sort of new, but I get really pissed when a game gets remade after starting. It seems like it only happens when opposing team remakes the game….when my team remakes the game i think it’s always been at the begining before it starts due to a bad lineup.

So the other team remaking after the game starts just wastes my time and feels bad.

Seems like if I get a compensation email when my teammate is afk/greifing/etc, seems like I should get a (smaller?) compensation when the opponents remake.

Is there a reason for this being the way it is? I hope so, because I’ll be less mad if it can make sense to me more.

I didn’t see the details but my wild rift shows amumu as recently nerfed. Is he significantly worse? Or a minor balancing?

I am on book 9 (Cassie narrates them being termites) So if these are answered in later books, PLEASE just say “they adress it later just wait”. I don’t want spoilers. Please. I am loving that I can discuss it with my kids as we discover the answers together and I can make guesses without knowing if I’m right or not.

BUT (spoilers ahead in case anyone else wants to avoid spoilers)

….

1)why when they met the Elemist and had to escape the Taxxon mouth…why did none of the controllers notice they were humans? The had to morph human then bear, but it seemed like a lot of controllers saw them morph so would know they are humans.

2)why did they not take Visser 3’s body with them when they left, after the snake bite and Visser 3 ran? I get why they couldn’t bring themselves to kill the andalite (a mistake I am sure, but one that reminds me of Gandalf and Sméagol in tlotr so maybe it was the correct moral choice). But why not take him with them as they ran? Try to save the andalite if they could? I get not murdering an innocent man, but why leave a tool in the hands of the enemy?

3. why did Visser 3 not capture the prince in book 1? Putting a yeerk in his head long term would make a second Abomination and be a HUGE win for the yeerks. If he didn’t want to share the morphing spotlight, then at least doing it for a day would get all the prince’s military secrets.

4. how do you all pronounce yeerk and Hork-Bajir? I’m reading this aloud to my kids and I am doing ok, but I wondered if there was an official or widely accepted pronunciation. Yerk? Yeee-urk? Yuh-ear-k? Ba-hear? Bah-jeer?

Thanks! I loved these as a kid and committed to buying and reading every book as they were written. But at some point around book 15 I stopped, don’t remember why, and am LOVING reading them to my kids now. I remember so little of each book that I am getting to experience it fresh alongside my kids, theory craft with them, make guesses that I don’t remember the answers to, etc.
