I have not included the links to the videos referenced because that would be repeating negativity which I do not believe in! Shoutout to @ASH-RAID for always being a beacon of positivity in our community!
Appreciate your content Saph. Remember that a lot of negativity in the online space is a vocal minority. I feel like most people playing Raid (like myself) are just doing our thing and enjoying the game as we go
And in all of what they've done hydra is still not working properly I still finding my champions attacking heads I don't click on I saw my champions still bypassing the head that consumed my champion to go and attacking different heads so with all these changes hydra is still not fixed
Thanks for the kind words man. I certainly understand that my content isn't for everybody and that's the beauty of RAID - so many different content creators to watch OR not watch. When it comes to you - not only do I think the world of you as a person, haven gotten to know you more over the years, but I've also come to really admire the way your mind works when it comes to game design. I always knew you were a smart guy, sure, but it wasn't until I witnessed you lead meetings and ideate complex game mechanics behind the scenes with Godforge that I truly strarted to understand "oh wow, this guys is TRULY special." Some of it comes off in your content here on the channel, but I can assure viewers that's only the tip of the iceburg. The fact that you consitently go in and basically fix Plarium's game for them -- time and time again, with no alterior motive than to sinsirely wanting them make the best game possible, is testament to your skills, level-headedness, and passion for the community. It's crazy to me that you're somehow a lightning rod for some... perhaps it's just what you said at the start of the video, though, when people are upset they NEED someone to blame. It's a shame because you're the LAST person deserving of it. Keep up the great work man.
Can you imagine Saph in the programme. He sends fixes without being included into the programme, shows why he's a go to creator. Still ridiculous he's not included, the amount of time and energy, he's put into the game, even after all this time 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Hey Saph, ever since I started the game, I wanted a CC that went rly deep into Raid’s mechanics. You are that guy. It’s crazy how just 4 years ago, no one had a clue who were the champs with the best multipliers or how damage is done. You brought all that to the community along with HH. Your work is 1000% appreciated by me and I’m sure by many many others.
Sapph - You are NOT the problem. People who half-way pay attention to your posts and either (1) don't understand what you are suggesting, or (2) just want someone to blame ARE the problem. Keep doing you. You are awesome.
The thing is you forget how strong your influence to Plarium is sometimes. It is proven time and time again that they watch your videos and adjust things in their game. A perfect example of this would be the change to how artifact sets like stun set worked , which after your video got adjusted and essentially "nerfed" ukko into the ground who was super meta in PVP at the time. Another example would be the bug in harriers passive or razelvarg multipliers that you pointed out and got changed for the better. If you are willing to take the good, you need to also be willing to take the bad.
I meant no disrespect while expressing my opinion, and I apologize if there was any. might be a language problem. I am taking action to address the obvious hypocrisy in what I said, that will come out soon.
@@HHGamingNetwork Thank you Saph! like I told Ash, happy to discuss this for the good of the community, but won't do it now, because I want to avoid this looking like a channel boost move from me.
@@wizarddavegamingI respect shelving the discussion for a bit so that it doesn’t look like a channel boost. That shows me where your heart REALLY is with this- no ulterior motive, sincerely looking for discussion. Also, willing to admit if mistakes were made! Respect.
Yes they absolutely 100% should (and pay him a boatload of money as well then give him test server access as an aside), but that would mean they were interested in balance and quality of life which we know for a fact they are not, sadly...
It's so funny how people act like you work at Plarium. They think you, and literally nobody else, not the developers, not the executives, are the reason that an $850 million dollar company makes bad decisions.
I think that might partly due to the fact that the term "content creator" is a little ambiguous. While it means someone who creates content for the game, in terms of videos, guides, and so forth, and not the game itself, I think that point is lost on a lot of people.
tell me another cc that suggested the serpents will buff to this extent , he pointed plarium to numerous bugs and issues, of course the look at his vids
@@albundy7725so we’re going to ignore all the simultaneous buffs he suggested in that exact same video? Surely Plarium can’t possibly come up with any changes on their own, anything they do has to come from someone else
I don't like it when content creators pile on and hate on other content creators, it's toxic. Especially in this case where neither you, nor Ash have done anything to deserve it. Keep doing what you're doing, Saph, I assure you that your community greatly appreciates your deep dives and eagerly awaits every video you drop. P.S. Give my regards to Ash, he's the best
best at what ? lol , making nonesense videos about top tier this , top tier that , is he a great guy ? Absolutely , but his content is repetitive same old 10 rank champions or random shard pulls ,
Saph "the killer of fun". Just kidding. I think the biggest issue is hydra isn't fun anymore. There is no reason to push my account forward. I started doing hydra on full auto. I never do that. Just need to build a brutal auto team. Just keep being yourself.
EXACTLY what I feel as well. I used to invest the time each week into manualling it, but now I refuse to do anything but mindlessly manual for the minimum chest thresholds.
Plarium doesn't have a testing team. All their game testing comes from players. It's free labor and smarter minds. This has been proven 2x with the nerfs to Corpulent and Madman.
Regarding Ash... the path to hell is always paved with good intentions. Let's face it, he's an addict. I enjoy his videos and especially the work his editor does, but he has a problem.
This is mainly an issue for whales. I’ve never been matched against other teams using Thundra, or if I have, they didn’t deal enough damage to be noticeable. Most of the time, we’re matched with players who deal similar amounts of damage. In my clan, everyone uses different teams because we just work with what we’ve got-we’re already using the variety of teams you’re suggesting. This is a pay-to-win game; let those players win. Honestly, I don’t think many people enjoy the VS features in this game. Personally, I hate Hydra Clash. It should be removed, and instead, we should have goals to reach for extra rewards. Aside from your suggestion for Hydra, you’ve also proposed a Wixwell shield nerf, which impacts low spenders and free-to-play players who have invested in him. I have Wixwell but never use Yannica’s shield damage because I don’t have the time to keep experimenting and trying to make it work. Even if I did get it to work, I’d likely just end up matched with players doing a similar amount of damage anyway.
I saw that video last night from that wizard guy and was just shaking me head at his logic...was the first time ever even hearing of him..not sure if he is just trying to make himself stick out with controversy or something..both you and Ash got some serious defense in that guys comment section though ;)
I enjoy your content and ash's. You two have done nothing wrong. Wizard D is looking for attention to boost his channel. I watched his content and im personally not interested in it.
Yeah I watched his video yesterday and it's just sour grapes from a very mid "content creator"... nothing interesting or ground breaking in terms of content. Just whinging about not getting the views because he covers RSL like hundreds of others.
I saw one of the videos blaming saph for everything and after watching it my thoughts were: "saph is living absolutely rent free in these peoples heads" and "wow this is taken out of context". The video hating on ash got on my feed and I just clicked "Don't recommend channel" lol, wasnt going to give that probable trash a view.
It's astounding to me that so many people seem to believe that you influence decisions made at Plarium, an $850 million company. Do they genuinely not understand how corporations work? It's crazy. Keep up the great work, Saph. Love the content.
The Plarium devs will break things to hurt the community. When the CC's all say something needs to be fixed Plarium uses it as a chance to nerf us and pretend that they are trying to fix the problem.
As for shard pulling videos, I just personally avoid them because I do agree, that they promote an unhealthy desire for spending in the game. Same with videos that highlight kraken accounts with "This Account is Worth X Amount!" titles. I won't support them with clicks or views... but I don't go crapping in the comments about it either. II use my big boy brain, and go do other things with my time. Like normal adults do. If you are an adult, and you are harassing Ash, or any other CC, for their videos... you need to grow up, an get a life. You have the option to not watch those videos. You are not a child.
I really enjoyed running my trunda team. It took me over a year to get the speed tune i just couldn't get the speeds I seen on all the videos. I will miss watching my team and all the hard work I put into it.
This is the perfect situation when TWO things can be true. 1. are you Saph instrumental to the community with your deep dives into the codes and multipliers and work you do behind the scenes = yes 2. Did your deep dives into the codes and multipliers possibly lead to some unwanted changes = yes I am a fan of yours. I am sorry if you feel negativity towards you. You deserve the most positivity. Thanks for all you do for Raid. Idk if it came from it but i found the Sam Solstice video a funny jab at you but i didn't feel malice behind it.
I think what might be a positive change to serpent will would be to make it so that instead of decreasing damage it makes the head unkillable but in a way that can't be ignored for the duration of the buff and then as the battle goes on the duration becomes longer and on higher difficulties it starts at a higher duration this way the head will be guaranteed their turns which according to plarium is the very purpose of the serpent will buff but players can still deal damage to the heads
It’s so stupid to think plarium would actually care what any of the CCs think. You have some of the best content for raid. Keep up the great work. And I agree 1000% on Ash. He’s the most positive person out there trying to do something good, always real. Been watching him for years. He always gives something for a good cause, and always says do not whale out, I only do it because it’s part of my job. Keep up the good work guys.
Saph don't worry about what anyone says about you - you do a great community service for the rest of us and we know you're well intentioned. You're one of the only cc's in Raid I watch because you back up your analysis with data and your videos don't annoy me with cut-scenes or clickbait.
Saph, I'm glad, and will continue to be glad that you share with the players what background nonsense Plarium does. If it weren't for your diligence, players won't have had any idea what new champs to prioritise. Thanks for all the math/mechanics input.
In the dictionary under the definition of the word positive is a photo of Ash. Saph, a lot of people watch and enjoy your videos. I like how you really look into how things work, what we can do to as a player to build teams and characters to meat the challenge of the content, and how things can be improved. Just keep doing your thing, not all of us share the negative opinions.
Saph, you're 100% correct. What makes the game fun is when you have tons of different ways to beat a boss and do lots of damage and the recent changes to Hydra hasn't fixed Trunda, it's just destroyed tons of other teams. Among them ally attack teams, single target teams and yannica teams.
The fact that they nerfed a RARE champ because it did something trunda could do (albeit weaker) shows that they CAN nerf trunda.. they just dont want to
I personally love shard pull vids, because when I see someone pull 300 shards for 2 gold pops. It lets me feel good about saving mine. on the other topic no one can be at fault for what happens in a game they don't own. The devs make the decisions based off of what they feel the game needs. Sure they may listen to CC's a bit, but ultimately every decision is made based on how they can make the most from those that are paying.
You know, shard pull videos are great, they make me realize I’m not gonna get lucky with my 30-40 shards that I saved up over a period of time. So better to save them for a guarantee champ. It is fun to watch when someone hits something nice, but overall, they are great to realizing the truth about pulling shards. Also, siege is not as fun as it could be. If there wasn’t a champion to be gained, our clan would not do it like we are. Once we get that champ, we will definitely be doing the least
Saph, just because you give an opinion on the game and that they listened to a part of your solution. Doesn't mean you are the reason that hydra is a mess atm. Keep it up and you do you :)
The content you put out is probably the most useful content in the game. The problems/game errors that you call out are for the betterment of the player base. If you catch an error you inform your viewers of the potential problem so that they don’t waste resources before a rework is pushed out. It is not your fault plarium does not test their game.
You're the problem 🤣😂 I've been playing this game since the beginning, and if anyone thinks plarium listens to the player base, they're crazy and the problem.
dude the problem is plarium. not content creators not users not the president not the king ahaha BLOODY PLARIUM !! Another point I want to raise and I don't know if you will read this but I am a veteran summoners war player ( playing raid also for about 2 years ) in summoners war we have the same problem where back in the day it was all about building diferent unit having fun trying diferent stuff and there you go it works ! now it feels like if you got that unit and this and that and you follow the meta that is all done. I would say that in summoners war we still have alternative but yet wont get the same result even tho when I say result I mean speed to complete this or that. in raid its worse, like you said its either trunda team of get fuckef and your damage is far far away ... not fun but efficient . the problem is no everyone has trunda and its a bloody legendary !! WHAT i MEAN WITH ALL THIS is that usually this happens in those games when they get "old" the patern is the same and I tried multiple og games like theseover the years. Who is going to change that ? Godforge maybe ? another game ? I don't know but this is a fact.
Yeah as a game develops you get "solved" problems and the drive to make new challenges can lead to "this is just the only way" doesnt mean it has to be but its a development thing that happens
I got my second Trunda this spring. Mars or april I think. The first one I got back in 2021. Haven't done abything with the second Trunda until now, other champions have had priority before her. Trying to build her as a cc/burner to complement Trunda 1's raw damage build. Funnily enough, Trunda isn't in any of my Hydra teams yet, in part because even the first Trunda just have a 3 star blessing and you need to have the 6 star blessing to really push her A2 damage in Hydra.
Hey, mate! I just wanna say that u doing great job for the community. I'm watching u since the very first video and I think u've done for community education more than everyone else. I appreciate u a lot and hope to see more of u'r content. Cheers ❤
Don't forget you screwed up Fortus to. My first void leggo to come out of a shard and total trash. So excited it was going to be buffed but Plarium did what you suggested and its definitely one of worst void leggo in entire game. There are much better epics. YOU DID THAT.
I would prefer to see a rework of Trunda that gives her burn activation on the second A3 hit and for the A2, it repeats the first hit as an AoE and spreads Hex.
For what is worth, I've always thought and appreciated about you that you're shining a light on all these things, even if I do not necessarily always agree with all your takes, which is ok. Oof, hitting out at Ash considering the way he actually does shard pulls is a bit ehh
Love you Saph. I do disagree with your opinion of possible changes often, not cause they are "bad" ideas, but you often play the devil's advocate. They just feel like an "engineered" response to how to fix areas rather than a fun/creative way to fix.
I have a +4 trunda with 10.5k atk 400+ critdam in mercyless zeal was 100 billlions easy key and agree with u 100% , Trunda should have been nerfed right away /CT
I appreciate that u bring issues to light and provide solutions. The sad part is that it appears that the people in charge do not listen. Looking forward to seeing u continue this at GodForge.
Saph LOOKS to be a little spark that started the wild fire, that is this hydra mess, since he was the main cc who talked about that aspect most often because that is his main content. That is it. Nothing more, nothing less. A little spark by itself is nothing depends what is around it. The Plarium, unfortunately, was a heap of dried up grass that was just waiting for something to start fire and jumped on it. I knew Plarium was going to mess it up when they said they were working on "COMPLEX FIX" instead of simple fix. I mean they miss simple things all the time, yet they are working on complex fix? A recipe for a disater and we have current hydra mess. Since people often likes to look for something or someone to blame for anything they don't like, Saph was chosen, (not the other Chosen) I think the ONLY thing Saph is definitely responsible for is lowered max for Wixwell shield and I am sure Saph will own to it. The Plarium owns 99.999% of the current hydra mess.
On shard pulling video, so freaking true! Im 100% F2P and never feels like I need to spend even after seeing Smiley Ash HH Nubs MTGJedi Kenpachi Boozor Burritoslayer Tyrauku Kadsistency or any other CC pulling video, its just the dopamine rush thats fun.
They should have put block damage on the restored heads. Then we would have had to strip/steal the buff or use ignore block damage champs. It would have forced trunda teams to use less than ideal supports and given everyone else other team builds to try. Also the devour HP bar is the most infuriating part of the game mode.
Keep doing what you've always done. We need a voice that is interested in the game, and not just themselves, whether it's from players, or CC's. Balance is fun imo.
well said, it's too bad people only hear what they want to hear Refund / reset scrolls would be trivial to do, and then they can just fix Trunda and everyone will be happy again
Honestly I've given up playing raid properly currently. I log on do clan boss and my hydra keys and CVC. That's it, can't be bothered all of it after the hydra changes. I spent too many resources on champs for specifically hydra.
There are alot of aspects of Raid that are just not possible to know about without CCs like you Sapph. Maybe it's a comment on Raid's gameplay itself, but even things like accuracy requirements are nowhere to be found in game, and the average player doesn't have the knowledge or skills to be looking into the game code to figure out what a boss's accuracy/resistance is. I think Raid owes a lot of its success to all you CCs, because at least personally I probably wouldn't have become a long term Raid player without the supplemental information about the game like Boss stats that the HH website offers. Not to mention, leveling, gearing, ascending, masteryifying, and booking even just a single champ takes time and resources, and all just to find that that champ doesn't work like you thought they did, that feeling always sucks. So I find just all the community insight about champs, alot of which gets filtered through all of you CCs, gives me a much better sense of direction on who I want to use and max out first.
I find it somewhat hypocritical to point out Trunda to be THE problem, when the next level of champs (which tend to be Marius & Teox, maybe 1-2 more) are just as high above the next available tier of champs in terms of damage capabilities. We are probably close to having 1000 Legendary & Mythicals in the game now - and while i do understand that there's monetary aspects involved its still somewhat mind-boggling to me that the top results can only be achieved by less then 5 selected Damage-Dealers.
As controversial it is the decapitated head hp limit is not from devil. Without that, everyone's best team was hitting easy for 100 billions. Now actually worth running your team on the higher hydra difficulty.
Numbers don't lie, its not your fault, as an analyst myself i understand that things should just work the way they are intented or rather worded in the context of raid. Feel like folks are just fed up and have picked up pitch forks to just nail one unfortunate.
I really appreciate all your thoughts on content and I find it nonsense of people point at you. I think its just bad human behaviour as they can't find some of the right Plarium person. Please keep on with ideas and your helping the community is much appreciated by the silent majority.
We love you, Saph! we love and appreciate what you do very much! i actually wish Plarium actually take your suggestions and not listen half way like those blaming you.
It is very sad for ANY player to go after ANY content creator for ANY reason. Opinions are opinions. We all have them. Saph's content, imo, is some of the best. He uses actual numbers from the game to make things make sense on why they work the way they do. These result in proof that something is broken. All of that still comes down to Saph being just a content creator. He isn't a dev. Doesn't work for Plarium. Plarium doesn't need to listen to anybody on what we think of different parts of the game. They could go do whatever they please with the game, even if it kills off some content. Every single content creator I watch have all stated opinions on what they thought of the hydra changes. None of them had positive opinions. Doesn't make sense to go after Saph over it when he wasn't the only one saying these things. Saph, I love your content!
Saph saw that Plarium needed to fix their furniture, Saph gave Plarium a Hammer Then Plarium used the hammer to commit mass-unalive to a lot of innocent people Saph is clearly up to blame for that 100% !!!
Saph from my small perspective...we like your nerdness. Shard pulls are great, i love watching others pull. Your a great voice, i appreciate you as we know your working overtime...all ...the....time. F those haters.
I appreciate you calling out bugs-it’s a critical part of improving the game. However, I’ve noticed that you often suggest solutions alongside the bug report as part of your constructive feedback. While it’s great to provide ideas, it can put you in the spotlight if Raid implements your suggestion and it ends up introducing new issues or making the content harder. My advice would be to continue pointing out bugs publicly but share your proposed solutions directly with them. This way, the focus stays on the issue rather than potential fallout from the suggested fixes.
People wouldn’t be as pissed off if they hadn’t put a a competitive component behind us no one really give a shit. They also took advantage of the 1015 next bullshit people spend thousands of dollars on chasing some of these champions and that’s rightfully so I don’t agree that it should be targeted back at you, most of us have made suggestions
I appreciate what the CCs are doing in trying to help direct the game in a good direction with their feedback. I know plarium halfway acknowledged their changes were awful, and I know you are somewhat limited in what you can talk about, but in communications with them are you getting any impression that they are actually listening to how they can fix what they have done and intend to do so?
I agreed with all the things you said about hydra, even the serpent's will proposals but how they implement things is always the issue. It's like they deliberately used your ideas and made them very horrible to just make you look bad and for everyone to not ever question anything or else they will make the game a living hell. I do disagree with you about teox though, he is way too powerful with his turn meter manipulation when my arbiter gets outsped by him because of debuffs that get put on at the start of the round and then he just kills anything in his path. People were pulling multiple copies of him and then they changed the way the headline champion could be pulled after that. I have a faction unity champion and he's not even close to be so powerful and IMO he is maybe the next best one.
people don't understand that without Saph's work the game would be worse than it is, not the other way around. we do need someone who refutes the text in this game: how it is written and how it is actually interpreted comparing it to how it should've been written, coded or interpreted. how this confirms in a game and how does the multipliers work in a game explained in text. it gives a better view of the game and points out how it can be played better sadly there is currently one guy that's doing that job whom the majority of the community rely on his work -directly or otherwise- and that guy is him. keep up the hard work mr Saph the destroyer of champions ❤
Sorry you are dealing with this. Plarium is the problem and the worst part is, it's intentional. They are a billion dollar professional gaming organization who knows exactly what they are doing. They want our attention on Live arena (pvp makes money) and the new clan boss not spending hours a week on the hydra. They nerfed hydra rewards/time/fun. They significantly buffed Live Arena rewards, Have a new/frustrating/p2w clan boss coming and are Fixing Siege (pvp makes money off whales). This is their plan to drive spending. PS - check back over the last years this is (intentionally) how the community always feels in early November, before the the content and spending binge of the holidays.
Saph, I genuinely enjoy your vids and am always excited when you post because I'm about to learn something. Thanks a lot for all you do for the community.
No, No, No... *everything* wrong in the world is your fault!! ;) No matter what any content creator suggests, it is up to Plarium to determine how the game should work. If we dont like what they give us then it is their fault and not CCs. Thanks for the content and keep up the good work, it is appreciated!
Unfortunately, haters gonna hate. I watch a ton of CC content on this game, and I find myself not watching the doomsayers and consistently negative creators because I watch these videos for entertainment or in-game educational value. The negative nellies are not worth my time as they offer little to no entertainment. I appreciate what you, Ash, Colred, Hell Hades, Nub, Skratch, YST and most other CC's do and hope that these other guys can simply fade away to insignificance.
Saph, you're the man. In MY personal opinion, YOU are the single most consistent champion for game balance that this game has ever had. People might not like what you suggest, people might not agree with your takes, but I have NEVER seen you truly advocate for something OTHER than balancing the game and making the game work as it says it's supposed to work. Keep doing you, man. Maybe Plarium will give you test server access!
You make some of the best videos there is about the game, some people just like to complain and blame others for stuff. Nerfs and boosts happen in most games and at times they go wrong, really dont think Plarium need to refund people for a champion because of it. I personally also like watching shard pull videos at times when i just sit down with a coffee and want to watch something easy, its fun seeing others getting good champions and dont really see how it promotes for anyone else to spend, if i want to spend on shards i will, if i dont feel like it then i wont, what someone else is doing doesnt change that.
I think Saph you are so important to the community, you should not get bothered to much by some persons not honoring the work. We have content creators, tell you that 430 speed is to slow. We have content creators that with a smile talk about how unfair their top 10 clan is acting on hydra clash, siege and other modes by manipulating their matchmaking to get lower clans. We have... i wont go on... I think with your permanent fight on balance and better game design without just showing off some shiny cc things to get more fanboys, exposes you to some persons with bad behaviour. Having an opinion these days in the internet seems to always result in someone try to put you down. You are always attackable when you have an opinion, and it takes courage. My biggest hope is, that these guys are a vocal minority, they like to shout out loud and a lot - but i am still convinced that 99% of all RSL gamers are very thankfully for all the things you bring to the game. Is it game mechanics, secret changes, auto-equip champions or the optimizer. Paired with not just bringing content to aquire more fanboys, but really interessting opinions and techniques - dont let bad comments hit you to hard please. On the other side i am pretty convinced we can blame you for rigging some things in HH tournaments, global food crisis or global warming - just in case ;)
Saph uses spreadsheets and math. And now my boss is asking me to use spreadsheets and math. Content creators have a responsibility to the public to never allow more than 3% of their videos to show spreadsheets and math.
"I'm trying to level the playing field " yeah worked fine with the serpents will buff and the ally attackers and the hp life bars of the heads made it all more fun for erveryone right ??. srsly you give plarium such suggestions with 100% dmg negate and you wonder afterwards what they did with this ,a disaster thats what hydra is today no fun at all. to talk about fairness in a gacha game where you can buy shards to the extent to +4 champs and so on is very ironic
Where did he advocates for the AA attack changes or any of the others besides the serpents will? Which in the end would have almost any impact if it was just that
saph i think you are the best cc out of the lot. the information and the knowledge is absolutely amazing. you built the optimiser and are just the brains. hope people start to leave your opinions alone. keep doing you
I have not included the links to the videos referenced because that would be repeating negativity which I do not believe in! Shoutout to @ASH-RAID for always being a beacon of positivity in our community!
Appreciate your content Saph. Remember that a lot of negativity in the online space is a vocal minority. I feel like most people playing Raid (like myself) are just doing our thing and enjoying the game as we go
And in all of what they've done hydra is still not working properly I still finding my champions attacking heads I don't click on I saw my champions still bypassing the head that consumed my champion to go and attacking different heads so with all these changes hydra is still not fixed
I think a minor solution would have been to implement not being allowed to use multiple copies of the same champions on teams. And
@@Deathnow78yes I've said this since day one 💯💯💯😔😩
Please find out who is to blame, and assisgn the blame, and or find a solution. Thank you.
Thanks for the kind words man. I certainly understand that my content isn't for everybody and that's the beauty of RAID - so many different content creators to watch OR not watch.
When it comes to you - not only do I think the world of you as a person, haven gotten to know you more over the years, but I've also come to really admire the way your mind works when it comes to game design. I always knew you were a smart guy, sure, but it wasn't until I witnessed you lead meetings and ideate complex game mechanics behind the scenes with Godforge that I truly strarted to understand "oh wow, this guys is TRULY special."

Sapph - You are NOT the problem. People who half-way pay attention to your posts and either (1) don't understand what you are suggesting, or (2) just want someone to blame ARE the problem. Keep doing you. You are awesome.
This!
The thing is you forget how strong your influence to Plarium is sometimes. It is proven time and time again that they watch your videos and adjust things in their game.
A perfect example of this would be the change to how artifact sets like stun set worked , which after your video got adjusted and essentially "nerfed" ukko into the ground who was super meta in PVP at the time. Another example would be the bug in harriers passive or razelvarg multipliers that you pointed out and got changed for the better.
If you are willing to take the good, you need to also be willing to take the bad.
I meant no disrespect while expressing my opinion, and I apologize if there was any. might be a language problem. I am taking action to address the obvious hypocrisy in what I said, that will come out soon.
Appreciate the reflection here - happy to discuss anything you feel its ambiguous or you think I said was poor.
@@HHGamingNetwork Thank you Saph! like I told Ash, happy to discuss this for the good of the community, but won't do it now, because I want to avoid this looking like a channel boost move from me.
@@wizarddavegamingI respect shelving the discussion for a bit so that it doesn’t look like a channel boost. That shows me where your heart REALLY is with this- no ulterior motive, sincerely looking for discussion. Also, willing to admit if mistakes were made!
Respect.
Plarium should employ Saph for a week with no design restraints and 90% of their balance and quality of life issues will be solved.
Everything would be nerfed and people would freak out.
@@Riseoffrost2it’s not nerfs if they are bug fixes 😭
Yes they absolutely 100% should (and pay him a boatload of money as well then give him test server access as an aside), but that would mean they were interested in balance and quality of life which we know for a fact they are not, sadly...
damn right 😊😊😊
Blow him a bit harder
It's so funny how people act like you work at Plarium. They think you, and literally nobody else, not the developers, not the executives, are the reason that an $850 million dollar company makes bad decisions.
Yeah, of all the opinions out there and it’s only Sapph that they listen to, come on, please! Wake up!
Exactly @@shauntattersall1510
I think that might partly due to the fact that the term "content creator" is a little ambiguous. While it means someone who creates content for the game, in terms of videos, guides, and so forth, and not the game itself, I think that point is lost on a lot of people.
tell me another cc that suggested the serpents will buff to this extent , he pointed plarium to numerous bugs and issues, of course the look at his vids
@@albundy7725so we’re going to ignore all the simultaneous buffs he suggested in that exact same video? Surely Plarium can’t possibly come up with any changes on their own, anything they do has to come from someone else
I stubbed my toe the other day because of you.
the fact they ruined taunt after finishing 3 teams around it pissed me off
Totally agree with this really annoyed me
I quit largely because of that
I don't like it when content creators pile on and hate on other content creators, it's toxic. Especially in this case where neither you, nor Ash have done anything to deserve it. Keep doing what you're doing, Saph, I assure you that your community greatly appreciates your deep dives and eagerly awaits every video you drop.
P.S. Give my regards to Ash, he's the best
best at what ? lol , making nonesense videos about top tier this , top tier that , is he a great guy ? Absolutely , but his content is repetitive same old 10 rank champions or random shard pulls ,
@@ArmenVendetta I didn't write "his content is the best", I wrote "he is the best" and I stand by it
@@stanimirstanchev6354 he sure is ! thats why I asked lol
Saph "the killer of fun". Just kidding.
I think the biggest issue is hydra isn't fun anymore. There is no reason to push my account forward. I started doing hydra on full auto. I never do that. Just need to build a brutal auto team.
Just keep being yourself.
EXACTLY what I feel as well. I used to invest the time each week into manualling it, but now I refuse to do anything but mindlessly manual for the minimum chest thresholds.
Plarium doesn't have a testing team. All their game testing comes from players. It's free labor and smarter minds. This has been proven 2x with the nerfs to Corpulent and Madman.
Regarding Ash... the path to hell is always paved with good intentions. Let's face it, he's an addict. I enjoy his videos and especially the work his editor does, but he has a problem.
This is mainly an issue for whales. I’ve never been matched against other teams using Thundra, or if I have, they didn’t deal enough damage to be noticeable. Most of the time, we’re matched with players who deal similar amounts of damage. In my clan, everyone uses different teams because we just work with what we’ve got-we’re already using the variety of teams you’re suggesting. This is a pay-to-win game; let those players win. Honestly, I don’t think many people enjoy the VS features in this game. Personally, I hate Hydra Clash. It should be removed, and instead, we should have goals to reach for extra rewards.
Aside from your suggestion for Hydra, you’ve also proposed a Wixwell shield nerf, which impacts low spenders and free-to-play players who have invested in him. I have Wixwell but never use Yannica’s shield damage because I don’t have the time to keep experimenting and trying to make it work. Even if I did get it to work, I’d likely just end up matched with players doing a similar amount of damage anyway.
I saw that video last night from that wizard guy and was just shaking me head at his logic...was the first time ever even hearing of him..not sure if he is just trying to make himself stick out with controversy or something..both you and Ash got some serious defense in that guys comment section though ;)
I enjoy your content and ash's. You two have done nothing wrong. Wizard D is looking for attention to boost his channel. I watched his content and im personally not interested in it.
Yeah I watched his video yesterday and it's just sour grapes from a very mid "content creator"... nothing interesting or ground breaking in terms of content. Just whinging about not getting the views because he covers RSL like hundreds of others.
I saw one of the videos blaming saph for everything and after watching it my thoughts were: "saph is living absolutely rent free in these peoples heads" and "wow this is taken out of context". The video hating on ash got on my feed and I just clicked "Don't recommend channel" lol, wasnt going to give that probable trash a view.
he watched the Sam Solstice video, lol.
It's astounding to me that so many people seem to believe that you influence decisions made at Plarium, an $850 million company. Do they genuinely not understand how corporations work? It's crazy.
Keep up the great work, Saph. Love the content.
The Plarium devs will break things to hurt the community. When the CC's all say something needs to be fixed Plarium uses it as a chance to nerf us and pretend that they are trying to fix the problem.
I remember a TH-camr complaining about Wilxwell's shield, asking for it to be nerfed.
I don't think that's what he said. And what they did was I'm sure not what Saph would have wanted.
As for shard pulling videos, I just personally avoid them because I do agree, that they promote an unhealthy desire for spending in the game. Same with videos that highlight kraken accounts with "This Account is Worth X Amount!" titles. I won't support them with clicks or views... but I don't go crapping in the comments about it either.
II use my big boy brain, and go do other things with my time. Like normal adults do. If you are an adult, and you are harassing Ash, or any other CC, for their videos... you need to grow up, an get a life. You have the option to not watch those videos. You are not a child.
I really enjoyed running my trunda team. It took me over a year to get the speed tune i just couldn't get the speeds I seen on all the videos. I will miss watching my team and all the hard work I put into it.
This is the perfect situation when TWO things can be true.
1. are you Saph instrumental to the community with your deep dives into the codes and multipliers and work you do behind the scenes = yes
2. Did your deep dives into the codes and multipliers possibly lead to some unwanted changes = yes
I am a fan of yours. I am sorry if you feel negativity towards you. You deserve the most positivity. Thanks for all you do for Raid. Idk if it came from it but i found the Sam Solstice video a funny jab at you but i didn't feel malice behind it.
Saph i think you stoled my bike..and kicked my dog
I think what might be a positive change to serpent will would be to make it so that instead of decreasing damage it makes the head unkillable but in a way that can't be ignored for the duration of the buff and then as the battle goes on the duration becomes longer and on higher difficulties it starts at a higher duration this way the head will be guaranteed their turns which according to plarium is the very purpose of the serpent will buff but players can still deal damage to the heads
It’s so stupid to think plarium would actually care what any of the CCs think. You have some of the best content for raid. Keep up the great work. And I agree 1000% on Ash. He’s the most positive person out there trying to do something good, always real. Been watching him for years. He always gives something for a good cause, and always says do not whale out, I only do it because it’s part of my job.
Keep up the good work guys.
I come to this channel specifically for ur knowledge so thank u for giving me info I don't get elsewhere. Hopefully that giath testing happens soon 🤞
Shes getting masteries as we speak!
Saph don't worry about what anyone says about you - you do a great community service for the rest of us and we know you're well intentioned. You're one of the only cc's in Raid I watch because you back up your analysis with data and your videos don't annoy me with cut-scenes or clickbait.
Saph, I'm glad, and will continue to be glad that you share with the players what background nonsense Plarium does. If it weren't for your diligence, players won't have had any idea what new champs to prioritise. Thanks for all the math/mechanics input.
All I can think of is the video Sam Solstice put out
If Plarium had you in their team we wouldnt have these crazy sollutions/nerfs in the first place. Your the goat in Raid Saph, keep doing what you do.
In the dictionary under the definition of the word positive is a photo of Ash.
Saph, a lot of people watch and enjoy your videos. I like how you really look into how things work, what we can do to as a player to build teams and characters to meat the challenge of the content, and how things can be improved. Just keep doing your thing, not all of us share the negative opinions.
Saph, I pulled some voids the other day and didn't get a second Yumeko. Why did you do that to me?
Im just a menace everywhere!
Saph, you're 100% correct. What makes the game fun is when you have tons of different ways to beat a boss and do lots of damage and the recent changes to Hydra hasn't fixed Trunda, it's just destroyed tons of other teams. Among them ally attack teams, single target teams and yannica teams.
The fact that they nerfed a RARE champ because it did something trunda could do (albeit weaker) shows that they CAN nerf trunda.. they just dont want to
I personally love shard pull vids, because when I see someone pull 300 shards for 2 gold pops. It lets me feel good about saving mine. on the other topic no one can be at fault for what happens in a game they don't own. The devs make the decisions based off of what they feel the game needs. Sure they may listen to CC's a bit, but ultimately every decision is made based on how they can make the most from those that are paying.
You know, shard pull videos are great, they make me realize I’m not gonna get lucky with my 30-40 shards that I saved up over a period of time. So better to save them for a guarantee champ. It is fun to watch when someone hits something nice, but overall, they are great to realizing the truth about pulling shards.
Also, siege is not as fun as it could be. If there wasn’t a champion to be gained, our clan would not do it like we are. Once we get that champ, we will definitely be doing the least
Saph, just because you give an opinion on the game and that they listened to a part of your solution. Doesn't mean you are the reason that hydra is a mess atm. Keep it up and you do you :)
The content you put out is probably the most useful content in the game. The problems/game errors that you call out are for the betterment of the player base. If you catch an error you inform your viewers of the potential problem so that they don’t waste resources before a rework is pushed out. It is not your fault plarium does not test their game.
You're the problem 🤣😂 I've been playing this game since the beginning, and if anyone thinks plarium listens to the player base, they're crazy and the problem.
dude the problem is plarium. not content creators not users not the president not the king ahaha BLOODY PLARIUM !!
Another point I want to raise and I don't know if you will read this but I am a veteran summoners war player ( playing raid also for about 2 years ) in summoners war we have the same problem where back in the day it was all about building diferent unit having fun trying diferent stuff and there you go it works ! now it feels like if you got that unit and this and that and you follow the meta that is all done. I would say that in summoners war we still have alternative but yet wont get the same result even tho when I say result I mean speed to complete this or that. in raid its worse, like you said its either trunda team of get fuckef and your damage is far far away ... not fun but efficient . the problem is no everyone has trunda and its a bloody legendary !!
WHAT i MEAN WITH ALL THIS is that usually this happens in those games when they get "old" the patern is the same and I tried multiple og games like theseover the years. Who is going to change that ? Godforge maybe ? another game ? I don't know but this is a fact.
Yeah as a game develops you get "solved" problems and the drive to make new challenges can lead to "this is just the only way" doesnt mean it has to be but its a development thing that happens
When was the last time anyone pulled a Trunda, the shard pull system is the true problem.
I've had her 6 star soul since January, now if I could just pull her.
Boozor pulled her on this 1+1.
I really want to pull her but have not in five years
I got my second Trunda this spring. Mars or april I think.
The first one I got back in 2021.
Haven't done abything with the second Trunda until now, other champions have had priority before her.
Trying to build her as a cc/burner to complement Trunda 1's raw damage build.
Funnily enough, Trunda isn't in any of my Hydra teams yet, in part because even the first Trunda just have a 3 star blessing and you need to have the 6 star blessing to really push her A2 damage in Hydra.
Hey, mate! I just wanna say that u doing great job for the community. I'm watching u since the very first video and I think u've done for community education more than everyone else.
I appreciate u a lot and hope to see more of u'r content.
Cheers ❤
Don't forget you screwed up Fortus to. My first void leggo to come out of a shard and total trash. So excited it was going to be buffed but Plarium did what you suggested and its definitely one of worst void leggo in entire game. There are much better epics. YOU DID THAT.
I would prefer to see a rework of Trunda that gives her burn activation on the second A3 hit and for the A2, it repeats the first hit as an AoE and spreads Hex.
For what is worth, I've always thought and appreciated about you that you're shining a light on all these things, even if I do not necessarily always agree with all your takes, which is ok.
Oof, hitting out at Ash considering the way he actually does shard pulls is a bit ehh
Love you Saph. I do disagree with your opinion of possible changes often, not cause they are "bad" ideas, but you often play the devil's advocate. They just feel like an "engineered" response to how to fix areas rather than a fun/creative way to fix.
Absolutely fine to disagree with me :) I enjoy the perspectives people give that is healthy
I have a +4 trunda with 10.5k atk 400+ critdam in mercyless zeal was 100 billlions easy key and agree with u 100% , Trunda should have been nerfed right away /CT
I appreciate that u bring issues to light and provide solutions. The sad part is that it appears that the people in charge do not listen. Looking forward to seeing u continue this at GodForge.
Saph LOOKS to be a little spark that started the wild fire, that is this hydra mess, since he was the main cc who talked about that aspect most often because that is his main content. That is it. Nothing more, nothing less. A little spark by itself is nothing depends what is around it. The Plarium, unfortunately, was a heap of dried up grass that was just waiting for something to start fire and jumped on it. I knew Plarium was going to mess it up when they said they were working on "COMPLEX FIX" instead of simple fix. I mean they miss simple things all the time, yet they are working on complex fix? A recipe for a disater and we have current hydra mess. Since people often likes to look for something or someone to blame for anything they don't like, Saph was chosen, (not the other Chosen) I think the ONLY thing Saph is definitely responsible for is lowered max for Wixwell shield and I am sure Saph will own to it. The Plarium owns 99.999% of the current hydra mess.
On shard pulling video, so freaking true! Im 100% F2P and never feels like I need to spend even after seeing Smiley Ash HH Nubs MTGJedi Kenpachi Boozor Burritoslayer Tyrauku Kadsistency or any other CC pulling video, its just the dopamine rush thats fun.
They should have put block damage on the restored heads. Then we would have had to strip/steal the buff or use ignore block damage champs. It would have forced trunda teams to use less than ideal supports and given everyone else other team builds to try.
Also the devour HP bar is the most infuriating part of the game mode.
Keep doing what you've always done. We need a voice that is interested in the game, and not just themselves, whether it's from players, or CC's. Balance is fun imo.
I really respect you for sticking to your guns. I agree with you on everyone needing to know the tricks of the game.
Saph, I 100% appreciate your contribution to the community. Thanks
well said, it's too bad people only hear what they want to hear
Refund / reset scrolls would be trivial to do, and then they can just fix Trunda and everyone will be happy again
I appreciate you identifying and articulating issues in the game. You are NOT the problem. Keep up your great work. 👍
Honestly I've given up playing raid properly currently. I log on do clan boss and my hydra keys and CVC. That's it, can't be bothered all of it after the hydra changes. I spent too many resources on champs for specifically hydra.
There are alot of aspects of Raid that are just not possible to know about without CCs like you Sapph. Maybe it's a comment on Raid's gameplay itself, but even things like accuracy requirements are nowhere to be found in game, and the average player doesn't have the knowledge or skills to be looking into the game code to figure out what a boss's accuracy/resistance is. I think Raid owes a lot of its success to all you CCs, because at least personally I probably wouldn't have become a long term Raid player without the supplemental information about the game like Boss stats that the HH website offers. Not to mention, leveling, gearing, ascending, masteryifying, and booking even just a single champ takes time and resources, and all just to find that that champ doesn't work like you thought they did, that feeling always sucks. So I find just all the community insight about champs, alot of which gets filtered through all of you CCs, gives me a much better sense of direction on who I want to use and max out first.
I find it somewhat hypocritical to point out Trunda to be THE problem, when the next level of champs (which tend to be Marius & Teox, maybe 1-2 more) are just as high above the next available tier of champs in terms of damage capabilities.
We are probably close to having 1000 Legendary & Mythicals in the game now - and while i do understand that there's monetary aspects involved its still somewhat mind-boggling to me that the top results can only be achieved by less then 5 selected Damage-Dealers.
As controversial it is the decapitated head hp limit is not from devil. Without that, everyone's best team was hitting easy for 100 billions. Now actually worth running your team on the higher hydra difficulty.
AUX 1 says "allo"! Love when we pop up in your vids, mate.
Numbers don't lie, its not your fault, as an analyst myself i understand that things should just work the way they are intented or rather worded in the context of raid. Feel like folks are just fed up and have picked up pitch forks to just nail one unfortunate.
just got +3 whisper. i too am waiting for her full unlock( and crossing finger i can get 3 accessory to change from relentless to full merciless
the solution is and always has been give everyone a random mythical on their next mythical pull. Most players don't even have one.
Would have been so easy to fix just by making Serpents will cap any incoming damage at 10% like the max HP cap.
I really appreciate all your thoughts on content and I find it nonsense of people point at you. I think its just bad human behaviour as they can't find some of the right Plarium person. Please keep on with ideas and your helping the community is much appreciated by the silent majority.
We love you, Saph! we love and appreciate what you do very much! i actually wish Plarium actually take your suggestions and not listen half way like those blaming you.
A CC calling out a CC for making shard videos is absolutely diabolical. 😬
Most honest and ethical CC and it is much appreciated. Keep being you as you are one of the best. Much love💗💗💗
It is very sad for ANY player to go after ANY content creator for ANY reason. Opinions are opinions. We all have them. Saph's content, imo, is some of the best. He uses actual numbers from the game to make things make sense on why they work the way they do. These result in proof that something is broken. All of that still comes down to Saph being just a content creator. He isn't a dev. Doesn't work for Plarium. Plarium doesn't need to listen to anybody on what we think of different parts of the game. They could go do whatever they please with the game, even if it kills off some content. Every single content creator I watch have all stated opinions on what they thought of the hydra changes. None of them had positive opinions. Doesn't make sense to go after Saph over it when he wasn't the only one saying these things.
Saph, I love your content!
Saph saw that Plarium needed to fix their furniture, Saph gave Plarium a Hammer
Then Plarium used the hammer to commit mass-unalive to a lot of innocent people
Saph is clearly up to blame for that 100% !!!
Saph, you are a gem among CC's. Always be you and do what you do!
Wait, what? Who doesn't like Ash??? What kind of monster you'd have to be not to at least think of him as a super nice and positive guy.
Saph from my small perspective...we like your nerdness. Shard pulls are great, i love watching others pull. Your a great voice, i appreciate you as we know your working overtime...all ...the....time. F those haters.
I appreciate you calling out bugs-it’s a critical part of improving the game. However, I’ve noticed that you often suggest solutions alongside the bug report as part of your constructive feedback. While it’s great to provide ideas, it can put you in the spotlight if Raid implements your suggestion and it ends up introducing new issues or making the content harder.
My advice would be to continue pointing out bugs publicly but share your proposed solutions directly with them. This way, the focus stays on the issue rather than potential fallout from the suggested fixes.
People wouldn’t be as pissed off if they hadn’t put a a competitive component behind us no one really give a shit. They also took advantage of the 1015 next bullshit people spend thousands of dollars on chasing some of these champions and that’s rightfully so I don’t agree that it should be targeted back at you, most of us have made suggestions
You are doing just fine. Changes to hydra/trunda were needed, we didn't get the right changes and that's not your fault. Be Happy and Safe :)
I love your input, ideas and critical mind when it comes to this game - one of my favorite creators - thank you for all that you do!
I appreciate what the CCs are doing in trying to help direct the game in a good direction with their feedback. I know plarium halfway acknowledged their changes were awful, and I know you are somewhat limited in what you can talk about, but in communications with them are you getting any impression that they are actually listening to how they can fix what they have done and intend to do so?
I agreed with all the things you said about hydra, even the serpent's will proposals but how they implement things is always the issue. It's like they deliberately used your ideas and made them very horrible to just make you look bad and for everyone to not ever question anything or else they will make the game a living hell. I do disagree with you about teox though, he is way too powerful with his turn meter manipulation when my arbiter gets outsped by him because of debuffs that get put on at the start of the round and then he just kills anything in his path. People were pulling multiple copies of him and then they changed the way the headline champion could be pulled after that. I have a faction unity champion and he's not even close to be so powerful and IMO he is maybe the next best one.
people don't understand that without Saph's work the game would be worse than it is, not the other way around.
we do need someone who refutes the text in this game: how it is written and how it is actually interpreted comparing it to how it should've been written, coded or interpreted. how this confirms in a game and how does the multipliers work in a game explained in text.
it gives a better view of the game and points out how it can be played better
sadly there is currently one guy that's doing that job whom the majority of the community rely on his work -directly or otherwise- and that guy is him.
keep up the hard work mr Saph the destroyer of champions ❤
Sorry you are dealing with this. Plarium is the problem and the worst part is, it's intentional. They are a billion dollar professional gaming organization who knows exactly what they are doing. They want our attention on Live arena (pvp makes money) and the new clan boss not spending hours a week on the hydra. They nerfed hydra rewards/time/fun. They significantly buffed Live Arena rewards, Have a new/frustrating/p2w clan boss coming and are Fixing Siege (pvp makes money off whales). This is their plan to drive spending. PS - check back over the last years this is (intentionally) how the community always feels in early November, before the the content and spending binge of the holidays.
Saph, I genuinely enjoy your vids and am always excited when you post because I'm about to learn something. Thanks a lot for all you do for the community.
No, No, No... *everything* wrong in the world is your fault!! ;) No matter what any content creator suggests, it is up to Plarium to determine how the game should work. If we dont like what they give us then it is their fault and not CCs. Thanks for the content and keep up the good work, it is appreciated!
Screw the haters, You're Awesome Saph. If they listened to you properly they wouldn't be in this situation with the community.
Unfortunately, haters gonna hate. I watch a ton of CC content on this game, and I find myself not watching the doomsayers and consistently negative creators because I watch these videos for entertainment or in-game educational value. The negative nellies are not worth my time as they offer little to no entertainment. I appreciate what you, Ash, Colred, Hell Hades, Nub, Skratch, YST and most other CC's do and hope that these other guys can simply fade away to insignificance.
Do you think Yelagrina may be good for Hydra and perhaps the new boss?
Saph, you're the man. In MY personal opinion, YOU are the single most consistent champion for game balance that this game has ever had. People might not like what you suggest, people might not agree with your takes, but I have NEVER seen you truly advocate for something OTHER than balancing the game and making the game work as it says it's supposed to work.
Keep doing you, man. Maybe Plarium will give you test server access!
See Saph over here being a grey Jedi. Bring balance to the force bud!
You make some of the best videos there is about the game, some people just like to complain and blame others for stuff.
Nerfs and boosts happen in most games and at times they go wrong, really dont think Plarium need to refund people for a champion because of it.
I personally also like watching shard pull videos at times when i just sit down with a coffee and want to watch something easy, its fun seeing others getting good champions and dont really see how it promotes for anyone else to spend, if i want to spend on shards i will, if i dont feel like it then i wont, what someone else is doing doesnt change that.
I think Saph you are so important to the community, you should not get bothered to much by some persons not honoring the work.
We have content creators, tell you that 430 speed is to slow. We have content creators that with a smile talk about how unfair their top 10 clan is acting on hydra clash, siege and other modes by manipulating their matchmaking to get lower clans. We have... i wont go on...
I think with your permanent fight on balance and better game design without just showing off some shiny cc things to get more fanboys, exposes you to some persons with bad behaviour. Having an opinion these days in the internet seems to always result in someone try to put you down. You are always attackable when you have an opinion, and it takes courage.
My biggest hope is, that these guys are a vocal minority, they like to shout out loud and a lot - but i am still convinced that 99% of all RSL gamers are very thankfully for all the things you bring to the game. Is it game mechanics, secret changes, auto-equip champions or the optimizer. Paired with not just bringing content to aquire more fanboys, but really interessting opinions and techniques - dont let bad comments hit you to hard please.
On the other side i am pretty convinced we can blame you for rigging some things in HH tournaments, global food crisis or global warming - just in case ;)
Saph uses spreadsheets and math. And now my boss is asking me to use spreadsheets and math. Content creators have a responsibility to the public to never allow more than 3% of their videos to show spreadsheets and math.
"I'm trying to level the playing field " yeah worked fine with the serpents will buff and the ally attackers and the hp life bars of the heads made it all more fun for erveryone right ??.
srsly you give plarium such suggestions with 100% dmg negate and you wonder afterwards what they did with this ,a disaster thats what hydra is today no fun at all.
to talk about fairness in a gacha game where you can buy shards to the extent to +4 champs and so on is very ironic
Where did he advocates for the AA attack changes or any of the others besides the serpents will? Which in the end would have almost any impact if it was just that
just wonder, what type of content 'raid content creators' help to implement, or was suggested by them which is already in the game???
saph i think you are the best cc out of the lot. the information and the knowledge is absolutely amazing. you built the optimiser and are just the brains. hope people start to leave your opinions alone. keep doing you
I suspect they are actually undercover plarium employees who are trying to drive Saph away from raid. Cuz Saph keeps exposing their bad practices.
People are giving too much credence to your influence on Plarium, when they won't even let you into the CC programme
The guy who called out Ash for shard pulling LITTERALLY STARTRD THAT VIDEO BY PULLING SHARDS. As I posted on his video - he was clout chasing
