Hey, i find the video funny.

Like i said, either a "HA!" Moment or a small laugh. If this video made you laugh extremely hard to the point where you needed to catch a breath... Well i don't think i can continue without somehow making it sound insulting...

This video isn't funny at all. It sounds less like a parody, and more like the video guy literally doesn't understand what he's talking about. Seriously, you could make this video in about an hour. It's lame, with almost no production values. The biggest part is how it doesn't actually show League outside from a few stills, which doesn't help how the video gives the impression of only superficial knowledge of how the game works.

The worst part, however, is that the premise of the post is just plain wrong. You can miss ultimates in both League and Smite, but it's way less likely to happen in Smite.

Do you know what IS funny? Videos that parody League that actually know what they're talking about. Ever heard of the phrase, "it's funny because it's true?" Comedy is supposed to make us laugh at ourselves, not facepalm at the writer.

Alternatively, comedy can be spun to make you laugh at others, which is toxic, and I think was the purpose of the video and the video poster.


It's a joke. It's a joke. It's a joke. It's not SUPPOSED to give ACTUAL reasons as to why not to play League.

Sigh. I love how a joking video poking fun at some criticisms of League gets you shot on this here Smite forum.
Thanks to Ferrum for making the sig pic! He's beast af people.

Arent jokes mostly funny because there is some truth in it ?

However i don't like the video, mostly because it is bad edited and this Voice just works on MLG videos. But thats just me.

@the slightly pissed off sandwich.


I'm going to start off by saying, don't ever call me that again. Just like you found this video 'not funny,' I found your comment snide and condescending.

Secondly, don't be a downer; if you don't find this video (and assuming it isn't racially or otherwise actually offensive) funny, don't be that guy who thinks he's the best thing since sliced bread and go and say (in a nasally voice), "its actually not funny ->INSERT PETTY REMARK<--."

I would really like to think that on SmiteFire we are above being jerks to each other. Seriously, it isn't imperative that you judge every comment posted on the forums.

@Subzero008

There's something I don't understand about you. Your writing is eloquent and well organized; it flows and for the most part does a great job of informing people of your opinions. Why does it always seem to be negative?

Why can't we all live in peace... as a wise pudding once said. It wouldn't kill anyone to be nice every once and a while.

Fine i'll call you a different variation on you emotion and bread situation. (I do this to practicly anyone with food related names...
Exept TT... He is TT. And if i run out of variations and you found none of them funny then i'll just go back to angry toast ok?)

Okay annoyed bancuet.

Im starting to find it increasingly annoying that people are implying i have a huge ego... I can tell you a long depressing tale why my ego is not larger then me... Well atleast you didn't say i have a god complex so i'll take it.


I don't judge good, smart or well crafted post, only the bad ones, for which i always state my reasons.


Also the dessert is not wise...

If you want to continue this conversation please send me a pm lik i requested.

I will go into full detail about what i said here.

(Including what i said about the dessert)

Yeah... I know the joke is all over the internet, but the autistic kid joke made me cringe a little. Maybe it's just my personal experience with autistic people, but I guess each person has their own degree of humor.

Here's a better example of a funny video, that does lightly mock League, but is, you know, actually funny.




Why it works:

Voice doesn't drive ears to suicide.

Subject matter is accurate and not superficial, as we can see by the actual quotes and clips.

Video is aesthetically pleasing, not a constant loop of images and zoom-ins.


At least his bra knows how to support. I literally cried from laughing so hard.
