thank you for having me! CATT is still on very early development phase, and there is still a lot to round out, but I appreciate the honor of being featured!
First Developer Spotlight is live! And we're opening with one of our favorites.
CATT (@itscatt_yt): a real-time transcription and translation tool for VTubers from Japan and Korea streaming to Western and SEA audiences, built with Deepgram.

@Conor_D_Dart nah, Argon is a big model, it was meant to be on Opus level. emphasis on the "meant to be" part. in reality, it's much slower, hallucinate a whole bunch, and has the Gemini's Signature Curse of Insubordination™
I would literally use 6 Luna or Muse Spark over it
One of the best and most underrated and Suisei songs.
This was one of the songs that she personally wrote and holy moly she cooked... the lyrics are simply amazing and very deep...

oh, this is so cute! I do feel like a little Pikmin when I was a first grader. I swear the old illustrations from our national curriculum are all adorable!!
as Vietnam makes the baffling decision to include AI in its education processes and products, i find myself seeking what i grow up with:
so these are based on watercolor illustrations from my elementary school textbooks!
@plsgivemejinx yea, I can agree with this, especially execution. if they drafted an engage like Sion or something, that could've worked. if they played around Vayne a bit more and get him ahead, that could've worked.

I think the hate on Doran is undeservedly outsized, especially on Game 4.
There are multiple problems with the game, yes, but I don't think he was inting the way people making him out to be.
1. the duo ad draft: perhaps the biggest issue. I think T1 has had really good success playing around Peyz with Doran playing bruisers. for them to abandon that to go duo adc is really strange. also, I feel like he had to play Vayne as a weakside, which makes no sense to me.
2. that game, something was off about Oner's Wukong. he engaged really early and really deep almost every single combat. what I really like about Oner is that his initiations are usually quite easy for T1 to follow up. not this game. almost every combat, I saw T1 split into two halves, Oner and Faker dealing with BLG's backline, Keria, Doran and Peyz dealing with the frontline. that's really bad news for Peyz, since all three of them are quite squishy, and Doran being an adc with no hard cc, there is no real way to stop BLG from eating Peyz's ass.
those issues I mentioned, I feel like is outside of Doran's control. I didn't think he made that many mechanical mistakes either. yet I feel like people are putting the blame squarely on him and him alone. it's unfair. just how many hats do you want him to wear? threatening Bin, protecting Peyz, dealing damage all at the same time. that's impossible, especially when he did not get that much resources in the laning phase.
ultimately, T1 did not feel like T1 that game. that's why they lose. I don't think blindly kicking a top laner will fix that.

I did go through this in another reply, but I want to elaborate a bit more
why is Vayne a Renek counter? because she has tools to disengage in Q + E that doubles as kill pressure when paired with R. looking at the match, Vayne always have to burn R and/or Flash to survive Skarner, leaving him no kill pressure. he did not get any help (e.g ganks) to get ahead either. how does he get kills then? and when a Vayne is behind, she needs to survive until very late to come online again. T1 got two dragons early, I think they should have abandoned the next two dragons to buy time for Doran and Peyz to scale, but the third dragon ended up being Mountain and I guess they felt like they can't give that up and ended up forcing really bad fights. so Doran didn't get to play strongside, he didn't get to farm, he didn't get to scale. the result that transpired was inevitable.
let's go one by one:
1. Q into 3 people: I assume you mean the combat where Oner and Faker towerdived a Renek that has GA. he tried to Q into it to finish off the kill. he gambled and died. it is a very normal play though, I am willing to bet if Faker do an exact same play you would not bat an eye.
2. this is exactly what I'm talking about. when you pick counter, you are supposed to get help and support to get ahead. instead, the first 15 mins of the game he basically got ignored and played like a weak side. his lane is constantly haunted by Skarner, and he keeps having to pop ult/flash to get away. how, then, do you suggest him to play the game? your ult is down, your window of bullying Renek (lv 1-6) is over, your champ is useless once fall behind until very late game.
3. crit build: I don't agree with this build either, but it is the standard build this Worlds. TheShy built it as well when he played Vayne. the theory behind it is you want to maximize burst damage in the first three strike (Fiendbolt's guaranteed crit + Reaver's sheen) and you do it as fast as possible (Hexplate's attack speed after ult). I agree that if he got ahead, he should have gone with BORK on-hit. but again, he got weaksided and if he built that, I'm sure that his damage would have been even worse.
I am not saying Doran is without fault. I am saying he does not deserve the dogpiling people have been doing to him. I do not hold any agression to you either and hope we can talk a bit more peacefully.
