Shurima Specialization Poll; So many posts. So little time.

This is in accordance with the reintroduction of World Systems

Poll here.

Essentially, this poll is picking the two major sub-themes of Shurima. Insight is the core Strength for what I imagine to be fairly obvious reasons. Espionage is Shurima's weakness for again what should be somehwat obvious reasons. The soft strength is a choice between two stats, and allows a faction to shape its path through the arc. The two stats are sub-themes of the faction in general. In this, you have the opportunity to shape Shurima future decisions in all arcs. Feel special.

Note, there will be a follow up poll on which stat will be the strength for this arc.

The way I see it, Noxus is going to have us beat on the battlefield, so putting some points into insight and production seems like a smart idea.

Edit: Didn't see our core streangth was insight.... That'll teach me to jump in and post immediately.

Commerce or production would be best imo. We need more money, as money is the basis for much of our military. Also, who money is a great bit of leverage in any negotiation.

After insight, Politics should be our core strength. We don't shout SHURIMA constantly because of our production or commerce.

Well, we get two more... We CAN have Politics and one of the money ones, you know.

I think Politics and Production would be a nice combination for us.

The poll has been concluded. Shurima's soft strengths will be Commerce and Production. Expect another poll to determine which will be the strength of this arc(or if you wish to raise espionage over these two) today.

The details are here.

I added an extra word word.

I'm reading the poll results... why does it say "Commerce LOSES to Military 1-13." when Military is in last place? :3

This polling is sorta voodoo in that way. If I had to guess, military by itself might overtake the other two, but when the ends result involve two, it gets downgrade heavily. Don't really know though.

I don't really understand any of the summary stuff, like "loses" to whatever, or how it gets to the final result. But when I look at the raw data, only 3 votes wanted Military in the top two, as opposed to 9 for Production, 13 for Commerce, and 6 for Politics. I'm guessing the whole voodoo stuff behind the scenes is more complicated than that, but if I had to guess the thing where Military is listed as "beating" both Commerce and Production is some sort of mistake since it's clearly untrue and doesn't seem to have affected the outcome.

I noticed it in one of the other polls too - I suspect it's a coding error. Initially in the arc when we were using this for champ pickups it said beat as the first sentence and loses as the second. I think someone tried to edit it to say how other choices lost to the choice made and only half-coded it?
