I wanted this since the second game I played. So excited! I can actually get good with one champion with practice now!

Now we just need to match players by attitude. Every time you say something mean to a teammate, you get put into more negative games. Last night was horrible, then I went to muting half my team both games >_<

This gets mentioned in complete seriousness all the time, though often with more of a "shove all the trolls into camps" vibe to it. Trouble is, most players get more negative the more negative the people around them are, so it just turns into a downward spiral.

Good to see you getting into the habit of muting them, unfortunate as that sounds. :x

I was mostly joking but I could see it being considered seriously by some people.
It was really annoying until I realized the Scoreboard has a one-click mute button.

New Team Builder is really neat, you get to play the role you want in exchange for a tiny bit longer wait (nobody likes support or jungle, apparently). Plus, since people aren't disgruntled that they didn't get their role, there is a bit less infighting among teammates. I haven't tried to play anything but typical TankTop/APMid/Supp+ADCBot/Jungle, curious if anyone has played in any alternate meta strategies using the builder system out there?

[Flying Dice]

Not really, mostly because the meta still tends to be enforced now that there's a person on the team with the power to arbitrarily boot you from lobby if they don't like your pick.

Today I learned that I am a terrible Wukong because I run into fights way too often. I am also a terrible Wukong because I'm never in fights and I'm always farming.

[quinnr]

So, I'm getting better at Jinx, but I die so much, too. >_< I'm just going to sit at the spawn and throw rockets at the other spawn for the whole match, hoping I kill people.

Seriously, though, so squishy, so much damage. I go on steaks of dying, followed by single-handedly taking out the entire enemy team while the rest of my team runs away.

There's going to be a sale on April 1st for a Mystery Skin for a champion you own.

I'm sensing April Foolery going on here >_<

[penguinofhonor]

Maybe they'll make Urfwick available through mystery gift.

[Fikes]

Wow. They released a game mode for a week called rapid fire.

It is hilarious.

80% cool down reduction on everything, no mana costs, increased damage. It is just chaos. I am really enjoying it.

[quinnr]

That's...beautiful, actually. Ults have like a 30 second cooldown, and everything else is just...insane.

[Fikes]

It is seriously entertaining. Everyone should play a thousand games.

[Jopax]

Friendly tip though. Ban Jayce.

He is completely and utterly broken, like, Nidalee levels of broken, more broken than Kata.

If he's in your lane you may as well go AFK because as soon as he hits level two, you'll be getting energy blasts in your face every two seconds. He doesn't even have to aim ffs, he'll fire so many of them that some of them are bound to hit. To say nothing of his rapid fire thingy. Last match, it had a CD shorter than it's duration, did 600+ damage with every hit (with a crit possible) on max attack speed.

Seriously, it was funny at first, but then you fire off a random Q and chunk someone for half their HP.

[Skyrunner]

And nobody bans the true op Karma.

*ditches blind pick*

Just a thing I've been wondering about - why even take blind pick over draft mode? Honest question, because I remember switching from blind pick to draft and my PvP experience improved by, like, roughly 89.61%.

Also, I wonder how Kass would play on rapid fire...you know, Kass with his trademark SILENCE?

(still can't get over it, forever qq)
