Speaking of LeBonk. I want to do this team setup:

Mid: LeBonk
Bot: Alistar + Veigar. Alistar takes mana manipulator.
Top: Nasus
Jungle: Anyone

I think it would be so terrifying.

Unless LeBonk/Veigar get REALLY fed, you'll probably be relying on Nasus to carry everyone.
How exactly does LeBonk not get fed? That must be one shitty LeBonk. All she has to do is press Q and R and someone dies.

And Veigar getting fed is why it's a Veigar + Alistar bot lane. Alistar is just there to help keep Veigar alive so he can farm and proceed to rape everyone with Nasus later. Veigar is also there for his amazing initiate with AOE stun.

The strategy is simply to have LeBonk and the jungler carry the team through early to mid game (which is freaking easy for LeBonk). After 25 minutes or so, Nasus and Veigar will clean shop. Considering how OP Nasus is right now, I don't think it's a very difficult task.

Just played a game as Cho'gath laning against Skarner and Poppy.  That was really relaxing.  Negligible damage output and a few well-timed feasts got them too scared to go near me.

Skarner seriously needs a damage buff.  He doesn't do anything.

I disagree. His damage is pretty up there.

Early game it's kinda crap though and he really needs the Sheen. Once he has Sheen he can be quite a threat.

One of the reasons why I said I find him very boring is that other than his ult, he has no shock and awe presence, which may be making people believe he does no damage (same thing happens with Trundle). For example, you compare him with Xin Zhao. Xin Zhao does that incredible insane burst damage that makes people fear and respect him. Skarner doesn't have that sort of thing. Most likely people don't regard him very high on the threat scale because of that lack of burst damage.

I think this is wrong though. He has immense consistent dps and it's very difficult to escape him. He just sticks to you like glue. He might not be as good as others at 1v1 but he's probably more useful in a teamfight because of his consistent AOE slows and dps.

Goddamn finally the server transfers are available.

I probably can't play at all anymore though, as I haven't played a "serious" match in like 3 weeks.

As long as you remember how to run around in circles around the enemy and spam /l, it's all good man.

OP Nasus just raped Mantheon in a solo lane. Before that OP Nasus raped Irelia in a solo lane. Who's next?

Edit: Rape tally for OP Nasus solo top:
- Skarner
- Irelia
- Mantheon
- Jarman
- Garen
- Wukong
- Galio
- Brand

Hrm hrm... I think the easiest was Irelia strangely.

Fuck riot, seriously :D

I'm planning on making a video guide on Backdooring. It'll have links to short "spotlight" videos of good backdoorers. Now, I need some suggestions on who should be spotlighted. At least 15 champs.

My own suggestions:
  • Master Yi
  • Pantheon
  • Nocturne
  • Twisted Fate
  • Mundo
  • Rammus
  • Yorick I DON'T OWN HIM, SO IF SOMEONE ELSE COULD RECORD THE SPOTLIGHT I'D APPRECIATE IT.
  • Teemo
  • Nasus I SUCK AS NASUS, SO IF SOMEONE ELSE COULD RECORD THE SPOTLIGHT I'D APPRECIATE IT.


Also for those who are interested in how it is gonna be like: It'll have few parts which explain different things in this style ways:
  • Part 1: Backdooring: What does it mean?
    • Basic explanation; I'll tell what it means to backdoor, its morale and uses and that kind of stuff.
    • Tower facts. Includes some math, such as towers' damage and durability.
  • Part 2: How & when to backdoor
    • Info on how to backdoor, such as ward placements for protection, securing your way out, timing your backdoor with enemy minions waves.. Also explains when to backdoor. If all enemies are mia, it might not be wise to BD and so on.
  • Part 3: How to counter backdooring
    • Self explanatory. Feel free to tell your tips on how to counter it, just in case it would make the guide better.
  • Part 4: "Can I backdoor?"
    • Explanation of champion types and their roles in backdooring: DPS:es (and mages with good AP, and possibly lichbane) deal the dmg, tanks take the tower hits, supports heal/protect tanks or buff damage dealers..
    • Some explanation on items well suited for backdooring.
  • Part 5: Backdoor Spotlights!
    • This isn't a part itself like the others, but instead contains links (annotations!) to separate videos which explain the item builds and strategies on good backdoorers. This will contain links to 15 top backdoor champs (decided with your help) and the description will contain rest of the links, for champions not included (due to too many good possible backdoorers, new champs, etc.)


Pageking fuck yeah, now this won't get buried so easily!

Isn't Sivir a great pusher, but as a backdoorer just like every other ranged carry?
