Kog is interesting and fun to play, but very squishy.  Any tips on not dying with him?

[Jopax]

UGH!

Why did i have to buy fucking Vlad instead of Renekton, Galactic Renekton is on sale now, and i don't have the IP to buy him before the sale ends ;__;

[Toaster]

Better start farming then.

As Umiman said, Ghost and Flash work. At least for many champs which have no stuns/dashes, like Teemo or Kog'Maw.

For items, Frozen Mallet is a must for Kog'Maw. It just makes him so hard to escape, due to his huge range and slowing attacks. Bloodrazors of course as well.

For boots, pick Mercury Treads or Boots of Swiftness (+3). You don't need Berserker's Greaves, as they don't give that much attack speed.

The new Wit's End is also great for Kog. If you need armor besides bloodrazors, consider Frozen Heart. It might sound odd, but Kog'Maw's ultimate uses mana quickly. CDR is never a bad thing neither.


EDIT: Additionally, get at least 2 bloodthirsters and a black cleaver, if you want physical dmg. Lifesteal keeps you up quite well.

God damn Lee Sin is the best jungler ever, it's impossible to do any wrong with him.

I also start in the enemy's jungle every time with him and it always seems to work, so that kind of slows down their jungle while speeding up mine.
And then of course he's one of those jerks you can build mostly tanky with only one or two AD items because Riot just loves tanky DPS so much.

(Also the guy in umiman's avatar looks incredibly familiar and I wish to know where he retrieved the .gif!)

[Jopax]

Also about Kog, You really only need two offensive items, Bloodrazor and Malady, maybe get Stark's for some lifesteal (i still miss the days when malady gave lifesteal, was such a great item, now it's just fine), boots of swiftness and then build defences, FM is also nice but most games are over before i really need it, besides if someone escapes your attack range just bombard them with R.

@Lumbajak: Its a girl. You can find the gif at 4gifs under the name psycho girl.

Also yea, hotshot's story is pretty ridiculous. He pretty much gave up on college for the next few years just to play LoL. We've hit the age of e-sports. WCG and similar stuff are getting a lot of attention (and money) out of it.

[umiman]

Lumbajak: I know right? Why was I not made aware of Lee Sin's awesomeness until now? I'm having some problems getting the double tempest macro to work so I can do it in low latency situations.

Dakk: I was quite shocked when I heard how much he earned.

Edit: Oh no! They fixed double tempest!

[Jopax]

What was double tempest anyway?

[cerapa]

I assume you could tempest twice.

[umiman]

If you rapidly hammered the E key as Lee Sin, you could do his ground slam twice at double the energy cost. It increased his damage output early game dramatically and made him a super jungler on the same level as Nunu as well as gave him Mordekaiser level farming ability.

You know what sucks? You can still do it in US servers. Only EU fixed it... Why.... I want my double tempest back...

To be fair, I never used double tempest in an actual fight because the energy cost was so high.

[cerapa]

Oh the joys of people of extremely varying levels queueing together...

Just had a game where our side had an Ashe in mid, and the enemy team had a Ryze. Ashe was level 10, Ryze was 30, needless to say, Ashe fed. By the end Ryze could take 66% of my health off with his Overload, and he was really damn tanky.

[Jopax]

Even more fun is when both teams have a lvl 30 and a someone very low.Last game for example the enemy team had a pretty badass Lee Sin while we had a crazy good Vlad, both teams had feeders, on our side it was Vayne who just died, nothing else, never farmed never killed, just died while their team had Yi and Akali who were stomped rather hard by my Jarvan and Teemo.
We won in the end, not much they could do against a fully stacked Vlad with some 10 odd kills and only two deaths ^^

[umiman]

Fed Vlad is horrible to fight. I think the only one scarier is Akali. Maybe Jax.
