They left to make him die. And make him loose, nothing else

[Pandarsenic]

Just won a game HARD as Varus. Team intentionally got me mad fed. By half-hour mark, I was able to 1v3 and win because I had a BT, a PD, a LW, and the BF sword for my future IE, so anyone who tried to get up in my business got pew-pew-E'd.

Shyvana seems to have great personal effectiveness, but I have been repeatedly disappointed by the team fight and late game performance

On a positive note, my friends seem to excel at troll strategies. Double jungling is the new thing. We've done Nautilus/Shen and Alistar/Blitzcrank, stomped both games. Our AD Lulu in bot went 15/1. I went 4/1/21 as Alistar.

Translation about troll strategies:

Your allies have no idea what to do, but neither does your enemy.

Breaking the meta is real good for rising in soloque.

A long time ago, Someone asked me what the best summoner was, for a ranged AD (excluding flash, because always flash.)

I answered heal.

Took a time long time for people to take heal on ranged ad, but lo and behold, now they do.

Meta shift op, give people good ideas.

What can help you get a kill if you loose most of your hp?
Heal.

What can help you get cs if you loose in lane?

Heal.


It's there for the worst case scenario.
It helps that supports no longer get stupid powerful sustain.

Apparently the new champion is indeed Jayce, and he is technooriented, and probably another tanky dps - his voicework includes things like "face the future, strength through progress, bring down the hammer".

Here is his voicework:

Also with the advent of Pulsefire Ezreal my Dominion games are full of shitty ezreals arguing about going AP top and dying a million times in the process, guess I won't be bying him for a while.

Looking at the flat skin art can make some champs really unattractive...

Spoiler: New Karma skin! (click to show/hide)

Just found surrender at 20 and the unofficial patch notes on reign of gaming and figured I'd link them in case other hadn't found them yet. Old news I know, but I've been out of town and I didn't see changed linked in the thread, just talked about.

Continuing to enjoy me some Janna. She's deceptively potent mid lane. You'd think she's all support (and the tips section LIES and says she's at her strongest when buffing an ally) but with just a couple of levels she becomes a ranged killer. At least one level of W for the minor speed boost and "ignores unit collision" and a couple of levels of Q. Add Ignite to the mix and it's FIRST BLOOD all the way.

Went 4/0 against Malzahar mid the other night before hitting lvl 7. Wound up carrying the team through much of the midgame until Irelia finally got up to speed and turned into a monster late-game.

mana pots op

Is that hockey Jax skin new or did I just never notice it before?

mana pots op

Mana pots being 35 still won't help them. Maybe 25 would. I mean, you're going to buy them early game because that's when you have the highest mana problems. Late game, you don't want to fill up an item slot. But, otherwise, if you're using spells often enough to need a mana pot, you're usually low enough health to go back.

[RedKing]

I never buy more than the initial 1-2 pots, because I usually build a Tear or Chalice first thing after boots, if I'm playing a mage. I could possibly see making an exception for a few characters like Ahri, Orianna, LeBlanc, maybe Lulu that can burn through mana like crazy early on, especially if they're actively pushing/harassing.

Other slight difference might be that if you can carry 1-2 more at start than you used to, your staying power early on is greater. If you're going mid, and you have one of the masteries that starts you off with more gold (enough to buy an extra pot or two), and your opponent doesn't then all things equal, they'll have to head back to refill more often, which lets you hang around in lane and get more xp. Being the first to 6 can be a major tipping point in a mid lane phase.

If I recall correctly, that is from the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics thingy. It contained at least these skins:

- Hockey Jax
- Curling Veigar
- Ice Toboggan Corki (Back when Riot considered this Legendary tier...)
- Some crappy reskins for Fiddle, Anivia, Kassadin and Amumu.

EDIT: Oh and Twitch also got a shitty reskin.

[RedKing]

Aha, did not know that. Wonder if they'll do a pack of skins for the upcoming London Olympics.
Javelin Toss Nidalee?
Discus Thrower Sivir?
Fencer Fiora? (actually a classic white fencing outfit could be kinda neat...could work that with Jax too)

Jax? Fencing? Oh, please, Jax would hold the sword from the pointy end and use it as a club. The other 3 ideas are neat though. Maybe a 100 meter dash Singed?
Or, or, how about, a new fucking skin for Soraka and Trundle.
