I just wonder when it's going to get fixed.

Guinsoo said it was fine.

Also, a lot of people actually prefer him this way. Me too. It doesn't make him OP I don't think. It just changes him from trash tier to very nice to play with. It's also not free as it uses more than 50% of your energy just to do it. This means if you did the q dash to enter a teamfight, you won't have enough energy to double tempest. Similarly, if you double tempest in a teamfight, you won't have any energy to do anything else. Thus, it's great for farming (my games with Lee Sin so far have ended with over 200 CS by 30 minutes), but his teamfight damage output is really the same as before.

She sounds like GLaDOS.

Yeah I got her, she really does, the voice even goes high low like it.

Ahh, after a vacation of some sort, I'm back. And oh the Twelfth Bay of the InternetZ, how has I been blinded by Teemo.

EDIT: Me and my friend were speaking, and then we started to discuss about Kassadin's new splash:

See those muscles? We made a theory how he is so fit for a mage:

Normally Kassadin riftwalks in a game many times. Whenever he riftwalks, he kinda crouches, so he gives stress - and workout - for his stomach.

50 riftwalks a game, and if Kassadin is played 100 times in a hour, he does 5000 situps.
Game been out for about 2 years.
Count how many situps he has done. Then wonder how he has so amazing abs.



I bet he cracks diamonds with his stomach. A nutcracker on a whole new level.

Then the question is why Teemo isn't super buff?

[cerapa]

Teemo is a yordle, plus hes totally addicted to shrooms, I assume they make you lose your appetite and puke.

The new TF and Kass art is sexy. And riot's been expanding the 4800 price range latley.

[umiman]

Been having a ton of fun with the buggy Lee Sin when all of a sudden... my biggest weakness!

We were sent to a US server! (We're EU client) Thus I had great ping and couldn't double tempest any more! Damn you Riotttttt!!!!!!!!!!

[debvon]

So how are you guys liking Orianna so far? Personally I think she's a blast to play. But it's kind of difficult to build her the "right" way. If you go for straight out nuking power you're still not doing THAT much damage by late game, and you're extremely vulnerable. So you get focused immediately (especially with stealth champions around). If you build her with a semi-early Rylai's Scepter and/or defensive item, you're barely doing any damage at all and it's still difficult to survive in most situations, like team fights taking place in mid. Maybe I'm just not building the correct items, or maybe I'm confusing her role a bit. She's a great team support champion.

[Pandarsenic]

Kassadin's abs OP.

Nerf now.

Also, for guaranteed double-Tempest, either E+T (with Smartcast E bound to T) or E+Click or smartcastbind+click and there you go.

[umiman]

Ooooh, good to know.

Did I mention how much I love Lee Sin? I don't think I've said it enough yet. The very fact that I can build fully tanky and still output deeps with great CC makes me orgasm with joy. I tried DPS build but... it was very bleh... If I wanted to play a dps-er, I'd be playing Master Yi. I'm also starting to learn how to play him a lot better.

I used to try to enter fights with the hadoken jump kick. Now I know better. What you actually want to do is run in normally (Lee Sin has one of the highest base move speed in the game) and use tempest to cripple. The jump kick is used only for chasing down an enemy while they are slowed. Far more effective, does more damage, easier to hit, uses less energy.

From stocking shelves to winning an international ­video-game competition in Los Angeles, George ­Georgallidis has done more than help a team of strangers increase their reputation among the gamers who play League of Legends.

He's also converted one of his staunchest critics – his mother.

"I was shocked," says Eleni Georgallidis, a Grade 1 teacher at Eagle Heights Public School. "I had no clue … how big this is. I thought he was just playing a few games online."

Those games were sometimes a contentious issue, especially this summer when George, 20, decided to quit his job with the excuse, "it's interfering with my gaming."

"I said, 'no you need a job, you need money,'" Eleni remembers. "It wasn't until he actually showed me he was really good at what he did (when I agreed)."

George has been playing computer games for as long as he can remember. Just under a year ago, he picked up League of Legends – a five-on-five online game pitting two teams in a race to destroy the other's base.

After forming the highest ranked team in the game with four other players – two from Vancouver and two from the U.S. – George began streaming their matches online and thousands of players logged on just to watch them play.

When the team met face-to-face for the first time in California to compete at the World Cyber Games earlier this month, they even had a fan waiting for them at the ­airport to take them to dinner.

Nearly 50,000 spectators watched George's team, ­Counter Logic, and their competition from Europe and Asia play online during the tournament's initial rounds.

And now that he's had success on the WCG stage, George is pursuing some entrepreneurial opportunities that might make up for the lost wages this summer.

"We have sponsors approaching us now and the website is actually ­starting to generate some revenue," he said.

George has also been approached by people looking for lessons on ­getting better at League of Legends (it seems he may have more in common with his mother than both would have thought).

"I've heard about it for poker and games similar to that, but since the community is so large – you have ­doctors playing, dentists playing – there is a broad spectrum of people and they wouldn't mind spending $20 or $30 (per hour) to improve their game," he said.

Eleni is proud of her son.

"I think George is a good example of how we should just encourage kids to really be passionate about things," she says. "Especially when they're having a hard time fitting in to the ­traditional way things are done."

Although George graduated from Saunders secondary school, it took a little help from the administration and a customized timetable, which Eleni said was difficult as a mother grounded in the traditional education system.

But now she says her own teaching style is changing based on George's experience.

"It's changed my life," she says. "It's changed the way I deal with parents who have kids like George. I'm always giving them advice – find the passion.

"Somebody said (George) is an exception. He's not an exception, he really exemplifies a kid who has a ­passion. You just respect that passion and keep pushing it, and when he's having a hard time with other stuff, you get through that.

Lol... if you can't guess who that is, it's HotshotGG.

To be fair, he makes approximately $60,000 a year in ad revenue from his stream alone.

Spoiler: A TF that didn't suck. Instead, a TF that carried us. Big time.

How did it happen? Is this real? Find out, later today at seven PM - On Fox.

no they're terribly ugly like all new art.
absolutely no reason to replace art.

[Bluerobin]

Aww I like the new art. A lot of the original splash art looks like they took the in-game models and added a bit of detail, so they look all angular and weirdly disproportionate.

I really want Orianna... I'm excited she's 4800 instead of 6300, but I still need about 3500 IP to get to 4800. At least I have two sets of runes to show for my lack of IP.

[Astral]

Orianna looks kinda boring, but that's more my playstyle. I'm not a fan of Teemo for the fact that he needs to rely on something other than direct skills to do well. Not a fan of "pet" classes. Maybe fun to mess around with but not as a main character.
