I just ragequit ranked.

Support Ezreal, solo top Soraka.

Feels good man.

I'm having good time playing jungle Twitch, wins after wins, first bloods after first bloods. The bad thing however, is that I keep ruining the enemy mid mages' games.


Also our AP Tristana (who in champ select said we gonna lose, since our team had a Twitch) boasted when the enemies surrendered. Kinda funny, he only managed to get 1/1/0, and had RoA, lvl 1 boots + ring.


EDIT: And for the last 6 games as Trynd I've forgot to equip my Highlander skin. GOnna remember to do it now.

I only use movespeed quints on Cho'gath and olaf. Cause y'know... I wanna get up close and personal.

Just played with Axil, who's from here but never says anything!

We had a full 5 man premade and somehow went full tank team. So it was Udyr top, Galio mid, Jarman + Taric undefeated bot, Volibear jungle.

Let's just say we would leave teamfights with more hp than when we went in.

Sirian: Soraka and Sona's harass are the same. Super effective for like... the first 4 levels... then falls off really hard. Compare this with Zilean whose double bombs can take off half of someone's hp at level 4. It's a completely different level of harass I think. Though I'm sure if Sona or Soraka wanted to, they could scale Q first and probably do the same.

Levelling Q on Sona is what I usually do when I play her. I feel the harass Q provides is more effective than the sustain of W, especially considering the increased mana cost as W gets levelled.

Add me to the players list for NA.

Oooh, look, it's Viktor, the Russian Cyborg.

Let's look at his stats.

Passive: Hex Core: +3 ability power per level AND...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

(Passive): +3 ability power per level, +220 health and +6 health regen per 5 seconds. Power Transfer increases Viktor's movement speed by 30% for 3 seconds. OR

(Passive): +3 ability power per level, +200 mana, +10% cooldown reduction, +5 mana regen per 5 seconds. Gravity Field has an additional 30% cast range. OR

(Passive): +3 ability power per level, +45 ability power. Death Ray sets fire to enemies, dealing 30% additional magic damage over 4 seconds.

That's what? 54 AP passive? That's pretty good actually. But then again, it does take up one of his item slots... Oh well, very few games actually fully complete all item slots anyway. I'm guessing each passive doesn't actually make it +6 AP per level or that'd be pretty freaking broken.

The first one seems pretty nice if you're going tanky build. The stats are honestly kinda meh and if it were an item, I'd say it'd only be useful in the early game. The movespeed is nice though and I know his Q is really spammable... so it's essentially a permanent movespeed boost.

Second passive seems really shitty honestly. Maybe if he was support? But even then... I dunno... I don't actually know the cast range of his W, so maybe it's essential.

The last one seems the best by far. That essentially gives him an item with 99 AP. I much prefer that to extra mana (though the HP one is good too). Boosts his nuke quite a bit too.

Q: Power Transfer

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

(Active): Viktor blasts an enemy unit for magic damage, returning 40% of the damage dealt as a shield.

    Range: 600

Cost: 45 / 50 / 55 / 60 / 65 Mana

Cooldown: 9 / 8 / 7 / 6 / 5 seconds

Magic Damage: 80 / 125 / 170 / 215 / 260 (+0.65 per ability power)

So, this is like... mrm... 290 damage or so nuke on 5 second cooldown? Also a 100 damage shield. Seems pretty standard. Also, the shield is based on damage done... so if he uses it on a tank, he basically gets no shield. Really cheap manawise though. Could probably spam the living hell out of it on the enemy. The shield + nuke seems pretty strong early on though, especially when dueling in mid.

W: Gravity Field

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

(Active): Viktor conjures a gravitational imprisonment device, slowing all enemies and stacks every 0.5 seconds. At 3 stacks the target will be stunned for 1.5 seconds.

    Cost: 65 mana
    Range: 625

Cooldown: 17 / 16 / 15 / 14 / 13 seconds

Slow: 28 / 32 / 36 / 40 / 44 %

13 second cooldown Morgana ultimate whaddup. Seems broken. No damage though, but big AOE non-ultimate slow + stun... Also, it barely costs any mana wtf. Hell, Karma's shield costs more mana than this.

E: Death Ray

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

(Active): Viktor uses his robotic arm to fire a chaos beam that sweeps across the field in a chosen path, dealing magic damage to every enemy in its path.

    Range: 700

Cost: 70 / 80 / 90 / 100 / 110 Mana

Cooldown: 13 / 12 / 11 / 10 / 9 seconds

Magic Damage: 70 / 115 / 160 / 205 / 250 (+0.7 per ability power)

Oh look, a skill with an actual mana cost. I know you can cast this skill while moving, which makes it incredible by default (I think only Sona and Karma can do this right now). Damage is pretty standard. With the passive upgrade, we're looking at about 300+ base damage or so. Quite typical. Cooldown is the same as Lux's E, which is pretty decent.

This thing also works the same way as Rumble's ult, so you can basically shoot anything you want up to a huge distance away.

R: Chaos Storm

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

(Active): Viktor conjures a singularity at the target location, dealing magic damage and silencing enemies in the area for 0.5 seconds. As it churns, it deals magic damage every second to nearby enemies for 7 seconds. The storm moves faster the closer it is to Viktor.

Activating this ability again while the singularity is active will redirect it.

    Range: 700

Cost: 125 / 175 / 225 Mana

Cooldown: 120 seconds

Initial Magic Damage: 150 / 250 / 350 (+0.55 per ability power)

Continuous Magic Damage: 40 / 60 / 80 (+0.2 per ability power)

Three things to note here:
1) Cooldown is incredibly long
2) Damage has the potential to obliterate entire teams by itself
3) Can be moved around

Course, it's also a pretty tiny AOE and a lot of it is sustained, so all you have to do is blink away or something. It's like... Rumble's ultimate... except not that good kinda. Will silence people though haha. Poor Katarina.

Impressions:
I think he'll be horrific to fight against in lane. Considering, for all intents and purposes, this bastard has no mana costs. Not to mention all his skills apparently can bypass the minion line. His damage is really standard, so he can probably output the same amount of damage as Rumble or Kennen.

I think the big problem is his W. It's an AOE stun as a normal skill. =| No one has that shit for a reason. He'll also be using it up to twice a fight. I know for a fact it's not a small AOE. It's the same size as Jarvan's ult. You might think the delay is actually a bad thing, but I don't think so. There's a reason why Morgana's ult is horrific. Think about it... when you see those purple lines. Do you:
a) run away like a little bitch OR
b) stand and fight

So what we're essentially looking at here is a 1.5 second slow + fear + 1.5 second stun. All this guy has to do is throw this down in the middle of a teamfight and I promise you that for at least 3 seconds (I dunno how long the actual skill lasts), Galio... Katarina... Warwick... Malzahar... Nunu and all these other guys will be useless. This is even worse than if they were up against Morgana, as in that situation, they only have to wait for her to blow her ult since it doesn't apply on people who enter late. What are they going to do against this one? Walk into the bubble to be skill cancelled? Don't forget this guy's ult also silences.

Let's summarize... this guy has a shield, slow, stun, silence, and a choice of speedup or DoT. And a funny Russian accent.

On the downside, this guy's item passive really sucks... for an item. So he's probably screwed in the very late game.

[Yodamaster]

He'll be tweaked, obviously. They're not going to just leave him alone for 2 weeks now, now is when they'll have the MOST people testing him and the MOST changes happening.

[Nilocy]

He looks quite fun to play actually, rather unique. Coming from Dota me thinking the AoE stun was perfectly fine... Then i realised only one other character in LoL has it aswell.

Nerfs ahoy.

[umiman]

Hrm, I think it's quite likely that the different passives could each cost different prices. So W could be really cheap whereas E would be really expensive. Then you could easily justify buying one over the other.

And if that were the case, then it's also quite possible that each upgrade doubles the +3AP per level, since then you could price them at like 2.7k gold.

How is a 9sec cooldown continuous damage?

My bet is that graviton field compensates for having alot of trouble killing people.

He makes them stand still and take it like a man.

[umiman]

How is a 9sec cooldown continuous damage?

What are you talking about?

[eerr]

How is a 9sec cooldown continuous damage?

What are you talking about?

Viktor was said to be a continuous damage champ.

I only see that on his ult.

His cooldowns are like lux, unless he maxes power transfer.

Now say, drain, that is continuous damage.

[umiman]

Remember that Riot likes to talk out of their ass. Though in this case, I think it was IGN talking out of their ass. They called his Q "his base magic missile".

Anyway, I got my dodge rune refund... 13000ip. Hurm... don't really have anything to use this on. And apparently any RP purchase made now gets an extra 300rp.

Also, Victor's now in the champion pages. Still can't buy him though.
