She has an ult similar to Akali and I guess her skills' flavors are similar (one that's ranged damage, one that's survivability-based, and one that's self-centered AoE, but I feel like there are a lot of champs with those flavors), but... her ranged attack is very different, her survivability is completely different, and her self-targeted AoE is meant to be used for control, not damage (although I imagine it probably does decent damage). I keep seeing the comparisons, but beyond the ult (and I guess the general assassin flavor?) there are a lot of differences.

The moment the lever was pulled, somebody's pet kitten stepped onto the bridge. I read somewhere that if a cat falls more than 11 stories, it instinctively flares its legs out to increase air resistance. This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.

All of the various League of Legends musics things are going up on soundcloud. Might want to add this to the OP.

She looks like Akali, but she doesn't feel like Akali when you play her. That's the best I can describe it.

So the highest ranked player on US, at least for right now, is a support - and he's answering questions on reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/xtewc/hello_im_orb_lemonnation_i_play_only_support_and/

So another champ has caught my eye, Viktor. When he came out I didn't think much of him really, didn't seem interesting.

But I've played a few games with him, and I have to say, he's won me over simply with that E. That damn thing is so much fun to spam and poke and harrass and completely zone whoever you get matched against it's not even funny. By level 5-6 it's doing a very nice 300-ish damage if I've got some AP, which is pretty awesome since it allows me to pick up a kill the moment I hit 6.

His other skills are kinda off I feel, but I haven't been really using those much, the Q is merely an afterhought and the W while very nice is somewhat hard to place properly.

Still, if Zyra turns out as interesting and fun as this I'm going to have a hard time deciding on my new AP champ.

Viktor does stupid amounts of damage.

Also I'm finally getting Diana in a game. This is harder than it should be.

Viktor does TONS OF DAMAGE, and he's not really as bad as he's thought to be. He's just very under the radar, and those e bugs are killer.

Yeah, that E does disappear quite often, but I find it still does damage if it was supposed to hit. So no biggie.

What I like is how much AP he gains without any items, that combined with my almost full AP/lvl runepage is quite a dangerous combo.

Also never have I finished his build, closest I came was five items, had 700-ish AP when the match ended ^^

Diana is a fun and strong combo assassin. My only criticism is that she doesn't feel like that deep of a champion, but that might just be because Zyra and Jayce just came out. Also she's Lady Gaga.

And then I played Teemo for a game and rocked as him. He's seriously like the best solo top champion as long as you're not facing Wukong.

She looks like Akali with a bit of Leona added in for tankiness, and rather than benefiting others with her skills she benefits only herself.

Scratch that, Akali plus Blitzcrank. A terrifying combo, since she can pull you in as well as launch herself at you, all whilst being tanky and bursty. She looks a bit scary, even thinking about item builds such as RoA for added tank, Rylais and Gunblade for the slow and lots of AP, Deathcap for the rape, and maybe a Zonyas or Abyssal depending on what you need as far as armor or MR.

That looks pretty cool.

They're really liking the item-as-a-passive champions this year. I thought Viktor would be the only one we got for a long ass time.

I don't think we can make generalizations based on two champions xD

There's a second one? (excluding this new one)

So I just played a game as 4/3/10 sona where our Diana went 24/2. She's pretty ridiculous.
