The thing is he can stay back most of the time and farm, having a poke or two at her when possible, otherwise, if she tries to jump him he can stun her before she silences him most of the time. At level 6 if he has enough mana for his combo or his pokes are left unattended he can pretty much burst her down the moment he lands his E.

Not sure if I want to get Twisted Fate or Mpen runes first. :U

Pick a card.

Nah, TF is pretty fun in my opinion. His ganks are godlike, you just Pick A Card and pick the Yellow card, then hit R twice and teleport to brush near the person you want to gank.

Saddest thing in this game is going Soraka, spending the whole game in OCD healing mom mode and nobody giving any honour for teamwork, repeatedly.  Silly that going mid or tank and just killing heaps is almost guaranteed to get it from someone, but killing absolutely nothing and focusing entirely on keeping everyone else alive wont, which is ironically the more stressful (but rewarding, oh so rewarding) option.

Ragiest thing is again going support Soraka and having a lanemate who constantly gets killed, as trying to hold off 2 people as her is doomed to fail. I only seem to get annoyed at people for sucking when I'm going full support. I think I need to go back to a few games as support Cho'Gath and just unwind eating people.

To my knowledge honor doesn't do anything. It is just there as a sort of wink to players to try to behave well.

If you don't get honor inspite being a gracious player it is because you didn't win the popularity contest.

[DemonOfWrath]

Of course it doesn't, but it's still nice to see someone appreciating silly banter/being glued to the rest of the team. Also, it may mean nothing but I want a ribbon! 

[Sharp]

I find Lux makes the best support because even if your adc is sucking you can still do tons of damage, randomly snipe the mid lane or jungle to get kill steals/easy assists while still being a good support.

[Jopax]

Yeah, it comes down to being a little bitch and asking for it every time, since most of the players that do have some sort of ribbon haven't particularly shown the ribbons behaviour. And I've made it a practice to give it out almost every game (atleast teamwork) to people who weren't dicks or one of the others if I found them particularly endearing/fun to play with. Unless they ask for it, in that case I tell them to fuck off.

Anyways, almost finished the 10 qualification matches, played 8 of them so far, won 5, two of those I was not that useful to the team, the other three I carried hard with Xerath

Not sure where I'll end up but I'm pretty sure it won't be ELO hell

I have a 'honorable opponent' ribbon, but it seems it's more linked with how much of a fight I am and less with how honorable I actually am.

So, hello everyone ! I've been playing for a while (I'm level 20) and it's a lot of fun so far. I mostly play with Poppy, which have almost everything I want. She's fast, she hits hard so she's excellent at hit-and-run games, and she's more resilient than what people expect. She's awful at farming, however, and I've been wanting to try other characters that play similarly (jump in, do a lot of damage, run away), if only to try out more characters. What I've been wanting to ask is, which ones work that way ? There's a lot of them, and I have a hard time seeing how they play by just reading their abilities.

[Sharp]

LeBlanc is the very definition of jumping in, doing damage and jumping out, similar ones are Kassadin, Lee Sin, Akali, Ahri to some extent, Evelynn, Fiora, Fizz, Hecarim, Irelia, Jax, Katarina, Master Yi, Nidalee, Shaco, Talon, Teemo, Wukong. If you can get kills then Katarina, Kha'Zix and Tristana can jump in, get cooldown refresh on kills and jump back out.

For complete hit and run though it's Le Blanc, its crazy hard to stop her hitting and running but she is unlike Poppy at all.

This. Nidalee, Ahri, and Kassadin especially. Evelynn's not so much 'jump in, do damage, jump out' as she is 'come out of stealth in the middle of a teamfight, kill the entire enemy team, and push to victory'. Shaco's cooldowns are too long, IMO.

[Person]

It kinda looks like you want someone with more wave clear ability than poppy though. But yeah, ahri, kassadin, and talon are pretty good at that. The last two are also common counter picks that you should probably get eventually anyway. I can also advocate wukong. He's on free week right now if you want to try him. Derp that was last week I'm silly.

I honor supports if I'm in the lane with them and they do something phenomenal. Typically, this only happens if they do a good job and I'm ADC. I mean, not every support does well, and Soraka is more of a "I expect you to heal" kind of support. Just as I expect a carry to carry. Now, if you make a play, I'll honor you (Perfect ult to save someone's life in a fight when you're not in that lane would be one example.) If you just spam heals and mana restore, I probably won't honor you, because that's just playing Soraka. But, if you manage to save my life three times in a row, then you're going beyond and above the role of support, and I'll make sure everyone honors you.

That's just how I see it. I don't honor unless they do something honor worthy. I don't honor Katarinas that get 30 kills. And I don't honor Eves, period. But, you 1v5 a team, and I'll honor that. You manage to steal a baron, get some honor. What's that? Managed to take down their nexus by yourself in a sneak attack play? Honor's on the house!

Depends on the Eve but she can easily get into fight, nuke down target and then escape super quick.

Yeah Shaco was a bit iffy on that list actually but with his Shac in a box and Hallucinate he can get out of fights pretty quickly as well, and that 11 second cooldown should be longer on his Q for how good it is, 11 seconds should be rank 5.

Poppy isn't really hit and run, it's about destroying everyone while shouting "Diplomatic Immunity!" before your ult target can go "It's just been revoked!"

[Euld]

I was a support Wukong once, with a Caitlyn.  I went tanky, and it worked surprisingly well o_O  Guess my Q upped her damage a lot?
