The trick with the doom bots is split pushing. They're flat-out superior in pure team-fighting against all but the most robust comps, but they have mediocre map awareness at best. Bring a Yi or a Jax or something and kill their turrets and inhibs while they wreck your face.

New Doom Bots don't have pushing. Just defending.

Ah, that is quite a bit trickier. Clearly the solution is Veigar.

Currently 100 difficulty on the gauntlet is "Do the bots have Lux?" She's the most cancerous bot not only because lol lasers hurt, it's the constant high damage snares.

Second semi-final: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpGDef9WfIA
Interesting pick from yesterday's games:

support miss fortune/ashe adc as a counter to zyra support - it worked, forcing SKT to ban it out

...and there it is.

The final: https://gaming.youtube.com/watch?v=aCuYD7YRNoI&

An all Korean affair, SK Telecom versus Samsung Galaxy. The latter haven't contested so much as a Korean championship final before, so SKT are heavy favourites.

 This is pretty sweet (spoiler for first semi-final): https://clips.twitch.tv/riotgames/ColorfulFinchDuDudu

First game was pretty amazing. I was worried about a stomp since the matches up to this point have been leaning that way, but so far so good.

 Blue build ezrael just hit his items.

Can't believe I'm actually watching Game 5, but kinda glad I am....hell of a close match so far. And eye-opening to the importance of vision and map awareness.

EDIT: Or at least it was, until SKT got the advantage and then just methodically gutted SSG like a fish.

 Today may be the last chance to play doom bots, here's a guide if you want to try the level 100 gauntlet: https://www.reddit.com/r/summonerschool/comments/58seff/doom_bots_the_gauntlet_lvl_100_guide_tier_list/
 I think he's wrong about vel'koz, seems pretty decent for safe waveclear and not hard to land enough abilities for a true damage ult.

I surprised by how few people use veigar in that mode. I kinda lost count of how many times I got multiple kills with a single well placed W due to the fact bots don't actualy try to dodge it, and he stacks ap pretty damn fast with all the kills he gets. You can also get gunblade and essentialy never run out of health, meaning you'll only ever get killed if you get bursted down from full to 0. Also stacking mejais is really easy.

Preseason has started, ranked flex queue is up, assassins have been reworked and there are some mysterious plants spawning in the jungle:

Rest in peace jungle buffs.
I'll miss ya chickenbuff, wolfbuff, and grompbuff ;-;

[BlackHeartKabal]

The Black Rose shall bloom once more!

[frostshotgg]

Flex Queue will be turned on right as preseason starts (coming with patch 6.22), with Solo/Duo Queue coming under a week later.

God fucking dammit riot. Don't do this bullshit again. Where have we heard this all before?

[Cthulhu]

Bunp.  I'm back baby. Started playing again, now as boogie knights, now almost exclusively with frens.  I'm still very rusty and playing with a guy who was gold last season means I'm having some rough time getting back into things, bit I figure I'll get the hang of it sooner than smurfing. 

Anybody else still playing leg?

[Kot]

I just started.
This is horrible but also addictive. I keep saying "For the Omnissiah" every time I kill someone as Jayce. I say it a lot.

[itisnotlogical]

I decided to start playing again for want of something to share with my irl friends.

I got shown how to create a bots-only game for practice before I start playing for real (probably unnecessary since I'm only level 12). I also discovered that the beta client can't add bots to custom games.

Of all the things to not work, why that...?
