[Espeonage]

Ok I'll reclarify. What team is going to take me as a sub?

[Espeonage]

Two things.

Eve is shit.

Eve is fun.

[Ranmaru]

She's ugly too. I like that blue chick from Xmen better.

Also... this last game makes me want to do ultimate bravery later today (i'm goin to sleep now)

[Staeg]

Uhh... I don't think you can drain a nexus?

And when I played HoN, I hated the item system. The stash kept trolling you, the items were organized based on the states of Moon and none of the items were remotely similar to the DotA variants. I don't think Dota2 can get any worse than that.

[PJ.]

no, your build is just right on the AP. You should go boots and catalyst then build Rylai's than either a veil or RoA. the FoN and your other tanky items

Don't build RoA after Rylai's.

indeed, that'd just be fucking dumb

RoA needs to be your first big item or you need to not buy it at all tbh, it takes 10 minutes to stack and buying an item that doesn't become very gold-efficient until 10 minutes after you buy it isn't your friend mid/late-game

Dyrus and a couple of other pros disagree with you. Catalyst -> Boots -> Rylai's. Then build RoA or Veil on whether you need the bubble. With singed I can generally get those items and upgrade boots somewhere between 15-25. Full RoA somewhere between 25-35.

[Oman]

That's a long ten minutes to have a mediocre item.


I usually get chalice as a first item on Anivia. I've since been informed this is bad news bears. Suggestions?

[Staeg]

You should probably get a catalyst or somesuch. You also need the second (and every other one thereafter) blue, so ask your jungler.

[PJ.]

So I'm having a pretty serious issue and I'm not sureMy latency is 27, my framerate has been steady but i keep getting froze in place, where I can't move, And got D/C'd 5 times in one game, Any reason this is happening?

[RayFrost]

That happened to me as well in a game. I think it's a riot-side problem, since

everybody

in that game was suffering "lolnomove" problems.

[Staeg]

It's happened a bazillion times before. It's a riot servers es #1 problem.

Tossing this in here since a lot of you asked for updates. Baby girl was born yesterday, 6 lbs 10 ounces

Yaaay! That's so awesome! I'm so excited to visit again now! =D

Catalyst is the way to go with Anivia, as with a lot of AP carries, simply because of the sustainability it gives you. Chalice isn't entirely necessary to have sufficient mana with runes + good mana conservation, not to mention Chalice is really useless late game. Getting a Catalyst lets you build directly into RoA or BV... not to mention getting it early game means basically a free 1.25 health potions and 2 mana potions every time you level (250 HP vs 200 HP from pots; 200 mana vs 100 mana from pots), so it's basically worth an extra 125g every time you level.

Ezreal has Rising Spell Force.

It doesn't help him that much, since he never should be auto attacking in the first place.

I would never want to play with your ezreal

If you're playing Ezreal correctly, you should never be auto attacking more than one at a time, making the attack speed useless.

You're really not playing Ezreal correctly.

I prefer not taking any damage to staying in AA range all the time.

[TheButtonmen]

Derp, people on loading screen complained that our team had too many teleports so we decided the solution was teleport for everyone.

[Amrun]

Is that a new ww skin? Love it.

[Ankamius]

Nah it's been there for a while.

so I'm having some primary issues with Cassie so far:

#1)

smartcasting twin fang requires stationary positioning

which fucks me in the ass more than it actually helps. Even if I do manage to get them low or kill them, I'm usually so low by the end of it that I have to back as well which fucks me up. Since smartcasting twin fang requires me to hover my mouse over the enemy champ, I can't click to move, leaving me open to burst from them (esp if they have a stun or snare like Ryze or Morgana)

#2)

ignite seems to be the only way to kill someone early game

While I can whittle away at their health with my poisons, I cannot for the life of me knock them down to 0hp. I always get them SO FUCKING LOW but I can't get that last little bit. Cassie's range isn't great and usually the enemy figures out OH SHIT I SHOULD B before they rush in at low health, so I can never snag any kills... what do

#3)

positioning for her ult is really really tricky

seriously though, what the fuck? if someone is facing you, you stun them... alright, cool, I can dig it. However, the range on her ult is terrible and its mostly just a wide range not a long range, so when I use it I have to be standing at the front of their ENTIRE enemy team with them facing me...wat

oh and just a general problem... my biggest issue as a player so far is pushing lanes too much, and that usually happens because post-laning phase, I can't really figure out what to do. I only feel like I'm being useful if I'm killing creeps/taking down towers, so if my lane is pushed and we lack map vision, what am I to do? Dragon isn't up, I can't take baron yet, and my jungler needs his jungle creeps

[Espeonage]

It is his best skin. The only one that comes close is the dugong skin.

In spite of my brain going "Nope, you don't get to remember your Shyvana builds today", I managed to go 0/7/14 this game. Map presence OP.

Alot of AP mids do take ignite to add that extra bit of damage to secure the kill. Remember though, you don't have to kill something to have the edge in lane. Forcing them back denies them gold and xp, and if they're staying in on lowish health they have to be extra wary, probably denying themselves farm they might have otherwise gone for, and being less of a threat to you.

I'm not a Cass player, but if your lane opponent is hanging back or being forced to go back to heal, you should push your lane and look for gank opportunies in the side lanes. That isn't just a Cass thing, alot of AP carries are excellent gankers. AP carries are at their strongest early to mid, and you have a level advantage over jungle and bot lane, so don't be afraid to go for it.

[xRECKONERx]

Yeah, but my main issue is that in order to get them low, I usually have to get myself low too which just makes it a useless trade

[Patrick]

I'll defer to JDodge
