Most of those are no brainers...

Vayne alistar is good? NO WAI

But he doesnt have knowledge of the intricacies he has no clue waht hes talking about.

I've crushed with Ez Sona, you can 100-0 someone out of position for less than a second.

Ez Soraka rapes too. Endless Mana lets Ez do the poke and harass all by himself that he needs forever. Man have I pulled off some sexy kills with Ez soraka

anyway

yeah its not perfect, he doesn't even have all of the supports listed T_T

I find it funny that Graves/MF are listed to have synergy with all of them though.

Theyre both very bursty and lane strongly and usually can come out and shine in midgame. They can both be aggressive or play passive-aggressively. That's why. I'm entertaining ideas about Ezreal/Nunu but it's not a common lane so that's probably why he has it gray.

Taric is a mana hungry champion that doesn't have the greatest sustain in the world.
His aggressive play. . .


No Urgot?

while every green square has strong followup punish damage whenever Leona pulls off a combo in lane.


Sivir and Ezreal both apparantly don't have strong followup punish damage, despite both having basically the best burst damage at level 5

Corki's only non-synergy is Taric? Really?

I remember when we played like exclusively ez sona bot lane. THere was that one game with the urgot... huehuehue.

Ez sona combines strong poke damage with a big burst 6 combo, which is really frightening. Tristana sona may have the bigger level 6 burst, but tristana has really mediocre/weak poke. If you can poke the enemy down a little before initiating it makes the burst more likely to get a kill (duh). Some of the green lanes I question a bit too - I dont think graves soraka is a particularly good lane, for example.

Sorry, but I have to disagree. The small heal in laning phase is usually more beneficial when grabbed at 2 instead of 4. By the time you hit 4 (and thus have leveled EQWQ), it heals for about 150, which is a nice little chunk. The heal is less useful outside of the laning phase; in your skillorder, you heal for 150 at level 8 as opposed to doing this at 2. I find +50 health on the heal better than 5 armor and 40 damage/5 shred, which isn't as useful until later anyway.

the only reason i don't mind taric is to get a billion free armor at lvl 9.

But you get a billion armor at lvl 9 in both scenarios.

That extra 5 armor mitigates more damage in the long run and also doesn't have a mana cost attached to it. The early levels seem to involve more poking and less suddenly bursted down for the most part. Excluding kill lanes obviously.

I'd rather have my AD get lifesteal than rely solely on me to heal him back. =/

you're wrong

lane safety is important, that 5 armor does nothing for lane safety whereas that extra on your heal does

the only reason for leveling shatter over heal first is because more levels in heal beyond the second become ridiculously mana-inefficient

ELO hell doesn't exist, I went 6-0 as Singed from 800 -> 1100ish ELO and 7-1 as Udyr from 1100ish -> 1300 ELO.

Sadly the rollback ate my post about my climb from 800 elo to 1300 elo I

am rewriting it.
