League of Legends (Old)

[Ankamius]

I had a Katarina in one of my ranked solo queue games yesterday who DCed while trying to switch summoners, so she went into the game with Smite/Teleport.

She still managed to win her lane, gank top and kill Nasus with me (as Renekton), and maintain a high CS throughout the game. Even if the ADC wasn't a boosted account in progress, I think we still would've had a great shot of winning because of her.

Not sure if you're confused, that was a full fledged Morde Jungle, Nasus Mid.

[Ankamius]

You're right, I read Frog's post wrong. I thought we were continuing on one of Panzer's points.

Carry on.

[Bub Bidderskins]

This might just be the best thing ever.

[DeathNote]

I am pretty bummed about the leaver ban system. What if you suddenly have to leave in the middle of a game?

I try not to start a game if I know I will be leaving soon but sometimes I can't predict when I have to go.

[Bub Bidderskins]

If you just have to leave a few times, you won't get banned. If you consistently have to leave in the middle of games, then you should probably look for a game with a shorter session length.

then don't play unless you're sure

[Andrius]

I've left 2-3 games and haven't had a problem. Granted they're fairly spread out.
It took me 10+ leaves in a couple weeks to get a warning on my PBE account.

[Papa Zito]

the only person I've ever actually wronged in this thread that dislikes me.

If you needed a ride to the airport, I'd take you there. If you needed a place to crash, I'd let you sleep in my house. If you needed money to cover the bills, I'd give it to you.

I don't dislike you, I just don't want to play video games with you.

[Brandi]

That was eloquently put, Zito! ^^

Them: NO DON'T PICK TEEMO vs SINGED
Me: Who should I pick?
Them: Rumble. He can kite Singed all day.
Me: You do know what Teemo does, right?

They trolled and dodged.

I think I like just about all of the 3.5 balance changes.

I'm especially liking the Morg and Nami buffs, as those two champs seem to have vanished. Also digging the Spirit of Ancient Golem change. Mobi Boots + SotAG on tanky junglers!

[esuriospiritus]

I don't think those morg buffs are gonna make that much of a difference, though. :/

support morg just got a ton more viable

[Ankamius]

Corki buffs are pretty big.

[JDodge]

Corki buffs are pretty big.

for a better way of looking at it, previously it took him 48 seconds to stack a big one; it now takes him 36/30/24.

[Ankamius]

I'm still having a really hard time believing how the fuck I started losing virtually every game after hitting gold.

Same guy that cursed you cursed me, I guess.

Garen is pretty much the penultimate example of a champion that excels in lane and falls off later. It's not surprising that you would have a worse record with him than your KDA might suggest.

[TehBrawlGuy]

The ultimate example being like, LeBlanc?

I wouldn't be surprised at those figures if my assists were lower, but I'm clearly not KSing horribly with ult or doing badly in teamfights.

You've also never seen TBG play him. It's because he chases ADC's that can kite him and will continuously chase them instead of doing something useful while his team gets straight up exploded. I've seen it, he thinks it's a good thing. Yes, getting to the ADC is good, IF you can do it. If you can't, and you're the only one chasing, you need to be doing something else. Does Garen fall off, sure. But not doing the correct thing/playing poorly contributes to a loss far more then which champion you choose.

Hopefully, he takes this as constructive criticism.

[TehBrawlGuy]

If you were right, I would. The thing is, I did that the first few fights. Draven got fed off of them because he was allowed to drop axes forever with zero pressure on him. When the ADC can't orbwalk, I am almost entirely shutting down his DPS, as well as pulling someone else out of the fight to peel me. I will absolutely trade my paltry late-game damage to make the fight a 4v3. (and I did kill him in a few of those fights) If you guys are getting "blown up" 4v3, that's pretty much out of my control.

While we're on constructive criticism, though, if you're getting blown up, you should probably think about ulting pre-fight or building any sort of peel or tankiness. Your build that game was BT, Zephyr, (against almost no CC reduced by tenacity) IE. You have to build to counter teams.

[PJ.]

lol kk clearly you think you lose 66% of your games with your best champ because you're playing him right 100% of the time. Good luck in solo queue.

[TehBrawlGuy]

I don't play him right all the time, but I definitely played him right in that game with you. (it's not like I went 15/2 or anything... oh wait) You had like 8 deaths in that game because you play Miss Fortune so well, right?

That's 66% in the past week. I'm at or above 50% winrate with him overall.

Can I insert here that I'm really happy with the fact that teemos build ap nowadays?
