For nemesis draft you could go for all the junglers that aren't normally seen in lane like eve, shaco, nocturne, elise, zac, and watch them fight over who is the actual jungler. But yeah urgot is probably going to be 100% pick/ban rate.

Eve mid/top
Shaco Mid/Support
Nocturne Mid/Top
Elise Mid/Support/Adc
Zac Support/Top

A lot of junglers can go elsewhere.

And yes these are all ones i have seen (except Zac support.)

about urgot

don't build tear.

don't build out your brutalizer

level the nade last.

Ult aggressively, 1v1 squishies. Don't think he's actively bad if the opposing team isn't a sensible comp and you don't try to make him into an adc. He isn't.
Surrender, imagine and of course wear something nice.

Jax isn't why you lost.

Edit: not sure why someone called the afk jax panzerjager, but that's rude. Unless it was Zito, than it's not rude.

Jax would probably have been sufficient, though. He afk'd pretty quickly.

mmm, it was out of hand far far before Jax afk'd. I'd rather leave it at that.

I would of been comfortable betting a very large sum of money that cabd lose when Jax was only 0/1, far before the afk.

Oh, I don't disagree.

But if other stuff had gone fine and Jax had been the same, they still would have lost.

Giants belt change (building out of ruby crystal) is a REALLY nice change for rylais karthus!

Also liking my top vlad which starts with 7% spell vamp, though i really need to get my mechanics to the point where i can do things in the right order under pressure (earlier i panicked and used my Zhonya's before my pool and with no spells before it so it was a complete waste.)
Consider running scaling cdr on Vlad. If you get 5 out of masteries, 15 out of runes, then get SV and WotA, you'll have a full CDR Vlad at lvl 18.

TBH the best part about the change is that you're not forced into the MR/AP path if you do buy a ruby crystal early. Buying that quick health boost, then building it into Sunfire Cape is just amazing. Having the flexibility to build it into liandry's, RoA, or Spectral cowl makes it an amazing item that will probably be my first purchase on first back for nearly every top laner.

What a troll. Report

Meanwhile, I tend to buy more and more sightstone on any jungler. Works really well in case or lackluster support warding

I rarely jungle, but when I support I've been buying ss later and later.

Bascially, I'm high-bronze low-silver, to give you perspective. I find a pink and my totem and MAYBE one more ward is plenty to keep me and the lane partner safe in lane. Then I pour that 800-odd gold into more combat stats and prove that I own this lane. Note that I usually play Leona or Blitz and like to fight often in lane, so it's probably a product of how I play.

I have been finding the "rush gold item level 2, rush sightstone, then gold item level 3" to be REALLY lackluster as a support. It basically trades out all combat effectiveness for the first 15 minutes or so. I dunno, could be wrong, certainly don't main support, certainly not a good player overall.

not getting sightstone first back is fine, but surely you want the sightstone eventually? Even if it's staying mostly in lane, in bot lane you want to start to establish control of the river for dragon, and obviously later game you want to keep 3 wards down as much as possible (plus a pink).

I actually think Leona and Blitz are two that can go sightstone particularly early. Both want to tank a bit, and the extra health is helpful. Vs. a ranged caster like Sona where the health is nice, sure, but your poke is from distance and extra damage/healing can be helpful. Both Blitz and Leona are about setting up plays. Damage is helpful, but isn't really the "point."

I hate that LoL makes you agree to new terms every patch. It's one thing to expect people to read over terms the first time (yeah, right...) but another to expect them to do so every few weeks. At some point they're going to slip in something about your first born.
