The warwick towerdive wasn't something unusual and after that, if anything, Vi took 1 tower shot more than she could unless it's a replayer bug.

The Syndra flash is great but nothing unseen. Hell, I see this in plenty of the games that have Syndra picked.

Evelynn and Ziggs misplayed and he capitalised.

Rest are just executions in sure death of etiher side situations.

He might be a great player, he probably is, he played everything in the video very well, but this is a terrible highlight reel.
The thing is Jayce plays don't get much more flashier than what he did. He has the mechanics, the game knowledge and the kills are enjoyable to watch, so I'd call it something far from a terrible highlight reel.

That Syndra play was beautiful, so smooth.

Probably because there really isn't that many champions that can make big plays that are actually interesting to watch to begin with. Majority of the champions in this game have generic abilities with boring cookie cutter item builds every game.

Anything that was unique with the original 40 champions pretty much got it nerfed out of their kits because of "Antifun", "Toxic", and "Burden of Knowledge". Better itemization would go a long way in League. This game really needs more active items.

After playing this game going on 5 years now you've pretty much seen everything until a new champion comes out or a huge overhall rework on an older champion (Sion, and Warwick). The new Warwick will be able to make some huge plays if the kit that was leaked a few months ago ever goes live.

This is so true. Look at Braum, the newest release.

Passive - copied from Nautilus but needs 4 attacks and triggered by allies too
Q - generic linear skillshot CC
W - Lee Sin W with armor and MR instead of shield and can't jump to wards
E - movable slightly different version of Yasuo wall
R - Sona + Anivia Ult with knockup instead

With a cookie cutter item build just like Leona too. What's the point of even releasing a hero like this?

The ultimate irony would be to release a champion with a spell steal mechanic.


I wonder if Sion rework would be tied to release of a new champion. His passive, E and R are a pretty solid foundament while shield would be a waste to get rid of as a concept.

I mean he isn't wrong. LOL

No one is complaining about his release.
Kanye West
I'm not complaining about just braum, more like complaining about the way riot designs their heroes and just gave an example of the newest release to show why riot is uncreative and afraid to introduce heroes with more unique and niche skillets into the game.
Sync
I look at the last 20 champions and most of them (barring Quinn) have SOMETHING unique/cool about them. Not sure why you guys are expecting more out of Riot from the champion aspect of the game. They need to create a character with meaningful lore that synergizes with their kit that is also easy to play and understand on sight for millions of people. Creativity is not the problem here

I mean he isn't wrong. LOL

No one is complaining about his release.
plz reread his post then
Vulf
"meaningful lore" =\. Lore is dead and has been for over 3 years now.

You are right creativity isn't the only problem here. Lack of creativity over time creates some pretty heavy powercreep (Mashing elements of previous ones to create another) which is very present in this game right now. Not all of leagues powercreep/balance is a result of this (not saying it is). Lack of creativity is a design flaw and can be very harmful to a game over a long period of time.

^Basic game design knowledge there

I'm not expecting much out of Riot when it comes to straight up creativity. I just want good fun balanced gameplay (doesn't have to be perfect). Hell the new Warwick is pretty damn unique if we are going to start talking about creativity.

Won 12 of my last 13 ranked games and already at Silver 2 promos.
Can't tell if it's because I'm playing better, being carried by my duo partner (whose Silver 1 now) or out of pure luck (good teammates, bad opponents, etc).
...not like I'm complaining.

Was suggested to me to stop playing top since I don't really come out hugely ahead / carry games after laning phase and play more mid and jungle. Shrug.

Is there anybody who uses the Mac-Client except me? Because I never had any problems (besides the usual ones who occur all the time), but since the new patch my ping goes up +500 randomly, but that problem disappeared eventually after a few games played. Now the real issue is that I can't log into the game anymore because when I start my Client a message pops up which says that the launcher needs to be closed and started again and when I do that, it says the same crap over and over again. Well, there are some lucky days where I can open the Client itself and can click on my profile or something but after a few minutes another window pops up which says: "Can't connect to Maestro, the Client will now close and restart again", or something like that. I have tried everything that should help, I searched for forum entries, repaired the game, deleted it and installed it again but nothing seems to help me. Do you guys have any ideas I can try?
BrokenArrow
Maybe a firewall/antivirus issue? I have no idea about Mac or whether you can disable those things or not, but it might help in case you didn't try it yet.

I've been playing LoL occasionally since season 1, maining support. But support becomes boring and the most annoying thing solo queues are that every lane is much worser than you. But playing as support, you can make plays, people don't realize that since support is underrated. Let me give you a example, I was playing thresh and their botlane destroyed us ( it was still meta where jinx and annie was overly strong since the burst damage lvl 6) their jinx was like 16-2 when heading to late-game ( we stayed in game because our caitlyn and mid had farm alot.) And they got baron and they were retreating, then i made a insane flash hook to their jinx and we bursted her down and won the teamfight what resulted from that. DONT UNDERSTIMATE THE POWER OF SUPPORT!
TKiller
Lose elo due to playing like shit/connection issues/way too much people sucking dick in a row -> get to the point you roflstomp with Akali -> repeat.

Maybe one day I will actually try to maintain a high win ratio for ranked games. All's possible. Meanwhile God bless platinum.

Vulf, show me your Warwick runes, please. Been using my Shyvana page but maybe you had better ideas.

Question: How do you know when to make a trade/engage in lane?
Up to this point, I've been kinda guessing and for the most part, lose trades, even if I engage after my lane opponent used up a skill for farming.
I know things like watch the amount of minions, the level of your lane opponent, look at the items between you and your opponent, and obviously don't get ganked into a 1v2. I'm usually in the top lane, if that changes anything.

It's been a large tendency that I'm never ahead by much after laning phase and as such, my avg K:D is always reasonably low (and my avg assists are pretty high).

BrokenArrow
Pretty much what you already said

1. Know the matchup: If your champion has a disadvantage in a specific lane matchup (let's say Akali vs. Pantheon) you most likely don't even wanna try to initiate or go for a trade, just try to stay even in farm and don't die

2. Know their cooldowns: When the enemy uses his skills to clear minions and you know you can outdamage him, go for the trade

3. Know your own/the enemy's strength: Is there an item disparity? Are you running low on health pots while your enemy laner still has plenty? Does he have built-in sustain and you don't?

4. Be sure there is no jungler around: Map awareness ftw

5. During the trade: Avoid minion damage by going into the nearest brush immediately after you got your damage off
5.1 If possible, dodge skillshots (or land them)


Or just randomly engage on them when they least expect it and roll all over their face.
[-Cloud-]
You forgot the most important: Buy wards!
Even in Diamond elo there are a lot of players who start overextending/trading while nothing is warded nor the enemyjungler is located.

If it's one thing I don't suck at, it's warding. I keep top-tri and Baron pit warded for the most part during laning phase.

Each ranked game you win earns you League Points while each lost one decreases your current LP. The exact amount of lost or earned League Points per game depends on your hidden Match Making Rating. If you have higher MMR than a set amount for your division you gain more LP per won game and lose less LP per lost game, if your MMR is lower you gain less and lose more LP per game.

Feral flare has a positive impact on games this I'm sure; leaving the Jungle with 4k Gold because who needs ganks is the best shit ever.
Vulf
You should still gank your lanes because jungle farm is piss poor in terms of gold even with the jungle item passives. Just a good habit to learn.

Also the only way to play Warwick right now is 100% on hit glass cannon because his ulti is bugged (has been for a couple patches). All 5 ticks of ulti damage applies regardless of him being cc'd out of it or even dying in the middle of it. Basically you pop W before a fight starts ulti a squishy one shot them and while their team is wasting their time trying to peel they get rekt by the rest of your team. Still worth it even if you die as long as their carry dies with you.

Implying Renekton's late game is weak to begin with. Transitioning from a bully in lane to something thats almost unkillable late game is not falling off. Same applies to other "Falls off late game" champs like Lee Sin though he just supplies butt loads of utility while being some what tanky instead.
