Tell that to niggertrox. THAT guy is by far the worst, lol.
Rumours that the biggest carry player in INTZ (Revolta, jungler) is leaving for another team. For anyone who saw the IWCI, it was noticeable the team was basically made after his decisions.
Kinda sad to see how the brazilian scene doesn't seem to grow up because we just keep on changing players between teams. The same happened to KabuM after they came back from worlds and they almost got relegated to challenger series last split.
btw, pretty sure vel'koz is in a much worse situation than akali (maybe not aatrox). While akali was basically an hypercarry who got downgraded to just being a common champ, Vel and Aatrox have never been in the spotlight, not in competitive scene, nor soloQ (at least high elo). Even champs like Anivia and Singed have appeared more..

Aatrox has seen a decent amount of play in Season 3 in the jungle/top in EU LCS.Blue Dragon wrote:

I'm pretty sure Vel was picked up once in EU LCS. I think it was nRated.
My statement still stands; Akali is the worst champ in the game right now.

Thing with Aatrox is that the guy basically leaps in, and if he can't outright kill his opponent, he is as dead as a roadkill.
Akali, despite all the nerfs, is still at least somewhat viable through the midgame, but Aatrox? He's horrible early game, he's horrible mid game and late game, when he should shine and his kit should somehow contribute - he fails utterly.
Unless he gets fed like fuck (and let's be honest, every champ is competitive when hyperfed), or his enemies ignore his existence entirely, he won't be able to do shit.

That nerf is actually just a revision to a change they made a long time ago. About 2 years ago, they buffed her making it so the e would proc her q. She wasn't originally like that and she was op before that change. I think it's mainly due to her other changes along with item changes and new champions that has made her obsolete.EneT wrote:

It kinda feels sad, as a main support, when I see my match history and the "wards put in the map" number being so low. I spend as much as possible time roaming the jungle and getting vision, yet even the enemy jungler had more wards than me. what am I doing wrong ;_;

Nah but seriously, the way a lot of junglers build nowadays is they get sightstone so it's no surprise if they ward more than you.
Also, you're probably not buying enough pinks; always leave 1 inventory slot dedicated for a pink ward and always have one in your inventory even if you already have one down. They are so helpful and can make or break a game, you'll see.

I'm starting to believe bard ult is best used as an initiation tool (just pop it behind them while you rush at them with shurelia/righteous glory/whatever) . Trying to save it for clutch moments is utterly pointless most of the time. Unless there is a Zed. Then sure, it's easy as fuck to use it against Zed. Against anything else I really don't see the point of bothering to try.

I've always felt like Bard was a mediocre champ when used in yoloq without any comm at all. In organized comps he works well though.
On a side note, Cass top completely shits over a good chunk of the tank top picks... It's so fun mowing down a Nasus's life bar when he goes in to last hit.

How can you run oom as Cass ? Her kit gives her both life and mana sustain through her E o.O
And RoA/Tear are mandatory anyway.
The goal is to deny the opponent top as much farm as possible early on and punish them if they try to last hit. Of course you aren't going to deal much when they start buying tank items (early sorcs shoes help a lot here), but until then you should be ahead anyway.
The most potent counters to Cass top are high mobility champs who usually sports high damage as well (so basically Riven, and most assassins), as well as long range champs (Jayce comes to mind, and a lot of mages but there aren't many top so yeah).

I still remember the days when things like Nami top weren't competitive and were considered trolling or fun. Nowadays, it's standard... it doesn't feel fun picking unconventional champs anymore, as it's expected of you.
I used to main Ali mid, haven't lost a single game with him there, out of a bit over hundred. I loved how people back then thought I was trolling, but I ended up carrying the match, and found some seriously good friends from exactly those "troll picks".
Nowadays, shit like Blitz mid or Annie support are as frequent as other picks, which pretty much ruined it for me.
I guess that's just the natural progress of every game.

Nami top and Blitz mid are common ? o.O
If what you say is true you might just say that more people learnt to troll and among those picks some were actually viable.

Yup, it's definitely common, and we have the professional players to thank. People love to copy from streams and tournaments.
I still remember my first Blitz and Mao mid games... fun times.
Thing with those two was that even if you somehow lost mid, you still had tonnes of utility for your team, so you were always useful. Oh, and DFG Mao was insanely OP..... the original DFG, not the nerfed shit. :p

I meant when I all in. I don't really play Cass top though so normally I wouldn't build that much mana. I don't usually go RoA if I go tear and instead because of having no burst (having 8000 mana is nice though) and I get blue sometimes tooPyaKura wrote:

I usually only play ARAM nowadays, exactly because of that reason. When I was still on EUNE, my friends list was chock full (literally) and I have no idea why I moved onto EUW, but with 20 friends in total, I'm not going to play anything 'cept ARAM, so yes, I know how you feel all too well.Conor wrote:
Not at all. I want some active people on my friends list that I can play with so I'm not queuing up by myself all the time. We're all too familiar with how that experience goes down on EUW, of all places.
I did try playing team builder last night though, and it was fun utterly raping their team with Annie, after over a year of not playing on the Rift. I love her kit - abuses people so hard. :p
ARAM? That game mode steadily makes you worse at the game.
Unlike 95% of the LoL players, I don't aim to be Challenger by the end of the season, and I gave up on trying to be "good" long ago. I'm playing to have fun, and I cannot, for the life of me, understand people who actually get annoyed over the game.
The last match I played yesterday, I was top as Vlad against Cho, raped him to 3-0, had over a 100 more farm than him, roamed to bot (tp) and helped them out a few times, and what does our mid do in the meantime? He feeds their jungler, Rengar, 18 kills. The guy had bloody 407 AD before the 25 minute mark. I absolutely ate the top lane, supported bot as much as I could, but not even the gods could win that game. It was simply lost, as it took 3 of my teammates to kill him, let alone win a 5v5. I ended up with the most damage done and the most farm in the match, but who cares, I had fun.

Just like I had a game where Annie was mid against our Katarina and she had 29 kills by the end (I was like, apart from Warwick with his ultimate, the only one who could do anything 'cause I was playing as Sion and she had hella burst 'cause she was fed), and Kha'zix had 20 kills, and what did our Ashe get? 7/21/8. And she flamed me and Warwick constantly, even going as far as to say she knew everything about the game, from start to finish. EUNE has the best community. /s

Oh right, that's why I transferred to EUW. Back in s2, people claimed EUW was much, much better community-wise than EUNE, so I gave it a shot.
Turns out both are cancerous as fuck, but at least EUNE had friendlier and less cocky people. I miss the people I've left behind there. =(

Toxic people exist in all parts of the globe. Just get friends to play with and the toxicity you experience will be so much less.
Even then, when you're under stress, some people will end up tryharding to the extreme (like me), League changes people regardless of whether they're buddies or not 
Stop tryharding, I never tryhard; tryharding just slows you down when it comes to climbing the ranks. Just play chill; that's how you get to Diamond/Challenger.
Considering I've played for 5 seasons now, excluding a rather long break, I think I have the "toxicity problem" under control even without any friends. Yes, playing with friends is going to yield a much better result and a greatly increased factor of enjoyment, but you can deal with a toxic community even without them - granted, you need nerves of steel for the utter stupidity of most people you encounter.EneT wrote:

Also, you've stated that ARAM gradually destroys your skills. I beg to differ - it doesn't completely erase them, it just makes it awkward for you to start at level 1, instead of level 3, and skews your perception of when you should go all-in and when not. Apart from that, it teaches you to pay attention to what your team does at EVERY given moment, how to sustain yourself better (as you don't get to recall in ARAM), and most importantly, it teaches you to not take the game too seriously.
The last one is the reason I play it instead of normals nowadays. I have unimaginably good nerves and I'm a couple of thousand leagues away in terms of optimism than most people, but even that is not enough, as people who take the game like they're going to Auschwitz after each death gradually chop down even the largest oak of optimism and mellowness.

Was it a normal game? Some people have high elo in normal mode; I have a silver smurf with plat/diamond elo in normal.
It was a normal game, yeah. However, it was a premade of 5, so I would've assumed that the enemy would be like, low Plat at the very least, not mid-Gold, certainly not Silver
Ranked Elo is independant from Normal Elo. You'd be surprised; there a lot of Gold and silver players that are deserving of Diamond and Plat but they just don't play ranked at all, some of my friends are a good example. A friend of mine is Diamond and the other is Silver but I can safely say that my Silver friend is better than my Diamond friend. It just shows that rank in league isn't an accurate portrayal of how good you are; it just shows how much you play the game (ranked). Master and Challenger however, are a different story but even then, the people who rise to the top of the ladders are those who just play the most.
why katarina is op?
^ This. Although The thing about Katarina is, she's one of those champions that stomps on low elo players. You don't have to win lane and it doesn't matter how much CC the enemy has; her clean-up is so good she just has to be in the right place at the right time and BAM she's suddenly fed.
Well, if you have some very hard cc and you support a katarina with a planned gank, you could possibly get her a free triple even if she's something like 2/5/1, which is insane. I've done it before, it's possible if you can execute the cc properly.
Slightly off-topic but relevant, Nidalee seems to be one of those champs who stomps on low Elo players like me; although that's probably 'cause I'm bad
Seriously, her spear does like ridiculous amounts of damage from what I see; since I normally play squishy champs as soon as I'm hit with that spear at ANY POINT in the game, it's normally near full range so I lose 20-40% HP.

That is probably due to poor positioning and warding; I used to main Nidalee before her rework and it was so easy to take advantage of people due to this. The thing is, in order for a nidalee to take advantage of this she has to put herself in a poor position so as long as warding is done right you can shut her down pretty easily.Dainesl wrote:

Yeah, that sounds about right, thing is though people can't ward or position as well as those in higher levels so she can be extremely annoying if you're unable to shut her down
which is also why akali is an easy pubstomper in low elo. People never think to get a pink.Dainesl wrote:

I don't get that many pinks throughout the game despite maining support. Only like, 2 or 3 most of the time, and nobody else thinks to upgrade their trinket/buy pinks, which, of course, leads to poor vision control and thus lots of deaths that could've been prevented
Always have a pink in your inventory even if you already have one placed down; also leave one inventory space dedicated for pinks. Don't be afraid to place your pink down wherever. It's a small difference but it's the small differences that make you win the game e.g. Pushing botlane lvl 1 for an earlier lvl 2 can win you the lane is another good example.
I've noticed that playing defensively is generally the best way to assassinate people. As Rengar I played a game where I focused exclusively on counterganks and overextended enemies instead of trying to make #bigplays and it got my fed really easily.
ugh, this patch is doing that thing again where the login screen crashes each time you log in.
