If you do main adc caitlyn is not hard, but if you main something else and you don't know how to make Caitlyn worth (like me) then don't pick her.

I thought that you were suppose to counter-pick all the time (I have friends who watch pros while I do not) but wasn't told until late that matchups matter less at Bronze level. I'll worry about matchups when I start to rank up, but at Bronze, I don't care... yet.psKirika wrote:
This is so true and so wrong at the same time. Picking the right/wrong champions can win/lose the lane straight. I ALWAYS chose an adc by our teamcomp / their bot lane. While others might not and get crushed in lane by first picking and insta-locking Vayne.
Vayne is banned because she's basically the strongest adc duelist late game and can carry hard alone. For example, 1 item Vayne = 2 item Cait etc.Justykanna wrote:

Didn't like Caitlyn's kit at all. Her ultimate's easily blocked by someone else, her Q keeps her in one spot for a short time. I like Sivir because she's mobile and her Q takes zero time to launch and people can't dodge it (which makes it super fun). I loved her before the rework.
Sona... ehhh... I don't feel like she has enough to protect her ADC. Nami has a stun, slow, heal, poke and wide-range, long-range ultimate slow. Then her passive.At least for ADC, I need someone mobile. I considered Lucian but I heard he's underpowered.SoG Tava wrote:

Support, I need someone who can poke and protect the ADC really well and I just find Nami's best for that.tyrael6192 wrote:

I mean, if I see a Pantheon, I'm not gonna pick my main (Gangplank).
That reminds me, why do people hate Gangplank so much? o_O
I've seen a lot of Vayne banning lately. I guess she's popular?

anyway what tyrael says is somewhat true
thing is championselect.net and all these websites only take LANING phase into account
caitlyn vayne's hardest counter? ask them when they both have full items at 40 min mark
a bad vayne can even kill a mediocre caitlyn
Doublelift the name of a player I'm guessing?Kanye West wrote:
Why does every vayne player think they're doublelift lol
I'm actually really excited to see that one. I've never been overly excited for a new champion, but this one sounds cool. =)Otonashi07 wrote:

any thoughts?
I actually didn't see Nasus get any (litterally) banned votes in ranked until two weeks ago, and then EVERY game had a him banned. Anyone know why? =/ I don't get it! lol.Kanye West wrote:
But see, by your logic, Nasus counters every toplaner.
Thank you for clarifying! =)tyrael6192 wrote:
i think the general point i wanna make to justykanna is don't force yourself to play a champion you're not familiar with just to counter someone in a solo lane because the majority of the time you'll contribute more to the game by playing someone you know and understand

How does that explain why he's been getting banned left and right, now?Vulf wrote:
There was a hidden nasus nerf on pbe. Life Steal is now 10% instead of 14% early game. Keep em coming. probably won't be nerfed more until after they make money from his new skin though.
forget the shieldVulf wrote:
Nasus will get nerfed for the same reason Warwick got nerfed (actually gutted) in season 2. He is immovable in lane and that is stupid and not fun to play against. He is a very strong late game champion that has probably the easiest early game to get there and that is a problem. Everything that used to straight up destroy him in lane has been nerfed. Also the new dorans shield made a lot of stuff with built in sustain really strong.
Nerfing his early game sustain is a step in the right direction, but he needs to be nerfed a little more.
Wow actually thats a pretty good idea , i wonder why i never see pro players do that :/maal wrote:

double dorans ring is way stronger on him
9 mana after each kill + 6 mana regen and his q only costs 20 mana
thats a nasus thatll never feel the need to come out of lane
Vulf wrote:
Probably because building mana regen on a champion that doesn't have mana problems is why. You are spending 800 gold on stats you don't need other than the 120 health. Dorans shield gives everything he wants for almost half that price 100 health 13 reduced damage from AA's (if you go defense tree masteries) and health regen that stacks well with his passive. Mana issues are the least of his worries.

Haven't really been playing league much lately because I'm bored with how stagnant season 3 has become. Match History is mostly Dominion, Arams and bot games lol.
Been playing a ton of Smite instead.
Quite funny with a champion that has no skillshots or something that really involves counterplayVulf wrote:
If you don't know how to play the champion that counters something and you pick it expecting to have an auto win in lane you are going to have a bad time. I've picked Warwick into horrible things before and still won my lane because I was simply better than the other person and vice-versa.
He has enough to use his Q 24/7. The main goal is not to use his W/E since it will drain your mana. Indeed he doesn't need additional mana regen and he gets enough initial mana by building the glacial shroud/sheen itemsShimy wrote:
nasus has low mana problems if you play him right =.=
Warwick is the reason I started playing League in the first place. At the time I was looking for a game that had an interesting werewolf character and LoL was my only decent option. To keep it short I really enjoy his theme. Warwick will always be my main.SoG Tava wrote:
also why u decide to main Warwick ? the only other guy i know that does that ore did was Guardsman Bob
