They should make the game fast-forward to the end of 12 minutes and give everyone lots of gold. Communism and equality for all! :D

Too bad that in DotA, HoN, and LoL, the #1 differentiator of skill is the laning phase :p

First picked Kat in draft and the enemy team were nice enough to pick Malphite, Kennen, and Warwick. Somehow won so I guess everything went better than expected.

So what kind of build is generally good for Trundle? I have played a lot with him (jungle) and I never seem to do good with him (unlike most of my other heros). Yesterday I noticed he was used quite a lot by very high level players so... full tank or what? I like his play style.

People don't remember the hidden cost of complexity. I've been trying a few other "free to play" games and the number of options and tokens is so obnoxious it really saps the fun and atmosphere. I'm trying a facebook game beta, Utopia Kingdoms, a remake of a great old browser game and I can count 7 icons on my screen that I could click on to use/buy $tokens. My point is, keep the store clean and pleasing, no need for tripling its size for rentals or anything.

Would a rental option really add that much complexity and confusion to the store? TF2 has a rental system and it is not intrusive at all. Champions are expensive and rentals would let players know if they like a specific character without waiting for a free week or gambling thousands of IP away.

He's mainly used as an off-tank/fighter on a competitive level. Wriggle's Lantern, Trinity Force, Aegis and Mercury's. I see people build Warmog's on him, but it usually takes too long to farm it up.

Ugh went up against a Mundo+Leblanc in the bottom lane as riven with soraka. I couldn't do shit against them.

Obviously you're the Riven expert and I'm new to Riven, but I still feel like she either needs to be jungle (probably not a good option) or laning with someone who is ranged. I'm not sure how well she can handle a solo lane against two super powerful enemies, or a support + AD lane against ranged tanks/ranged AP/ranged whatever.

If you plan on watching more of the stream today/tomorrow you could always write down what they're building. Had a game yesterday where an Anivia went into the game with smite. Wasn't too sure about a jungling Anivia but after he got the firstblood with a gank we never lost a tower. The other team had given him some flak at the start but they surrendered as soon as we reached their base.

No replays = difficult to proliferate rogue strats :(

I just realized I haven't seen kiunch and mudkira on for the longest time. I know mudkira is busy with University, but how about kiunch? o_O

Kiunch probably had a heart attack after playing Leona and raging too much (even if he won). You have to control the rage!

So who won between Fnatic and Dignitas? I saw the first game but I don't know if there were other games after that.

You need to lane with someone that can be aggressive. Laning solo is usually a recipe for disaster, really matters who you're up against.

Soraka wasn't being aggressive, and the mundo+leblanc combo was pretty damn tough. I couldn't touch leblanc since she was so mobile/ranged, and her damage output early is insane. I roughed up mundo up a lot, but never enough before leblanc would intervene. Then the bastard would just heal up.

I should try solo laning with her just to see how it goes again.

Riven is strong but she is just hard to play during the laning phase.

I've tried jungle riven but i lack either tankiness or damage during mid game. If i lane and do well with my farm then i become unstoppable mid-late game.

too much of a risk to use in my ranked games even though i do well in normal games with her.

Only combo i can see that can work in ranked games for me is that if riven laned with a support GP at bot. GP can harass and buy gold items while riven farms up her items for the first 20minutes

I don't understand how to play Pantheon mid/late game. Every game for me goes the same way with him. I start with a few kills, then once it's time to team fight I can't do anything. And the ult is not working for me. Every time I jump in, I get instantly stunned and die. It's like trying to play a melee caster with no health or escape whatsoever.

The only wins I can get are when I dominate early and the other team surrenders. If the game goes 30 minutes or longer, I just start feeding.

Karthus and Twitch now 3150IP


I've seen a lot more Twitches lately, and he seems fun. Karthus seems boring as hell though.

The last thing the game needs right now is a bunch of Twitches running around with the stealth system still in a state of disrepair. Karthus is awesome though, you don't even know.
