OMG BUSH FTW
5v1 gank on Jax from the for the game. Gafers gafing.
I wonder what bonus Shivana's shield will give, are they tired of shield + movement speed? Maybe true damage and infinite sustain if she's designed by Ezreal.
Or maybe Riot designer's wet dream, a gap closing shield that gives lifesteal and deals burst damage! So she'll be able to tanky sustain assassin burst with a single skill.
Unless they make her a shieldless tanky dps, which will be somewhat surprising.

new champ sounds like she might actually be able to use a tiamat... Most useless item in the game so far. (other then troll builds)
I get that, but Manamune is fairly cheap. Rushing Trinity after that without going tanky is just bad.Kod1ak said:
And mana shield isn't reliable consider it's current mana. And to have a 3000 shield you would need to be sitting on 6000 mana so good luck with that. Manamune to Sheen is a decent opener, but grabbing CDR is king on Blitz, so grabbing a Glacial Shroud is a top priority before completing a Trinity.

I prefer grabbing an early cata on him, though that doesn't seem very popular with a lot of people. Then I normally get Tear into Manamune, then if I'm tanky enough I get Trinity and finish the cata into a Banshee's.

I rush Manamune on the robot, works great on him.
After that it's all situational, though Trinity should be a late game goal.

I've played him that way a million times. I meant 3000 mana. Triforce gives him that utility you need. Health, movement speed, the sheen buff. Both are great items, but I'll take the triforce first.
You don't have to agree with me, but I know what I've been successful with and triforce after manamune is almost always successful.
Whatever works for you. Because Blitz is fairly mana intensive I find it hard to keep my mana up high enough where I feel comfortable using my shield as anything I'd rely on. It's great for baiting and saves, but I find its practical purposes in fights to be limited.Kod1ak said:

I was looking at a LoL wiki, and it was claiming that upcoming work-in-progress champions include a nine-tailed fox and two DPS possibly ranged yordles.
I look forward to potential anti-yordle rage from theAchtius public if this happens.
*edit*
On another note, is Pantheon viable these days, and if so, does he fit into some reasonable role on teams? I was reading up on champions that benefit the most from AD, and he was mentioned several times. I suspect his ult is really hard to hit people with, however. I would like to try using him as well as Lux, but I never seem to notice them being free (I probably missed a free Lux week).

Pantheon requires a full set of armor pen marks, so don't bother unless you have that. If you do, he can be pretty strong against certain champs. He falls off a LOT late game though, and requires you to buy a lot of damage to keep your abilities competitive. Pretty fun champ though.
Panth is a squishy with zero defense if you buy damage. He'll just be eaten away with any burst. If you build tanky, then he really isn't a threat since his damage output will be so underwhelming.Nome said:
Ideally with Panth, you want to end the game as soon as possible. Because you'll be utterly worthless after a certain point. Either to squishy to eat the damage or too little damage to make a difference.
My advice would be just to avoid him completely.
I think I have +15 or so armor penetration, and I might have an arpen quint lying around, but I guess I'll pass him up since you say he's terrible late game. Like, thanks for raining on my parade, MAN. ;(Nome said:
On a less depressing note, I read some random forum person saying that warwick's ult makes him essentially do 5 normal attacks at 33% of his AD each, but that each attack apparently applies the on-hit bonus for things like wits end? I dunno if that's true or not but that would be neat. I always feel like the ult is sorta like a stun that does maybe 20-25% of the enemy's HP so nearby teammates can try to hurt the person.
Yes, and I remembered the comment when I was reading it.bjaelke said:
However, like with every piece of advice in this thread, someone else says the opposite, and I seem to recall someone posting a couple of weeks ago saying that no matter what, bloodrazor will always do less damage than more AD/crit/AS/whatever, because the %HP magic damage bloodrazor does can be reduced by magic resistance. Something like that. And it's not like warwick will ever have AP or magic penetration.
I didn't see your Annie, but I'm going to guess they were either A) new or B) trying to use a mejai's and failing miserably or C) both.Ferrio said:

I really wish the birthday surprise was a little more than a Fiddlesticks skin. :/
Pantheon fits into the "tanky bruiser/initiator" role in teams. He scales well enough with AD that building him tanky doesnt gimp him (Warmogs + Atmas). When you play him you MUST dominate early game though this lets you boost into warmogs properly (this is why you'd want a full set of red+quint Arpen).Blizzard said:
You know who benefits the most from AD? AD carries! :O. Especially Graves who benefits the from AD.
Or Talon. He scales tremendously with AD and is a really strong champion right now.
This advice is true for AD carries. Not only is Madreds lowered by MR, it doesn't scale as well as other AD items. Madred's basically scales (your own stats) with attack speed only while other AD items scale with crit, AD, attack speed and armor pen.Blizzard said:
WW however isn't an AD carry and his job is to initiate/CC and live long enough in team fights to be real annoying - on hit weapons are best for this because living longer means more damage. I'd never rush Madreds on WW though (unless youre getting really fed early game) because it's so slow to build and not that great until mid-late.

Magewick is pretty common actually. It's extremely viable in lane. Start with a Doran's Ring or Faerie Charm (then build that into Philo) for the mana regen, take magic pen marks, grab magic pen boots, spirit visage for the extra heal, then Wit's End, Malady, and Madred's. There was a point where Lanewick was brokenly OP both top and mid.
Edit: As for Trundle. I'm pretty good at him, but he's extremely fragile as jungle, so make sure you are following some sort of guide to a t. His ganks are pretty great though.
I find he's pretty unstoppable late game if you get to that point, he has natural CC reduction, and ult that does damage and makes him super tanky, a natural AD buff, and pillar of filth is freaking great ability. Build him a lot like other junglers: Wriggle's, Merc Treds, Spirit Visage/Trinity Force, Banshee's/other Armor item, Guardian Angel.

I'm so sick of having perfect jungles early game and getting destroyed late gate simply because your team won't focus the carries.
Hmm...who should we hit first? Cho'gath or Kennen before he ults?
TOUGH CALL.
Also, some guy in my lobby is streaming us apparently.
