Ire is so OP, don't you know? She's instant ban in every high rank game!Halycon said:
Why? Because people can't handle normally low damage, easy to loose tanks? A good Shen or Ram is still fairly manageable, but difficult. A good Singed is beyond brutal.Lead Based Paint said:
Looking at patch notes. Kass nerfs, Zilean nerfs, and a few more. Basically my favorites are safe ^_^

loose tanks? like sexually?
But in all seriousness it's not about "manning up" and not banning them, it's just proven that the four main tanks all have abilities that I and most would consider detrimental to gameplay.
Amumu's aoe ult is a invitation for cheesy aoe ult builds
Malphite's aoe ult does the same.
Shen's taunt and gobal ult shield take global champ teams over the edge in terms of constant shit to be ready for.
And Rammus' taunt and powerball are just not fun to deal with.
The decision lies in preferring not to have to deal with Tanks that have taunts and aoe Ults which in my opinion are the biggest threat to a good, even match.

Yeah I start liking the build, the early game is weaker, but at least I don't have to spam heal myself. I still prefer to sell those stone instead of upgrading it.
Talking about Sona, they nerfed her early game again, low level cost more mana (high level cost less), does less damage, and all her healing got nerfed big time (both based and AP ration wth). I am not sure about the new passive, I don't see myself using the 20% debuff or the 30% slow.

That's what's pretty awesome about the stones; you can upgrade them, or sell them, but it benefits you either way because by the time you are in a position to do so they've paid themselves back and then some. I think what they did to her passive is... interesting. And they buffed her base heal, so it should be slightly more useful, but lowering the AP ratio really hurts. At least her R is more usable.
Also, the stones allow you to be more aggressive early game. You can spam Q more, and you can run in and out while taking a couple of hits.

Is Karma bad? Been wondering if I should buy her. Also been thinking about finally picking up Malzahar. He seems like he can rape face.

Karma is a decent hero. I think she's an amazing support.
So good. I think I'm getting decent with Maokai.

You fear the good team comp, I fear the characters who break up the good team comp. For every good one I see of them, I also see 2 or 3 just kited into oblivion.Lead Based Paint said:
I play fairly passive with good map awareness, So I never had much of a problem with her. Not to say, there haven't been games where she becomes a fed beast. But everytime that happens, it's the team's fault or player. She's a squishy eater. Heh.Halycon said:
I don't think Karma is bad, but she's just not very good. She is definitely a difficult character to play. She's a support, who has to be in close range. Unlike Sona or Janna who can hang back and kite like bosses. She doesn't have the luxery, and seems to get killed extremely easily unless you have a strong CC team who can protect her(Not bad for a heavy melee team).Jazzy Network said:
Malz has an extremely brutal "qwer" combo. We're talking instant death for pretty much anyone but the tank. But he's also easy to interrupt. He's decent to be honest.
Similar to how I play Nasus, but Ire can also harass fairly well too instead of waiting for that moment where they done fucked up.Halycon said:
The self heal+Leblac dash in/out. Against certain squishies, she can absolutely wreck their shit.
Had a fantastic loss though, just now. Our WW and TF were both "Pro" players. So basically, they both sucked and screamed at each other.

I guess it's just a matter of preference.
For me, I trust no one other than myself and my friend so I see those 4 guys as the pieces to the cheese puzzle that won't screw me over per se, but rather rip my teammates apart.
I would rather just not take the chance.
Pretty good jungle, ganking and carry potential.
I loled at everyone who thought his ult would be some kind of game changing thing. Your vision radius is still pretty damn big.
The blink portion though, that shit is just nuts.

I disagree.
As Maokai, I was trying to snare an enemy that was chasing an ally. Paranoia hit, and I lost them both. Turns out they were just out of vision, but within range of snare, so I couldn't do anything until it was too late.

Not to mention the scary sound effect, and the whole screen turn black, as Sona your whole team disappear in front of you.
I scream like a little girl every time someone activate it. Had a game earlier with Noct in both team, was horrifying as squishy support.

Could it be better and more terrifying? Yeah. If it only did that, then it'd need to be melee range vision. However, since he has blink, some range is justifiable.Halycon said:

I used to play Teemo a lot during beta, but strayed away from him because he seemed kinda meh compared to others champs.
I decided to try him yesterday for old times sake and use an AP build (I always used to build him AS/AD) I came across on Leaguecraft. I had 2 really good games with it, the build is really effective.

His ult isn't what matters, as much as the combination of the other three skills. Which is absolutely brutal for ganking early game. The ult is just icing on the cake. The speed bonus+ignore collusion, the charge+ignoring one attack, and the fear all in unison. We still won both of the games versus him, but he had to of had over 460 movement to catch up with my Janna.
All I know is, I'm getting carried pretty hard in my last few games.
Edit: Nocturne has to be currently bugged or something? His charge or whatever is going 1/4 of the way across the map.

Edit: Nocturne has to be currently bugged or something? His charge or whatever is going 1/4 of the way across the map.
My first game as Nocturne I went 14-6. Started off 7-0. But I was feeding off an easy Sivir and stole a kill or two. The other team was mostly AD except Katarina so I built a Thornmail (F'ing Nasus) but I was still getting dropped quite easily late game.
His early game and gank potential is crazy. I sniped 2 or 3 kills with Duskbringer when people thought they were safe .... range on it is pretty far.
It is quite key to absorb some sort of spell when ganking with your W. I'd almost always be able to absorb the Wither from Nasus or Sivirs Boomerang ... then it became easy pickins.
My 2nd game with him wasn't so great (5-6 I think) but we had a feeder Poppy and a Tryndamere who didn't let me jungle in the beginning. They also had a Nocturne / TF Combo.

Not Nocturne-related, but I wish we either had pages for Masteries like we have pages for runes, or that each champion we choose have their own presets tied to them.
I've had a couple of games where I forget to switch masteries or runes (or even spells!) and it throws off the whole game for me.

Jungling Order:
Blue golem -> Wolves -> Wraiths -> Small Golems -> Gank or B -> Red -> Wolves -> Wraiths -> Golems -> Ganke
Of course there's no reason to start at blue golem as far as I can tell, he's not really dependent on mana at all in the jungling phase
Damage and ap ratio was toned down on her ult (like it matters). Ap ratio toned down on her nuke (lol APrelia). And she lost about 60 base hp.
Seems intentional, Riot needs to look up the definition of the word "nearby". The first time I popped his ult I was like "wtf where's the range circle?" until I realized it extended farther than Ashe's Hawk at lower levels.

use AutoLol for masteries switching..FlightOfHeaven said:
you save a template in the program, then when you wish to change to that template simply
1) oepn Autolol
2) select the desired mastery from mastery browser
3) open mastery screen in the champion select
4) press "play" in AutoLol
5) wait 4 sec
6) press save masteries in Lol
Done
I just bought Karma the other day, while I am satisfied with my purchase I wish I could've just saved for Jarvan instead. Sure he's free this week but lol, he's so freaking fun to play. Jumping on to people while screaming DDDEEMMAACCIIAAAAA is so satisfying and he hits so freaking hard.

Great games guys, was a lot of fun. I think we showed the other teams what GAF power really is.
While we forgot a screenshot of the results for the first game, I submitted my logs and you guys can see the results here: http://www.lolbase.net/matches/view/US106822003
The second game, I think someone else got a screen of, but it can also be seen here: http://www.lolbase.net/matches/view/US106841759
Some of the images are out of date on the website, so not all of the new heroes or items show up.

I got ya covered, stopsign.
I only got the second game, but I am ashamed of my performance tonight. I swear, I'm normally not that bad. Like, check out the game RIGHT AFTER:

But yeah, playing with GAFfers is a blast. Nothin' like team chat.

Are people still getting Banshee's as often with the cooldown now 45 secs? That's a lot
this community can be so terrible i cannot comprehend it
it's like counter strike only you're stuck with them for the next 20-50 minutes
also, only jerks play teemo. this is scientific fact. played against 3 different teemos today who ended up calling everyone faggots and in general being huge pieces of shit regardless if they're doing bad or good
mah gawd

At around 1450 now. I've seen a mix of good and bad Noc's. That ult can mess up the enemy chasing a teammate which made for some hilarious escapes and bitching by his teammates lol. At the same time, I've been playing Shen if he doesn't get banned and that ult totally messes up mines, can't select fools I can't see!
I want in on these gaf games!

Also, I fell asleep, woke up, and played a game. I'm addicted. : /
But had a pretty epic game! Nothing compares to the GAF games, though.

I don't recall but does it show character health? I'll keep that in mind if I know which hero is already being attacked but if I don't, you know some shit is going on but you just dunno where lol. Add me! y2dvd
And yeah, I'm addicted again as well esp now that I'm getting good winning streaks. :|

I wasn't really paying attention specifically, but it seemed like you were doing fairly well in the games Flight, your score just didn't balance out. You also had tele which saved quite a few towers for us.
Rook is one of my friends in those games because we didn't have a fifth, and he quite enjoyed the experience. The game is soo much better on mics (even though mine broke recently), makes it more entertaining and easier to plan things out.

I bought nocturne. You voice is so fucking perfect!
He is pretty good, but needs a good team really. You are not supposed to go in right away in a fight, gotta wait a few secs, pop ult, zooom to a carry/squichy and go to town!
Anyone got a good build yet? Been using the recommended items :3 Though he does not need zerkers boots as his W passive gives 40%... dunno why they went with that

We need to arrange more team games. Or are we all on nightly? I'll need to be adding more folks.
