Ashe = 0 mechanics. You can get away with doing nothing but pressing W and the occasional R to set up for your teammates.
Riot must love newbies like myself. So yesterday I see Pantheon's Dragon Slayer skin going on sale and I wished I had the champion so I could buy it. But I was planning to save the IP to buy Pantheon later in a few months.
Anyways... I see the Mystery Champion thing yesterday so figure I'd buy 1 champ that way. Was hoping for a 6300 ip champ like Elise or Lucian. Anyway I land on Panthoen lol. So played him in a match, won it due to the exceptional team I was on, etc and decided to buy the skin.
Riot is looting my wallet like I'm a chest lol. I usually buy at least 2800 RP bout every couple of weeks (2-3)

I played my first game after getting a rank. I had to play Annie mid in Zed, I lost lane early cause his w>e>q did like half of my health. But my top lane won lane and my bot lane didn't farm better than the other team. The thing about the other team was that they where all ad so it should have been easy but we didn't have an tank expect lulu and Warwick. We where winning the match in the middle of the game by letting them go in and we counting their engage because of lulu ult , my ult and Warwick ult. We kept winning fights like that til our top lane morde stays mid when we where all trying to back off. Then they rush us and we get aced and they take baron. After a bunch of turtling for every we lose all 3 inhib and both nexus tower. The other team gets greedy and we ace then and push to win.

lowest skill floor for an adc in the game lol
Maybe if you want to do next to no damage.
Ashe requires really good positioning and kiting ability. She has 0 escapes and a mild slowing attack. Her nerfed Q is a lot harder to charge now and requires some thought to get the most out of it. She's not that easy to play.

And so comes the Destroyer of League, the server move. After Costy cast his evil powers to not only stop work on Dragon Master Swain, he also took our Servers away. This is the end.

Having to be the frontline for a team that splits off to deal with a full tank Cho split pushing makes me cry tears of blood
Uh, it makes a huge difference to people in the Midwest or on the East Coast.

They should put her free kiting on a 10 second internal cooldown
@_@
people who still suck and blame it on ping
will continue to suck

I can't wait for server move, especially since I live in Illinois just 2 hours away from Chicago. I'm at a healthy 80 ping right now. I look forward to the future.
Anyone here play a lot of Gnar? I bought him on an impulse, and damn he is fun. However, I just about always lose laning phase in CS by a good 20-30. I am using a very tanky build, and am rethinking if I should try a more focused offensive set of runes/masteries.

I moved from 110 ping to 70 ping in June and have gone from Gold 3 to Plat 4 (in my promos for Plat 3 right now). Some of that has been taking the game more seriously, but I find I hit and dodge a few more skill shots than I used to which definitely helps as well.
Agreed. I used to play on 110, play on around 45 these days. Some minor changes, but it's mostly based on how you play.

So the people that are good and are whining about their ping increasing can stop bitching as well
I don't think it's a placebo effect at all. The difference between 120 and 90 ping is pretty significant imo. The game just feels better.

Ping improves my matches by allowing me to cs more and dodge skill shots better. Split second mechanical stuff like lee sin and azir insec is also almost impossible without relatively low ping.

Nah because riots just punishing them. We'll still do good, but it's a punishment never-the-less.
They should just let you select servers in various locations. Monetizing different servers is stupid as fuck.
i just wasted an hour of my life playing a game with a fed annie that refused to actually do anything
I mean we would literally one shot their jinx then everyone backed while I'm warrior into full tank vi trying to push waves and pinging like a madman to no avail
where the fuck am i

There are definitely days when I can't play Lee Sin because of ping. It's a very real issue for some champs. The fact that I'm on wifi doesn't help either, but that's a different issue (if my neighbour decides to use their microwave, I DC until their food is ready).
On days when the ping averages above 120, I play a lot of Singed.

Had about 5 Kennens in my last 10 games and lost each game. Where has this sudden surge in popularity come from?

Is anyone here currently playing with pings below 80? If so, I'm jealous.
OK I had 2 games (both Sona) with one being really bad against Xereth where all his ability hit me. Its really hard t dodge his stuff or he was good at reading me
But the second one against a Thresh went really good and had S-. The trick I found is to actually go for thresh and make him try to hook you and then dodge.
If anyone have a tip how to play against a Xereth (with Sona) I would gladly listen.
I tend to ban Ekko if I am in charge, but maybe I shouldn't from the sound of things.

Time your E so you use it to speed out of the way when you see him throw a move, all his spells are pretty telegraphed. My finest ever Sona moment had me 1v1 a Xerath as I literally ran circles around him while he missed all his spells.
