Are you sure he didn't say it was the most popular? I remember Mid and ADC being the top two in preseason.

But the premades will have similar MMR since thats the only way you can queue up
That was before ADCs got nerfed
Anecdotally I tend to get jungle far more often than top when I put them as my secondary roles
Depends on the elo is my guess. As you go higher up the % of jungle players probably goes up since people actually know how to jungle.
He said it was the second most in-demand, which means it's the second least popular.
Same for me as well. Split is roughly 3:1 for jungle over top.

Started matchmaking at 10:20 p.m.
It is now 10:46 p.m. and I have not gotten past picks and bans after 6 tries.
EDIT: MAKE THAT SEVEN. GOOD FUCKING GOD. I've been in queue for a match for more than 30 minutes.

That when you play normal Q

I really need to work on my CS, i have been really bad about it recently and notices it was lower than i would like. I need to not tunnel super hard.
Not wanted. Not welcome.
Potentially. Should never happen because it's too much AoE burst.

200/325/450 (+150% bonus AD) AoE damage is still a lot.
It adds up. So when you go to burst one person the damage has good spread. It can make a really big difference. W change is obviously bigger though.

I was playing normal queue. o.o
So I ended up going to ranked instead and that turned out pretty well
I can do the thing
I'm just gonna assume Trist was just holding that zzrot for nasus. Honestly though that's probably the least offensive bronze 5 game i've ever seen
J4 top has already been hovering around 50% win rate for a while now and these are some pretty solid buffs. It'll be interesting to see what happens if they go through

I thought you were in dynamic Q
I dunno, I'm pretty offended by that game. What a ridiculous collection of builds.

Do people still take Smite in-lane for jungle enchantments?
Mostmanlyman

No that was only with rune galive ez and with cinderhulk top.
Basically once they release a new jungle item then ppl always try it in lane.

Oh, derp, yes, I was in dynamic Q, just playing normals.

I know, but oddly enough, the game I played before it was even MORE of a clown fiesta.
She bought it to lane push. For herself. Which is all she did the entire game all alone. If you'll notice, Trist has a grand total of 5 combined kills and assists because she wasn't in the fights at all.
I knew something weird was up with her when she jumped away from me out of a bush around level 5, and then did it again at level 7, when I wasn't even a threat to chunk her out either time since I was just farming lane on my own.
There were a lot of small skirmishes and back and forth trades and a damn near throw by my team at dragon at one point (got the dragon but we got caught in the pit by a nasty ult chain)
You're telling me, pigeon. We ended up winning by keeping lanes farmed for about 30 minutes, taking objectives as we could, and then just punched up the middle lane and smacked them in the face a few times until we caught one of them out and then picked them all off (except Trist, who was still split pushing), went mid and took down the nexus while killing everyone off as they respawned one by one.

Bard's Q hits really hard, the enemy Bard was pretty agressive
I think it works well against tanks like Malphite because, as long as Rammus can survive or get ahead (jungler or whatever), there comes a point where he can kill you with AOE / taunt / ult damage if you try to 1v1. At that point, he can simply drop ZZ portal into the bush and unless you're a fast attack speed top laner, you can't kill it without dying.
So either your jungler sits top and you lose dragon, or you lose top tower and potentially the second tower as Rammus farms you.
Disclaimer: I am not a pro.
this went a lot better than i expected. also marks the first time i've had 10 more wins than losses in ranked. I've gotten a lot better over the last year, playing with Dobker and having him call me out on shit I'm doing bad every once in awhile. Also Bubble Hearth, who i think is Breakfasts(?).
All the stuff that was on the pbe, that may be in this coming patch.

The only Hecarim buff is more potential disruption on his e?
Oh come on. They got rid of homeguards, nerfed DMP, nerfed speed boots, nerfed his passive and nerfed his hp.
No wonder he's sitting at one of the lowest jungle winrates.

Did they even fix Hec's R->E?
And what's up with the Pantheon nerf? I think I only him like once in IEM (?).

2 games a day keeps the demotiona away. It is known.
Silver V play (which I assume is actually bronze): My bot lane had 27 deaths in 24 minutes. They gave up first blood before I even finished a third jungle camp.
Bot lane plus mid lane had 39 out of 48 deaths in 24 minutes.
At least I got an A+. It was pretty much a perfect example of "If [thing] keeps getting you killed, stop doing [thing]." Bot lane had Caitlyn Zyra against Graves Lux. Instead of staying back and using Caitlyn's range and the combined CC, they would walk into Graves + Lux and die, repeatedly, for an average of over once per minute.
*edit* I just played with a "Pancake Senpai" support Janna. It was hard to believe it wasn't someone from the thread.

Yeah. Doesn't make that big of a difference when mana costs are still crazy and Warrior Enchant is so weak.
The game isn't just balanced around competitive...
Dobkeratops, lookie what I did this night.
went on a 7 game win streak tonight. I should probably cut it off here and try for Silver later tomorrow. Won these games pretty decidedly by just split pushing and guiding teammates who didn't know what to do or who to follow at times. Pretty good day, got Friendly and Teamwork honors every game.
I was waiting for the great success story.
She's great with 40% CDR, just spam W all day. Too bad she's not so great right now because of broken shit like Naut, Panth and Udyr.
