And if you're practicing quick cast without indicators, it's good to know the feel of where your spell/flash will land.
They're too many positives to a training mode.

(I might be a bit happy about that buff thing, and might have called a tower themed mechanic to match his lore a while ago, even if I was totes wrong about him being a mage-update autopick).
Ziggs has been in a ho-hum at best spot for way too long, and i am very happy to see him becoming more unique in a meaningful way. He's the only midlaner I really enjoy playing so when he "rotates" into a spot he's in like right now I don't even feel like playing Mid (even if i still proceed to pick Ziggs and then usually do ok).
Kinda crazy that they say this is mage update thing isn't on par with the ADC one. Sure seems like it to me overall.

I made it 2 damn days with League un-installed.

Rule#1 about uninstalling league: Never actually uninstall league
I mean...it's one of those things where people are going to pick up on how others flash over walls by seeing it in game, and I don't think the replication process is obtuse in any way. You walk close to the wall and you flash over it. There is virtually nothing to practice other than to get a feel for the game, which I feel comes out best through real experience.
I totally get the desire to have these tools in place, but it's hard to really justify resources being diverted to these things when there are priorities like reworking the client.

I mean...it's not like Riot isn't working on multiple things at once. And something like Sandbox mode is wanted by alot of players, both low level and high level and everyone in between.
And it's useful to boot. 'There is virtually nothing to practice' nooooooo. That's wroooong. There's alot to practice. Having to start a game to practice flashing, or having to level up to practice combos with characters is a drag.
There is PLENTY to practice.

These things are pushed through on multiple levels. People working on the client would also need to implement code + UI elements that lead players to this place. Adding things potentially conflicts with stability in all sorts of places. These pieces are connected. To write these things off as "simple" undermines the amount of work that comes about just from implementing small features or changes.
The question is not whether or not it can be done, but what resources get allocated to which projects. It is difficult to see practice mode as any kind of priority when Riot is actively working on huge projects that impact the entire playerbase.
:^D
i like this a lot more than the other ahri fanart you usually post. they all use the same face and never diverge. this one is a lot different
i posted about this above, there's a lot of departments working on it because everything at riot goes through a billion departments, but the implementation itself is simple and what would be required of every department is little
the issue here is not how difficult it is to implement but the amout of red tape that comes of how freaking huge league is. in a smaller studio this would be thrown together in a day, at riot this takes forever because there's a billion certification processes it has to go through, which is fine for things that actually matter like champion and skin releases, balance changes and general game functionality, but for a smaller "always beta" thing that's just meant to be used by people that know what they're doing this is a nightmare
i resent this praise
all the ahris i post are special

Relearning this game is a bitch.
Did you guys know Shen got a remake? HE GOT A REMAKE! I love shen. I don't know what he does now. I do know there's a floaty sword.

nu-shen is kinda boring tbh
???
Much better than old Shen for me. Couldn't feel any nuance to how Shen used to work really. You throw Q everywhere. Shield on demand. Just keep autoing and passive does what it needs to. Now there's something to lining up passive shield with cooldowns and bigger on demand power with openings off block shield.

league editors are so amusing. from official to community content. it's all ace.
It wasn't meant to downplay the other fanart. :b i just enjoy it when they do something different with the character they draw.

I'm going to do my best to remember this.
Broke my 6 loss stream with a win. Next game? Lost because Top thought he was Jungle....so he picked Amumu. Turns out a top Amumu with smite doesn't do too hot against Sion.
Jung: Warrior/Red smite, death dance, Maw/Steraks, Last Whisper.

Deaths Dance and Lord Dom are pretty much always key on him right?
bot
Deathsdance, CDR boots, PD, Maw or Steracks, ER or IE, Duskblade or BT or Dominiks
warlords for shitty matchups, thunderlords for good matchups

That pic makes me hungry because her eyes look like a couple of over easy eggs
You only go last whisper as a 5th or 6th item. Games usually don't last that long.
Death dance is core, yeah.
You can go Phantom Dancer after warrior and deaths dance if you're snowballing and farming well.

fuck solo queue
First two matches in nearly two weeks, both Kindred jungle, both 20 minute stompy losses. I don't think I had one competent teammate between the two matches. Good news is that I was able to do well early on in both matches, but I could see the disaster of each match coming a mile away during champ select. Leaves me sour to lose two in a row so badly, but their comps were much, much stronger than ours so I'll try not to dwell on it.
On a side note, Mecha Zero Sion is fucking awesome.

Alright so unless I'm jungling, Deaths Dance first.
Rune set up? AS important for his passive or can is ArPen better? Or AD?

I have to get better at knowing when to let a teammate die. Last game, our Azir completely stopped moving in enemy mid-lane after we took a tower. Two melee champs hopped on him, and instead of hauling ass I used Leona ult on them, then E->Q into them to try and hold off. It was, of course, pointless and they slaughtered him. Then I died. A moment later it become obvious he was typing like a moron.
Other cases are less obvious....but in general I suck at it. I feel like I'm way too willing to throw myself into the enemy to save a teammate, and we both die in the process.

Malwarebytes just blocked something called Virus.Injector.LoL.
What do I do?
EDIT:
Apparently it's a false positive.

oh yeah dynamic queue has lowered the individual skill of everyone in plat to the point where i cant tell if i didnt accidentally log onto my smurf
These type of people are legit cancer. It's like they just can't ever admit that they made a mistake one time. They are also generally the type of people to micromanage every single action of every other player on the rift but can't take one ping/criticism themselves.

Did you report the "shitty ass Cait" like Lee Sin suggested?
I did but I didn't know what my takeaway was supposed to be.

Yesterday I found out that Jhin gets absolutely shit on by Vayne if she ever gets close to him. Chalk that up to things that makes sense when I think about it, but had never occurred to me. Incidentally I've been enjoying Jhin so much he'll probably be the first champ I get to rank 5 mastery.
Also reworked shen is awesome. His new trading pattern in lane is really fun if you can pull it off and I feel like he's generally just a bit more interesting to play than he used to be.
