Playing Sion and rushing ZZrot has shown me so much.
Like how people don't seem to give a fuck that you're laying ZZrots around until late game. As in, they don't counter your rot by having someone buy their own and by the time they do (IF they do ... they rarely do) it's too late, you're storming their base.
Also, dropping rots seems to sometimes inspire someone else on your team to do the same.
I also love how it's a item that makes money. Was mid once with a EZ top (Why? IDK ..) vs a Nasus top. By the time I was able to complete my rott it dawned on me that "Fuck ... they have a Nasus and I already have 2 parts to the Rott". I got it anyway figuring that seeing how the towers were up and it was early he would stay top. After having it down for a bit I see this mofo just sit in my lane which sparks a team fight. I didn't drop it again but was able to sell it and buy another tank item from the gold it earned.

On the other hand, I don't understand why people don't use Rot portals as bait.
Set up a rot in a easy to get place and just camp the bush. Kill the guy who comes to get it and push the lane down with the Rot.
People just let them get taken for free sometimes. Really confuses me.

I WANT to do this! But unless I'm building some DMG items I feel like I'd need a 2nd person to sit there with me if I want a straight clean kill and it feel like often times people just kinda do their own thing and if it lines up with someone else they stick together in solo.
Gonna try typing that out though.
Normally I just use them from behind a tower to push the lane and after some towers are down I drop one down when I'm splitting to speed things up or leave one in a decent bust to push as I group up.

Yes. I feel Taliyah is just weak.
Also, this game was fucking nuts. Oh my god. So I banned his tali, and I gifted him a mystery skin as a 'sorry', he got blood moon kennen. He gifted me back, I got Program Lissandra!(I don't play Lissandra BUT IT'S OK I'MA MAIN HER.)
Presented with Context-Our team was down in the dumps. Katarina and Lucian were beyond fed. Our eve dced for 8 minutes in mid game. We lost every dragon, an inhib, they still had outer bot tower 44 minutes into the game. Luci was single handedly carrying them.
And....we won. Between me, Lux, Janna and Eve, we locked down Luci, and they fell like Dominos. Made a push down mid(This is when timers are at 50 seconds), Blitzcrank was the first to die at his inhib tower. We took down the inhib, kept pushing, Luci respawned but died again, and we beat the turret. It was a great game. Game of the night. I did pretty decent as new vlad too(First time trying him out after remake.)
If I were to pinpoint one mistake they made, the one thing that caused them to lose, was that J4 wasn't taking the initiative when it came to initiating. He popped his ultimate...about 3-4 times after laning phase was over, even though we had bad positions, he didn't take advantage of it. Just a lack of initiation by a pretty tanky J4 lost them. Half the time we were the ones starting the teamfights. What a great game. I think this is one of my top games in a while, this week defnitely.

Such a strange match.
Sooo many kills being split between just 2 champs ...
Anyway, match gave me a S- for Sion which puts me half way to getting super special rank 6 ..
Mid/ ADC and JG were a premade ... I have no clue how Mid ate it soo hard but he has the lowest CS in the game by a mile :/
Thought we were done fore when I saw how hard he was feeding ... until I remembered that they're a full AD team and are pretty piss easy to itemize against. Shoulda gotten Ninja Tabs but I wasn't biting it so I guess it never crossed my mind.

Is ranked decay still a thing if you don't play for a month?
If you're plat or above, yes.

Sweet.
I can't go into ranked yet as I'm having to play via the couch. A it turns out, couches aren't the best mouse surfaces :<

I'm still reeling over that game last night. Shut down league, nothing satisfying will ever come out of it again until Dragon Master Swain.
I usually use it yo build up a big wave whenever an objective is coming on the other side, or if the other team is pressuring a certain lane and tunneling on it. I'll just place it on the opposite lane.
imagine, instead of a silly laser dragon beatrice can shoot fire
the flaming aura for your ult
the dragon claws erupting from the ground to snare your foes

I had a better design for it
Swain gets 3 tiny dragons that follow him
One does his Q
For W, the dragon circles an area than shoots fire in a wheel like aspect that snares
For E, the third dragon just shoots a fireball that "ignites" the opponent
For his ultimate, each rank he takes on an aspect of one of his dragons. For level 2 and 3, he gains an extra head. Oh and his abilities now come from him while ulted..but I thought of that before they changed his Q ._.

Rank 3 ult with Dragon Master skin = after getting Elder Dragon to 500HP, Swain takes control of it for 2 minutes.

Support Fiddlesticks. What? Didn't even buy a sightstone the whole game. Kept CS'ing from his ADC. He ended up with 80+ CS. I just....I don't understand why someone like that is playing Ranked. He isn't even close to being competitive.
Soraka URF was kind of fun. I was against a Talon mid and he got so annoyed he couldn't do anything to me, he just left and roamed instead, I won our last teamfight when the enemy tried to tunnel on our Kindred while in her ult and I just silenced like four of them and they all died.

Lower CD on Drain and more bounces on E made supp Fiddle annoying to deal with again. He's easy to counter with aggressive picks though.

Got a chest form URF. Santa Gragas.
EDIT:
Not fun outside of the novelty of 80% CDR if you're not playing with friends.

Then people start making ARAM-like accounts and presto, mode is ruined.
Random modes will never work unless all champions are avaiable at all times.
So you want all ADCs to be gods at all points in the game? That won't get old quickly

Honestly as long as he has his dash and double shot steroid, he's going to simply outclass other ADCs for those reasons alone.
Remove his dash and put something else, and honestly he would be an ok ADC as is
I remember I used to build Youmou's on Tristana like 5th or something.
Yeah it's so disappointing to have read all that.
Yo' I love Jamiroquai, thanks!
nah i just wanna have fun playing lucian ;__;

Fun does not belong in bot lane.
Sure it does. Supports are a lot of fun to play.
ADCs are definitely not for fun and you should assume they will never be fun to play. Stop reading this post and go practice last hitting.
the beauty of lucian is that you can take him top and mid too! :^)
