Instead of potentially nerfing champs who suddenly do well at not, why not make marksmen more viable in other lanes as well?

You have no idea how much seeing "potential Ashe buffs" triggers me
Maybe don't nerf multiple things about her kit except what was a problem and THEN nerf the problem and some extra stuff on top of it next time.
You can't have both unless the champions are grossly overpowered.

Because in order to do that then they need to be shit in 2v2 lanes.

how many games do you guys usually play on a Friday night?
I want to prioritise people for casting that haven't done it before or likely won't be playing. I've got Scy, Fallen, Kayos, Breezy and Type2 that have expressed interest.

AD Ezreal has seen pro play mid and bot though.
For non 2v2s, I'm pretty sure Kindred was played a few times mid instead of her usual jungle. Graves went out of the jungle to play top a few times too.

Ez and Corki work mid because they are super safe. Graves and Kindred fall under the "grossly overpowered" bit.
Meddler on junglers being too strong said:
It would be nice if the bot lane parties slowed down so you could get some good 2v2 action.

How do we even stop that though, more TP nerfs? Weaker mid lane turrets so roaming is riskier?
I trust Riot to find a way but I certainly can't think of one.

just lower exp gains from all lanes by 50%
that way you have a 50% longer game
problem solved, all the 'cool plays' at bot that you want

Ideally each of the lanes should have a decent impact on the game, some games bot should have an impact on the map before top/mid gets to heavily impact bot.
Yeah, there's not really anything obvious. Increasing duo lane xp gain so solo laners won't be that much ahead might help, but that can open up tons of other balance issues.

Personally I'd really love for us to revisit the Rift Herald again. I think a lot can be gained by giving a jungler a meaningful reason to play around top side. Right now the two juicy targets in bot lane and the dragon make that side of the map too appealing.

Increasing shared XP wouldn't really do much for ADCs as much as it would do for new picks like mages, not sure that would be wise right now.
Oh, and I missed this bit:
Get fucking ready

Yeah, that's the balance issues that would happen. It could give us a stronger bot lane, but ADCs might get the short end of the stick.

I'd like to see it get crazy, and move the Rift Herald/Baron to Dragon's spot, and vice-versa. Then see what chaos ensues.
I was joking at first...but the more I think about it the more I like it.
5:30 EST, right?
What would happen is that adc/supp would go top and the old top laners would go bot. The proximity to drake is the reason for where the duo lane is.
Holy shit. There's a guy in my lobby with 443 ranked games already this season. All on Graves.

Reading these tank damage / mid agency bits, maybe its time for ADCs to get some extra base MR?

let's see
when did this season start? December 7th? that's...like 28 days into this season..he played an average of...16 games each day?
well
I guess he has no school or work
Graves is essentially a troll pick right now anyways.
If someone tries to put an extra marksman on your team, you know they're probably dumb af.

I love it when full tank Zac outdamages everyone else in the game. It's so much fun playing against an unkillable assassin with endless CC. xD
I think summoner spells as whole have a significant amount of design space that is woefully unexplored and I've been questioning almost everything about how they are currently implemented. I think many of the game's issues could be mitigated by cracking that little nut wide open. Given that Riot loves to talk about adapting to games, changing item builds to suit circumstances, etc. (all of which I totally agree with) LoL has an awful lot of the stuff that is fixed in place before the loading screen even pops up.
Until Rift Herald gives a teamwide boost it'll always be way behind dragons in importance.
Unpopular opinion: I think Zac is a bigger problem in the jungle than Hecarim or Vi. I don't know how he's been allowed to totally outclass every other tank jungler in the game for months.

OKay...well that isn't as exciting as I'd hoped. But you're absolutely right. OK---new idea. Put dragon and baron in the same spot.
Jeez. I played 7 games last night and felt like it was a ridiculous amount.
Probably be a pain in the ass to implement but randomize the spawn locations of all drakes, Rift Herald, Baron, and Elder Dragon.
Fallout would be a fucking gongshow, but maybe a gongshow would be fun.

Really bummed to come back to this game and find my 2nd favorite champion, Aurelion Sol, has become junk. I thought he was a bit too strong when I was still playing 6 months ago, but lordy....they took him to the complete other end of the spectrum. I'll try a few more games in case I'm way off.
I'll cast no problem.
I can play again on the good old free champs and 120 ping. No ganking me tho, that's unfair lul
I'll play some games on the account after the game I'm in so I can get some levels and hopefully enough to buy a champ or something.
ayo costy hit me up on the down low with one of those unlocked accounts for pros, won't tell no one
Dw, I saw Ghost tryharding against you.
i can instalock yasuo anytime
Oh shoot, normally I get off at 7 EST on Fridays but tomorrow will be 5 EST. Probably won't be back in time for game one but if someone drops for game 2 i'll be available. Is the plan for Costy's stream again?
I agree with the Zac sentiment earlier. The combination of his slingshot, CC, and survivablitiy from building tank + Courage is often too much to deal with.

NA? Sometimes I just have time for a bot game over there to get my 150ip. Add me scrub.

Mudkira, but you'd know that if you actually read the op of the inhouse game.
Disappointed.
I only remember the names of good players. Sorry.

You must feel like a JRPG main character every time you get autofilled something other than mid then
I have no comeback to that.
