3 ways:
1. Before he has his tear, he has to be really conservative with his mana. If you have a high early burst champion you can pressure him well.
2. Cho. Yorick can't do anything against cho, and ghouls actually help cho. More of a stalemate lane.
3. Range character, and just be passive and farm. Yorick end game isn't too bad, and he really relies on his AD carry. If the AD carry on their team was shut down, then so was yorick's end game.

I assume it means more minions to kill aka more regen.

I've had her for a while, but she's really the only AD Ranged Carry I own. Like I said I never play AD Carry. I usually end up playing Sona/Soraka or else I go Mid/Jungle.

He can devour them.
Exactly, he's tanky enough they don't bother him much and if he kills them he heals.

So I tried Nautilus for the first time about 3 days ago.
Really regretting my Sejuani purchase. Is there anyone worse than her?

She really does seem pretty crappy, especially compared to Nautilus. I guess I'm kind of surprised she didn't get an early buff, but maybe it will happen later.

She is literally the least played character. So much wrong with her kit.
Glass Cannon Fiora > Tanky dps fiora. Kiunch's build makes me gag!
Champions played less often than Sejuani according to League of Stats: Viktor, Zilean, Poppy, Orianna, Urgot, Karma, Heimerdinger, Evelynn. I see Dan Dinh trying to use her in competitive scrims, but he'd always wind up initiating super far away from the rest of his team and not being very helpful.
Gave jungle Fiddlesticks another try tonight. I just can't have fun with it though, way too mana intensive and the mana returns implemented in the jungle in the last patch are almost meaningless. Your choices are to spam abilities and have okay clear times and use all your mana or to just kind of...auto-attack.

Yeah, sure, based your build upon whether your enemy team know how to target. She already had built-in ad and attack speed, the only thing she lack is survivability.
Her ult is her survivability. Much like vayne, except her ult heals her to full if you build right.

One of those times where you dive past two turrets and suddenly realize, "Oh God, how did I get here?"
Thank you Janna.
So, after playing Fiora alot, I'm a fan. Still getting used to it, but so far I'm pretty consistent.
Modifying the build here or there, but it's pretty much revolves around three things.
1. a high damage item.
2. Some kinda life steal.
3. A last whisper.
Last game I went jungle, gave a first blood to top, and proceeded to gank a few lanes. From there I snowballed hard. In team fights I was pretty monstrous. Even with shen and leona on their team they couldn't take me down.

Yesterday I was playing a ranked as Gangplank against Yorick top.
It was quite a problem at the beginning, and then I realized something odd. If you kill a ghoul with the parley, it gives you the 2-8 bonus gold for the kill.
A little thing, but I don't know if it's a bug or working as intended.
(also, thank you Yorick for always using your ult on yourself, instead of ulting your Caitlyn that could do TONS OF DAMAGE, but died if we sneezed too hard on her)

Also, poor Fiddle lol. Every time I play Karthus and someone tells me to ult, I imagine a burly office man at his desk, like so:
Not sure if I approve of that LoL-machine, though.
Dayum. Not a single shit was given by dat Kog'maw.
Wow, how unlikely! You should either go play the lottery, or NOT step outside at all (you'll get hit by lightning)

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
Last night was a cluster. I got a couple of wins despite everything, but gosh dang.
So many AFKers on both sides. Got a win or two agains teams that were better than us purely because it was 5 on 4. Won a match where our team had an AFKer for the 1st 6 mins.
Plus so many unconventional match ups. People picking last with the need for an AD Carry to go bot and they pick Annie or someone calling Mid and then they pick Sona.
The whole night was just a cluster.
PS: I really suck, but I feel like I post enough in this thread I should try and play with GAF sometime. I worry about sucking so much in this game that my real life anxiety gets the best of me. Probably also why I've been lvl 30, and never play ranked. Anxiety gets the best of me.

I believe at IEM Kiev (was that the last one?) he had the highest K/D ratio of any player in the entire tournament.
All I remember from IEM Kiev is TSM picking Irelia into Shyvana for the second time (and getting controlled).
K/D means very little, esp at tournament level play. TRM has an extremely passive and careful playstyle (in lane at least) - which leads to him getting bullied and losing lane more often than he should, but contributing to low death numbers.

Just watch this and you'll become a champion.
Been paging over some guides for ranged AD carries to learn in the coming days. Sivir, Tristana, Graves are some of the ones I've been considering. Perhaps Vayne, but I've been told that she's really not worth the trouble of learning after her nerf.
Quick question about Rune selection: Between running a full set of ArPen or Damage Marks (Reds), which would be more effective on a generic ranged AD page?

This. The only champions he can play somewhat aggressively with are Tryndamere and Teemo afaik.

Hmm, that's almost EXACTLY the item combination I always go with for Riven (especially if you were building infinity edge). That makes her look a little more appealing to me.
Haha, now I just feel stupid for asking what was probably such a common question months ago. Thanks, though.
Edit (rather not make another post for this):
I think it does disable their pings, too. But the last time I've had to ignore a teammate for spamming ping was so long ago, so I'm not certain on this.

Grats man, getting that high is an impressive feat, especially in US soloq.
HE doesn't know how to counter pick. That's for sure.
Ya I build her a lot like riven. Early game dorans, brutalizer, latern, or just straight into a BF sword->item if i'm getting fed. She's a lot more fragile though, so you have to pick your fights carefully. I'm still not comfortable laning with her, as I've been put in the jungle most of t he time. I also feel safter in the jungle, and can farm without being hassled. Unfortunately when I jungle I'm forced to go latern, which delays her damage... but does get her the inital life steal she needs.

What the deal with the sentence: "Its just a normal game" and then that person feeds enough for Africa. Why don't these people try their shit builds like AD Kassadin in bot games?
Because even the shittiest builds work in bot games. If you want to properly test something, you do it against real people.
So here is some theory crafting for countering poppy top:
1. get a strong early game character like renekton/olaf/morde and harass and don't let her get any minions. If she is on the same cs as you, once she gets sheen, you lose.
2. If somehow she does get the same cs as you, build banshee's veil asap so you can actually farm and not get Q'ed all day. I don't know whether you can stop poppy snowballing at this point though.

Oh god I simply hate my normal ELO right now. I've been on a losing streak lately and thus have sunk so low that most games don't even have junglers, so I often find myself fighting for CS bot lane.
Also, I've become enamored with the idea of maximizing Graves' innate tankiness with an Aegis. I know that it's not optimal at all, but I really can't trust anyone to help me unless I'm queueing with someone. So GAF, would it kill you to be AFK a bit less often? Thanks!

I am going to keep making Kog'maw videos as long as dumb things keep happening. Hated my team, decided to just do everything by myself.
Lee Sin: nice
Nautilus may not be very good, but he has such an awesome voice. DO YOU HEAR THEM CALLING? *lumbers along magestically*
I was just lumbering around with a goth skin Annie and it was like Bioshock. I want to try that combo in a lane some time just to be funny. (it almost certainly wouldn't work since both of them need too much farm)

Thanks for the post. I really mean it.
So Hanover is starting in just 24 hours. I feel somewhat sorry for you guys in NA. The first game starts at 3 AM EST :/ Opening game is CLG vs Dignitas. I also think Riot has something special planned for the fans. Maybe a show match, a new cg trailer or something journal inspired (they've already teased their final journal of justice).

I have played Nautilus as a support. Just like you'd play Blitzcrank.

This. He really doesn't need farm, build Shurelya's.
