Support NeoGAF

[Flare]

He's answering other questions in that thread too, in case you're interested.

Oh hey, he made Lulu. Expecting a fun champ. This means that she might be the support everyone's been waiting for since he was supposed to be designing the next support.

I thought they said that would be further out. Would be nice though.

 

[Ferrio]

i was gonna buy xerath but honestly fiora starting to look better all the time. just went 20/2/9 with her before i left my house. but i wanna wait till after she is nurfed before picking anything.

I'll be surprised if she is, there's people askign her to be but not many. Most people think she's UP due to her ability to be blown up easily. She's a pub stomper, in a real competive game she could be shut down hard.

If she's going to get nerfed it'll be after some high level players start rocking with her (like what happend wtih riven).

Yep, I was expecting it to be the 100th champ because it might have been something special. But all the begging and whining for a new support may have moved Lulu up the development queue.

anyone below level 30 who builds a proper fiora can shut teams down easily. just because people are so avrage and not used to the idea of parrie.

 

[ElectraStar]

The new champ kinda looks adorable.

Inspired by a certain beautiful butterfly I see. :3

Actually I was inspired by a certain beautiful AcridMeat!!!
No but really, last week was free Kog'maw week, and so I finally decided to take him for a spin.

 

[Blizzard]

Sheep stick yordle?! That sounds hilarious. I can't wait until it's used on someone like tryndamere in a teamfight.

 

[Volimar]

By the way polymorph is exactly what you probably guessed it to be:

SQUEEEE!!

 

[Flare]

Passive is an AA enhancer.. like.. all my other champions.

It forces you to think about obstructions in the way, but that's all.

You can donate your passive though, to someone else, temporarily.

She has 3 offensive spells and 3 defensive spells.

I like this. She sounds like an active support. Now to wait for a champ spotlight.

Argh! I have less than 1000 IP right now. Time to start farming...

 

[XeroSauce]

I love all of Xypherous's champs. That man is genius. Nautilus, Orianna, Riven, they are some of the most fun I've had on champs. I'm very glad to see that he is in charge of Lulu, I'll probably pick her up.

 

[Einbroch]

First ever 6300 champion I'm going to buy if she's in any way support. GIMME GIMME GIMME.

 

[Entwain]

oh god, so cute, blazblue vibe from this one, must get.

 

[MultiCore]

Neat.

By the way, if I wanted to play a casual game with GAF how do I go about doing that? I've joined the chat a few times but everyone seems to be in a game or I get no replies. I'm still a beginner so yeah.

Just keep hanging out in the chat. If you ever hope to actually play a gaf match, set it to autojoin on startup.

Most people are pretty cool, but it can be tough to get people to join a game, even though there may be 30+ people in the channel.

 

[y2dvd]

Slowly bringing my elo up. Solo Q...such a roller coaster.

 

[SouthernDragon]

That doesn't look like a rollercoaster to me...

Neat.

Start chatting up more, get your name in the chatroom. Invite people send them a message saying it's a GAF game.

 

[Mothman91]

Does anyone remember a hero concept where the hero used a paint brush as a weapon? Wanted to show a friend that, can anyone link if they find it?

edit: I think the author was someone who already sketched one of the Annie skins. Had some hero concepts where LoL used.

 

[Blizzard]

Lucky day: Play solo ranked game, try to jungle pantheon, get 2-3 PVP server errors that prevent you from picking a champion, end up random'd to fiddlesticks. Win anyway! (thankfully my team was good and their team was bad)

 

[Ferga]

Lulu looks like she can be a support since xypherous is making her. She doesn't really look like an ap mid, top, jungler or ranged ad anyway

 

[Complex Shadow]

just keep playing blind until gaffers who arn't afk show up.

 

[Ken]

What does playing blind mean?

 

[Complex Shadow]

What does playing blind mean?

Blind pick games. Basicly just keep playing regular games until gaffers show up. Most gaffers are level 30 (which is the cap), well the ones I've seen. So it's good to build up exp while you wait.

 

[Photosynthesis]

I've been taking a break from LoL, but if the yordle is a support, then I'll start playing again on Tuesday at the very latest. Waiting for so long.

It's a suppordle according to riot.

Some interesting information about the new champion: http://clgaming.net/redtracker/30827-xypherous-what-type-of-cc-is-polymorph

 

[Sardello]

Can someone tell me what "The Fae Sorceress" means?

What is "Fae"?

http://www.mythicalcreaturesguide.com/page/Fae

In popular culture the fey, if recognized at all, have been reduced to small, winged, humanoid, female creatures who are frequently portrayed in the nude.

Yordle boobs \ö/

 

[Ferga]

Ergh... so many heroes I want! Urgot, olaf, maokai and that new yordle support

I'm glad to see this topic is gaining more attention. I only hope that Riot will respond to it soon.

 

[red13th]

YES she's really a support, and she's a yordle. Day 1 purchase. Shyvana will have to wait, unfortunately.
And she's the first female yordle since goddamn Poppy.

I waited until I was on a streak lol. I was too ashamed to post my 6-game losing streak before this. ;[

BTW, congrats on the school thingy!

Played Shen last night, what items should I go for?
Mecrury Treads, HoG, then should I rush for Sunfire Cape, Wits End, or Warmogs?

 

[Schmattakopf]

Mecrury Treads, HoG, then should I rush for Sunfire Cape, Wits End, or Warmogs?

Merc Treads, Sunfire Cape, Rylai's, Abyssal. HoG's not really required unless you're not doing well.

 

[bjaelke]

I usually get the Heart of Gold instead of Sunfire Cape and then upgrade it later on to Randiun's Omen.

So Xypherous answered a bunch of questions about Lulu.

http://clgaming.net/redtracker/30827-xypherous-what-type-of-cc-is-polymorph

Basically she doesnt have a sheepstick its more like a stun/silence type thing. It shrinks the opponent and makes it to where they cannot attack at all but have free movement albeit slowed.

 

[XeroSauce]

Doesn't that mean that she's like Link in the way that she has her own Fae, not that she is a Fae herself?

After reading that thread, I think I learned something. Sheepstick is like fear in that it disables player control?

I remember being able to control my movement even when morphed. I also remember being unable to attack, cast spells, and having my armor drastically reduced.

Edit: If I'm not mistaken, Fae also means dark, unknown, and mysterious.

 

[Volimar]

Thanks!

You can run and use summoner spells, but you can't attack or use abilities.

 

[Inskipp]

No, it's more like silence + cosmetic slow. Player control is not disabled.

 

[SouthernDragon]

I meant Sheepstick in DotA, not Polymorph in LoL.

 

[Boken]

Thanks!

Yes you can still control your movement when sheepsticked - but you move very very slowly. It doesn't reduce your armor afaik.

 

[dimb]

They're the same.

 

[Inskipp]

I was talking about the sheepstick.

What made you assume I was talking about Polymorph?

You used the same phrasing and word choice as Xenopherous.

Good to know I'm not crazy. Thanks!

 

[Erasus]

nah i have morgana for that.

Yup, just have 1 champ for each role, thats great (Nope)

More Legacy skins going. I'll probably pick up Workshop Shaco.

Safari Caitlyn what are you doing on this list?

 

[Tomat]

So Riot retiring skins is nothing more than another money grab right? What reason do they have for getting rid of skins?

 

[JesseZao]

Stir up sales for the least bought skins. Then they can have special limited time only sales to bring them back to generate more sales.
