in 1v2 lane (top lane usually in low level) the goal is to stay alive, farm safely by tower, and get a level advantage. You should be 1-2 level higher than the opposing team if you play it safe. A gank from your jungler should always kill them because of the higher level and since they're going to be near your tower their path to escape will be poor. In these type of games, pick champs that have a lot of mobility.
on the flipside, if you are 2v1 a lane. Do not ever push your lane; just last hit minions and bully the solo champ. main goal will be to zone the champ out of the experience range.

Just played a pretty interesting Riven game. It was kind of a stomp, but it let me try out cool things like this.

Yeah I was kinda surprised he didn't just try to stun me. Although I doubt he would have caught me, since I was immediately backing away from tower range.
I don't know the HP values, but I suspect you could have ulted him first, and if that didn't kill, THEN flashed and stunned.
I guess he might have flashed away though.SouthernDragon

But then it wouldn't look as cool.

If I'd have procced my ulti first, it would have instantly given my intentions away, and he would have back further back into his tower, forcing me to expose myself longer under tower fire.I don't know the HP values, but I suspect you could have ulted him first, and if that didn't kill, THEN flashed and stunned.
Also this.

Definitely could have, before the level up though.
Infinity Edge/Bloothrister/Phantom Dancer are considered MUSTs on AD carries. What else could be considered?
Would Black Cleaver on an AD Carry be beneficial for a team with lots of AD, so that they all do more damage as opposed to just the carry getting Last Whisper?
Last whisper is better than cleaver almost always. Very little times it's not.
A GA on a carry is always helpful, my favorite defensive item when running carry.
Sounds pretty trolly. Counter-jungling in general is pretty big now though as opposed to a few months ago.

Nah dude, QSS is the only defensive item you need for AD carries.
PD, QSS, PD, BT, IE, LW.
That should be the final build for a hyper carry.
leblanc without a single kill is the funniest shit ever.
Meh I'll disagree. QSS if they have a hardcore CC. I've had quite a few times GA passive thrown the fight in our favor.

Just had another epic game with tristana
17/4/3
our team was being out killed but the map was pretty even. They had taken out 2 of our inhibitors the three base towers while we had taken out 1 inhibitor and one tower next to the nexus.
The other team had just scored an ACE and they were pushing hard into our base. I decided what the heck. 3 team mates were busy defending so i said what the hell and went for it.
Sneak attack into their base and took out a second inhibitor from behind a tower Quickly jumped to top lane to help a nearby Team make push top all the way down to the tower which was quickly taken out.
I could now see 3-4 red circles in my own base so i knew i was pressed for time. I jumped down to the turret with my teammate (tryndamere) before our minions got there and started attacking... i hit my 'Q' and the tower died almost simultaenously taking out tryn.
I was surrounded by creeps and elite creeps... But i knew what had to be done... I Started attacking the nexus... i got down to like half and I jumped to the other side of the nexus and continued the assult. an elite ran up to me... and I used my ult to knock him back ... at the same time I saw that heimerdinger was racing down the steps to attack me. RIGHT THEN my Q came back online and i punched it and brought the nexus down Solo dolo... EPIC moment. I wish i had a replay.

Fun game with ferrio and flare. Haven't play SR (other than the game yesterday with kiunch and summon) for a while.

0/10 LeBlanc?? Wow. She should have eaten Cassio for breakfast. That's hilarious.
Last night there was a Lux vs Malzahar mid lane in my ranked game. 20+ minutes into the game, I think they both were 0/0/0 with 170-180 farm. Ultimate farm fest! Fortunately our top lane was dominating and our bottom lane (pantheon + leona) was doing well enough. It took forever to kill Malzahar even once teamfights started, but we won eventually.
Decided to branch out last night and try a few new champions. Jungle Kayle, AD Kayle, Ryze. Wasn't too bad. I like jungle Kayle except for her really slow start. I probably need to try different masteries. I used my Nocturne build (9/21/0) and boots and she got abused in the beginning (didn't help that my request for a leash went ignored). I think if I go 21/9/0 with cloth armor it'll be much better. I got so far behind I was ganking a level 7 top at level 4. Still did it, her ganks are awesome with the slow, movement speed buff and ranged melee.
AD Kayle just abused the poor duo bot. I was with Alistar and we zoned or killed the opponents every time they got close. The low level ranged magic damage Kayle does is really strong if the opponent doesn't take MR runes.
Ryze is just Ryze. Strong. I didn't even do exceptionally well with him and I was still contributing quite a bit in teamfights. I was the assist king for the first 15 minutes.
With Graves on sale I'll grab him today, I enjoyed him last free week. Next up is Ezreal. I love champs with high mobility - Kassadin, LeBlanc, Ezreal.

Perfect ranked game. Fuck. Yeah.
Kinda unfair though, since everyone had CC to shut down Kat which explains her score.
Getting better with my deaths in general. I usually get 2-3 deaths unless the enemy is steamrolling us.
Losing against a team with an Alistar some time ago made me realize how darn useful an early Oracle is. In this match, we were pretty even until I got an oracle and warded a lot of places. Thankfully, teammates also warded. I removed their wards so we started to gank much more. By the 20 min mark we started to pull ahead with kills, and we pretty much controlled their jungle by that time.

Right, but I made the call that I should go top vs irelia, and talon vs leblanc. I got a very quick FB on irelia. They tried switching lanes several times which we followed, I was off on a 6/0/# start. Eventually they decided to duo lane top, and have their jungler mid.
We almost dropped the ball though.
dave is ok
aztek is ok
I prefer 21/9/0 on Jungle Noct
Good call. Talon is actually pretty tough to lane against as LeBlanc. Explains the ninja tabi (her build was still not good at all which surely contributed to her downfall).
I've tried both. I've settled on 9/21/0 for Nocturne. The early survivability in jungle means I have more hp to gank. I use AD runes which give me enough damage and building him like a bruiser makes me a better initiator for teamfights later on. More of a personal preference thing though. I didn't like 9/21/0 on Kayle at all though lol.
Get your hands off my Kayle! Been seeing alot more Kayles lately though and Mundos.

So I thought they were going to add a demon champion instead of just a skin for galio.

Same items as any other support.
Hrm.. doesn't that kinda defeat the purpose of his ult?

Ult does well without items, has good utility.
@ Rayven, did you change the color of the lock in scene during character selection? kinda hard to tell between lock and unlock
it's really hard to pull off his ult

Can you confirm if the sorting for normal draft has been fixed to no longer give priority to premades? Maybe last two days I've actually been getting 3rd pick and even got 1st pick once. Before these two days I was usually 5th pick with the rare occasion of being 4th pick. Either way, it seems to be working better nowadays.

Oh shiiiiit, I want this skin so bad now
New particles on every single skill. Why aren't all skins like this!
That sounds like it would be great on nearly all AP mid champions, giving magic resist to counter the enemy AP mid, plus mana, plus CDR etc.
What is the connection with the dragon drinking chocolate milk though?
Wow. Please don't be Legendary.
