Too bad Zyra got nerfed already. Still going to try her out, as long as I don't end up in groups that insta-lock and yell "MID OR I FEED".

No, in 1700s, 9 out of 10 if you request for the position that you wanted, you will get it. People want you to play whatever your best at, and most of them can play more than one lane.

If there are more than 1 person fighting for the same lane, you can either back off, or whoever pick first will get the lane (higher elo is on top). Of course you can always convince them you really want the lane (I AM AWESOME JUNGLER!!! AND I ONLY HAVE ATTACK SPEED RUNEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!1111111), just make sure your performance back that up.

Tristana. Too easy for her to lose out early-to-mid game which really hurts her late game, especially with randoms. In the same sense, a bad Vayne.

Tristana is in an okay place right now. She has a pretty fair early game and laning phase and becomes the strongest carry late game. She could be better but she can still be a good pick.

No, that would make Nutty sad if I said that. I haven't played Twitch so I won't say, but I've seen good ones.

Nah twitch is trolly worth.

Dance he hasn't seen my twitch roll someone. Now that it's getting nasty the snowballs are getting fun.

Seriously twitch is so easy these days against a lot of types. VS graves so so but I prefer ashe or vayne for that.

Q get in place W+E kill em dead.

Here's the thing, even if Twitch was a less than desirable pick he brings unique stuff to the table with his stealth, dots, and AOE. What is Varus good for? There are better champions suited to poke. You could also find better candidates if you're looking at healing debuffs or percentage based damage. The same goes for crowd control, again, why pick Varus?

Well, yes, but I more meant while also factoring the player themselves. Tristana (and Vayne) are both really late game focused and them being bad in lane REALLY hurts.

Edit: Though I suppose factoring in bad players means that every champion would potentially be bad!

He has good range and his kit isn't bad, per se. The problem is a lot of what he brings isn't good enough to pick for it since, like you say, everything he does is done by someone better and you rarely are looking for that combination of stuff.

I still don't know why he doesn't just have magic damage that scales off AD rather than those AP ratios.

I think they had Hybrid Varus in mind when they were designing him. However, what happened in the end was that end result.

Right, which is why they should just suck it up and make him full AD :x

Or at least some AD ratios on his W/R.

I don't know that I would say Trist is bad in lane. There are certain points where she trades very well, and she has mobility up there with the holy trinity of Corki, Graves, and Ezreal. It can be scary taking her in to team fights mid game though because in some ways her kit is unreliable.

I could see him in a heavy CC team comp. Sona support, Mummy jungle, Ori/Zyra mid, Rumble top. A team where his ult could potentially root and damage every member of the enemy team. His CC would be the only reason to pick him, because outside of Ashe, hes the only AD with a strong CC.

First game as Jax! Unfortunately, my team was too heavy. If only I had a real weapon...

T.T Starting to trend down towards 1:1 W:L ratio for Dom (250-180).

Ah, I meant that her (and Vayne) doing poorly in their lane pre-late game will really cost them, not so much that they have bad laning phases. Though, I would say they have some relatively weaker low level lanes compared to the top picks.

At 1232 elo and cant seem too muster up the courage to try to make it to 1250. Winning 4 ranked games in a row can only mean a loss is coming :(

I feel like if I once again go into detail about why Varus is solid but misunderstood I am going to sound like a broken asshole record.

Instead, I'm just going to say one thing we can all agree on: Lux is adorable.

His biggest strength right now is that seemingly nobody knows that his Blight stacks are Magic damage, though maybe more people caught on since Jayce. I actually like Varus' playstyle.

Or that, I guess. I mean, he has an on-hit from his W.
