Be careful with doing this, since Riot has a habit of nerfing or changing champions, so if you fall in love with a certain champion or a certain play style, you may find it gone forever, like old Katarina or old Eve. In most cases the playstyle will presumably remain and may just become ineffective, but just be careful not to get too addicted in case Riot decides whatever you like is OP.
Dont listen to this. Riot rarely changes playstyles, but they do change power pretty often though.
And I think it wouldve been best if OT3 coincided with season 3, at least the OT could be updated.
Maybe kick off OT3 with the world championships or something.
You would advise people fall in love with something? You just want BROKEN HEARTS, Boken.
I didn't even realize it was time for OT3. When does season 3 start?
No thread for weeks?

Past the threshold!!!

I'm wondering this too but it won't start right away. They tend to play around with things and the like before a season gets in full swing. I hope seasons 3 has big changes like S2.
Here are some gaf games I did today including my first vollibear win.

Seasons... kinda like ladder resets in Diablo 2 and Starcraft.
S2 brought changes like new mastery tree and dodge removal. Meta was also different back then, where ADC went mid. Roam Alistar was still common that sorta died in the first half on S2 then went back again after M5vDig.

I'm fine wih them keeping rune pages paid... 2 is enough if you have the patience for it. I think the reason they won't do it is more because of the money they earn with RP due to people spending their IP mainly on runes.
Guys, I've been in the jungle lately because almost every time no one wants to play jungle.
I tried Nunu a lot and to me, he's easily the best jungler I tried so far. You can stay in the jungle as long as you want with his Q and adding some AP for gank.
I wanted to know if you have some advice for other junglers, I tried Maokai and Mundo but I think they need to go to base too often and I can't gank much with them.
I'm just beginning as jungler so if you have some advice to master jungle and some jungler, it'll be with pleasure.

Maokai is actually a very potent jungle, very fast clears with the initial blue, and passive offers decent sustain. His ganks are also extremey effective due to the ranged root + knockback slow combo.
If you're struggling to stay healthy, it sounds like you're not utilizing your passive early on.

Hey, does anyone know how to check the wall of shame? (list of posters and how many posts they made in the thread).
I would like to know before it gets locked away forever in the GAF vaults.

First time I rank so high on a wall of shame :O
With Maokai, it's not really about being healthy but the real problem is his mana. The saplings consume lots of mana especially early game.
I need to try more because I really like his gameplay but I don't feel really confident playing him.

Thanks, but can you tell me how you did it for future reference?
I don't see an option for it anywhere.
I honestly expected that I would rank higher. Oh well, there's always OT3.

Wow...
4th? Clearly, my self-rage that made me self-exile cost me some posts.
And I had Mudkipz (Summoner name) help me out with graphics. I wrote the OT Text.
Really, if anyone is going to make the next OT (should I?), I'd recommend just changing the champion portraits to link to the LoL webpage for that champion. It'd be a shame for all that good art to go to waste!
Bye bye thread. I hardly knew thee.
After a long weekend with no gaming, I'm ready to get back into it and continue my placement matches. I'm 3-0 now but that won't hold up. I kind of like the placement matches though. Everyone's so nervous and excited to be playing ranked and are really try hard. Been some good games.

...I made the top 10? I've only been here for like three months. T.T

I tried the suggested build of bankplank (philo+avarice) to critplank.
Kat was wrecking face, but other teammates are just WTF? We were well ahead with the push and not so ahead with score. We were gonna siege the inhib but decided to back and push bot. Xin decides to take enemy blue so he got raped then immediately called for vote. I voted no and we got 3/2? REALLY? It was probably just me and Kat who voted No?
Another WTF moment includes Volibear trying to push afterwards that. I kept spamming retreat because it was a 4v5 but no. I tried to help him escape with my ult but he died (after quite a while). Seriously it's like they suddenly went troll mode.
Enemy pushes because it was now a 3v5. Kat hides in our jungle and calls for my ult, but I told her I just spent it. Malphites initiates and hits Vayne and the enemies all dive in. I managed to exhaust Ezreal and critted Ahri to death. Kat pops in and scores a quadra then we push to victory.
Seriously though, wtf at Xin's build even if he has 400 wins.

Top 32, what's up.
The true ELO ranking!
It is genuinely confusing to see your team have no real support or jungler. You probably should have grabbed a Heart of Gold too to really go hard on Bankplank. For your boots don't go Ionian. Go Merc Treads or Ninja Tabi depending on enemy team comp. In that game Merc Treads would have really proved beneficial.

Shall I do it?
I'll admit, I'd just be transplanting the current OT over in large part, unless someone else wants to snazz it up even further!

The only improvement I could suggest over the current OT is a list of regular LoL GAF and their corresponding summoner name.
That Volibear game was ridiculous. Just wish top went better than 2-0 on them during lane (well, 1 on Riven, 1 on J4).
That Lee Sin game though :| Second game with him. Landing dem Q's
and then dumbly Qing after them hohohoho
I would be willing to compile a list of more up to date and quality guides for you.
No I think the OT needs to be reworked to be more beginner friendly. The world championships are soon and thatd bring in a few new players.
New players in the thread are often asking for tips. So perhaps the current OT is a bit lacking.
I like ziggs because hes funny
and also reserve a post for season 3 information

What exactly did you have in mind? Maybe something laying out the meta more clearly?

It's important to note that other than, "Buy Wards" and "Find a build other than the Recommended Items", the best information on league is a moving target.
If you're looking to have an OP that's useful in the way you imply, someone's going to have to step up to the plate and take on the responsibility of keeping it up to date, adding new champions, guides, ect.
Not a simple task.
