I think people really overvalue the evolution on this Q and R while not understanding how important his Evolved Spike Rack can be. You are essentially looking at the opportunity to triple the damage on your W, but more importantly you can proc your passive not only from a distance, but on multiple enemies.

I thought evolving W would end up being the most useless skill on Kha'Zix, but it ended up being the one I liked best.
I saw earlier today on the League forums that it was changed from 13 to 16. It was posted by a red in a topic about the new jungle.

My Jungle Kayle seems just as good/better than before, so I'm not too bothered about the machete force. The lower creep gold means that laners won't be so much more powerful than junglers.
In any case I foresee an assassin roaming meta: moving between lanes without boots is a lot easier, increase in damage items and penetration means kills will be easier, less creep gold means less punishment for missing creeps while getting kills/roaming.

Jungle and Lane minions were lowered slightly. Passive Gold went from 13 GP10 to 16 GP10. Jungle does grow gold wise +50% over before, however.
Basically, despite the fact that they give less per kill, it almost comes out to the same per minute. Jungle ramps up faster now than before so come third or fourth clear, it'll start pulling ahead of what current live jungle is worth.
Basic calculations would put it that Jungle will become the best source of gold eventually (around mid game, I think). Not sure if it'll be worth it to send a Carry through the jungle instead but ... yeah.
Basically, they slowed down the Jungle for early clears to take away the inherent advantage of some of the top Junglers (e.g., most Junglers with Machete clear faster than the good junglers now without Machete) and made the mid-to-late game Jungle worth more. This means the junglers who come into power later in the game are better off than some of the early ones. Still some exceptions like Lee Sin and Shaco doing low level ganks but ... yeah.
Top tier items are cheaper total but less efficient cost wise, I believe, outside of some raw stats (e.g., AD/AP). There's exceptions like some of the Machete upgrades are stupid efficient.

Assassin rely on early game advantage of snowballing, making item cheaper and toning down snowball will just make them become irrelevant sooner. If we don't take into account all defense nerf, and penetration buff.
Trying to keep track of all the masteries/glyph/item changes is a bit overwhelming considering I like some of the "weirder" characters build-wise (Fizz/Zyra/Galio) and still consider myself pretty newbish. I am debating just stockpiling a ton of IP and then waiting for the dust to clear to see what I need to buy. I'm excited though.
never though of it this way. when i should evolve it and instead of what other evolution ?
I usually take it first. If you're jungling I'm not sure if it would still be best that way but I'd think so. Right now my evolution order is usually Spikes-Wings-Ultimate. If it makes more sense to take the claws because of lots of high HP enemies I take that instead of the ultimate upgrade.

Not sure if my experimental Kog was doing well.
- Furor Berserker Boots
- Hurricane
- Malady
- Rabadon
Magic damage alone, I was hitting 3 champs for 200 each at 2.00 ASPD.
Not having sustain sucks, but Furor helps kiting so much. For my other two items I was thinking of getting Void then Zhonya. I should end up with 406AP, so W hits for 10% HP while Malady hits for 55.
I think Liandry's torment doesn't work with Kog's W. Shame.

I just had a Zed in a ranked game. It immediately became hard mode, since he fed the top lane 5 kills or so very early. Eventually we discovered Zed's true calling, backdooring while everyone ignored him, so he got some towers and tried to solo baron and eventually we won.
Nice Zed game but why weren't you so successful in the four Zed games before that? Did you change tactics, or get a worse opponent? AcridMeat apparently also has success as Zed so I must learn everyone's secrets.
For me lately, the games that aren't hard mode are losses, but the games that are hard mode (our Alistar says to report him at like level 10 and disconnects) end up being victories (other team surrendered 5v4). It's kind of funny.
-Bush ganks.
-Treat your sapling as a 30 sec ward to prevent counter jungle.
-Always initiate on high target in team fights since you can disable them for good 3 seconds and put down your ultimate in the right place.
-Maokai is weak against counter ganks so try to prevent that.
Technically not league related but you can probably extrapolate: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s8wW0PRYw1U

Fucking really?
Only on Katarina
AP mids had the most diverse itemisation before this anyway.
new things:
liandrys mask
lich bane
dfg
Aww yeah all aboard the spike train.
i evolve E lvl 11 or 16. Evolving Q is a must since it will increase you 1v1 duel power.
my only problem with khazix is itemization, hope it get fixed in season 3.
Trying to decide which role to focus on in S3.. I've bene playing ADC/Support, but want a change. Also, I hate support for soloq because I keep getting stuck with clueless ADCs and I can't carry if my team is bad. Also, you go completely unappreciated the vast majority of the time.
Thinking about jungle. Seems like with the new changes, it'll be fun and less boring (used to play jungle, but it was boring unless I had a good game). I think the item changes/additions will make it much more dynamic and interesting, plus if I'm good at it, it can make a huge difference.

What even made her OP when gunblades used to stack?
I never really felt OP with gunblade Jax.
---
It just occured to me that PD is actually stronger because everyone gets a +25 MS. :/
Assume a typical ADC with 300MS.
Season 3 = 325 * 1.05 = 341
Season 2 = 300 * 1.12 = 336
They get even better kiting because of Furor.

Katarina "HURRR what's a skillshot? wats a resource?" can die in a fire of nerfs please.
akali does massive spell damage and gets passive spellvamp already
i dont understand what do you mean by boring, jungling is the most dynamic role and only you decide to be boring "farm farm farm" or aggressive.
