Was watching that AP tryn's stream last night. I rarely watch LoL streamers, but I really liked this guys personality. Very relaxed, and watching him wreck shit with AP tryn was funny. Especially always loved seeing his team's response to his pick.

Did he have to do the "look my record up on lolking" thing, or did people just let him play it instead of dodging?

some1 put rex on suicide watch

o wait im australian

ok calling da copz

You and Rex have the coolest accents on Mumble. Actually to make stereotypes, I've usually had positive experiences with people from Australia and New Zealand in multiplayer games. They tend to have cool accents and (aside from Rex who has been destroyed by ranked games?) are pretty relaxed about stuff. I had a fun release Borderlands multiplayer session with such people, randomly matched up with them.

 

[IsayFever]

Quinn looks way different than I thought she would

 

[zkylon]

So she's the missing Silver Hawk. Looks pretty cool, not sure if waifu material

Take my money anyway Riot.

.

Seems a few people knew he was.

Someone was like "Why AP Tryn" and someone's response "It's just what he does".

Pretty much relies on backdooring all day and causing the enemy team to divide their attention.

 

[Volimar]

Riot friggen LOVES birds.

I blame Ironstylus

If she's the famed APC then I'm gonna go nuts over her.

Who doesn't love birds? Birds are awesome

 

[Ferrio]

Is she noxian? Looks like one of riven's alts. They're going to remove the helmet, looks too much like rivens! Or they'll remove rivens...

 

[zkylon]

She's demacian.

The helmet reminds me a bit of Ryu Hayabusa's.

You know, some weird metal thingie stuck in his head for no apparent reason.

ADC, you mean? I think the next AP planned was an Ice Mage.

No, I mean autoattack carry that builds AP. APC sounded cool so that's my name for it

I hate all of these champions and like all of these changes.

 

[scy]

So Kayle nerf seems relatively minor (lost MR/level, Q slows more at later levels but for shorter duration). We'll see how the loss of the Damage Taken debuff goes though ;_;

That Nidalee nerf. Was that really necessary?

Spoiler

Yes, now I don't have to learn her

 

[Jazzy Network]

Those Nidalee nerfs.

 

[zkylon]

The Vi nerfs seem kinda tame. I can't believe they'll stop there.

 

[Q8D3vil]

Riot once again don't know how to balance their game.
They should just remake their champions instead of nerfing them to unplayable state.

 

[Diprosalic]

i'm so in quinn.


buy her thrice and every skin.

 

[dimb]

The design of the champions is fine, in these situations its just a case of the numbers being off. Cooldowns may be too low, base damages too high, or free stats too rampant. These are all really good changes that target a set of champions who are showing up far too frequently.

 

[scy]

The closest to an over nerf is Nidalee losing a lot of free stats. But, then again, I don't think she was meant to be a "build HP, free tank" character to begin with so it's more a case of "Never rebalanced for Season 3 changes" to be honest.

 

[Hauk]

Quinn looks awesome! Like dangerous and awesome, not just sexy and weird doing all the things in SO-HAWT-OMG outfits like all other females in LoL. Though I imagine they will release sexy outfits for Quinn too if she proves popular enough. Interesting to see what the raven/bird brings to the skill-set. I guess I'll have to buy her with the RP I got atm instead of waiting for IP to accumulate :3

Release skin TITS OR GTFO

She's designed visually by IronStylus who is opposed to the whole sexy female thing. He's responsible for Leona and Diana's visual themes as well.


I still prefer the original Diana design. Moon Knight all the way

 

[zkylon]

While I like that design better than the conehead hairdo the current Diana has, she kinda looks too much like Fiora to my liking.

They turned that into Fiora

Well, October 2011 actually predates Fiora's release (Feb 2012).

Edit: Or what bind said. That too.

 

[zkylon]

Yeah I was just looking for an excuse to share that I can't unsee Diana's conehead hair now.

 

[scy]

Now you know why I use her skin.

 

[zkylon]

Now you know why I use her skin.

The cleavage is just bonus

 

[kayos90]

I want a female Japanese samurai. Or shogun. Lol. Sounds cool. Make it happen riot!

 

[IsayFever]

Fiora is such a throwaway character. Designed from the scraps of other kits and art designs

edit - Fuck yeah, Dan Dinh and WingsofDeath back on TSM. Subs stronger than main team lulululu

 

[Volimar]

As long as she keeps the same jokes, I don't care what she looks like.

 

[Ken]

Well timed Xin nerfs after everyone buys his Lunar Revel skin.

 

[zkylon]

New pings radial menu is NUTS!

Not really, but it's pretty cool

 

[Terbinator]

Elise is so unblanaced its embarrassing.

 

[dimb]

Elise is so unblanaced its embarrassing.

Come on.

 

[Ferrio]

Outside of laning phase I don't know why you'd think she's anything special.

 

[Terbinator]

Outside of laning phase I don't know why you'd think she's anything special.

The jump is so bloody useful to get in and out of situations. Add to that her sort of tanky stats and she's a nightmare.

You mention the laning phase, but she more often than not wins here lane. I've yet to see an Elise lose one anyway.

Yorick wins his lanes lots too, doesn't mean he controls the game.

 

[scy]

I don't think an Elise will hard carry a game (barring getting so fed that she shuts down top and their jungler or something) but she will do a fairly good job of shutting down their hard carry.

 

[dimb]

Yorick wins his lanes lots too...

What year is this...

 

[Blizzard]

If I recall correctly scy46 used to practically always win top lane with Elise, so I wouldn't be surprised. It's a good thing she isn't more overpowering after that or it would be very unpleasant. As it is, I'd probably rather see an Elise than a Kha'zix.

 

[Ferrio]

What year is this...

Okay maybe I should of used past tense. Point being, you can be a big bully in lane and still not be OP.

 

[Terbinator]

Tell me more when Yorick can jump out of everyones ult. Christ, the jump even avoids Karthus' ult.

I know other champs can do this too, but it isn't as egregious.

It's not like spell immunity is something new. It's annoying.. yes... unbalanced no.

Fizz can do that too though.

 

[Terbinator]

Fizz can do that too though.

That's who i had in mind, but you can still follow her and see where she's going. Elise's range and unpredictability is what annoys.

18 second cooldown before reductions means it gets absolutely abused.
