It's my first Tales game, but it's a 10/10 for me so far anyway.
Better combat than Vesperia, and I like the world more. The story is on par, and I really like the characters. There are no bad characters. The protagonist is very likeable, but he's no Yuri. However, he changes way more than the always static Yuri. The mascot of this game (the creature that joins your party) is very love-him-or-hate-him, but I love him. I laughed out loud at some of his lines, which I almost never do in games.
So, League of Legends, pretty good game.
I haven't played since ToX.
1-1 in a promo.
First game was just a disaster. Second I played OP Yi. I didn't even do well with him and the WHOLE team had escapes and/or CC. Fizz, Jax, Vayne, Nami, Nidalee.
Went with Oddone's build.
botrk, statikk shiv, then tanky item (in this case Banshee's) then IE. Threw in a giant's belt for good measure since I was getting focused. Worked out well. Less damage than I expected but got crits and resets against their squishy team.
Oh man. Pressure's on next game. Promo win or lose? I should play Sona.

Holy shit, I need that card. That's awesome. Free riot points for buying useful things!
I really need to buy Caitlyn. She's so incredibly easy to play as, just went like 9/0/6 as her and I never play ADC.

I'm guessing you are referring to current PBE changes?
no i am posting about dota.
Pressure the ADC since Yorick provides no "support" until 6. Jungler help is always good. Also, pink the lane bush so you can hide from ghouls and they end up pushing lane.
Pancakes
hot, steaming, as melted butter slips into the cracks, drizzled with sticky sweet syrup OH GOD
Nerf Wisp pls.
How does pinking a bush help when Yorick can gain vision on them with W?
Why be snarky? If you have a source, why not share it? I'm guessing maybe you mean this page?
http://www.reignofgaming.net/news/25385-unofficial-pbe-changes-for-8-12-dominion-riot
If so, the text does say that the item changes might not be for Summoner's Rift, so perhaps these changes are not yet 100% certain?

Unless you're both sitting in the bush that's not going to be a problem. He can't keep vision with a ward is all so you can dodge ghouls. You just shuffle and hope you have a longer range ADC like Cait.
It's a joke. Patch notes are in the same place all the time. Too lazy to link. Phage is obviously not going to be two different items depending on the map. Rito already said they don't like Phage and want to change it.
they are going have to do huge a melee triage one day. i know they want items to be as simple as possible, but melee/ranged is a world of difference and some items just gotta account for that
giving ranged even more MS everytime they hit and kite you will just be nightmare fuel
phage/TF has different% slows for melee/ranged - at least give melee more MS bonus from the new phage/TF

It was a disastrous game beyond measure. Let just say I couldn't get any help from the jungler and my carry stayed way behind at all times. I tried to pressure their adc but in the process I ate everything Yorick would throw at me and, well, he has some nasty range with those ghosts. (Not to mention the slow and everything else that comes with them)

A reminder that this week there will be a superweek (20 games per region).
- 1st-2nd will get byes to the semi finals in the world championship playoffs and will basically have to win only one match to make it to the world championships. 3rd-6th must playoff for a semifinal position.
In NA, Cloud 9 are a lock for 1st seed, 2nd seed is strongly in Vulcun's hands, unless they do absolutely abysmally. CLG, Curse, TSM, dig, Coast Vel will have to fight stay in the top 6, with two of them just going home.
In EU, everything is up for grabs - anybody can hit from 1-6, and it will be a mad grab for wins this week.
World Championship Run-up
The playoffs around the world will showcase the best teams in their regions, and letting you familiarise yourself with eventual World Championship participants.
Playoffs
World Championships
Riot are going for the slow burn style with the World Championships, giving the teams time between brackets to prepare.
World Championship ticket prices will come out tmrw, with tickets on sale on the 15th of August.

i am a man what did you expect
you should just go ask her out dude. add her on facebook or something.
as a friend, of course. dont be creepy. but yeah, shes cute.
a note to all - the venue for the group stages have still not been decided, and will possibly be at a smallish location. Tickets for group stages will sell out FAST
Galen Centre (quarters+semis) will probably have ~7000 tickets and Staples (finals), ~11000

I'm jelly you guys get to go to the world championships.
I got to go to my first and only live match on stage and it felt gud. Watching via streams doesn't compare.

I don't get why people think it is a good idea dive at level one. Why people push like crazy and don't ward at top. Don't get why people think it is a good idea to fight 1v1 even when the other person is 2 level higher. Don't get why people would go initiate a fight even though they are a Quinn.
Did I mention it's the same person.

No new passive shield or ult silence, so probably in 975 tier. Decent skin.

I can't wait for the Wildcard Tournament, a shame it will be 1 am here when it begins.

Also these skins are great. But, didn't Blitz JUST get a skin

Reminds me a lot of Inferno from Robot Unicorn Attack 2.
i don't really see the relevance of your picture. these skins are pretty bad all around. i don't even understand how or why this blitz skin exists. completely uninteresting and pointless. hecarim's is beyond terrible. like, why do i associate myself with this game terrible. it's some dumb and completely outdated meme that wouldn't have been funny even when it was relevant. i don't really feel like i mind light hearted joke skins, but to have one that's so over the top for a character like hecarim is really just jarring and off-putting.
the janna skin is not particularly well done. the animations are weird and try to do to much while fitting into these very small time frames, and the skin just does not look like janna at all. it's really weird and bad.
if i look back on this year for skins it is one clunker after another. woad king. ghost bride. blackfrost anivia. bloodstone liss. justicar aatrox. special weapon zac. gladiator draven. debonair jayce. runeguard voli. even sgu was pretty terrible.

At least half of those skins you mentioned are fantastic.
I just played Forecast Janna and it's absolutely brilliant. All the animations are awesome, as are the spell effects. Her joke, taunt and dance are brilliant. Here's a video.
The Blitz skin is nothing special, but it's customary for them to have a new Riot skin every year for PAX.
And Arcade Hecarim is brilliant imo. All the spell effects, the recall animation etc.
I don't know what you want from them.
