What was the nerf on the e?
Leveling up his E no longer brings down its cooldown so it's stuck at 16 seconds without CDR.

That will get 10k easily lol.
I've jungled with Diana several times before. Unless the enemy is very overextended, you have to rely on counterganks or lane ganks (laner pushes lane, you walk through side bush). Her lane gank is solid enough because of her pull along with the red buff you'd have. Once you get to 6 your ganks become lethal with red buff.Also, how about if you're jungling a champ with uninspiring mobility before 6 like a Diana? Or is the right answer to simply not jungle Diana in a match you'd actually like to win? I know most of the popular junglers have legit gap-closing abilities pre-6 (J4, Zac, Sej, Lee, Vi, Udyr, etc.)...but for those that don't....what do?
Is this for real? lmao
*takes notes*
Oh snap, I didn't know this. Thanks, guys. How do you guys handle situations where both lanes are pushed to the enemy towers and mid has some highly mobile champ there (say, a Fizz)? Sometimes I've found myself waiting in bushes expecting lanes to push back but feel like time would have been better spent farming the junk camps in the jungle.

I want to play Diana because she's technical like Lee Sin with the multiple dashes. But, I have no idea what I should do.

But if the opportunity doesn't really present itself just focus on getting to 6. Diana has pretty amazing jungle sustain + clear with just Spirit Stone. You can build her as a usual Diana, or more of a tanky initiator. I've done well with both build paths. If you're going with the usual Diana build you can leave Spirit Stone as is. It can be upgraded to Golem. Wraith is... eh. She has great sustain with her shield alone.
Makes sense.Depends on the jungler you're playing and your own mid, lots of possibilities. The important thing is to be decisive and stick to what you decided to do. A jungler's commodity is time, you only have a finite amount to influence the match.
Selecting a non-gap closing champion is rough because you're loading the CC and mobility requirement of ganking onto your laner. You can jungle Diana, but you need to be aware of your team's composition. For instance, running Diana jungle with Kat mid or Nid top is a really bad idea. The bigger issue with jungle Diana (I suspect, never actually tried it) is that her jungle itemization doesn't seem that great.
Huh, wow. That was certainly a short visit in NA.http://www.teamcurse.net/divisions/league-of-legends/team-curse
Edward not on the Curse site, seems like he's actually leaving.

It's foreign talent as long as it's better than the local "talent".Foreign "talent".
there are actually a fair number of teams with better support players in na even.It's foreign talent as long as it's better than the local "talent".

I see, which ones?
I don't want to imply that Edward is a super player, but rather that he is good even by NAs standards.
I was mentioning it earlier in Mumble but Edward didn't really seem like he made a huge impact here in NA during the split. Some plays were made, sure, but nothing over the top compared to some other support players. Just he got a lot more attention for them because it's Edward.
also, yordles pls
Lemonnation, Patoy, Xpecial, Bloodwater...I wouldn't say Edward is better than any of these players. His impact in games is low and he doesn't seem to gel well with teams.I see, which ones?
how can you hate yordles when you love lolis?I fucking hate yordles.

Not gelling well with the team isn't necessarily an indication of skill, though it definitely has an impact on performance. Otherwise I can't really agree with lemonnation as he was really underwhelming, especially with his choice of items in the games against fnatic. I haven't seen enough of the others to say whether they are clearly better or clearly worse, so it's certainly possible.Lemonnation, Patoy, Xpecial, Bloodwater...I wouldn't say Edward is better than any of these players.

I can't believe we forgot to mention Lemonnation's notebook for best support NA.
Lemonnation had bad games at worlds, along with the rest of C9. Doesn't make him a bad support compared to the rest of NA. His KDA is still crazy. Being able to work well with a team is part of being skilled at League.Not gelling well with the team isn't necessarily an indication of skill, though it definitely has an impact on performance.

But gosh darn if that picture next to the shark gun doesn't make her look like a qt3.14
Please be a short range burst mage with multiple stances depending on which gun she uses.
but your last avatar...I never said I love lolis. I hate lolis too.
I wouldn't really consider it strange to be honest. They said they were working on Lucian longer than most other champions, so Jinx might have been planned before they knew if they were going to even release Lucian. Then again, it might just be my bias for wanting an ADC that has impact.Seems strange if it would be another ADC. Just had one with Lucian. Probably a gun toting bruiser?
Even if he had a couple of bad games, his choice of item build only worsened the situation. I can't really see a bad game as an excuse for building like that.Everything about Jinx looks terrible.

Edward doesn't work great with any team though...Work well with a team, yes, but not necessarily with all teams. Let's say one support works great with team A but just works ok with team B, that doesn't mean that the support has to be just ok or has to be great.

Why not? We had double mages/assassins/bruisers in the past.Seems strange if it would be another ADC. Just had one with Lucian. Probably a gun toting bruiser?
A new ADC would be terrible for the game right now. Completely unnecessary with the amount of choice already there. Two of the last five champions were already ad carries. Riot has already shown they have no idea how to even design a champion for that role right now.I wouldn't really consider it strange to be honest.

He certainly worked way worse in NA at least.Edward doesn't work great with any team though...
Definitely, I agree.I think, end of the day, the point is that Edward isn't this "godtier above all of NA" that people were making it out to be when he came over. Like, he's pretty much about as good, arguably a little worse, than some of the supports over here anyway.
