Nah.
Spirit Visage will be strong still. The nerf to Sunfire Cape means nothing because it's always been a joke.
Trundle's main problem for top lane isn't that he can't compete in 1 vs 1 laning; very few melee's outright best him in a duel and his overall sustain is one of the highest. Strong utility scaling and tower pushing potential too the longer a match drags on. It's ranged champions that severely screw him over when he's picked early, since he can't do anything against anti-melee picks like Karma or Quinn, never mind when he's facing a 2 vs 1 lane (even if they're rare in solo queue).
Most of the champions you play with are fine. Graves is kinda weak right now and Quinn is maybe being the only other exception here; she's not bad (some here will say otherwise) but she has a more difficult time to get going in 2 vs 2 lanes as opposed to facing a common top laner. Shouldn't really matter in Bronze - Silver level games though since mistakes are plentiful, so with experience you can make her work if you punish / trade well. You could possibly stand to learn a different ADC to replace Graves if you're looking to fill the 'upfront damage' niche (Lucian and Sivir come to mind), since Cait is more about whittling the enemy down by abusing your ranged poke to snowball with tower pushing or have total lane control every time an ADC like Vayne attempts to last-hit a creep.
mages have scaling spell damage. some abilities scale better with ability power than others. lissandra actually has below average scaling with ability power, which means she has higher gains from spell penetration.
((lol, nerfs. They had to roll them back because they made him stronger. You can't keep Kassadin down
It's an abbreviation for Dance In My Blood. I think that was the old name they used, or "soda cop" in the GAF channel.
You don't need to get your carry fed or be a wanna be midlaner to carry as a support. I don't get why people don't understand this yet.
She's actually one of my favored match-ups given how much experience I have against her with my main champions, no thanks to some of the Diamond-level players I've faced. Some who mained her included. I purposefully leave her open to go after her (much like Zed or Fizz back at the height of their popularity) if I'm the captain and even on a lesser day she's not too troublesome for me given how much of a routine the match-up has become. You'd also be surprised how many aren't any good at trading at all (even with high elo ranks) once you get past the "omg it's Riven" self-mindfuck.
Personally I feel it's a little weird that an "artillery" champion as Riot describes him with such range has that long of a cooldown on his ultimate with that few charges. I also hope they left that visual effect for his temporary increased vision intact when he transitions into his ult stance; it looked cool when I tried on PBE a few months but Xelnath viewed it as unnecessary power he didn't need due to his allies also gaining said vision after testing wrapped up.
Darius is rough for a lot of melee champions. Not even Riven can't outtrade him in raw damage. Very vulnerable to mobility or range however, and it gets even worse if the jungler camps him.
It's never been great on Shyvanna. You have two better options for splitpushing (much better ones) never mind the superior defensive items available in the shop.
Shyvanna is tanky, but something's horribly wrong in your games if people literally let her run up to a carry on top of said carries being oblivious to their immediate surroundings.
Yeah, not saying it wasn't a sad state of affairs from the sounds of it. Just assumed that Lee didn't really get any help from anyone or that Darius froze the lane to some extent given his innate vulnerabilities after a lead.
I'll always feel Mundo is worse than Shyvana. Its like he can't even be dealt with at times.
Yeah, that ultimate of his can be a bitch at times. A good way to try to mitigate him is to push him into tower.
