ask ur jungler to gank him
eziest thing ever to gank
i thot i made a response RE: new gragas mid.
its just nope. its slightly below avg
but doable
lulu seems to do well against him.
New Gragas looks like fun. Gonna be a lot more focused on penetration, CDR, and survivability. Ratios aren't great anymore unless you count the delayed Q, and you're gonna want to get as much of that 12% through their MR as possible. What's body slams CD come down to with max CDR if you hit someone, like 4-5 seconds? Not bad on a 1s stun. Question would be rather to run grail or void staff first. Hope they take the channel off W though, that'd just be a total buzzkill having to root yourself like that in the frontline of teamfights or predict when you're going to need that damage reduction within the next 4 seconds without getting yourself killed waiting for a second for it to come into effect. It'll make for a fun combo going in though, chug barrel body slam auto pop barrel.

Am I the only one that likes the changes to boots enchantments? They look interesting.

Build magic resist? Like if you're playing zed build a hex drinker. It helps a lot if you can kill him over and over again in lane so he's using his ultimate to try kill you instead of using it to help his team's ganks.

OK thanks, yeah Hexdrinker was the item I was thinking about.
Ugh trying to balance my game time between getting playfire rewards and LoL is gonna be tricky today.
nah, they're cool, just not very exciting imo
the extended flash range was gonna be crazy, i'm kinda glad they didn't change it because it sounds like it'd break a lot of the game, but at the same time it left all the changes feeling like they added some random %ms to summoner spells for some rason

LeBlanc is about the hardest counter for Karthus you can come by. Her mobility allows her to avoid most of his damage, she has a guaranteed in-and-out to avoid getting stuck in the puddle of doom-guts after he dies, and she can dive deeply enough to punish him for camping under tower. She even has the potential to dive in and cancel his ultimate with a silence if he's not super careful about where he uses it.
As LeBlanc you should be able to put enough unanswered damage on Karthus that he can never really leave tower, and with a decent diving jungler you should be able to dive him even there to keep him from just safe-farming with skittles.
OGN in 5 minutes!

So the game I just played, the other team had a Jinx adc with teleport instead of flash. Against a blitz, vi (me), and gragas.
Thanks for the freelo I guess.

Eh, those Gragas damage nerfs don't seem too bad. He won't just pop people with his ult and be impossible to siege against, but he'll still hurt a lot.
His ult will still do a fuckton of damage. He can still hang mid I think.
Also Graves R turning into Trist R? Ouch

hes going to have a much tougher time mid
no damage reduction. so more harass taken
no bonus ad. so farming es harder
no free mana. so less barrell spamming cos being melee is hard
sure, he has 4% hp regen and still has his ranged barrells so he can still function, n is like a better version of mid sejuani
They're just changing it so the aoe does the same amount of damage as the initial hit of the ult right? Still pretty big tho.
i feel like i enjoy the game 10x nowadays when playing on my smurf. i mean they've gotten to the point everyone i end up playing is smurfing too but it's really fun because i do dumb things and everyone's like a bronze 5 smurf so they get really really mad when they get outplayed so it's pretty hilarious. like i don't even say anything but it's just funny to see a lee sin going in all caps THAT CHAMPION IS NOT BALANCEDDDD when talking about heimer lol
like in lane you'll prolly only have rank 1 w so that's a constant 10% dmg reduction you're missing. i dunno if the magic resist compensates for that but between that and the w still existing only being situational i don't see it being so bad
and he seems to have kept his crazy q waveclear so i don't think he'll do so bad
he's lost his e cheese tho, and lost range on q and lost mana regen, so imo i feel like all those things just make him a lot less scary to the point he won't be contested anymore in mid. he'll no doubt show up in jungle/top
mr per level tho

Strangely enough I have been playing better since a few weeks after I couldn't play quite as much as before.

She's pretty weak in lane at the moment imo. Try jungle her, you can likely do it without any runes since her clear when maxing w is pretty good.

The best thing about the Gragas rework is that he actually hits people with his gut during fatwalk
watching the inhouse vod's from last night, type's fixed camera perspective feels so strange to me.

pankaks bubbles udyr and secures a kill but only gets blamed because gamma died in lane.
support life is the rough life.
edit: neko bringing out his top quinn and wrecking face, nice.
edit2: type got a little tilted

88% win ratio with Varus before buying skin.
Lose every game since using skin.

Hmm, I wonder how good Zed jungle is in S4? He used to have the fastest clears in the game before they nerfed the CD on his E, maybe he can fit right in this assassin-based jungle meta?
Plus with the CDR blues changes, he could be really strong in 4.5

After yesterday, I need some strong carry-ish jungler in my pocket in case draft captains decide to be dicks and just ban every single top tier jungler but Lee, and fuck if I'm playing Lee.
What the hell am I supposed to do instead, play Sejuani?
Shyvana
Seriously though, I've carried with her a few times through the jungle doing the old saintvicious style jungling of just farming farming farming and coming out like a fucking bear out of a cave.

Fiddle.
werent you having good luck with eve?
Stone Ocean
Member
Luck is an understatement, I just tear Silver a new one with her lol
But I can't rely on her 100% of the time because she might get banned or picked. She's my absolute main right now, but I gotta have backup junglers - which in my case are Kha Zix, Elise, Panth, Monkey and Vi, but again, high chances of bans. I need something out of the LCS picks as a plan B.

Dude its the worst feeling when you play someone like thresh or lee after you haven't for a while. That thresh performance def put me on tilt for about 2 1/2 games.
Brought it back with the eve game. The wukong game upset me because of team picks and lack of a sightstone.
Also did we blame pankaks? I thought i was pretty impressed with bot during the game.
maybe i never bothered to ntoice, but i didnt think eve was really contested in our elo.
yeah the wukong game seemed rough on you, but you seemed to pull it together through the morg game and eve was ofcourse a great game for you.
not you, just gamma. he died solo in lane while you guys killed udyr.

I just want to have my ass covered in case I can't pick her. If they ban all the other junglers then I'll have to lane, and then you know how good my laning is at the moment.

It's weird to me how many people I've seen obviously playing Varus just because they got that skin. Like, it's an okay skin, but it doesn't seem like something you play a champion you wouldn't otherwise play for?
I've seen probably five times as much Varus today as I saw Ashe after Heartseeker.
PhillipCostigan
Member
Funnily enough, I think Ashe is better than Varus at the moment too.
Play hecarim or amumu.
Seriously. Varus was a contested pick every single normal I've played Lol. I actually play him so it was very frustrating. The skin is just as good as heartseeker Ashe. They are really knocking it out of the park with the latest skins.
