I don't remember selling a game for more than $6 ever. I hang onto my games though. I like to replay them at least once

master yi hits his power spike so early now with the fully upgraded jungle item. you don't have to wait for feral/bork to gank. exhaust/smite yi is so strong in the jungle holy shi
 
Singed? Hurricane Twitch? Cassiopeia's dream team! Now if we only had that Teemo...

Doesn't only Singed's and Teemo's poison (if you had him on your team) work for Cassiopea's E, since Twitch's is different?

Yeah, I got wrecked by Yi in a game yesterday. He hurt way more than what I am used to. It was teleport/smite, but the damage was still ridiculous after the jungle item.

Oh, it's him.

But Deadnames is a cool guy. Sure he makes some dumb posts, but he's just fine ingame. Unlike that other guy.

Oh! I know nothing about him, I just found it hilarious that I randomly found him like this. XD

Deadnames, if you read this, hope you didn't think it was a personal attack o_o just was surprised!

Jesus I laughed so hard. I hope he isn't permabanned here. I always felt he was initially influenced by my ranting but he absolutely surpassed it to the point of total hilariousness. Heavy had a promising start but he didn't live up to its potential.

DeadNames on the other hand needs to return here and not waste his talent just on reddit.

I am loving the Braulista lane! Idk why but I am also enjoying Braum a lot, so easy to turn an engage around...

Had a really rude jungler get pissy and really verbally abusive, when we were clearly winning. He kept on trying to dive, without minions under their tower and blamed us (???), and also when he missed a smite vs a Katarina he got a pissy fit.
He had like 0 map awareness and got executed once too. ~_~

Meanwhile yelling "noob team gg" in chat.

Thank god the enemy team surrendered, having to endure certain people on weekends makes League super annoying!
 
Finally got to play Sion, and it was on ARAM.

That was so freaking fun. I really really like how much better Q is (for Sion and enemies) compared to the old click and stun.

Sion's kit is just impractical imo. That Q is so broken in the perfect scenario, but that almost never happens. I like his W and E but not his Q or ult

The Q is fine in a chaotic teamfight. You can just charge it while absorbing damage and 2-3 people won't notice it, even easier if you hit people with E. Even the minimum knock up is great so it doesn't have to be the 2 seconds. I seldom use it in lane tho, just to farm if the other top laner isn't there.

I wish turning with his ulti was a bit easier. I understand why it's the way it is but it's waaaay too clunky. Still fun as fuck.

So we have 6 dragons and 2 barons, and I say "I'm splitting, don't die, just make pressure in inner top which has 3 hits to go down", mordekaiser and yi inmediately dive a Lissandra, Udyr and GA Ashe 2v3 top and die obviously. GG WP never getting rid of ranked restriction with these silvers. This game sucks.

That shit pisses me off. It's so easy to dodge that I don't get how people don't dodge it. Lost two team fights a day or two ago because of it. People just letting Sion charge it all the way, why?? -_-;

I mean I get it that dpsing is important but side-stepping and such, you'd think people could learn how to do that, no?

If you have 6 dragons, 2 barons, and 20 kills, it should take you about 12 seconds to push down any lane with your team and win the game. I don't know why you would split push, or take the most fed person in the game out of a potential teamfight.

Expecting people to do what you want them to do is the leading cause of losses.

Yea, if you "are the team" with that many kills, you probably should not split. Doubly so if you aren't even a split pushing champion.

I had my reasons to try splitpushing after a few teamfights.

Reason 1: paper Mordekaiser full AP, flash ult burst to a fucking Morgana. Twice.

Reason 2: Yi using Q to engage all the time.

Reason 3: blue Trashzreal no damage.

Reason 4: Janna can't use ult.

Reason 5: I had teleport up and I could even 2v1 because I'm best Karma EUW.

Trash team; case closed.

Your the most fed person why leave your team lol

I see people notice it. It's also easy to break before it goes off, which seems to happen a lot in busy fights with multiple people.

Thankfully Yi helped me with ganks, but throughout mid game and til late my team would die to the opposition :V
Was still fun though and I got some kills off of it.
Love Ulti-ing a Fizz that doesn't Flip in time :p
 
Not after rework.
Oh, missed the memo then.

His passive needs some work - the spike in movement speed is too low to actually be threatening - and I wish they would shave off like half a second off of his Q. Connecting a fully channeled one is hardly ever going to happen, especially with how easily interrupted it is. Did find it funny when I saw this happen once though:

Why is ghost banned? Gotta make room in the thread now that zkylon is back? :p
Probably due to his use of "gay" and "retarded."

Forever. Riot seems to want Warwick to be top tier in this jungle.

Which is fucking stupid, because he's also the introductory jungler. It's the same thing that happened with Ryze. You can't have the easiest to play champion in a given role also be the goddamn strongest.

Eh I dunno, they'll probably, nerf him by the time LCS rolls around. Can't see them letting Warwick be a professional star.

It is preseason right now, and that's probably one of the best times to jump in. Games during preseason don't count for as much as in the season proper due to an mmr soft reset in the beginning of the season. If you have played quite a few draft normals so you are used to the pick/ban phase you should be fine.

They did at least nerf Ashe in S1 after she was both the strongest and easiest adc. Hopefully warwick is soon nerfed.

This GIF is confusing me. The ground overlay makes it looks like it's being charged to the left, but it apparently actually hits up instead, with the overlay briefly flashing there? What happened?

*edit* And the little Miss Fortune icon is funny though I guess that's from kill notifications.

what kind of guys am i playing with in placements ? silver,bronze ?

im getting matched with plat and diamond every now and then in normals and gold often is that gonna happen in the placements ? id rather avoid that

It should not happen. Since this is your first time in ranked, you should not be able to be placed higher than Gold 1 after your placements. I would guess you will face silver something players in the beginning, and then other ranks depending on how you fare in your first games. After placements it is simpler since you know what rank you are.

You can wait it out I guess, but it'll just have the same result. If you play against high ranks and lose, you'll end up in silver/bronze. If you win, you'll probably end up higher. If you don't play at all, you'll still be in silver/bronze, which are pretty much the same thing.
