It makes no sense. If people knew about the Frozen Watchers, then why didn't they expect the Ice Witch to be associated with them.

thats not bad.
I got Ahri, Alistar, n Vlad tonight. Had some fun with friends. Probabl wont ever play it again.
apparently rito is trying out a system that adds a random chance to multiply the ip you just won when you play on a premade party. the more people the higher the multiplier, up to 16x, but it's still random chance so you might not win anything. but if you get like a 16x win on a ranked 5s first win of the day that's like 4.5k ip on a single game. super rare tho, i imagine most cases you'll just win a little bit
not much else is interesting in this pbe patch

Blizzard mechanic of bringing your friends equals more exp for the group huh?
"idk how to play ez"
"im also really baked"
Or something like that, from champion select. They picked Ezreal.
If anyone would like to spectate a Malzahar game and teach me to carry I would appreciate it.

I thought he might be good for getting back out of bronze/silver, but I've been losing the vast majority of the games I've played with him. I don't have ANY champion with more than 2-4 games played that has a >50% win rate right now for ranked. Everyone is like 25-35% for me I think.

I have not yet seen this happen, but in theory it sounds nice. In practice I ended up with (for example) enemy Braum with sightstone, versus Fiddlesticks without sightstone. Only one person on my team the entire game bought an upgraded trinket that I saw, despite me begging them in chat.
I feel like in the last 12+ games I have played, not once has bot lane won on my team regardless of what role I've played (even if I'm bot...though I might have won bot once duoing with Panda when we BOTH went there). I need to start keeping serious stats, because most games I'm not sure anyone even has a positive KDA -- not that it matters for much, but it's a little crazy when NO ONE does almost every single game.
Disclaimer, this is probably just me being biased, and if someone checked my gane history they could prove me wrong.
weren't you just bitching about mobility?

He can also destroy tanks with his W, he's good against uncoordinated players that clump up and don't move.
What the shit, I just saw , on Twitch, a Vi that did her ult on Zed. Zed activates his ult to escape, but when he re-appeared, Vi's ult connected
I should start jungling as Vi, even if my Qs fail to connect.
I saw a similar issue where I was Leona and I hit a LeBlanc right as she split and blinked away and then came back to where I stunned her.
Why do you say that?
yeah, you're probably just on a bad streak or something
what champions are you playing? maybe you're not on the right champion for you at the moment
"We would have wrecked you late game."

Uh, maybe? But you never got there, did you?
Edit: Far too often I'm still the only one upgrading the trinket in my games.
what the hell was everyone buying in that game lol
It's an item sampler. This is how we do it down here.
I have reached the bronze level where my last game had support Skarner vs. support Shaco.
We might have won too! But, my ISP decided to randomly die for 40 minutes, after being fine for weeks, so I got a leave from that game and the warning from Riot about it. ;____;
I've been on this streak since placing into silver V and failing a promotion out of it. With win percentages on each, I've tried Tryndamere (40%), Sivir (40%), Teemo (27%), Zyra (33%), singed (50%), Ahri (33%), and Rammus (33%). Everyone else appears to be less than 3 games played.
yeah, based on that picture i think ppl are way past worrying about trinkets, and i think you should probably forget about what other people build as well, as it seems they're inevitably gonna be a danger to themselves
also i think you probably could've just gone straight for deathcap against that enemy team, since there are not many reasons to build zhonyas considering how much magic damage they had. at least get nlr instead of seekers and decide what you're gonna upgrade it to later, since seekers takes a while to be cost effective and unless you were constantly getting poked by ezreal, the armor was gonna be completely wasted against a mostly magic damage team with a volibear that's never gonna get near you because he's an dumbo that never bought boots
yeah, that's pretty bad.
this is just my opinion, but a lot of those champions are not necessarily the easiest to be consistent with, like teemo or singed or tryndamere. if you're worried about not doing all that great, just try playing someone more reliable for a while. maybe maokai or something. instead of ahri play ziggs. instead of sivir play graves or corki. instead of zyra play janna. etc.
might not be the most fun champions but it could help you get you back on track. try also to play the same champions more often, and just build yourself that tiny champion pool that you can always count on.
I wasn't going to build Zhonya's except for when I got back I had the exact amount for a Seeker's and I didn't want to leave without buying to wait for Blasting Wand or something. The game was pretty much over at that point anyway.

I don't know how to play Graves or Corki. I feel like they're my worst ADCs when I try them, aside from the old days of AP mid Corki.
Fortunately apparently all I had to do was complain, since immediately after my sad post I got people with positive KDAs, and a fed Master Yi + Tristana on my team. Even the fed Tristana lost her tower before getting the enemy tower, but I'll still take the win.
I think my biggest problem with Malzahar is getting high CS consistently. His autoattack animation is SO slow that I constantly don't get gold from an E tick + autoattack being slightly off.

i dunno, if you don't have enough to even buy a blasting wand i would just either not buy anything or just buy elixir
tho i dunno how effective elixir is on kat now that it gives mp5 instead of cdr
well, just a suggestion, i usually just pick corki when i adc since he's easy to play (at least coming from skillshot land) and not as boring as graves imo
Jayce and Rumble two of my five favorite champions, and are really strong at the moment.
Anyone got any tips to properly use Rumble's ult? I get it has big range but I can't seem to land it in a way that it'd do the most damage or function as a trap
You should watch a lot of Rumble play to see how players use it, Marin and Huni are two I personally recommend. It should be used differently depending on whether you're in a team fight comp or a pick comp, and whether you're fighting in narrow terrain or not.
Through personal experience and watching other players, you'll learn the situations that you want to use it to optimize damage and the ones where you choose to zone key members for a few, game changing, seconds.
Experiment!

Think in advance about who you're going to use it on. If you're against, say, Lux and Jinx, obviously you want to drop it under them at the start of a fight - place it well and they're either zoned for several seconds, burn Flash, or tank half their HP. Much less effective against Zed and Ezreal in this way - you need Ezreal to use E first and for Zed to commit. Against divers like, say, Jarvan and Rengar, you wait for them to commit and have two choices: either drop it under them to CC and damage them, or drop it between them and their team to cut them off. Sometimes if the enemy team is split up in the jungle you can use the ult to cut off the back up that's trying to arrive. Occasionally you can use it to straight up engage. It's quite helpful to play against or watch good Rumbles to see it in action. Remember, always, use it before you overheat!
In lane you can use it to clear the next wave fast to get a cheap base if you're sure you won't need it (I do this nearly every game as Rumble at least once).

Aside from boots, is there any ADC who doesn't get LW as third item?

Everyone in Silver and Gold.
I usually go (for Draven) BT > Zeal > LW. Recently been going Brute second for the added troll and ArPen but since changed to BT > GB > LW.
