Is anyone going to be ok in the new NURF mode. After thinking about it for a while I couldnt think of anymore that would be good or ok.

The only person that I think could work would be rammus with sunfire and thornmail, Sine those two items dont have any input to use.

Vlad, Mundo and most of all, Nunu
Full AP, impossible to miss empires baby

Cassio still has 0.5 seconds cooldown on her E of the target is poisoned, I think.

The mana costs will be brutal though
Certainly. Tear into roa into athenes might be necessary.

I doubt that will be enough, 180 mana a pop will go through her pool in like one rotation
Itemizing for her DoTs on the other hand... Liandry's plus full AP and using only her Q and W which will be impossible to dodge with the decreased movespeed will probably actually kill people
Would it be better than karthus? He should have lower cooldown on his Q.

Karthus will probably work as well, just gotta remember to never press E
Ok, after about 2 weeks off, I think I'm ready to get back into things. I feel like I should probably stream my games, because nothing but stupid stuff happens (sometimes in my favor, sometimes not) when I play. Even if it's not great play, it's great comedy. I'll archive and let you guys know when something is worth a peek.
This is absolutely true. The amount mind blowing dumbfuckery I've seen spectating Jeff's games is ridiculous.

You mean welcome to ranked
I had a "challenger" moment with something very basic today. Bear in mind I just bought Caitlyn and I have only like 5 games at best with her.
Anyway, I got fairly fed in lane and basically all our lanes were even/ahead mostly, so this Yi jungle in the enemy team tries to get me on his own. I dropped a trap under me, he Q's and basically I just auto him to death. Since I had positioned myself in minions, he either had to run towards my turret, get auto'd by me in the river entrance/area or get chunked down by the minions there (he had like a sliver of life).
Was fun, and we ended up winning, so that was something that felt pretty good! I know it's not really something worth mentioning, but it was good that for once I didn't panick while being on my own.

I'm kinda sad that Mundo is getting buffs.
I don't want anyone to realize he's a super secret sleeper OP support.

too late already did.
hmm I want to try this. Sounds fun
No, no. Nope.
I've spectated many of you at random times and I've spectated random games from Silver all the way to Challenger. I've seen some weird shit out of those matches, but no one touches Jeff. Matchmaking legit has a portion of the code meant to fuck with his soul.
(and it's hilarious)

Everything is tanks now. Which means your ADC pool is now two-deep or you lose.
I lost a 18/6/13 ADC ranked game with Ezreal. I messed up positioning 72 minutes in and ended it, and teammates raged at me.
My team had a Bard.
An hour in, our team had the enemy mid inhib down, an enemy dead, and could rush either middle or the bottom inhib tower. Guess what happened? One person called top lane INNER TOWER, one or two other people split, and that basically cemented the loss (2-3 lost barons later).
In a 72-minute game, 2 people on my team never upgraded their trinket either. I asked multiple times.
I have had two of these. I have basically quit ranked permanently as there's no hope I will ever win again no matter what I do. I have things I can improve on, but Bronze is so bad I just don't care enough anymore.

Those are his shrooms
Yea I had a Morg game like this the other day. I went to ward, but ended up walking into a brush with 4 enemies and got demolished. Pretty much lost it for the team right there. It sucked, but you learn.

This is true. Improving mechanics won't help if you don't understand objectives, rotations, and roaming properly.
so i think the nurf thing will just be this ex pro fun game and then we'll all get normal urf? that's what i think will happen now

I feel like this applies to me a lot. My mechanics are pretty good, at least I think they are.. but I always feel like something is missing. Not being in the right place at the right time. Things like that.

Either blame QT or...
Honestly Graves' burst is really interesting me, I'll grab him next time I have enough IP or if he goes on RP sale.

I hope they made a Omega Squad theme champions soon, really tempted to buy his skin
This applies to me too about not knowing when to go for objectives and rotations, but it also doesn't necessarily apply to bronze when (like I mentioned) people split into two different lanes an hour into a game, practically preventing any objective from being taken. As Newt said, bronze is somewhat incoherent.
Unless you're playing a solo split pusher like Tryndamere, I don't think you can often take lanes of minions + inhibitor towers + inhibitors by yourself, and no amount of begging or pleading or pinging seems to influence some people to focus getting to structures in those situations.
If it were a diamond game there might still be lots of people making poor decisions, but I theorize that objective focus / rotations might on average be better.

Only if teemo stand still and do nothing to survive otherwhise teemo can destroy Yi pretty easy.
