I think I just learned how to play Annie after all these years.

For some reason I just never did good with her until recently.

it took you years to use flash?

 

[Negaduck]

No clue why, just for some reason I've never been able to play her.

I can play Cass and other complex champs no problem but always had bad games with Annie.

I hate Yasuo so much. I don't get how to beat him at all. Any tips for mid lane?

 

[Ghost is Bad]

how to beat yasuo

wait past laning phase for him to throw like dignitoss

 

[Rayven]

So are you guys comfortable with the HUD update yet? Anything you still have trouble adjusting to?

just take it easy, play passive and let yourself get pushed, he's not too great at harassing u when you don't have a minion line for him to dash all over to. he can windwall you from cs'ing under turret which is pretty annoying and will make u miss cs, but the big thing you want to avoid is him charging up dashes, dashing at you, getting a few qs and autos and dashing away.

so just keep your cool and farm, stay away from your own minions and let him overextend. buy seeker's armguard if u must, but you should be able to do ok without it

after laning most yasuos are bad enough that they become useless/throw artists

So are you guys comfortable with the HUD update yet? Anything you still have trouble adjusting to?

wouldn't say comfortable, but i don't have many issues with it

i feel like i have a few less information cos my brain can't learn all the new icons and i still mostly use tab to check on death timers, so not seeing much of an improvement, but at least it looks fancy and i can move around ppl in the scoreboard which is nice for cs numbers

I still find myself wishing player names were displayed on the scoreboard (without mouseover). It makes tracking chat more difficult for me for whatever reason, because it's harder for me to recognize the players. I also don't feel that much closer to recognizing the icons in the character loadout. I don't have the UI up for immediate reference but the coloring on the creep score counter felt a little strange to me. Also haven't adjusted to the store. My attention feels really split when I'm looking up and to the right for upgrade paths and the gold value is down at the bottom. Maybe the store page just feels too big in general to me. I'm not sure.

I'm liking a few more things about it over time at least. Stuff like the experience bar placement are really nice.

So you're not using the death timers above the minimap? Anything else other than icons? You're ok with the side-by-side scoreboard?

 

[dimb]

These are really hard for me to remember for some reason when I'm the one who dies.

 

[zkylon]

i think it's a cool addition but after three years it's taking a while getting used to it

i still find myself looking to the left to check who's ult is on cooldown for instance

You're ok with the side-by-side scoreboard?

yeah, i like it much better

i share the sentiment with soda tho, i miss player names cos my friends tend to play the same champions sometimes so i get them mixed up if i only see the champion name

like my friends always get super confused with other midlaners that aren't me haha

 

[kenbo]

I too wish the tab player display showed player names since I identify chat with the player and not the champion.

Also, I think the shop is a little big and wish I could move items around because that's the main time when I'm looking at my items in the first place

 

[killatopak]

It depends on who I'm using. I wait for my power spike and play defensively until I get there.

Then I just win.

 

[23qwerty]

I love how hard late-mid game jinx goes

Spoiler

for the record i did most of the damage to those two at the beginning

 

[Ambition]

Yeah she's great although, for as hard as she scales I think her early game needs to get toned down. One kill is all it takes to get rolling

Way too far from A, which I use for attack move.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

They added more counters to his burst actually.

oh. so how is he appropriately dealt with? I can probably count on my hands how many times I've seen him over the years. Then suddenly he rolls in 3 games I've been in over 2 days like wtf. tips pls

Essentially you have to have mercury threads so he can't guarantee a Black Matter hit off of his cage. Later in the game priority targets might need QSS.

He's really susceptible to ganks in the early game. Once he starts to oneshot people with his ult it has gotten too late unless you can swiftly assassinate him.

[Terbinator]

Why aren't you scrubs just using your back/forward buttons on your mouse?

oh ok. you need a real assassin on the squad. an LB/Rengar type. Splat before they even know what happened. I assume Ahri, Lux, Vel, Brand and Azir match up with him well mid in particular?

 

[Snakethesniper]

I went from silver 3 to silver 5 playing this week. I had my bad games, but most of the time I find junglers that don't gank or people that go afk. I don't know what to do really.
I had a gold V nidalee that died against the wolves in the first minute and started feeding every lane.

How does that work?

 

[killatopak]

How does that work?

You basically shred tanks with your ult. Reduce damage of the adc and cc them as well with your pillar.

 

[kenbo]

How does that work?

Mostly through very clever use of your pillar in team fights(8.8s CD with a 6s Duration - 66% uptime on pillar in team fights....)

And your ult as stated by killa

the Q isnt too bad against bruisers
