You guys need AD Jungle Malzahar in your life. Take dragon at level 2.

The code gives you the champ anywayOh great. I bought Vel'Koz for the code, code was invalid.
Guess who should not rush towards "free stuff": ME!

If you can win the game without baron buff, don't bother getting baron.
Get towers. Don't chase kills. Play League of Legends and not the Blame Game.
Recognize which objectives you can take with map control that expose you to the least amount of danger. Establish vision control that preempts enemy movement so you can react properly, because this also sets up pick potential and helps contain them.

Biggest one for me is to not chase kills. It happens way too often. If you have an early lead, capitalize them and don't let them reach late game where the lead doesn't matter as much.

The first two is something I wish my team mates would get through their skulls.
Nothing bugs me more during League than when a teammate or two, or three, or four chase after an escaping support (that they won't catch anyway) through the jungle instead of taking a tower or dragon after a big fight. At very least they could have backed and bought some stuff. Instead the other team is back up, has bought, and comes out at full strength and we've not taken a tower, used the chance to ward up the jungle (and sweep), or spend our gold.
In short, take objectives when you have the time to. Always. Objectives > kills and it will force them into a defensive game where you can establish and control vision and other objectives.

I think a line for codes would work better. PAX Prime was insane: Rioters would stand in the LCS room between games or walk around the convention centre and people would just surround them. The Rioters would ask trivia questions to those standing the closest, give out a handful of codes, and then leave everyone else empty-handed.
I was pretty lucky to get my codes: ran into a couple Rioters in quiet areas. If only MF was viable in the meta.

She was very viable during that time.
It's dumb how hard she has fallen off. I stupidly played her recently in ranked and was 8-0-2 in lane. Finished 11-6-8 and lost because she has no hope in the late game when all these ridiculously mobile champions get 3-4 complete items. Oh, and they had a Nasus, so screw it, she can't kite him before he can eventually catch her and kill her.

The Arclight Vel'Koz codes were in the PAX East swag bags. Riot Kayle was the other they were giving away. I got both of them.

This is the sucky thing about living in Ireland: no PAX
well it's not the sucky thing (there are a lot) but it's a sucky thing

There's no PAX anywhere remotely close to me and I live in America.

aye, but at least it's probably like a 2 or 3 hour flight as opposed to 9... to the east coast
And probably a quarter of the price.or like 20 to Australia or whatever it is.

Oh yeah they would've saved a lot of trouble if they included the codes in the swag bags. They were so disappointing at Prime last year: eye drops, bunch of ads, and a deck of Magic cards. I saw a lot of people dumping the whole bag and just keeping the cards.
I'm not sure if I want to go this year since the lines for anything were insane. Maybe if there was a playable Zelda demo.
It's ok. We can be in the no-skin club
I want to try him again. Only played him once.
There's so many little things they could do for her. Lower the cost of her E, let her keep running while activating E, add a stack of Impure Shots on her Q, let her ult scale better with AD, let her passive not fall off by minion attacks, let Impure Shots last longer before falling off...none of those would make her OP yet would make her so more well rounded. She has no teamfight mobility or escape so that means she needs some love elsewhere,
I also feel she might be better if she could actually take better advantage of her mixed damage but she can't do that either. none of those current items really suit her well (or they suit someone else much, much better, like Corki and Ez)

unless u like feeling useless until u get 3 items then ur not gonna like velkoz.
Vel'koz does a ton of damage even with support stuff, like Zyra. He just can't do much at all if someone jumps on him (again, like Zyra).

or having an enemy with high mobility
I've been playing vel supp lately and really enjoy it.

nah, i've played him
he tends to just not do anything if he can't pick up damage items, especially compared to zyra. its why i rarely feel threatened by a velkoz support; he has 0 money which equals 0 items.

I will post my codes later when I am home; both were already used in NA by me but you guys on other servers should be able to use them, too, right?

Vel'Koz support is decent early game but he does not have the damage or utility to justify not having farm.
Having a supp Vel'Koz is basically turning the game 4v5 after 20 minutes.

If it makes you guys feel better Vel'Koz is shit
Newt don't do this to me, I was going to start maining Vel'Koz support to annoy my adc.

You need to post these games. I would love to watch these EUNE bronze games. Even if they are 60 minutes long.

It's ok Bard is coming and you can just play thatNewt don't do this to me, I was going to start maining Vel'Koz support to annoy my adc.
You could probably get to Gamescom or something. I dunno, I would never travel for something as commercial as a video games expo.aye, but at least it's probably like a 2 or 3 hour flight as opposed to 9... to the east coast

Loving the Caitlyn sinergy description with him like "You are alone in lane, good luck!"
Maybe not jungle, but I've seen some top lane AD Malzahars do some ridiculous damage. It's one of those cheesy picks that can absolutely wreck. Or get wrecked. Whatever.

Here's a recent match I lost that's hitting home to me how EUNE ADCs are brain dead in Bronze Hell
http://matchhistory.eune.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/EUN1/1119722872/205390904
WW and Kata argued all match and that early nonsense escalated and cost us the game, only our Nida could've carried us but if she had some better communication we could've done better and won.
I don't see much use on WW having armor pen too tbh >_>;
