[QUOTE=ashxu;38700579]btw the NA server is back up[/QUOTE]
Did the actual patch already roll through or what?
Anyone have an idea when the EUW patch comes? Seems to be the only thing they forgot in their FAQ
Runaan's Hurricane on Teemo is... amazing!
There's already guides that have new mastery set ups but I don't feel some of the masteries are worth it. Increasing your AP by 5% seems like a lot but with 500AP it's only a bonus 25AP. (Which you should probably only reach late game)
and Havoc... 2% more damage. So if you deal 1000 damage you'll get a bonus 20 damage.

tonight probly
I recall someone here saying that every bit of damage counts but my memory is foggy.
A few high elo guides recommend taking it. I think Phreak takes it in some of his videos.
Wait, is pre-season 3 started already on live servers?
I feel my AP masteries are really dumb
10/10/10 but I don't feel going further down the offensive tree is worth it (Feel free to prove me wrong though)

Well, I think 6% more damage when the person is below 40% health is pretty good.
I guess I'll think about it.
Legendary Armor (bottom of the defensive tree) gives you 5 Armor/MR if you have 100 bonus Armor/MR.
But if you get Defender you get 1 Armor/MR per enemy champion that's close and it only needs one point (while Legendary Armor requires 3)
oh god this new patch its like an earthquake destroying the town ive been living in for my entire childhood
snip, fuck ezreal im playing tristana.

New Jungle confirmed for fun as hell with Shyvana.
[editline]4th December 2012[/editline]
on a more somber note, [one of?] the managers for Team Dignitas' house caught fire recently.
FUCK, I CAN'T VIDEOS
First S3 game jumped straight into the jungle with Tryndaboss, worked well in my eyes. Kept up in farm and XP, basically let me be another carry without really needing early kills.

I don't understand why you're so conflicted. Pretty much all champs that ran 21 points in offense will continue to run 21 in offense. There's no point in going further into defense than 9 points unless you're willing to go all in because the new defense tree has shit for 10, 11, 12 points. There could be an argument to go a little bit more in utility now since there are a lot more mid-tier options, but I don't think it'd bring as big of a return as just straight going down 21 in offense would.

To be fair, this mastery really is more useful for last hitting minions. They even nerfed it somewhat for S3, +5% below 50%.
Anyone know when us scrubs on EUW are gonna get the update?

defender isnt really that good
thats, what, 5 armor/mr if you're in the middle of the entire enemy team. If you are that balls-deep, you'll probably get blown to pieces anyway

Scaling defense is something I think never works. Flat is always better since it makes you less likely to implode early game, and you should be itemizing for defense late game if you really need it.

Then what do you propose as an alternative for going deep into the defensive tree? The alternative is Legendary Armor. But if you take Defender you can put the other points in things like Reinforced Armor. (Reduced damage taken from crits by 10% for two points)
If it means the full crit damage then it could negate 20-30 damage per auto attack but if it means only the bonus damage from the crit then maybe 10-20.

I'd say something like this:
[IMG]http://puu.sh/1x4Zq/71402e3ad558888fb778e0aee941327b[/IMG]
You get flat HP and scaling HP, 3% reduced damage, flat armor and MR, and tenacity, and health regen. Decent boost early game that scales well into late game. The only thing I'm a little iffy on is the tenacity, and if I had to swap it out, I would go into Unyielding and Block, where the bonus damage mitigation there is going to be super nice early game when each individual health point is more valuable.
This is probably what i am gone run on ez/corkie

Magic Pen and AP/L isn't very strong but all the alternatives are shit.
Since they put the "AD per level" on a different level of the tree you can't use it anymore to replace Havok and they nerfed Lethality and Frenzy is bad on ez (especially if you go TF -> BT you have almost no crit chance.)
Havok is still bad and so is Exectioner, If the 3AD and the 6Armor pen wasn't so far down the tree i wouldn't go deep down it at all.
On the other trees the armor is important and the manaregen is needed on corki and nice to have on ez.
Us poor EUW scrubs, gibe patch plz.
sotrk is on sr now what are you smoking
[QUOTE=DTkach;38684280]This video makes a lot of sense, but the idea of "you belong in your elo, your team isn't the problem you just suck" is equally as retarded as the idea of "ITS EVERYONE'S FAULT BUT MINE".
The KD ratio bit: Sure, having a higher KD ratio tends to indicate a better game. But he's acting like this ratio represents a player's sole laning experience and that's all. The KD ratio itself is influenced by the game, which involves more than just 1v1 or even 2v2 in the event of junglers/bot lane. Having a low KD ratio doesn't mean you got stomped in your lane.
You could easily go 3/0/2 in your lane, but once you leave it, one or more of your team can't team fight to balls and/or one of the other lanes has fed a very dangerous champion. Suddenly, every attempted teamfight, you die, and end with 3/7/5 or something.
Its not so cut and dry, like this gent makes it out to be. Having a better KD ratio could be indicative of how well your team is doing (thus causing success on your behalf) rather than individual skill. Same applies on the opposite end of the spectrum.
"You go positive, you win. You go negative, you lose" is a very inaccurate statement. It should be: "You went positive because you won, you went negative because you lost".
Also, the idea that there is only a single incompetent/obnoxious/otherwise detrimental person on your team is just silly. I don't think anyone claims there is ONE AFKer/troll/whatever in their games when describing ELO hell, its basically "everyone is stupid as fuck" or something along those lines. Sure, it could easily effect the enemy team as badly as it effects you, but there's still a great deal of luck involved.
There's an equal chance to get one or more people like yourself, IE good people trying to climb out of their ELO, as there is a chance of getting people who are legally mentally impaired (or should be). Its luck, and a bad string of it can easily result in an inaccurate placement in ELO. The lower you go, the more likely the bad players to appear, the more bad players that appear, the lower you go, and the cycle repeats.
tl;dr: That video promotes a good attitude to have (bettering one's self rather than making excuses), but doesn't disprove the existence of anything.[/QUOTE]
I like how we went over this like a week ago, and anyone with the opinion you just had got slammed (me included). League of legends in a nutshell.
Also, Season 3 rape train incoming, i'm preparing my body.
I swear I can't get a single game with English-speaking people.

So many new cc % Reductions, you can pretty much spec into in defense and grab zephyr on irelia and you have close to 60 with one target
the slow reduction is going to be delicious for udyr
