[QUOTE=SoftHearted;51527199]is there anyone that legimately enjoys Vladimir? I tried him out once and he seems pretty boring.[/QUOTE] There are Vlad OTPs, so sure. Once you get rolling I've heard he's really fun because you basically never die while still outputting a ton of damage, although he used to be worse about it before.

[QUOTE=Pat.Lithium;51527163]i had a sion top in one of my games recently after a cahin of horrible afker games. when the jungle spawned i saw the announcement that he was executed by the wolves and i was ready to lose my shit before i realised it was a legit strategy to die to wolves and tp back to lane as sion.[/QUOTE] Let's take it one step further, from losing your shit to shitting yourself, check this out (specifically 0:27, but the whole montage is good) [video]https://youtu.be/kKdzRCt-XHI?t=27[/video]

I am actually so pissed right now. I thought that when the Shaco nerfs went live they might be lighter, but then I look at the patch notes and see that not only did they put up those nerfs exactly as-is, they actually [i]also decided to suddenly nerf his E's AD ratio too[/i]. For literally no reason. Why must you do this to me Riot. [editline]14th December 2016[/editline] They got rid of the Lee Sin nerf. They fucking destroy Shaco's asshole with nerfs this patch, but they don't even include the [i]one[/i] Lee Sin nerf. What the actual fuck.

My christmas wish was Yasuo, Lee Sin and Vayne all nerfed into oblivion. that would make my day for sure.

Punching the Nexus with Sion never gets old. AD Sion is definitely a definition of running a train up someone's ass.

Aw man, they fixed Teemo's poison proccing Thunderlord's. And Jungle Smite's been nerfed, fucking lovely.

Crit/AS Sion is the most hilarious thing. The mightiest of boots.

Goddamit Riot don't start fucking up the lanes I like playing. If you want to nerf something there's plenty of broken champions where you can start with.

[QUOTE=GentlemanLexi;51530647]people who start incessantly shit talking just cause i'm playing a mastery 7 champ and doing well "fucking stop playing ur main in normals you tryhard" whoa calm down sorry for playing somebody i find fun you cum dumpster[/QUOTE] People who spam the mastery medal and laugh when playing shit like Riven or Darius. Love when they stop doing that and stop tauting in all chat when they get rekt or camped, means that they are talking shit in their team's chat instead :v: Tilting much

Does anyone still use the Facepunch chat channel? I haven't really played much since season 2, but I remember the channel was already pretty dead ever since partway through season 1.

I'm in it. I don't use it, but I'm in it.

i got placed in bronze 1 and this place is absolute fucking hell zed steals all my farm and then the team blames me for not being able to fight the 20/3 mf why

i think everyone is getting placed lower than they expected this season. what amazes me is how poor the matchmaking has been this season.

[QUOTE=GentlemanLexi;51531805]i got placed in bronze 1 and this place is absolute fucking hell zed steals all my farm and then the team blames me for not being able to fight the 20/3 mf why[/QUOTE] What lane do you play usually?

[QUOTE=GentlemanLexi;51531805]i got placed in bronze 1 and this place is absolute fucking hell zed steals all my farm and then the team blames me for not being able to fight the 20/3 mf why[/QUOTE] I am in the same boat as you. Got placed from Gold V to Bronze l

/mute all remains my favourite feature of the game.

[QUOTE=Pat.Lithium;51533456]/mute all remains my favourite feature of the game.[/QUOTE] gotta mute that 5/12 yasuo who claims to carry the game [media]https://youtu.be/fBS7lEk_tAw[/media] lmfao

man, Taliyah is really fun, I'm amazed I don't see her more admittedly I'm pretty sure the only reason I did well on my first game with her is that no one else has ever seen her played either

[QUOTE=SiberysTranq;51533845]man, Taliyah is really fun, I'm amazed I don't see her more admittedly I'm pretty sure the only reason I did well on my first game with her is that no one else has ever seen her played either[/QUOTE] They gave her a buff with her E W combo making it piss easy to do, then shit all over her E W numbers so that her Q is the only thing that does damage worth a shit. She was huge during MSI and even during Summer split, but after the nerfs she's just objectively weak.

[QUOTE=Grindigo;51533245]What lane do you play usually?[/QUOTE] usually I play top/jungle/adc played adc draven that game think we still won that one somehow

[QUOTE=GentlemanLexi;51534122]usually I play top/jungle/adc played adc draven that game think we still won that one somehow[/QUOTE] Stick to top or maybe mid, give up jungle and adc. Jungle is painful to play in this elo unless you feel like practicing, you can expect people to whine at you and blame you 24/7 when they lose their lane cause they are bad and they don't stick to farming. ADC because you will get bad support players, no one mains support in this elo, even if you want to just farm it out and scale, your support will most likely force stupid shit and feed and won't ward correctly, no point blaming them but it's nerve wrecking, ADC is doable just right but it isn't rewarding, more of a gamble. Going mid means you can get a lot of farm, easy access to lanes, buffs, might be the best lane to carry from. Going top means you get the jungle pressure on you if you know when to play aggressive and you can keep the jungle pressure off your other lanes, that is if you play it correctly, still getting solo exp and farm which is great. Don't bother with TP plays unless you are 100% certain you can get something done solo, otherwise TP to lane to farm, play like a selfish prick too.

Jungle is fine if you play carry jungles. If you're good at champions like Lee Sin, - probably not you're G5, but then again you're also in bronze right now - Elise, Kha, Rengar you can shit fire and death all over kids right now and hard carry. If you're a tank or utility jungle main, drop it like he said and start playing shit like Darius, Olaf, and Jayce top. Generally very feast or famine, if you're half decent you'll probably climb rapidly to mid-silver or so where you can start putting your old jungle pool back to use. It's not exactly the pinnacle of teamwork, but that's where you start seeing people who can read champion abilities. Unless you're a dedicated ADC main right now and you want to play Twitch, Caitlyn, or Jhin a lot, don't play ADC. It's in a comparatively garbage spot right now. [editline]15th December 2016[/editline] I mean everything works in low elo, but the shortest trip up the ladder is usually something you're good with that hard carries.

League is a game which never ceases to amaze me at how many bad players there are, when I think I saw the bottom, there is another ledge and another pit below, a downward spiral. But one thing for sure that League has taught me, it's not even about going against 5 other players on the opposing team which sometimes is easier, you are practically against your own team and in order to win, you got to put those carry pants on and play to your team's strengths and weaknesses, and being prepared to get that PhD in psychology because some people clearly need it when they tilt.

I stopped playing for like three weeks and my positioning went to shit. I've been getting like 8 death games on Brand recently, makes me really sad. At least I get to admire the gravestone on the Zombie Brand skin more, I guess.
