League of Legends v35 - Gangplank appreciation thread - Games

Yea I generally try to rush level 3 and get an early gank off anyways, hence me either backing or trying to take them if my gank fails. Im honestly surprised by how many people still do pretty hard leashes, most of the time i can use a potion and save smite on blue/red do wolves and then clear the other buff with smite and have a potion left over and level 3.

Notice how all champions released prior to May 2012 (from the first batch with Alistar, Teemo, Annie, Nunu, Kayle, etc. up to Hecarim) all had their own original personality and theme with exaggerated traits and comical look. Then this trend suddenly changed with champions like Varus, Draven, Darius, Jayce, etc. that are a lot more "serious" and don't have as much personality imo. Where has your humor went Riot?

The fuck are you talking about?

[QUOTE=Pat.Lithium;51760732]tahm, lulu, ziggs, zac, jinx, vi, kled, gnar, braum, and theres plenty of serious champs that have personality like jhin.[/QUOTE] Lulu and Ziggs were added before May 2012. Jinx and Vi are not what I consider comical / humorous champions with a lot of personality and exaggerated traits (like Cho'Gath, Teemo, Alistar, Blitzcrank, Amumu, etc.). Kled and Gnar may get closer to that description, but still pretty different (theme, art style, humor) from what we had with the first ~100 champions imo.

Why?

People say elo hell doesn't exists, but you're fucking wrong [t]http://i.imgur.com/dIeO1s5.png[/t] Also taken from the game chat: "Jinx build a fucking hurricane already" "Lol hurricane on Jinx"

[QUOTE=francisbaud;51760812]Jinx and Vi are not what I consider comical / humorous champions with a lot of personality and exaggerated traits[/QUOTE] Say what you will about jinx, but I still sometimes crack up thinking of VI punching things screaming "RESIST ARREST ALREADY!" I find hilarious how much she just doesn't give a shit about the typical "police protocol" and really only does the job to beat people up.

I don't even know... this is horrible, every game ALL the lanes are losing while I stale mine and roam to others as much as I can. It's been YEARS since ive seen such horrible, UNCARRYIABLE games

fucking amazing, didn't get the full screencap of it but this adc went absolutely berserk in champ select because we banned twitch and lee sin DCHuni: french fdp noob DCHuni: french fdp noob DCHuni: french fdp noob DCHuni: french fdp noob DCHuni: french fdp noob BaconMonsterrrr!:idk Lexi8756: i'm not even french fuck my life

I've had someone lose their shit because we banned his main, Darius, despite the fact he made absolutely no indication of it beforehand.

[QUOTE=Sir Whoopsalot;51761725]I've had someone lose their shit because we banned his main, Darius, despite the fact he made absolutely no indication of it beforehand.[/QUOTE] I've seen that. No hover, no obvious name related to the character, completely silent in chat. Champion known to be super strong, or really annoying to deal with and popular. Ban it, immediately get flamed and the guy starts trolling.

[QUOTE=Bathtub;51761917]im dumb, whos the personification of death that cracks jokes with itself[/QUOTE] i'd assume kindred since karthus is old and so is yorick (unless you think of him as 'new' because of his rework)

[QUOTE=Bathtub;51761917]im dumb, whos the personification of death that cracks jokes with itself[/QUOTE] Kindred. Granted, it's two people (or whatever the fuck you wanna call them) but they have a personality and make jokes about each other.

[QUOTE=GentlemanLexi;51761938]i'd assume kindred since karthus is old and so is yorick (unless you think of him as 'new' because of his rework)[/QUOTE] Wow I didn't even think of Kindred. Goes to show how badly they're doing right now. [editline]1st February 2017[/editline] Karthus does have one of the best jokes though. "What [i]was[/i] that invocation? (mumble mumble) Oh yes! R!"

i 100% forgot that kindred even existed tbh

I really like Kindred. Cross post from the cutest characters thread [QUOTE=slayer20;51764073]My friends and I were playing League of Legends and talking about which skins would be better on different champions. [t]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/243234025567813632/276557149402824704/New_Canvas.jpg[/t] So I drew Kindred as a Star Guardian. Please enjoy.[/QUOTE]

speaking of skins, why is there no death blossom zyra? i want a good zyra skin. [editline]2nd February 2017[/editline] mad scientist zyra, plants are human arms

[QUOTE=slayer20;51764077]I really like Kindred. Cross post from the cutest characters thread[/QUOTE] I like the concept, I think the execution leaves something to be desired though. They don't feel like a dual character champion, it feels more like Lamb does most of the work and tells Wolf what to do. And sometimes Wolf marks a camp for Lamb to hunt.

On one hand I really like Kindred the way it is (bring back the move-to-heal passive plz), but on the other hand I'd be interested to see how they would make the Wolf more "independent".

I wanna see some more French Maid and Butler skins.
