a short dash on a low cooldown + stealth + a knockback/stun, her kit just leaves a lot of potential for big plays™

[QUOTE=GentlemanLexi;48818853]why is vayne still so fucking strong this vayne had literally no damage, a zeal and avarice blade she managed to 1 v 2 our alistar and jinx how the fuck is that fair[/QUOTE] her kit is so ass. There's a reason she's the most played champion for ever since she was like released.

[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;48819063]a short dash on a low cooldown + stealth + a knockback/stun, her kit just leaves a lot of potential for big plays™[/QUOTE] I wish riot would big play her into a ditch and bury her

wtf is your problem with Vayne, jesus christ

I dunno I think kalista is way more annoying than vayne.

kalista needs more than a single botrk to massacre your entire team.

I said annoying, because of her passive and such you know. There's more to a champion than just damage.

vayne is like the easiest way to spot when someone isnt a pro player like ourselves because she has a non existent laning phase and can dance around slower less mlg players who cant make good predictions or buy an upgraded trinket so they complain on forums about how OP she is [editline]4th October 2015[/editline] haha glad nobody here actually thinks vayne is op though that would be embarrassing

i'm glad they went with light vayne nerfs and light buffs to all the other adcs i'm seeing so much of how bad the game is right now but remember if it was season 2 they probably would've nerfed the shit out of vayne and left the other champs untouched

I don't know how about you guys but Riot's idea about Juggernauts seems to be flawed, in my opinion the only proper Juggernaut in the game is Sion, he's the definition of a durable fighter who deals damage but is pretty clumsy and every screw up he makes gets him punished for it, not to mention his skills can be interrupted or dodged easily, now compare that to Garen or Darius who can't make any mistakes. Now if other Juggernauts had similar approach, it would be fair for them to be damage sponges.

Are you kidding? Missing Qs as Darius is really fucking punishing and will get him killed. Garen's a little bit more branidead but he can still make some pretty big mistakes.

[QUOTE=Hammernipples;48820378]Are you kidding? Missing Qs as Darius is really fucking punishing and will get him killed. Garen's a little bit more branidead but he can still make some pretty big mistakes.[/QUOTE] Lmao you don't miss Q when you apprehend.

[QUOTE=Grindigo;48820389]Lmao you don't miss Q when you apprehend.[/QUOTE] I think he means miss as in miss with the blade

You may as well have missed your Q if you hit them with the handle because it doesn't do a lot of damage, doesn't apply your passive but most importantly doesn't heal you.

but tbh I hate the whole Juggernaut thing it's a waste of bans in ranked because then it's basically just a game without any Juggernauts and everything else is open but you gotta ban that shit there's always that one guy who just doesn't know how to deal with any Juggie

[QUOTE=Hammernipples;48820412]You may as well have missed your Q if you hit them with the handle because it doesn't do a lot of damage, doesn't apply your passive but most importantly doesn't heal you.[/QUOTE] Your Q CD is still 5 seconds when maxxed out, try to miss every Q then.

[QUOTE=Bridger;48820204]Omg yeah haha almost as bad as people believing she actually has a bad laning phase lololol xD[/QUOTE] explain to me in depth what makes vaynes laning phase good? and why she doesnt get shit on by any good support/adc combo of 2 actual players and not 2 potatoes [editline]4th October 2015[/editline] any lane with vayne in it that does well is literally going to be down to the support doing well, vayne cant 1v2 or do anything like that early game at all people like kog and cait can totally win the lane and zone both the adc and support etc, these are strong laners. You see where I am coming from when I say she has a shit lane? she has shit auto range and shit healthpool and her auto attack buff is on her "escape" [sp]its not even a dash its like 1 unit long and useless without ult but w/e lets call it an escape[/sp] she only wins against people who dont know how to trade and let her get free stacks on [editline]4th October 2015[/editline] oh no you made me type kinda seriously i guess you won this argument by proving that i actually know a little bit of what im "shitposting" about

oh, ok [editline]4th October 2015[/editline] i recall also losing to a vayne so i see where you're coming from honestly, i'll rethink this...

Good job?

lol you disregard everything and say "support carring vayne makes her op" which kinda proves you're bad...

[QUOTE=Louis;48820704]lol you disregard everything and say "support carring vayne makes her op" which kinda proves you're bad...[/QUOTE] I'm saying she doesn't have a bad early game because supports exist to buffer it, you're the only one thinking I'm pushing this idea she's OP And really, we're going to resort to silver league tier "You're bad"?

If you're bad you have a warped sense of what's good and not based on what you struggle as, its a valid thing to say. You literally implied that you thought vayne had a good laning phase because you were shitposting about how I said she had a bad laning phase. Why you tryin to sound smart and then messing it up :(

guys can we stop fighting and get to the real problem?? Why are there only 6 bans for a character roster this big?

[QUOTE=DJswitch;48820925]guys can we stop fighting and get to the real problem?? Why are there only 6 bans for a character roster this big?[/QUOTE] Because Rito I always ban Darius, Yi and Zed right now, kinda wish I could get two more bans especially if other teams bans are total bullshit.

[QUOTE=DJswitch;48820925]guys can we stop fighting and get to the real problem?? Why are there only 6 bans for a character roster this big?[/QUOTE] Eh you're right, his flaming was getting ridiculous anyways. Didn't riot say at some point they'd up it? the box for bans looks like it could handle at most 6 champs for each team, not to say we need that many bans though

[QUOTE=DJswitch;48820925]guys can we stop fighting and get to the real problem?? Why are there only 6 bans for a character roster this big?[/QUOTE] If you want an actual answer and not just a joke one, the reason is simple yet stupid. In all seriousness, Riot both as a whole and a majority of the teams surrounding pricing, bans, balance and the such (all Teams that affect champions and matchmaking) say that they don't want to up the ban amount from 3 to 4 or 5 despite the design allowing for up to 5 bans and the champion pool being so much larger ( I think literally almost doubled since 3 bans? ). Upping the ban amount means raising the amount of champions required from 16 to 18 or 20 respectively to accommodate but Riot doesn't want players to 'have to buy champions to play ranked at 30', even though the vast majority of players buy champions exclusively with IP, which is the main issue. Because they pride themselves on not being pay-to-win they have the IP system as an excuse but there exists the issue of IP Gating and the poor IP gains compared to the price of champions currently. They refuse to address IP issues and instead just leave it at 3 bans so people also can't ban all 10 of the superstar champions so Riot gets to see the Big Plays™ in pro matches, probably. tl;dr Riot doesn't want to be pay-to-win because more bans = more champs required, but people buy champs with IP and IP Gating exists
