[QUOTE=Confuzzed Otto;50242250]Swifties[/QUOTE] Any particular reason?

Movement speed in combat so you can slap them Tenacity so you can slap them even more Edit: Apparently they don't have tenacity, but it has slow reduction so my point still stands [editline]2nd May 2016[/editline] Why are girls obsessed with Teemo? The only teemo mains I've seen since reaching high plat have all been girls

[QUOTE=Confuzzed Otto;50238867]Jhin is an incredibly crappy pick if you wanna play soloQ. He has a bad self peel and is risky - If you get a bad support you're pretty fucked. Same goes for other low self-reliant champs such as Ashe and Jinx [editline]2nd May 2016[/editline] He's still incredibly fun to play, especially when ahead though so even though he's a bad pick in that regard I still enjoy him way more than most other ADCs[/QUOTE] Lucian and Tristana are my go-to ADC's. Lucian is just flat out fun to play with the constant dashes and Tristana becomes pretty fun when you get the reset in teamfights.

[QUOTE=Rudevinny;50243249]I used to play Lucian a lot but then the tank meta got somewhat ridiculous and I started playing other champions so I wouldn't be such an one-trick pony. I should pick him up again some day.[/QUOTE] im pretty sure hes like the best solo q carry right now anyway

Honestly I feel like three man premades who cant be matched with 5 mans or 3 mans or 4 mans or w/e should be placed against randoms of a higher win rate than them. Like I played against a 3 man with all randoms who didnt type a single thing and of course they just fucking steam rolled us with much more organized gameplay since over half of the team was in voice chat.

[QUOTE=KillRay;50244760]im pretty sure hes like the best solo q carry right now anyway[/QUOTE] He's god tier along with Kalista if I recall correctly.

Kalista is pretty off the meta right now honestly.

Not really lol, Lucian and Kalista are the best when played by good players.

Purchased 15 euros worth of Riot Points again. Got myself yet another Coorporate Mundo and.. Brolaf. Nut bad.

u coulda just bought brolaf and not had a duplicate skin too [editline]3rd May 2016[/editline] I dont get the chest thing in LoL because skins are cheap as shit and most of them are completely wank, its cheaper to buy skins than gamble in the long run... It makes sense in Dota and CS where cosmetics can go upwards of hundreds/thousands of dollars.

It makes sense in Dota and CS where cosmetics can go upwards of hundreds/thousands of dollars.[/QUOTE] I've spent ~50 euros recently and what I've actually gained from Chests is around the same if not more. It's a gamble, you sometimes win ,you sometimes don't. I've got Vi/Rengar/Nami and Coorporate Mundo/Riot Kyle/The Magnificent Twisted Fate/Barbarian Sion/Bloodmoon Shen ( found out I have it perm in the Crafting thingy as I don't own Shen ) I also bought some Mystery Champions/Skins 50 euros (and it havent spent them on ONE account, but I am calculating as if I had) grant you 8250 RP. I've unlocked 2x Legendaries that's 3640, then there's Brolaf that I will unlock when I have the IP for the champion. So 5460 + Riot Kayle ( I did not get it for free so another 975 but lets say it was free) 2790 left. 3x 975 for champions 2925 2790-2925 = - Already won, that's with my bad math that might have some errors. I also got a cool Lunar Revel 2015 - Firecracker summoners icon!

Its great if you have literally nothing, but if you are like me and own every champion and a lot of skins all you get is dupes and useless items, like being able to actually get champions is awful. [editline]3rd May 2016[/editline] Mystery gifts were way cooler b/c you couldn't get dupes which meant I got a lot of exclusive skins b/c I own most that are already out, ended up getting all of poppys skins via that lmao

Ye I only have about 40 skins. hehe ... aw ;(

[url]http://oce.leagueoflegends.com/en/page/champion-reveal-taliyah-stoneweaver[/url] She looks pretty cool. I also like how she is weak to Malphite :v:

She looks boring

Her kit seems very... normal? Like, there's nothing new about her. Still, her art is pretty nice and she at least looks fun to play so I'll most likely still get her.

The only redeeming factor about her imo is that she reminds me of Toph from Avatar.

At least her knock-up and ult look kinda fun to use.

taric has a pretty uninventive kit too, but his skillset flows really well so idk

[QUOTE=rysunles;50250615]Her kit seems very... normal? Like, there's nothing new about her. Still, her art is pretty nice and she at least looks fun to play so I'll most likely still get her.[/QUOTE] Does every new champion have to be brand new and innovative? She looks like fun imo even if she isnt full of new gimmicks which is good if it stops her only played for a week and then dropped. [editline]3rd May 2016[/editline] Every time a new champion is revealed her its either "Same shit, a gapcloser... really riot :\" or "omg, that shit looks BUSTED!!!!!"

I felt dirty for picking Yi in a normal vs silvers, their salt was worth it though :v: (im shit at yi though please send help i wanna learn him)

Yes there is the "I play for fun, not to win" mentality but even then people tend to pick champions that are "in the meta" and "broken af" because that would mainly be their source of fun. Honestly I could care less about her kit as every other champion released lately have really overcharged kits. But the differential is what draws people to consistently play a champion, and I do not see one for her, maybe her ult yeah but still. Love her default and freljord skins tho.

Wow I just realized I'm going into a league tournament over the coming long weekend and it's gonna be on 6.9 fuck me this won't be easy

[QUOTE=Firecat;50250976]someday they will find the balance of fun to play, not op, and not terrible for the other people to play against either you got champs like zed that can be the first, yasuo maybe the first two, illaoi the last two, etc[/QUOTE] Maybe I'm weird, but I actually like facing Zed. Dodging skillshots and baiting poorly timed teleports is so entertaining, and the only reason I can see him being that big of an issue is his ult. Is Zed really that broken right now? I'd rather face him than Yasuo any day, and they both seem to have the same "snowball or become useless" playstyle that Rengar has.

If you believe new champions have to be made to one up existing champs we might as well just have a new champion pool every season, maybe she will fill a new niche that comes with upcoming changes? Idk, but almost everyone is wrong when it comes to judging champions as they're revealed and I just dont get how people are never seemingly happy.

This conversation just reminds me of how I haven't seen anyone play Illaoi after her release week

[QUOTE=WhySoSeriouz;50251809]This conversation just reminds me of how I haven't seen anyone play Illaoi after her release week[/QUOTE] I play her but because I have potato mechanics juggernauts work best for me. Her E changes sound like fun

Problem with Illaoi is that she only can start a fight somewhere. Once she has used her ult she's practically useless, seeing as it's limited to a relatively small circle.
