Pretty sure that has always been the consensus about XDG. Zuna plays bad way more than good and some of the games (vs C9) Zuna was the reason they lost.

Zuna is not good with lucian. Granted, the only carry I remember him being remotely good on is tristana. They should go grab robertxlee.

Gambit pretty sloppy overall so far, Darien proving that you need to camp him to keep him down yet again and Edward on point with ults + teamfight synergy more than making up for their early derpage.

I wonder why people talk about Vulcun throwing to C9 but not C9 throwing to Vulcun that one game. Hell, if I remember correctly the throw was Sneaky arcane shifting forward randomly and just losing C9 the game.

I love Edward so much.quote:Gambit pretty sloppy overall so far, Darien proving that you need to camp him to keep him down yet again and Edward on point with ults + teamfight synergy more than making up for their early derpage. Also pretty sure they didn't care much about early game because its snowball potential has been nerfed, they were just waiting for midgame power spikes and Amumu ult etc.

Very very convincing win, they hardly lost a single member in any teamfight. And they did it all with cool hats!

Have any teams even bothered taking traditional supports in S4? I can't remember. I know there's been a lot of Annie/Thresh/Taric because they're playing on 3.14, but I'm just wondering if the general consensus is "why do we want a squishy rear end Sona ult when instead we can get a tanky support or a mage with damage". Actually I'm wondering why we haven't seen Zyra support more, since she obviously scales well with items too. edit: and by traditional supports I mean like, sona/lulu/nami type champions who have utility on all their buttons but no damage or tankiness.

Because the side effect of giving everyone more damage is that squishy, less mobile champions are more likely to explode before dropping their whole damage. mushi posted:edit: and by traditional supports I mean like, sona/lulu/nami type champions who have utility on all their buttons but no damage or tankiness. Nami and Lulu have more damage than you seem to think, when they get items. curiousCat fucked around with this message at 21:19 on Dec 21, 2013 |

They poo poo on the base numbers of the traditional supports because riot wants them to have 100+ ap in midgame.

So I just got back and what is the first thing I hear? Amumu support. Thanks Gambit, finally somebody with some imagination. Also thanks for ruining SoloQ for a week... mushi posted:Have any teams even bothered taking traditional supports in S4? I can't remember.

Sona and Lulu are common picks. Utility is not something that should be unappreciated.

Flameingblack posted:Because while C9 stayed on top of LCS the entire season, there were a lot of games where Vulcun was easily better than C9 but threw so hard because Zuna is an idiot. And he's an idiot in a lot of games. I don't think you can really blame Vulcun throwing on one person. It's definitely a team effort.

Flameingblack posted:Any game where Zuna wasn't on Tristana there was a 70% chance he was going to just walk straight into the enemy head first. He's got bad positioning, tunnel vision, and blood lust and has a terrible habit of dying first without his team ready to back him up. That's not a quality you need on an ADC. Even on Trist he was terrible. There was a game where he was level 18 trist standing in baron pit with W available, plenty of space to maneuver during a teamfight AAing a tank and he just let Ashe walk up from below and AA him to death, an incredible lack of situational awareness. Vulcun's performance last split is a testament to how good the rest of the team is, especially Xmithie and Bloodwater because they had to carry the poo poo out of Zuna.
