If Yasuo is Jetstream Sam then we need a corresponding Raiden skin for Riven so we can have Metal Gear Rising: Rivengeance.

theflyingorc posted:Congratulations on discovering the hidden variable that I'm sure never occurred to Riot during his development at any point. Riot released Elise, and even after countless nerfs, she's still played a lot in pro games. They're generally decent enough at balancing newly released champs given time, but they're pretty bad at releasing things in a balanced state.

Goonnorms! I can't believe I beat a plat 3 Yasuo in lane as AD Nami. Literally everything he tried to do I countered hard. Windwall? E self, wait for it to go down, slow him and kite/chase him til' half hp. He hard engages on you? Bubble yourself, watch him flounder as you chop him to death with bubbles. Need to get a quick kill? Ult -> Bubble -> E -> ignite burst him to death. He tries to wittle you down using minions? Blue buff charged heal, loser! I wish we won, but Udyr got insanely fed and refused to die, so we lost  It was a good game though!

I had three kills on Nidalee at one point in that game and then Udyr just started catching me out and was 7-0 already so there was nothing to do. I always am surprised at how hard that guy can carry.

Udyr is a butt of a champion who is either easily kitable or impossible to escape from depending on whether or not he gets rolling. Rito please give him meaningful interactions that are not "run away from and occasionally shoot at".

Tonight was pretty rough in solo queue, after a few weeks of not really having that many problems. I was first pick, but I didn't want to argue with one of the other guys, so I agree to go mid instead of support. He picks Sona and gives up 3 immediate kills to their bottom lane, doesn't buy a ward at all (sweeping lens instead of ward trinket), and rushes deathcap and lichbane before getting a sightstone. I'll be the first to admit that I'm not a good player, but I'd like to think that I played serviceable enough that we could have won had this guy not trolled so hard. match stats

I'm not sure that's possible while retaining his infinitely appealing "4 self stat buffs" gameplay. The whole gunblade build thing is probably the only reason people haven't started playing the dude with a racing wheel.

Sona has good AP ratios and is constantly casting spells and auto-attacking. Maybe you should have helped and built a sightstone to help your team?

Because supports should get sightstone, like, immediately. The only thing I can see delaying your sightstone for is second tier support item or boots. I have no problem with them buying dcap or lich bane but I would always get them after sightstone, and only if I was already ahead. Oh, and I'd definitely get a Mikhael's against Morgana.

Well ok but I'm still a believer that every single hero in this game should get a fully upgraded sightstone. 3 wards x 5 = 15 wards!!! Holy poo poo that's a lot of wards! Its basically map hacking really

I feel like marginal utility of wards diminishes quickly past like 6-7 (two sightstones) or so. Not to mention that you won't be able to have enough map control to be able to place more than 10ish useful wards at once, and if you do, you're likely already winning the game anyway. Maybe I'm wrong.

In all honesty yeah, you really only need Sightstones on two members of the team - Jungler and Support. Everyone else can make do with trinkets and the occasional ward purchase.

Three games tonight where the opposing team refuses to report afkers/rage-quitters, actually defends them with poo poo like, "No need to report, everyone has a bad day". Funny how you never hear that when you're on the suffering team. People are poo poo.

Hey, I was queuing with one our diamond goons and he got mad at me missing CS as Tristana so he took it all as support Veigar and I built sightstone. We won that game.

Sure, it's probably incredibly blatant that you had a feeder on full-blast, but that doesn't stop people from getting offended at the possibility that their play had literally nothing to do with their victory. People don't put much thought into their video games.

Funny how you never hear that when you're on the suffering team. People are poo poo. If they afked or RQ for a while before the game ended they will be picked up automatically (name in red on the score screen). If they didn't, and I have no evidence that it wasn't just a DC 1 minute before we won anyway, then I'm not going to report them for that. I rarely report afk/DC for those reasons. It's only really relevant when someone afks for a long time and then comes back right at the end to avoid leaverbuster or if they just sit in the fountain moving occasionally.

People don't put much thought into their video games. Most of the report requests I see are because "they're really toxic" when the player has said nothing untoward in all chat. Ok, maybe they are really toxic but I have nothing to prove that other than your word and there's already 4 people able to report them who have seen what they were typing in allied chat. Intentional feeders are usually pretty obvious but again it's annoying to have people request that I report someone on the other side of the map for gameplay stuff I haven't actually been watching.

How did Rammus find his way back to the top of the win-rate charts? He was in this exact position several months ago and they specifically addressed and solved the issue by taking a third of the time off of his taunt.Bubble-T posted:If they afked or RQ for a while before the game ended they will be picked up automatically (name in red on the score screen).

Reporting comes down to reporting the person who you personally believe deserves to get banned on your own. Trying to sway other people is usually annoying and done way too often when things are ambiguous. Sometimes a reminder is okay. "Hey, report that obviously feeding dude. Thanks."

I will only ever ask for people to report someone if they went afk or ragequit but I should probably stop doing that honestly. I don't think it really accomplishes anything.

For context the guy was afk like 90% of the game but kept coming back. He was also 0/10 (Provided 1/3 of the kills to the opposing team). I know I'm being butthurt.

I'm probably a little biased but I feel that Vi is one of the best balanced champs in the game. She has clear strengths AND weaknesses, competitively viable (heh) at all levels from Bronze to Challenger and has plenty of creative freedom in her build pathing.
