I think Krepo is marginally better than Nyph in that he actually tries to do things but the execution is kind of lacking. Elements is still hosed either way. At least they have MYM to take the Auto-Relegation spot though! (And Origen will probably get auto-promotion so they won't have to play xPeke and co)

SK also remembered to ward this game, it seemed like they had much more vision on the map. Maybe they're starting to shore up their weak spot too?

She's been strong for several patches. Diamond is the only LCS jungler open-minded enough to play her (unless Meteos does this weekend). I feel like Diamond has always been one of the only junglers to actually test and innovate jungle picks and that's why I've always liked him.

The meta doesn't seem very fond of a jungler who doesn't do much during laning.

Sexpansion posted:You know, Diamond may not be the dominant player he once was, but he's been good for a remarkably long time. I agree, and I feel like Diamond is a hard player to rate. When Moscow 5 was on, they were loving on and everyone looked great. Then Darien stopped giving a poo poo, then Genja after him. It's tough to be a jungler with two middling at best lanes. Then Alex Ich left and Gambit had to go through all those roster changes (including that support that Sona E'd his hiding-in-a-bush jungler to ruin a massive gank), and even through all that, Diamond has been good. I feel like if he got on a more stable team, especially with the fact that he knows a good amount of English, he'd be a pretty great player again.

Hypocrisy posted:The meta doesn't seem very fond of a jungler who doesn't do much during laning. Are you talking about Lee Sin? (Only half joking) At the competitive level given the current jungle it doesn't seem like any jungler does a lot during laning which is why I think playing strong team-fighters and just waiting out early laning is a better bet overall. First bloods tend to happen from massive team-coordinated dives and resource commitments including the jungle but not created by the jungler. You rarely see just plain out Level 3 clean ganks resulting in early 2v1 kills. Most teams have the vision to prevent those plays from being made. Is this game being played on the current 5.4 patch? Because I'm curious to see if the jungle meta shifts at all when the J4 nerfs come through. He's basically the last jungler in the entire roster who has a strong early game. I find Lee Sin to be really unimpressive and unworthy of pick priority given his current numbers and the way the current jungle plays out.

He's basically the last jungler in the entire roster who has a strong early game. 5.3 still. I totally agree that early ganking junglers seem to be going away, although from the last couple weeks of games, both LCS and LCK, that I've watched, Rek'sai seems to be bucking that trend and coming up with a ton of early kills. Edit: If I were an LCS team right now, Kalista would be on perma-ban status. Sexpansion fucked around with this message at 22:13 on Feb 27, 2015 |

The jungler is constantly levels below even the botlane, and does so little because they have no HP, and need to spend gold on pots and vision, that there's not much harm in picking a jungler that scales heavily. Sej also does a deceptive amount of damage early. Also we should get nerfed J4 in about a week I think. e: that being said, J4's nerfs don't do poo poo to his early game.

I don't like Morgana toplane at all. Her cooldowns are too long, and while game-changing ults are possible, way too many champs have easy escapes out. Sure, if you hit every Q you do bonkers damage, but if you miss it's like a 7 second cooldown at 40% CDR. I'd much prefer her in the support position where you still get Black Shield and have a better toplaner. Am I super off on that?

Who would you rather have as a toplaner? Maybe Gnar? Maokai? Those are the only ones I would prefer, and in some comps I'd rather have Morg.

Ranged aoe waveclear + sustain from her passive lets her sit in lane forever. Q+E+R makes diving her extremely risky.

Coming back to that Baron, because that was utterly TERRIBLE from Roccat. Gambit leaves the baron area, starts recalling, Roccat sits around doing nothing for a few moments, then starts recalling all at once when Gambit has already left their base. "No massive mistakes" my rear end. E: What I'm taking away from Roccat's games this split is that they desperately need a new coach. Aumanor fucked around with this message at 22:30 on Feb 27, 2015 |

Sej also does a deceptive amount of damage early. I think losing an entire rune-set worth of armor from his flag will actually hurt his early game considerably because he won't have nearly as much health after his clear to make plays.

The lane swap and improving her R in teamfights compared to support Morg. Easier to make riskier R plays when you have gold for an hourglass and some tankiness. But yeah, laneswap resilience is pretty huge.

This is true, but he did get a minor level 1 armor upgrade to compensate, so it's not THAT bad. I think you will be able to max W instead, which some soloqueue junglers have done for awhile anyways, and it won't hurt him too much. But it's definitely a nerf.
