For example you can take the 1 minute cool down exhaust that gives you free gold, or you can lose lane. The options are dizzying.

This is true, League of Legends *is* a series of escalating 1v1 duels culminating in no central strategy.

If we're actually doing this, my reply to the dude lamenting seeing Smite/TP on two top laners was to point out that for a solid year we were seeing literally nothing but Flash/TP on two top laners, and Ignite/Flash for a solid year before that. At least now you can pick someone like Maokai or Lulu who get more from Flash or strong lane pushers who benefit from Smite. Summoner variety's still lovely obviously, but baby steps i guess :v:

It's not like Hercarim or Shyvana needed flash anyway. They're both high mobility and have a distance closer on an ultimate. Hecarim mid goes Ignite/teleport and Season 2/3 Shyvana in the Jungle went Smite/Exhaust.

Nrated is quite good at the peel style of playing support generally. But the thing about Vayne is she makes it easier for her team to do stuff because everyone spends fights chasing the Vayne.

He isn't very flashy but he's a good disengage support as opposed to someone like Aphromoo, people don't notice supports often unless they're making flash engages from out of nowhere. nRated is fine, I think people started dogpiling onto him when forgiven said he didn't like him.

What separates him from Lustboy or Mata is that nRated doesn't play the vision control game hardly at all. SK's strategy the whole split was only ward around the objective you'll be going for in the next 2-3 minutes.

Wow... Rumble actually got through and was picked for once.

I know this isn't a big thing, but it seems like Rumble is either Pick or Ban no matter what if the top laner plays that sucker.

Maybe in NA, but in EU nobody plays him that often other than Huni.
