Today in a tourney match I solo killed a s5 Masters Ahri with cleanse Lux at level 4. Then went 4-6 while they went 9-1, but poo poo, I had my moment of glory.Zerilan posted:These are the kinds of games that make me real tempted to pick up Bard and then probably gently caress over my team continuously with bad ults. He actually doesn't have that high of a skill floor if you don't get too ambitious with him -- basic picks/tower dive etc. ultis are pretty straightforward, but when you do it in teamfights/cross-map/defensively poo poo gets dicey. He's incredibly satisfying to play and learn -- he's the only champ I've actually gotten to mastery 5 on, and it's impossible to feel bad even in losing games, cuz you're Bard. So much stuff to learn!

Christ, exhaust/smite shyv is disgusting. Two 16 minute sated games in a row (against nidalee/volibear). No one can run from you, no one can kill you, and you take out 3/4ths of a kog'maw's health in one q with titanic hydra active.

RealFoxy posted:she snuck back into the game after being hurt pretty badly after the "we hate the smite/top meta" nerfs. She's strong again by proxy of Riot never wanting more than three or four junglers to be viable per patch so they all get nerfed. I played against a jungle Shyvana last night who absolutely wrecked my whole team but we had an AFK ADC so I couldn't really tell if the pick was good again or if it was just one of those games.

ahahahaha this game i didn't really know that i was doing ranked games until i got a promotion to silver (yes i am a bad) and this streamer in my promotion game starts linking his poo poo in chat so i tell him, "please don't tilt, streamers always tilt when they do ranked and link it in chat" sure enough, he tilts, and we had an undeniably chinese (and probably didn't understand a lick of english) adc that he was trying his damnedest to support dear lord it was amazing

I've only played against ~3 jungle shyvs. Every single one of them crushed us. Naturally the one that I had on my own team afked after 10 minutes.

i bet runic echoes shyvana would be really funny, if only burnout scaled with ap

She's the second highest winrate behind Udyr right now for jg. She's overall very, very good but she doesn't gank very much before 6 since her duty is to get Devourer asap and farm it fully. I'd say she's second only to nunu in getting jungle objectives and she scales very well to the endgame so she's always viable, just watch for the commonly picked adc these days named Ezreal whose kit makes it very hard for Shyv to do her job. Source: I play her and jungle trundle a lot.

What item is broken that makes Shyvana good again? That's pretty much always the question.

I would argue its her kit. You just stack attack speed on her, rush devourer, titanic hydra and swifties and you've got yourself a stomp.

# ? Feb 22, 2016 20:31 |

patch after patch her winrate has been pretty high honestly. doing the fast 6 clear lets you get into the game a lot sooner too.

Shyv gets passive extra armor and flying out of the jungle at these double/triple AD comps makes it real nice post 6, especially with how quick she gets sated.

I think this is a big part of it. Also, tanks are just really good in soloqueue right now because of the nerfs to LW, and Shyv gets tanky as hell after finishing devourer.

AA -> Q -> AA should be a quick 6 stacks of Fervor against a champ, with some Burnout or whatever she'd hit 8 Fervor stacks nearly instantly, I think.

Except she would probably take strength of ages for the extra 300 HP, titanic damage and massive sustain, not going to stack to 8 if she melts too fast or lacks the tenacity.

I literally can't bring myself to play league. I open up the client, hit launch, sometimes get as far as champ select, before I go ugh what am I thinking? and close the window. I've done this three times today.

This incarnation of Kog is the dumbest thing to come to bot lane since Morde (though Graves pre-nerf was close) Don't have to win lane, just let the 0/3 adc easily duel anyone on the opposing team to catch up

Riot reworked Kog to the point that he can't be balanced. Good work Riot. But at least now we no longer have old Kog, whose kit was too generic, which is definitely the reason he got reworked. Sure.
