If you haven't taken an inhibitor turret 25 minutes in and everyone's doing poorly better start buying those Zz'Rot Portals + Banner of Commands and just avoid the bots at all costs, because they will have become a roaming band of warriors that will CC-chain and delete you in 2 seconds. It basically is a lot like the best way to cheese the Doom Bots at that point.

Trip report for my fifth promo game to get into Gold and away from my friends. (Warning: long, boring, salty.)

http://matchhistory.oce.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/OC1/123345496/201183569

Two of my friends intentionally troll me by picking Nasus (the guy is a beast on Renekton and generally wins by dominating lane and rotating to camp the enemy mid laner, regardless of position) and mid Blitzcrank (Quite possibly the best Anivia player in Oceania, excellent mage player all around [when he isn't level 1 auto trading with a Corki], but when he really wants to lose, out comes full AP mid Blitz). Shen technically isn't a troll pick, but he basically never plays jungle, and this game demonstrates why, hard.

We get first blood by doing the classic invade through the red side blue buff, except what actually happens is their support Morgana tries to 1v1 our Sivir in the river and I (as Braum) walk down, Q her, and she dies. We then get their Ezreal in a similar dogpile since he'd already skilled Q, as well as Riven's flash as she fails to Q-hop over the river wall near mid. She later dies tower diving our Nasus.

Our Shen decides the best course of action 6 minutes into the game is to gank the 0/1 Riven who is trying and failing to starve Nasus, gifting Lee Sin the easiest double kill of his life. Lee then takes his level and gold advantage and sticks it up our rear end in bot lane.

Sivir proceeds to die in the stupidest ways possible for the rest of the game, including being solo killed by Morgana since he didn't know her ultimate applied a slow (???). Shen keeps ulting top to give Riven double kills so that the rest of us die 2v3 or 3v4. Twisted Fate teleports all over the map for farm while Riven and Lee Sin kill everyone and everything.

Their Morgana did more damage to champions than the three other non-Sivir champions on my team combined. I did more damage than Shen.

Also you need better friends. I'm Griddead on OCE; please add me and save me from my rageaholic one (my other LoL playing friend is pretty ok when he isn't making scathing remarks about how it's up to him to carry the game in every role).

Apparently there's a bug with her Q that causes her to literally fly in one direction until you cast another skill.

Jarvan IV
[NOTE: ricklessabandon describes these as experimental.]
Dragon Strike (Q) mana cost reduced to 40/45/50/55/60 from 45/50/55/60/65

Cataclysm (R)
Mana cost reduced to 100 at all ranks from 100/125/150
Now does damage to all enemies in the circle instead of only target.
Now plants a flag he can Q to in the middle of the circle.

Libertine: Jun 21, 2004; When I die, I hope they say I made the eSports industry a better place than I made millions of dollars.

How does that last proposal work? Does Jarvan just make a crater and have to then Q at it? Or does he still jump into the circle and then he could re-connect with the flag after?

It seems to be the latter, although I"m making that guess just from looking at the pictures of it on surrender.net

Edit: This would be a really big buff, by the way. It would allow you to R onto a champ and then immediately Q to the flag for a knockup without have to use your E, then you could E->Q when your Q comes back up to get out of the cataclysm.

Seems it's not quite as dramatic as I was told. She simply gets stuck in an animation which seems to limit her use of flash and maybe other abilities/items. There is a pretty hilarious interaction of her getting sent sky high from knock ups though.

I assume Dragonface Lionsun or whtaever his name is is one and the other is probably an existing champ getting a lore update. Let's say... Skarner since Crystal Scar is gone.

Oh, Taric isn't a bad guess either. More likely honestly.

assuming champions are in a champion class and the scuttle ms is only applied to entities tagged as champions then when kog switches modes it could be pretty possible someone just forgot to tag him properly so he is considered a minion.

i can think of a few other possible reasons but they're all equally stupid
