To further talk about my last post if you are low enough on the ladder that people still don't know how to play off Thresh, you're either wasting your time playing something that your dumb teammates won't get or the plays you're attempting to make are really bad ones

so it turns out riot bought radiant entertainment (rising thunder and stonehearth) and are shutting down rising thunder development for whatever other game riot has been working on.

Re: Thresh chat, the problem with him at low ELOs is that a lot of people play him like Diet Blitzcrank. They think his hook is the part of his kit that makes him strong, but like someone else said it's the lantern. It's also compounded in that for some reason Thresh is seen as the "I don't ever play support but I got stuck with it so I'll choose Thresh' mentality that is very common.

okay, so here's my idea for aurelion jungle

build runic echoes on him, this will give him extra boosted initiation with his Q and make it hit like a truck, and also more movespeed

then build dead man's plate and mob boots on him, and watch him zoom around the map setting up sick Qs with his massive movespeed bonuses and tankiness

What'll be awesome is to set up super ganks by hitting max e stacks, firing Q, then using E active to follow it into the lane for the MASSIVE DAMAGE

No you don't, you just click behind you. There are very few skills that facing matters on in League (Corki, Rumble, and for enemies Cassio)

I absolutely hate playing Corki and Rumble for this very reason. The frontal cone abilities feel so utterly poo poo to use in a game like this.

Cassio's ult would be great in Other Game where turn speed is a thing but it isn't so it's a bit of a coinflip most of the time especially against ADCs who are a-moving constantly. It's really good against dashes, though.

Rumble has a really cool and unique mechanic but his kit feels disjointed like a lot of old kits do before reworks.

It's really weird to me that Rumble can be considered an old champion. His release feels fairly recent to me for some reason.

He has two skins and they're both excellent. He has a 100% great skin ratio, unlike every single other character in the game.

Caterpillar is kinda bad since it's both a straight recolor and a straight downgrade to one of his best skins, but I'll concede that point. Rumble gets second place.

Sonoran's also pretty bad, but Fireworkmaw can make up for a lot.

Imo corki is pretty solid, except for Red Baron. Heimer also has a bunch of really solid skins.

E: although snow day bard is the best skin in the game and bard is the best aesthetics of any champ so he of course wins overall.
