I have been theorizing whether or not taking AS reds and quints on Karma for toplane would be good. Part of what makes her so strong is constant auto attack harass and resetting Mantra but her base AS is atrocious and makes last hitting almost impossible. After accidentally taking an AS rune page on her she felt much more effective in bullying than with bread and butter MPen

your late game presence is nil either way so you might as well go for the maximum performance in lane

Taric rework passive!

Slow and Steady

Taric's basic attacks to an enemy champion reduces their armor by 12% for 6 seconds, stacking up to 4 times. Basic attacks against enemy champions with 4 stacks cause the attack to reverberate, dealing bonus physical damage on hit to the target and nearby enemy champions, and applying maximum stacks to all enemy champions within the area of effect.

Taric's attack speed cannot be improved except through growth.

that's the idea! instead of just being ghetto Lulu you get to also get to channel your inner Teemo and make the enemy miserable for 15 minutes.

Just got a League survey asking about familiarity with all the factions of League, a little quiz on which champs are associated with which factions, and then a bunch of questions about how much you care about the lore and story of a specific set of champs:

Pantheon
Leona
TF
Sion
Nasus
Evelynn
Kalista

Potentially up for lore reworks and/or full reworks?

(Also questions about visiting various websites and music stuff.)

All those characters except maybe Kalisa got lore rewworks or updates already I think. Maybe Kalista did too and I just didn't hear about it because gently caress the lore.

When games go that long though, just one person getting picked off will lose you the game. Gold advantage doesn't mean poo poo if everyone has full build anyway.

I've also never been a fun of selling your boots to go for a full 6 item build, but maybe adc mains can tell me I'm wrong. I feel like mobility is just too important on an adc with so many people gunning for you.

On ADC super late game it's arguably better to have another defensive tool or more raw dps because you the movespeed of boots isn't enough. If your main problem is the enemy mid flash combo kills you instantly, boots probably aren't the answer.

Have they ever said anything about making Trundles ult look more impactful? Even when I'm playing him there are times I feel like I barely notice it being used and whenever I'm playing against him it's hard as hell to notice it going off in a teamfight. I'm not expecting a neon glow or anything but it just kinda blends too much.

I always notice it's up because when it is I win every duel I fight.

I did it. I finally officially stroked out last night and started full on ranting at people in chat. The nominal trigger? Playing jungle, going bot specifically to hold lane (which was pushed up to tower) to allow a 5% health Draven to back. Pinging back, over and over. Having him sit around for 30 seconds to "get some XP." Having him walk too far forward, and get blasted with a Sona chord. Having him then claim it was "worth for the XP."

The real trigger? I hate everyone who loving plays this game. (Except for all of you, you are all cool.)

This is my confession of guilt. I need absolution.

Say 40 Our Fair Lady Teemos upon your knees in a forest of shrooms and you will be absolved my son.

When I'm playing a tank and get quicksilver against trundle, I find I need to look for the debuff icon and sound effect because the visuals, aside from the shift in health, is hard to notice.

If they wanted high visibility a fiddlestick style green line curving from trundle to his target would be ideal.

I had a midlane Karma in my game today who arguably was the most useful person on our team late in the game because he realized that there is no situation ever where you shouldn't mantra E as Karma in late game teamfights. Granted, you need enough damage from elsewhere to make it work but Karma is really OP atm. Mantra E shielded our Vayne for half of his max health.

To prevent them from crashing waves into your tower you can either match their sunfire, buy a ZZrot, or buy a tiamat. All of those items are OK on Trundle, but personally I'd get a tiamat and sit on it as it lets you counter the strategy with the least gold investment.

Keep in mind that on Trundle trades that initially look like you lost tend to swing around to a significant advantage as long as you disengage in time, because of Trundle's passive.

Alright thanks for the tips, I'll try that next time!

Calling Braum Merv is pretty on point I reckon.

Now that people have learned to play Jhin I really do not like seeing him in games. I guess if he didn't have a 2500 range morgana binding I wouldn't mind him but no one at bronze/silver can dodge so that is a death sentence come late game.

New things are out on the NA stuff. If you like surprises, go play ARAM or Blind Pick.

Chest update: Got the Aurelion Sol champion but the rate at which you get chests/key fragments and then the random chance of getting Blue essence/Champions it will probably take months to get this free champion, in which I could literally just have bought him with IP since there's only about six champions I don't own.
