LOVES THE KOG


Just learn to play ADC, where soon all damage and abilities are impossible to itemize against. Eventually it will never even occur to you that you can build survivability

What champions make you guys mad? Foe me it's Soraka, Voli, and Yi.

Yasuo, Master Yi and Zed because it feels like they always get fed and get out of control.

Tryndamere because the perma splitpush is annoying as hell to play against.

The Verviticus Buff posted:

Rift Herald will now spawn six minutes into the game, but it will never respawn once it has been killed. It will be much harder to kill, but its new buff should be worth the effort. It’s current buff, Doom’s Eve, has been replaced with a unique buff that lasts for 20 minutes and persists through death. When the person with the buff is alone, they gain damage reduction against champions and also build Corruption stacks. At 100 stacks, your next attack discharges all the stacks to deal bonus magic damage. The Corruption’s stack rate and damage scale with champion level.

Shyvana is secretly a Master Yi who actually ganks less but also doesn't kill towers as fast and I hate her with my life.

Yeah I actually cringe whenever I see a Shyv on the other team, what an annoying champ.

I can't stand Soraka because she is just annoying as gently caress to play against.

Yi is the best champ tho

I don't like Thresh, I have a magnet on my for his hooks, they hit me no matter what, even if I juke or stay in the same place

I am this way with Yasuo, for some reason whenever I'm laning against a Yasuo I walk into whirlwind100% of the time. It's not even a hard skillshot to dodge, idk what my problem is.

basically just exploit his stun's range indicator being invisible if they cant see you to the fullest maximum potential

Funnily enough this isn't actually true because Sion has really crappy base HP growth to offset his hp stacking passive. He'd actually be surprisingly squishy on a supports budget.

This. Sion is middle-of-the-pack for base HP at level 1, but his HP/level growth is 4th worst, with his base 18 pool ending up at 10th worst across all champions (he actually has fewer base HP at 18 than Sona).

Sion's extra bulk comes almost exclusively from the fact that he likes to build defensively/bulky and that in a solo lane he'll get enough CS to more than supplement his growths (perfect CS at 20 minutes starting with Soul Furnace still doesn't even get him to highest "base", and not maintaining perfection drives him down the list).

soraka was good before grievous wounds was gutted and shell be good after its back. especially since itll mean a return to everybody going apeshit and slotting ignite when they see her, which tends to ruin a teams late game potential (less teleport and exhaust, the two summoner spells with the best scaling)

mortal reminder is going to suck tho thats a real change over season five at least
