I'm just a total piece of shit and I'm not sure why I keep posting on this site. Christ, I have spent years with idiots giving me bad advice about online dating and haven't noticed that the thread I'm in selects for people that can't talk to people worth a damn.

I'm gonna tell you guys what Elo Hell truly is.

Imagine if you will a player against whom you can't win no matter the circumstances.

As bad as I am I've won some matches against the bad LCS teams that come from my country in 3s and 5s so theoretically there shouldn't be a lot of people capable of giving me a 0% win rate in this God forsaken server.

But there is this one guy and since he started playing it's been absolutely impossible winning any match whatsoever against him no matter which one of his teams he's playing. And almost every match for the past 3 months has been against him.

8 PM thursday on your Diamond team? His #1 team that is 500 points above the #2.
Been on a hiatus for 2 weeks and my friend ask me to play on a new team 9 am saturday? His smurf team.
Overwatch beta's over so your friends finally ask you out to play LoL again? You bet you're not winning today.
Any time whatsoever, any day whatsoever? This motherfucker.

The top 1 solo queue player with his challenger friends present not a lot of challenge, but this guy and his 2 platinum buddies he's carrying on his smurf team? Pretty much impossible.

I'm trapped in my own personal hell. Please send help.

Edit: Apparently from people who talked to him he claims to be a smurf neither from BR nor from NA.

If this happens they'll have to dramatically reduce the time for regen because otherwise it's really really bad.

yeah that's kinda what i thought, it defeats the purpose of it being the siege/poke dragon. i feel like the best way to balance it is to have the regen % scale with level, so that it's at its current values lategame but doesn't just automatically win laning for you if you get it early.

Ah, just read up on the potential change.
restores 4/8/12% of missing health and mana every 5 seconds if not damage by champions within 5 seconds.] from [Restore 10% missing HP and MP every 24/12/8 seconds.

That's a good change, it frankly felt unfair to any champs reliant on poking someone down before engaging, or counting on that person to ever run out of mana at any point in the game, especially if you had anything to increase your health or mana pools for giant 400 HP heals during fights or 200 mana restores when dry.

I got to finally play Malzahar for the first time since his rework and his passive is probably one of the most broken things in the entire game. Shrugging off CC and 90% damage reduction is incredibly loving crazy.

Holy poo poo Bard is the best. Was doing a PvP match and the enemy got in to our base about 10-15 minutes before it ended. Through a bunch of luck and bullshit teleporting I held three dudes off while the rest of the team snuck around and managed to snag a win.

What's your build order? I used to rush Rylai's after FQC but champion.gg is saying go for Liandries first. Not sure if any of the new items really do much for her, or where to get the best CDR for your buck on her anymore.

Resistances are usually better for people with shields, but I haven't played on the new patch enough to know how good the new RoA is. Also, getting a stronger jump in power with other items is probably better for an assassin like Diana.

Still it was funny as hell. Also blocking her charged Q.

That all being said though in all sincerity, once you take away the very powerful passive, he is more or less the same guy, though the W feels odd. His ult seems to be on a lower CD too.

Builds are always situational, but this is what I do the vast majority of the time:

First 3 items (in whatever order you feel you need them)
-Frostfang
-Sorc Shoes
-Sightstone

Rylai's + Liandry's combo in 99% of games. I typically buy a Haunting Guise first and then go for Rylai's for some extra peeling ability before finishing Liandry's.

When you run out of item slots, combine the Frostfang + Sightstone into Eye of the Watchers. Eye is much more gold efficient than FQC; only reason I would get FQC is if I really need the active for some reason. Plus, you get an extra item slot.

Your core for the vast majority of games is Rylai's, Liandry's, Eye of the Watchers, and Sorc Shoes. The last 2 slots are situational:

-Morello's if they have Soraka/Vladimir or other big time heal dudes
-Void Staff is going to be your best raw damage item most of the time
-Banner of Command if your teem needs an Aegis
-Zhonya's if you need tankiness and can make good use of the active.
