why hasn't Riot make a good representation of a fat nerd? There's Gragas, but his fat is clearly from heavy consumption of alcohol which is a very bad example to set for people. Also, nerds don't drink alcohol. (or at least, have friends to drink with)

Petition Riot to make a nice fat nerd that isn't a goon stereotype and is comfortable with his skin, whilst killing tentacle ladies and gentleman monsters. :)

Before they made it clear that they dont like auras I was kind of hoping for a valkyrie counterpart to Gragas; kinda like the cliche opera maiden, who would be a support initiator that could swap between shouting debuff auras or singing buff auras (kinda similar to release Jarvan, when he actually had good auras that made early teamfights super favorable)

I still miss old ult taric, rageblade + gunblade 40 second ults were hilarious

the modern nerd drinks craft brews and is either swole or has a dadbod, so gragas is a positive role model imo

Maokai and Malphite are always good picks on literally any team and are easy as gently caress to play.

I would add Gragas too because he has sustain, is pretty easy to play and can cs at range with barrels if you are getting zoned

Garen is really easy to play, has good sustain, and is pretty strong top. He's boring as hell, but I mean, if you're looking to learn top you can't really go wrong with him.

I always forget Garen is even a champion, he probably does extremely well against FotM picks like Ekko because silence effects are completely busted. Same reason Cho is good ^^

I like the champions you play, and also that you build Mejais and never die

Corrupting potion -> Dark seal (-> Mejai's if you're doing well) is basically mandatory on all AP tanks right now. It's super good on Ekko (also on e.g. Maokai), and the movement speed boost on a 15+ stack Mejai's is incredible.

Yeah Garen is great against most melee champions except for Darius and Trundle, and can easily carry games through splitpushing (he's much better in 1v2s than teamfights, and his passive tends to shut down the strongest player on the other team which is amazing in soloq). You need to have 2 champions in your pocket though because he has a pretty awful time if he gets counterpicked.

Based on the way a lot of other particle effects/stealth interactions have worked, I'd wager that enemy players can see Taric cast Bastion, but no target (and no visible tether). Dazzle and Ult cues would likely be similarly hidden. Obviously this is pending testing, but Stealth in the past has hidden many particle effects.

Grats man. For a moment after the Ezreal steal I kinda got worried but I'm glad you guys turned around. Your team always had the gold advantage even when you were some kills behind.

They give you any reason for killing it? I know Merrill back in the Faker spectate bot stream fiasco didn't like the idea of people e-stalking or whatever and something something harassment if they had their IGN but I'm pretty sure in response you removed the names of the players in any given game or they didn't show anymore.

That sucks but I'm sure that is but a tiny dent in your massive pile of money that you make from being a robot or whatever you are
