last night i was playing maokai and i went for a level 2 all in on someone who was playing kinda stupidly when i had the wave pushing and got his flash out so i said to my jungler "well this guy has no flash you can gank him if you want. if not thats cool too, but im gonna assume you got a small ween"

anyways he came top immediately and we killed the guy and i got stupid fed that game. gotta mindgame those junglers into doing the thing sometimes.

i had some dude add me back when morde botlane was a thing, i think i was supporting him on soraka or something and we steamrolled the enemy lane

we did another game after where someone else got adc first and he'd already locked in morde so he went top, fed, and then ragequit at like 10 minutes and i've never played with him again

That's huge enough as far as statistics is concerned. Even if Swain's true winrate were "only" 58%, the probability of winning 60% of 3000 games would still be only about 1%. Even if you factor in a bit of extra wiggle room from multiple testing, it's still enough to safely say that Swain is op as heck.

I had a couple of games against Swain where even when he was kept down he came back in the mid game and just ruined us in teamfights. Ice belt is loving obnoxious on him because he can close in on targets, get down his root, ult and sustain forever because the ice belt still has that Eternity passive like a RoA.

Also I am not surprised that Taliyah has a low win rate. Like I said in an earlier post, her mana costs are loving massive and they all increase as the abilities are leveled. This is another case where I love the character design and idea but I am not sure where she can fit into the meta because she is kind of a sustain damage mage with utility who cannot really go top. If her mana costs get bumped down she might be able to support? I wish jungle worked for her because that ult is perfect for catching people out or blocking off the enemy from objectives.

Most of the Zeds I meet are chill as gently caress, despite the stereotype. Rivens are less flamers and more tiltlords in my experience. Luxes are just absolute garbage people, with the aforementioned exception of LilyPichu.

...And now that I think about it, she's in a relationship with Hotshot of all people, so she has to be awful on some level.

Lucky rolls in chests.

When you open a chest, you have a chance to get a champion shard, skin shard, ward shard, or essence. If you get the champion shard of the champ you want to upgrade your mastery on, you're good and all you need is the tokens you get from the S rank. If you get a champion shard of any other champion, you can disenchant that shard for blue essence.

Riot has said that they'll implement a thing in the shop where you can just buy random champion shards, but I don't know if that's available yet.

You get a champion shards from chests. Champion shards can be disenchanted into blue essence, like skin shards can be disenchanted into orange essence.

Cat of Wealth and Taste

It is a sham, and a scam, since they didn't implement the IP buy thing but released it with an RP-alternative available.

I've opened like 5 boxes with the keys I've gotten through play and never gotten a single champion shard, and I got my two S-ranks on Janna this morning, so those tokens are just gonna sit there until they give the IP buyable item. Kinda sad.
