That talon E is pretty neat. You already had to deal with a similar thing with Bard, so it's not entirely new. I really like the idea that the cooldown applies to specific terrain, not just the ability. More things that work on target-based cooldowns would be good, imo.

ArbitraryC posted:I can sort of see the argument that given time for infinite scaling nasus's q should be a better execute than smite but there's really no reason not to have both. Plus since he isn't laning and can't just splitpush forever i imagine he won't stack the q that fast. You need smite to get gromp bonus, which is essential for a tank, and raptor bonus, which is also absolutely essential to get often as a jungler. It's a horrible idea.

Most of the builds I'm looking at now on probuilds seems to be laning sin e none of them take the jungling items or smite

Again, if you don't take smite, you won't get any jungle items which means you won't get any bonus XP or health regeneration and you're completely hosed early-mid game. Always, always take smite if you're jungling. There's no way to jungle without it.

Also you need Smite to finish off potentially contested Drakes/Baron and as stated it's dumb af not to take it when jungling

and you can't buy the jungle items without smite so you will never be a factor in any game

nasus jungle was extremely good for a while before his wither got gutted. now he is a sad dog whose utility no longer justifies him in the slot. even back then he took smite though

He was a good jungler because he could solo drake and his wither was disgustingly overpowered at the time and would work better than exhaust. There's a handful of champions that can solo drake now without giving up any early game pressure

Gripen5 posted:Tell me more. I am willing to give this a try. Is the full sheen item Lich Bane (for +AP) or still Trinity? Do you then build tanky? Does being AP make crit less useful? Do you even bother with Tiamat? Boot recommendation (magic pen, swiftness, mobis?)? Is this worth screwing around with before the patch drops (seems like a "hell yes")? Lichbane yes, dont bother with tiamat personally, and the main "tanky" items i get are protobelt to make the burst combo meaner and liandrys for the burn Its a bit of a squishy build but AP Shaco has a fundamentally different role than AD Shaco in that AP Shaco is very much a hit and run champ, you want to poke and annoy with your E until you see an opening and take it You are not as good at split pushing, so instead you have to be everywhere on the map at once, an easy thing with mob boots and two of those movespeed boosting AP items

nasus jungle is viable right now, 3 points in E then max Q, red smite runic echoes -> protobelt or gunblade -> ap health items

Apparently I landed an "IMPOSSIBLE" Lux R on some dipshit Renekton in ARAM and am therefore scripting. And should kill myself. Good thing that telling someone to kill themselves is a surefire way to get banned from video games, just ask The Mittani.

Lux is a surprisingly fun champion to play I gotta say, she was one of my picks in my quest for boxes but I ended up really liking her as a pick in norms. Her kit has a lot of fun stuff in it and her passive makes for a unique playstyle. Also sniping the adc over and over again with your ult like an rear end in a top hat.

apparently my theory that if you have a fully stacked mejajs, you get an instant s is wrong. you can walk off with only three deaths and 24 assists and still only get an a. whatever!!!

I know it's kind of in the middle of off hours for basically everyone except SEA, but I should not be having this much trouble finding a solo queue normal draft, even queueing top/mid with a last game support guarantee. E: It was around 50 minutes of queueing total with one restart at 20 minutes before I got a game. Bitch on the internet, solves everything.

Firebert posted:Sejuani early clears gonna be real lovely with single monster camps/no gromp buff I can't imagine tank junglers are going to fare well with the loss of gromp buff and single target buffs that are more punishing if stolen without 50% of the exp being in the two little guys.

The thing that confuses me the most is that previously more exp was put into the little guys specifically to avoid one jungler snowballing and the other helplessly falling behind.

Third game in a row that I lost because "push mid and finish". Guess what, you cannot finish the game if all 5 of them are waiting there and our teamfights are dodgy at best.

Somewhat interesting admission by Meddler:quote:Both Kalista and Azir are representative of a period where in hindsight I think we tunnel visioned too much on uniqueness at the expense of some aspects of game health (overloaded kits) and skill floors. That's resulted in some champs who have really cool stuff on their kits, but have been challenges to balance for regular play versus top tier play. My take is that there are solid concepts there, but that the execution on them needs some work (reducing unnecessary strengths primarily, and putting that power into other parts of the kit, giving clearer weaknesses to play around). I assume Yasuo fits into this, as well. I'm glad that they've been toning it down with recent releases like Yorick and Ivern, where they have unique mechanics without going completely overboard on what they can do, but it makes me wonder how they'll "fix" Kalista/Azir without losing whatever people enjoyed about them.
