Redmark posted:For Malphite ultimate (and probably some other abilities?) the cast time is reduced when the cursor is closer to your champion than the maximum ability range. Seems like this also works through walls to get a faster max-range ult. its because hes ulting into unpathable terrain, its not a mouse position thing

Radical posted:its because hes ulting into unpathable terrain, its not a mouse position thing It's noticeably faster when the cursor is next to the champion. Look at the video at 0:53. Malphite goes faster one way than the other. vvv Yeah, I figured that would be the reason which was why I noticed it at all  Of course it's only my conjecture, it could always still be false.

Zaekkor posted:Hey guys. I haven't played since the release of Bard and obviously a lot has changed / came out since that point in time. When he was released I was a Silver 4 ranked player so not the greatest. Just wondering if you have any recommendations on getting back into the swing of things? Is there a good "heres all the new poo poo since x timeframe" list somewhere? Just slightly overwhelmed! Thanks There isn't a list that I know of that puts out all the changes other than patch lists offhand. There's been some full on reworks of champions like Galio, and Warwick who are both pretty different. I suppose it depends on what champions you play or enjoy? There's a big tank overhaul coming up where they're gonna put out some new items and update around 6-10 champions. I can't remember if the ADC overhaul came before or after Bard offhand, but they've done some big updates to kits ofr certain types of champions. So far, ADCs, Mages, and Assassins got some looks at. Anyone/thing in particular?

I've seen some of the changes to my old core champs (Zyra, Malz). Anything drastically different about jungling? I think probably my biggest hurdle is learning all the new items, and learning what some new champions do. Any champs I should know about that get banned often?

You still start bottom-side buff, then wolves, then top-side buff, unless you wanna gank bottom or you're on left-side and must start blue. ADCs are still weak as hell so gank bot lane all day, except maybe watch out for Lucian since he got a buff recently and is a lot smoother and more fun for people to play.

Just had the most frustrating match. I'm fooling around with mid, and I decide to pick Teemo because it's a Fizz and I figure I can bully him. Lane goes exactly as easy as I predict: I get first blood, I'm consistently twice his cs, he's consistently near death. And then Lee Sin starts camping me, bot and top alternate coming to gently caress with me, and there goes my lead. In retrospect they totally deserve the win for the superior teamwork, coordinating to dive me under and even behind second turret to kill me. But wow was that irritating at the time to see what looked like it was going to be an easy first blood tower and snowball turn into a nonstop dickstomp. To my credit I didn't say a word in anger, and just said GG when the game ended.

Most of the champs released since Bard are fairly niche, the one you'll see the most often is Jhin who's a very bursty ADC with a Xerath-like long range ult. There's also probably a dozen older champs who have gotten full kit reworks since then, though none of them are really running rampant at the moment. There aren't any must-bans this patch though my experience is that Lucian and Ahri will be in every game if you don't ban them.

Chilling Tip: If you type "br" into search during champ select, the results are all support champs! Brand, Bard, Braum, Blitzcrank and Volibear! Makes sense since Brazil, is absolutely the support player of the Americas.

I realize that some people really hate "lol don't play this game" chat but I took a break from League to get back into fighting games and honestly if you want to play a game that is 100% laning phase, there it is. You have to deal with programming yourself with a new form of muscle memory but in return you get a 1v1 with no risk of interference from other players, perfect information at all times, and no one to blame but yourself when you inevitably get curb stomped. It's nice to have one or two installed to play after you lose a promo due to an unfortunate DC, is what I'm saying. Sometimes you want to just be responsible for yourself.

When is double jungling or jungle + jungle support going to take off? I'm so tired of the same setup for every match 99 times out of a 100. There was once a Tahm + Aurelion bottom and their gimmick was Tahm chomping Aurelion and then running at us since the orbiting stars still work during that time and it was such a breath of fresh air. Also Teemo + Cassiopeia bottom was murder in another game, also a breath of fresh air. Do they usually only rework items during season changes? I feel like they could remove half the items in the game and the game would be better for it. Those are my pet peeves, thanks for reading.

Is there a really compelling reason to completely uproot the way the game has played now for nearly six years? If you want to play something out of the norm you probably can, but that also forfeits griping about it too. If your wacky poison bot lane dual mages work then rock it out but the standard fare of adc support bot will eventually be as strong or stronger.

RealFoxy posted:I haven't played SR in a couple months but I just looked at the win rates for supports and Sona is at 54% or something, what the heck is happening in solo queue? Winrates are not always accurate imo especially if the play rate is really low. In this case sona has a playrate of 5% which is not bad but honestly I play 3-6 games everyday in ranked in plat1 and have never seen a Sona. Sona is an easy champion that might be why her winrate is high and her winrate if I remember correctly has always been pretty good. Anybody who plays lots of ranked knows whats the most broken poo poo in support. Karma/Lulu/Zyra are free elo right now. Especially Lulu can peel for adc's who are strong since the bork buffs and can mess with Assassins who are also popular(talon,fizz,ahri,lb). I pretty much always ban lulu and I see that her banrate is 8% which is the highest in soloq right now along with Katarina. I don't understand Kat bans though because she has mostly lost popularity since Ahri/Ori became meta.

Lazy counter question but sure! Some degree of structure is great for new people coming into the game, and it's good for folks that have played a role forever and wanna try something different. It's not a bad thing that it's simple and easy to do basic team building or working around a theme based off the 112J setup. E: eh, you've complained about league and the meta for a thousand loving years you already are set in your ways Servaetes fucked around with this message at 18:42 on Apr 10, 2017 |

Then I took kind of an extended break from league cause I was a bit burnt out and when I came back suddenly she's really popular again. Did she get a lot of lcs play this season or something?

Lulu support returning is the perfect storm of the assassin rework hitting (she stuffs Rengar, Zed, and Talon better than any other support), and Zyra and Malz dominating the support meta (her passive destroys minions/plants easily), and a number of small QoL buffs. Support itemization changes (introduction of redemption, ardent censor buffs), also heavily favoured her as well.

The best is when your team is hella indecisive while you're doing this, so like I head down as malph and get a 3 man ult near dragon or w/e while my team just paces back and forth unwilling to commit to a 5v4 with a solid engage and their top laner gets a free tower.

'wtf this isn't a statue, reported for trolling' -someone to the guy that designed the vietnam veterans memorial, probablyServaetes posted:That sounds like a problem for people that make new ones, not the ones that made the first Well, you already can't speak of just one League of Legends. There have been both natural and deliberately engineered shifts to the game over the years. The question isn't 'should Riot ever make changes to the dynamics of a Summoner's Rift game', because that question is answered (they will, they have and IMO it's been generally good aside from the slow calcification of the meta roles over the years); it's 'what changes should occur in the future' I guess that's why it makes more sense to me, in this analogy, for League to be 'the genre of monuments as a whole' rather than any one specific monument, because last time I checked they haven't updated the statue of liberty with exploding plants on the stairs to the top. I can't deny that would make it more exciting, though JerryLee fucked around with this message at 19:47 on Apr 10, 2017 |

I think it's barking up the wrong tree to blame Riot specifically when it's mostly just the players wanting to streamline the process of getting into their game by choosing to adhere to a generically optimal strategy. Yeah they've solidified a 1-1-2-1 setup with the way queuing into draft works now but I don't think they would have if players weren't hell-bent on playing it that way.

They've said they want to encourage some breakup of archetypes with where they go in lanes. If you've read anything Ghostcrawler has said when people first started mentioned bot lane Ziggs he points out its something he'd like to see more of than less. It's reflected in the fact nothing has been done to Ziggs either. The 112J standard is probably not going anywhere, no matter how loudly triforce Vladimir players yell
