Aumanor posted:To be fair, ANY damage draws tower aggro, even the enemy hurting himself on your bramble vest. What are the "methods of dropping tower aggro" in this game, if you can't A-Click on your allies and even thinking about casting a spell on an enemy draws aggro? More specifically - how can I use flash to drop tower aggro? The shot follows me even after I blink, which would normally "disjoint" the shot in DotA. I know there's a way to dive in this game, I just don't know how...

some characters have abilities that let them avoid a tower shot but mostly you tower dive by having enough health to eat the tower shots

you have to flash before the tower fires.
|

Once the tower shot has fired, you cant dodge it, so juggling aggro comes down to having multiple people dive, 'juggling' the tower aggro by getting in and out of range, Before the shots fire.

rabidsquid posted:some characters have abilities that let them avoid a tower shot but mostly you tower dive by having enough health to eat the tower shots Yeah. Generally speaking, you perform a tower dive by either having someone who can absorb a large number of hits get aggro first, having someone who can become untargetable get aggro first, or by "juggling" aggro such that one person takes as many shots as they can before dropping aggro while another person takes the aggro. #1 is the easiest and most consistent method, and is thus the go-to one in solo queue.

i think of all the weird takes ive heard from the dota > lol posters "spells drawing tower aggro feels weird" is the strangest the reason i like the creep aggro change is because a lot of targeted spells are specifically hard for them to balance in lower ELO. having the creeps re-target means people need to play around creep waves (and the bushes in sidelanes.) i think the change just has the best potential of making targeted spells more fair at multiple skill levels. currently the gangplank Q will draw creep aggro and people seem fine with that.

Can anyone point me toward a good explanation of how all the new rune/mastery poo poo has shaken up the game for someone who hasn't played since a long-rear end time ago? It looks really neat but I'm also terrified of trying to do anything at all without the loads of stats from rune pages, especially jungling.

Nunu walks into your lane and doesn't even acknowledge you as the enemy laner runs up and shits into your peehole
|
# ? Jan 11, 2018 06:04 |

Those numbers can't be right for Nunu, there is no way, just casually giving your mid laner a even stronger deathcap which stacks with their deathcap. Just casually bloodboil karthus and have him requiem to one shot the enemy team, bloodboil literally any poke or pick mage like xerath/lux/zoe/ziggs and just delete anyone who gets hit by anything. Not to mention Nunu will just slap people to death again with 3 base AD on top of 55 magic damage at 9.

They will obviously strip power elsewhere if needed, these are just the new strengths they want to give him so people will pick him for a reason in draft

The Shortest Path posted:It's capped at 120 AP it looks like? That's not too insane. 120 AP is an absolutely massive amount of AP to get for free, and you only need 300 AP to be able to get the full bonus from rank 5 Blood Boil.

# ? Jan 11, 2018 08:02 |

120 AP is an extra ~150 damage on the entire enemy team on karthus ult and an extra ~35 damage every second to anyone unfortunate enough to be standing in E

Think of it this way: if Nunu puts new Blood Boil on a champ with at least 300 AP, that champion is getting over 3,000 gold worth of free stats. Put that poo poo on Azir and it's more like 4.3k worth of gold. Ardent Censer was considered the most broken item in the entire game when it gave something measly like 2k worth of stats.

yeah but ardent censer was usually built on champions that did poo poo. blood boil requires you to have a nunu

I don't see those changes making nunu a terror because the power shift is on maxing his w which sucks rear end and will have him get loving annihilated by any decent junglers invades or counter ganks.

Hot take: Nunu is going to continue doing Nunu things and will probably be nerfed if these changes buff him in any significant way.
