One of the narrative people said that her VA was actually a major inspiration for the story, since it asked the question, "What kind of trauma would a kid have to go through to find burning people fun?"

Also I love being the fifth person to a premade four stack and nobody engaging with me at all during the course of the game so I spend the first fifteen minutes getting bullied in top by a Xin Zhao and an Amumu and not getting anything going and then when I think we're pushing mid for the Nexus everyone vanishes to go for Baron without saying anything so I just get gang hosed into Oblivion

But at least nobody said dumb poo poo so that's a plus

What's an account transfer? You can give your friend your level 30 account?

you clearly have never played a game as teemo where you are so far ahead that you have an extra completed item over the jungler and have set up a defensive perimeter so strong that nobody is ever going top to help the poor bastard you are dumpstering so the guy just leaves the lane and starts taking jungle creeps

I played a Teemo game once where a Trynda killed me under tower with his ult, then walked over a mushroom on his way out. He was angry.

hitting people with the omae wo mou shindeiru is badass and once you learn how to estimate dot damage make sure to recall during the dot to let them know that they are dead and you have no need to chase them

Ogres are like onions
Speaking of recall, I think one of the most satisfying things to do in league is waiting until like 7 seconds into the enemy recall and hitting them with some poke. Then they back off a little further to do it again - I'll eat a couple of tower shots to interrupt that fucker a second time

On another note, Grounded is the most fun CC to troll people with. Watching some Vi or J4 durdle around in Cassi poison, completely ineffectively is a great feeling. I stopped a J4 mid flag drag last night and it was the so god damned funny

Probably never, but I hope he gets knocked down into near uselessness soon. Probably the hardest snowballing champion in the game right now, and he's an absolute pain in the rear end to ever try and gank with how obnoxious the triple threat of Stopwatch, Spellbook Flash, and Pool are. I recall one of the developers saying that adding him to the game was one of their biggest regrets, because he's been a nightmare to balance ever since his inception.

I think that title goes to the champion remade the most: Ryze.

Vlad is popular in pro play right now so he will get knocked down a peg or two in a patch or two.

Ryze's core conceit (rapid-fire mana-based spellcaster that uses combos) isn't impossible to do right, but they've had trouble hammering down a stable identity for him that isn't just "Cassiopeia but blue". Vlad's core conceit (lifestealing spellcaster that uses health instead of mana) is a loving morass of balancing issues, and will remain so perpetually due to the very nature of the conceit.

The big balancing issue around ryze is that he's he gets full ap caster damage with not full ap caster itemization, which is countered by shorter range. Depending on the composition and patch, that short range might not be a big deal, or it will be a huge deal.

ryze is really only a problem at the highest levels of play so really they should just dumpster him if they want him out of competitive
