I love that a quarter of all Teemo games are played using PTSDmo.

It's only a quarter of all games where a skin is used, which I imagine is a fraction of the amount of total Teemo games. Still rad tho

What full build are you going on Lux atm?

I haven't been able to play enough, but I like Archangel's, Rabadon's, Void, Sorcs as a core four and then Morellonomicon, GLP-8000, Banshee's, Zhonya's, Spellbinder (, Mejais) to taste, depending on the enemy team's composition.

Every MOBA has to have a Pudge. I don't know why that's the character that ended up being universal, but that's how it happened.

nobody has a hook with the range or power of pudge's hook, and lol is a game with much slower kills than dota. the closest to pudge is bltiz and blitz lacks the lockdown ult that pudge has.

rubick and meepo would be terrible in league. leagues design philosophy of having cohesive, very synergistic abilities make taking any random ability feel less impactful. meepo would be absolute hell to control, as league has no interest in rts micro and any micro in the game is completely at odds with the games engine and you have to battle just to be able to do simple movement. pugna would be less pugnacious.

i would much rather newer, original characters.

and yet, when i look at that character i see something that mechanically fits into league way better than shoehorning an idea from a completely different game. rubick would be terrible in league of legends since it does not have cliffs or flight, and spell stealing is not as game warping as it is when black hole and ravage exist. pugnas nether wards are a neat concept that might work in league, but rather than lazily taking ideas from a dying game, just make new ideas instead.

It is possible that my suggestion to add a character(s) which would in no way fit the design ethos of League was not serious.

I have no self awareness and only think about how assassins interact with me and not how they add a lot to the game, especially when you are going to lose to that mpg maw unless someone pops him



Complaining about assassins is imo the best way to identify a player that takes pride in their skill and yet refuses to improve or actually break out of bronze. Same with blitz. These are champs that will auto win unless you actively look to punish them. Just saying ‘hmmm well maybe if I just farm he’ll leave me alone’ and then complaining about how unfun zed is when you inevitably allow him to safely scale, or make zero effort into understanding how to deny them their damage. Instead you need to learn how to look for opportunities to create advantages, before they press their commitment button. This is unfortunately 5% harder than aggressively avoiding champs and just ‘trying to farm’ and why actually learn how to play those matchups when you can just throw your hands up in resignation after you did nothing to punish 3 blitz hooks that missed and you finally died on the 4th

You could see that from an uncontested push, but yeah could be.

To be fair I'm on the "gently caress Zed" side of things but that's just a general thing not a "remove assassins" thing.

Being across a wall from somewhere you have no vision to or leading up to when there's a Zed or other dashy assassin is bad, yeah.
