To my horror, silver is just as bad as bronze. In my last two games, jungle flat out decided to only farm because he died on his first gank. Then in another game, jg and top started inting because they were mad at each other. They were both doing it. Together. Like a hate gently caress.

Another bit of nostalgia is pre rework BATTLERAKA. Pick soraka mid lane. Your core build is liandrys, sunfire, and abyssal scepter. EVERYTHING MUST BURN

Honestly those karma buffs are going to make karma top lane even more hideously obnoxious to lane against than it already is.

You wanna have an enlightening moment about this games success go look at the original models and character art. It’s amazing the game succeeded. Pumping assloads of money into a game can work out sometimes.

There were quite a few times I'd avoid taking W until level 8 because I would just never have the mana to spare for it, or couldn't requiem because I had to wait for mana to regen up to 150 to pop it off after Q spamming someone into range, they are welcome changes even if karthus isn't very meta where most picks just want to hit 1 CC skill shot to kill someone from 100% instead of 15 in a row or in a game where champs like irelia and akali exist with endless dashes.

After getting warmed up on my account I'm now boosting my S/O. I am become Elentor, booster of Elos. Currently at Silver 2. At this point the smurf detection is going on full mode and I'm having some extremely hard matches.

How do you guys deal with Pyke as a support? He's loving obnoxious.

The Dregs posted:How do you guys deal with Pyke as a support? He's loving obnoxious. If you're playing a low-mobility ADC, you have to give Pyke's all-in a lot of respect. His Grab into Q into ignite does more than enough to secure a kill or force your flash. If I see Pyke, I'll typically go Lucian - if you hold your E until you see him use his dash you can dodge out and get a favorable trade 9/10 times.

I deal with it by picking pyke (pyke rules). Semi serious answer: when I'm playing pyke, I ban Morgana cos I find she messes him up. If he lands an unexpected hook, you can spell shield the followup stun. This leaves pyke just dashing into your minion wave which leaves him exposed for a dark binding. There's also tahm, just eat your adc if they get hooked. You also have your own HP regen so you can trade better. Pyke loves the brush cos he can throw hooks and also recover his HP. Ward the brush to deny him an easy recovery.

Thanks. I'm actually pretty good with Morgana. I can see Spellshield +Q really making him regret his decisions.
|
# ? Oct 24, 2018 12:47 |

Also just more generalised stuff: few botlane champs can match his level 2 all in, really only Leona comes to mind, so be extra careful when he hits 2. Morgs good but really anyone with heavy CC at least makes him think twice before going ham. I love picking him into squishies like nami, brand, janna etc but I have to pick my fights more carefully against Alistar and the like

Another stupid af old-school thing: bankplank. By sheer happenstance, GP was my first ever main. I still remember this incredibly stupid game before I was level 30, where I sat on boots + double philo + triple hog and just farmed top lane until I had 10K gold saved.

Enigma89 posted:His W is really strong and the mana cost is a lot. This is a pretty good buff IMO his w is too situational to be a “must get” ability, often functioning as a utility one point wonder in lane as maxing e and q is far more important. no karthus mains advocate maxing w. it simply is not a priority, despite being a good ability karthus also has real mana issues as his q and e are like a mana black hole. 30 mana off an ability you seldom use compared to q and e is insignificant. 50 mana off an ability with a 3 year long cooldown is insignificant. only the change to the cooldown provides any real buff in that an aggressor karthus has more frequent aggro timing windows

# ? Oct 24, 2018 13:54 |

to put it simply: level 3 lay waste costs 32 mana. a 30 mana reduction on w does nothing about karthus mana problems. you can use one more q now. likewise, a 50 mana reduction is two more qs. E: to be clear, though, i do not think these buffs are bad.... just that they do not do anything important. karthus is, and has been good, and now he is imperceptibly better. just be advised that karthus is not going to be some huge terror now that his mana issues have been unlocked or what ever pog boyfriend fucked around with this message at 14:07 on Oct 24, 2018 |

The answer to Pyke isn’t [x champion], it’s just playing around his cooldowns, same as any other hook support. Wait for him to miss, then move up and bully him for it until he backs off. He’s pretty squishy early on, so even him landing something doesn’t guarantee he won’t get blown up. If you do just want to counterpick, Leona or Taric.

The preseason changes seem like they will really reward strong leaning champs and also make waveclear way more important. More minion health and resists and etc mean you need waveclear to hold back late game sieges or you just fold. And longer landing phases with harder to take towers means you really benefit from being an rear end in a top hat to your lane opponent and then freezing the lane.

Arcturas posted:The preseason changes seem like they will really reward strong leaning champs and also make waveclear way more important. The preseason changes are a horizontal shift more than a vertical one. Longer laning phases actually benefit scaling champs that are weak in lane more than they benefit strong early laners. If you're playing Vayne and your turret gets blown up at 7 minutes, your only real choice now is to try and freeze the wave at your inner and pray to god your team can 4v5 for 15 minutes, because extending past inner is likely a death sentence. The barricade system ensures that strong laners are still rewarded for playing forwards while also ensuring that scaling champions can't get completely knocked out of the game within the first 10 minutes. It also partly disincentivizes roaming, so weak laners aren't putting their other lanes in as much peril as before.

Have they removed the dumbfuck idiotic design decision that towers in some lanes are harder to destroy than towers in other lanes? It feels really bullshit when I'm 3-0 Quinn/Heimer/Ez top, and I used every moment alone in lane to push, and the 0/0 enemy bot lane with mediocre pushing power still takes first tower bonus.
