The Door Frame posted:So what's the deal with Glacial now? Twin Shadows and the Hextech thing are gone, and I can't think of any active items replacing them that make use of the rune, so it's lost half the utility it had before, right? Are there plans to make it more powerful or add items that work with it, because I'm starting to get the feeling that they forgot about Glacial in the preseason updates and are hoping that we forget too Riot just completely forgot about Glacial Augment with the item rework and now nobody but Senna cares about it. It works with Stridebreaker, Randuin, and Chemtank, but nobody who buys those items wants the rune. njsykora posted:Senna still absolutely loves Glacial Augment because it makes it so much easier to harvest souls of enemy champs. Everfrost will still proc it too so it’s not completely without use even if Everfrost needs some pretty significant buffs if Riot want it to ever be bought by anyone. The problem with everfrost glacial is that slows don't matter if the enemy is already rooted

RPATDO_LAMD posted:case 1 is the one situation where you should actively try to killsteal I queued a late night ranked game last season and got a jungle YI with like a 60% win rate, and I was on my best champ with one of the best support combos (Jhin+Swain) and Swain used his W to help Yi get a kill in the enemy's jungle but the W took the kill and Yi spent the entire game flaming and alternating between running it down and trying to win. If you're going for comedy, antagonizing these types of people is A+. If you're purely focused on WR% you gotta do everything possible to reduce friction in your team.

Today I just learned that because of Katarina's R now repeatedly applying on-hit effects, a Rammus can kill her just by pressing W near her. It's hilarious. edit:  after placing in bronze iii, I have forced my way up to silver by playing a whole lot of miss fortune and rammus

Servaetes posted:https://twitter.com/LoL_France/status/1350144421048811522 Tahms had some tentative changes on PBE that they trailed for like 2 days and then they've been on the list for absolutely loving ages, from memory I think: 1. Switch around devour and his ulti, then make his ulti much shorter range but knocks people up on arrival, but you can no longer bring people with you. From memory it's like 1000 units now, so enough to surprise people but unless you land right under them it's your only reliable cc. 2. devour is then his ultimate, gets back it's old insane ratios (I think... 44% max hp damage at max rank?) and has a longer duration when used on an ally. I think they kinda twigged the problem with tahm was that his devour was problematic since you could do some stupid cheese with towers with it with various runes, and additionally it was stupid busted in a support kit since it let him basically cover up literally any mistake the ADC made since the CD was (relatively speaking) so low that you could use it on basically any engage to cancel it. If that's still the case gently caress knows.

njsykora posted:Rammus getting a new ult is good because he might as well not have an ult right now. At one point didn't it have some wild ratios and completely destroy towers? Of course, now trist, ziggs and a ton of other characters can rip down towers so I suppose it doesn't really matter anymore.

I just figured out that Rylai's triggers Imperial Mandate, why did no one tell me this? I kept thinking that they couldn't work together, that would be obnoxious, but I happened to build both on the same champ to better land my non-CC combo and my only non-CC spell started triggered it. Now I know that I can be cheap, obnoxious, and beneficial to the team with almost any mage

It's not for the damage, it's for locking people into the hellzone they can never escape from, thylus fitting into Rammus' primary role: ensuring that the enemy team's ad champions are not allowee to play the game. I am excited about the new ult meaning people can no longer make me blow flash by hiding on the othet side of a wall of minions.

Double post but gently caress you placement matches I went from Iron 3 to Silver 3 with a ~70% win rate mostly carried by long game win streak. Now I think Im at the appropriate level of my badness but gonna try and get to gold because there are prizes? The above said Im a total Sona one-trick where Im averaging 69% or so with her and like 30% when forced to use anyone else so uh, what is a good resource to understand more champs? I am atrociously bad at determining when Im actually strong enough to kill someone in a fight as an adc or an a. As a jungler Im ok in the laning phase but then turn to hot dogshit when we exit that period because I cannot for the life of me ever feel strong enough to fight someone.

Now I think Im at the appropriate level of my badness but gonna try and get to gold because there are prizes? As a sona one-trick, the thing that's been working for me is playing a bunch of aram to get experience with what it feels like to fight as different champions, and how your kit interacts with the others on the field. It's not a perfect arena for learning because the 1v1 experience is very hard to get in ARAM, but the stakes are low enough that you can experiment without feeling bad. Once you've got some basic familiarity, you've gotta just start trying stuff in games and seeing how it works.

The reason no one's told you this is because, for any champion who doesn't already have a cheap way of proccing Mandate on-demand, waiting all the way until you've finished Rylai's before your first item becomes useful is way too goddamn long to wait.

If you have no built in CC then you would build Rylai's as the first item, not a useless Mandate. But yeah riot saw that asols were building Rylai into Mandate and nerfed it bigtime by moving most of the damage from the initial proc (0 cooldown, triggered by every rylai hit) to the allied-champion proc (6 second cooldown, can't use it at all if you're solo)
