I thought life steal was overpowered as poo poo during beta. Probably because it was. Also I thought stacking auras was the best possible use of my time. Starks soul shroud frozen heart while playing taric.

I don't think I've ever felt so helpless in this game as when your internet decides that, no, you're not going to win this and chokes your bandwith so that you're forced to play at 1,000 ping for the rest of your game. I don't even have any loving options for internet providers. I didn't want to climb out of bronze ever anyway.

Speaking of bad Internet connections I have tried to setup one of those tunnel programs (ping zapper) or a VPN service as an alternative to routing through my ISP (Verizon fios) but I'm never able to load into the game after champion select. The error is always my firewall is blocking the game. Is this a port forwarding issue? Has anyone else successfully used a VPN or other service with league?

I have before because of reasons.

Make sure your VPN covers udp. There are a million tools to test this.

Poppy is a severely underrated champion that is pretty much unstoppable once she comes online. A lot of people see her painfully awful early game and never give her a chance while failing to realize how much of an invincible carry-deleting rear end in a top hat she can be.

Confirming.

I'm not really getting this master tier thing. Is it effectively just the replacement for the current 80+ lp people?

Will this contribute to rank inflation.

How do you get demoted back to diamond 1.

Does this mean diamond 1 <80lp is now going to be spread over something 125% the current 'space'

Does master get a diamond 1 reward set?

Does master and challenger share an LP, if so why not just say gently caress it and bring back plain mmr for diamond 1+.

Hi,

Some routing tables hit 512K routes today. Some old hardware and
software can't handle that and either crash or ignore newly learned
routes. So this may cause some disturbances in the force.

I apologize to whoever bought Gnar because I hyped him up. I hope you're still enjoying the little guy even if the consensus is that he blows.

I legitimately thought he felt really strong, even if you don't get ahead. Unfortunately, it's way too hard to get into the fray as Mega Gnar so it's nearly impossible to wreak all of his havoc. Plus, the whole not being able to decide when you're going to all-in is a pretty lovely thing in and of itself.

Man I don't know why more people don't play support Karma, cause holy poo poo she is a HUGE bully in lane. Her level 1 damage is unreal and her level 2 all in has worked like, 7 games in a row with a poke oriented ADC. Her shield is also amazing for chasing/escapes.

Is there some glaring weakness she has that prevents her from being played regularly in high Diamond?

It's not as much neglecting the game as it is having to cope with a hilarious amount of traffic from all around the globe on a single server cluster, while also getting malicious traffic you gotta filter out somehow as well, all while trying to provide the most reliable experience possible for real time gameplay, for a userbase that by majority plays the game for free.

You can't compare them to similar multi million dollar companies like Google because Google isn't providing anything as delicate in terms of connection fidelity.

Youtube, Hangouts, Google wallet, Drive (a whole lot of people are going to lose their poo poo if their ~cloud~ with critical company information on it is down for any length of time during business hours), etc

i was playing on a gold account with a friend the other day and despite being pretty fed, i couldn't do anything about this stupid loving setup. we'd spend like five minutes mid with no hope of an engage, id say "please just let me split somewhere" and as soon as I walk away, my team would engage a 4v5 (or 3v5 with my friend trying to pull them back). i tried to trick them by walking away but being ready to return, they wouldn't fight. tried to force something in the jungle, the enemy team wouldn't bite

after like 20 minutes of the most utterly confusing and ridiculous game i finally safely got to a different lane, killed two of the enemy team, and we won a few mintues later, but holy poo poo. i still dont understand why people would play league if that was a routine occurrence

This is why I stopped elo boosting. You literally could not pay me to play this game at gold or something.
