I finally built a gaming PC but for some reason League is locked at 60 FPS. I can drop everything down to minimum garbage quality and it still sits at 60 FPS. Am I being punished for being on Windows 10? I checked my graphics card profiles and it's not trying to lock the FPS or anything, and the setting has it unlimited in the client too.

:confused:

Apparently sticking the attack speed passive buff onto the W and changing the damage minimum on it a bit has made Kogs winrate go up, although it has hardly been enough time that it would necessarily be meaningful.

Well Q was always the skill that you were best off skipping and it gave him a steroid. I didn't expect the changes to be that useful but they are very promising thus far.

Also I was probably wrong about Ryze. After seeing Keane play him last night, he just split pushes and ults to delete every wave. He farmed each game until he got really strong then he would look for TP flanks. The fact that his ultimate is up all the time after level 11 makes him pretty hard to pin down, and distortion swifties with 0/18/12 mean you have a lot of map pressure and playmaking ability through reduced summoner cooldowns. I'm thinking that if you get behind you'll have a pretty hard time but I'll play a few games on him tonight and see how it feels.

Post rework Q was the first skill you maxed on Kog because W was absolutely terrible in lane. Now Q is something I guess you put a point in to for using it to get the occasional CS.

So now that my fps doesn't drop into the single digits in team fights this game is uhhhh a lot easier: http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2096996581/211473482?tab=overview

edit: At one point in this game I QSS'd Malphite ult, which previously would have been straight up impossible for me.

I really liked Galio support as like my retarded pocket pick for a long time but teams don't tend to have tons of AP now to make him a real shitter and his mana costs have always blown.

Conspiracy theory time, the portal was never bugged, but riot wants fresh numbers and win % data without the portal being built for the champs that have been abusing it the most to figure out which to nerf.

You have reached peak fun at level 5 when you fought against bots and had no idea what to do. It's all downhill from there.

Not true at all. A skilled player in any role can influence a game heavily. Case in point, I just got to watch support Elise carry a team via tons of roaming ganks in mid. Like, she rushed swifties and just constantly showed up mid (sometimes with the jungler, many times without) and crushed someone's dreams. While she wasn't making GBS threads damage or anything, she was able to convert a lot of presence into kills and gold for the enemy mid-laner.

I swear this is so loving legit and more people should be doing it

Stormraiders is backwards as gently caress. If you have enough damage to proc it, you'd rather have thunderlords and kill them. If you need to run away, it's because you don't have enough damage. It'd be way more useful if it was the other way around and let you run away from people who did a lot of damage to you.

You use it for chasing, not running away.

Riot reworked Kog to the point that he can't be balanced. Good work Riot. But at least now we no longer have old Kog, whose kit was too generic, which is definitely the reason he got reworked. Sure.

I still don't get why they moved the attack speed from q to w for kog. It meant you had to either do more damage with w or attack faster.

It's because they can't figure out how to balance his new extremely loving garbage kit. I am guessing that this is to help weather some of the storm when they nerf rageblade next, but it's possible that they're just stupid.

Well yes that was my point? Yi sucks enough atm that I can't rely on someone picking him in these kinds of games to play well enough to compensate for it. I've seen more effective Jhins than I have effective Yis.

It's been so long since I started, do you still get one free champ after the tutorial?

Master Yi has a really high win rate actually
