I agree that no warding has immense potential to backfire. It's a jungler's dream, but it just encourages laners to play passive as hell :\

Did anyone else's patch take forever? I was just able to start downloading it, and it's been going for well over an hour...

Sometimes patcher crashes (someimtes with negative or hexadecimal estimated times) and leaves it hanging. Just close and reopen the patcher. You'll have to go through the "scanning all files" part again though, but the rest of the downloading would continue where it left off.

Shouldn't take more than half an hour on average unless someone else be stealing your bandwidth.

Oh god...65 Mbps...

*sigh* I've already restarted it once, too.

I mean, it doesn't look to be hanging...it's just really slow

so like, let's just hypothetically say you had a homie who just started at Riot working in their QA department. like, in this crazy hypothetical scenario, I think it would be cool if you sent him issues like this so that he could make sure they're aware of it :).

Jayce players, has the E nerf changed your skill order at all?

I'd been doing E > W > Q > R in auto-attack harass lanes

Q > W/E > R in long range poke/farm lanes.

What are you guys currently doing? (Paging PhantomX and other Jayce players)

I haven't got to play TT yet. :( Is it the same general idea as before, snowball the **** out of top lane and gain jungle control? And this time everyone surrenders at 15 instead of those people who stall. (Although if they gonna stall we just don't take inhibs)

The jungle is pretty much all in the middle cept for vilemaw.

The fountain is now seperated from the nexus by a platform similar to dominion's.



Thoughts on Elise people? I haven't played her yet but she seems like an AP bruiser and the itemization for that seems REALLY awkward.

<_< I know what TT looks like, I was asking if it played out similarly to old TT. Mainly for the few people who played ranked 3s before the change.

Fair enough, but what I'm saying is the old stall tactics can't work anymore with the fountain change and with the move of the vast majority of the jungle to the middle top can't singlehandedly decide jungle control anymore.

I haven't gotten a chance to play since the patch yet, so I can't help you. I'll likely still get E first though under most circumstances for the Gate utility and high damage it does (percentage wise).

I would also tell that hypothetical friend I get the same issue when Karthus ults.

Ohhhhh

I was thinking it was the enemy Sej that made my FPS drop. : < Yeah I've had this issue for the one game I played Vayne in yesterday.
What was the Sej's name? I played a game as Sej earlier with a Vayne and had the same problem, the Vayne even pointed out that every time she used her ult she lagged and we all realized it too.

And also, I was lagging another game as jungle Malph where every time Id activate W then E right away Id get some choppy frames. For some reason only happened if I activated W then E'd like, immediately, but it did happen every time which I found strange. That happened last night tho and I havent played Malph since so Im not sure if it's still happening.

oh noooo she's out
time to ban her in ranked to keep dummies from playing her without practice.
I have no idea if she's good or not, but she looks like at the very least she's good at chasing people to finish them off.
Btw she's probably built best as a standard mage. Maybe get Rylai's or RoA for a bit of bulkiness.
Actually her ganks look ****ing insane for a jungler, maybe she'll be a beast once the S3 items are out, I think they're doing something for AP junglers.

Two slow moving, unreliable skillshots and a Atk Speed Steroid at Melee Range on a Caster? Hmn... Sounds like an AP Bruiser to me!

Plenty of precedence for AP bruiser. Fizz, Akali, Diana...?

EDIT: How do her spiderlings scale? Do they scale with her AD? Might be a strong hybrid.
