Grand Old Thread: League of Legends!

[PhantomX]

Talk about changing everything o_O

 

[What's The Point]

Everything you've done will still work, maybe unless your jungle. There just may be new, more optimal items to build.

 

[PhantomX]

EXCEPT NOW YOU CAN TURN OFF TURRETS FOR 2.5 seconds. WHAT THE HELL!?

 

[JTB]

bottle in league now

hm

 

[ToferTheHuman]

It's like playing a new game again.


:>

 

[Wave⁂]

A lot of variety in this batch of items, and I like how few items are just "gives +stats". Not being able to say "this is mathematically the best AD carry build now buy these items" anymore will be very cool.

I absolutely LOVE all the new build paths. Warden's Mail builds into FroHeart, Emblem of Valor now builds into three items, etc.

 

[ShroudedOne]

RIP Shurelya's

RIP Oracle's Elixir (though this might be a change for the better)

[COLLAPSE="Sword of the Divine"]Sword of the Divine

Rapid Burst Attack Damage Item
Recipe: Recurve Bow + Dagger
Active: You gain 100% attack speed and 100% critical strike for 4 seconds or 3 critical strikes - 25 second cooldown. This item gives no attack speed while on cooldown.
Passive: Kills and assists halve this item's cooldown.[/COLLAPSE]

Uh....

 

[Lovage]

when in doubt, copy dota

def. gonna freshen up the game though

 

[Leacero]

now maybe support will be more fun to play

 

[Sharky]

now maybe everything will be more fun to play

 

[Geoberos]

Sword of Divine Hyrda Xin Three Talon Strike experiment.

When these items come, it's going to be a long grind in Custom/AI testing all these items and builds.

 

[Shaya]

Yeah... melee assassins designed to kill someone in 3 auto attacks...
Or something...

I WANT 90 SECOND JITBS BACK RIOT I SWEAR TO ****ING GOD

 

[Sinister Slush]

I want my 50 second ambush back along with higher MR and armor on Twitch.

 

[Shaya]

Personally I'd just prefer his old slow back.

But they got rid of Shaco's 90 second jitbs purely because of something he won't be capable of doing after this patch and it massacred his late game in the process. Err, not even, it pretty much hurt him at every single point of the game monstrously.

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

Consumables

Sight Stone
Supportive Ward Item
+X Health
Passive: Starts with 4 charges, charges refill when you go back to fountain.
Active: Consumes a charge to place a sight ward that lasts 3 minutes. You may have a maximum of 2 wards from the item at once

So..I gotta run through wards in bot lane all the time?

 

[Vyke]

As if you didn't before.

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

I suppose, not used to them having 4 on each b, or 5 if upgrades.

Still good design.

 

[Asdioh]

This is awesome. I like the way they made starting boots less important.

when in doubt, copy dota

def. gonna freshen up the game though

Did they do anything specific from dota? The closest I can think of is Sightstone being similar to the bottle in dota, though the sightstone was already revealed before.
edit: oh lol they literally added the bottle, wtf

 

[Player-3]

WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS RIOT I MEAN YEA I TROLLED IN 3S ALOT THIS SEASON BUT COME ON y

 

[JTB]

need someone to duo with tomorrow night

most important matches of the season and i keep getting afkers/feeders n_n

 

[Player-3]

atmas going to be MAD good s3


builds from avarice blade now instead of crit cloak

 

[Deleted member]

with malady giving scaling on hit dmg (15+10%AP) I seriously think teemo will start to wreck teams now. I'd have to check how much AP a midgame build would give now but something along the lines of Malady, hurricane, lich bane & rabadon sounds really stupid now

 

[Coney]

how's everyone's new season going?

5-7 in placements and dropped to 1500, might resort to duo q

it's chaos right now though, laned against chu8 and had 5 other diamonds in a game a few days ago

 

[Kuro~]

I think i'm gonna wait another week and then start doing my placement matches.

Can someone explain how those work?

 

[Coney]

you play around ten matches of big importance (gain/lose 50 elo)

then they start to even out (dropping to 40, then 30, then lower and lower)

they're not a HUGE deal unless you ABSOLUTELY tank them but they make the climb to your goal harder/easier depending on what you're shooting for

if you play now you risk having players in higher elo brackets on/against your team, so it's prob a good idea to wait

 

[ShroudedOne]

You laned against Chu? Loool, that sucks.

 

[Coney]

well i actually did really well in lane killing him a few times (my morg against his TF) and i was so hyped

but that man def ran TP and my team was not ready for TF to be everywhere LMFAO

hitting morgana's q against known good players feels really good

it's the little things

 

[Espy Rose]

I got two wins so far in ranked, but I've only tried it twice.
I'm probably gonna wait awhile before I play through it.

Normally I'm pretty hype to see Stonewall videos. He's pumping out a bunch of Season 3 jungle stuff soon too. Kinda excited to check it all out.

 

[Scamp]

Hope they change the system some. Early games are too important. I went 45-25 to get to 1550. Someone with a similar record could be at 18-1900.

 

[Ussi]

I was 18-16 and at 1200 elo :|

Lulu has 325 starting movespeed <3 now i don't have to start boots and can still dodge skill shots with around 355 movement speed

Hecarim has 345 starting :0 gonna start cloth armor on him. Hyped for frozen fist on him

Its pretty awesome the movement speed readjustment. Movement speed quints + movement speed masteries gonna replace needing boots start.

 

[Pikaville]

So LoL is gonna be pretty different.

Really a lot more aggressive it seems.

 

[Vyke]

Season 3 is gonna be super ****ing crazy. Feels like a whole different ball game on the PBE (regardless of the weird-o's.)

 

[Ussi]

Fricken called Nami's ult

 

[Wave⁂]

The Haunting Guise upgrade that does %HP damage, doubled if slowed... ****ing Singed buffs

 

[Sinister Slush]

>not rumble buffs

 

[Pikaville]

Screw that, Zyra buffs!

Her E plants will proc the extra slow damage.

 

[teluoborg]

Personnally I just want an Hydra Frozen Fist GP.
Just to see what happens.

 

[Ussi]

Avarice blade GP getting dat money. Add in TF mid for more money.

 

[Asdioh]

atmas going to be MAD good s3


builds from avarice blade now instead of crit cloak

same stats? I was wondering what they would do with Atma's, it always seems to border on OP or niche useless.

/downloading PBE patch
if anyone wants to play on PBE lemme know. I'll probably spend more time there than Live now.

edit: new mastery trees are nice. I'm mildly surprised they still have summoner spell improvements in them, I always thought it was kind of a waste. Like, if you're taking a summoner spell, you WILL take the mastery that improves it, unless you can't afford any points in that tree. Like if I go 9/0/21 and take Heal, I'm screwing myself over slightly, for example.

 

[Ussi]

AP Nami is gonna be good.

.75 ratio + stun on Q
.5 ratio damage + .3 ratio heal THAT BOUNCES TO DO BOTH
.2 ratio for 3 autos that slow
.8 ratio on ult, AOE knock up

Everytime she is hit by her own spell she gets movement speed so she can escape ganks probably the same way Lulu can except she doesn't choose between Cc or speed buff land a CC
