Xerath I like but he's massively boring. So they're messing with animations to make people like the kewl stuph and tweaking his abilities and such.

I mean a poke artillery champ isn't supposed to go balls deep. And that's what people have fun with. Just because you can't make ton's of cool plays doesn't mean he doesn't do his job. :/

I had a singed on my team who tried that proxy farming bs the other day...he ended up going 0/9 because they just kept killing him over and over and over...and over (starting at level 1).

suicide singed only works if the rest of your lanes are winning b/c then they cant turn their focus onto making you a useless pile of garbage


but if all ur lanes are winning suicide singed is goddamn horrifying

all you gotta do is make a guide, then send a message to the guy (it says at the top of the guide making thing) and ask him to make it featured

then just sit back and WATCH THE MONEY FLOW B)

Riot can suck it. Better not mess with Sion. AD Sion AttackSpeed/Life Steal is <3.
They want to finally give the axe to AP Sion. AD Sion is the direction they are taking him.
I for one say thank god. AP Sion is just an abomination of a character (like AP Yi and AP Trynd).

I've never liked Liandries on Mordekaiser.

Actually I don't like the item in general.

Unless you're just spamming magic pen I guess.

Also when's Aatrox coming out? His Justicar skin looks like something out of Digimon.

I like Liandries when you can keep it constantly applied, like say Cass can.
When your basic instagib mage like Annie or Leblanc buys it though I feel like it's very weak.

liandry's can work on mord IF you go tanky (rylai's) and not deathcapDFGinstagib mord

the cooldown on his Q and E are really low at later levels so you can keep reapplying it in an AOE if you stick around long enough

Ashe isn't bad in the sense of a character slot, but I feel she's bad as a ranged AD because she.... doesn't do any damage... doesn't have 650+ range in a game of 600+ range blinks on every character who one-shots squishies on an extremely squishie character without an escape...

Ashe was once considered a late game god tier carry. In fact, that's why she was played at all considering her poor laning (at the time). She isn't even remotely comparable in strength to back then to now. How vastly superior are Kog and Cait late game to Ashe? Kiting reached a wall with riot character balance/creation that Ashe can't climb, run, jump or heh hehe heh kite over.

Bring on the team of season 1 only champions and Ashe is a pretty decent ranged AD who would still have to deal with 1 to 2 of the enemy team being able to get to her and "half" gib her. Now its 4 enemy champions per team being able to get to her and completely/fully gib her without even being able to provide much damage.

Maybe the whole Ghost + boot things utilityish spec is that helpful on her.

I like to run flash+ghost on ashe as it helps quite a bit with the gap closing bruisers. You can flash one, arrow another one and then ghost away to create distance and then kite. I feel like she can be solid fo sho. Also you can further mitigate the issue of lack of escape if you pair her with a janna or something

They should change her passive to help her scale better though like some of those other late game monsters you mentioned like vayne/kog

Then pick Cleanse if it favors your match-ups bot lane/enemy team specifically? What's hard about this? (Blind Pick Normals?)

I'm gonna try Ghost Flash a bit more, mostly I go Barrier/Cleanse + Flash to help with people jumping on her.

Her passive needs a rework, badly.

The servers lost me a game that my team was steamrolling super hard until four of us kept DC'ing.
It's a cruel world out there. :applejack:

That egoraptor ryze is kewl.

Also regarding Xerath, he just feels less engaging to play when his ult is down. Even though it's like 45 or less seconds depending on CDR at level 3, while lower ranks you gotta wait longer of course so it's even worse at level 1 and 2 ult.
He only makes those "big plays" when you have E and Ult up, otherwise you're just rooting yourself like a plant a million miles from the enemy team and sieging with Q till they leave. Which is, at least for me most of the time. Very boring.

His E also needed some kinda change to it since even if at long or short range you almost never land your Q to stun them so you basically tend to use your Ult to get the stun off, but if you miss (somehow) you're weak and left with having to hopefully land your Q.

Man, I'm really liking Cass with E being treated as single target now.
Full Rylai's slow and full spell vamp are so strong.
She can get CP'd pretty hard though, I think that's her only real issue. She crushes a lot of lanes though.
She doesn't get as tanky as say, Ryze, though her survivability is still good and her damage output is absurd.

They're all AD nowadays. They always beat my top laner at level 2 or whatever.
Also too many Eve jungles for my taste.
And suicidal Singeds.

Like they should be. Not the next thing Voyboy does, or the koreans do. Can't wait till they tweak either chilly mittins or lizard elder again. Cause bloo ez is about as common as Zed Khazix or Jayce mid now which I thought couldn't be possible.

What? I see a blue Ez is about 75% of my games, and I don't see the others THAT much. Most common one I see is actually Jayce mid, and I don't see too many of those.
