Hey, I have a question.
Is it possible to change the screen display in game, like where ability icons and stuff are located?
I despise playing on purple team, because the icons take up so much of the bottom of the screen that I feel like I can't see my opponents as well as they can see me, and I'm at a disadvantage.

No, you can't. That's one of the complaints people have had about purple side for years, and apparently Riot said they'd do something about it someday, but then years passed.
Personally I don't mind it, but there are a few champions that feel kind of gimpy on purple side (last time I played Corki I noticed that it was really annoying to do a max range Valk downwards)

HUD scale on lowest possible at 1080p.
**** map awareness (although I used to be able to run with that fine, maybe I've lost concurrent [peripheral] vision over the years :()

Map has its own scale too doesn't it?

I think the only thing you can move is the chat box. I moved it to the top right corner in spectator mode, because the character info tab would block the chat box when it was in the bottom left corner.

Both from Australia too.
Is Mozart still alive?
idk but I have to deal with them relatively often.

I can go 31/5 in a game with more damage to champions than entire team combined and he can go 5/1 then he'll be like, "yew didn't carry look at how much gold you fed" and I'm just like "lol".

oh the things I endure

Dunn worry I have to endure with some of that.

Dunno why or how, but a year back some sonic main invited their bronze friend and he added me. After many times he'd add me to skype calls when I didn't even get an invite to play yet (which I usually decline) + message a few times on league, I eventually removed him but he somehow found me again despite me going through 2 or 3 name changes on league lol.

The influx of skype calls, awkwardness from how he is, and how bad people can actually be at the vidya of gamez is astonishing. Along with any actual times I'm trying to help him and his friends play better and what not to build but still say I'm wrong and rylai's rush on Yorick or going swifties/mobos is good on ads.

EXACTLY, like, Zephyr Khazix, 5 damage items wukong, Hurricane/hourglass/BT varus...

They really believe these builds are good, and I can't convince them to listen to me.

Meanwhile I play ad LeBlanc in an ARAM of all things and immediately get branded as "useless".

It's just horrible, I wish I could buy thier items for them.

Thoughts on the BT buff ? +10% AD seems ridiculous, even though I knida understand rito's intentions of making it meaningful late game while not giving it too much power early.

some people don't take warlord because 5% bonus AD isnt much

It's good on people who only stack AD like Riven and Fiora though.

I'm pretty sure runes, masteries and buffs count as bonus AD too. I'm not saying that I'll build it on Heca (or maybe I will) nor that it will give GP more popularity, but Janna is definetely gonna benefit from it. Also this might or might not make me go BT>LW>3BF on Draven.

PS : congrats to rito for missing the point on essence reaver and giving me false hope with that Urgot splash art.

Well, I guess my opinion on it is, it's a bit of a late game buff, as everything other than your LW/BT/IE will be "bonus". Finally kills bloodthirster stacking (it likely was the last tier 3 item that people stacked). Also gives Janna some extreme relevancy if she starts to come into meta a bit (with some sort of expected Q buff and a rinse repeat of all this season with janna instead of lulu). Like Janna's shield giving 5 AD to people with bloodthirsters isn't probably going to break the balance beam by itself. If the BT shield is prioritised over Janna's (not sure how it goes now), would be good too.

Why does Riot insist on using xx regen per 5 seconds instead of per 1 second? It's the most infuriating thing.

New jungle item looks cool though.

I can't believe people think Janna is only starting to be relevant since ardent censer/BT buffs, when in reality she's been godlike all season. And forever.

Youmuu's cooldown nerf nooo D: (i mean it's not a big deal but still)

I'm fine with the cooldown nerf on glorious nippon steel blade as long as they don't touch the stats until it's used in every single game in LCS on AD's then they nerf because "we are at LCS Rito ....... COMPETITIVE INTERGRITY"

Lemme be the first to say that out of the entire season so far I've seen 2 janna supports.
They all lost cause she's bad in front of the likes of leona morg thresh lol.

janna sucked because with the shift in junglers you wanted a support that could initiate a fight as a champion she was fine, people are just ******** and think that because a champion doesnt see competitive play means its garbage in solo q

I see you like misconstruing people's arguments too. Noone has a problem with you going 31/5, it's when you feed 1/8 in lane...

EXACTLY, like, Zephyr Khazix, 5 damage items wukong, Hurricane/hourglass/BT varus...

They really believe these builds are good, and I can't convince them to listen to me.

Lol, it's ironic, because you've actually said AP/AS varus is good, (and I still consider zhonyas/runanns is an okay niche build on him, which would show if I crunched the numbers). I'm sorry for having fun in a normal. Zephyr maxed my cdr and gave movement speed, pretty sure I was stacking MS that game - and I already had all my core items anyways. If I'm not allowed to do that, how come it's fine for you to build tank ashe/caitlyn/vayne??

Aero you think that AD Lulu is better than AP Lulu, so I wouldn't criticise others for their item preferences.

Wtf I build 3 damage items and 3 tank items (if you include tabi or mercs as tank items). Why do you make stuff up? This is like that time you told Jezmo that I said hpen was good on Zed.

Check my match history before you make up lies.

And the times I say you don't carry are when you go like 3/11 (which is a lot) then think that you 'did your job' because you just constantly splitpush without wards and repeatedly feed gold through ganks when there are no objectives on the map for us to take. Everyone has repeatedly told you to ward and splitpush only when there are objectives on the map for the rest of us to pressure but you don't listen.

Also, we only complain when you go 0/8 in lane, like you did against that Jax. The guys have even complimented me for not feeding as hard as you when I'm behind (not that that's much of a compliment though).

Ad lulu is bad.

AS/on hit Lulu is a really good duelist just AP Lulu is better at teamfights and being a super support.

AD Lulu was ok pre-rework when the base damage on pix bolts was higher. They nerfed the base damage but gave it an AP ratio to deliberately steer people away from AD and towards AP. I don't get why you'd still build AD when she has on-hit AP damage and AP ratios on her spells.

Why do you think they did it then? The changes gave her scaling utility whilst allowing to still do what old AD Lulu did (on-hit DPS).

Now friends, there is no need to be upset.

Dre that one time I went 0/8 in lane I was like, trolling and feeding intentionally.

Jaswa Hurricane/Zhonya's/Bloodthirster is a terrible build. If you want to play AP Varus, play AP/On-hit Varus, not some weird hybrid build.

It's fine for me to do anything because I'm not bad~

it's so that people would build nashors tooth on her to abuse her damage, they wanted to move her away from support and into an auto oriented carry role

Wait, do you have a problem with zerker greaves, BT, LW on varus? And remember the zhonya's is replacing GA, which is fine.
The only problem then is hurricane over PD then, yes?

How come you always go terrible then when you do off-builds. Even if you weren't bad with standard builds, that doesn't excuse going bad with off-builds...

EDIT: 'that one time' you went 0/8 lol? No, if it wasn't happening as often then it wouldn't be noticed as a COMMON occurrence. I like how you always happen to be 'trolling' or whatever excuse when you get rekt hard in lane.

Well yeah that's what I meant. With her rework, there's no reason to build AD because AP does what AD Lulu used to do, plus more.

Aero- No you've fed like that in plenty of games, and you weren't trolling. You were building normally and you were playing the way you always do. You got annoyed and even left the Skype convo because people were getting angry at you for feeding lol.

Also if you were trolling, why were you complaing about being sent top and constantly asking for jungler help then?

It's ok to have bad games, it happens to everyone. I just hate when people try to claim they were trolling as an excuse.

i like to think that aero jaswa and dre are a little family

jaswa is the dad who always tries to assert his authority on his wife, aero

but aero is a strong independant woman who don't need no man (which begs the question as to why she is married in the first place)

and dre is the rebellious teenager who doesn't care what his mother says and goes drinking with his father (i.e play renked) IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW WOW I'M SO GOOD

I UNDERSTAND NOW TOO.

Aero, I didn't say you ALWAYS build swiftness boots on Ashe/Caitlyn, just that you do build them.

Teach me your ways of humour Boozer senpai.

And you're part of the family too. You're like that middle child that everyone forgets about but is actually a secret high-achiever.
