armor pen marks and quints. flat armor seals, and flat mr glyphs. you can change the marks to attack speed but its up to you. You can either do a split 15/6/9 or 15/0/15 or 0/21/9. dont go the offensive route. he has too many builds as he can play many roles. go look up lilballz, saintvicious, theoddone, and kobe24 for builds

btw im going to hear how you think the veigar and poppy new skin art is soo cute gg

I don't play Veigar at all, but I want to learn just so I can use the leprechaun skin. This is why they make skins, because it suckers people into spending money.

I've been saved by Urgot today countless times.
I haven't had the displeasure of having an Urgot on my team yet today, but I'm sure I won't be as happy when I finally get one.

I also hate when champions I play are free. Another week of bad Teemo players and Amumu's who get themselves killed in the jungle and miss all of their bandage tosses.

#1 protip is don't jungle Xin. He's much better in lane, particularly if you stick him vs a ranged carry. He's really slow and his path is pretty limited/specific (unless someone leashes blue for you, he can't even do it til like level 4 :\). There's a reason I picked up Trundle for the jungle instead.

dshield -> tear asap
R > Q > E > W

Getting Meteor over Stun just plain isn't worth it unless you're going to mejai rush (aka roflstomp).

Afkfarm all early game. Don't bother harassing, without Locket he doesn't have the mana for it unless you spec him weirdly.

AP/lvl glyphs, 3/6/21. You could do 9/0/21 but I like more survivability. Get the ap/lvl mastery.

after tear I go DFG -> Deathcap, but I know there are plenty of people who think CDR, Mana Regen, and another 400 dmg nuke just aren't worth it compared to 60 more AP (which you have anyways due to Q passive and ap/lvl spec). Also, get CDR boots.

One of the funnest junglers IMO. He is very fast, great at 1v1 (if you run into someone in your/their jungle), and very mobile, which makes him good for counterjungling.

team games like LoL aren't about the individual, they are about team work
that means that you need to guide your team, tell them or show them what they need to do through wards and pings

If your allies don't follow direction there's not much you can do.

At low elo everybody believes they're stuck in elo hell because of everybody else and not their own play, so they don't listen to anybody.

Shen is epiic. My favorite champ... But you can't carry with him. Early game yes, late game...

You only need regen over mitigation if you get hit more often. Learn to play.
Uh, you know why more people are considering taking items besides Doran's now right? Because the price increase takes away the option of getting health pots. You see a LOT more people getting cloth armor + pots, boots + pots, Sapp crystal + pots, etc nowadays because of that change. The difference between having to go back early due to a lack of regen, vs potentially winning your lane due to regen is significant enough.


Why do you see people rushing Catalyst all the time? You think it's for the initial health and mana from the item? No, it's because the Regen bonus on level up is AMAZING for laning purposes. Being sustainable during laning leads to more EXP/Gold/Tower damage/potentially winning the lane, and it can also turn a really bad lane MU into something a lot more manageable if you can shrug off a lot of really gay harassment instead of having to go back constantly.


If you're going far enough into the defensive tree to reach Strength of Spirit, you might as well get it. Having that over slightly increased AR or something silly like the dodge mastery is definitely the way to go. Instead of having 6 armor, you could have an extra 5 regen per 5 at a paltry 500 max mana. If you do the math, the increase in health regen benefits most characters more than an armor increase for laning UNLESS the person is incredibly squishy armor wise and has the ****tiest mana pool. But if that's the case, you probably wouldn't be dipping into the defensive tree to begin with.
