Grand Old Thread: League of Legends!

[_Dice]

I'm also going to pick a random night where I make a conscious effort to talk about every goddamn thing I'm thinking while I'm playing so that people understand what's going through my head midgame.

i got featured on TL for Starcraft 2 for doing the same thing. it's definitely helpful to alot of people.

You have GirlTalk playing. Automatically just became my favorite streamer :D

Here's to hoping Wukong is underpowered, so that I get free access to play him whenever I want.

 

[SamuraiPanda]

Windamere is win.

 

[PhantomX]

He is underpowered, lol.

 

[john!]

Are there any targeting macros in this game? I used to play WoW where you could hit buttons to target enemies and clicking on screen is fail.

try smartcasting, you just move your mouse over the enemy and hit q/w/e/r and it casts the spell right away. but don't do it for skillshots that you're unfamiliar with.

 

[SamuraiPanda]

He is underpowered, lol.

I'm not sure I feel the same way. If you build him like you used to, yes he's UP. But adjusting for the new changes makes him quite nice. Given, I've only played (and dominated) one game thus far... I'm just judging based on his stats and how he feels now.

What's your build?

And @everyone: what do you think of Kong so far? He seems like a pretty decent melee DPS, not op or up, just good.

 

[PhantomX]

I was talking about Wukong, lol.

New Tryndamere is much more consistent. Better at some things and worse at others.

 

[Jazriel]

New trynda seems pretty lols now that he can be at full health and still crit like a mofo if he has full fury.

 

[SamuraiPanda]

What's your build?

Stuff that hurts.

I was talking about Wukong, lol.

A convenient lie to cover up that you thought Trynd was bad!

 

[NeverKnowsBest]

Can someone please explain to me how I should be team fighting with Warwick?

 

[smasher_25]

It all depends on what your role is in your team and what the other team is.

Ult somedbody important at the right time is usually part of it though. You just need to play him a lot in fights to figure him out.

Greetings Summoner,

We don't do this normally, but I have completed this refund. The 2925 RP have been added to your account, but they may not display properly until you go to the Store and attempt to make a purchase. You do not need to complete the purchase, the value should correct itself before you complete the transaction.

This is a one-time exception.

Please let me know if you have any questions, and enjoy the game!

Sincerely,

[PhantomX]

Lol, I may need to do this soon. Could get more rune pages Buy Ashe, Nunu, Ryze (450ip apiece), sell for 975 RP.... profit!

 

[UTDZac]

Wait, Hylian, so just to be clear... you didn't actually spend RP on those champions?

 

[Hylian]

No I didn't spend RP on them. Also, they don't cost nearly that much, I got 2 of them in the collectors pack.

 

[PhantomX]

Definitely doing what I just said, lol. Will do it later tonight, probably.

 

[Shaya]

Wow Hylian scamming riot

Also lol @ "ezreal getting nerfed".
TBH I thought that wasn't a bug. BUT W/E.

 

[Espy Rose]

Wait...so Hylian is a thief?
Hyli, buy Tryndamere.

Leona free week. Definitely giving her a go or two.

What should I focus on?

 

[SleepyK]

[Espy Rose]

So...same as a Laning Rammus?

It's pretty good on tanks in general, especially if they don't cs well.

 

[M3D]

So can we talk about how even though I was having the worst night evar I still managed to pull off a BOSS 1v4 baron steal? Cause I think it was pretty amazing, but maybe that's just me.

 

[SamuraiPanda]

So can we talk about how much win there is in windamere?

 

[Shaya]

I'm finding the changes making him kinda mediocre...

the whole loss of the crit damage steroid .... afasfasfdsasfdaaweffda a

what a sick scam

i think im gunna try it with the 480 ip champs in a bit

 

[Virgilijus]

I like the changes late game when crit chance is high enough not to matter, but at early levels jungling it is substantially more difficult. I know a lot of 2k+ Elo tryns say it was basically a nerf across the board, but I haven't felt they were that bad.

 

[SamuraiPanda]

I just like saying windamere.

 

[-Vocal-]

Played Corki. Still went 10/1/7. Yep, I'm fine with this. Time to abuse the hell out of him before they nerf him again next patch. Sounds like they'll be making Gatling Gun scale off of only bonus AD.

Oh yea and started playing Sona. I've been a Soraka fan forever but Sona is carzy good too. I love that she actually has cc as opposed to being a straight up sustain bot

 

[Jazriel]

Leona free week. Definitely giving her a go or two.

Philo, HoG, Merc Treads. After this, CDR is pretty important but depending on enemy team comp it's okay to just go MR (no MR + CDR items )

I generally do Philo HoG Boots1, then Treads + Kindlegem. Rarely will I need to Reverie and will go for Glacial Shroud or start on Omen.

 

[-Vocal-]

So I learned that Wukong outlanes Corki. It was either that or the twenty million Cow ganks in my lane. Either way it was painful. And his movespeed is 20 higher? Oh god...

 

[PhantomX]

He definitely might handle it now that Corki can't blind. But he's only good in lane, AND you can just ignore him and farm anyway. If he jumps to you you Valkyrie away.

The problem is that his primary threat comes from the burst, and my reaction time isn't good enough to Valk away from that. Also, yea, it was probably the constant Cow. Hate Cow so much...#1 need-ban in my book. After all the dumb crap anyways

 

[DarkDragoon]

The leona build I usually run is:
Open Regrowth+pot -> Philo -> HoG & Boots 1 ->
Then I either go Merc[usually] or CDR boots, as well as pick up a chain vest, and start building sunfire cape or frozen heart, depending on their AD's farm status. My next item is usually Abyssal scepter to make myself do more damage and help AP carries get an edge in. If someone already built it then I just pick up BV or FoN.

I usually grab a kindlegem or something in there somewhere for the CDR...but I tend to feel like I don't need it as much.

At least, until all my Cooldowns are blown and I'm looking silly just standing there. But whatever. I get my job done.

-DD

 

[Juno McGrath]

Leona is too pretty to ever look "Silly" Nick.

I looked at the changes and thought they sounded like nerfs. Which I guess is nice as I was about to buy a crit page for trynd and trynd, but now I feel less inclined.

I suppose I could purchase the monkey now, and then compare him to HoN's monkey that comes out on Friday. Or I could do nothing and complain about not getting warwick for free.

Yup, I think they nerfed him. lol

His laning phase is more consistent... ly bad now.

Dunno bout his jungle. But it seems as mediocre as it was before the patch.

 

[Mogwai]

what? can't he just spam his heal now? that seems really good for his laning.
