Who is the most useless champ?
I say karma.
WHY ARE YOU TROLLING ME?

Karma is a really strong solo lane. She can deny last hits and deal damage with her mantra shield. Her short CD q hits like a truck. She gets free AP from her passive.

There are plenty of characters more useless than karma.

I wouldn't say Nasus is evil, but rather that he simply doesn't care. He just kills to enforce the cycle of life and death.

Don't worry, Nasus bow-chica-wow-wows all the ladies to make up for the killing.

Well... from watching the stream Dominion seems like it will be incredibly fun to play casually, but I don't know if it would be able to work as a competitive game.

One thing is for sure though, mobility and skirmishing power is king, as expected.

I always thought Eve was accepted by pretty much everyone as the worst?

She isn't as mobile as she would be in lane b/c u can't buy wards and creeps don't run down the middle of the map (where mobility buffs are, as well as fastest way to get from one side to the other). However she doesn't have mana and her ult would be pretty great defensively, so more viable than summoner's rift, I'd say :p

Anyone know the build that Chu did for Maoki?(HoN/Dota player that went to League and solo mm'd with maoki to top 5.) I'm curious I've been playing Maoki a bunch because my buddy told me he is a lot better to learn than any of the other f2p heroes this week.

Is Dominion just going to **** Kayle over even more than Summoner's Rift already does? :c

ROFLMAO.

Obviously I knew this was coming, naturally.

Caitlyn won't be dropping for a long time, Z. She was fairly recent. They're only dropping prices on the really old school champions.

Watched a little bit of CLG vs Fanatic MSI... and Orianna ult > Cho'Gath rupture is the most disgusting thing I've seen in this game in a long time. Guaranteed to hit 3-4 people and then follow up with scream, lol. That's like 6 seconds of CC and crazy damage on most of a team.

@M3D

Yeah, but critical strikes scale faster than armor penetration.
You being like twice the health, with auto attacks dealing twice as much damage (due to higher crit rate + IE, you're getting like 50 AD from atmas)

at that end part of the game, cleaver wasn't helping you enough against their tanks, and you had to kite better to be safe due to your squishieness so you couldn't freely auto attack whoever you wanted anyway.

The main thing about late game ez that's "the strongest you can achieve" is:

1. Near 40% CDR
2. Arcane Shift hence is on the shortest of cool downs as if you were Kassadin on steroids
3. Mystic Shot being a very strong source of health sustain (Tforce proc + bloodthirster life steal).
4. The defensive amounts so you couldn't be bursted down instantly (which did happen to you and I as the squishiest on our team several times)
5. Slowing people (Tforce proc + red buff)

NOW after those 5 things you're looking at "maximising damage", Last Whisper would be awesome, but you're sacrificing awesomeness from triforce (realistically at late game you care about the slow and movement speed, not the sheenproc) or bloodthirster (your sustain in a fight / what let's ez 1v5 people), or defensive item of choice (Ezreal -can- be played without defensive items successfully but the level of positioning required is quite extensive / defensive items give ezreal a larger error margin) or boots (you'd have tforce but you're still slower than tier 2 boots) or infinity edge... well yeah, you can get rid of that and suddenly you have a strong core item while still doing critical strikes of good amounts and you can murder tanks a bit, however against the squishies on their team you are being outdamaged.

tl;dr Warmogs, Atmas, Bloodthirster, tforce, last whisper is strong enough. Switching out LW for IE would have made murdering vayne/cait/anivia? (I tthink it was anivia?) that ever so much easier by using auto attacks.

But you still would be a wrecking ball without IE. And would have dealt a lot more damage than the build you had at the end game (the same build you had for like half an hour)

Gunblade everyone is amazing.

I still think gunblade pantheon is #1.
I thought it was "useless" with the updated pantheon but I've gotten used to the slightly altered play style and am moving back towards hybridisation with him while still being successful.

I've been going like: Brutalizer -> BT > Hextech revolver and moving towards either the gunblade or -maybe- tforce or just plainly more Bloodthirsters. Hextech revolver is still a really good item choice, haha.
