Err... Everyone I've spoken to that enjoys the champ disagrees with this sentiment. Are you pulling a SamuraiPanda on us?
They reversed the only buff shaco has been given his entire existence this patch.
just wondering, when was this implemented?
Broken PvP heals are broken, never heard a shaman complain.
This is the only post I'll make on this issue.
i, and lots of other people, could do just as well as most of these top players if we duo queued with the same people they did. but we never got the chance to make connections with those players during season one, so i guess we're ****ed for life as long as riot thinks solo = 2.
I realize ELO is a good system..
ok, I'll stream myself soloing out then, k?
So you're just as good as the top players, and you could do well against them, even though you have never even played with or against them... Shouldn't you just duo with the lots of other people and you'll see success??
I watched this game and it was glorious. Every lane was won and GG and JiJi both dominated their lanes. Then proceeded to have ridiculous kiting 2v5 moments where they would somehow kill everyone but have 10-12 hp left. Hotshot played Cass, JiJi Orianna, Bot was Vayne, Heimer, and Leblanc. Dumbest team comp ever.
my point was less about me being as good as them, and more about the duo q system being stupid. but i've never gotten the chance to actually play them (only criticize them from the viewpoint of a stream watcher) so i cannot make an accurate judgment of my skill level relative to theirs.
Jpak won this one. Add in Mogwai's comments regarding the top players would still carry out just takes longer to straight up soloQ. That just means you want to be one of those people who get carried to where he doesn't belong. Or else, if you played enough games, you would climb higher than w/e elo you were.
It breaks any ally spellshield according to that thread. Haven't been able to test it myself yet. But I do believe people have done the Sivir + Ez bot lane already.
i probably would... that's the magic of duo queue
making the elo system worse than it already is, since 2010
So Sivir has "infinite" q harass and doesn't have to build manamune anymore?
Sadface.......
what? no. Different ranges add depth to ranged character design. And not all Melee is being normalized exactly, there are still Melee characters with > 125 range (and amumu is still below 125 I believe), but I think there are certain behaviors that they didn't like about < 125 range attacks (stuff like last hitting over your own minions rather than having to path around them to last hit opposing minions).
He has a very very good point.
Well think about it like this: you would have had to known some of those same top players at the start of season 1 for them to play with you, which means you would have had to establish yourself as good even before then. It's not just "now" that you aren't being able to play with them. There have been plenty of opportunities to prove and meet top players even before Season 1 was in the picture. If you haven't gotten to a solid ELO level or not scrimmaged against teams that play in tournaments or played in league tournaments yourself, then that's on you.
Nope eat a peepee.
it's partially my fault, since i didn't take ranked seriously during the first 25 games or so. when you are at 900 elo and only gain 15 per win, it's REALLY hard and takes a REALLY long time to get up to gold. this isn't jiji playing on a new account and getting 1500 elo after 20 games. i did manage to get gold, but that's only halfway there. i wouldn't have as many complaints if riot allowed people to gain/lose the same amount at the start of season 2 as they did when they first started ranked. that way people can prove how much they improved during season one. right now, i just feel like riot took away 300 elo and i'm going to have to grind my way up AGAIN. this duo q thing is just another reason that season 2 looks like the same old **** as before and not at all like the fresh start a lot of people were hoping for.
