dear god

0/5 nasus top in the first 10 minutes

instalose

 

[DanGR]

Wait, what.

Thought it was you who thought jpop was the devil. Nvm if it wasn't.

 

[Ignatius]

No, I can't stand the Pirates soundtrack, or the Chicago soundtrack.

 

[Zero_Gamer]

Finished. I'm done.

I'm making a petition to change Alistar's moveset. Too many bull**** games where I see Alistar feed 40 kills and then still come back because he slaps the keyboard.

 

[DMG]

Make Pulverize only target the nearest champion.

Congratulations, you've done (something?)

Or ban him

Or pick him up for your team instead

 

[PhantomX]

If an Alistar fed 40 kills and your team can't capitalize on all the time he spends dead you deserve to lose.

 

[Virgilijus]

Thought it was you who thought jpop was the devil. Nvm if it wasn't.

I think I am the one who told you he hates jpop.

I stand by that claim

 

[L__]

jesus just had 2 games where side lanes fed 0/7 in the first 15 min

what do I even do about that?

edit:

nevermind I just realized what I could have done

 

[MacD]

move on and play again

 

[jpak]

or play duo lane cause its the most gamechanging lane

i've played over 10 games of dominion with shaco, and i've won every single one. i think he's probably the best hero in the game in that mode. now i know why riot doesn't want to buff him! here is my build... it sounds ridiculous, but give it a shot:

start with swiftness boots, rejuv bead and 3 pots
priscilla's blessing
force of nature/sunfire cape
trinity force
sixth item varies, but i usually get aegis of the legion

you are extremely hard to kill, with insane movespeed and crazy tankiness and health regeneration. you offer huge amounts of map awareness, while putting constant pressure on the enemies' towers. you are also a great duelist, while having decent physical damage thanks to triforce.

the hardest counter to this build is hextech sweeper, but it's fairly easy to simply avoid people who build this item.

 

[Shaya]

double sunfire and aegis buffs?

what?

 

[john!]

double sunfire and aegis buffs?

what?

when shaco is near his clone, both give sunfire damage to the enemy and both receive twice the aegis aura. at least that's how it used to work; did they change that?

edit: NOOOO i am sad now. they ninja-nerfed this without putting it in the patch notes:

http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/V1.0.0.120#Undocumented_changes

i ****ing HATE when they don't put stuff in the patch notes...

regardless, any sort of tank/movespeed build with shaco will completely break dominion.

not nearly as strong as singed/rammus imo
but regardless riot is unlikely to balance characters around dominion to begin with

 

[Shaya]

Shaco hasn't doubled up his auras on himself for like a year.
And sunfire shaco was nerfed just under a year ago too (unless they reversed it...? I asked for it to be reversed countless of times after they made the passive a unique one)

 

[fkacyan]

Now that Alistair has a passive ghost he has absolutely no need for the stun on Pulverize. It's overkill to the extreme.

 

[Shaya]

I thought Ali's passive only made him be able to walk through creeps, not increased his movement speed?

 

[fkacyan]

Walk through units. Which means he can walk through you during the knockup and then hit you back, as opposed to having to go around like he used to.

My issue now is he can stagger headbutt / knockup and keep a champion CCd by himself for like 4 seconds while doing great damage on them.

 

[Hylian]

Just played my first ranked as Cho, went 6/1/6 felt good.

 

[Zero_Gamer]

Headbutt shouldn't stun.

 

[Wobbles]

I feel like Tristana is a bit underrated ATM.

She lacks overall utility, but she's absurdly tough to gank, her early game is great burstwise, her Q steroid is amazing come late game and in lane skirmishes her E helps give her the edge against other standard healer/AD teams. Late game she does massive damage and her range is goddamn absurd.

I guess in a world with Cait and Ashe and Vayne people don't give Trist credit anymore

 

[Shaya]

Kog'Maw really hurts tristana too.

Kog'Maw:
1. Scales harder (scaling by enemy stats...lol)
2. Has more range
3. Scales a lot harder
4. Has pretty good damage, poking, burst, etc in lane as well <- Trist's is better though

Pretty much Kog'Maw is Vayne on steroids with as good or better poke/range than Cait from level 3 onwards without an escape spell.

Imo Ezreal, Corki (yeah... he's probably still really good just no ones using him now...), Tristana and MF kinda huddle around outside the land of top tier viability.

 

[john!]

i really like trist. her passive and w would be amazing on any other ranged carry. i think she might be my go-to ad carry now that ashe and corki got nerfed (even though they're still good).

 

[Ignatius]

If you could toggle the passive on Trists W I'd probably play her more.

 

[john!]

you mean her e?

yeah it's a bit annoying when you don't want to push the lane but you have to.

 

[Ignatius]

Yes, that's what I meant.

 

[Tom]

im kinda surprised everyone is so upset about Alistar in this thread

 

[PhantomX]

Zero Gamer = everyone?

 

[ranmaru]

I play LoL.

I main Annie. I really like Orianna, so expect me to dabble with her once I see a sale of her or something. I like Amumu alot too. I'm the type of person to put alot of effort into fewer champs, like I have done with Smash bros.

Also I tried Dominion and I'm not really into it. Tried it on both accounts, I guess I like the laning phase for now. Maybe it depends on chars or something. Generally if I'm up for a game, I'd be playing Classic.

I have Skype and Vent.

I also will be working on accounts for the other servers. : P

TL;DR:

Lol tags: Lethiz, Tacos Master, George Washinton (Eu server)
Mains: Annie, Orianna, Amumu... So far. xD I have been playing for a month?

 

[Omni]

I ****ing love Dominion. Addictive as Hell. Some of the more stronger champions I've noticed have been Nocturne, Rammus, Gangplank, TF, Heimerdinger (really, really good at defending turrets), and I've been using a lot of Akali = free one on one kills. But yea Dominion is just... really fun. Although players who leave or who are AFK -really- affect the tide of Dominion.

But I'd still rather play Summoner's Rift. Dominion is just a good game for me to play when I know I only have 30 minutes available before having to do something else.

 

[Zolga Owns]

The next champ has been described as an "artillery mage", wielder of giant arcane lightning beams, and "The reason CDR caps at 40%"

 

[Omni]

So an OP Heimer?

 

[Zolga Owns]

That was my first thought. I like his concept though, so I'll play him even if he sucks.

 

[DMG]

Op Heimer

Haha

I WISH

 

[jpak]

heimer is pretty good right now

 

[Zolga Owns]

Ya he is. Heimer/Soraka lane is scary.

 

[jpak]

you'l see rocksolid play it in tourney soon probably. they have actually practised it

 

[PhantomX]

Dphat ran that quite a few times with Dojo, but not sure if they pioneered it themselves or jacked the strat from elsewhere.

 

[Zero_Gamer]

Zero Gamer = everyone?

I am, the voice of the people.

 

[DMG]

Dphat came up with the idea one day cause he's ****in ********

It pushes hard. but it's hellbent on winning early. If you can't take advantage of that pressure early game, you're gonna fall behind and not have a very useful lategame pick.
