Grand Old Thread: League of Legends!

[Hylian]

Thank you!!!!

 

[HondaFoo]

Finally found a pro Janna/support player to study in Nhat Nguyen, hopefully watching him can bring my Janna to the next level. I'm considering getting some lessons from him

And Hozz is taking over my account for the next few days while his gets unbanned, he's been stomping people at low elo sooo hard so far with AD Sona tehehe

 

[Wave⁂]

What are some good YouTube channels that have high-level matches with commentary? I'm not really into streams, and I sort of find matches without commentary boring.

 

[PhantomX]

Don't spend money on lessons, Honda :\

 

[DanGR]

There are no good commentators for league atm.

 

[DMG]

But phreak is good! He meatrides Dyrus harder than diamonds colliding into the sun, and points out trivial info like look at his farm *while epic baron/dragon fight is going on)

 

[PhantomX]

The official name for incognito blitzcrank skin is "Definitely Not Blitzcrank." Too ****ing good.

 

[Espy Rose]

I laughed at the name pretty hard.

 

[MacD]

played nid for the first time since the patch she got changed

i refound my love of nid even it's it's not the exact same. watching a spear chunk out someone's health is too good, hit someone for 3/4's

except one game i was against a nasus top and he rushed gunblade..... OMG DAT LIFESTEAL sooooooo sad

His soraka is even better. I think fnatic Melissan is the best janna.

If you search esltv on twitchtv, you can find the IEM games with the original commentary and interviews. colbycheeze sometimes commentates matches but not so much anymore. you can also just look on the solomid own3d.tv channe for scrims. EG/Solomid scrims have sound enabled.

Good thing they're nerfing Gunblade and not Akali.
You'll never have that problem again, and perfectly good champs can keep doing how they do.

That was a ****ing long *** read.

 

[Zero_Gamer]

Omg, thank you so much for posting that. I was laughing nonstop. I really want to try Rylai's Renekton now.

Standby: Relationship fanart incoming

Edit: lmao, at Renekton's quote at the end.

 

[Pakman]

Just what I wanted!

ANOTHER ANNIE SKIN.

-_-

 

[Zero_Gamer]

Or maybe... ANOTHER RENEKTON SKIN?

edit: I know he's not talking about the story, but I want to assume he is.

 

[Scamp]

I wonder if I can get them to make a George Ta-Caitlyn skin.

 

[Shaya]

Arrr, I got back to the elo where if you don't pick a top tier character your team mates will troll [pick] you.

Say goodbye to Pantheon and Ezreal carrying :<

 

[solecalibur]

Honestly thought the patch was today, even took off school yesterday to play the **** outta talon and get like 100 + elo

 

[PhantomX]

That's incredibly sad :/

 

[Zero_Gamer]

Does this game factor in decimals to stats or does it round up/down? That is to say, if I have 6.8 AD, do I actually have 7?

 

[solecalibur]

That's incredibly sad :/

Lol it isn't as bad as it sounds, already had class canceled for most of my classes.

pantheon i can maybe understand, but even when i was low 1400/mid-high 1300's no one really complained about ezreal

especially after ez has been seen in so many tourneys recently

 

[PhantomX]

You forget that Shaya runs AP Ezrael.

 

[MacD]

yes, yes i do.........

do people really complain about pantheon though?

 

[Pakman]

Pantheon is a decent counter to Morg. You have spear her through her black shield.

 

[Shaya]

I would skip primary school back in the day for Ocarina of Time.
1. Because it was lol primary school
2. Because it was Ocarina of Time.

 

[PhantomX]

So what do you skip now to get your 50 games of League a day in?

 

[Shaya]

Life and many many many university classes/lectures.

 

[UTDZac]

Some things you don't want to find out, PX...

Don't really want to get one of the new four skins. Sad times

Would have liked to have seen Pumpkin Throwing Gragas lol.

 

[PhantomX]

Gonna wait to see if they did anything w/ particles/sounds on Ghost Nocturne. Haven't really thought any of his skins are better than his default.

Definitely Not Blitz is so tempting... though.

 

[DallasPhat]

Agreed Not Blitz + Ghost Nocturne are to my likings. (But I'm a big Nocturne fan)

 

[UTDZac]

watching jiji stream. its too much...

 

[JTB]

Not blitz is so good lol

Still not tired of reverse annie though, no need for a new skin

 

[Mogwai]

watching jiji stream. its too much...

it's*

kog maw is stupid.

 

[MacD]

i wanna know if noc throws a white trail, i can't believe they didn't show that in the vid

I know this probably sounds a little weird but is Kat considered a pubstomper?

I wouldn't ask, but I win almost every game I play with her, yet I never actually feel like I'm pubstomping. I just feel like I'm playing Kat on a level that the people I'm playing against just aren't at yet.

I've been playing her for a while now and it seems like every game I play with her lately I just win my lane, gank other lanes a couple times, poke and turret dive like a baws (Kat seriously makes it too easy I swear) and then they surrender somewhere between 20 and 30. I can't tell you the last time I've had to actually take down the nexus when playing Kat, or even an inhibitor turret.

So yeah. Idk. Someone should tell me. :\

 

[john!]

kat's great at low levels and then falls off HARD once people learn to cc her the instant she ults. definitely a pubstomper

 

[DMG]

Also Renekton Thread too good. Rylai tank Renekton gets all the ladies.

Kat is a textbook example of a pubstomper. High damage vs. bad counterplay, low damage vs. good counterplay, snowballs really hard.
