First time doing a LoL video... tell me if you hate it or not. Probably want to add more to the video (ganking with it, pushing towers, zoning w/jitbs), but not sure...
(I have it as unlisted atm because I'm not sure if I'll be doing those things or not... would start delving too much into an ap shaco tutorial which would be full of my "DONT ****ING DO JITB NESTS YOU DUMB ****" bias which would scare people off I think)
The video rocks my socks.

Yeah in comparison to the volume of the music at the start the voice is quite low. I didn't exactly want my voice to be bellowing out either. I'm pretty sure it can be heard fine with higher volumes though.
My volume is at the highest setting for both my headphones and the computer, and I can't hear it well enough to not ignore it. :( The jungle music is too good tho. :o

Don't use background music with lyrics. I know most people don't mind it, but I find it a bit distracting. People already mentioned the volume issues.
It doesn't have to be silent in the background. Just use something a LOT more subtle than what you've got atm, imo. jpop is too upbeat.

Video games are like my go-to source of instrumental music (even though game music isn't a genre), because it's so much easier to find than other instrumental stuff.

wow, my headphones is set at 12% with YT vol at 100% and its pretty loud for me, haha. I really must under appreciate my hearing. :|
Another reason why I didn't ramp up the volume heaps was because I can hear my quintessentially yelling mother in the background (on the other side of the house) at barely audible levels with that level of volume.

:c

Unrelated question...

Has Hozz tried AD Sona bot lane with a support? How is it? Why doesn't he think it works (since he wants a solo usually i assume he doesn't like bot)?

Is Atmogs they way to go these days? I've been told by a couple of people it is just because of the ability to splitpush and escape as well as do more in teamfights because of the tankiness. The only way I've ever played Nid is get blue and throw 1000 damage nukes from the bushes.

Thank you Px for all the Riven Jungle tips.. I finally have a jungler now

last game I played I with riven I put in the work.

but you know how her build is mad cheap. what happesns when I get into super late game? because at the end of the game I had played I had like 5k money and nothing to do with it. this was my build though

Frozen Mallet, Atmas, Hexdrinker, Merc Threads, Yomuus, Wriggles.

then I sold the Hexdrinker for a BV and then I sold the yomuus for a Warmogs and then STILL had 5k Left.

so when that situation arises?

You sell Wriggles for BT and Hex for GA. If it lasts even longer you sell Ghostblade for Last Whisper (order can be mixed around depending on how much armor enemy team has).

Also, if your team needs more of an assassin/burst instead of tankier damage dealer (which is what my build gives you), you can just build a couple doran's blades into brutalizer into BT and then GA and Last Whisper. Jungle will be a bit slower b/c of lack of Wriggle's procs but she can still do it this way.

Generally when I jungle with Riven my build order goes something like this:

Wriggles > Mercs > Brutalizer > BF Sword > 5k gold win

She is way too good at picking up kills, especially if you land a few ganks.

Riven is only better than most top laners for that first level really, and then she's pretty average in lane until 6+ (and even then many champs can either stay with her or beat her out post 6). The more skillshots you have though, the harder she is to deal with.

She's just good all around though, has pretty flexible build, and scales very well. I just think for someone that can be so strong with so little gold, and is highly mobile, she'd be better off in jungle while someone much more farm dependent can take top.

KevinM, Pine made be start playing it. I'm pretty much the best (level 13) player ever. It was hell until I got Gragas, but now it's fun. My name on it is Big Skler, which fits awesomely with Gragas.

Did I mention Gragas is the best? Because he is. Gragas is the baddest mother****er on the block. Dude bellyflops *****es all day, every day and is the life of the party (which he is incidentally ready for AT ANY TIME). The name of the game should be League of Gragas and pals, except none of the other characters are cool enough to be Gragas' pal.

No other champ even compares. Especially Jax.

And to think I once asked for Riven to be given innate wall mobility.

Can you imagine?

Her innate bulk plus whatever you build plus a superb scaling shield. Wheeeee.

I've been running Exhaust Smite on Shyvana to help her gank. Works pretty well.

Me and my friends started a game called Support the auto-lock

I also want to try Suppor the Trynadamere. with Trynda Zilean Janna Soraka and Taric
