No, Intel OP

 

[Pikaville]

Sorry to hear that man.

I know that feel though.

So should I have Xerath's masteries as 9/0/21?

 

[Wave⁂]

Nah, she is underpowered and easily outclassed by proper AP carries. Her cooldowns are too long and the reward isn't enough to justify the difficulty in landing her skills. She needs farm to be the least bit useful (support Lux just doesn't work) and late game she's only useful for her laser as a poke. She's one of the worst characters in the game.

 

[SuperBowser]

I think support lux is very strong unless the opposing lane has soraka/sona. Her burst + cc + vision is nice.

Its a cool Ez skin but... I wouldn't call that Legendary. Idk, not enough new cool.

Corporate Mundo? Brolaf? THOSE are legendary.

 

[Ussi]

Yeah

Hmm

Well i'm using Annie.. I keep running out of Mana.. Am i using skills too much? I do focus on using Q only to last hit.. So i'm probably using incinerate too much..

 

[PhantomX]

That Pulsefire skin is LEGIT.

And I particularly enjoy the hologram dance party, haha.

 

[Teh Brettster]

Ussi-- Use a lot of Q for last hits. When your passive is charged up, just last hit autoattack. Enemy in lane gets close, stun them and use the cone. Rinse/repeat.

Then lvl6, wait for your jungler to gank, stun with tibbers, burst. When you get the kill, you have time to go back, buy, and heal/mana regen.

Other ways to not run out of mana are ask your jungler for blue buff, buy RoA or Archangel staff.

Well, random queue isn't gonna help me with that.. especially at my low level of 6.

Sometime i'm noticing is i auto attack automatically when i'm in range of an enemy minion too, that's been messing me up with trying to last hit with auto attack.

 

[Leacero]

Press S and you'll stop without auto attacking anything, alternatively keep running around with right clicks to stay mobile while not autoing any minions.

 

[Ragnar0k]

just click a bunch dood

 

[Omni]

Should I do Wolves -> Blue with Lee Sin or Small Golems -> Red?

 

[Wave⁂]

Whichever one is closer to the lane you want to gank at level 2

Though I'm pretty sure Red is better regardless because of the slow and you don't really need mana

I'll try this out, it'll be helpful for me

[Plum]

Listening to Saintvicious try to convince Doublelift that support Dinger is OP.
This is amazing.

 

[PhantomX]

Wraiths to red to gank.

 

[ArcNatural]

Should I do Wolves -> Blue with Lee Sin or Small Golems -> Red?

You could start red first with a leash and gank at level 2.

 

[Omni]

I see.

Wraiths to red to gank.

Save smite for Red? Or use on big wraith?

You could start red first with a leash and gank at level 2.

Yeah, but I feel like the new meta is to start your jungle at either Wolf/Mini-Golem/Wraiths before jumping to Blue/Red.

 

[Deleted member]

aggressive ganker --> wraiths (help from mid after u pull aggro) --> red (get a leash/smite here)

this frees up bot lane taking double golems (blue side) and allows u to quickly gank and be a douche early on

after you secure kills/summoners, continue being a douche specifically to top lane and piss off/**** top lane enough it becomes 4v5

 

[Mogwai]

wraith -> red, save smite for red. unless you take the smite mastery, you should almost never use smite on small camps.

 

[Saki-]

Wraiths to red to gank.

Might start doing this from now on. Top always seems so free in the first few minutes

My only qualm with using a touch pad is i'm can't mash click with it. I'm comfortable with a touch pad otherwise from playing MMORPGs

 

[adumbrodeus]

So server constantly was dcing mid-game with no warning. I look in the forums, turns out the server has crashed.


Annoyed cause it was a competent team that I actually would've like to talk to post-game. Also, cause I ended up giving up a number of completely unnecessary death while it was in "barely functional" mode.

 

[MacD]

i'll take my loss forgiven though

no ELO loss is always nice

it was funny cause every single person in the game dc'd

You do more clicking and screenshifting in this than anything else, so a mouse is most beneficial compared to MMO.

 

[Pikaville]

Then no one answered my question

 

[DarkDragoon]

Offense tree > Utility Tree for most champs, probably also applicable to Xerath.

Hmm, i'll consider it if i choose to get competitive with the game. For now this is just something fun to do win or lose.

 

[Mogwai]

The only mage I take utility on is Ryze and that's because his AP Scaling isn't so great and I want to hit 40% CDR off of just my Q's passive, Frozen Heart and Masteries. I don't play many mages though, so yea...

 

[fkacyan]

Ryze with extra spell vamp...

Brrr.....

 

[PhantomX]

Ryze so OP. Don't know why he's not in solo q more. I'm picking him up.

Pro tips to playing him

1. Get in teamfight
2. Put all four fingers on QWER
3. Mash all buttons repeatedly
4. ???
5. Profit!
