Grand Old Thread: League of Legends!

I don't really ever remembering them busting out AP Kog in their poke comps. They also used it to come back in The Champions tournament too.

 

[tarmacker]

I liked when they used Trundle's pillar better.

Yay my dream is now unavailable reality

 

[MacD]

i guess congrats to jpak and team getting 3rd

even if you had a silly trip there

 

[Vyke]

CLG just scurred.

 

[Ussi]

I'll go ahead and say congrats as well jpak! You guys still had impressive games to watch!

 

[john!]

congrats from me too. you guys are surprisingly good for how little recognition you get.

also i love the fact that a poke comp is viable in this meta. even though it's annoying as **** to play against, the more variety there is in the competitive scene, the better.

 

[PhantomX]

JPak played best game of his career against CLG, I saw it. Some revolutionary stuff.

Yay my dream is now unavailable reality

I need halp laning against Yorick..

who do I use and how do I do it?

 

[Wave⁂]

Trundle Cho'gath

uhhhh

 

[Teh Brettster]

Garen? Nidalee? Nasus? Whoever can outlast Yorick's mana pool before a trip back? But then if he has teleport...

 

[Espy Rose]

My Drunk Lulu is better than Dphat.

 

[Mogwai]

Xin, problem solved.

 

[Ussi]

How do I exactly trade against Yorick then? (As Xin)

 

[Espy Rose]

My drunk Lulu is better than mogwai, ;applejack:

 

[Zero_Gamer]

My favorite thing about Xin is that his Q makes him immune to blinds.

 

[Mogwai]

How do I exactly trade against Yorick then? (As Xin)

roll your face on the keyboard and right click on him.

 

[Shaya]

^ Really helpful post.

 

[Mogwai]

thanks, I try.

 

[Omni]

I find it really difficult to carry solo-queue games with Trundle. He seems to be more of a pre-made type jungler? Really good in pre-mades? Not so much with random baddies?

 

[Mogwai]

I hate trundle in all circumstances.

I think he's only good to CP Yorick top or in dedicated poke teams.

 

[PhantomX]

He is also good on Mordekaiser or other "focus down one high priority target" teams.

 

[Mogwai]

Why though? His ult is a lot worse than other **** at killing low resist targets and is only good in that sort of style if you're focusing down a giant bruiser like Irelia or something. If we're talking about blowing up a ranged DPS, I'd rather have like WW or Nocture or Jarman or Maokai to jump on the ranged DPS and beat their face in.

 

[Shaya]

Trundle is one of those few characters who become ultra god tier late game though.

Although you already mentioned ww.
So... yeah.

 

[Frolossus]

would trundle be effective at disengaging from a morg/skarner comp?

 

[Tmacc]

Lost a 1 hour and 10 minute ranked game as Nocturne.

I was the only one positive on my team, barely kept us in it...but it's super frustrating to lose those types of games.

Herp.

I don't think I'll ever conquer the 1400 range elo and get to gold...derp.

 

[PhantomX]

He is very good against comps that have champs that have to run at your team, or if they only have one non strong initiator jumper... however Morg is the exception because of her black shield.

 

[Ussi]

Possible to use an AP top to lane against Yorick?

 

[Mogwai]

Possible to use an AP top to lane against Yorick?

I think a 9/21/0 specced vlad probably beats Yorick top, but I'm not really sure.

 

[DallasPhat]

IMO, want to beat yorick just fight him at level 1. Also I feel like rumble does well against him but I don't play top.

 

[Bartolon]

Riven does well early, and can get a lead. Swain does well with blue buff (for your question)

 

[KevinM]

But I'm not a topper

 

[Omni]

The Trundle games I've been running have seemed incredibly difficult to carry early/mid game-ish. It's much easier to carry baddies with Nocturne, Skarner, Udyr, Lead Singer, and Maokai. Tho the games where I had really good teammates and they could properly gank off my pillar Trundle just grows into a monster. Trinity Force + Frozen Mallet = you gawn.

Who do you guys think are the strongest jungle carries capable of carrying bad teammates?

But I'm not a topper

Spoiler

just in case you thought no one would catch that

 

[Mogwai]

Warwick, Mundo, Shyvana, Udyr.

Also I think Trinity + Mallet builds are the stupidest builds in the entire game. 1 or the other, both is ****ing stupid.
