[Kuro~]

man i'm getting alot of use out of this tpa nunu skin with all these udyrs around.

 

[Player-3]

how is valk not amazing 50 mana for like 1200 range dash the cd is high at low ranks but w/e

 

[Espy Rose]

So many Udyrs. So much kiting.

 

[PhantomX]

Yeah, but aren't they so cool to watch run at you?

 

[KevinM]

While that helps somewhat I still don't see him being better than most if not all adcs.

Perhaps if I see him in some big tournament or being used by the Dream Team here and actually wrecking face will I be fully convinced that he's viable.

DREAM TEAM AsSEMBLEEEEE

 

[Player-3]

red leader standing by

 

[JTB]

wes doesnt like us anymore

 

[Boofy!]

sometimes when my buddy is feeling extra trolly he'll build like 4 zephyrs on Ziliean and run around at perma 700 movespeed, doesn't do anything else but its still good entertainment.

 

[Z'zgashi]

I played a game like 2 months ago where an Udyr built 6 Zephyrs lmao.

 

[john!]

attack speed zilean is best zilean

2.5 bread crumbs per second baby

 

[john!]

also i played like 20 games of dota 2 over the past week. i love automatically winning/losing my lane based on whether my autoattack is stronger than the opponent's just kidding, denying is a ****ing awful mechanic

[Zero_Gamer]

Doesn't Corki's jump scale with movement speed? It's like he jumps almost less than a Vayne tumble when slowed.

 

[Z'zgashi]

No... lol

 

[Zero_Gamer]

There was a time when Tristana's jump was affected by slows. It's not too out-of-the-question to ask.

Probably cause it's very slow reletive to the other dashes. I'm 90% sure it has the tris problem (really being at the starting point til the dash ends) as well. Also it's 800, which I believe barely edges out arcane shift for longest dash/blink but shift is a substantially lower cd ability with the ability to reduce it further, is much less time in transit, and has a number of other mechincal fringe benefits like being a blink and having ininterruptable animation frames at the beginning. I dunno, just doesn't seem to have the utility of other dashes, useful when you need to be just a bit faster then you move and don't care about sacrificing dps, or when you need to get over a fall, but it doesn't seem to have anywhere near the clutch repositing teamfight potential of other dashes.

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

I will be banning udyr in all of my games for a while.

 

[Player-3]

ezreals escape is broken comparing it to other escapes is laughable at best lol

Dota 2 pretty much sux

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

I tried playing it myself, it felt like playing smash 64.

I felt stiff when playing the game, like not fludd like league does.

Also gog, ranged vs Garen/Udyr feels ugg.

 

[adumbrodeus]

ezreals escape is broken comparing it to other escapes is laughable at best lol

this is true, but compare it's utility to vayne tumble, or graves quickdraw, or cait net, they're all very quick dashes so they can be used to reliably reposition in teamfights in addittion to being used as an escape/pursuit tool. Tris' jump has that issue as well, but not to the same degree since it's considerably faster (though if corki jump doesn't have the "i'm still here til the jump ends" issue MAY make it edge out). Sure it's long, but I'd take the ability to use my dash to easily dodge skillshots or to kite divers on an adc any day.

 

[Niko45]

Trist jump has way more cast time than corki valk o_O

And vayne tumble can't jump walls. gg

you guys prob playing corki wrong ur supposed to go bot with rumble support, rush sorc shoes, max Valk, go ham at 6 carpet of doom

 

[adumbrodeus]

Hmmm, apparently tris jump is .2 seconds longer at max range, since it's frontloaded due to cast time, it's worse for repositioning. Should probably play more tris.

Ya vayne can't jump over walls, but I'd argue that effective repositioning is more important in teamfights then escapes and effective repositioning is vayne's teamfight hat. Actually that's the entire point of what I have been arguing, out of the dashes and blinks for the adcs that have them, tris and corki are the only ones which aren't really effective repositioning tools, they're pursuit and escaping tools.

 

[Espy Rose]

I will be banning udyr in all of my games for a while.

Why? Most Udyrs suck.

 

[KuroganeHammer]

udyr is too snowbally

i might start playing ashe though for a while

this will be fun, i can practise my kiting

 

[adumbrodeus]

Why? Most Udyrs suck.

Half of bans are "dear god, don't play this champ team"

 

[Wave⁂]

Why? Most Udyrs suck.

Having a sucky Udyr on your team is sub-optimal

 

[KuroganeHammer]

you guys prob playing corki wrong ur supposed to go bot with rumble support, rush sorc shoes, max Valk, go ham at 6 carpet of doom

I see lots of ADC Corki players Valkyrie into the entire enemy team, maybe they should all play AP Bruiser Corki?

Better yet, Proxy AP Corki.

 

[Player-3]

proxy corki sounds hype u valk the creeps free 6cs

 

[Plum]

Starting Doran's Blade on Tiger Udyr is hella sick.
The fact that it gives you AD, not an on-hit effect makes your early objective control super strong, and of course just bumps up Tiger's scaling early on. You can take a tower disgustingly fast level 2.

 

[Niko45]

Valk in, zhonyas for huge baits/initiates, free win ensues.

 

[Asdioh]

450 (+ 100% AP)
I didn't realize Corki's Valk did that much damage. Oh god my text color.

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

Why? Most Udyrs suck.

I don't want people on my team in ranked calling jungle and then being bad at it because they wanted to play legendary skin udyr in ranked.

I do the same thing with new champions.

 

[Geoberos]

Wanted to chill with the lag tonight, but normals matched up against apparently Bassem & co.
I remembered why I dropped Galio top.

 

[Soft Serve]

The feels where you get flamed for doing what your team told you to. I got forced into a lane swap into a 4/0 ryze with double buffs, and then got yelled at for trading kills with him when he dove me. Sometimes the lol community makes me want to play nothing but 5's.

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

So morello said S4 changes are gonna be heavily focused on supports and junglers.

Mostly to fix the gold problems both roles have.

 

[Ussi]

The problem with supports will never go away until there is a ward cap on wards on the map. With sightstone and wriggles not counting towards the cap.

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

Or make pink wards disappear.

Oracles is in a good spot for this change.

 

[ShroudedOne]

The problem with supports will never go away until there is a ward cap on wards on the map. With sightstone and wriggles not counting towards the cap.

Can you explain why you say this? I'm curious. Though it probably has to do with them having to buy so many wards because the other team is/oracles/something?
