Grand Old Thread: League of Legends!

[Leacero]

I may not make it to the inhouse tonight b/c of circumstances that have just arisen.

The irony. I guess I can never post here again.

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

Regardless of the Nasus VA stuff, the model and new skin are pretty awesome.

 

[Plum]

Not a fan of Infernal Nasus.
He looks like a silly WoW character with those pauldrons.
I do like the visual update though.

 

[Hot_ArmS]

just starting a game, gonna join inhouse after

 

[Leacero]

man, no one's even on for it.

 

[adumbrodeus]

The voice update is just eh >_>

 

[JTB]

So what champions might be viable as support next season? I really want to make support panth a thing, but who knows if it will work without knowing the meta

 

[Plum]

Support Panth is pretty cheese, but I've seen it work plenty of times even this season.

 

[Leacero]

panth never support, always yolo carry, even in duo lane

 

[Ussi]

Riot is actually giving supports utility scaling like i said they would need too

I think Zyra will come back to be best scaling support since building damage isn't bad on her considering her scaling is better now as well.


I'm gonna try GP support though


Volibear might be better. A lot of silly supprts might become more viable just cause supports can snowball more money

 

[Hot_ArmS]

janna best support

 

[Sephiroths Masamune]

Like literally the most true post ever. She's just too good, yet no one plays her.

 

[Z'zgashi]

I duo with a Janna main. The only problem with her is that, while she is really good, she's more a defensive 'keep the adc safe' pick moreso than a snowbally offensive champ which is what you generally want in solo queue. Shes really good in competitive/5v5/top level play, but you dont see her much in solo because of that.

 

[Plum]

You can't really say that Janna is the best support because she might not do what you want your support to do.
If you want to keep your carries safe, then I do think she's the best at that though.

 

[:mad:]

Like literally the most true post ever. She's just too good, yet no one plays her.

13% pick rate is still pretty good. She receives a fair amount of play.

 

[john!]

reginald is retiring. TSM's new mid laner is bjergsen.

 

[Plum]

Bout time Reginald went the way of Hotshot.
There's just no way to be both a top level player AND run a developing business.

 

[adumbrodeus]

Pretty much, as I said when people were talking about how hotshot should retire centuries ago, pro league needs pro management and being a player causes too much divided attention and conflicts of interests to do either as effectively as possible.

 

[Zano]

if I ever get panth support on my team I might as well just afk because I've never once seen it win.

 

[Plum]

Panth support - Step 1: Get kills bot lane. Step 2: Roam. Step 3: Hope the game doesn't go too long.

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

This so much.

Though Lulu is a close second.

Supports are starting to get more specific niches they fit which is good for balance and more rounded picks, Janna might have the highest win rate, but she isn't great at doing somethings other supports can also do.

 

[Hot_ArmS]

Janna season 4 stats look scary

 

[Player-3]

man heimerdinger is pretty op

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

How did you end the game at 8 minutes?

 

[Ussi]

Did they all just give up and let you push mid?

 

[Zano]

diamond 1 games never cease to amaze me with the trolling.

 

[Z'zgashi]

Lol at 8mins

 

[Espy Rose]

Heimer's kinda stupid right now. I'm glad most of the ones I've seen are on my team.

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

So is Sivir apparently.

 

[Kuro~]

glad i play the treelines where he's ass and free wins

 

[Player-3]

the reason it was 8 minutes is because we invaded, got 4 kills, then rengar counterganked top and got a double kill

they said push mid

so we did

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

Weak sauce.

I'd never give up a ranked game.

 

[Espy Rose]

I'd probably do the same thing.
I'd venture a guess to say that at that level of play, even just giving 2 kills early can be abused to its fullest.

They lost 6 kills right at the beginning.
I wouldn't want to deal with it either.

 

[Hot_ArmS]

id imagine ppl at that level dont throw as hard as in like silver

 

[Player-3]

u would be very wrong about that

 

[Espy Rose]

Throws probably hurt harder in Diamond anyways.
You see a throw from Bronze-Gold, and the team that profits then pings Dragon or buffs.

 

[Leacero]

P3 what do the heimer changes do for your patented Dream Team Heimer support.

 

[Zano]

zyra heimer bot

sounds, like something.

 

[Player-3]

i could give you a detailed report on heimer support after the changes but here's the synopsis:
