Servaetes posted:I think Mikujin that vid marks the true end of either of us getting to enjoy toplane Kench ever again. I mean, he's been on ban status for a bazillion years and they're gonna crush him with nerfs but it was fun to play that while nobody was noticing how good it is. I have gotten to play him twice in ranked this week (and crushed both those games as a result). That being said, if the PBE nerfs do go through that's a big slingshot in the opposite direction given the spike in power at 6 will be considerably less. He may still be viable because E is still just so good.

I think they're talking about hitting the shield duration too or some aspect of the E on the most recent iteration of the pbe tagged his passive duration from 7 to 5 and that 2/4/6% nerf is going to be live with 6.2, so it's going to hurt him a shitload

I have never ever played Tham Kench but that video and its upbeat beats make me wanna do so. Also as a side question I have a mate who is having amazing success with Heimer top with Zz'rot. I stopped playing with Zz'rot was introduced and have never seen a reason to get it: what's it for and why is it so good in Silver top games?

It pushes really hard if you place it somewhere you can protect it. In games of GROUP MID ALL MID GO MID it gets free objectives

A big part of Tahm's ground game is tripping you up with Q slows/stuns and removing your ability to fight back with W. So long as they don't touch the base damage on W and the shield values/duration on E, I'll continue to pick him if he's open.

Gridlocked posted:I have never ever played Tham Kench but that video and its upbeat beats make me wanna do so. It shits out void minions that scale with your defensive stats while it's up. It's a pretty good defensive item in and of itself thanks to how much armor and magic resist it gets. The void minions make lanes push very hard if it gets left alone so if the other team ignores it they'll lose towers to it.

Biowarfare posted:whats ur username i need to level a character to 30 too You should know it's my only account and while I haven't played ranked to know for sure (obv), I'm probably playing at a silver level of competency. If that doesn't deter you, it's Nanker Phelge. If that does deter you it's ok, no hard feelings.

I kind of get why they are really strict on which division you end up in after placement games. I went 5-5 and dropped from plat 2 to gold 5. After 6 games, I'm already up to gold 3, though, so that kinda defeats the whole point of dropping almost 10 brackets.

What's good against Nasus? I can poop on his lane with Olaf but I feel like I can't teamfight as well as I'd like to particularly if people aren't on the same page since he's completely all in and doesn't have meaningful peel. I used to run Gnar into that but the last 5 times I've lost that one hard.

I bet you Graves shits on Nasus since you don't super duper care about Wither and you can gently caress with him with smoke screen.

Graves obviously (because he shits on everyone), Malphite would be decent. Renekton works him over early but drops off later. Or go full counter-troll pick and play Singed.

Renekton into nasus is actually not as good for renekton as you'd think. You naturally push the wave into his tower building fury/doing your combo and then he just farms under turret

Darius is good against nasus. Panth will bully him off the creeps entirely and can freeze but falls behind if you can't get your team ahead.

Yeah Renekton was always a bit of an iffy pick unless you really knew your poo poo. Olaf works very very well for denying Nasus, I just feel like he's underwhelming at contributing to the team sometimes, and the nerf to Tiamat hurts. Malphite is something I'll try and maybe Darius too although wither seems like it would be a problem since his aspd is already so bad. Cleaver reliant champs in particular just seem kind of iffy vs Nasus since he's going to rush a FH anyway

Cleaver reliant champs in particular just seem kind of iffy vs Nasus since he's going to rush a FH anyway In Darius case, he gets enough attacks out to make Nasus have a bad time. Cleave adds his bleeds, his W is an AA reset and a slow of its own, etc. It may not be Old Darius, but it's got more sustain so there's that. On an unrelated note, I enjoyed pre-rework Darius even if he was very feast or famine. They should add a champ that is just old Darius kit. They could even make it Darius and Draven's dad or something. Darius Sr., the true "Old Darius". Plus he would be so stupid with new masteries and items.

i feel like you sorta have to mention rene vs nasus just becaue it's probably the most iconic top lane matchup, like ahri vs zed is for mid lane. (even if renek and nasus haven't been played much for a few seasons now)

Her flip should help against his dash, and she's got longer range, but his ult contributes more to a fight and he gets a bunch of free stats. Have you played that matchup?

I like to counter Nasus by just playing and he's a real poo poo champ so generally he loses
