The skin looks great in game and the sound effects are nifty after playing it for a bit, I'll be picking it up but the splash is pretty dire.

Yaay, time for lots of posts about how a splash art is bad and anatomically wrong (and probably disrespectful to women). The skin itself is boring and poo poo though, so it suits Cait pretty good. MF supremacy! Her and her improbable rack.

at first the skin had less armor and was more easily recognizable as Caitlyn but then everyone complained about that so..

I'm glad to see that they're focusing on Viktor's Q and R in addition to his passive, as they are by far his least interesting skills, what with being shittier clones of other champions' skills and all. And headhunter Caitlyn continues to be a skin that can be ignored, but really all of the headhunter skins are pretty lame. Except arguably Nidalee's, but that might be more because the rest of her skins are bad or just recolors.

Yeah Bewitching Nidalee owns, I like all of the Headhunter skins so far though. I think Karma should get one too, that'd be rad. They should do more team skins.

Nobody's solo queue matches (no matter what tier they are) are important enough to warrant wasting 9 other people's time with long pauses. I have nightmare flashbacks back to games of Warcraft III or customs in that where you would just sit in games for 10-15 minutes while people disconnected and reconnected and it would just keep counting down forever keeping the game perpetually paused. I have no desire to see a pause function ever implemented in this game.

Like, a 2 minute pause on disconnection in case it was a weird spot or whatever, but after that all bets are off.

Eh, no, every time you look at a feature you have to think "what would a "trolly" 14 year old do with this?" Giving one person the ability to spitefully pause the game any number of times during the match is obnoxious. Even if it were only allowed to happen once per match, you'd better believe it would happen every time you pissed someone off.

Giving one person the ability to spitefully pause the game any number of times during the match is obnoxious. Its a question of cost effectiveness. Would the more beneficial uses outweigh the negative uses? Or there are even other things you could do. Like add a pauses system where anyone can unpause and you can only pause a few times per player. So if anyone disagrees the game is immediately unpaused. If we develop a culture amongst players, where it is expected that we don't unpause for a few minutes if some d/cs then we get a benefit with out a very minor cost.

It works fine in Dota 2 and yet, despite having a worse player base and the feature having nothing to do with gameplay, it will be utterly horrible in League and turn every match into complete poo poo.

I wouldn't say that, even there it works on the honor system, that is the enemy team won't be a dick and just unpauses the game every time. Knowing the LoL playerbase, pause in these games wouldn't change much. Also it is commonly used for taunting ("any last words?") or for "tactical pause".

In my, admittedly limited, Dota 2 experience, pausing is 'when it's the enemy team that has a member DC, you're expected to politely wait, but when your fed carry DCs, the enemy team constantly unpauses because they don't wanna wait.' I don't care either way.

Is there a consensus on karthus jungle? I mean, i figure its a gimmick but it kind of works since i can do it and i almost never jungle. Also your first clear on vi and xin, is it supposed to be slow and get you low or am i doing something very wrong here?

I usually do not write about this type of poo poo, but man that Headhunter Cait splash-art really does look terrible. I really do not care about the whole CIS/feminist/whatimstudyingatuniversitythisweek angle. I just think it looks poorly done and stupid. The weapon she is holding looks like it would be ridiculously unbalanced (front weighted) to hold, for some reason she appears to be "shouldering" (obviously the wrong term for her particular method of holding it) the butt of the weapon in the crook of her elbow in some odd position, the weapon appears to be about 3 times too big for her to actually use, and her head literally seems to be displaced from her body (and from where her head would ordinarily be if she were firing a real rifle type of weapon, but again, that may be what you get when you fire it from the crook of your elbow). I am so artistically untalented that I usually cannot see the "spine doesn't match an appropriate angle" type of things people here rant about with most of these, but even I can see at a glance that this one is terrible.

Tac pauses are real and they are horrible. I don't think League will have any problem with it the same way that Dota does, though.

Nightblue (yeah, I know) made it work by going pure tank and timing initiations with Mega Gnar form. Having Mega Gnar land on you and CC-chain you is pretty brutal and the boulder can actually be pretty good at sniping a fleeing target (Boulder at the start, pick it up during CC combo, boulder is back for the snipe under the tower). Pre-6 ganks were pretty nonexistent and his clear pre-Quill Coat leaves him bleeding worse than Brand which is saying something so if they have an invade-capable jungler you're hosed.
