Hoping the Relic changes combined with Final Hour getting kicked in the rear end will finally boot Vayne out of the meta so I can go back to banning Janna or Zoe every game instead.

Q max rakan right now is so loving fun I hope they don't change poo poo. Bot lane is the healthiest it's ever been and I hope they balance traditional "support" items to accommodate ADC and support. I like that some ADCs take targons, but I want to live in a world where Caitlyn AND Lulu take spellthief's edge as well.

Not sure about Nami runes but Leona takes aftershock, whatever, they both take precision as secondary and get overheal / coup Both start relic, pots Leona builds like she normally would and Nami builds ap, skills are as normal. They both start Q then max W-E-Q, I think. The basic combo is for Leona to E in, Q, Nami bubbles right after and they kill that person It's really fun and really effective, my friend (who is a plat Nami) and I are something like 5 for 5 with this gimmick in ranked flex

Vayne being meta during tank metas is fine but if you can first pick/blind pick her without expecting to get poo poo on then she's way too strong. I think her pick rate and win rate stats bear this out at the moment.

The point of botlane is to have someone who can safely farm and scale. Running 2 supports doesn't seem like a recipe for success.

The point of botlane is to get a few early kills causing the other lanes to tilt horizontally because they're tired of having feeder bot lanes. (I kid, but it's way more true than it deserves to be) Dragongem fucked around with this message at 16:02 on Jan 18, 2018 |

If you're a duo that knows how to actually convert a gold lead in the depths of the MMR mines, you can make it work. At higher MMRs, the enemy duo's going to choose to not play into it, soak up farm at tower, and then run you over during teamfights once their ADC hits two items.

Running anti-carry kill or pressure lanes bot to take a carry out of the game has been a thing before (including as one of the few times Oldgot saw a use, briefly). It's not something you can do mindlessly without planning and trust though, and there's always the factor of "I could have picked Draven or MF and bullied just as hard".

There's no way new Swain won't be an overall improvement over old Swain, his new voice actor is miles ahead of the old one already and the VGU team has knocked every update I can recall out of the park.

BENGHAZI 2 posted:A more serious post: what is the job of mid and what kind of characters do you want in mid? It's the only lane I've never really gotten a grasp of the basics of Waveclear and map control. You have the most leeway out of any role - including the jungler - to influence the side lanes, either by suppressing the enemy midlaner via constantly shoving them in or by roaming to sidelanes to look for kills yourself. In siege situations, it's usually you and the ADC's job to clear waves to prevent them from pushing onto turret. My personal preference is for any of the traditional AP mages like Syndra, Taliyah, Orianna, Lux, or Ziggs, since they bring CC and zone control in addition to waveclear. Assassins are okay, but they, and the people who play them, tend to be very feast-or-famine, which can lead to games that feel completely unwinnable if the enemy team has an AP control mage and you've got a Zed who's three kills behind.

Tales of Woe posted:Vayne being meta during tank metas is fine but if you can first pick/blind pick her without expecting to get poo poo on then she's way too strong. I think her pick rate and win rate stats bear this out at the moment. I feel part of the problem is they overnerfed caitlyn to the point she is by far the weakest adc, without the presence of a early game bully vayne can just coast through laning and then outscale everyone. Going by the numbers, caits sitting at a 46% winrate overall and vayne is actually her biggest counter since she chases her down and outdamages too easily. I also feel like the recent buff to Final hour to extend the duration by 3 seconds on any kill or assist was too much, vayne is bullshit tier when she is constantly tumble stealthing and making people have to retarget her, which can result in either clicking the ground and mispositioning by mistake and giving vayne that 0.5 of a second delay to react to her reappearing, all the while making her invulnerable to autoattacks before she appears and just hoping your team has enough champs with untargeted AOE's to drop on where you guess she is. Vayne and Twitch are both in my bullshit tier of ADCS, both abuse stealth and both are some of the strongest right now. Ra Ra Rasputin fucked around with this message at 20:44 on Jan 18, 2018 |
