I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
It's possible to narrow down the new Legendary skin recipient now, if you check various sources. Should be soon, and I'm pretty excited for it. There was a list of leaks on the official forums for a day or two before it was removed; it mentioned strong hints towards who it would be that coincide with what Morello's said.

Do we actually have any other hints other than the letter A is the fourth letter in one of the champs skills? I'm curious (and I want to see if it's Lux or Nautilus who get the Legendary).

It looks like it'd be a tier 3 upgrade to the Hex Core. Based on that image, that image is taken circa Viktor at level 10.

Not even sure why you think it's a troll. I'm only curious what the game is like at a higher level since I never got to experience it, as compared to its main competitor.

Well, when one of the core rules of the thread is "Don't talk about DotA in the League thread" (and vice versa for the DotA thread), and you come in and ask people specifically to compare and contrast them, especially "at a high level", it's pretty blatant.

It would be slightly less blatant if you just started spewing racial slurs, honestly.

There has basically never been a time a DOTA player came into the LOL thread and asked the two to compare one another that it hasn't been an attempt at stupid fanboy poo poo-stirring. I presume the same is true in the DOTA thread which I follow less since none of my friends currently play it.

Custard is less likely to end with racial slurs and self-loathing so it's clearly inferior.

So that's why you wanted quotes, OP. Guess I spent those 5 minutes searching a certain post for nothing...

Oh, wait. I'll just post it here, because it was oh so wrong and dumb and wrong.

quote:

Yes, but underfarmed AP Nidalee is more valuable than 30 minute underfarmed AP Karma or most other underfarmed mid-turned-supports. Nidalee scales well into lategame with very few items because she can poke squishies from total safety.

Guess it wouldn't have been a good fit anyway since it requites some context (i.e. it's about pre-rework Nidalee).

I asked the same question in the Dota 2 thread and got a few meaningful replies, most were obviously very biased but I got some interesting points from ex-League players.

Only reason I asked the same question here was to be more informed instead of staying in the 'the other game is poo poo because I don't play it' frame of mind. 'Trolling' i.e. poo poo-stirring for its own sake was absolutely not my intention and I'm kind of surprised at the hostility my question provoked.

I guess this kind of attitude doesn't cut it in this thread (against the rules, too?). Was worth a try asking, at least.

You are someone who regularly posts in the DOTA thread and made comments about how boring you find LoL. The 'gosh, I didn't know, why are you all being so mean, the DOTA thread is so much nicer" act isn't fooling anyone.

If you want to know what people like about LoL, feel free to ask actual questions, but when a DOTA player wanders into the thread and starts trying to compare, people are genuinely not going to assume you're asking so innocently after every previous time has been someone trying to start stupid thread-derailing crap because it has happened multiple times. If you have question about the mechanics, metagame or general appeal, people will probably honestly answer, but ask them instead of trying to make it DOTA-related.

From what I read (community theorycrafting basically) it seemed the most likely suspects are Nautilus, Skarner and Xerath. With all the references to Ascension popping up on the PBE I'd think it would be Xerath. Maybe they'll do something like Valve did when they changed Skeleton King into Wraith King and tie in a temporary game-mode into a new piece of visual content (of course in this case it's a Legendary skin instead of a visual upgrade).

I think Pyrion Flax tried once or twice, but even he couldn't pretend that his angle wasn't basically "why would people play LoL when there is Dota2?" instead of being genuinely curious.

I'm pretty sure this is just as true, if not more so, since Nidalee support is still poo poo, if not shittier.

They can create a high quality skin to serve as the groundwork for a latter visual rework or for future skins. That's what happened to Garen. So I would still give Eve a chance.

Don't know about Koggie, because he has a variety of skins already.
