Fiora is cool Poppy is cool and I'm the coolest of them all. I really like Kanye he's fun, is he actually good?? What do the players at my true elo (gold+) think? Edit: old fiora ult was the best I agree with the guy on the last page. They need to bring back juggernaut ult and more dota ults in general. Thanks for your patience with my edit. Gowby out

Can any top laners give me (silver league) some tips on deciding when to teleport and tracking the team? Do you just diligently use your F keys to quickly switch to other players? I just had a game as Renekton where I came out a bit ahead of Jax from the laning phase but didn't feel like I fully used the advantage. Our support + mid kept getting dunked walking blind into their jungle, but there were a few cases where at least 3 on our team were itching to engage and got splattered by 5 before I could even teleport in - it felt like I was just too late on starting the teleport. On the other hand, there were several times when they really wanted to go 3v5 (with our jungler desperately trying to get to the fight) and I figured teleporting in would just feed another kill. In that case, do I just push the side lane I'm in as much as I safely can and back off while we recover?

Firebert posted:I hate Fiora's new kit, %hp true damage is an abomination that should never be combined The %hp true damage is extremely conditional and difficult to achieve consistently. The %hp true damage is thrown on a fragile melee character that has to throw themselves into specific positions to strike the vitals. She also does very little damage if she doesn't just go full AD, which means she remains a pile of tissue paper. It's trivially easy to prevent her ult from getting all four hits if you are aware of where she is trying to strike you and move those points away from her/towards a wall. CC will also destroy her if you bait out her W. Fiora also struggles a lot when she is ganked. Her ability to deal with two people at once is very poor since she can only target a single person at a time to kill them and pray her ult goes off on the toplaner before she just gets her 1200 hp murdered by the jungler/toplane combo. Yasuo farts out a windwall and blocks all your projectiles if you are a Wizard or a Shooter. Fiora blocks only damage and CC on herself and does not absorb projectiles. Also, since bramble vest now exists, tanks hardly struggle against Fiora when they will win every trade ever since she takes damage from hitting them.

Basically, unless you are criminally fed as Fiora, teamfights loving suck for her. 1v1s, 2v2s, and short skirmishes are where she thrives the most.

Phayray posted:Can any top laners give me (silver league) some tips on deciding when to teleport and tracking the team? Do you just diligently use your F keys to quickly switch to other players? Just keep an eye on the minimap and watch for sudden swings in movement, as that usually indicates a fight's broken out. Watch the movement of your jungler, too: if they're going bottom, there's a good chance that either they're planning a countergank or are about to get counterganked themselves. You should TP into a fight if any enemies there are low enough to not put you in peril if you go in 1v2/1v3 or if the rest of your team is healthy enough to follow up on your engage. In the later stages of the game, it's best to hold TP until you're dead certain that your team's about to get engaged on (such as if there's a Kled ult or something similar) and that they can't or won't disengage successfully. I'd recommend against trying to do big TP plays unless your team's reasonably on the same page, as it's pretty common for you to get a good angle and then have nothing come of it because your team isn't willing to commit. Don't be afraid to ask for good wards to TP to, either. A lot of people in Silver either don't trust their top's ability to TP or don't understand how important having a good ward to TP to is. Just ask politely in chat to ward their lane-side bush and use that to TP in.

They got first inhib, but we managed a few good picks that we turned into two barons. Final teamfight left their team with Lissandra and my team with Me, our vayne (With GA off cooldown), and syndra, we already had their inhib down so it was just a matter of not dying to Lissandra and it was GG.

Rygar201 posted:Does anyone ITT play Elise semi regularly and feel like typing some basic Elise words? Off the top of my head I go 12/18/0 with thunderlords. Standard jungle page with aspd quints/ad/armor/mr. Start W>Q>E max R>Q>W>E. Make sure your spiders are always tanking camp hits. For most buffs you can get two sets of spiders early game. Finish camps in spider form so you get the move speed on the way to the next camp. Raptors are your enemy so avoid if you can. Her level 3 power spike is one of the strongest in the jungle so gank asap. Gank combo is (human) E>W>Q>R>Q>W. Usually you can use your spider E shortly after since most enemies will retaliate with cc immediately. I prefer to build AP heavy. AP jungle item, sorc shoes, liandrys, rylais, hextech belt, maybe a voidstaff. But not sure what a more appropriate build is. If you get to very late game you become fairly useless in teamfights. Look for picks with E and blow up squishies with your combo, but she doesn't scale as hard as most others so you'll be at a disadvantage as the game goes on. Anything you're looking for specifically?

After 3-4 rough games, 2 of which were Teemo top (who got owned during the laning phase and may as well have not existed the rest of the game), another of which was Nunu smite top who also got dunked on then wandered my jungle taking camps to try to catch up, I just had a solid/relatively close 2 wins, one as Renekton top and the other as Jinx. In the latter, my Janna support started flaming me right off the bat, before minions even spawned, then quickly left me by myself against Ashe/Blitz to "roam" and feed about 3 kills. Despite being put way behind, we got a few good teamfights and quickly knocked down their mid inhib, then spent 20 minutes running around the map, dying, doing the silver league thing. Their top Kled was 11/1 by 18 mins and the teamfights basically came down to whether or not I could avoid getting massacred by him, somehow I avoided him at the end and we won a fight just outside their base, sealing the win. I ended up muting the support when she wouldn't stop blah blahing and left my lane and that made the game a whole lot better. She continued to flame me in the lobby after we won. Some people, man.

It's like those guys I had yesterday, looked me up to see my two losses (But not my two wins, guess their info was an hour behind?) and decided to chew me out before we even reached the ban phase. Anyway, won my last match vs Garen. One more win and I'll at least have the same record as the last time I played ranked in season 4. Edit: *Sigh* lost another match to infighting on my team.

For the game. Not for you, you lazy healer support player. That’s a strange tear change. But isn’t it 2 every 8 on live? Maybe 4 every16 was too good and they just want to buff it a little bit. It’s a good change too; will easily stack about 5-8% percent faster.

Sorry that was about my last placement match, I can see why you might have been confused though. Yeah the changes to Ardent don't really hurt her as much as other supports that might use it, since she's great no matter what, season 1 and into the future.
