I've said this about five times in previous threads, but I exclusively played TB because the majority of the time I play League it's because I get an itch to play a specific champion. With TB I knew I could do that 100% of the time, and it's not like the wait times were that much worse. It's just annoying because LoL is the only game where there's a significant chance you just won't get to play the way you want. Its like me popping in Skyrim and the game going "Sorry, you can't play a mage for two hours, gotta play a warrior" or something.

That in mind, I think the two role thing is way better than Pick-Order Draft, and it it's nice to be able to actually play ranked knowing I'll get at least one of the roles I want. I just can't wait until the release Actual Solo Queue instead of this Dynamic bullshit that puts me with 4 non-English speaking French people in Skype against another 4-man in Skype.

Riot should replace Blind Pick with Team Builder.

I really want Jhin to be good since I like his theme and his skill set, but I don't think he'll really compete with the other meta ADCs unless he gets a buff to his numbers or his reload time.

And as for Jhin mid, there are far too many mobile burst champs that would eat him up for breakfast.

Everyone knows that PBE isn't for balance or bug checks. It's a new champ and skin showcase.

Don't think they have a date yet but I'm slightly less excited for them now that they've said how often you they drop

I knew that they'd have a really low drop rate, but what was the number Riot gave?

And I could live without the Valve-esque chest system, I just want the new launcher client.

You get a chest when either you or someone you've queued with gets an S(-/+) rank. Once per week, per champion, per season. So you can get at most 4 a month. Not great

And we don't really know how rare keys will be

Oh right, I remember reading that. Since it's based off the post game rankings they might as well have used a roulette system anyway, since that's what the grading system feels like.

They should just nerf his phoenix stance so that tiger becomes the go-to build path.

As far as I can tell, jungle and support are the most wanted roles. I always get one or the other if they're options in my queue. I would wager mid is probably sought after alongside top.

I think role popularity is probably mid>top>jungle>adc>support.

I think I may stop playing ranked for a while. This dropped me from promos to Bronze 1 all the down to 0 LP Bronze 3. And the worst thing is I won my lane most of the time in these games

I had a similar experience. I had a string of losses that took me from silver 2 to silver 4. Just keep playing, friend, for I am now climbing my way back up.

in other news, ranked queue is hosed and i can't get jungle because everyone wants to play jungle because ???

Apparently there's a bug with her Q that causes her to literally fly in one direction until you cast another skill.

Seems it's not quite as dramatic as I was told. She simply gets stuck in an animation which seems to limit her use of flash and maybe other abilities/items. There is a pretty hilarious interaction of her getting sent sky high from knock ups though.

no silly

all champions are coded as two minions stacked ontop of each other

everyone knows that

Next champ after the sun dragon is a caster minion on top of a melee minions shoulders, which is standing on top of a siege minion, and they're wearing one big trench coat.

tbh there should be an actual minion champ, maybe a regular minion got hit with nosher's slime and he grew???

They should re-imagine Rumble as a siege minion who's tired of basically being champ fodder, and now he's out for revenge.

I came up with an idea the other night of an item like banner of command except it lets you voltron up combinations of map minions and gives them stats based on what you crammed in there

Fuse five siege minions to become the Daedalus summon from Golden Sun.

triumph.gg but it kinda sucks, imo

I still want to know what that site is that someone screencapped that showed winrate by time of day! That one seems great!

Do you remember what those stats said? I seem to get people who are much more chilled, and much more wins during mid morning compared to evenings, and I'm wondering if there's some weight behind that or if it's just confirmation bias.

If you think the Riot actually gives a poo poo about keeping toxic players out of the game, watch this series where Imaqtpie and iWillDominate get trolled by a feeding Teemo/Katarina for like a dozen games back to back.

A better example would be Discoheat, who has an entire series on youtube dedicated to toxic little babies in league.
