If I last played extensively in Season 2, how different is LoL now? Different, very different, or a totally different loving game?

I kind of want to play again. I have a ton of heroes, a full runebook, etc.

Any chillbros ITT?

When all of your lanes are pushed, this basically gives you free reign to invade and/or track the enemy jungler via deep warding so that you can set up counterganks. But how you do this really depends on whether you're playing a dueling jungler like Lee, a control jungler like Ivern, or a farming jungler like Amumu.

What kind of Jungler is Yi now? I have been a Yi Tard since pre S 1 and I don't plan on stopping now, hah

Yi powerfarms the jungle and only shows up to gank lanes that very nicely present him a kill on a silver platter, and then he goes right back to the jungle until suddenly he is getting triple kill resets and backdooring inhibitors.

As I fondly remember it. I just need to learn the new structure, I hear they added camps and other monsters and stuff. Any good Youtubers for that? Stonewall008 still around?

FROST ARMOR: After not taking damage for a while, Sejuani gains bonus resistances and slow immunity. Frost Armor briefly lingers after Sejuani takes damage.

BONUS RESISTANCES Frost Armor doubles Sejuani’s total resistances, then adds 100 additional bonus armor and magic resist

what the gently caress

I thought it was doubled her resistances up to 100 total bonus points?

The worst remake for me personally was the Jax remake. I have the Pax Jax skin and hardcore mained that dude for a while. New Jax just never feels sturdy enough, like old Jax did. I guess Riot really hated the whole gain HP for AP/AD passive :(

The big issue with Riot's approach to off label use was they seemed to frequently wind up nerfing the hero to discourage it, but also make them worse at their intended role. Hopefully that has improved a little bit since they have made more finely tuned jungler items and things like that

I've been doing nothing but jungle this season at plat elo. Here's some hints:

<jungle words>

I guess what I'm trying to say is that counterjungling is Very Good, and very unappreciated. It's not just stealing raptors every now and again, it's the whole package, it's playing against the enemy jungler instead of "for" your team.

I was going to PM you about this, but I see you do not have PMs.

1. Do you mean pink ward your Red/Wolves, or theirs? It's not clear from the text

Are there any good places to read text posts like this about current play, or is it all it watching some dude's streams or youtube videos about it?

True damage to towers is reduced by the backdoor bonus.

(They made that a thing in the exact same patch where they made Mountain Drake's bonus damage not apply to true damage on the grounds that nothing should ever affect true damage ever.)

Mid is pretty influential in that they're able to further sway a game's advantage via roaming to either lanes. I think toplane is the actual 1v1 lane after the junglers do the one early game gank
