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 no coincidence he has a 100% win rate on Trundle (He only played two pro games of Trundle tho)

one time i was tricked into playing ranked flex pick and i cleaned up so hard as master yi and my usual joking bming where i am not actually insulting people but just quoting over the top villains made people actually insanely salty at me and only after the fact did i realize that i dumped on a ranked flex pick team and felt awful and ever since then i have put master yi on a shelf only to be taken out in extreme circumstances as his power is just too dangerous

Mais, non, je suis fantastique!

I'm fine with Kalista being only useful to people who have played 50+ games with her. I'd much prefer having 4% of my games have a one trick Kalista than 33% of my games have a lovely Lucian or Ezreal.

Say what you like about Kai'Sa's visuals and voice work, but she's got a fun kit that feels like it works surprisingly well out of the Jungle.

Maybe coming back and... wow this is a lot of loving change. I think I basically understand it except is there no way to set up rune pages outside of character select to an actual game?

Also how do you set up character item pages or is that functionality gone now?

Recently gotten back into this, havent played since like... season 3 or 4? around the time Jayce came out, i remember liking him on release a lot.

Boy there are a lot of new characters that no one ever plays ever... i've still never seen Ornn after like 2 weeks playing daily.

you lot have an EU discord or an EU room in your discord? cause i'd be up for playing some games with goons.

ornn is fairly popular in pro play, he just got nerfed out of being op and is just kind of a harder to use malphite/maokai with his only gimmick being able to buy items in lane. so obviously people arent gonna play him casually that much.

Fair enough, i never really cared much about what pro players are up to since i dont really like to watch video games. i've mostly been playing a lot of jungle and it's quite interesting how much harder the jungle is compared to the earlier seasons, the what used to be wraith camp ruins me with those weird birds.

There isn't a dedicated euw channel in the discord, just type like '@here game euw' or whatever and someone might pipe up. There's not many of us though. Feel free to add me, ign is dingus khan

Going from hard engage to poke/healing supports is like gaming whiplash. I keep having to resist the urge to shove my face into the enemy jungler when I play Soraka (with limited success, I will admit.)

if you want real gaming whiplash play jungle shaco then switch to nasus. heal/poke support players actually benefit from playing hard engage to learn aggression patterns but shaco and nasus have no transferable skills

Part of it is that a lot of the other ADCs either got hit directly (Tristana) or indirectly (Rageblade nerfs). Cait's big problem pre-8.6 is that you had a good laning phase and then twenty minutes of waiting on your rear end for your 3 item spike, but now that Rageblade's not an instant first item spike, having a weak midgame isn't as big of a problem.

Draven has a 53% winrate, seems like 1 item spike ADCs or just ADCs who have strong base damage benefitted from the Rageblade and Shiv nerfs. Ezreal sitting on a 51% winrate with a 43% pick rate.
