There's been like 5 casters released since the original 40 champs, pretty sure they could release another 5 in a row and it wouldn't 'even things up.'

is lux a top tier champion? I don't wanna waste my IP/time learning her if she sucks. I feel like everyone is middle of the road on the issue of her viability.

her laserpewpew gun just looks SO fun to use X.X

Yea I guess that is true but in general I think casters are harder to make and require more imagination. It's just imo the quality of the casters lately haven't been so great with swain and lux. I mean I guess Lux is fine I think she just needs a small like buff to her ap ratios and shell be good. I haven't really played against many good Lux players and I dont own her myself so I guess I can't really comment on her.

this is such a silly way to look at it. every hero can be top tier if they are played correctly, tier lists are simply an excuse for mediocre players to say "oh its not me its because the champ is low tier that i'm not doing well etc etc". If you think you'll have fun with her and can use her to maximum efficiency, YES SHE IS TOP TIER AND SO IS PRETTY MUCH EVERY OTHER CHAMPION IN THE GAME.

on the other hand, dont be so naive as to think this game is perfectly balanced. Lux's numbers are simply subpar and she is a shadow of champs that do all she does wayyyy better. It's more a problem of rehashed abilities and numbers then player skill.

I think the main thing is that people noticed the new champs in the other categories that really shined (Ez, Xin, Galio, Sona, Garen, etc.), but the casters haven't really outshined the tried-and-true casters from the original 40. Kennen and Vlad are great, but not to the point where they've dominated the spot of "best caster" over Annie, Anivia, and Morgana. And Malz, Swain, and Lux seem pretty forgettable by comparison.

You should start at their wraiths with cloth and 2 pots with Yi if you can and catch procs, if you don't proc the big one smite it and go wraiths -> your wolves -> your wraiths -> stone golems -> b to buy longsword+ more pots then go blue golem -> wolves -> wraiths -> stone golems and make a judgment call on red. If I'm good, sometimes I will jack their wraiths again instead of blue buff because Yi doesn't really need blue buff to jungle if he just steals small creeps all over. There are many reasons why I do this but I feel it's much more efficient than bluepill after buff and you get that much closer to razors with it. I also run 1/8/21 with full attackspeed runes on jungle Yi, but whatever works for you.

HEY 5HITCOMBO!!!

Is this guide of yours still how you play or has it changed since? http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=148300

I ask because my brother wants to check out cho during free week and I want him to have some solid advice before I have to carry his ass along with the three other imbeciles from matchmaking.

Much love <3

I edited it into what I do now recently, it should be the top quoted edit. Just grab a solo and don't lane across MF and you'll be fine. If you can convince him to jungle, jungle cho is best cho though. I think I linked my jungle guide in there and that's what I do when I play cho now. It really depends on your team comp, though, a lot of the time you're expected to full tank nowadays and you end up having to build for it.

Currently 7 sign-ups

OK guys, with the demise of Gozey, I'm going to (try to?) run a TL inhouse. Unlike Gozey, I'm going to try to mix things up a bit to keep things fun, since TL has a pretty diverse skill range. Sign up by November 12th, tournament on November 14th, 17:00 GMT (+00:00) 19:00 GMT (+00:00) (note: this will be after daylight savings ends, so it'll be 2pm eastern time; TL's time tag may currently imply 3pm eastern) (second note: moved 2 hours later so west coasters can play). Here are the rules:

Signups are individual. I will cut off at multiples of five. If I get 27 signups, the last two people to sign up will be dropped.

PM me to sign up.

Teams will be auto-generated based on ELO to keep things even.

Series will be three games.

Game 1: Teams will draft from the week's free champions (10 free champs means no bans). You are drafting for the OTHER TEAM. In other words, you want to pick the worst, weakest, most unbalanced composition possible. Standard 1-2-2-2-2-1 pick order.

Game 2: Teams will take turns banning from the free champions, 1-2-1-1, with the team that lost game 1 going second (and getting 3 bans). This will leave 5 free champions remaining. Both teams will consist of these champions (mirror match).

Game 3: ARAM!

I'd like to use more than the free champs, but not everyone has everything, and keeping lists of who you can legally ban/force the other team to use based on who has what is too much of a hassle.

Wooh wooh...... In the hands of caller Lux is op so I don't know what all this talk about Lux not being a top tier champion is about but it needs to stop. I think you guys need to learn something from his brave Lux..... left me speechless countless times. =P

Actually I'm pretty sure Rammus is the best tank in the game right now, he's pretty damn good at everything he needs to do as a tank and a jungler.

Someone brought up an interesting idea for Udyr in pvpnet chat. Glyphing straight mana gives you a bunch of regen with the golem buff, which will let you finish your first round of the jungle with more health as you can do turtlephoenix spam and keep your monkey's stacks up.

I don't play her, but I've seen a fair number of them, and been unimpressed. She feels like "bad Sona" to me. Probably about on par with Janna. If you want a new, support caster with a badass ult, I'd go with Sona.
