If glyphing mana, you almost have to take SoS on him, right?

20-0 all towers still alive

Apparently I can't Q because there's already a game in progress...Too bad we lost our Nexus and I saw the score screen of said game already ^_^ I guess that's what we get for losing to a bunch of baddies.

^ Closer than it looked tbh. We just didn't do anything too retarded and had really good map control. I cheated death several times.
|
closer than it looks on a 20-0, no dead towers game is still not close enough to not justify a 25 minute surrender.

I just tried Sion laning with Janna who went shield first. I did so much damage I raped xin Zhao and zoned him out the whole time. Went on to do that 3 D blades thing and it worked really well.

I've played with that tofusoup guy before, he's really bad

You mean the flat mana glyphs that I combined away might have been useful for something?
Fuuuuuuuuuu-
I'll still take my new armor pen quint over some flat mana that *could* be useful on a character I don't own yet.

DPS Sion works just fine if thats the playstyle he enjoys more. Solo games tend to last ages anyways since people drag games on for no reason (look at screenshot on the page ).

I've played her in about 25 normal games against 1400-1500 people. Haven't used her in ranked yet, but I've only just now hit 10 ranked games so not surprising.
I wouldn't compare her to Sona or Janna at all. She's classified as support, but the amount of support she brings her team isn't anywhere close to them. On either end of the spectrum...if Sona gets a few items (I run Locket, Mejai's, Boots as core) and then the team pushes she wins. Janna requires almost no items. You can stack D Rings. Lux.. well, she needs a lot of items to do more damage, but then you're not even getting a big benefit from the farm.
Right now she's just a worse version of Morg; she has a bind and a shield, but the shield isn't the most overpowered support ability in the game. Her slow barely slows the enemy team, so it's basically just Clairvoyance + damage. Laser is fun but doesn't hurt much late game, and doesn't have the game changing effects of Soul Shackles.
She's really, really fun to play, but since her support abilities aren't strong and her damage isn't strong, you lose a lot unless you're on a team with really, really strong damage output, because a lot of times her effect is so little it's like fighting 4v5. I think the passive change that's coming will help her a lot, so I think she'll be better, but right now she's at the lowest tier of support with Soraka.

I have seen lux go something like 17-0-X though. Shes not amazing, but shes certainly not terrible. And like everyone else, she kicks ass if you get lots of stacks on meijas.

You can spare one point for that mastery if you are going 1/14/15, more if you're going 1/21/8 and building true tank.

After his W buff in this latest patch I think he's significantly faster than any other jungling tank. He's also certainly the most fun tank to initiate on.

SoS > Evasion?

Yeah anyone taking dodge/nimbleness OVER SoS is crazy. Strength of Spirit is the only reason I go into defensive tree at all anymore.

his level 4 gank is also imo unparalleled the taunt is supergay and he can easily get into range to use it (even under tower with his w or whatever it is) and with red blue you can't stop the gank unless you are hugging tower before you flash in which shouldn't happen if the opposing hero(s) are intelligent at all or if you're getting completely dominated in lane at which point he should gank some other lane
