Anyway I'm realistic about it, I'm a slightly better than shitty but much worse than good player. You're not a bad player, I'll vouch for you. Just you make some ?! decisions at times... Working on your thought process while you play perhaps. | ||

All casters and jungle champs should have 21 in utility, without a doubt. I go 21 0 9 for heavy phys carries like MF at times. Then 21 in defense for manaless/tanky champions like Garen or Shen. | ||

I told you I didn't play Nasus =X Probably shoulda just taken Karthus or something and roflpwned them early considering they had no idea how to lane, but having stupid CC in teamfights carried their dumb asses. For reference, it was Galio, Cho, Kennan, LaBlanc, and...shit...someone who was terrible, WW I think... | ||

I actually felt like Anivia is stronger side-lane (if I go that way) and in a solo lane I'd probably default to Malzahar, Morg, or Annie :/ I'm open to being wrong about TheWhite and I've encouraged people to let me know if one starts taking over, but nothing so far. she's a lot like akali in the sense that if she runs into anyone with substance, its like running into a brick wall. On the other hand, she makes ppl like ashe go kaboom. She also has high mobility, i ran flash/ignite at first, but i actually felt justified in flash/ghost just because of that extra mobility really felt like it made more of a difference, and she doesnt need an extra nuke. Also, i feel like she can really abuse 1v1 lanes since she has an obscenely strong poke, q+jump/return = mini explosion. with just like 2 combos you can send some1 back to base crying. edit: her farm power goes up when you can regularly double-jump creeps, but thats at the point in time where it doesnt matter quite as much (you're already dropping off anyways) | ||

I go 21 defense occasionally, most often with non-mana champs. | ||

If I learn how to do this I'll start becoming a better player but honestly I can't do the 1v5 thing like I've seen some players do and that's a pretty big disadvantage when it comes to ranking up. If you go 7-0, it is very likely that at least 2 other people on your team will actually listen to what you say if you keep it constructive and friendly. Guide them. This is how you abuse an early advantage. You can't 1v5 unless your enemies are total retards. You might be able to solo win a game by pushing and avoiding enemies, occasionally picking off people who challenge you 1v1 without any backup, but other than that I don't see a way to win 1v5. And even then you rely on your team to an extent. | ||

I do 21/0/9 on ashe cus the damage is neat, and I feel like it suits ashe the best. But yeah, I run utillty on everybody else (when im not jungling, then i run 1/14/15, mogwais ubahl33t jungle masteries) I used to run defensive masteries alot but they feel so inferior to the mana and buff duration along with the cdr. | ||

21 in offense for Twitch and maybe a few others, though I don't play these champs. 21 defense for... I'm not sure. Utility tree is just too good and if you need tank, buy items ingame. | ||

Afaik the 5% damage only applies to base damage so that's a full 5 AD at lvl 18. You can instead get 2 buff duration 1 greed. I assume that you build her IE/LW so you most definitely want red buff as much as possible. By lvl 18 greed should easily have paid for the 5 AD you miss out on. You have a little bit less damage at lvl 1 though. | ||

I'm probably just going to spam 3v3 games so I doubt I'll lose. don't quote me on this, but i think i had 200 games played at level 20, and it took at least another 150 to get to 30 (not a 100% win rate though, probably close to 55% lol). so considering the TT exp reduction but the fact that you're not bad, mb ~70+ games? | ||

21 Defense is valuable on champions that HAVE to take damage to function, any Jungler and about any melee. | ||

0/9/21 on any caster even if it's a tanky caster like galio who "needs defense masteries". i couldn't imagine running annie/galio without flash and ghost mastery and summoner spell reduction time 0/21/9 on any ranged carry because i'm terrified of losing lane/farm when i'm a champ that really needs it. the only ranged carry i play though is ashe honestly and i'm bad with her anyways and i actually run this set with vlad because he doesn't need a lot of the mana stuff in utility 0/15/15 or 1/14/15 on junglers/melee dps champs. i want the MS but i don't feel like summoner spells are as critical on xin/trynd/olaf (though i do love me some ghost on olaf) | ||

Its either 0, 9 or 21 in offense, no other. 21 Defense is valuable on champions that HAVE to take damage to function, any Jungler and about any melee. How is 5 AD at lvl 18 better than 10% crit damage on champs that build a lot of crit, especially if you run crit runes? | ||

If you attack 100 times it's a whole 500 damage! But if you attack 100 times with 0% crit chance it's an extra 0 damage! You're welcome. | ||

We like to dump on the offensive tree, but that's mostly because it pales in comparison to the other trees. It's still pretty good, it's just not AS good as the other trees and when you're looking to twink yourself out, the offensive tree is BY FAR the easiest to replace with itemization. but yea, I run 21 utility on anyone who doesn't need damage reduction from creep aggro, including Shen and Garen and Kennen, lol. I mean, meditation is a great mastery and all, but pretty much everything but expanded mind and perseverance in the utility tree is both great and irreplaceable through normal itemization. | ||
