I've never played against or with Phreak, but from the looks of the spotlights it seems like he has a competent set of basic skills, but just maybe shouldn't be pretending like he knows enough to tell others about how to play champions he just picked up a couple days ago because they're trying to increase sales of them.

Judging from Phreak's win/loss ratio, I'd say he is a hell of a lot better than you guys claim he is.

I've never played against/with him so I have no idea how good he is. Only thing I've said is that both Elementz and HotshotGG have been underwhelming when I've seen them.

I've always maintained that Phreak is a very good player. He is easily in the top 1% of players, and that is very good in my book. I think what people are trying to say is that of that small group of players, he is fairly average, and doesn't deserve the hero worship he gets.

That's pretty much how I felt of HS and El. They're good players, and I'll happily take one of them over countless crappy players, but given their hero status (it was the same for Roku a while ago - Brees was like "you've never played against Roku's Mundo" and when I did it was like meh...) it's underwhelming. They both make mistakes, and pretty hideous ones at that. I would unflinchingly say their winrates are more a product of whom they play with more than just how good they are.

For instance, Phreak is 150-50 or something, but if he were to solo-queue that all the way he'd have a much worse record, aided by leavers and feeders. I've tried carrying people on one of my smurfs and I can honestly say there're too many games where you can try like hell and still fall short trying to win 3v7.

The past couple days, I've been thinking about trying a Pantheon opening strategy where I go balls to the walls early offense (Long Sword, 21/0/9, flat damage quints) and grab the two wraith camps at opening with heartseeker, level, get aegis, and then go for a quick FB with W -> E + Ignite. I think I'm gonna try it out tonight at some point.

So, I was making a game with 2 friends (Aylayla Milandur and BaiHappy), and as soon as the game starts one of them (Aylayla) tells me he just reinstalled Windows, and LoL can't launch because it's corrupted, even though PvP.net wasn't; he has to reinstall LoL before he can reconnect to the game.

So we're starting the game 4v5, and we don't have any good mid champions, so I take it (Soraka). I proceed to dominate their Kat while my other 3 teammates are doing their part steamrolling their opponents.

24 mins into the game, my friend finishes reinstalling LoL, he's just in time to see us Ace the enemy team and they summarily surrender. He then gets first win of the day :p

I'd never seen such domination in a 4v5. It was fun

If they don't properly push early enough then a 4v5 team dominates mid-game via superior levels and farm. It takes a really long time for the 5-team to farm up enough for their "man advantage" to take over... unless they have a plethora of CC.

also soraka's a pretty good mid. it's not like she gets kills or anything, but she beats down most champions in a war of attrition.

This is the essence of why Pantheon is playable right now. That exact scenario might not come up, but as you start getting SotO stacks with your brutalizer, your burst starts getting absolutely silly. regardless of your heartseeker level, you add 5 points to your heartseeker for each 1 point of damage you gain. That's 50 damage per longsword, 25 per SotO stack, 250 per BF Sword. This is why my build is so balls to the wall on getting damage, because abusing this shit is the only thing keep Pantheon from being just another terrible melee DPS.

Wouldn't it be 10 points of damage to your heartseeker for each 1 point of damage you gain, since it deals double damage to champions?

are you kidding me? think about riot's recent major buffs. starting from the kat buff, shen buff, kayle buff, ezreal buff. only one that didn't work was teemo but it still didn't make him worse off.

i say this but i feel like i'm overlooking a lot of the other major buffs. but my point is that it might make him super viable instead of making him worse off.

That too.

For instance, Baikin doesn't really want to play until Blitzcrank gets buffed, and I don't really blame him (he also needs a monitor), and I simply am tired of people abusing the Ezreal bug and whacking people for 800+ damage 25 minutes into a game.

Edit:
This is also a middle-finger to everyone who said AD Ezreal was underwhelming a month back. Sheen + BT + Mystic Shot = ~600 damage. The bug just makes it do like 700 damage instead, but the skill was already retarded to begin with - just hardly anyone abused it. So they buffed it. Great. Why was a skill with a 1-second CD doing over 600 damage needing a buff? @#$@$*@%


Haha in my defense, when Ezreal came out everyone said AD was the way to go based on Phreak's champion spotlight. Then I came on and posted that I thought AP was AS good due to his W and ult ownage. I said it might have been due to playstyle though and was defending my awesome AP ezreal when most people thought AD was better at the time. Then all of a sudden AP ezreal became super popular, and OP threads about him started popping out everywhere. I then gloated a bit that I was right about AP Ezreal being awesome.

Then the nerfs came, and AD ezreal is probably better now. And now you get to gloat a bit haha
Though in truth it doesn't really matter cuz I can play both styles

I'd like to play Ezpz sometime 1v1 AD ezreal. I've owned mid a few times as him, but its probably due to people sucking mid when I solo queue.

I just played one of my most awesome games in League of Legends! (and yes I've played a lot of games, over 1100 now)

[image loading]

Our Pantheon didn't join the game, and still we proceeded to win 4v5 in a very decisive manner. And well, at this ELO (mid-high ELO) that is absolutely unheard of. And this was only my third game with Heimerdinger!

I'd like to recieve congratulations now please
