Start cloth + pots
Blue (smite finish) - wolves - wraiths - golems - red (smite start) - wolves - wraiths - golems - B
Finish HoG, buy ward, 2 pots
Dragon - I think I hit lvl 7 here or after one more camp, which is when I can gank properly. Then whatever.
It works out really well, I'm never close to dieing, I'm just wondering if my Dragon is too slow to stop a good WW or something.
I like ganking if possible at 4 with red... also ww will kill dragon before you get to it . Other than that if it work for you its probably good

That's a very slow dragon.
I go cloth+5 pots, blue --> wolves --> wraiths --> red --> golems, b+get ruby pendant, dragon at level 4--> get their golem if they don't have a jungler and if safe, if not b.

Honestly in ranked there's no way in hell you will get a four minute dragon off unless the other team is completely retarded or without a jungler.

That's true once you gain ELO in ranked, but it works 99.9% of the time in normal queue and in lowish ELO ranked.

You also need to give the time you try dragon and when you level along with the skills you get.

I don't have a dragon time, but if it's doable on cow's route, that's what I'll do.
I level:
WEWEWRQ - whatever
because I don't plan on ganking until lvl 7, I don't need Q until then.

I personally wouldn't have banned anyone from tournament play that didn't actually conspire to hack the account. People on the internet troll. its like a second job. Maybe reprimanded? Given a handicap at most. and i don't think you've had any direct experience with RIOT. we have and i can assure you that they are absolutely retarded. honestly, any one of you guys (with the exception of maybe Rugfeeder) could have organized a better tournament. Matt Marcou is like one of the fucking legendary dogs from pokemon silver. you hear about him, you saw him once, then you just have to pray to god you see him again in your adventures and that your trigger finger is right next to your masterball. continuing with that analogy, phreak is pikachu.
edit: Pendragon is psyduck.

I'm not sure which is better =/ That's a no-brainer. The inhibitor. You can always bait them/wait-out Baron afterwards, because if you stand around Baron and dare them to stop you, their base will get auto-pushed. If they send one person to take care of their base you instantly get a "free" 5v4, or if they're smart and pull back you get ample time to Baron, etc. It puts a lot of pressure on them. Edit: By the way assuming you opt for the inhibitor, your team must heal ASAP afterwards. Don't fuck around; if the other team is smart and catches you napping they'll simply bumrush Baron themselves while you screw around and delay healing and you won't be able to do anything about it. This is an often game-changing mistake. Don't do it. this is actually something that wins games. when your inhib dies and (hopefully) you warded dragon or see someone farming a lane BUM RUSH BARON make sure to bring a ward for the path behind it and path leading into it i heard an awesome group of young men beat CLG doing this.

He is a monster in lane with a low CD Nuke and a good farm / heal, along with arguably the best speed buff in the game. i absolutely agree with you. there are better options (imbavlad) for magic damage but he's thick and does damage. the best characters right now are the ones that aren't worth killing but can't be ignored (damaging tanks, super-mobile carries, support heroes).

(im doing pretty ass right now) uhhh, lessee... Depends on whether you're jungling or laning with him, but essentially I always have my first three items as: Madred's Razor Heart of Gold Merc Treads And then from there I gun for: 1. Madred's Bloodrazor and Guardian Angel 2. Frozen Mallet 3. Radumin's Omen And I pump elixirs after this or sometimes just after GA, depending on how soon we need the extra OOMPH. I also sometimes skip HoG in favor of a negatron cloak and then replace Omen with Banshee's vs. particularly heavy Magic teams. Jungling I run my standard 1/14/15 setup (i'm addicted to dropping the veteran's scars crap for movespeed). AS Marks, Armor Seals, MR Glyphs, AS Marks. Ghost/Smite Laning I typically run a 0/11/19 setup. AS Marks, Mp5pL Seals, MR Glyphs, MS Quints. Ghost/Cleanse or Ghost/Ignite depending on opposing team. but I'm a pretty tanky Xin player, there are also good builds that do crap like: phage mercs Mallet Ghostblade GA IE I just build everyone tanky in this metagame, lol. id much prefer laning, usually one of the guys i play with goes for a tank though, so something good with damage? I would say just try my build before judging whether you need more damage alongside another tank. Honestly the best teams in the metagame right now have at least 3 tanks on them, so don't approach the issue like "herp de derp, we already have a tank, I need teh damages." Being able to last forever in a fight, especially with his absurd CDs and W's CD reduction, means that you can do a metric ass ton of damage and CCing just by virtue of your skill, so don't get hung up on trying to build towards damage until you can definitely assess that that's what you need.
And again, if my first suggested build isn't cutting it for damage, I gave a rough questimation of what the DPSier builds look like (the last part of my post), so you should have that to jump off from if you decide that Bloodrazor + Mallet into tanking spam isn't cutting it.

For clarification; Last Whisper reads: UNIQUE Passive: Attacks penetrate 40% of the defender's armor.
NOT: UNIQUE Passive: 40% armor penetration
Thus Last Whisper does not affect SKILLS that do physical damage because they are not (auto) attacks. I've continually tried to beat this into people's heads as a Pantheon player who knew how it works. Guess it never hurts to say it again, but I certainly hope most people have heard me rant about how LW is garbage on Pantheon enough to understand this.

You know WRA, your tank nidalee build (GRB into GA) is the same build used by a guy on my friend list, Chyea. Know him?

I'm really sick of pirate 2v1ing a lane, they need to make raise morale not deny

I'm sick of Mundo recovering health faster than I can damage him 1v1, they need to make his ult not heal.

So his ult should make him walk 15% faster for 10 seconds? I'm sure that will fly.

Pirate is such a dumb champion. I stand by RNG as the worst mechanic available.
That being sad even if you suck with Amumu (like i do) man his ult is a game changer.
I just massed HOG and got boots and we won i was like 2-2-21973562183521763457123
