one of the reason i prefer this game over HoN (2 games Dota-a-like) is the number of "non targeting spells" in the game. It actually free the game much much more, just need more effort on balancing and this game will have a great future. a great ashes ulti can change the whole battle even if she is not there...



on a side note, i want to know which hero is the good counter to ryze at mid? im playing ryze lots these days and want to know in advance so that i wont screw up ...

Pretty much most heroes that usually take mid will crush Ryze mid.

For the most part I think the game is very balanced. Ashe ults from afar will usually miss so that's a very odd thing to complain about.

misunderstood? i was not complaining, i said it IS the amazing part of this game!!!
and the balancing is for general + bugs and stuff :D...

back to Ryze: i dun know, hving lots of success with Ryze mid currently. 3rd skill almost spam able and 90% guarantee the 2nd rebounce on the same target make it a good harassing skill.

Re: the complaint, I thought you meant they need to nerf her ult.

You can avoid all bounces by simply being to the side of the creep, which nullifies one spell, his prison blows at low levels, and his single-hit nuke is not only inefficient mana-wise but has a low cooldown. All of this is in conjunction with terrible casting range and no survivability. The majority of proper solo mid heroes played by good players, like Ashe, Kat, Pantheon, etc. etc. will obliterate Ryze.

For Soloside
[image loading]
I didn't die to wraiths this time. They brought me down to 90 hp but my second alpha strike took them out. I started with armor + 5hp pots this time and it worked better.
I had some great ganks but my team was awful. Would have worked if I didn't solo que.
I did die to Dragon though lol.

I love fighting ryze mid with Pantheon. out harass, out run, out burst, straight up outclass his janky ass, lol.


re: the dude asking whether he should get kat, kass, nid, malph, or shen:

they're all very viable champs, pick the one you want. Nidalee and Shen are the best of them, but as of right now, I consider both of them tier 2 and the other three tier 3.

is there any way to predict when these bugs will happen?

i had my teammates yelling at me in one game cuz i had pushed 3 enemies through a wall in the course of a game (the dragon and 2 champs)

and as amumu, it certainly sucks when some baller skill shot fails because of a bug. when i hit people (which is like 90% of the time) i want credit for it pl0x


I was in this game where Cho launched EZ in the air while Ez was trying to blink with his E attack. He pretty much stood in the air for 5 seconds and died while in the air.

Was lulz.

It happens with all characters who can do knockups, seemingly at random. I love when it happens, but not to me.

I find that competent Ryze players are pretty hard to deal with mid, because they'll just level the bounce shot to harass you from their side of the lane while putting a point in prison to keep you from getting a combo off. They basically farm a shit ton while denying many characters a lot of creep kills. Not saying that some characters like kat/panth won't out-burst him, but he's definitely a stronger choice for mid than he used to be. I just played with a guy with 1600~ wins who mained Ryze. He had more wins with Ryze than I had games and he took mid and carried us from being down like 10-2 and 2 towers to acing them and taking their nexus.

Just an example, not proving anything.

Pantheon wins vs. Ryze mostly via attrition. Spear shot is busted as hell for the first 3 levels, you just zone them off of creeps or force them to trade harass with your 83 damage nuke that costs 30 mana and has a 4 second CD (which always leads to a mana advantage for Pantheon if nothing else).

EDIT: damn, that fucker plays too much, especially with shitty characters, lol.

My point is, a competent player will simply stand off of the creep, thus, targeting the player with bounce shot will simply turn it into a single-target single-hit nuke. At this point, coupled with his lack of range, the Trists and Ashes (ranged DPS) of the world will pummel Ryze, as they outrange him and have far more sustained damage output if Ryze were to actually try to close the gap and cast his two single-target single-hit nukes.

Other dedicated solo mid nukers (Pantheon, Kat, Karthus, Anivia, Annie, etc.) have much stronger, more repeatable (attrition) combos and/or superior range or burst, particularly until level 6 (where Ryze finally begins to shine). "Well you just have to wait until level 6" you might say. A couple days ago I was playing Ashe vs Ashe, where the other Ashe opened Doran's Blade and I opened Fortitude. Suffice it to say I was level 6 when he was level 4. "Waiting until level 6" when you're outmatched solo is rarely going to end well.

"But you can break combos with prison" you bring up. That's fine and dandy except prison doesn't actually break combos. It's an entangle, not a stun, so casting prison on Pantheon/Kat does jack-all for you, except to cause you to stand in place in their channeled spell for another second.

prison could stop combos if it actually outranged shunpo or aegis. sadly for ryze, that's not the case, lol. his garbage spell range ruins him, because by the time your casting prison, they're already where they wanna be and comboing you.

Pretty much. It's his lack of innate survivability (low movement speed + low hp), his garbage range, the ridiculously bad mana vs damage inefficiency of his spells, and his irrelevance until level 6 that really jack him up against decent/good solo mid heroes.

Edit:
I mean, if I'm Ashe, you're gonna lose a lot of HP, without even hitting me once, because our range differential is enormous. Unless I'm lagging, and/or unless you're using Ghost/Flash to try to catch me off-guard.

(I always laugh at that word for some reason)

All of Ezreal's skill's are skill shots. Except maybe Arcane Shift but you do have to line that up well so that it hits champions.


That's awesome. Now I have to figure out if I want Ezreal or Sivir as my first champion. Sivir really tears me up, but Ezreal looks to have better ganking capabilities which is what I've been enjoying the most.

annie's a much more efficient mage at mid. anivia is too, but she requires considerably more finesse. karthus also is an efficient damage dealing mage mid, but he has Ryze syndrome in that he has no true disables.

Sivir is really cheap but Ezreal is much more fun. The bad thing about Ezreal is that everyone plays Ezreal so you will see a lot of Ezreal vs Ezreal mirror match-ups at mid.

-shrug- Karthus does okay with exhaust and his wall for ganking. His damage output is insane if someone is standing in his defile; most people early on will get killed in the 5 second of slow, and if my teammates corodinate with a disable, a double kill is possible.

I'm working an early catalyst into more and more of my "farmer characters" now. Karthus, Corki, Sivir, maybe yi?. It's just so good. I hate going back to town,

i can't believe i'm saying this but i got steamrolled by a karthus in a 3v3
i've yet to play karthus so i don't know his abilities, but he seemed to have some sort of perma-AOE that did massive damage... what's up with that? can someone explain how a hero that i've always heard was shitty, absolutely rolled me when i was playing my best hero on my best map?
