I usually go Ring, SorcBoots, Guinsoo, Rylai, then either GA or Phantom depending on if the team needs me to be more tanky or DPSy later game. I have full CD runes for blues, HP for Yellow, attack speed for Red, and Armor Pen for Purple.
agreed on kayle, i've decided to start playing her more lately over ashe. although my build is based around mpen and not apen because i like to spam e. i usually go meiki -> fiendish -> nashor's, sorc boots then rageblade then after that get whatever i need to adapt to the situation. i just love nashor's because i can use e repeatedly without worrying about its cooldown into going to melee form.

Bans are going to make the game so much more interesting. For the people who need to be carried by jax, warwick, etc. are going to have a real problem going down the tier list to play someone else. But it also elevates those who play champions who aren't likely to be banned/picked. Skill will become much more important (and team comp/counter), rather being picking enough OP guys.
Just as long as they make leaving during bans/picks a loss. Shit, someone banned Jax, dodge.

Jax ban sounds like such a waste... Especially since good support will probably be the first bans every game, the idea of playing Jax without a soraka, kayle or janna to support him sounds so very unappealing.

I've recently started up on the EU server. I see way more TL people play on US do you think its worth switching ?
|
jax by himself isnt that powerful. he gets shut down pretty easy early on. jax/janna or jax/soraka on the other hand <_<
|
I'm more exited about exclusive pick than bans. Because you can pick after someone else does and since you can't take their hero, it'll give heroes that you don't see as much a chance to get played, especially if they have some niche counter to the other team's lineup.

I've heard there arent many good EU players, and bad servers, etc etc. regardless of the number of TL members on EU

not a whole lot of TL guys playing on EU servers, i might make the switch myself too. lvl 11 on EU server atm only bought kayle since she's my main char..

Any thoughts on Gragas builds? I don't really see the appeal of AP, since he only has two moves that benefit from it, both on pretty long cooldowns (10 sec for barrel, 60 sec for ult if memory serves).
So for DPS I'd rather go for some attack speed to get more out of drunken rage, and some AD for body slam. For tanking, whatever the situation demands, but no concrete ideas so far.
Thoughts/suggestions?
|
just go tank gragas, your abilities do quite a bit innately, the best you can do is be beefy.
|
i don get most of the players in EU server playing support/heal char thinks that they don need to farm for items, i mean sure they don need as much as tank or dps type chars, but still wtf r u gonna with a pair of boots and a single sheen/not top tier item etc. drives me nuts, maybe its because i'm still playing at low elo brackets -.-

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.
I ended up going for Katarina. I've only played 2 games with her but I was doing pretty well... well at least much better than I usually do. Went like 21-6-x in my first game and 16-7-x in my second (lot of deaths, I know... I get a greedy too often).
I was building for a fairly well-rounded AD build with Infinity Edge, but I'm not sure what other items I should focus on. I messed around with the Frozen Hammer thing since I figured the slow would help stop runners and prop up my low HP, and I also tried Zeal for pretty much the same reason as well as more crit and attack speed.
I see a lot of debate about AD vs. AP Kat. Seems to me like AP would be really weak early game. Anyone have any wisdom?

To my understanding, AD Kat has more damage output while AP Kat has more health and utility (slow). AD also relies on you not dying or else you have to re-farm your bloodthirster(s).

on kat you want magic pen and Bloodthirsters.
doran's shield sorcerer boots haunting guise Bloodthirster Bloodthirster Banshee veil
is a pretty balanced build.
warden's mail is also good on her(slows people that attack you)

Every time I want to play this game I have to click on Shaco.

Most tanks heroes struggle at farming (low damage/bad attack animation), and most support heroes prefer to defer creep kills to their lane mate.
