it flashes when it crits Oo?

Well I don't think it was a crit. Can't say for sure though because I was busy dieing. That and I am not very used to laning against Garen and him flashing next to me to spin me dead. I don't really see his spin in a rather calm situation very often.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Blitz is not a tank because
1 he has nothing to make people focus him. Once he blows his load his Damage output is very small
2 he has no survivability skills. If he gets focused he drops like a corpse and his mana shield just depletes his usefulness even more

blitz is a niche ganker/initiator. You use him to make the fight 5v1+4 instead of 5v5

well yeah but you build him as a tank. I guess he's "tough" by Riot's terms

Ranked is a depressing hell hole.

Play a few bad games (some my fault admittedly, too many first game of the day lol). End up with utter trash. Just had 3 ppl leave in first 10m. At 1200 elo, really cbf trying to improve it.

Going back to unranked.



12000 elo and below is literal hell. you have charted into deadly waters my friend


Doesn't get better at 1600+ so it's fine.

1. 1-8 Nasus tells me he has the same K-A ratio as me, but I ksed him. My score, 6-0.
2. 1-9 Annie refuses to surrender because he says I'm afk. Meanwhile, I'm halfway up the map pushing.
3. 0-6 WW, starts by calling me a noob and then losing to Olaf jungle while feeding kills to their solos

Oh and this was in 2 games

What the guy is saying is that losing leads to streaks much more likely than winning. If the morons that you and your (hopefully you brought one) duo partner aren't even able to get carried you will lose and be paired with worse and worse morons every time.

I love people who handicap themselves and the team by picking terrible champions. And then they expect for you to not blame them. What do I expect? Don't pick shitty champions. If someone plays terrible it's easier to just blame the person who picked the shitty champion, because you probably aren't going to be very good no matter how well you play.

Absolutely true. Some carries can be babysat and will pay off later (think akali, corki, ashe), but those who cant fucking hold a solo lane or who pick say tf or kass after ez first pick are just incredibly gimping the team. My problem is not even with picking terrible champs per se, it's about not looking at what your team needs and just picking something completely retarded for the situation you're in.

Also is it just my impression or does every eve player also play trynd or vice versa? Whenever I see one in the champ selection screen the team start spamming WTF EVE SUCKS SRSLY PICK SOMETHING ELSE OMG and the genius (if he is able to read) always picks trynd...

<.<
Kass isn't a bad pick.
As someone who plays at high elo and mains Nidalee/Kassadin, I take offense from that.
I'm not fucking gimping the team by picking a champion that isn't "imbalanced". I'm gimping a team if I play bad, regardless if I am playing Kassadin or Garen.

Not saying Kass is bad at all, he's my favorite mid. And nida is amazing too nobody complains about either of them being UP. What I was mentioning is that after someone first-picked a mid you can't really afford to force him to lane. Laning kass (2v2) is in my eyes a complete waste of a pick since his Q harass isn't really going to win him the cs battle and he is going to be vulnerable to jungler ganks. Of course you can put him in the 2v2 lane (which as I said is the only free lane left since 2 people already picked a solo top) but to prevent them from feeding/losing the tower/being behind 60 creeps by lv 6 you are going to need to pick a babysitter (sion, taric, soraka) and have them 2v2.

How is this still in the game? :O

When speaking to akali I referred to her as a "carry". No characters can really "carry" a team in LoL, except for the temporarily OP ones who will aim for a solo lane anyways. Speaking about akali I used the term "carry" as in "she needs to be babysat for the first 5-6 levels, then she can do her own thing (such as counterjungling/roaming which is what the best akalis i've seen have been doing).

Vladimir is not imba. He's just not particularly fun to play against. He was like heimerdinger a few patches ago. Not unbeatable, just requires a strategy that you may not be comfortable or used before.
no heimerdinger was pretty goddam unbeatable a few patches ago. he's still very very hard to beat. there shouldnt be strategies that can only be beat if that comp messed up bad (4tanks + kog, heim push team) but RIOT fails.

i don't see what's so bad about this? shaco's not amazing anymore, them getting garen/morg sucks but they have two junglers. vlad wasn't too bad a ban (i ban vlad) and Blitz makes it so that you don't really need a full tank-engager. but i'm sure you're super pro and deserve to be 1900 Elo but you're gonna play normal since you don't want to go through the legendary "Elo Hell".

I just like playing normal because I can get a 5 man going without any of the crazy MUST WIN tension.

There's enough rage going around in normal that I don't want to be responsible for a loss in ranked :<

So, I got some RP today and am wondering what to spend it on XD
the only champs i dont have are zilean, xin zhao, kennen, kog'maw, galio, and blitzcrank. This is my first time getting Riot Points so i also want some skins too D: the decision is so hard!! Is kog'maw worth buying? and is vlad getting nerfed in the next patch?

the only thing i don't like about playing olaf is playing him 2 games in a row cause by the end of game 1 you feel invincible (cause you are) and then game 2 starts and you aren't a bad-ass until level 6 any more... i hate that feeling
i play ... hearthstone =\^.^/= Winterfox

Olaf is really dependent on his team at times though, aka he needs his teams to help in the ganks. When I play jungle Olaf the ganks are good, but the enemy team needs to be pushing. That's why i prefer to play jungle Shaco, the enemy team needs to be shut down in the laning phase though because i can not teamfight. But ganks are so much easier with stealth.

I really think Urgot isn't as terrible as people make him out to be. PIMP made a great video demonstrating how to play him. Your success depends so much on the early/midgame cuz he scales so badly, but he can really zone out an opponent earlygame with minimal effort.

Urgot is also a great solo 2v1. With the missiles locking on he has great harass while outleveling people. His only real big issue is escape, because he doesn't have any means to get away. But he deals a ton of damage very efficiently. He just needs ghost and maybe flash if you're in a higher ELO.

He can hit with Demacian Justice mid-spin, but iirc it stops the spin.

Vladimir is not imba. He's just not particularly fun to play against. He was like heimerdinger a few patches ago. Not unbeatable, just requires a strategy that you may not be comfortable or used before.

Here's how you win a fight against Vlad: When you commit to attacking him the damage you deal must be greater than the damage his transfusion deals plus about 50. If you do this every time he transfuses you then you will come out ahead and eventually kill him. Very early in the game vlad cannot do much more than chip away at people with Transfusion because the health costs of Tides of Blood are so much he will very likely end up doing more damage to himself using it than he would be dealing to you. If you're ranged you can easily punish vlad for trying to transfusion you by just attacking him. His Q's range of 500 is less than almost every ranged champion except I think morgana and sivir who have 450. Most ranged champions have 550+ range on their auto attacks.

If you get teleport or buy lots of health potions you should be fine too. Vlad doesn't have a lot of burst so you will know when he's trying to finish you. Don't be stupid and give him the chance.

I don't think he's unbeatable, I just think he needs a nerf. I know how to play against him in theory but there are a LOT of games where even if I hit a 4 second silence on him he'll still escape at low HP after landing his ult and come back in afterwards to get 3 kills on us.

You know, like, he's fine and balanced if he doesn't get a kill but there are some games where you're just like "well, they have vlad, we lost" and I think that needs to be slightly changed.
