His magic resistance and armor are increased by 30/40/50 for the next 8 seconds. Looks like I was incorrect. ^^ That's actually kind of a shame, because now he is just like pantheon. Buy a little bit of armor and he becomes very lack-luster. Of course his AoE abilities are infinitely better too bad xin will always be a bigger threat to squishy carries than pantheon. its true smash ![]() | ||

Problem with building Pantheon Tanky is that yes, he does no damage and is basically just a stun bot, which you can do way better with a bunch of different champions. Pantheon has a stun and kicks into rape your face off way earlier than Xin. The difference between Panth Aegises Twitch -> Panth gets stunned by Sion and Xin Audacious Charges Twitch -> Xin gets stunned by Sion is pretty big. Basically, reliable stuns have a lot of value and while Xin is better under most circumstances he'll sometimes get interrupted before he can actually CC them. | ||

The last two games I played were one in which we had two ragequitters, and one in which my team surrendered a game in which we were slightly down...but had won the last teamfight. This was especially annoying since I'd gotten two kills in that fight, had mejai + levi, and the cash for the kills bought me zhonya's (on Vlad). Has there been an influx of impatient people in the mediocre ELO range or something? I certainly notice alot more assholes lately. I quit 2 games yesterday. The first one, everyone spoke portugese or something, and my lane partner walked right into tower range twice within the first 5 minutes. Like, no sense in me trying to play with people I can't even understand. The second game, someone in champ select bitched that someone took his character (vlad). The Vlad goes mid, the kid who bitched goes mid as well and he walks into middle and feeds their morde twice in a row. He says he will keep doing it all game. That was one bad night ~_~ Maybe its because im in shit elo range thanks for kids like these. | ||

There's definitely a difference between how the pros itemize versus what the general public and 99% of item guides suggest. (Though I believe 99% of guides to be full of crap.) I'd like to see more information about pro builds. Does anyone have a list of what people got in the WCG tournaments for example? Also, how do Kog, Vlad, and Ezreal compare to say Akali or Nidalee in terms of button pressing? I feel Nidalee/Akali have a higher skill requirement to play and would like to choose more champions with the same demands. | ||

With Rylai's he can kite quite well.35% slow for 4+s is nothing to laugh at | ||

For starters, if they're going AP, they seem to get multiple Doran's Rings. The most I saw was 3 on a random person's Nidalee. What's the point to this? I know the Doran items are cheap for the stats they provide, but 3 Doran's? There's definitely a difference between how the pros itemize versus what the general public and 99% of item guides suggest.

It's more cost effecient than the nerfed catalysts every1 was using back in the day. | ||

Kog is 100% positioning, hitting W at the right time and right clicking on the right guy. No difficulty there. Vlad is a little tricky, but doesn't have as complex combos as Akali/Nid. Ezreal is just being able to hit your Q and also some positioning and decision making with your E. If you want another intricate combo character, play Kennen, his shit is mad tricky and cool. Really high skill cieling with that little fucker. | ||
