How does elo decay work? Do you have to not play any games for 2 weeks for it to decay?

Or can you play normals, and your elo doesn't decay.

It will decay if you don't play that specific type for 2-4 weeks. Playing normals doesn't stop it, playing ranked 5s won't stop solo delay.

channel: #LiquidParty


There's now 15 people in LiquidParty that isn't the autojoin liquidparty. Can we get everyone to turn off autojoin and re-join the channel? Let's not have the community split because of Riot's ineptitude.

2 Exp Quints will allow you to get to level 2 just from Red Buff. I used that on Eve before she was nerfed; ganking with red + stealth before mid hit lvl 2. Right now I don't see much use in Exp quints unless it's for a very specific matchup where hitting a key level before your opponent does will win the lane.

I personally much prefer setting Janna up for a really strong earlygame. APen/flat MP5/MReslvl/flat HP5 is what I use currently, open with DShield usually (and something along the lines of 0/13/17). Allows me to harrass a ton while my ally is completely free to farm. Gold/10 would be nice to have (I have a set of those too), but I prefer securing the lane more firmly so my ally can outfarm the enemies.

I did pretty much the same with Sona back then (and probably still could, but now she fails so hard mid/lategame without lots of farm that I don't play her anymore). I won bottom lane almost always when I played Sona or Janna.
I don't play other supports all that much, but imo if you cannot get into your enemies' faces during laning then you fail as a support. And try APen instead of MPen, at least on all the ranged supports. Godlike.

I have tried them and don't notice any difference TBH. If I had to guess, you're laning against people who come to bot lane with like 10-20 armor. I can't remember the last time I saw someone arrive on bot lane with < 30 armor.

I also don't really play Janna because I inexplicably blow dick with her. I play pretty much every other support just fine and prefer mpen on them.

Well I guess it also depends a lot on how the specific champ harrasses. If you use lots of autoattacks, APen will beat MPen hands down (and I guarantee you you will never see someone with less than 30 MRes either). It gives you more penetration per rune and thus a larger damage increase. Janna uses Shield + Auto (don't want to blow Q too much because it's expensive, dodgeable, and you might get ganked a second later; W is mostly just an expensive autoattack), and Sona has a retardedly good autoattack. But then again dunno about Sona in her current state.

So since you fail with Janna and I fail with the other supports... I guess we can deduce that JANNA IS A TANK!
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Well first of all, Udyr is not the best lane champion. If you want to lane as an Udyr style champ, play Irelia, Xin, or Trundle.

Udyr belongs in the jungle.. As far as Tiger vs Phoenix goes, it totally depends on what runes you have, if you have AD/Arpen runes; Tiger. if you have AS runes; Phoenix.

they are both pretty similar when it comes down to damage/jungle speed. it mainly comes down to personal preference, you want to start off Maxing 1 of either Tiger or Phoenix, then max out bear and turtle. Also, i noticed you said you just started playing, which explains why you would be laning as udyr, if your laning, i'd prolly stick with phoenix since the AoE makes it easier to farm.

As far as starting items go, if i we're to lane, id prolly get rejuv bead 4 health pots and 2 mana pots. boots and 4 pots (wait for 4th), or cloth armor and 5 pots. but like i said, laning with udyr isnt the greatest idea.

Treeeskimo can never stream enough.

Also has anyone ever thought of making a reverse annie skin? As in you control a little tibbers and summon a giant annie. IMO it would be hilarious. Pedo strike pentakills.
