Does yi build tank items? Seems stupid to play a melee as a squishy. I bet you got fed early game but lategame they had better teamfights and EZ owned you. I resold and rebought items at the end solely for backdooring, also I didn't feel the need to buy that much tanking stuff since we had Zilean and Kayle ulti-ing me which worked wonders earlier on. They had 4 Thornmails and 1 GA. Also at the end they had 1 inhib turret at 30% hp along with the nexus but I never got around to BDing it. We could have stalled the game almost endlessly but my team decided to chase the enemies and the minions got our nex. Still, I'm not sure about what to do with Yi when the opponent decides to go mass thornmail Guess I'll stop playing AD carries altogether, 3 times in a row I was megafed at the start then they build mass thornmail and we lose. Impossible to win vs that op strategy. For $300... an item that was, up until a recent patch removed its attackspeed, part of the two item combo every ranged dps purchased? It doesn't do nearly enough and you still get reflected, but yeah I'd have gotten it if I hadn't re-sold for BDing.

Yeah a Last Whisper + some lifesteal would have worked wonders.

From http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/
Damage increase applies to summoner spells and items used by Swain.
I have to agree, Swain is really good at what he does. Sure he doesn't fit into every team, but that's fine. He feels kinda OP at times, but currently we have quite a few champs who are like that so in the end he might be just right. Dunno though I don't see/play him enough/at all.
Whoops, normally I try not to double post...

So on an AD carry when I notice they're going for thornmail strat, I'll get LW and thirster ? Okay, need to try.
Thoughts on Bloodrazor?

Swain's E increases all sources of damage from Swain. I don't know where you got the idea that it only boosts autoattacks because that's silly and sorta useless. It's always been his E, but they nerfed it from ALL damage to just Swain-damage because they didn't want a focus-down-one-dude metagame.
It's also why some people like DFG on him, though I think he needs AP and survivability more than he needs another nuke. It does give some handy burst damage though.

While browsing the red tracker I noticed a New Skins and Bundles thread, clicked on it, saw the names Frozen/Void Nocturne, Leprechaun Veigar, and Regalia Poppy, clicked for pics and the thread was gone on the official forums.
Now it's gone in the tracker too.

Thoughts on Bloodrazor? Well it depends on the situation. If you are going to stick with AD, then you obviously go for LW and some source of lifesteal should help quite a bit.
If you see the Chainmails coming and can get Bloodrazor quickly then it might be a good idea. Be sure to start with the AD components though so your enemies don't realize what you're doing. You want them to invest in as much armor as possible if you go for Bloodrazor. Malady usually is a good idea after you got a Bloodrazor. Also if you already have a lot of money invested into AD (including Triforce since the procs are physical) then I wonder if Bloodrazor still makes sense. Don't know, you'd have to do some math if you want to know exactly.

Swain fits onto any team as long as he gets to lane against Shake.

I am 99% sure HSGG said they were shopped on his stream last night. I watched the whole thing last night and he didn't really say anything about it. He just went whaaaaaaaaaat? and closed it.

I caught it as well, I guess it was a phone you could bring an image up on and they did it and snapped a photo of it.

Is it just me or does Kassadin's E sound like he's vomiting on you? No wonder that it gives slow, if I was running at some dude and he randomly started hurling chunks in my direction, I'd slow down. Most probably stop too...

Actually the skins seem different. The in-game skin has a helmet which covers the top of Poppy's head, whereas the custom skin does not. I do remember the Pirate Kat and the first Morgana skins being user-created though.
That said, how can we get Riot to make this Akali skin a reality: http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=571491

I really hate Bloodrazor, i feel like the only champs that can work it are Kog'Maw and Warwick since they generally run MP runes.
But honestly? 4% reduced by resistance is just a joke, especially since as an AD champ you just aren't going to be having the MP to make it work.
So imo it's Kog and WW only, in all other cases it's a waste of a lot of gold.

They're good on Teemo too.

Just want to say thanks to TL and the many champion guides (and of course the contributers) in the subforum; coming back from a 6 month hiatus made easy. <3

Combined with the 30 AD that it already gives, that's 110+ AD and 40% attack speed on a 3.8k gold item. Even though you won't have the relevant penetration and the damage can't crit, it still has good value when compared to the single-item DPS of BF Sword-based items, simply because the damage amount is so much. It's only when you look at two-or-more-item DPS, or when you look at ability-based damage, where Bloodrazor starts to not look so good (because it doesn't synergize with crit items or ArPen items and doesn't scale into AD-scaling abilities).

I really like to get BR on AD carries when the enemy is stacking def items. In the lategame where everyone has 2.5k+ HP and a tank has ~4k hp, BR adds a lot of DPS for its price.
