I mean they have it so comebacks are possible right up until the point you lose 2 inhibitors, which is fair enough... It can just feel stupid in the actual game because they've removed so much of the snowballing that teams can still be fairly equal in terms of team fighting ability, at a point where they still have an inhibitor and 3 base towers up, but in reality they have next to no chance. You then almost have this down time where the enemy gets all the buffs, waits for their minions to push, and then finishes the game.

That was really uncool, my friend during the game reported 3 people to have 1900 elo and 1 to have 1800 then I check and was thoroughly disappointed -,- I thought we accomplished something.

EDIT: Still means alot to me to pwn Ashebringer! Always SHORYUUUUKENing him in teamfights

With Mp5/lvl yellows only becoming better than flat mp5 yellows at level 7 (0,41/0,065=6,3something), which would in general be better, still the Mp5/lvl? Since I see guides still recommending those. Is this because the difference for the mana regen in the laning phase is so small you might as well take mp5/lvl over flat?

^ I'd get flat mp5 since even though the mp5pl become better pretty quickly, flat mp5 lets you harrass alot more during the early laning, often leading to a lead during the laning. Also, I think that the mp5pl actually overkills slightly, and that you don't really need that much mp5 later on anyway.

Very much depends on the champ, your opponent, the lane you are in and other random stuff.
Generally as a roamer or duo laner, flat is more attractive because you level slower.
If your champ can dominate the lane during the first 5-6 levels then flat also is interesting.
If there won't be anything special happening during laning then scaling is the way to go.

I can't think of any champ where MP5/lvl instead of flat MP5 would be overkill. If a champ can't make use of that mana later on then he probably would have fared better with other runes in the first place.

I'd get flat on ryze and leblanc for instance... mp5pl for people whose skills get useful only later(That would be someone like ehh... sion? Or someone who has a lower cd ulti... Jarvan maybe if you don't use defensive seals..)

Like spines said, those 2 are champs that probably shouldn't even be using mana regen yellows to begin with.
