this game is so casualll
maybe that's a good thing, not sure, but i like it hardcore
edit:
k might as well continue with the sexual innuendos
i like spraying over 5 guys as twitch
with 40% penetration
and it's good because when i spray on them they get infected with my disease
but seriously i wish people would appreciate high level play more, but the no price tag of lol attracts so many noobies, while lots of good players are persuaded by hon since it is basically like dota. meh guess this game will never evolve competitively, pretty sad since it has a good amount of potential
top 1/4 = 1200 ranked

Had some fun vs some bads had to hold down a 1v2 lane vs Malphite and Sivir with Katarina and finished the game 3/2/4 with a 25 minute surrender on their part (forgot how long range malphite's ult is :[) Shitty score but completley denied them both so they were useless in teamfights so I guess I call it a win there.
Then carried another team 10/0/12 when did they change Kat's dagger to do magic damage? shiiiit that makes so many more viable AP kat builds possible nomnomnom.
kats stuff has always been magic dmg, thats why you get sorc shoes on her. bb still scales with ad tho, just does increased dmg with mpen.

Her Q scales with physical while dealing magic damage.
Her E scales with AP.
Her ult punishes you for building hybrid.
Yeah Kat's overall design has confused me for a while.

You guys were right, annie is ez mode. I went like 8-1 with her in the first 12 minutes. Glad my team was there to balance things out. Goooooo liquidparty.

I'm pretty terrible at Annie, but so tempted... as a pretty good annie player, i don't see this being great on her, but i'm gonna try it right now and get back to you. i didn't think it would rock so hard on galio either so we'll see Locket mundo>locket annie imo. You don't even need mana to make it work. if you arent trolling locket is somewhat good on irelia and udyr OO Locket basically synergizes greatly with every character who relies on some sort of regen (mundo, sona, udyr, gragas and irelia's health, veigar's mana) and that doesn't necessarily need items to up his damage thanks to some passive effect of his (mundo's cleaver dealing a % of dmg and his E giving him flat+dmg, gragas because of his double regen, udyr relying on AS which already comes from runes and his passive, veigar getting free AP from his Q).
Right now I see locket being a strong choice on nasus (who just needs farm and has shittons of money to spend on whatever he wants), alistar (although the amount of farm that getting locket+sheen takes is probably unlikely to happen in a real game) and possibly blitzcrank to sync with his passive.
Also I am thinking about pushing people into taking ghost/ignite as a standard, on EU ghost/flash isn't anywhere near as standard as in the US since the metagame is revolving entirely against shutting down hardcarries (3 exhausts per team is the average since no caster is OP right now). Since ignite always worked vs mundo it should be fine vs heal and regen comps aswell I guess...

Although you still have to teach some of your allies the basics of LoL while you deny bottom lane, go 10-0-X and get 20 Mejai stacks. Sona can't finish games, so you better raise yourself a carry...

I disagree with locket on Udyr because that's almost a Sunfire Cape.

Same really, Locket has been going up in my go-to item list and Sunfire steadily dropping. It is just rare that I'd want to get a sunfire instead of HoG x2 into Randuins. Phoenix is a strong enough skill as it is that the additional 40dps from sunfire feels rather pitiful. Locket on the other hand has been serving me quite well, closing games where I have secured enough of an advantage to feel like I can blow a bit over 2k on an item that gives me no additional mitigation.
My early item builds as of late is starting to look like HoG, mercs, cata, heh.
|
I actually started skipping HoG altogether on Udyr and just straight rushing a sunfire, but I will try out this locket idea. I didn't do it since the locket nerf but it used to be nearly unstoppable on him so if the nerf wasn't as big as I think it was maybe it's worth it.
|
I mean the big issue with me is that I'm hardly ever in phoenix in teamfights, it's mainly bear and turtle. I play him as a tank stunbot and not a damage dealer though, so the sunfires really supplement my dps.
|
I was talking with Uta about it once, and he pointed out how the likes of lilballz have a kd ratio of 2 to 1 as whereas he and I would have like a kd ratio of 1 because ballz would be highly aggressive with Udyr as a carry hunting beast, thus the fast randuins. I used to play the sunfire heavy builds too, but in general I've been feeling that Udyr as a babysitter, while good, is not the optimal way to play him. Turtle's tanking ability and bear's chase add up to make him amazing at hunting squishies. Not to mention that the diminishing scaling on bear's stun and the overall low dps of going purely on sunfire simply doesn't get much done on time.
|
I don't play Udyr, but ever since I started rushing randuins on Shen I've wondered why I thought sunfire was so great. I don't even stack HoG anymore, because it slows down the randuins.
|
Yeah it looks like Jatt went randuins + locket in his last ranked game on udyr so it's probably worth it to pick locket up lol
|
I don't know about Shen, but on Udyr HoG stacking is still fairly legit imoimoimo. I mainly do it when I am forced into actually tanking with Udyr instead of getting to chase around carries.
The problem I have with Locket atm is that while it provides an absurd amount of EHP, you'll still want a negatron. And 2.2k+740 is pretty much a Banshees there. In closer games I just feel the effects of the MR+Shield from banshees more, and thus without some good early game I am really uncomfortable going a locket. Though when team has no heals I put a bit more priority on locket, every bit of regen helps in poking wars =/
