When Riot releases champs imba, they get a lot of champ sales, they can just tone down the champion than try to tone up the champion which seems to be easier, and they get more traffic on the forums. iirc, it also has to do with initial perception - look at Swain, Maokai and Lux. All 3 are stronger than release, but you see less of them than nerfed-but-viable champions like Miss Fortune, LeBlanc or Renekton. Then there's poor Kog'maw... | ||

Well they sure aren't. He says that "based on personal experience on combinations" it seems that the chances for each rune are equal. He can't possibly have done enough combinings to draw statistically relevant data from that - he needs to test for equal likelyhood of 93 results... I don't wanna do the math for that right now, but I'm pretty sure you need a pretty damn large sample size for that. Now for the actually interesting part of that link: Recombining 205 IP runes indeed is improving your IP savings. I was able to push the expected average value of combined runes from 444 IP to 446 IP by removing the 6 or so 205 IP runes I listed as good runes. Oh yeah right, the difference is barely noticeable. But hey if you consider all the runes except for the 205 IP ones useful, then you get an expected average value of 746 IP, almost twice as much as the actual cost. So yeah, if you are trying to get a full set of every type of rune, you can save almost 50% if you combine. Seriously, don't use the rune combiner unless you do it just for fun. | ||

Brand: nope. Lee Sin: nope. Nocturne: was definitely imba on release. Now is just strong. Jarvan: lolimba Maokai: undervalued but not superstrong by any means. Karma: no way is Karma imba Renekton: patch preview, imba. on release, underpowered. buffed a little, imba. Besides, none of the new champions are anywhere near on-release Udyr, Poppy, or Corki. Riot has, in fact, learned quite a bit. (though most of the problem with poppy was her Q being bugged) Releasing OP champs makes money. No random pub player will buy a champ just because he's new if he doesn't have OMG I WANT THAT features or is straight up OP. (Personally I expect a lot of the OP OMG cries on release due to players playing the champ learn it quicker than people learn to play against it.) But yeah, I blame money. | ||

I tried streaming before but if I wanted even 30 fps my quality was crappy and I simply can't play on 30 fps....let alone less. :S Can you tell me what playing on 60 fps is like, because then I may be able to understand you better as a regular 30 fps-er. | ||

Well, on 30 fps I always have a delay between my clicks and what I want to do. Same things happen when my ping skyrockets for some reason and goes to like, 200+. So i you have ping lag it's the same to me as lower fps. ;/ | ||

I've played LoL on my friend's computer and everything always looks so beautiful and smooth. One of my friends got a new computer went from being a laggy lagger like me to being a proballer 60 fps-er and he informed me that the game has actually become "fun", and that he will not spend as much time trolling with me anymore =/ | ||

Streaming at 30 fps vs 60 will cut down on the bandwidth needed by ~half. | ||

If you don't believe me, start a thread in TL general discussion or something because it's not worth cluttering this thread. | ||
