Anyone knows why does he go for archaic knowledge even though both Q and R deal physical dmg? He goes Perseverance over Good Hands too. I am not so sure if all those mastery setups are all that thought out.
Does that explanation for BT > IE make sense to anyone? BT only heals you when you attack, but he says that you run when you get low, so BT doesn't heal you because you, well, run instead of attacking. Also carries usually die to burst, not slowly. BT doesn't do much there. If you want a reason to go BT > IE, it should be Q and R not scaling with crit. But autoattacking with IE is just too good imo. Another reason would be better sustainability in lane, but he only mentions sustainability in fights. Also that early Zeal... I don't get it. It's a lot of money spent on crit. Crit is a weak stat this early in the game. Finishing zerkers earlier seems much better to me. And zerkers + zeal before any big items is extremely weak.

Can jiji be streaming The Hangover, lol?

I would completely disregard that "guide". All points Spine mentioned are valid. I prefer to play with BT as well, because it scales your Q and R better, its cheaper and gives you better lane presence if you can get it in 15 minute mark (considering I am at bot lane with support) or earlier. Zeal+Berserk only makes sense if team is full of noncc champions, otherwise Cait will die a lot, even with good nets but still its inferior to fast BF Sword.

Sometimes I wonder if high-Elo players purposely put bad ideas into their guides to troll people with, but the ideas aren't bad enough that you realise s/he is trolling.
On a side note, I think BT>IE because it gives more raw AD and Cait shouldn't have a hard time charging her BT up. Her long range should also let her kite well. It's also cheaper by ~600 so that means finishing Beserkers earlier. I don't actually play Cait though, so this is more theory-crafting than anything else. I think Clever Advisor goes IE first.

Why does watching Hotshot+Jiji+Chaox+Lapakaa+Westrice play 5s vs Europeans not seem any different from watching 5-man team full of CLG players play vs Europeans coordination-wise?
|
CLG has always been 5 great solo que players vs 5 man teams. Not much coordination from CLG which is why when they dont win all lanes they lose most of the time, unless they steal baron lol.

What do you guys think of double-heal teams? One of them almost certainly has to be Nidalee in a normal comp, but i've played a few Soraka+Nidalee games and it feels so absurd to basically be able to heal someone for 2k+ on the engage.

I thought I saw someone running triple support in ESL games last week against CLG(?). IIRC they had Zilean, Sona, Soraka and it worked out pretty good for them as it was jsut impossible to kill anyone.

I am tired of constantly switching my stream adress, so I am stuck with Livestream for the next little while. Is there any way for my stream to keep broadcasting even when i enter/exit LoL games or are they too derp to put that in?
Also, I played against my first Urgot yesterday. If you can't dodge E, you can't dodge a ball. I suck at dodgeball.

I tune in to SK Oce's stream and I see that he doesn't look like a total douche and it should be fun watching him... Then 5 seconds later he dies to Cass as Karthus and proceeds to tell his Mumu to die of several types of cancers and that his mom has AIDS....
Now every1 in his games are trolling him about it and especially all of the other SK members on Teamspeak.

I wouldn't say it was so much that unR "won" those games as CLG decided they wanted to throw them away for free.

Most Urgots aim the E slightly behind you since they expect you to run backwards. So sometimes you want to walk forwards a bit instead. Opening Boots+3Pots also helps a lot in this regard.
Or play Lanewick. That guys shrugs of harass like a baws.

Yeah, i probably should figure they are aimed like that. I do the same thing with Swain's W. Oh well, I am just glad that Urgots are far and wide between.

If you are dedicated to updating the OP with content other, hopefully extremely skilled, people post in that thread then go ahead and make the thread. You could be 500 elo and play AD Rumble yourself - as long as you link guides made by good players in the thread it's going to be a good thread.
And of course I expect you not to be completely incompetent either.

Apparently, HotshotGG's account got hacked by some Polish guy and he changed the summoner name to "King of Kimchi". That's pretty... uh, weird I suppose. The name choice, I mean.

Also, at this. It's not updated. And it doesn't have M Regen or Health Regen on it. Tiamat is actually cost efficient on mine.

What, I've never seen him use that account before... even so, some of his rune pages were called "Greetings from Poland" "Change your password" and the likes. I guess I just assumed that they changed the name as well, haha.
