There's a pretty big difference to a champion being PICKED and banned and always being banned. Vlad being first picked suggests that the other team believe they can get sufficient compensation for it.


no? it means that there are other champs that are even more bullshit than vlad...
Alistar, TF, vayne are all capable of causing even more trouble than vlad does. just because there are 6 champs more banworthy than vlad doesn't mean he's not banworthy himself, all it means is that those champs need a nerf too -_-


Well, vlad isn't as OP as people are saying he is then, especially if they are 6 other champs more OP than him. :p



no you're getting causation and correlation mixed up
just because there are champs that are MORE OP than vlad, does not mean that he is NOT OP.

Yesterday was Cass, today is Vlad. Who's the OP champ tomorrow?

Sarcasm? This is the same logic that put Eve and Corki in the UP category for ages.

#1 Veigar vs Vlad strategy. Vlad goes top and gets fed, you go bottom and feed. Then in the midgame 1 shot Vlad because he has a bajillion AP, collect all the gold bonuses, carry to victory.

Cass was the UP champ who sucked balls yesterday. Trust me, I spent all day arguing about it.

I don't understand why the discussion of vlad is always on his laning. He is just an untouchable laner who can farm easily but the main thing is that he is retarded good in teamfights. He basically needs to be focused down or else he just kills your entire team, and even if he is his ults is one of the best teamfighting ults around.

its usually on his laning because he isnt as untouchable as some people think until hes got a few ranks of Q
if you shut him down hard and get him underleveled, he wont be as much threat to teamfights unless you let him farm his way back into the game
You can't milk those!

All I can remember is shutting down this really bad vlad so hard as caitlyn that he was lvl 4 when I was lvl 9 in lane and he rq at 15 mins after the first teamfight. God that made me feel so good.

I'm fairly sure we weren't arguing over whether or not she's OP.
The discussion was her viability.

Saintvicious jungle GP, good jungler or best jungler?

corki sucked before they buffed him

at least compared to the OP carries of the ranged carry/aoe meta

Corki didn't suck, it's just that you could abuse AoE way too much back then.

Gragas still #1 most imbalanced in my heart. (RIOT pls nerf)
Triforce Gragas is actually pretty strong btw. If attackspeed debuffs stack additively (which I believe they do), Tryhardforce Randuins Frozheart is amazing for 1v1ing squishies.

Yorick's skill descriptions are out:
http://www.leagueoflegends.com/news/new-champion-approaches-yorick-gravedigger

Anyone think that he seems like he'll be a decent jungler? Some AD steroid power, ghouls tank jungle monsters, a sustainability skill, and a ranged slow for ganking power.

We have no idea how the ghoul interaction/range works quite yet though.
Also I wish they had a picture of the ultimate...seems like reverse Morde to me.
Ghost appears which you need to focus down or ignore champion it was put on.
