I agreed with you triforce because it is riddiclous on GP but you took it as offense ^^ (I build it 24/7 on GP too)

Shurelyas is troll yeah but I don't know what's wrong with Randuin and FoN

Oh wow I need to try that, that way I can get 5 gold per 5 items and still get Sheen pretty quickly for unmatched lane domination. Thanks for the idea

FoN and Rhanduins are both items who scale really well with other tanking items and you wont build more than 2-3 tank items (counting atmas) on GP anyways.

If youre actually doing full tankplank with only atmas and triforce for damage I can see FoN and rhanduins work otherwise get GA / Frozen heart for armor and Banshees for MR.

Wanted items are about the same on Gang as with Irelia and Chaox is just building Triforce into FoN and Randuins


He building Shurelyas too, this build is seriously OP.

Hello all - long time lurker, first (third) time poster. Just randomly turned on the Dreamhack tournament since it was advertised in the LoL login screen - I have a question for the people in here, who seem relatively knowledgeable.

Why are they banning carries such as Rumble/TF/Vladimir, when the general trend in ranked games is to ban tanks such as Rammus? I'm still very new to LoL, probably only 150 games won in normal and 1100 ELO...

I really hope to see Dyrus play Singed. You guys seem to think very highly of it. What's his secret?

Thanks, I hope to catch you guys on the liquidparty channel.

Erm at low ELO tanks imba and they like to ban tanks. Low elo ranked games are basically no reflection on what is actually imba/good in the game, and trends tend to stick around forever there. The bans at DH much better the current most popular and op champs.

And hello!

Because tanks are terrible. Low elo players hate tanks because they cant cs well enough to actually kill a tank.

Tanks=not banworthy, and low elo is ~6-7 months behind where the game actually is.

OK, so it's basically a lack of team coordination at low level. When you say cs, do you mean crowd control or just general zoning etc?

I guess now I have the question - what's the proper way as a team to take out these strong tanks that are always banned?

Tanks are stronger in low level play because you can easily make a mistake and still get away with it. When a squishy makes a mistake, he gets insta bursted

CS is creep score, how many minions you kill.

Best way to kill a tank: get your big damage item (ie or cap) faster than they can build defense. That means killing minions fast and getting lots of gold.

Oh, cs... I didn't know that acronym, people generally just refer to it as last hits. Sorry, last question, I know I'm nub: I was reading a thread on the LoL forums that was talking about global ultimates, specifically pertaining to Shen. Is he ban worthy at high level because he can insta-save any carry champion with his ultimate?

Meh, I dont think so. Shen got hit a bit with nerfs, and he has a lot of trouble tanking and dealing as much damage as someone like jarman or irelia. Pure tanks just arent all that good atm in this game.

Shen used to be super strong but changes in metagame and nerfs on ulti+his damage have hurt him a lot.

OK thanks. Irelia as a tank? I've only ever seen her played as an assassin - do you mean building her as a main tank or just tanky dps?
