So
All AOE team legit?
Sure works in normals, and at my ELO (hovering around 1200)

EG. Galio Corki Mumu Kennen GP or something,

What's the point?

Of having a useless Annie and a Janna that is only moderately stronger than she would be with 0 farm?
Of having Annie bottom and not something like Orianna mid?

If the only thing you want is a Janna, but not bottom because she's weak there in the current meta:
Why not run her as Jungle/Roamer. She doesn't need to clear camps quickly, she doesn't even need any buffs to gank. It's fine if she doesn't keep up in farm very well, and she will grab enough XP from small camps and lots of ganking.

The reason that you don't roam Janna is because roaming isn't "good". It's pretty much as close as you get to a 4pool in LoL. It only works if others don't expect it, and nowadays most people do.

Support scale nicely from levels, even if you don't typically let them farm. Just the HP gained is HUGE

Errm lol no, roaming IS good. It's just that ranged + support shuts down most 1v2 lanes. But if you either can do that 1v2 decently or don't have a real jungler, then roaming is perfectly fine. Jungle Shaco does that, pretty much. Jungle Alistar too.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

You also forgot to include that they said they will continue to drop the price of older champions as time goes on, that makes it a lot easier for newer players to get a larger champion base in a shorter time (for things like ranked)

Agree. If you can get lanes like Cait/Janna (the cait can 1n2 a lot of lanes pretty early) or a simple Chogath/Gragas/Maokai to 1n2 bot going you have the free'd up spot for a roamer without a lot of colletaral damage pretty early.

Janna just excels at roaming and taking mapcontrol by absurd amounts of wards/early oracle/uncatchability.

Also, at least up to 1800 elo EU, people still have no clue how to play vs people who know how to roam. The HARD part about roaming is the correct botlane setup and your team not flaming you all over the place because you suggest like Cho bot and AD solo top. (Duo Q helps)

(on my US account)
I don't have Cho yet. I spent most of my IP on runes and still lack a bunch. Sadly I own the other 2 champs already, can't they look up what champs I don't own and decrease the price of those?

Sidenote: WHY IS EU LP ALWAYS BROKEN?

Isn't the server split enough?

Check LP channel, 6 online. Check friendslist, at least 5 more online. Don't even want to know who's also out there in the abysmal darkness of other lost channels. =(

Boo I just bought Taric. But yeah it's good for new people to the game but most people who have been playing for at least a couple months are going to have those champs.

I think that's the point actually. So newer players can unlock a bunch of heroes faster. Free annie for me basically, not that I ever play AP Carries so ^_^

Still too much champs at 6300 imo, but I like this idea, I may buy Cho sometime.

No, why am I hating on CLG. That's bad. They need money to go to Europe for that one tourney, since no1's going to pay for their trip which costs tons of $$$. No sponsor's going to invest heavy $$$ into the LoL competitive scene either.

I feel like Riot should pay for their trip. It feels gay that top tier teams have to pay from their own pocket or get donations every time they go on to play a global tournament halfway across the world. Like that doesn't hurt their competitive scene.

Seriously LoL needs sponsors. TSM have been doing everything they could for donations and Reginald has to put in his own money to go to germany, CLG has to do the same because the next IEM stop is going to be in fucking china, and after that comes WCG in korea.

Yeah.. I agree that they need help from Riot or a sponsor or something, but it just felt kind of transparent after an hour of waiting. Dunno why Riot with its millions can't spend $5k a team to move them.

Because all the fucking EU teams got all that shit covered that's why. The problem with the US teams is that they're small time and/or give barely any funding to their LoL team.

For example TSM, who are sponsored by thermaltake like SC2's check6 only get hardware, and they only get 1 each. If, say, a mouse is broken they send it back to thermaltake and they'll get a new one.


Evil Geniuses was looking to pick up a team in late august, but that's old info and I have no idea what scoots is up to. Might ask him again at MLG Raleigh. btw no LoL players have any info about MLG picking the game up, chances are that was just Sundance trolling.

They've also been talking about HoN on their twitters lately so unless they're doing LoL and HoN...I wouldn't hold my breath ^_^

If scoots did pick up a LoL team what would happen to epik gaming. it'd be really funny having two eg teams ^_^
