Found this blog on /r/LoL. Pretty fun read if you're into other peoples' analyses, etc.

Just hit level 30 and played some ranked games. First few were blowouts, next 3 were with horrible teams. In one of them I went Sion first to have some tanky dps, and then when I ask for more AP when the remaining picks are AD/hybrid at best, the guy goes Teemo. Teemo/Akali then feed for the next 20 minutes, Warwick has heal (should have dodged right then) and kind of is at top, kind of jungling while doing nothing productive, and my entire team bickers amongst itself while refusing to surrender. End score is like 14-44, and Teemo's only items are a Warmog's and a Giants' Belt. I think he had heal too. -_-

Also no one has any idea what to do against Shen at this level. They're all like: he's low on HP, let's dive a turret! I went Shen myself out of frustration and while I felt kind of useless early on, eventually the taunt and Ashe's frost arrows turned a few fights in our favor, culminating in my ward seeing them attempt Nashor's while extremely low on health, resulting in 4/5 of them dying when me and Nocturne ganked them and the rest of the team shows up for cleanup. If you told me my third ranked game win would be Shen I would have been like "hahaha, yeah right."

Reverse Annie looks pretty awesome!

And now we have:
Since 4 rotations we've had 39 distinct champs (just 1 repetition - Shen).
Since 6 rotations we've had 49 distinct champs. (7 - 55, 8 - 58)
And we have 2 champs that were unavailable for far too long (Nida - week 39, Gragas - week 33)
So those rotations are quite solid for smb who wants to try many champs.
And at the same time they provide good selection for new players.

Wow, they really don't like Evelynn. :O
Btw speaking of Shen avaliable this week, does anyone play him now ? Wouldn't he need a remake maybe ?


Imo Shen is still great. He can turn any fight into a 2v1 or a 3v2. People feel he isn't strong enough to hold that top lane that he needs and i suppose that is somewhat of a fair complaint but not every game is gonna have a top Udyr.

It doesn't matter--so long as the top laner has remotely any pushing ability (and incidentally most of the top laners that aren't good at pushing are the super-sustainable melees like Udyr and Warwick), they can force you into awkward situations post-6 where 1-2 ultis will result in losing your tower. This didn't happen in the tank+support bottom lanes on US because the support could hold the lane and try to limit tower damage even if you TPed mid or top.

Shen is competent and can win games, the only question is whether it's really worth playing an underpowered hero, but people played stuff like Trynd so I dunno what's stopping them.

Even when he was overpowered, many people considered Shen fairly boring to play. I'm assuming that's why he's played less than similarly underpowered heroes.

I saw a solo top Shen beat a solo top Udyr a couple nights ago. It blew my mind.

I was playing on TwoDown, so it was some 1600 ninja beating down some 1600 udyr, so less impressive than you'd think.

did anyone else know veigar is actually insane with a stun support bot lane? I had this setup in a game last night and was very surprised at how well he does with babysitting, really made me rethink how good the hero might be.

Veigar Soraka is fairly common, at least before this upcoming patch. Do you not remember my anguished wails of how Veigar(!) Soraka stomps a lot of lanes? #1 blatant overpowered healer kthx.

He still sucks as a hero though.
