Welcome to the General Discussion thread for the League of Legends subforum. Free feel to talk about anything LoL related here that does not already have its own thread. While posting standard tend to be rather lax in this thread, pointless spam will not be tolerate.

The newest champion for this patch is Talon.


Patch 1.0.0.124: Live on Aug 24th, 2011
+ Show Spoiler +
League of Legends v1.0.0.124
Talon, the Blade's Shadow
Noxian Diplomacy: Talon viciously stabs his enemy, dealing heavy physical damage and causing them to leave a blood trail that Talon can use to track them.
Rake: Talon fans out three blades in front of him that quickly return to him, dealing damage and slowing any target hit in either direction.
Cutthroat: Talon leaps behind his target and silences them for a short duration, amplifying the damage of any of his follow up attacks and abilities.
Shadow Assault (Ultimate): Talon enters stealth for a short duration, gaining a movement speed boost and sending blades that deal damage to all enemies in their path flying in every direction. Once the blades reach a certain distance, they pause and form a circle. When Talon reappears from stealth, the blades return to him, once again dealing damage to any opponent they pass through.
Mercy (Passive): Talon's auto-attacks deal additional damage to a target that is under the influence of any crowd control effect.

Loci is streaming now! He posted it in the other GD thread but I'll just repost it here for anyone who missed.

Neo, can we sigh a petition against splitting the GD threads?

To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if you could consider that a Soraka buff overall, considering the changes on Taric, Sona and Alistar.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

I'm probably going to retire from playing Xin after this patch. Riot must really hate Xin at lower elos or something.

@HazMat: we've went over this two weeks ago. It keeps the subforum organized and less bloated if the GDs are reset every so often. Not to mention the way I've set it up, I don't have to maintain both a GD thread and a Patch Notes thread. I'm sorry that the new thread truncates discussions/talk like about Loci's new stream but it took you 2 seconds to copy/paste his link and everyone is up to speed.

The thing with xin is that he too easally promotes passive lanes on bot in you are the North East team. And if they aren't passive (as in move post their tower ever) you get a free and easy double kill. I'm speaking from a jungle prospective, but if I ever see ashe/soraka lane happening bot I counter pick them with Xin and have like an 80% win rate with it because they can never move past they're turret. This is at like 1300 elo that I can get away with this. Sure wards counter it, but as long as I stay near bot they cant farm at all. Super ezpz lane control.

You can do it to top too. Just loop around near Purple's outer tower and slow/knock up the same. I don't see how this is any different from an Udyr who can run the same path and stun your face or a Trundle who can place a pillar right in your retreat path. Third Xin nerf now and it's just getting ridiculous.

So Taric's in the Evelynn zone now - he's intentionally nerfed into badness with the promise of a rework of his skills in a future patch. At least Riot -says- it's "the patch after this one", but i'll be skeptical until we get some more information.
tree.hugger: Coming off of [(T)fantasy v. (T)Really] into [(T)Barracks v. (T)MVP] is like coming out of Manhattan into New Jersey. You just have to speed up and ignore it.

It has to do with the attack speed steroid that acts like built in CDR. E comes off CD even if they flash out from mid lane, if you have E at level 2 which is Blue start complete clear. The knock up is just Icing on the cake.

Instead of just nerfing Xin can we just have Knock ups be reduced by Tenacity? It would honestly be the only balanced thing to do. And it would make Cow alot less scary even if he isn't anymore.

i love how Loci circumvents the problem of deciding to spend extra money on wards or pots
instead of buying pots he just doesn't take damage

Xin nerfs blargh. I don't even know what they are thinking that they did this. On the bright side today I get to see if Talon is any good!

I'll still play Xin, I mean you can nerf him more and more but I'll keep playing him because I like the concept.

I don't. Roku is doing terrible job this game as well


BTW srsly xin nerfs... If he really is such a pubstomper increase his skillcap so it won't hurt any higher lvl xin players, for example make his spells casted by typing "Draco is a king protoss" in less than 1 second

Ouch! That is a bit much and more than it looks. If you switch the numbers around towards the ammount of damage taken, you see it is quite a nerf, especially on lvl 1 and 2.

lvl 1: -50% effect; +16% duration
lvl 2: -37% effect; same duration
lvl 3: -07% effect; -15% duration

Soraka mid gonna be so good. 5 seconds off the E and you can shred mr all day long with the new Q.

Hard counter all them AP users. Exchange with a silence in your face.

6 second CD, 2.5 sec silence, problem?
