AP Carry Mid - because AP carries rely on levels much more than farm.
AD Carry + Support Bot - because AD carries rely on farm much more than levels, and supports provide lane sustainability and they can babysit the AD carry.

Tanky DPS/AP (ex: Chogath, Nasus) who needs farm, Top.

2- After I get my runes, I'd like to buy an AP carry champ (since I don't play any). I'd like Lux or Karma (she interests me a lot, but haven't tried her yet). Which one would you advice ?


Lux is way better than Karma (who is considered underpowered).

Even if the first part was actually true (it's not, at least not generally)

Actually, looks like my 1st question was completely misunderstood.
And, I play Annie somtimes, but don't enjoy her much, and utility caster seems ways more interesting to me.

Something I have been wondering for a bit. Does your MR/Armour also reduce the amount of damage a shield takes (eg Janna's Shield) from an attack/spell or does the shield just take the straight full damage?

Lux is generally a better choice imo but then again Karma isn't really too widely discovered yet. She's strong but if you're looking for utility casters generally lux is better only because of her range. She can just sit in the back helping your team with cc/nukes. That can help teach you more about positioning too since if you get caught as lux you're instadead while karma can stand her ground better with how strong her shield gets with AP.

Yes, Armour+Mres helps. Blitz's shield from passive does not though.

There better be an Elo reset because I've heard rumors that it's postponed for another 2 weeks.

Hah.
You assume that the patch won't completely destroy the client for the next 3 days.
Not to mention the queue times or busy server that is sure to result from everyone wanting to log on and play at the same time.

In-game, when I press enter, and type to say things to my team, nothing happens. The game won't let me type in-game. Is this a glitch? Does anyone know how to fix it? It's kinda difficult not being able to communicate with your team lol.

You probably have a non-english language toggled. You need to press whatever hotkey switches you back to the roman alphabet to be able to type.

Im convinced this is a bit of a misconception. The right ad carry can use mid just as effectively as an ap carry, some even more so. Trist and corki both scale incredibly well with levels, and make mid essentially ungankable.

And puting the right ap carry/support bot has the potential to completely zone out the enemy team. How is anyone going to farm against taric brand? You move forward, you die.

You're right, it's a misconception. Also is currently the norm because it's easy to heap responsibility for wards and such on one person, and it's hard to swallow ego and share farm. Otherwise there's no real difference of sorts.
