I think Id rather have support sion now instead of support taric. Better ult, the ability to actually mess around a bit aggressively, and equal heals.

This new UI gives me a massive headache.. so many akward gradients, strong colors and glow effects surround everything.. WTF is this.

And the kill announcement is just so fucking redudant when you already have one in the middle. I dont care who gets the assists..

Worst change in the history of LoL

Kayle is really strong this patch.

don't think she should be built towards ap or hybrid. She does really crazy splash dmg, and q scales off ad. Something like ad, but not squishy ad because of her low range.

Soraka Zilean lane real strong. How many duos can actually deal with being double-bombed repeatedly by a speed-boosted zilean who doesn't need to conserve mana. Pushing the lane is okay because it's such a pain in the ass to gank them ?_?

Why? Neither of them can really resist ganks all that well.

Speed boosts are poor gank escapes imo because when you get a stun on you it's mostly wasted. A flash-esque skill doesn't get wasted even if you get stunned.

Why would you want to run Soraka solo over anyone else? Everyone is saying that it's viable but why would you want to put the character who does absolutely no damage on your highest farm lane?

Sure, for troll comps/games, but people (not just on tl) are talking about it like it's actually going to be high-level viable...

She does deal a lot of damage actually if you build her tanky enough to be able to just stand in the middle of everything and spam Starcall. The increased MRes reduction amplifies the damage your allies deal by a ton.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Tanky soraka? My world just exploded....

Also, regardless of whether it's technically viable or not, it seems to me like there are 10-20 better picks for that same role.

Tanky as in: Rylais, RoA, Abyssal, maybe even WotA. Her passive and W provide you with mitigation.
Makes perfect sense if you consider that she took quite hit on her AP ratios and that you need to be in the middle of the fight if you want to deal damage.

Ban talon this week. every game.

also anyone else HATE the new scoreboard? the last one was smaller and had abit of transparency so I could bring it up and glance without obscuring my view too much. the new one is just so distracting. maybe im just not used to it yet. but man is it hard to parse. also i didnt realize how jarring these UI changes would be. even in the game finish screen, its so much harder for me to see anything.

Soraka silence outranges common gap closers from the jungler and stops their flash as well so it's VERY hard to get them if you have ward to let you know in advance.

You just have to not play like a total moron. Ideally get your jungler to pressure bot lane super early to get them away from the creeps so that zilean can put a double bomb without pushing the lane, and then after that it's like hello.

It won't work out perfectly everytime but when it does work, it's basically a total shutdown.

Hotshot did that Talon test on stream yesterday, 2500 ranked games and he didn't even know what Talon abilities were and still didn't fully understand the nuances after the 2nd game. Worst part is that Saint was telling him what to do but he wasn't listening.

Second the crap new UI. the scorebord is actualy to big and makes it take longer to check everything by having to move your eyes a lot more and the end score screen just looks really disorganised compared to the old one.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death
