irelia vs renekton is fine l0l full armor runepage and cloth 5 np. once i had wriggles that game vs renek i dominated the lane. irelia vs anyone is fine since w is op you just stack whatever resistance you need. q is also op for lasthitting under tower which is why i ended up 40 cs ahead of rumble vs tx or whatever. but id rather play cho or galio if we're running kog. renek, udyr, etc just rushed kog and there was nothing i could do about it, although part of that probably had to do with the amount of death going on earlier in the game.

Yeah we don't have a ryze player. I still think cho will be a strong pick if they run renekton. They seem to really like lategame comps though so they might just run nasus or gp.

i play ryze o.o zil also those are like the only aps i play.

What time will you be back? We were planning on ~7pm pst (10pm est) We can push it forward maybe an hour (8pm pst) but that's about it or otherwise I can't play and then we need another sub lol. Going to talk to him around 6-6:30pm pst to figure out exact time though. ;o

I don't think these damage comparisons are relevant to that game, is the thing. You have Kog, Irelia, Brand. Damage is NOT the department where your carries are lacking--your weakness is lack of defensive CC for the purpose of protecting 2 carries that both have no escapes-compounded by the fact that your chosen support, Soraka, ALSO does not offer that sort of protection. Your jungler absolutely needed to be one that could transition into being a defensive support lategame, not a damage dealer. In terms of jungle control/ganking, Rammus was fine, but where he's lacking is that his protective power simply did not meet the needs of your team. Hence why I said that Maokai and Nunu were the best picks (though Jungle Cho'gath or Alistar were also reasonable off-beat picks that might sacrifice early control).


You are right, but at the same time I feel like because of the amount of single-target stuns they had, if we throw rammus at them, they'd have to pick pretty hard between throwing those stuns at rammus or keep trying to bumrush our carries, since their damage was pretty lackluster.

If Ezreal tries to kite rammus, then he can just go back to killing Kennen or whatnot. If Ezreal doesn't buy CDR boots his damage and mobility goes way down in teamfight as well, and if he does buy CDR boots then 3 second taunt will absolutely demolish him in 1 flash.

This is a pretty tough discussion though because I don't know how much you have actually tried to experiment with DPS rammus.

I can usually tell pretty well if a build worked because it's gimmicky/opponents played bad, and when it's genuinely good. In this case I'd say it's pretty good considering I could completely insta-gib fed solo carries (3-0 swain, albeit his flash was down but him being at full health) in 3 seconds while being 0-0-0 out of jungle with just zerker greaves and wriggles.

The thing is, if DPS Rammus is enough damage to be a relevant danger to the threats on the enemy team, then what's the point of picking Kog'maw and Brand, who are not self-sufficient in team-fights? If you're not going to bring the necessary support to keep them safe in fights, and don't need their vastly superior damage output, then they're going to end up being a liability, and you'd have been better off picking more supportive/self-sufficient AD/AP.

TL: udyr, taric, ez, brand, akali

Navi will be playing for us in place of ChoBz feeding his sick sis because he didn't just listen and feed her sooner lol. If Navi doesn't get back in 5 mins though we're playing 4v5 lolol. Too strong.

edit: and ya, AP janna mid but cass is literally one of the only AP champs that can beat that shit. -_-

janna/ww/ryze/cait gives you probably the lowest damage comp possible

Wellllll, I think "brute force" is a legitimate strategy to be honest, in which you load up so much high-threat targets making it impossible for the other team to any target before the other ones overcompensate in damage.

At the very least their team comp would have trouble dealing with this because of Taric and Renekton being lack-luster when your team can get rolled over.

Okay so games were here:

NOTE: WE KNOW WE HAD BAD PICKS lol
No need to diagnose anything. We know where we fucked up. We used this to diagnose what we need to improve and we're going to practice on all of those things. Next tourny we'll do better. =)
