Being new to ranked (finaly lvl30), I can 100% agree to guys saying that playing jungle is the best way to carry a game. Even if they're terrible, your team mates will farm after you succeeded your ganks and you'll be able to take a tremendous advantage if you ward and warn them, making your opponents gank fail.

But you have to play non teammate dependant ganker like fiddle though ! With GP as an example, as you have no hard CC, it will be harder to gank all alone.

Jungle is #1 scapegoat for all things though, so keep that in mind. Bot pushing to tower 24/7 and gets ganked? Your fault for not being there. Mid roams and dies? Your fault for not having enough wards. Top dies to their lane opponent? Your fault for not ganking every 30 seconds.

Even if you do pull off successful ganks, they'll be mad at you a minute later for not repeating it, and again as soon as they die once you'll start getting yelled at.

You know we have a wonderful «ignore» button, right ?
And never forget the other side is supposedly as bad. It's VERY rare that you don't have at least 1 lane gankable 90% of the time.

With fiddle, it's just free rape. And in team fights, as everybody engages stupidly, you just have to wait for them to waste 5 ults on your tank/support, fiddle ult, silence, zonya, ???, profit.

Statikk posted so much information about future champion development plans, I enjoyed reading it.

Im happy that Lee Sin's Q is getting nerfed, I actually thought the early game output from it was so ridiculous.

please enlighten me on how to play Riven properly, early game ur not going to do well as solo top against most popular solo top picks, duo lane ur gonna get pushed around easily by ranged AD or casters, not going to have enough survivability to last long enough in lanes even if u max E first, nor do u have enough dmg output or disable to have strong presence in lane, mid game once u get some decent farm u could start doing well, then late game comes and u get blown up easily unless u build tanky enough, which then lowers ur dmg in team fights...

i'm in some sort of identity crisis on whether i should play as a tanky bruiser or a melee assassin...

An interesting read, I disagree with a few of the posts he made but over all that guy on the first page who was nice enough to consolidate everything made reading through it much easier.

In particular, I'm not a fan of heimerdinger's remake causing his turrets to be an offensive/temporary option instead of a permanent option. They are plenty offensive enough with the charges and <1 second cooldown on the ability itself that a prepared heimer can have his turrets up in a fight easily enough. Nor is there anything conceptually wrong with a "permanent trap" type of ability.

Heimerdinger's largest issue is fighting amongst minions, where two of this three abilities have the chance of being largely useless during a fight. Want to change him from the Herpadinger to the Heimerwinner? Let turrets / Rockets prefer champions over minions, perhaps only during his ultimate to prevent in-lane abuse.

Hehe, this happened to me just a few days ago. Seriously, I gank the shit out of lanes just as long as the wave isn't 24/7 pushed to towers. So if one retard complains about ganks, I just tell him the mistakes he made (he didn't ward his lane a single time, and is surprised he got ganked like 4 times), while he insults me and I put him on ignore.

heimerdinger has gotta be the worst designed champion in the game, maybe the second worst after yorick... It would be pretty hard to change him so he became MORE obnoxious/boring. Fuck that guy. EDIT: and guy above, he is not weak. Heimerwinnerdinger is a nightmare scenario, he does not need 'buffs'

He used to be more obnoxious :o What you see now is the toned down version of Heimer

If you have one lane which is overextended you, the jungler, should try to be nearby. AFK farming is really tempting, but killing the three small camps is all of 188 gold in total. If a lane get ganked and killed that's 300 gold for the enemy team + assist gold (possibly twice that) and your teammate loses whatever they would have farmed while they're dead.

I'm not saying your teammates have any right to be yelling at you for their decision to be all the way at the enemy tower for no good reason or that you should be some magic omnipresent force. However, there are things you can do to try and salvage that sort of situation and counterganking can result in some ridiculous kills.

In the scrim Dan Dinh played heimer and basically won the game with poke so it doesn't look like he's that bad atm.

What? Heimer is fun. He relies on team coordination - he sucks in your average solo Q game. He doesn't have the burst that most other casters have, but his DPS is amazing if someone is stupid enough to run into 2 ulted turrets. He is an amazing pusher in coordinated teams, but he can also be countered.

Caitlyn is much worse. Ridiculous in lane, amazing pusher, works like a charm in solo Q, doesn't rely on blue buff 24/7.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

People saying Riven is nearly ban-worthy... I still don't see it. I have not yet found a build that makes her 100% scary to people. I feel that she's one of those champs where if you build her tanky, she does no damage, but if you build her glass cannon, she can't do anything through CC and focus fire.

What are people building to make her viable? Atmogs? Straight damage Ghostblade/BT/FMallet?

Heimer is horrendously not fun to play against imo. I seriously hope he never gets popular.

Clearly he has never played with TF 1.0 or when tower shots were dodge-able

This heimer is nothing in terms of obnoxiousness

People are very wrong, lol. I think riven is incredibly mediocre/weak.

Maybe I just suck with her, but I doubt it.

heimer is fine in solo q. All you have to do is get blue and park your team outside a tower, which is secretly what they want to do anyway, and then spam W and you get the tower. The rest of the time you're just defensively immovable. He's far and away the best poke hero in the game and it's an awful, repetitive experience when he's being played right. Not to mention you can see how awful his design is just by looking at his passive, or the fact that his W is stronger than his Q which is supposed to define him, or his long turret cooldown, or his absurd manacosts, or his fiddly, only for defense E, or everything about his ult which you don't even take at six.

I really need to learn how to jungle. Seems like a fun job in the game and two champs I really like: fiddle and nocturne seem to be primarily jungle chars (at least from all the bitching I see when someone trys to lane with them)
