Not to mention his synergy with bruisers.... which is probably going to be half your team comp.

No blue buff though... so obnoxious on some casters, like zil.
How do you replace it - Morello's evil tome (personally this is what I do)? Glacial shroud?

if you need mana really badly I think chalice is probably nuts on this map (heimer, aniv come to mind)... it should work with the scar bonus right?

Dominion is a lot of fun. I enjoy how it's not as passive as SR is. The action starts at a minute 30 and doesn't end until the very end. I've won games with less than 25% of my nexus health remaining. It's new and hasn't been completely figured out yet. I still don't know how the system decideds which two points are going to be the quest points, and when the quests even start.

guess im just not feeling it then, played 1 game and it was the most boring thing ive ever done...you kinda just run around and press buttons no real strategy to it. It wasn't because I lost, because we won so idk.

my biggest gripe with dominion is I dont feel like you can "outplay" anyone. its like a starcraft UMS map at best where just everyone is about the same level, no room for improvement

yeah thats pretty much it. I'm sure playing dominion non-stop is going to make you a worse SR player. If you want to out play some one you need to hold all 5 points. Thats how you out play some one.

It reminds me a lot of Arathi Basin. You could probably do well holding 3 points, the 2 closest to your nexus plus the one at the top. Put 2 on your outermost captures, and have one float going back and forth, plus one from each point designated to pull back to your innermost capture if they sneak in from the jungle. Your float can also harass their back lines, quickly darting in and capturing one of their 2 points, or sniping off low HP retreating heroes (I'm thinking Katarina/Talon/Shaco for the float)

It only annoys me b/c I mostly play support chars (Janna/Lux mainly) and they're kinda terrible on this map. Maybe something pure heal like Soraka or Taric I would enjoy more?

If your team takes 3/4 of the beefy dps guys, Soraka is actually really good imo. You get tons of AP since everyone gets money, and you heal for a ton since you have a ton of AP. Your Q spam lets you contest points, push the creeps to a point, and reduce MR and sometimes kill non bursty guys even, and then your silence is great. Just stick with a beefy guy all the time cause you can die to most of the burst champs that people play really fast, and your W is OP on the tanky dps guys since they'll never die.

Haven't tried the other supports, people said janna works, so you can try that out.

Teamwide movespeed buff is awesome. Janna is the only "support" I'd bother playing. She has decent AP ratios so just build like a standard carry.

Get Triforce instead, with APen runes. It hurts.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

i c wut u did thar, but siege tank joke already run into ground.

Also Brees, I know you're a master troll so do you not like normals because enemy teams end up being super tryhard 99% of the time ruining the fun of shit like follow the leader? Or do you really just not like the idea of follow the leader? I think it's one of the more fun ways to play normals, although less fun if queued with 5.

Karma.

She doesn't fit in the SR meta but after some CDR and AP she's totally unfair on Dominion.
