i dont see how poppy is any more retarded than trynd, karthus or zilean, their ults all break basic game rules to give basically free kills.

things that completely block CC are more irritating than things that prevent death/damage IMO. it's part of the reason I'm tearing my hair out over the fact that Morgana's back in favor.

but yea, Poppy's does both, which makes it really infuriating and then you kill her but instead she's still alive anyway because of that damn passive.

Not to mention a lot of Le Blancs don't plan their build to get 40% cdr for the end game.

I was thinking more along the lines of blue pot and a DFG. DFG into QERQWW is good cause you root 2dps guys and still kill the carry.

I'm just hoping the changes they have planned for poppy end up including a meaningful change to her ult and not just stupid number tweaks.

numbers tweaks aren't capable of fixing anything about Poppy because she's already "fine" balance-wise. It's just that the whole kit is unfun and frustrating for everyone involved.

Can't a snowballing LB grab stuff like Banshee and CDR to help her survivability late game, instead of more AP to overkill more that poor carry who won't buy much defense anyway?

Stacks his saplings on wolves to instaclear them at 1:40, then gets a big pull on blue->wraiths->minis->bluepill->whatever. Item build is roughly boots->RoA->Sorcs or Mercs->Sheen/Spellblade/BVeil/Glacial in whatever order makes most sense for the game..


Just tried it. I thought it'd be strange and have a weak early, but if you can grab an early gank to get that catalyst then it scales quite fast once you've got your RoA and starts tanking stuff.

Well. It's pretty fun for the Poppy player. And pretty funny for their teammates.

I have been increidbly lucky in ranked lately. I finally got one of those trash playes I've been playing against. Lanes yorick against a gp who had a top elo 500 points higher. Before 10 minutes yorick has 26 cs and gp has 73. He then dives the turret and double kills just with his q. We lost that game so hard because the yorick was terrible. Doesn't ask for help, even though he's getting owned for 10 minutes.

Did placement matches on a smurf, guy picks olaf. 10 seconds before end of time he says "no jungle" Our renekton gets smite. Olaf has to go top (I was against it) turns out he can't CS and that he has AP runes on.

after playing about 15 or so games not a single person on my team has won their lane yet, reset is amusing still though. Hopefully it will even out eventually

Why dont people play Leblanc more?

Sure, her and kassadin fill similar roles, but early-midgame leblanc's damage is probably the scariest of any champions, even if you do have a negatron or w/e. Kassadin takes a really long time to get to the point where he can 2 shot squishies, leblanc can do it from level 6.



actually I met a sick good LB player some games ago (ranked soloq). He played support LB with CV and shit. Camped brush bottom basicly and they won their lane hard. With just lucky pick, a couple dorans and soulstealer your on the boat.

soulstealer is probably the most underused support item there is. I mean either they focus the support which is kinda bad since the farmed carries will rape em then, or they dont, so you rack up stacks real fast. everything above 5 stacks is basicly free AP. It's just a little hard to get it but so far it allways payed out on old soraka and still on sona.

Until you start needing Oracles where you're essentially worth 400 extra gold with a pretty little bullseye graphic on your head. What does that extra bit of AP actually do for you anyways?

For all the snowball items you're essentially throwing gold into the trashcan. After you have 4 stacks (win a team fight after you just threw gold into the garbage) you've basically bought a super expensive blasting wand that you can't build into anything.

If it gains more stacks you come out ahead, but you're giving yourself a weaker early or mid game on the chance that it'll snowball into becoming useful. While you can somewhat guarantee stacks on a support character, I'd rather that gold be spent on wards and oracles for map control. The support has a very limited gold pile in the first place.
