About bots, I managed to backdoor up to killing an inhib, but past that I managed to get killed and since we already lost two towers mid well there was no point distracting the AI. ^^' Or does it back sometimes ?

I think it's easier to carry when you have feeders because then you get more money. If you stack pure damage on an AD carry you can just kill everything in two shots and penta no problem.

Completely random question not related to LoL at all (well, maybe a bit):

My current headset (some cheapo Logitech one) is dying and I'm looking into a new one. The only problem is that the current market seems to be dominated by the large "DJ" style ones that cover about 50% of the side of your face, and I hate these (they make my ears really hot and sweaty). Can anyone suggest some good alternatives on the market?

Figured urgot would be one of the better carries to do that on, because once you build manamune, Banshee's veil and Frozen Heart allow you to increase your damage output and tankiness at the same time.

Or you go Manamune, Beserker's Greaves, Sword of the Occult (maxed), 3 Bloodthirsters and proceed to right click everything to deal with Q spam in between. You should be healing for like 400 every shot you take haha. If you go mid, it shouldn't be too difficult to farm a fast Manamune and start charging the Occult on beginner bots since they're so bad.

As fun as Follow the Leader can be, it's also depressing how bad some people are. We were all waiting on a teemo to buy a rabadons for about 10 minutes.

How to pick your best solo queue champ when you're not first pick (innocently):

As soon as the champion select screen appears, call out the champ you want to play and immediately type "brb" in chat. When it's your turn and the timer's down to ~5 sec, "return" to the screen and lock-in your champ, followed by typing "back" in chat.

If for some reason your champion has been banned or picked by someone else prior to your turn, just pick your favorite champion who can fulfill the same role as your original champ.

I would not recommend this if you choose to pick a jungler or a champ who can be hard countered btw. Also, just make sure you're really phenomenal with that champ.

So, I have a question for you guys: How do you build tanky, while still remaining relevant in damage?

I just played a game, as lane GP, where there was no one else who could really build tanky, so I decided to start doing it. I had no clue how, though, so I just ended up finishing the game with warmog's, sheen, mt, frozen mallet, wit's end, and IE, building towards an Atma's. Enemy team was maokai, kass, annie, ali, teemo, if that matters. Luckily at my level, everyone is so bad I can build whatever and still win. :p Went 12-1-19, and we smashed them.

In general, though, what's a good way to build tanky against heavy AP teams, heavy AD teams, and mixed teams? Or do you have to decide and mix items as the game goes on depending how people are doing? What are some of the staple items and later-game builds?

Thanks. :p

Warmog's + atma's for the first two big items is pretty standard. The way you build it though, is up to debate. You can go Giant's belt -> atma's -> complete warmog's, or just straight rush warmog's or start out with the atma's. Not really sure what's better in which situation though. You might also want to get wriggles or sheen or [insert random item] before building either.

Then just fill in with MR heavy items if they're AP heavy, armor if they're AD heavy and a good mix if they're balance.

If you feel tanky enough, feel free to build more damage though.

Edit: To take that game as an example, with loads of health from mallet and warmog's, getting the atma's earlier would probably been better. It's all depending on the game though, just try to analize what would benefit your team the most.

Tankyness if you're dying too quickly, damage if they are able to ignore you and go for the squishies. Finding the right balance is quite tricky.

If you're going to build a warmogs you might as well follow it with Atmas before anything else

Of course you'll have to adapt. Even against a team with heavy physical damage, sometimes you'll want a Frozen Heart because you want CDR along with good chunk of armor. Or Randuins against autoattack-reliant team, or other big armor items depending on needs (Randuin's, thornmail, FH, GA).

Heavy magic damage? Most likely FoN with QSS. Banshee's is good if you can make use of cata in lane or it is useful vs enemies (say, Amumu, Ashe or Blitz without losing it to heroes like Kog).

Mixed is a balance between which enemies you're going to most likely deal with, with what items they have. But Force of Atmogs give you a nice basis.

Also if you go warmogs Atmas' should follow quickly unless you need to cover MR.

Ok, thanks for the replies. There isn't really anywhere to read these kinds of things, that I've found, and I haven't played enough games or watched enough streams to pick it up implicitly.

Thanks. :p
