I just noticed that the smite mastery doesn't give cd reduction. You can just skip it now as a jungler.

The gold you get for using it increased from 5g to 10g. It's even better now.

Here's a question.....the patch notes weren't really clear. Are the new Masteries and Summoners coming out this week? If so Season 2 must be pretty close....

Afaik, yes new Masteries and Summoners are coming out next patch.

I just hope they have the replay system ready. The complete silence from Riot makes me think that they are just throwing all this stuff out so they can do a "Hey, look, we know you guys want replays, but dont you want all this stuff MORE?" again.

The smite mastery will be equivalent to roughly 1gp10 (since you won't use smite on CD). Probably won't be worth it unless you're going in the def tree anyway

Huh, supposedly they're reworking the jungle so that junglers don't need to take the exp boost mastery. In that case going 9 into the utility tree has become so much better because you're getting swiftness (even though nerfed) and the buff mastery has become better for putting just one point in.

This is pretty cool.

So the other day I played against a really douchey team that all runed straight AD or AP (depending on character) and then were completely dominant in lane with their huge damage output. How exactly do you play against that?

Edit: also Corki buffs, neat!

So he should have said "Very strong mid-game threat" not late-game threat when he did the patch preview. Sion is a fucking huge threat early-midgame, and he doesn't drop off the way say, leblanc does, because late-game he'll still have a million health from CS a rather painful 1-2 combo on not-long CD, and a lichbane to back it up.

Defensive runes.

What you get from them is stronger in a 1v1 than what you can get offensively.

I've been doing phoenix Udyr jungle with Wits end lately and have been getting shit from people that I don't build a wriggles. I try to ignore them but it has happened more than once. The whole thing behind going pheonix and wits end is that phoenix procs more the faster you hit so it makes up for the wriggles 20% chance proc and I get lifesteal and mana steal from using turtle stance anyway.

Another question I had is some guides swear by getting MBR instead of a TF, but other guides say that MBR is a shitty item unless the other team has a chogath stacking warmongs. I have been going MBR but recently have been thinking that TF just brings so much more to the table (movespeed + slow + atkspeed + a decent proc). What does everyone else think?

Yeah I've seen people (Dyrus) have a page against garen that has 40 flat armor and I'm sure he opens up cloth + 5 too. I don't know if you have to go that overboard though.

This is true, but I just don't see him up there with, say, Brand.

Against a competent team, Sion blows once you get to the 5v5 stage. All you need to do to cut him out of the game is to coordinate enough burst to kill his shield, then just kill all of his teammates or instagib him.

Sion's REAL strength is his ability to blow a creepwave, gank somewhere, and make it back in time to blow another creepwave instantly. At the same time, because his shield is very hard to pop in small skirmishes (and most sions time out a gank to minimize that opportunity) his burst is very high when he does it. Basically there is no way to "nerf" what AP sion does because to remove any part of his 2 part combo is to destroy the champ entirely at all stages of the game.

The real counter to it is to be map aware and pick around sion. But low elo players dont know how, and even high elo people refuse to most of the time. So then it becomes easier to just ban him so you dont really have to worry about it.

Well, here's the scenario. Me bot as Graves with a Nunu against a Graves and Teemo. They both went straight AD and AP respectively for Reds, Blues, and Quints. Graves started DBlades and Teemo started Amp Tome.

That alone gave Graves 27.82 AD and Teemo 49.07 AP. Standard AD runes (on me as Graves) give 12.69 Armor (Flat Armor Yellows) and 1.35 MR (Scaling MR Blues). That's not really doing much except letting me sit under my tower and going back when Teemo hits me with 2 auto attacks.

Against a standard enemy page it's fine, but you can't really account for them starting with almost 50 AP at level 1.

If I'm not stupid, doesn't madred's procs restore health and mana too? I thought turtle restores based on all damage done.


I could be confused, but I thought thats why udyr, lee sin, and olaf always tried to smite with their respective life steal buffs up so they could get lots of free health back
