70 Armor at level 1 isn't even that uncommon, is it? :D

I'm really losing sympathy for Dignitas at the moment. First the whole scumbag Jatt incident, now scarra revealing how much money TSM supposedly made like it's ANY of his business... They are still my favourite team to watch by far, but I'm not sure if I'd be any sad if they lose an important game at this point.


Where did you got that info that he is talking about TSM how much they recieve.

What's the best way to itemize wukong? Open cloth + hpot/mpot => wriggles? Or do a philo stone opening? From there, then what? I feel like ghostblade would work very well on him for the ARpen and CDR. Normally I'd consider atmogs, but I think that you'd be giving up wukong's strong and abusive early game. Maybe randuins or sunfire instead for defense?

I go Cloth/5 pots, Wriggles, Sheen, then Atmogs. Finish up Triforce and go from there.

You can use words, if you go 7-0 your team usually does whatever you say. Duo q with someone and have them follow what you say. People are like sheep, if only you tell them to go to baron they will be like fuck you but if you just ping it and start walking over and have your buddy do the same the rest of the team will trickle in. Just don't try ordering someone around when you're negative or people will laugh at you.

why are you being so negative? It doesn't HAVE to matter, some games are just unwinnable sure, but in many cases it can make a difference enough for your team to win.

And I have won games where I go 0-10! \o/
Like I am a bad player and stuff but I can tell when someone is good or bad at this game. I can tell when a call is good or bad sometimes, I am just incapable of making good calls and good decisions on the spot myself because I'm retarded and I think very slowly. I can say that pretty much all of my friends who complain about their elo and have played 50+ games are at the elo they belong at - I've played games at every elo from 1k to 2k (super high/low elo games not on my account duh) but I only hear about the games they lose and not the games they stomped and got 20 min surrender. When they get better, their elo goes up. Weird how it works, eh?

From my experience, buying a few extra wards, using my starcraft skill to watch minimap and babysit my team as a support, and spamming pings usually gets people to listen far better than telling them. Generally if you tell people with text to go dragon after killing the AD bot and cv'ing the jungler on the wrong side of the map, half will come. If you ping dragon half a dozen times, they'll all come.

I agree for the most part. There are games where I play terribly, and then games I dominate in. But I was at 1560 at one point, and should have gone higher if not for a streak of trolls that brought me to 1415. I know I'm better than most people at my elo. I do have a bad habit of tilting though, which will often cause me to lose some games.

Galio doesn't fit into the meta game too well.

Tanky ADs is meta game. Thats usually someone like Nasus Udyr or Irelia top and then the jungler will be tanky as well (Udyr Trundle Lee Sin etc.) Galio can go mid to take the roll of your caster, but thats not that good of an idea imo. He has nice skills, but his damage output isn't enough.

His passive won't really help in either in the long run. If you have 3 ADs caster and support, you need to stress armor more than MR, which means less AP.

This is so false -.-

Galio does just fine top lane. He's a phenomenal farmer and can hold his lane against almost anyone. Just because the other team is AD heavy doesn't mean you can't pick Galio. It just means you wont be taking advantage of your passive, which is okay, because all you need to do well as Galio is to land ur ult.

If you watched any tournaments in the last couple months you'd know galio is a very, very strong pick and was banned multiple times.

Try playing Galio with Amumu + Nunu

or fiddle, probably fiddle.

Or janna. The joys of soloq.

That team too AoE Magic heavy, if the enemy survives with even 10% health you won't actually kill any of them. Throw in Wukong for imbalanced AoE ult with some actual single target ability.


If they survive with 10% hp then get towers dragons barons and nexuseses.

No see because you don't survive.


I don't really know if I believe that in the slightest. If We knock them down to 10% life it takes an extreme amount of discipline to not immediately flee in solo queue (considering we should be at almost full health after this because WotA) and all of those champions have some decent damage dealing abilities outside their ult (barring mummy, but he still does % health damage) and decent CC (fear, slow, stun).

If we're talking solo queue, getting people to pick what YOU want them to pick is basically next to impossible. People will pick what they feel like playing, and somebody they don't know who might be terrible isn't going to make them change their mind.

In arranged stuff like Galio/Nunu or Galio/Fiddle is situationally OK, depending on how hard your opponent counterpicks it when you reveal one or both picks (realistically that means getting Galio early, because he's high value, and trying to sneak Fiddle or Nunu last-pick). It's obviously strong when executed well, but a very disciplined Janna player for example can make your execution very difficult.
