Probably. Unless you get really counter picked by something super gay like maybe a ryze or swain you shouldn't have much trouble getting your warmogs. Sometimes I skip bruta, but it depends on how things are going.

Hmm...the server isn't working for me. Anyone else having this issue, or is it just me?

anyone wanna take a guess what the fastest possible jungle clear time is now with full AS + green pot + smite + surge is?

Is Swain that intimidating against melee opponents? Had a Pantheon only farm against me, even using his spear for it, instead of harassing me. Ended up under his turret pushing waves after waves and E'ing him sometimes for kicks (300 damage against no sustain, and if he tries to retaliate Q... but then again, I had double his cs and level 6+ by that time).
Since I always read about super aggressive Panth, I guess he wasn't that good at playing him. Luckily for him he got carried by Graves+Galio.

I think so, dunno how they're supposed to win the lane.
Early game, swain can just E all the time against melees. If you keep CSing, you won't run out of mana anytime soon. If they try to retaliate, you just Q and W and run away, winning the trade 95% of the time.
After ulti and your first trip back, just keep doing the same thing, harrassing him for every single CS with Q + E. If he tries to commit to a fight, you pop everything you have and kite/chase with ulti, they WILL die (if you run ignite atleast).
I'm not a high level player, so the guys I play against are pretty bad most of the time, but I don't see what they could do.
If you're on even terms when you get your ulti (which isn't all that hard, considering how strong swain is with spam E + auto harrass against melee), they will probably not be able to straight up fight you for the rest of the laning phase. The damage + sustain is ridic, especially with E scaling ignites damage.
Swain n1 birdie

Swain pretty much shits on melee characters. That's his job. Laser bird for free damage if they ever come close, and if they want to trade, you snare them and beat them up some more.

Clg skrimming against atlantas team (forgot the name, goose?)
also a new stream http://clgaming.net/live/5181-clg-shoutcasts
not sure what it's about
Hotshot and Elementz swapped roles for this game it seems.
Goose running jungle yi :D

Well the person on that stream is Xelpi so I'm assuming he's going to be providing commentary for the game.
FourCourtJester is trying to provide him tips so the obvious appears correct.
400 people know FourCourtJester's skype now...laugh

Wait, who was the shoutout for?

Just went 14-4-4 with riven. And I haven't played riven since she first came out.
Did they buff her? or did I just get lucky as shit?

Interesting things to note about this scrim between CLG and Goose
- hotshotGG is playing support
- hotshotGG is not running CV
- Goose is running a very strange composition with mostly magic damage
- Goose has jungle Yi
- Goose is running Blitzstar bottom and doesn't have an ad carry (their only ad is Yi)
- Lapaka is jungling for CLG (SV mia)

For those who have ever wondered how good RiotVeigar, Coronarch, Marcou, or JeffJew are at LoL, there is an in-house Riot Tournament on right now. Stream here!

Is it just me or is that stream extremely laggy?

The stream is frozen for me basically. I'm getting audio, but it's skipping almost all the frames.

Didn't hotshot start off as a duo lane player? I seem to remember him bot a lot early on and jiji/Chauster being the solos. Maybe they go back to what worked so well in the beginning? Although times have changed and other teams have gotten much better.

HS has been talking about switching back to suppot for a while, and he ACTUALLY PRACTICES IT in solo q, whereas elementz does... something.
I definitely think there is a better chance of HSGG+jiji working out than Ele+jiji. What remains to be seen is if ele can pick up top lane.
