This is so true with Leblanc. I just played her and its like i always put 1-2 more spells into a kill than i needed. She does surprisingly good burst. Btw why people say she falls of lategame? I didnt get to lategame with her, but as i see she has nice AP ratios, so why isnt so good?


I dunno why people say she falls off late game either. She can keep a guy silenced for a full 8 seconds when you get your cdr items, maybe they're just telling people that so less people play her, or they've only reached late game vs a LeBlanc who doesn't get fed. Alot of LeBlancs put a priority on farming champions and ignoring minions in the mid game. I can see anybody falling off late game if they don't get fed or any farm.

The problem with late game leblanc as opposed to late game Kass, Akali, and Talon is that all of their cc/damage is instantaneous, and you really dont have to worry about chaining stuff together. It becomes a lot harder to hit a full combo when you are no longer the strongest person in the game.

How is Kass, Akali and Talon's damage instantaneous and leblanc's is not? It takes the same amount of time to face roll the keyboard with all 4 champs.

Kass can combo his 3 spell such that they all hit at exactly the same time. Talon is much the same. Akali takes the longest of the 3, but also has the highest mobility and the ability to use w as a way to survive. And any one of them is capable of switching targets at any time.


LeBlanc is strongest when she can space out her sigils to maximize the silence up time, but you can just dfg-qre and one shot most squishy champs in .2 seconds.

And thats the issue. She isn't completely worthless late game. No one in their right mind can argue that. But she is at her best midgame when she can actually afford to chain her spells properly. Thats why she is said to fall off- the opportunity for her to be at her strongest disappears more and more the later the game goes.

Warmogs, Atmas-->Trinity-->FoN, or like Dorans+HoG+Mercs+Trinity-->Randuins-->FoN If I get really fed. Ulting bot lane with trinity is like 4 free kills every time.

Marks = whatever
Quints armour or magic resist
Seals armour or energy/lvl
Marks flat or scaling mr.
probably 21/9/0 masteries or some weird shit if you want the extra energy.

She has no AoE unlike most other AP carries, she just isn't that good naturally for lategame teamfights because she's a singletarget assasin. And she's super duper squishy and has to get pretty close to nuke somebody.

ok, so this probably isn't what most people do, but I find it hilarious, so this is how I play shen:

26/3/1 (swap armor for mres depending on matchup)
ArPen Marks
Armor Seals
MRes Glyphs (Flat vs. magic damage dealers, Scaling vs. Physical lanes)
Armor/MRes Quints (depening on lane)

ignite/flash or TP/flash or exhaust/flash

Open dblade, boots, or cloth
then get wriggle's
then get phage -> trifroce
then force of atmog's as needed

top lane and cut bitches up.

you could probably drop the flash mastery and the CDR+MPen masteries for veteran's scars, but I'm balls out offensive, sue me.

I haven't tried wriggles shen but I've seen one or two guys get it and it sounds like I'd dump on lane even more. Funny how all the sustain bruisers who beat the shit out of shen are like out of fashion and people with no sustain like riven wukong gp etc are in and get owned.

Her W is AoE, and you can make it a double with R, if you need AoE that much, but i can see why she differs from Brand (who has similar AP ratios and similarly 4 damage skills, but much more AoE potential), though people say Brand loses efficiency lategame too.

If Riven is so strong, why haven't she been used that often in tournament play? Or have I not been watching the right matches?


Because everyone thought she was garbage baucase you don't go for atmog on her.

I'm a bit overdoing it but it felt like that for a while.
Xypherous (his maker) often say he think she's OP as fuck, as he did with Orianna some weeks before she became S class Xin release level.

She's like the most mobile melee character who has cc, and probably the strongest lategame hero of the game. You can hit harder with her than the Old tryn could.

You're not gonna use her w for damage late game cause it's too suicidal. And lb has great ratios...much much better than brands

and on shen, y no one build him ap? D: He has 0.75 ratio on his Q and W, so his Q hits pretty hard with AP. His ulti has a super lolzy 1.5 ap ratio and it's pretty hilarious when you shield your squishy for like 50% of their max hp x]]] Granted, he's supposed to be a tank so full AP makes him damn squishy, but what if you build him Rumble/tanky ap style with like RoA/rylais and shit?

I have been trolling around with jungle shen recently with wriggles. SO SMOOOTH. Can't imagine how it would be in lane.

Well RoA is a waste of gold if you don't have mana. When you only have one damaging ability it just isn't effective to make AP for damage. With his passive it's far more effective to build atmogs since that will give you extra passive damage and tankiness.

From what I've seen, his energy levels don't allow for AP playstyle, if you try to go straight damage, you'll be empty most of the time.

Uhg, some guy was AIMing me about AP on Shen now and I'm still just baffled that anyone is even considering this shit. He has 1 fucking nuke that scales with AP, a self shield that scales with AP and a high CD allied shield that scales with AP... That's a bad bad bad bad bad AP kit. His ratios would have to be fucking absurd for me to want to build AP on him. They were just buffed from terrible to average. AP still sucks on Shen.

From reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/n2bak/jk_pulsefire_ezreal_is_going_to_be_legendary/

Quote:

Hey everyone,

Earlier today one of our Ambassadors mentioned that Pulsefire Ezreal would not be a Legendary skin. Unknown to them were the secret plans of our amazing Skins team, who just recently decided to make some changes to Pulsefire Ezreal … for the better!

We had originally intended to release this skin this month, but during a brainstorming meeting with our artists, we decided that their Pulsefire Ezreal was such a great idea that we should take things a step further and fully develop him as a Legendary skin. However, that means Pulsefire Ezreal needs more time to create than a regular Epic skin.

We know that Ezreal fans have eagerly wanted a skin of legendary quality for some time, and even though he won’t be available for a bit, he will feature new sound effects and voice overs in addition to other goodies. We’re sure he’ll be worth the wait!

Pulsefire Power!

tl;dr: They thought the concept is too cool for it to be a normal skin.

Eh, I'll consider it depending on how cool it is. His original skin is cool, but all the other ones are just recolors, no effect changes or whatever. If it's genuinely awesome lazorz and what not, I'll probably still pick it up.
