LoL must have the worst player base out there, I was thinking. I'm playing at 1600 which is what top 10.000? And I see people that lack absolute basic motorskills and decision making. The top 10.000 CS players, or top 10.000 WoW players even is 500 times better than these guys, not to talk about top 10.000 starcraft players. I wonder why.

It´s like Rylais, good but ultimately luxury. On Singed sustainability more likely would come from FoN since that makes you also run faster. Take a look at the Team, if there are others that could use it it´s great but not really necessary for singed himself.

Law of Averages plus being a teamgame.

When 11 million people play your game there will be a lot of really bad people.
When 4 people can carry 1 utterly bad person to a win he gets higher then he should be.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

I didn't say that rylai's is bad on singed, I get it on him basically every game that I need the slow to get away from team fights late game. I was just a bit stunned that anyone could say that it was better than ROA (I may have overreacted). Personally I don't like getting it too early because it discourages people from chasing you and a FoN or frozen heart makes you tankier.



If you buy RoA you're delaying your rylais by 1710 gold. That's not ideal cus you want it for team fight trolling.

But that should even out over 100s of games. I see people with 300+ games at 1600 that can't last hit, never ward, always run into super obvious traps ect. I don't know but I could never ever see a Master/Diamond (how many master players in the world are there?) do shit like that. I wouldn't even say a Silver League player would do those kinds of things, yet they manage to stay over 100's of games, that must mean that the rest of that 1600's are just as bad on average. Also the more players you have logicly your top 10.000 should be better than those with less players.

An observation on my part, after moving from EU East to EU West my conclusion is that EU West has much more trolls with people not following ranked customs and also more importantly people at a specific ELO are much worse than the EU East counterpart. My estimate would be 150-200 elo worse than a person at the same ELO on EU East. Interesting I think and I really wonder why that is so. Meaning in my case people at 1.8k ELO on West actually would not be much better than 1.6k on East.

There are articles on TL about people that 6 pool and 4 gate to masters. It's completely possible to be at an inflated rating in SC2. Those players don't win tournaments or even look like other players "at their tier", but then again, neither do these inflated LoL players.

Also, everyone has "those" games. Sometimes you just can't help it but you're last hitting for shit or just derping or feeding. You could be fine in 99% of games, but that one game you just can't get out of your own way. For you, it's a super rare mistake. For the other 4 people? You're a terrible feeder at a ridiculously inflated ELO that you don't deserve.

Perspective, I guess. Now, that doesn't explain it all, but I mean, you're sampling very little of these people's gaming career.

Singed's poison is AoE, you don't heal a whole lot from it.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

It just indicates how big the LoL playerbase is.

For reference, the Diamond-or-higher player base is the top 8% of SC2 players, while 1600+ is like top 2% of LoL players.

Secret plan is to pick Singed when you have a WotA carrying champ (aka every AP that doesn't use mana plus a few more).

You do if you constantly hit everyone with it, you know like in teamfights.
On another note, has anyone ever used surge other than just trying it out?

Singed doesn't heal that much off spell vamp. Just your ult gives so much regen that it's better to stack resists/get a fon and just get pure AP if you want damage.

I remember Dyrus going AP singed, pretty sure that WOTA was his 2. or 3. big item (post rod or post d-cap, not sure which one)

Nope. Tried it and hated it. It replaces Rally quite well.

Minor annoyance: why are DoT spells listed as per-second damage, while health regen is always given as per-5? Adds an annoying extra step to calculating net rate of HP loss or equivalent gold value of spellvamp.

Actually, why the hell did Riot feel the need to list regen as per-5 at all? It seems like it's unnecessarily importing a WoW convention without the underlying mechanic that necessitated that convention in WoW in the first place (5-second rule).

It's more efficient to buy resists and cdr for your turtle shield. Vamp relies on being able to hit your target and the motivation for people not focusing you should be that they are doing damage mostly to your completely spammable shield and if they know you rely on sticking to your target to stay alive it's much easier to CC you and scare you out of a fight.

Pheonix scales with AP and does more magic damage than tiger so hextech revovler would be not a completely retarded choice on him but still bad. It's just better to hope a teammate buys WoTA to give you a little extra on top of your insane tankiness already.

Because few (if any) DoT spells last for 5 seconds and do relatively high damage per second, while regen is generally quite low and lasts long (or infinite) periods.
