does riot have some sort of IP hax that prevents you from queue dodging and then switching accounts to avoid the wait time penalty now?
I swear it could be done before but now you can't log into chat service for any other account you try.

My problem with getting an aegis as a jungler is that normally I can buy something that benefits the team more (IE an actual full tank item) that just lets me either kill everything or tank everything. The exception being champs that have an absurd amount of built in resists already like shyvana where an aegis is all you really need to bump your resists up to stupid levels.

Like my problem with aegis is that its a good item, but there really isnt a single role that feels good buying it. Support gets shurelias for the movespeed, jungle has better options (and at this point is damn near as gold starved as support), ap and ad carries arent gonna get it. To me, it seems like solo top tanky dps is realistically the best bet since they get the most farm for a class that benefits from aegis directly, but again, there are better options that bring more power for a tp dragon fight (ie damage or direct tank).

So ya. Its a good item. Its just IMO there is no decent option to pick one up outside a few edge cases.

if both top lane and jungle build aegis, they will be gods, because it stacks for user.

Well, when you think about it, they kinda have to be.

eh iunno Aegis seems to be kinda mediocre compared to what WotA and Stark's give. Ironically it's the one that sees the most use.


How does it seem mediocre? WotA/Starks benefit 2 maybe 3 people on your team. Aegis benefits everyone with free Armor/MR.

WotA gives everyone 25% spellvamp which can be used by anyone who spams active abilities which is...everyone. Starks more niche I agree, but the +30 health regen aura by itself is silly; not even mentioning the aspd, lifesteal, and minus armor aura. For comparison, Philo only gives +18 health regen, regrowth is +15.

oh hey my 3k post. Imma high templar now. STORMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

Too lazy to do the math (and I'm not even sure how you'd do it properly) but I'm like 90% sure the Armor/MR you get from Aegis gives the team as a whole more survivability than WotA does.

Not saying that WotA is bad, it's probably better than Aegis. Just that I don't think Aegis is worse than it by a super wide margin. I also think it's probably better than Stark's but again, I'm too lazy to do the math.

too lazy to read up, but the same people are not going to get aegis AND wota unless they're support going for auras
in which case i would rather get aegis so i don't die, ap is better off getting the wota since aegis is cheaper, etc etc

The vast majority of the stats you get from Aegis are only for the holder of the Aegis. Aegis is great, don't get me wrong, but the majority of its cost is purely for the holder. Whereas Starks and WotA have the majority of their cost benefit onto the aura.

Aegis probably, more like definitely , gives the team more survivability than WotA and Starks, but they don't fill the same roles. Aegis is for just buffing your team's defense, while WotA/Starks are more geared towards sustain and offensive capabilities. To put it in perspective, Stark's gives 2/3 of a fully stacked warmog's health regen and a ghostblade's armor penon top of zeal's attack speed and more lifesteal than anything but a fully stacked BT to your whole team.

I love 3v5 wins. My last one I was Jarvan and destroyed 1v2 bot lane and got brutalizer+Atmogs before Ashe got IE. Both mid and top won their lanes. <3 good teammates.

The real plus to wota currently is that there are no spellvamp items that physical casters can get without going slightly crazy. So slapping a wota on your ap carry or support makes someone like graves very happy.

O.e the only way that story could be more disturbing is if locodoco streamed himself fapping to it.........

As for the aura items, it's mainly because defensive stats are overall just better for your team as a whole. Wota and starks are more situational. You whole team can always benefit from more def, but more AS on your support or some spell vamp on an ashe isn't as useful. So those items need to be slightly more cost efficient than aegis already is to make up for the "waste" that often is thrown in.

It'll have Loco's Fap of Approval?
Stark's is insane if you have a heavy physical dps team and it's a really underrated item. It also gives you some sustain if you have a noheal support like janna.
