your first clear is a bit slow but every gank is almost garen-teed a kill. your damage output is like second to none if your gank partner can stagger their damage to get your proc 3 times. not to mention you've got a full 9 minutes of CC every gank.
ofc, leona can't carry, so you do put the game in your teammates' hands. but it's comforting to know that you can give them a very very sizeable lead early
i wouldn't pick her if the enemy team picks skarner, udyr, or rammus though. since her first run is so slow (at least 30 seconds slower than skarner) you can get fuxxed really hard by a strong counterjungler
I've been considering picking up Leona for jungle. My only concern has been whether or not she'll be good after the remake.

spotlight thoughts:
>volibear's animations, both his movements and attacks, are really, really, really lackluster. i hope that was a pre-finished product we saw
>his portrait on the minimap (besides being a square instead of a circle!) was also terrible
>what's the deal with the minimap turrets being red and green now? is that a spectator mode thing? or is that a new change
>lol, why play volibear when singed is in the game? he's like an exact clone of singed except instead of doing infinite aoe damage, he does no damage whatsoever. that fight with shyvanna? most boring thing i've ever seen including two melee minions fighting each other to death
really not impressed with this one, unlike the last few champs which have wowed me. now, watch me eat my words when he's OP as fuck. but i doubt it.

if you want to check my profile you can see my masteries (21/9/0) and runes (idr)
you're a much better theorycrafter than i am, though, so i'm sure you could optimize it better
route currently is big wolf (or all wolves if i can get some dps and cooperation from teammates) -> blue -> check for gank -> wraiths -> wraiths probably stolen so check for gank again -> golems -> red -> lanes are too pushed, can't gank -> wolves -> wraiths -> golems -> cover a lane to hit 6 -> GANKING FURY OF UNSTOPPABLENESS
i've been alternating item builds from
regrowth + 1 -> early philo -> early hog -> boots 2 -> wriggle's (pretty much the way i play jarvan, she's very similar in a lot of ways) -> tanky
and cloth + 5 -> early wriggles -> philo -> tanky
can't decide which is better. second 1 is safer, first 1 snowballs harder if you can manage a good gank early. should probably expect the second one more often

is that... a new warwick skin? or a 4th volibear?
|
hmm
i'm assuming pirate got new splash to go with new model/animations?
so then that's the new spooky pirate too
that must be the new tempest janna, it's too similar not to be
ezreal looks a lot like tristana now...
volibear skins are BORING
hyena warwick > nightmares inc

This supposed to be Lux? The background is kinda Demacia, but she looks not Luxy.
I guess the skin will be CCCP Lux

Got the same question, but its too wide to be wolf, so i guess its a bear. But badly drawn, if not supported by lore or skin name.
Edit: hyena ww, that makes sense with that pic.
So you guys say Leona is best at jungle. I guess you are right, but i never jungled before :C Well, we will see, i really, really like her

She's not good as a solo, but she can't really get to where she wants to be, tankiness-wise with zero-farm bot-lane. Jungle is the most sensible place for her to get the farm she wants, and she has a pretty killer gank, both pre- and post-6.

Yeah I think that's the proper assumption. The new model looks amazing as well. If you haven't seen it yet it's at 5 minutes into the Volibear Champion Spotlight

The wand matches Lux's standard one so I think it's safe to assume it's the Imperial Lux skin. The look fits the title, that's for sure.

imperial lux also known as soviet lux also known as riot outs themselves as DAMN REDS
|
That Tristana skin..I..why does it look so darn familiar.
|
Comrade Lux is either the dumbest idea for a skin or the best idea for a skin. I can't decide which.

It's pretty obviously ice themed, isn't it? Blizzard Janna, maybe.
|
The modified gp skins look amazing. Digging the new trist and lux skin as well. The ww skin is meh, and the Volibear skins aren't any different from the default skin. Does the new Akali look completely disproportioned to you guys?

Drunk Saint has got to be the most hilarious shit I have ever seen.

Seems like she would be a much stronger jungle post-remake actually

Picked up Jarvan last week and been playing him alot, and now Jarvan buffs, I am a happy man indeed.

It depends how the new jungle is across the board. She will clear better, but her insane gank potential is wasted if junglers can't gank that often without falling behind because of the faster respawn times.

Saint needs Spirit Visage, Hextech Gunblade, and Smite.
|
Jarvan is now the most OP champion in the game. He can summon 3 Tibbers at once.
wtf was Riot thinking.
