If your [Stream] thread was moved to the general TL Stream subforum (aka SC stream land), find your thread and PM it to me and I'll move it back to LoL territory. I can argue with staff that moving a non-SC thread into a SC subforum is just asking for that thread to get buried.

I have admin approval. I'll be moving LoL streams back to the subforum. Stream name will be based on Summoner name.

She's still as viable as ever.


Considering that she used to be the unquestioned #1 champ in the game(immediately after first rework) I'm going to go ahead and say no, she's not anywhere close to 'as viable as ever.' Even if you are of the (wrong) view that she is a 'strong' carry right now, 'as viable as ever' implies she is currently at a state that matches her best, which is certainly untrue.

Of course I could've just laughed and pointed out how she's really not in a good place right now, but that's less fun.

I think she's decent, I play as support dps... She has very good aoe dps... Obviously there are better picks, but I wouldn't necessarily say she's not viable.

You should try her top. A 1k8 friend of mine has an 85% win ratio with her atm, she's kind of a ranged tryndamere. It's funny.

Every champion in the game is viable in solo queue

Some are just more viable than others.

I don't deny this fact, but I would put her somewhere in hte middle of the list in terms of viability. Just average in every way.

though I wish they would add some more clutchness to her heal, similar to soraka's heal that gives a shit ton of armor, or like nidalee's that increases attack speed.

increased movement speed isn't at all significant, with that heal.

I like to use her heal in conjunction with her nuke and ult when diving some one at level six.

I've gotten so many pentakills with kayle, but I've also been owned really hard while using her. If the enemy team underestimates you, and doesn't burst you down, then you fucking RAPE everything, but if they burst you down, not even that 2.5sec invincibility is gunna do shit.

Why are the hybrid runes listed as "Increase Armor Penetration by 1.00% and Magic Penetration by .57%"

Are they actually percentage penetration or is this just a typo?

I don't understand what Ezreal have with true damage champions these days.
First Irelia, then Vayne, and now Ninetail fox..



Well, on the bright side, at least Ahri doesn't even really have a passive. I mean, every 10 spells she gets 35% spell vamp? That won't even help out in laning and unless she has really low cool downs it probably won't help much outside of laning.

Plus, her true damage is on the return trip of her Q so I'm gonna assume it'll be pretty easy to dodge like how Sivir's boomerang blade does more damage on the return trip but it's no big deal 'cause it should never hit you. Although if her Q has a really fast travel time then I could see the true damage being a problem.

I just hope she isn't too assassin-y. People will inevitably bitch about her until she gets nerfed just like every other assassin.

I jungled her on a whim the other day. She's surprisingly effective.

Edit: Also, 1k8 is the weirdest notation for 1800 Elo.

Hmm I wanna try it now... It should be fairly effective. Decent light CC (dat slow), Aoe dmg (great for clearing out camps), a Heal.

I really want to try this, maybe tonight....

I think you misworded that, Sivir's Q doesn't do more damage while returning.

Every 9 charges, and her spells can each build multiple charges (max 3). The Q orb can hit multiple targets, the W "lock ons" are going to hit the nearest 3, and her ultimate also damages 3 and can be cast 3 times itself.

Yeah, I'm retarded. My fault. Still, I don't think Ahri's Q doing true damage will be too big of a deal unless it has crazy fast travel time. Should be easy to dodge since you'll know exactly where it's going to travel.

Hmm, I misread it then. I'm just being all kinds of stupid today. It might be decent in lane and team fights then but it still seems like a worse version of Morgana passive.
