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.

You still collide with minions when using ghost+powerball. I used to run ghost back before the nerfs to powerball speed because I didn't know how to use flash correctly.

am i wrong in thinking that removing dodge from udyr's passive means he will be taking ~8% more damage from auto attacks and that this is a fairly huge nerf compared to what you usually see in patch notes barring an obviously overtuned new champ like graves?

Throw an AD champ/bruiser at him?
You do realize kassadin's job is to assassinate the range carry in before the teamfight / during it right? And u suggest to counter him with either the characters he is supposed to counter , or to remove your bruise from the front of the battle leaving your squishes exposed for the slight possibility of him being able to save his ranged carry.

And yes gp is kassadin's hardest match up middle. The fact that u list match up mid as counters to kassadin means u have no clue at all about him / his role or how to play him.

He's saying to put your AD carry or a bruiser to lane against Kassadin. If Kassadin gets shut down in lane then he won't be a threat late game.

If you are really 2200, you would know that
a) The way to shut down kassadin is to break him early game so that he is useless for the whole game. b) The best way to accomplish (a) is to throw a tank or ranged carry at him in lane.
I like how you say not to bother listing matchups when that is, uuh. HOW YOU SHUT HIM DOWN. Thats like saying "how do I counter mundo ult without ignite?"

Congrats, you have now countered Kassadin.
The only variable is if your teammates are smart enough to listen to you when you tell the ranged AD to go mid, but if you really are 2200, I don't think that should be a problem.
Also that Ionic Spark item. Please don't let that on Summoner's Rift. Imagine how much more insane Skarner, Shyvana, and Udyr's clear times would be. Lol. Plus they'd get more health.

First of all if you put an ad carry mid he is gonna be free kill for kassadin and his jungler after level 6 every single time. Not to mention before that. Not to mention that you will have only ad damage , and if u put an ap carry top he is gonna be useless (( and since you dont seem very good at league of legends I will explain you why. ) Mid lane is safer for ap carries , gives them easier access to blue and ganks. Not to mention that top laners stack 120 mr till level 7-9 and u will do zero damage , forced to farm at tower , leaving you with low mana unable to push , unable to kill , losing cs and more easily tower diveable. Which also means that if u put an ad middle and ap top , your jungler is gonna be your bruiser which means he will be a lot less durable than the opposing bruiser since he is gonna be top and have a vast access to farm.
Also any decent kassadin player will just famr at tower with tears/cata/philo 2 of the 3 combo. Yes he will always have less farm than lets say sion or brand or most other mid ap's but he outshines them greatly during the mid game and team fights if a decent player. It doesnt fucking matter who you lane against as long as u dont lose by more than 30-40 cs since your job is to make the enemy ranged ad unable to fight the team battle by smart positioning and q/e combo before the battle leaving him an easy pick up target. Why do i even bother to explain you.

So you're basically telling us that the numerous examples of a team putting talon or cait mid, shitting all over kassadin, and later winning the game is all just flukey baloney.

Low elo detected.
That's why you put the mage at BOT LANE like I said. And give them Soraka so they have infinite mana for farm/harass.
