EPTBasically the mistakes you can make with ryze have a low level of interactivity. There are plenty of them, he requires skill, but they don't have a lot to do with your opponent.

Want to rage about your latest loss? Use the QQ thread. If you whine in GD, you'll get warned. ===== + Show Spoiler + 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. - Neo, Dec. 15 2011, 6:33 KST I have admin approval. I'll be moving LoL streams back to the subforum. Stream name will be based on Summoner name. - Neo 7:07 KST | ||

While someone who opts not to get them and instead get more immediately cost-efficient items can take advantage of that by forcing you into a fight while you're at a disadvantage. In essence they promote the opposite of what soto/mejai's promotes you to do. Believe it or not some teams want to be aggressive Except the other difference is that the cost-inefficiency of gold items are much less than the cost-inefficiency of stack items. Philo is cost efficient as soon as you buy it. HoG is cost inefficient, but not by much and it's very cheap. No one ever buys Avarice or Kage's unless you're a support, in which case the inefficiency isn't an issue or if you're planning on build it into Ghostblade or DFG, which case you're not sitting on Avarice or Kage's for very long at all. SotO and Mejais are inefficient by a pretty large margin and they're both pretty fucking expensive. The upgrade cost of SotO and Mejais are 800~1k while upgrade cost of HoG is 350. | ||

Anyway arguing against GP10s doesn't prove Soto/Mejai is good. This is like arguing for the sake of arguing. | ||

Having snowball/stack items makes you worse immediately in fights. However, with stacks that can be recovered through farming/stalling, you can pull ahead by avoiding fights. Do you not see how silly it is to have items that immediately make you worse at fighting, but REQUIRE you to fight to catch up? You can play around the immediate disadvantage of BT/Mog's/RoA/Gp10 items by stalling/farming. You can't similarly play around the disadvantage of snowball items. I'm not trying to troll you (or anyone here). It is not impossible to play around the disadvantages of snowball items (i.e. buying one then immediately forcing a fight such as at dragon where your opponents mid/bottom still have their gold sitting in the bank and haven't spent it so you are basically in the same situation gold-disadvantage wise but kills/assists you earn in the fight recoup the cost of the item in addition to giving you the gold) but it is much harder to do than playing around the disadvantage of something like a g/10 item. I know you (you as a forum) think I'm just trolling you all with this but if you wanted to you could have completely ignored the topic and let it die but instead you choose to entertain the debate, despite thinking you were falling for "troll-bait". It is something I have played around with and have had success with which is why I wanted to open it up for discussion, and I thank all of you for participating in it ^^ | ||

You're kind of a dick to some of the better players in this forum and you're arguing because you think everybody is telling you you're wrong instead of looking at is as another opinion. Either take the advice or ask better questions. Don't act like a child. Get out of this forum if you're going to act like this. | ||

If that situation ever arose, I would just give up the Dragon, and continue farming. Even if you take a free Dragon, it still doesn't recoup the gold value deficit of buying SotO/Mejai's. That's how far behind the curve SotO and Mejai's are as items. | ||

It is something I have played around with and have had success with which is why I wanted to open it up for discussion, and I thank all of you for participating in it ^^ I mean, the premise is okay. Buy potentially high power items to give yourself Teemo's global taunt on a tank. But the problem is that stack items are just so darn inefficient for so long and are so unreliable that it's just not a good idea for most situations. The comparison to gold items is flawed because gold items aren't nearly as inefficient (philo isn't inefficient at all) and the disadvantage of getting them are much much smaller. They also have a back-up option and build into something, whereas if you have no stacks on your stack items it's 1k+ of worthless crap that you can't do anything with but sell it. EDIT: TOO is so funny. He hates amumu and dat skin so hard lololol | ||
