Why do people still do q > w for nidalee? Q doesn't deal damage and eats up mana if you don't build AP. Unlike AP Nid, AD Nid is a split pusher rather than a siege monster. Her traps also helps more during the laning phase when you wanna control your river and brush.

If these 1800 players can't win a 1100 player heads up, with all their supposed knowledge and mechanics, he absolutely proved the rating system is a complete joke. That's like high masters vs silver league in sc... hello?

He playes a 1v1 lane with "cheesy" runes and masteries aimed at simply beating someone in a purely 1v1 situation lane.

In a real game, there'd be this thing called jungler who woulda become legendary on his expense. That's why these 1v1s really don't count for shit, all these fancy harass tacs and stuff won't work if there's a threat of a jungler to interfere. Herpa derp level 1 chase past mid river to drop a Q and auto on the enemy and the shaco jungler is suddenly sitting on your ass with red buff and oops what then?

If you're an 1800 player against an 1100 player you should know the matchup, possible cheese and counterplays, you should have far more experience at 1800, it's entirely possible however that you'd never encountered said champ/setup before. And you can't just figure it out on the go because once you get behind, you're behind.
The only thing it proves is not that the rating system is a joke, it's that there is a lot more to rating other than mechanics, and high elo players don't have the best knowledge.

I actually agree with Hotshot in this one ^^ But the main thing that seems incredibly weird to me is SV saying "I'm not comming when you ask because I don't trust your calls"... that sort of thing can't be in a functioning team can it?
I'm a man of my word, and that word is "unreliable".

Maximum energy is better if you can get enough to do something (like an extra shuriken worth on top of your maximum), energy regen doesn't give enough to be more useful than AP runes.

Also hotshot is correct with his thinking, but he's still wrong because the jungler isn't an on call gank. If hotshot says something like, I'm probably going to get dived here, and the jungler wants to keep farming, that's the junglers fault for not going for an easy tower diving kill.

We pretty much doubled in these types of skills in less than 6 months.


Er, not sure why you're calling Poppy's Q an execute?


because it always 1 shots people? :D

and isnt rivens R based on the range away not the health?

thats not entirely true, even 1 more max energy allows you to use a spell sooner from being out of energy. if your combo takes you do 24 energy and u need 30 for a skill, having 1 more starting energy will take you to 25 instead, and allow you to attack again sooner

Riven's R works on missing health.

Concerning runes, energy regen is great if you get to poke a little before an actual teamfight starts. I like them a lot better than anything for yellows.
currently rooting for myself.

Max level shuriken is 45 energy, and if you get all +energy runes and the energy mastery you can just about afford an extra one. I dunno, doesn't really seem worth it.

No one gets AP yellows so you're really choosing between energy regen yellows and armor yellows. If I'm going mid I'd probably take the regen.

edit: also +max energy goes in the blue and quint slot which is pretty inconvenient while regen goes in the yellow slot
