He's amazing at AP but he doesn't go well with SV because of how passive he plays. I think he's starting to realize that he needs to be really aggressive now and he's doing better. If he starts playing as aggressive as like, Reginald, then I don't think CLG will lose many games. SV + an aggressive AP mid has proven to be really fucking scary. By the way, why did Anivia fall out of favor? I remember her nerfs awhile back but they weren't that significant imo. People just got bored with her? I mean, her burst is good. Her teamfight is excellent. Her laning is strong. The only thing I can think of that hurts Anivia is team dependency and some mana issues in lane but at the pro level team dependency shouldn't be as big of a deal. I was a big LoL noob when jiji would always play Anivia so I don't remember why people quit playing her. | ||

He doenst need to be aggressive in lane (he never has had a problem with that aspect, he is a great solo mid player) so much as he needs to be more mobile- poke around and see if he can grab people who are out of position around the lane and both blue buffs. | ||

CLG, as a team, needs to get to blue buffs faster. Saint is amazing about timing that shit and getting to the enemies but his team NEVER FOLLOWS HIM. That is a nightmare in soloqueue but they're bad about it in tournies too. | ||

Its like anyone who says LW is still a great item has brainwashed themselves. Its like saying rabbadons is a good item compared to how it used to be Zhonyas ring. | ||

Well SV has said that jiji does have this problem. He has repeatedly talked about how well he meshes with Reginald because when he ganks he knows he can count on Reginald while he can't always count on jiji to follow up for his ganks. Maybe there is nothing wrong with jiji's playstyle, but at least according to SV it does not work well with his ganks. | ||

I open cloth 5, and I was able to keep up with him.... but once his wither got stronger, i kept losing exchanges. Keep up with him? He should drop below half at lvl1 the first time you attack him and then you just keep trading, there should be no way for him to be even with you by the time his wither is decent and he'll not have unlimited mana either. | ||

Hotshot/Chauster/Doublelift: Man we shouldn't have let saint pick us Soraka this lane is terrible we need to just show him how bad it is once we we can stop picking it. After: Hotshot: I think of all the variables, having Soraka won us that game. And then everyone agreeing with him lol. | ||

They would've won that game regardless of their support pick. The argument was that Soraka isn't a smart support pick against an AoE comp which is what they thought MiG was gonna run. Saint thought Soraka was a good pick against an AoE comp. UGH, Chauster not streaming while he plays legendary Vlad. Sad day. | ||

http://na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=1698545 + Show Spoiler + Originally Posted by Phreak View Post His stats and abilities are not unchanged. While the functionality of Q and W are identical, their numbers are different. For example, his HP per level is going up to compensate for the loss of the old free health passive. As someone who's been playing a ton of Jax internally to make sure he's balanced: 1a. Do not, do not, do not underestimate the power of a jungler with a 700 range leap strike + stun. Pantheon wishes he could jungle gank like Jax. "Do not underestimate the power of 35% crit at full health" proved to be a correct statement. Trust me on this one 1b. His jungle clear speed is really, really fast. Getting that free attack speed from level 1 is a big deal. 2. His damage, cooldown, and scaling values are different such that you get a lot of new gameplay: 2a. For example, if you build pure glass cannon, you're doing to be squishier than before, but have more damage than before. This feeds in from his ultimate giving even more AD/AP, and it comes in from tweaked cooldowns and ratios. 2b. Your sustained itemless DPS is a bit higher, so zero-gold Jax (or pure tank Jax) is stronger than before, both from base ability damage and from base stat increases. 2c. Building some mix of both damage and durability, which is the build I think is most likely (See: Lee Sin, Nocturne, Gangplank) will put you almost exactly where you were before in both damage and durability. 3. A reliable on-demand stun is a big deal. Honestly, Jax is not nerfed. He has more viable build options, the ability to jungle, and just the right amount of power, IMO. If do miss the mark on his power, then we can just buff him. We removed the toxic mechanics so that we can safely buff/nerf him without creating a snowballing nightmare. If he comes out weak, we buff. If he comes out too strong, we nerf. | ||

They are so bad at it, I don't know why they try it they don't look at what works and just do random shit. In scrim, SV opens Regrowth T_T either get cloth 5 or boots 3...... you can get to 4 as fast as Phoenix Udyr doing cloth 5 -_- Damn, why do they build philo..... Ninja Tabi then HoG is #1 build or just keep cloth armor EDIT: Why the fk does Chauster think Vlad is so good, when the only person he can beat is regi, and it's only because Vlad works against Regi's playstyle of aggression. Sure he is strong lategame, but there are so many other APs that are even better like Karth/Ryze/Cassio | ||

To be fair, Rabadon's when it first came out was arguably stronger than ZRing. because the cost-effectiveness was batshit insane. ZRing didn't become cost-effective for the AP till you got 80 outside AP. Rabadon's gave 700 gold extra worth of AP with NO outside AP. With ~80 outside AP (runes, DRings, etc.), you were essentially paying the cost of 2 NLRs and getting almost a 3rd one for free. | ||
