Anybody got some tips for Nocturne? He's free this week and has always interested me but his Thread hasn't been updated in months... Does he suck now or is he still good?

He is still very good, if you get ahead early go balls deep deeps and carry the heck out of your team. Dan said yesterday on stream he has no idea why there's less nocs around nowadays, he is still very stronk.

Xerath is sooooo reliant on his ult imo. When it's up, he's terrifying. He can healthbar you with a full combo. Getting ganked while his ult is ready is like guaranteed death.

When his ult is down, he's really underwhelming.


most AP mid champions tend to be like that


I'm gonna have to disagree. Most AP mids are still formidable without their ult. I agree with Rhav that unless Xerath's ult is up, I'm really not afraid of him.


then i would have to point out annie, kennen, veigar, morgana (to a slightly lesser extent), brand, fiddlestix, fizz, galio, katarina, malzahar, AP tf, and zilean suffer from similar problems.

That list really overplays itself. I'm more afraid of pretty much all of those heros besides for galio when their ults are down when compared to xerath. When his ult is up, however, he's #1 on my terror list.
The number you have dialed is out of porkchops.

Xerath isnt scary when his ult's down, but that's not really that big a problem considering how well he clears waves at a super long range+low cds with blue. When his ult's down, if he has blue, he can basically just sit at his tower and clear waves all day while being very safe. With blue buff his ult cd is only like 40~ seconds at the lower levels so you're not really even giving up all that much.

Noct is crazy strong right now. wriggle's -> HoG (+ Avarice optional) opening into either ghostblade -> generic tanky stuff or warmog's rush -> atma's. He survived the jungle better than most because Q + his passive fucking murders small camps.

While usually that would be true, this is the internet where people make words up and do as mundo pleases.

so was viktor actually released yet? i have played a dozen games since his release date, i see people talking about him, and yet i haven't seen him picked or banned in a single game nor on stream

also i heard there was a champ called "volibear" in this game that was supposed to be OP upon release, yet i have never seen him in a game either

also has anyone heard of a champion called fizz?


What's your point? Why don't you just play them and laugh at people who underestimate them? It's been like this with almost every champ released - nobody plays them until someone known has balls big enough to spend 30+ games to find how to make a champion super strong


errr

my point was

when mf/xin/kog/whoever were released back in the day, they would always be first pick, first ban, whatever. you'd have to wait like 4 weeks to get to play them in a ranked game unless you got super lucky

with the last 5 or 8 champs or so, i haven't even seen them picked let alone banned in any games. except ahri. basically i think riot just needs to slow down on the champ releases because no one cares about getting another generic bruiser with a slightly different theme or another gimmicky caster imo.
would you ever miss it?

MF and Xin were also extremely overpowered on release. If you check MF she got nerfed like 5 or 6 times after release...I still don't own Xin so I can't really comment on him, but I used to main MF back then.

People don't have 6.3k ip to drop on every hero. MF and Xin were released during a timeframe when people could reliably afford to buy the next hero. We haven't had anything reasonably priced in a looooong time, so unless you're rolling in RP, you probably don't have the IP to be an early adopter.

I think probably the worst OP champ I have ever seen was release lebonkers. Imagine current leblanc, only she did more damage and never ran out of mana. It didnt matter what the rest of the people in the game picked because she would be 3-0 by 5 minutes, then just end the game by 25 (back when a surrender vote was 25 minutes).

Even if you consider them overpowered, they look like Eve when you compare them to release MF.

Meh release MF wasnt that bad IMO. Her q was strong because you used to solo lane ads, and she was really good at that. Her ult was a touch strong, but what they did to it can only be described as murder.

Remember when you used to be able to ult as MF and actually do damage? Now she's like an ezreal with bigger boobs. Only uses ult to clear creep waves.

Xerath is a lot harder to play than press button and right click.
