Moreover, it's a lot easier to dodge Q than it is to land it. You shouldn't base the strength of the lane on the assumption that players will be bad. Judicious use of spellshield will keep Sivir with a lot of mana, as every support's spells can easily be shielded except Soraka (who does no meaningful damage anyway).

Fighting over golems has been standing for like 3 months or so. Maybe not on US though, because phreak was going on how lucky it was that their bot lane randomly showed up bot when they were doing golems lollolo.

The problem with fighting over it is the times where someone will be standing there waiting to kill you rather than trying to do it. You have to ward before entering, which puts you at a disadvantage due to a lot of wasted ward time. You also can't help your jungler with his leash at all.

Here's my question:

Why does first blood get bonus gold?

Does it encourage aggressive play because you want to get it...or passive because you dont want to give it up?

Early kills are some of the most influential already because they have the entire game to snowball, why is it necessary to give them artificial importance?
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Encourages cool play liek towerdives because it's fb, it's worth it n shit. Game would be a bit more boring without bonus gold on fb.

Why do people keep insisting playing Kayle support, she's so shit.

A cool support thing to do is to gank a lane lvl 1 with Taric which I've seen done in a few streams. Nobody really calls mias that early and the support could be either top or mid really. The only thing is I fear doing this in the normals that I play in because 10 seconds without a support is enough time for the AD carry to get themselves killed.

Support is fun enough for me though. I enjoy healing and supporting in teamfights as it present its own challenges. Just I hate not being able to talk quickly to your lane partner to fight or disengage. Sometimes with Alistar I will pulverize just to harass when they face check bushes, but then occasionally my partner thinks that means we're committing to fight and one of us ends up dying for no reason.

Correct me if I'm wrong but a team did the taric thing recently in the Kiev IEM. They forced a flash, but were just shy of the kill.


Dignitas did that yes, but Ryze just flashed away.

Didn't 'just flash away'. I'm pretty sure he got ganked very soon afterwards and died because he had no flash. So it was definitely worth it.


The second that bottom lane saw taric was middle they started zoning though. Not worth it imo

Kayle solo top is beastly VS bruisers though. Ranged + slow + heal = infinitly hard to counter.

Because if you shield your ad carry from veigar's full combo+DFG its so satisfying that it makes being completely worthless and losing irrelevant.

She's not THAT bad, certainly not nearly as good as any real support but i'd rather have a kayle than a support volibear

So long as the person playing Kayle doesn't make the mistake of trying to use her heal to heal someone.

(not even kidding; takes waaaaay too much mana. just q-e kite and zone.)

Not to mention TL has been advertised during multiple IEMs and MLGs anyways.

I still have a trauma from when the SC2 crowd overran my beloved TL. I think it's that trauma in me that hates seeing big influxes at once. =D
