Heed these two simple warnings. It will help make our GD a better place.

Consider this fair notice to all users. Warning will be dished out this patch.

Thanks.

Did I miss something in the Ziggs patch notes that makes all the AD players go for 3x DBlade + Wriggle's Lantern these days?

There was a time 4-5 months ago where everybody build Wriggle's even though the lane wasn't that hard. Then people stopped that and went for a more team fight oriented build with only 1-2 DBlade and an early BF item rush.

And now we seem to be back to stack 2, mostly 3 DBlade + Wriggle's which I don't really get since it delays your main build a lot, especially when you are not far ahead.

It was a EU trend that crossed over, it's about focusing on being very strong early and mid game rather than maxing out in the late game, ideally you use the early advantages to get ahead to a point where you either end the game or can transition out of it

Yep. Genja played it with success in Kiev. Chaox picked it up. It pretty much snowballed from there.

Did he even get nerfed? I feel like his changes were a combination of nerfs and buffs that made him more rounded.

Rounded as in weaker? I mean, last 2-3 changes were all clear nerfs.

Being able to use Q to run away is a nerf?

You should get ionic spark on voli so people will be confused as to whether you're using your ult :p

Volibear's buffs were pretty meh. Q got a tiny damage buff but no one cares and it doesn't scale. E got a substantial damage buff but no one cares because you level it last and 40 more damage at level 18 is meaningless. By contrast he lost 25% of his scaling on his nuke and about as much base damage on it as he gained elsewhere, so the net effect is simply nerfed scaling and nerfed base damage early game (because you can only level 1 ability at a time). The Q thing gives him better ability to escape a soft gank but IMO it's really not as great as simply killing crap.

To be honest the damage on bite at release was pretty absurd. the nerf to it wasnt totaly undeserved and its still damn good.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

Someone dies to minion on TOO's stream. No champion/turret/assist nothing. Minion kill.

And he's in full form right now. Uses pot to "stay healfy" and decides they should rename pots milk. Everyone in the house screaming as he duels in river and barely survives.

Your doing it wrong.

Jungle voli, according to T_D (ripped shamelessly from SV):

9-21-0, runes optional, either run your WW runes or Udyr runes.

Boots+3, open with q for invade, e for faster jungling. Open red for a fast gank, blue for faster farm. e-q-w-e E>W>Q.

Ganking (his strong point) press q, then flip them over, press e, kill them. If you arent gonna reach with q, press e in range to slow before the flip, catch them, then kill them.

Build: Wriggles, Wits, tanky.

Your welcome.

I don't normally really enjoy watching TheOddOne's stream but it's pretty hilarious to see how afraid he is of losing a 1200 level EU west game.

Btw I remember seeing voli calculations when he first came out. Assuming he sticks to his target and had some attack speed his ult basically added like 2k damage to one target. Bite was OP as fuck and nerf was deserved if even too little.

that was a sarcastic response to the people who think Volibear's changes were straight up nerfs just because you can't auto win the lane with W spam


On an unrelated note, are there any champions for which boots of swiftness are a viable choice?
