Has anyone had ridiculous amounts of lag since last patch? Literally at every point in time I have at least 300ms spiking to over 1k, while I can play anything else (dota2/sc/bf3) with absolutely no problem.. Really rather frustrating -.-

Not really, but the lag I've been getting is different and more annoying than the lag I'd get before when my internet went poopy

I've been having the same problem as this thread since the patch
http://euw.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=587299

really unbearable, not sure what to do :@


Do you have the Diablo 3 Beta? I realize that's a weird question, but here's what happened to me the other day.

I reinstalled the Diablo 3 Beta because of an error. I forgot to disable P2P transfer in the launcher afterward so I had all sorts of disconnect issues in D3 until I did. I later played LoL and periodically my ping would go crazy and my entire internet would die briefly. The problem was fixed when I restarted my computer.

It's a long shot, but are you playing Diablo 3 before you play LoL without a system restart?


Don't have d3 beta, no I've tried restarting and all that stuff to no avail.

I remember it started on patch day and was like, a spike of ~5 sec a game, but it got more and more frequent and now it's more like a spike of ~5 sec without lag a game TT

Malz isn't to be underestimated either.

Malz is pretty bad right now. I suppose there are a handful of people who don't recognize he can do big damage in ideal scenarios by virtue of not having seen him in awhile, but overall he's just in a really bad place.


Just tried out some free week Malzahar and he seems pretty beastly. Very strong laning phase, nearly guaranteed-kill on ganks, very fast pusher, the best AP at killing towers because of Voidlings. His teamfighting seemed very strong. If you try to full combo the enemy AD carry, of course you'll die, but your CDs are low and your range is long, so you just keep spamming spells until someone dives your or your AD carry, at which point you ult them. Even if they have QSS (do any bruisers buy it?), it's still 1000 magic damage.

What am I missing that makes Malzahar so weak?

his laning is strong but his teamfights are atrocious
his energy management is next to impossible with his new costs
they really gutted him lol

His energy management has always been impossible once he leaves the lane. He still has the shittiest method for restoring energy of all the energy champions.

Malzahar has always and will always do a million damages and with blue buff is one of the best pokes in the game, the problem is he has no innate escape move on top of his ulti being WW style double surpress minus the tankiness/sustain that WW has, if you can land it in a safe place then it's fine but with how much CC and gap closing abilities in the game now using his ulti paints a massive target on his head.

Its not impossible, you just actually have to manage it and not spam everything. Anyone who says he has atrocious teamfighting is just flat out wrong. In a big teamfight you just throw out a dagger, taunt, then save enough energy for second taunt. He does good damage even without spamming Q, noobs just mash the keyboard and dont save for the taunts, which are just insane in big fight.
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.

I feel like in teamfights you really shouldn't be using Vorpal Blade, and use Feint very sparingly. Just split push all day -> ult your carry when a fight starts -> dash on to everyone, auto attack until dash is off CD, dash again, etc. When you have spare energy it's ok to Vorpal your carry's target or use Feint to absorb damage/get more Ki Strikes, but really, your job is to taunt, and that is the absolute priority for energy usage.

I'm guessing Rincent wants to make full use of his ultimate so he doesn't build attack speed, and he knows that if he's attacking enough people, the lifesteal will allow him to duel a bruiser.

i dont see how his team fights can possibly be bad. look at rammus, single target taunt, hard to land ae slow, defence steroid, and moderate ae damage. imo atleast he has godly teamfights, flash ball onto the carry, taunt and let them kill themselves shooting you.

shen doesnt have the trolly damage reflect but he does have the healing effects, his taunt is ae and he can sheild his carry. on paper his teamfight is just as godly, just because you cant spam his abilities on cd doesnt mean he isnt doing plenty.

whats so bad about him?

no, i'm not flat out wrong
i'm definitely a better shen player than you and his teamfighting is bad, even at the highest levels. see:
[image loading] from the loci awesomeness thread where our lee sin was down 0-3, we were down in kills the entire game (including the end), then we started teamfighting and shen + shaco did absolutely jack-all for the duration of their fights

Before the complaint with shen was you needed to make decisions on which high energy skill to use and he had only 1 real way of restoring energy via dash?
