I don't mind those nerfs, apart from the energy cost increase. I am so bad that i already have problems managing my energy in teamfights, and i think that after that patch i will be OOE all the time. | ||

He already admitted he was wrong. Are there any champions that you guys would LOVE to play but just can't get the hang of? For me, it's Riven and Rumble. Both look insanely fun when played, but I just can't make them work. I mean, yeah, I can farm with Riven and 2shot their carries come late game, but I hate not being able to abuse her strong laning phase. Same with Rumble. I don't know what it is, but there's something I don't get about their respective laning phases. | ||

I have issues when the other ad shoves my lane and i'm playing vayne/trist for example. Then my support either tries to auto everything before the turret looks at it or they stand by and do nothing. if you play enough games you will know how many tower hits and autoattacks it takes to kill a creep just by looking at its bar. but in my experience, most solo queue people will mess things up if they are in your lane and "help" you. | ||

But it's not that I don't get how to play him but it's I don't get how to have fun with him. #1 boring champ imo. | ||

He looked like exactly the kind of champ I'd enjoy playing and do well at, but I suck terribly and slowly stopped playing him for that reason. I just tried out Anivia, and I suspect I'll have the same problem there. Also any AD carry. I can't play that role. At all. I just don't have the patience to farm up or something. Rumble is the opposite, I wasn't sure I'd enjoy him, but I'm having a blast, and I dominate lanes and team fights harder than with any other champ I've played. Not sure why, something about his play style just suits me well. | ||

Regarding the tryharding with GP, games were pretty close actually. Ended up 53-51 on the second one or something like that, we lost top really hard, mid too, had two naked inhib at a point and lost one; Bot was won when I killed them some and again, then left my friend to farm while I went and killed stuff (including pushing enemy champs) myself and he splitpushed all day. At one point I wondered "How's he doing? I should really tell him to regroup if he doesn't have fun", then I looked and he was at the enemy inhib turret with a huge wave (#1 map awareness here).  | ||

I sort of already started working on it, took some screenshots, started writing some stuff, but I don't want to make the thread and then realize on of our more accomplished and recognized members had plans on doing so. | ||

I've been playing him a lot lately, been watching various people trying out different stuff on him (mainly Salce and Jiji) and I think I got a pretty good grip on how the champ works and how he's supposed to be played. I'm not the best of players (1525 Elo atm.), but I genuinely enjoy this champ more than anything they released since I actively play this game (Leona release.). I sort of already started working on it, took some screenshots, started writing some stuff, but I don't want to make the thread and then realize on of our more accomplished and recognized members had plans on doing so. Go for it, the champion threads just need a decent start to spark the discussion anyways, 1500 should be more than enough to do that. I have to agree that Ziggs is one of the better releases that I have experienced (also started at Leona release IIRC), fun spells, cool design, a bit on the strong side of balance. Haven't had this much fun in this game for months :3 | ||

I don't know what it is, but there's something I don't get about their respective laning phases. Almost every non-bottom early game dominator. I love to rape faces with Garen + Panth, I have some affinity for those bursty AD casters. But other than that, I fail horribly at AP mid for example. Vs bad players, my standard Annie / Vlad / Lanewick is more than enough, but as soon as I am up vs a competent Cass / Xerath / LeBlanc etc. I'm more or less fucked. Same goes for top vs. Riven / Udyr / Lee Sin etc. Any semi competent player will beat me in lane there since I just lack the experience of solo lanes. I almost exclusively play with friends and end up bottom lane ranged AD. So if it's not a super aggressive kill lane like Ez / Leona or Alistar / Tristana, I'm used to be top farmer in the game no matter what. I think it has something to do with the mentality you adapt to when focusing on a certain role which is why I think that I am probably not aggressive enough for AP mid or solo top (I love a 20 minute farm fest with Nasus however <3). | ||

Especialy when you see comps like protect the kog run i sometimes wonder why it doesnt get countered by Olaf. There is very little that is going to stop him from just charging through your cc line to him. | ||
