whichever champ you play the most, is the best champ to carry with
i will win 0 games with ahri, froggen can beat fnatic single-handedly with ahri
i will win 0 games with caitlyn, my teammate treebeard got to 2.1k playing her

Question will be how it scales off movespeed. As in if it takes the raw number into account (e.g. 5% of 10000 movespeed) or if it somehow factors in the DR. It seems like the first.
The number the game shows you is your movespeed after DR is applied, which is why I think it makes more sense that it uses that number. It makes no sense for it to use "raw" movespeed when there's not actually a way in the game for someone to see the raw movespeed number.

So I've been doing the math and I've scientifically calculated that the most irritating thing a streamer can do is constantly check their irc.

i agree 100%, nothing more annoying than watching someone, in a tournament game, in the middle of their lane nonetheless, tab out to see if their viewers are complimenting them -____-

Tournies, yes.
Solo q with shake or Gbob, no.

If I didn't see Shakedrizzle checking his IRC every time he dies/backs, I'd have to ask if he got a second monitor..

every time you die isn't so bad
it's when it's like:
>irc for the first 30s of the game, destroying team's chance of early-game fight
>walk to lane, tab in to irc despite nothing happening in the game
>get a few creeps, back off a bit, tab in to irc
>push lane, irc
> start moving to another lane for a gank, irc while in transit
like how narcissistic

Tristana is good for pubstomping if you have good coordination with your lane partner and know when you should engage-- I don't really think she's too great solo q though :x Ashe/cait are much safer picks, once you learn when to use ashe arrow you can singlehandedly win lots of fights just by catching people out of position if your teammates aren't retards. Cait just dominates lane, and if you snowball well enough off that you can destroy with here even if she doesn't scale as well as other ADs do.
If you're interested in really learning a character, though, I'd suggest graves or kogmaw. Once you know how to fight with graves you can do amazing things all game long, and kog's damage output is insane once you learn how to survive in lane and when you're allowed to fight.

Or it's to see if the stream is working/if people have any questions. I guess communicating with viewers is bad l0l.

OK argument with some lol friends.
''Wriggles/zerks is the cheapest item because the combine cost is 150g so if you have the items they cost 150g.''
I think this is dumb because the component items still count towards the cost and the combine cost is not an item.
|
checking irc is 100% ok.
some viewers, like me, actually think that it's great to communicate with the streamer. maybe we're just a little bit silly XD
what's totally annoying and stopped me from watching wickd's stream ever again is that he was checking his facebook every 30 seconds.

You're not silly, a lot of players actually check irc constantly during their games, they just have more screens.

Yeah, I find it annoying. W/e, I still watch you sometimes, you're cool and you play well and I don't hate your music, but it's like, every time you tab into irc in the middle of lane I open up another stream to see if they're doing something interesting because it's irritating lol.

I think what they mean is, zerkers=movespeed 2 for 150g, mercs =movespeed 2 for 450g. If they mean that it's 150g so it's cheap as an item, just like triforce is like 300g for the combined item so it's expensive, then they dumb.

I know but didn't remember the exact stats, also not sure what 35tenacity costs. 10% attackspeed and movespeed 2 for 150g still hella cheap though.

They should just make Powerball scale off Movespeed already. I've been waiting for that forever.

If you have Boots 1, going to Zerks costs 570 gold. However, 25% ASpd is wortly 650 gold, using Recurve Bow as a baseline. The MS increase is basically free.

Use smartcast and play Ryze. Going solomid is usually the best way to forcefully carry other lanes as you can win your lane and gank for them. Ryze requires no skillshots, does amazing damage and is hard to kill on top of being an excellent tower diver and is rarely banned at low elos.
