It's too good of a popular esport at this time to not have it. It'd be giving away too much potential revenue so I'd consider the tweet just a issue of "don't panic lol fans we are working on it" it brings nothing to the table but it doesn't have to it let's folks know that they do in fact care about having League.
MLG will most likely cave to Riot because in the end it should be the smart choice for them. Having a hugely popular game would help them greatly so they'll be very open and eager to make a deal in the end. It'd be stupid not to. I think MLG needs LoL WAY more than LoL needs MLG at this point, which is why I would be amazed if Riot allowed MLG to run a PPV event with LoL. Why not? Riot could just take $XX% of revenues with no downside risk. It would go against the long term strategy of the company. It would be shooting yourself in the foot.

-.- I average 6 hours of sleep a night and several friends sleep 4-5 hours every weekday... its not straight up bs, it happens with school... maybe 8 hours on weekends... sometimes some naps but not always... its not terribly bad

Malph really cool jungler, and tanks loads of shit late game (well with Irelia, Noc and Graves in their team, I was golden; with them scattering and Janna ulting on me, I was sad). Maokai can do that too, tho, and for the use engage with subsequent burst I've got Naut, too, both of whom have far better ganks early on. Aren't those three junglers redundant? Or is rock still worth it depending on enemy comp'? It felt weird "peeling" with a no-damage tank by still getting in the face of the enemy team instead of looking at who's attacking who.

On topic: What do you do VS Kog'maw when he is immensely fed? As a tank, you would get thornmail and Frozen heart, but playing as a squishy, what items or strategies would you recommend? What do you do against any champ when they're immensely fed lol? Hope their allies suck and beat those guys. Don't let them get that fed.
Obviously what you should do should depend on what champ you're using. I think poppy's pretty sick at just ignoring how fed someone is and just going after them.

Mao and Naut both provide more early control than Malph does in terms of lane pressure, but Malph e remains an autoattacker's bane and a r-e combo can win a game pretty hard.
Each has their place.
Mao is a good early ganker who provides decent enough utility late to make you not want to kill yourself.
I dunno about Naut. I have never seen one actually impress me, but I suppose I can understand why Monty loves him so much- his kit has a lot of cc potential, but something seems off to me about him, even late game. I just feel he scales into clearing too slowly compared to your other options in the support jungle role, and doesnt give you any more benefit throughout the game to make that worthwhile.
Malph gives you the ulti, e, and has decent clears, plenty of natural tank, and I personally love his q.
Your other option for support jungle is Alistar, and IMO he is the best of the 4. His ganks are godly, his ult means you get to take liberties when building him you dont get to take with other jungles, and his clears are pretty good. Snoopeh wreaks face with him. Late game he cant peel quite as well, but his disruption is great.

How could there be possibly any other benefits?
You should get 3 MS quints, any easier jungling from AS can easily be made up for by optimal camp clearing with R and W whihc oddone definitely does'nt have. MS is good all the time, AS is only good when you're attacking, which isn't guaranteed, not to mention MS is harder to come by than AS.

I run 2 ms, 1 ad on ww; 2 ms, 1 as on udyr I thought that was normal
Anyone encountered any hilarious bugs with lulu yet? The obvious yorick one from the videos thread is great. Today I w'd an ulting enemy malphite and he turned into a critter mid-charge. I've also had pix start randomly attacking things both when I was attacking nothing and when I was attacking a different targets. I've had her w do absolutely nothing against a fiora who was able to ult through it lol
MAYBE TAKE AN EXTRA WEEK NEXT TIME RIOT
