Who would you guys run top and jungle in a poke/disengage comp? I was thinking Nidalee mid, Corki bot with Janna, but no clue who to run in the other two places.

Trundle in da jungle. Pillar is very good disengage when used right.

Classic old-school CLG poke-heal comp was Nidalee, TF, Cait, Trundle, Sona. Koggles also works well.

run Nid top, she is one of the only pokey champs with sustain, there are tons of pokey mids

Tops: Nid, heimer, Urgot

Mids: Ahri, Cass, Brand, Lux, Xerath, Viktor, Zilean, Veig, Ziggs, TF

Bot: Kog,Corki with janna

the jungle is the trickier part, for poking comps what people forget is that you need to have some sort of deterrant for the other team to just fucking go in on you, this means CC. Good jungles:

Maokai: Sapling poke, CC, ult that discourages being initaited on

Mundo: Actually solid poke with Q dealing percentage health, not much CC though

Chogath: huge deterrant to being initiated on, 3 second AOE silence and knockup which is good for poke, and really good for people charging you

When CLG were practicing poke comps, they were doing trundle jungle, ap nid/kog/tf, cait sona bot, and kennen top iirc. In theory you could do AD Kog with AP nid and AP Ken and have all kinds of retarded poke and kite (sona haste/slow, trundle slow, kog slow, nid pounce, ken e), not to mention 2 heals. You just have to be really careful to not get hard engaged on because your team fight is weak.

I don't feel like there are poke options for top other than nid and ken. You probably want to ban out leona and maybe GP.

i second trundle jungle for poke comps. His pillar is so strong for disengages.

In general i would think you would either want really strong kiting ability or just high damage long range skillshots with some Supporting ranged cc and anything that would help with kiting.
Nid and kennen for top.
Ahri would be a really good mid for this in my opinion, tho tf orianna gragas and possibly lux and viktor would seem to be good as well.
Ashe, Ezreal, cait and corki would be good ad carries
janna for her ult/passive/q/w and sona for her ult/e would work for support.
trundle jungle...possibly cho though he would be less reliable.

I've seen CLG use:
Nid/kennen top
Nid/TF/Orianna mid
Trundle jungle
cait/corki/urgot ad
sona and janna support

Anivia is an excellent mid for this too, because of her wall, long-range stun, and ult.

I was wondering, which classes are considered to beat Jax reliably top? I went against him with Yorick for the first time today and while I did fine the first few levels soon after he just started raping me and I couldn't find anything to do about it, something that very rarely happens to me on Yorick. So who do you take when you see a Jax pick for top?


mundo, skarner, warwick, shyvana, teemo, swain, vlad, sion, yorick, irelia, voibear, wukong, xin zhao, garen, panth...
any champ that deals damage through skills or auto-attacks should be fine against jax. he's hard to kill without a hard stun because of his leap, but no way should he be bullying anyone in lane

i think literally the only champ i wouldn't take against him is fiora, maybe trynd. maybe trundle?


Those champs might do well in lane against Jax but I don't think they would all be good picks against him.
jax outscales mundo, skarner, volibear, and xin easily, and I don't think those champs would be able to zone him. Garen and shyvana would have to push him around really hard early because after 6 I think jax can just auto them down. The 25% aoe reduced damage is really strong against those two. The rest would be better choices imo.

Haven't played all those matchups a lot, though, so I could very well be wrong.

I think I remember SV saying recently though that Trundle might not be a necessity for jungle position in a poke comp, but I don't recall him naming any alternatives in particular though.

the last patch at least jax beats the shit out of a lot of melees, it's the guys like kennen or swain or singed that are impossible to catch that are really problematic, and weird edge cases like nasus whose Q goes through your dodge.

Exact note from day 1 of learning to play AD carry: Lulu makes killing things very hard.

I had an ez pinned up against the wall, half health, my ult (vayne) active when I was at like 60% health, and she was able to keep that ez alive for fucking EVER.

Also: bad jannas are VERY bad. And its VERY easy to tell when a bad janna is supporting you. I.E when she is no help WHATSOEVER in above situation.

also, lulu is fucking awesome. i play a lot of support and she feels very natural in a bottom lane pairing with an AD. its interesting that her kit seems to be designed around shutting down the enemy ad, as well as having both an 'oh shit' button and an initiation aid in one spell with her R. i really like a lot of the gameplay choices that are thrust upon you when you pick this champ, and i'm especially enjoying figuring out how to skill her. all of her skills seem so worthwhile to max for different reasons, though i think the hex duration on W will take priority in the end

Wild growth is SO GOOD for baiting people, and so strong in late game team fights, to be able to time an aoe knockup, and turning people into sheep is pretty cool, definitely one of the more fun champs to come out in some time.
Every misfortune is a blessing in disguise.

People just need to use their brain even with blue now. How shocking.


Pre-nerf you could still run oom on Swain in teamfights. Not being able to have ult up on him means you can't tank. It's not an issue of "use brain" his entire teamfight strength relies on his ult.


I think they need to be careful because Swain is a pretty dominant top laner already. I don't like him mid, as I stated in the swain thread, but his top lane vs melees doesn't even require you to use ult all that often. It is just so hard to put down damage on him when he has a 20% slow for 3s on an 8s cooldown (that is at one level in q only), not to mention a 2 second stun that isn't all that hard to hit.


Very likely that whatever Anivia/Swain buffs they give to their ults will just be to compensate for the blue buff nerf. So it'll probably be incredibly minor. Really stupid though how many people were like, "nah it's cool they're still strong." Of course they're both still strong but the blue buff nerf hurt those two champions more than it hurt any other APs so it makes sense that they get some kind of reduced mana cost on their ults to make up for it. Of course, it should definitely be minor but I don't think Riot is going to over due it.

Also I wouldn't mind a Swain fotm. Maybe it'd get more people to play him so that Riot would release a new Swain skin.
