I played -cm a ton and I really enjoyed it. Didn't really ever get troll captains(that private server had a very unforgiving banning system) and it was awesome that the captain could choose a lineup that synergizes with each other and had a plan. Then he went over the basic gameplan and we stuck to it and those games were some of the most enjoyable games I've ever played in games of this genre.

pretty sure he means as a game mode for custom games, aka for tournies, mybe for ranked 5s too. Solo queue wouldn't make any sense tho.
edit: in context that's actually the only thing that makes sense. He's talking about trading and how some teams (TSM) use eve as a placeholder, which cd would avoid.

well in terms of gold efficiency the quints themselves are n ot very impressive
however, in terms of a stat, spellvamp and lifesteal are more useful if you are allowed to consistently hit creeps with the relevant attack / spells and can consistently make use of the healing. in other words, in lanes where you would be dominating either way it would be pretty inefficient as you would not be able to make full use of the healing nor would you desire it over additional damage. likewise, in lanes where you lose hard, you would not want it either imo because you would not be able to hit creeps or the enemy champion in any meaningful way without being punished such that the relative inefficiency of the quints would be greater than the additional damage or mitigation that flat MR / armor or AP / AD would give you
i think kennen probably has the nicest time with them as he is able to apply the spellvamp as he desires on a relatively low CD to creeps or the enemy champion (as it has great range and low CD for his Q at least) and he is generally able to dictate the pace of a lane because his counterharass and stun prevents an enemy from going on him early levels without eating a devestating amount of creep aggro. the nature of the quints themselves would make it such that you prefer a drawn out laning phase with small harass that builds up (and allows you to utilize your quints so that you slowly but surely outsustain your opponent). i think that they are niche enough that they are certainly not a must-buy on any champion at the moment, but for connoisseurs of the champions that may use them, they might be a curious option
I've tried the spellvamp quints on a variety of champions, and indeed kennen but also mordekaiser can make good use of them. For morde it negates a lot of the health cost of your spells (if you hit enough creeps ofcourse), greatly increasing his ability to stay in lane safely with boots+3.

League of Legends #1 Game in Korea PC Cafes

Kind of surprising to see DotA ranking above like, WoW.

CM would still be hard seeing as all 5 people have different unlocks, all they do in ranked atm is show you the total combined pool for the other team.

Korea likes vanilla Warcraft 3 (probably the only area where it's still popular)

that's an interesting way of spelling riot

Do you get every champ/skin for just playing on Korean servers or is it only if you're playing in Korea?

Well the thing is WoW and Aion are the same genre and target the same group of gamers. Given Aion's popularity in Korea, I'd imagine a lot of people who enjoy MMORPG would be playing Aion rather than WoW.

I believe you get all champions unlocked and a 20% IP boost when you play at a Riot Korea Franchised PC cafe.
CLG got custom accounts with everything unlocked

Before people freak out about this, you have to pay to use the cafe.

Holy balls, Lulu so strong.
I lost a trade as MF to an Ashe at level 3. That dun make sense. Then next game I play, again with MF... I dodge Ez skillshot, trade and lost out damage wise.
That Help, Pix! Skill might need some number adjustments. That just not right.

I think it's fine if MF, who outdamages everyone ever at low levels, can get out traded by two champions. What support did you have and why didn't they use any CC or spells?

Just stand behind your creeps so the pix attacks don't hit you.

Eh, i had a Taric first game and a Leona second game. It mostly my fault, I only play MF when I wanna Press W, trolololol and A-move.
Realistically, it is probably perfectly fine if I just bait out Lulu shields and you know... coordinate with my lane partner and stuff.

I got this site to work but it doesn't seem to have rune pages which is unfortunate.
