Haha, my comment was a little tongue-in-cheek.

In reality, you're probably right. M5 would want to learn/practice against Froggen as much as possible, especially in scrims.

I'd ban her until he stopped practicing anivia, a bit like westrice with akali.

Froggen's been on an AP Kog and Ahri kick for awhile. Banning Anivia doesn't do much.

Has anyone heard anything Riot buffing Irelia a bit? Heard Morello talking about how they hit her too hard, which I still agree with.

Dude, guys, leona is seriously the most fun support in this game. Even with zero farm botlane you get to be aggressive, jump on people into the thick of the fight, and initiate all over the place with ultimate.. That and she's #1 for stealing kills from your carry.

I'm not sure what carries you are playing with but usually carries get the kill, especially considering leonas passive.

I don't know if this has been fixed, but on release if Leona's passive was triggered for the kill it went to Leona. My personal favorite moment playing Leona was on release week. I got a triple kill popping improved fortify and dropping the ultimate on 3 people. Those were the days.

I haven't heard anything about it, but I don't really mind at my level. I pretty much just play Irelia, and the nerfs mean no one picks her but me, and it definitely separates good Irelias from greater ones. Her laning pre-9 is still more difficult, but if you can make it to 9 without feeding and farming up it's about the same as it was before.

Even on some of the higher end teams that run leona, leona tends to get kills. At least that's been the case every time I see them run her.

It's always a pain in the ass to balance sustain-oriented laners because it always comes down, very precisely, to the numbers. They can just +/- tweak the numbers on W until they find something that fits I guess.

Here are the numbers on Irelia from PBE.

Damage increased: 56.3 (+3.3 per level), to 59.3 (+3.3 per level).
Health increased: 515 (+85 per level), to 546 (+90 per level).
Health per 5 sec increased: 6.5, to 7.5.

It's to coincide with the release of her newest skin. Buff the champion and sell more skins, it's the Riot way.

Yeah, I feel the same way.

If you don't feed and are able to just last hit at tower/freeze the lane, then you're in good shape and will be a monster mid-late game.

My main problem is that she already got bullied pretty hard by some tops before the nerf (Riven and Olaf are 2 perfect examples) and the idea is that if you can survive that portion of the game, you should be able to start winning against them around 8-11.

Idunno, just my take on it. The nerf took her retarded matchups and made them even harder to play. I felt that maybe if they made her W last a second or 2 longer or if they had hit her restoration by 25% (so I'm bad at math but I believe that is 19.5 hp/strike at lvl 5 W) it would have been a much more reasonable nerf. 50% just seemed WAY too harsh imo.

Yeah, that coupled with the wriggles nerf in the same patch made a lot of people think she was straight unplayable. Her last hitting under tower is still really good, I just wish that they gave the ult back some damage. It just really does not feel like an ultimate. It just clears waves =/ I never actually notice the healing, and the damage is pretty insignificant late-game.

if irelia is unplayable, you guys must think 75% of the champs are unplayable

I don't think she is, it just takes even more effort to play her now.

Between the fact that people realize that you NEED to pretty much shut her down early and her even worse matchups now, its pretty frustrating to play her.

I've been playing her bot lane with Ali. Works pretty well, Irelia goes in and w+auto+q+auto then Ali jumps in with wq. Haven't lost lane vs the standard ad carry support lanes yet, but we have only done it a handful of times.
