I HATE THAT GUY OMG Lee Sin and Riven are excellent. Both force him to rush armour if he doesn't wish to get killed in a simple engage, at which point you can just out-sustain him easily enough. And as always just getting an early gank is a pretty big deal top, as the lane snowballs so easily on so many champs. | ||

I CAN AGREE WITH YOU ON CAPS ANNOUNCEMENTS THOUGH IT'S ANNOYING, I feel like I can't see anything when it pops up, I'm just waiting for it to cause me to derp into a turret or something. | ||

From experience, Riven can just pull the lane early, shielding the ghouls and out running them (edit or just kill them). Then start harassing at 3 with all your moves. You start to naturally push the lane out by doing this, and should hit 6 a few creeps before him. This is when you dive him. | ||

IDK why they changed it in the first place. Does seeing numbers fly left and right actually make the game better? Make it easier to read? I don't think so. I CAN AGREE WITH YOU ON CAPS ANNOUNCEMENTS THOUGH IT'S ANNOYING, I feel like I can't see anything when it pops up, I'm just waiting for it to cause me to derp into a turret or something. I used to be an MMO player, so I like to see the exact numbers for the damages, but I guess perhaps people who come from Dota think it's retarded and number should, as before, only be visible for crits. I think they should have more specific options for the text, though, like colors, size, the way it fades out, etc; even fonts would be cool. Although you could get it they way you want by modding, I think they'd prefer people didn't mess with their client too much considering they don't have any sort of built in UI mod support. | ||

Olaf does 25% of my hp with his strike, slows me, ignites and im dead. He was a major force until about 35mins in, when we could survive long enough to exhaust him after his ult was down. So is it just health stack to beat him? Ranged champs. Does Riven bea himt Olaf? EW-aa-out could allow to harass him, but I guess it's still dangerous to last hit w/o pushing as she's purely melee. Other than that, Teemo's an asshole, and he's been buffed (he hurts, and from my experience once I can QE him through move quick but once he's got phage he just has to proc it between my Q and when I reach him and he's won unless I ult and all-in him), Swain could be annoying if you can deal with skillshots (same thing: be wary of Olaf ulting through QW and diving you), Vayne is probably excellent against him, as would be Graves (does Olaf's ult prevent the smoke effect?). Generally ranged champs, or champs who can harass/farm from a distance (no, not Galio). On April 19 2012 22:56 jcarlsoniv wrote: Aww I missed it... I do enjoy watching pros fail with Viktor. Mercs, Gravity Augment, Haunting Guise, Abyssal, and he was going for Rabaddon, REQW, against a Kennen. I know he didn't really build AP, but I was shocked how often he'd E wraiths or a full creep wave only to have all minions remain at 10% hp (wouldn't happen w/ Death). He also came far too close or tried diving to get a kill with RQ (notably on an Ashe) and exploding as soon as he got in range. You've got a freakin' 1200 range lazor, why are you ever close enough for Kennen to rush-ult you?  | ||

On that topic, what're folks running on Trondamere these days? AD or arpen? I've always assloads of arpen, armor yellows, and scalin' mres blues. | ||

I understand that for champs with solid AD ratios on spells it can be nice, but I always thought it was pretty proven that early game armor pen is significantly better than AD. And +15 AD late game is probably nothing compared to 25 armor pen. I've seen that A LOT on solo tops even though that lane tends to have opponents stacking armor far earlier than bot lane ADs... | ||

And I think that's ok, to have a champion that's fun but not the best. Hell, I really like playing Ezreal, but if I'm going to a ranked game, I'm putting on my Kog face. Fun is fun, and maybe someone will stumble across a build that makes him good as well. | ||

Like when they first switched up the text and made everything yellow. And then made the scoreboard so rediculously small you couldnt actually read it. Isn't that what the PBE is for though? I would think they get some responses? | ||
