Smart-selfcast is probably the worst thing in the game. Just get used to pressing alt + ability and you'll save yourself a lot of headache from not accidentally self-casting something you wanted on someone else.

I'm pretty sure Galio should have no trouble whatsoever against LB since he can just stack MR, potentially get an early veil if he so chooses, push her into tower (she sucks at LH under tower), and has Bulwark to further block any burst.

for me, the alt+ability is really unresponsive atm. it's kinda annoying especially when jungling/playing lee sin

quick tips on galio vs leblanc?


From which side?

If you're Galio you just want to make the lane a farmfest and hardpush creeps into the tower because you farm way better/faster and LB can't last hit at tower unless she uses Q, in which case she can't kill you. You should have a metric-crap-ton of Mres so you shouldn't be able to get bursted down by LB, and you should have enough sustain with Chalice/Bulwark/blue that her killing you shouldn't be possible.

Just ward well, hardpush, and take wraiths all game. If you getting really low just Bulwark yourself and tank minions, perhaps even wraiths. LB can still be scary because she is LB, but I think Galio is almost an ideal counterpick.

If you're LeBlanc it about the same as any other matchup. Farm as best you can, zone and hopefully kill the other mid with your obscene burst then go ganking to extend your early game prowess by champ farming.

Why is Chaox getting BT against such a tanky team? Naut, Gragas, Udyr and Ali? Wouldn't IE be far better?


When the entire enemy team can dive you, do you really think IE is going to help you survive?


This is something i have wondered about aswell. Not sure what the comps were but if your getting hit as ad carry its usual by assassins or bruisers and i dont really think the ~15% lifesteal you will be getting from BT is going to keep you alive any more then the extra damage of IE will.

Isnt it better to be able to kill the bruiser before he gets to you then being able to take 1second longer to die when he does get there.

The BT helps you soak incidental AoE damage and then heal back up a bit when you get movements to kite or have successfully peeled away. You also get it sooner and can get almost BT + Zeal by the time you could get just IE. I'd say the damage difference is pretty negligible in the situations where you're being dove like that, but being able to live 1 second longer might be the difference between dying and getting to flash/blink away or having a teammate CC them while you run.

Obviously it depends how much faster you kill them vs. how much longer it keeps you alive. You can't simplify the item decision down to a 1-line blurb like that when it depends on the other 9 heroes in the game. Realistically you can't do the analysis of which is better thoroughly in that scenario so it comes down to gut feeling and intuition based on your prior theorycraft and experience in similar situations.

Regi playing EU style Kennen and going Abyssal after Wota. Odd with such a physical damage focused team.

Chaox needs to have a rule before every single game when he's calling the team comp.

"Do we need to initiate or can we poke/split."
"How are we initiating."
"What is our plan when besieging a tower."

TSM ALWAYS looks so lost every time basic scenario's occur.
Only the weak link is strong enough to break the chain.

re-bind self casts to shift+? i find shift much less awkward for quick self casts than alt and then put regular casting on alt+ if i want to slowly check the range of something

Ugh. So painful to watch.

TSM keep making bad aggressive calls all tournament and get heavily punished for them.
Just trying to force fights/towers where they aren't that much stronger and without a full team.

Sadly nobody's going to remember any of Xpecial's great Janna ults and just that one that saved Na'vi from Regi's Kennen ult :/
That Nunu was doing work peeling for Kog'maw - I'm amazed the knew just how long they could kite Dyrus' fed Olaf through his ult.

Thats true, Xpecial is great with his Janna ults but they had to know during selection that Kennen and Janna occasionally fuck each other. It doesn't matter how well you co-ordinate, eventually a crisis will come up and Janna will mess over Kennen, they could have picked differently.

hehe as usual supports are not getting any recognition ^^ as a relatively newbie to lol I kinda feel that Xpecial is the secret MVP of TSM, especially after knowing that he's outplayed dyrus toplane or Regi in mid. Correct me if I am wrong.

Question: Why is it that for some people in friendlist their Elo and win/losses are shown and for some it isn't?

Either they are unranked, or their Elo is below 1250.

xerath is pretty good guys

I think so too

Can't tell if sarcastic, but yes, I agree. His burst combo requires a little more than say, Vik/Annie or any of the other massive burst level 6 combos from APs, but I believe his does the most damage?

His poke is alright too, it's just having to root yourself for the same range as Ziggs level insane poke kinda sucks.

Edit: Level 6 Xerath = 600 + 3.1*AP burst if you hit all your spells.
Level 6 Ahri (Assuming max Q first) = 620 + 2.66*AP if you hit everything on the same target.
Level 6 Annie = not even close. Even with Tibbers AoE and attack damage.
Level 6 Viktor = 740 + 3.65*AP if your storm stays on target for full duration. Not unreasonable.

Hmm....gonna go through the rest of these but I think Viktor may win the level 6 burst combo. (I'm not going to include Cassiopeia because she is always hands down going to come up #1 if you can Hit R-->Q/W--> E spam for a few secs. Also won't include Ryze because he doesn't really have a 'burst,' per se.)

For most of these I am assuming level 3 of commonly maxed skill (ie Ziggs - bouncing Bomb, Annie - Disintegrate, etc) and 1 point in every other skill.

Level 6 Ziggs = 685 + 3.4*AP however, this is assuming the champion in question is sitting in the middle of your giant bomb explosion AND runs over every single mine you drop, so in reality this will be lower (both AP multiplier and damage).
Level 6 Vlad = 510 + 1.75*AP assuming you get 4 Tides of Blood stacks and sit on them for whole pool duration.
Level 6 Gragas = 465 + 2.4*AP (and a little bit of damage from AD)


Level 6 Brand = 806+ 3.45*AP + Blaze damage (Assuming of course that you hit Pillar after Conflag and you miraculously have one enemy minion to bounce Pyroclasm off of to hit enemy champ 3 times. In reality, much lower.)
Level 6 Veigar = 540 + 2.8*AP + 0.8 enemy*AP
Level 6 Kennen = 545 + 3.1*AP + a couple autos I guess for stun combo/W passive. This is a really good one because it's essentially all guaranteed damage with the stun so in reality the number is somewhere above 600.
Level 6 Malzahar = 530 + 2.9*AP + whatever damage done from Nullzone. (Assuming E max, I guess) Also a huge combo.
Level 6 Morgana = 705 + 3.3*AP (assuming W max) another huge one.


Not 100% sure why I did this but it's still interesting to see. Anyone I forgot?


You forgot Anivia. Q_Q.

Assuming you land the combo properly (R+E+Q+E or E then immediate R+Q+E and you get the double hit on Q) and you have 3 levels in E 1 in W 1 in Q and 1 in R (80+.25*AP in DoT)+ (230+1*AP)+ (120+1*AP) + (230+1*AP) = 580 +3*AP + DoT from Ult or x*(80+.25*AP) where x is the number of seconds person stands in Ult.

Although the answer is always Karthus. Who still wins hands down because his ult alone does 5*(250+.6*AP) or 1250 + 3*AP.

Nunu would be a close second unless the enemy team was all dumb enough to stand in his ult then he wins. (625+2.5*AP)*x where x is the # of idiots standing in it and assuming full channel.

Unless you are going for single target nuke then, well Karthus is still in there because of Q spam + E DoT. 250+.6*AP from ult + (120 or 160 +.6*AP)*x (where x is number of Qs landed single target) + (50 or 70 +.25*AP)*y where y is # of seconds someone stood in it.

Abstracts, the too long didn't read of the educated world.

I dont think its just TSM that does this but a lot of teams fail at this step even on a tournament level. You need to know and plan these things and all the often its more a case of "what you wanne go" then "what team are we taking"
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

Lux's burst combo is 150+60+300+210 -> 720+2.05/AP with three passive procs (two AAs). And is reasonable to achieve with practice.
