But would it be possible to plant the idea of taunting into stream D and have it work all the way up to stream A? | ||

Even Veigar has a better animation, and I consider his pretty bad too. Dunno, I got pretty used to after a while. Ditto for Veigar. Annie is really the only one I can think of that can be problematic. :> | ||

You can block PMs but people can still communicate via VoIP, delay is a must I understand the rationale behind it, but I don't necessarily agree with it. I'm of the mind that some people will abuse ghosting, and those people are assholes. That's why I don't put a delay on my stream - because I don't care that much. I know I'm the minority here, but that's my 2 cents. | ||

Something like Tear --> RoA --> RoA (optional) --> Archangel's --> Lich Bane --> Frozen Heart/BV depending on enemy team comp, with Merc Treads somewhere in there. Ryze might be a bit more squishy built this way but the dmg. O_O After all the Ryze changes, it probably will end up being the same standard item build as usual for Ryze with perhaps an RoA added early. | ||

Alright. We're putting the finishing touches on Varus, the Arrow of Retribution and we're currently planning to release him next week outside of our normal update schedule. UPVOTES NAO. Sounds like there wont be a patch and they'll indeed just turn him on to me. | ||

Looks like Riot is doing the smart thing and having 5 games "featured" over the client. You can select one out of the five game, cursor over to see who the players are, before committing to spectate. I didn't recognize any of the players yet but I'll check again when more bigpros log on. Edit: the list of 5 games refreshes rather quickly, seems like once every 10 min | ||

I know I'm the minority here, but that's my 2 cents. Well, but that is completely different. That is you voluntarily accepting the danger of getting ghosted to provide a better streaming experience. Putting something like that officially into the game, without any choice for the players is pretty bad. And given the general lol community, it will be abused to the max. And even if it is would not be abused, you will put a lot of conflict potential into the game. Every time someone guesses something right, they will be accused of ghosting. And don't forget the absurd amount of reports for this that riot will get, additionally to the retarded reports they already get because someone died in a lane, or because someone got caught lategame. I am pretty sure that they don't want to deal with those either. It is not even this, because you won't only have to deal with this by people on the enemy team, but by people on your team, too. I want to play a fair game, without maphack if you want to have it. Sure, it would be nice to watch your friends in realtime, but then, if you want that, just get them to stream their games. Maybe it could work if you had a specific spectator mode where you can only view your friends mapvision, but even then the additional pair of eyes is a pretty large advantage. In general, i would say that the downsides of instant spectating outweight the upsides by far. | ||

You can't prevent it, there's no additional advantage. | ||

kinda dumb if you're watching a friend waiting for them to get out of game. Part of the fun of watching a friend play is taunting them in real time.
