They're still pickable in normals. Not sure about premade 5 ranked. | ||

Edit: For banning, can I somehow see if the enemy team owns a free champ or not? | ||

She has a very limited ability to help her team, since about the most you can hope for in a team fight is to land a snare on a carry who is derping way out in front. Her shield is OK if you can actually hit multiple targets or multiple bounces and prevent damage with it, but that's really all she has. You see her get played at very levels of play, even by "top" players, but she's always incredibly underwhelming. Morg can be situationally good against a laner like Taric just to deny 80% of his usefulness. My gut feeling is that Lux is very underrated and not played to her full potential in top tier play. I personally haven't touched Lux in months and I'm not near pro level of play, but her kit is amongst the best in terms of utility and teamfight control. If I had access to LoL now I would spam games and try defensive CDR support Lux with focus on catching the right snare and positioning of the slow in teamfights. I'd probably aim towards Shurelya's and Locket on her. On paper, she seems good with poke comps and probably works well with Varus botlane, playing passively unless an opening arises. Edit: The main reason I have a feeling that Lux is underrated is because of her double snare. Disabling the movement of two champions in a 5v5 teamfight can be game-changing. Her positional play with her slow is also very strong, and her ability to shield the entire team before entering into a teamfight is great as well of course. | ||

Is there a way to repatch the game, not just run the repair? I've been having a problem since this most recent patch and I really don't want to do a full redownload/install, so if there's a way to roll it back and redownload the patch then repatch it, I'd like to try that first. | ||

Although to be fair, their Alistar was chasing a useless Twitch instead of CCing Draven... | ||

Darius is serious and what not, and all of his abilities are functional and what not. Draven is designed to be a flashy showman who chases down people and hurls axes at their face, and his kit works with that very, very well. Whether the abilities or lore came first doesn't really matter, I just personally think it works. Art, Gameplay Design and Creative Design all work in parallel to try and ensure the package is cohesive. The weapon-juggling mechanic in particular was developed and refined with Draven's flashy, egotistical, style-obsessed personality in mind. Pretty cool to see you think it's worked out. | ||
