I have been on both ends of it and It's stupid. The honour system doesn't work either, especially when prizes are involved. Kinda like how iccup D tournies would be filled up with B smurf players lol. Never did get past the 2nd round in those >_> | ||

I'm 1500 something elo and would love to find some others here to play with. Let me know if there is any interest, could be fun. http://na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=2357172 Edit: The prizes include RP for top 4 team and triumphant Ryze so its a great opportunity. The seedings is based on average elo so nearer to 1600 elo might be advantageous. 1544 current and interested. It really depends on what time the matches are played tho. I really only am available to play at night (unless I'm at a comp lab at school) and usually couldn't talk. | ||

This new trend of AD ratios and of low ratio supports killed a lot of the creativity in builds IMO. I'm in agreement. I like that most Tops can also Jungle. I'd like to see some more AP Caster types be able to Jungle. Also, they literally just introduced a champ that explicitly is geared towards bruiser/ranged. Most importantly, Pigeonholing supports into being fragile, weak, and Aegis/Shurelies/Ward bots is not helping people want to play that role, and outside of 2000 + ELO it doesn't seem like people want to. | ||

Literally free elo and I'm playing with 2k players. Also I'm crushing enemy junglers in the 1800 even harder than usual. I've lost one of my past 11 games (because of a troll). Did some huge elo inflation happen in the past month? Really it's boggling my mind how poor these people are playing. summer vacation unleashes retards | ||

Always days with streaks of incompetent players and/or tools and then days where you just win everything regardless. | ||

At this point I've convinced myself, without any evidence or facts worth mentioning, that there must be account buying/selling going on. I have no other reasonable explanation for why Faytte and I had a jungle Nocturne earlier today who did not buy Boots 1 until approximately 30 minutes into the game. | ||

*Keeps quiet in the corner with BP* Only difference in solo queue I've noticed is a lot more people are starting to play AD. Which makes my job as an Ezreal main extremely easy. | ||

Try to break your posts into sentences. Though I enjoyed reading this one. | ||

I think taking ghost will really help with that so I will try again soon. Thanks for the replies everyone! I have tried a lot of different iterations of the AD build, I was even one of the guys speaking strongly for it back when everyone was building AP and calling you troll if you built AD (yes that was a thing once). As far as I can tell AD is quite a bit harder to play than AP, but you can do a LOT more damage. The thing Spamhappy did that made Poppy actually viable in competetive play is the Gunblade. I had some good succes with Poppy before this, trying ghostblade builds and FoN builds to solve her two main teamfigting issues (survivability and sticking power), but Gunblade solves this in one neat package. I have been using flash a lot lately instead of ghost (think I'm gonna switch back tho). between your W, phage and later cutlass/gunblade, you have a surprising sticking power. | ||
