I think that range is more terror than most people tend to think? Maybe I just get a lot of lucky teams. Honestly? for me 0-1400 was super easy (never actually been at 0 elo, but I did dodge down to ~1100 for kicks). 1400-1520 wasn't too bad. breaking 1600 took fucking forever and was a pain the goddam ass. After that I swung between 1600~1700 for about a couple weeks or so then I stopped playing a little over a month ago due to being out of the country. I peaked at like 1731 so I can't speak for past that. On July 11 2012 15:27 TwoToneTerran wrote: Batman sucks, totally non-viable especially in competitive play. Would much rather play Flash.

Superman is broken as balls, just need to use a ban on Kryptonite. Has flash's mobility but does way more damage and is way tankier. As far as I am concerned Flash isn't even viable. | ||

I was the only one left alive and 3 of the enemy was still up; 2 with very little health. With pro skillz I managed to juke and subsequently snipe/kill the two low health enemies and get away alive. Teammate then said in /all some snarky comment about the other team not being able to find a tree in the jungle. never laughed so hard in my life. i'm bad at telling stories. | ||

Don't feel bad - I laughed. On another node. Zyra looks abselutely awesome, but before everyone screams Poison Ivy, remember that there are other Plant-human characters out there, and Ivy is hardly the first. Ivy is just the most famous (others are; Seraleena from MIB2, elves in a few universes are part plants too, quite a few monsters from Doctor Who are plants too). | ||

 The writing is poorer, and the way it is + the content makes te change look like an appeal to calm Viktor fanboys. "He effortlessly blasted Jayce aside and seized the crystal, incinerating the lab's meager security force as he left for Zaun.", really?"Though their clash left both scientists heavily wounded, Jayce managed a desperate strike at the crystal." => "Hey, they complained that Viktor looked like a pussy, let's just write that it was a hard-fought battle, almost a stalemate but with a lucky strike instead". Well at least they removed the mention of Viktor of all people stealing the work of others. Edit @Chiharu: he also said that it was the base concept that appealed to him, but that other than that it isn't similar iirc. From the sneak peak I now believe that one of her spells plants a seed (been pretty much confirmed anyway) and the others animate it with pets that are controllable for a limited duration. From the seed mechanic and the idea of "combos", and since Morello mentioned a chess-like gameplay (more complex than Anivia, less than Orianna), I'd say having utility on most spells is necessary, so that she can play around it for the combos, zoning and "chess-like" positioning, threatening opponents as they have to account for which spell she could be using in this or that seed. If it's anything like said, I'd love her kit to be calibrated so she doesn't have an obvious spell to max first. Changing the way she can work, and enticing her opponents to determine what she is maxing to react accordingly would be great. | ||

Sadie in Wakfu deploys a seed which doesn't do much bt then each ability you use gets the seed to do something as a result. You know, thats really really funny. Hearing about the 'Plant Mage' + her thorn theme made me think of the Sadida class in the game Dofus, which is the precursor game to Wakfu. Sadida's were pretty strong, their spammable bread and butter nuke skill was 'Bramble' where thorns would shoot out of the ground and smack whatever you were fighting. | ||

Did get one game though where it was 8 bruisers and vlad/apkog. Was fun, fights lasted so long that people had time to respawn and rejoin the fight because almost everybody was building insanely tanky, without too much damage. | ||

Enjoy free wins because your whole team lives 10%+ longer, and you live like 30% longer. Pretty much the only successful opening I've found because it's pretty hard to do anything meaningful 5v5 until you get much tankier as a melee.

HoG is like the shittiest item in the entire planet to rush in aram. Hey you earn like 90 gold per 10 so lets make that 95 gold per 10 ~ Rather go either health + null/cloth or kindlegem | ||

Graves pushes a lot better than any other AD carry except maybe Corki, if you push with abilities Soraka could be worth more than Janna. A mid like Anivia or Viktor is a much more potent pusher than Talon. | ||
