Helps him tons. Q cost has been ridiculous, even with a philostone it was easy to run out of mana for anything but oranges. It hasn't been a good tool for harassment since the crit mastery was removed, and certainly not after the mana cost was increased. Now he can sit back and passively farm much more effectively (which is about all he can do these days against non-squishes-at least until he gets a sufficient amount of farm).

Would you be maxing Battle cry now? seems like some hefty sustain in the jangle. But maxing Q since it's cd goes down seems pretty good now too

It's not as effective as on Veigar, but I'd say its decent for most AP supports and some junglers since it builds out of a gp5. Plus, it makes you that much more of a threat in a teamfight.

Yeah it's pretty nice on most AP supports as that AP/CDR item you sometimes need (more often in blind pick than draft). I build it if we are missing burst or some guy always dives me instead of the carry, as we can just smack him down fast. In some games I find the new morello's to be better though for an AP/CDR support item as the antiheal active is great if you just have 1 team ignite and that dude sucks balls.
I've built it on Taric, Soraka etc as well as the previosly mentioneds. Just try to plan ahead for it so you don't get CDR boots AND shurelya's before and then land on 40+% CDR, wasting stats.

I was talking about lulu mid, but I have built it bottom on occasion, it's kinda selfish tho.

Meh, I've been having some serious thoughts about DFG. I don't think it's that great tbh, what it does it allows not very good AP's, to be okayish AP's.

Keep maxing Audacious Charge. You get 26 health every third hit for having one point in Battle Cry, and each subsequent point only increases that by a pathetic 6. You'll max Q second so that you hit your QE chaining sweetspot sooner.
In terms of actual jungle effectiveness, he's probably about the same. His first clear feels a little slower but I haven't done extensive testing because the PBE is still 4 people per custom game.

Haha that's a very good way of putting it. An added nuke is never bad though xP
It's definitely a very niche item, with a few champs that it's core on, but it has to compete with a million other AP items for a position in your build which is its main drawback.
I dont' think DFG is inherently bad, it's just that roa/hat/rylai/hourglass/grail/etc etc are all vying for a position in your lineup and DFG is not always the best item.

I don't think anyone needs to rush grail. It's got a nice additional passive on chalice though so maybe I'm wrong and people who get kills and run out of mana like it.

It gives you a bit of everything, and in games where you can't guarantee consistent blue buffs, Grail is a great early (2nd major item?) buy on people like Anivia and Swain.

In my opinion, AUG, Morello and DFG are kind of a family of 3 items.
Morello and DFG build out of Kage's. Morello to me is alright, but I don't find myself using its passive very much-- however, that might be because I suck. DFG gives supports who don't do much damage the ability to do some-- a 25% nuke is not to be underestimated.
On the other hand is AUG. It builds from a FC, which is actually one of my favorite items in the game. This is how its kind of related to Morello's. It gives more mana regen, more AP and some MR. This essentially allows you to beat the other support b/c you can spam more, do more damage and take less than them. However, it doesn't build out of Kage's which means you lose the gp5.
So in the end I rarely build Morello's. When winning I go AUG, when losing I go DFG. AUG lets me snowball a bit, DFG lets me try and make back some of the gold differential and do needed damage.

E: I think it was mentioned here sometimes, does anyone know why certain streams start lagging like mad at the beginning of a game? For the first few minutes, whatever the resolution the sound is kinda fine but the image is a slideshow.
I didn't see if anyone answered your question, but I think I know the answer.
Some streaming programs dynamically adjust your bitrate based on the amount of changes happening on the screen. Basically, the more things that are changing on screen means you use up more bandwidth. Conversely, a more "static" screen means you use much less bitrate. That makes the stream less stressful on your connection and your viewers.
This is what you see with a League player who is sitting in queue for 15-25 minutes. The screen through that period, picks, and loading is relatively static. At least compared to when the game is actually going on. Once the game starts up, the streamer needs to start pushing a ton more bitrate to communicate the changes on screen. The streaming program is slowly ramping things up but it takes a while for things to equalize out between the streamer and the viewers.
Day[9] has this issue with his dailies all the time. He shows a static logo for 15 minutes with music, then his stream lags for a little bit once he starts the daily. He's told his viewers time and again to just give it a minute and it equalizes out.
Besides connection issues that can cause lag, that's the one, mostly unavoidable source of lag that would be almost exclusively at the start of games.

I'm saying the manner in which all the veteran posters challenge things is very deterring to people who seldom post the people who typically receive the ire of the 'TL LoL gods', as you put it, are almost always the ones who belligerently try to defend themselves and essentially treat all criticisms as personal attacks and then try to become martyrs. I for one, find the discussion on this board to be very thought provoking sometimes, and just a generally cool place to hang out. I think the people that I described are pretty far and few between *cough* jazriel *cough*. look at shikyo, his thinking is very out there but his attitude is nothing like jazriel or xizor's so nobody minds. Those kinds of guys are trying to Tell You How It Is or maybe are just trolling outright, but if that isn't your agenda there isn't really a problem. The only guy I think really enjoys just crushing some dude is smash (how dare you tell me how to play xin?!) and I've only seen that like two, maybe three times... in years.
Yeah, but Smash has earned that right!
