I dunno if someone discussed this, but I noticed that people considered the Kassadin change a nerf. It actually is a buff with a 0.8 AP ratio up from 0.5.
Assuming you don't get zoned out and denied (and that hurts Kassadin really hard anyway as he needs to be able to burst up a carry).
Say you have 200 AP. Before you would just get 100 extra damage on a walk. Now you get 160. 60 damage difference in the AP alone, which will yield overall more damage if you have level 2 Riftwalk (probably will), but with 20 less damage now, it's actually 40 more damage, which is worth 2 stacks before you go below the damage pre-change, then it's nerfed and your mana is going to suffer a lot so it isn't really wise to build up 3+ stacks at that point.
Level 1 Riftwalk will now do more damage than before. So he's more threatening at 6 (not by much I guess, since Rift is usually used to get in range for a Q->E combo) with teleporting.
If you hit lategame and get 400-500 AP, you will be doing much more damage now. At 400 AP, we're talking 320 damage versus the 200 damage you got with the old ratio. That's worth (guess what) 2 stacks before damage falls off. With a full build you'll have somewhere in the range of 500-600 AP depending on items so if it ever reaches that point your damage increase with a Rift will be pretty good before a certain number of stacks (likely won't build them though without blue buff, even then it's not a great idea).
In the end, it's a buff until about 3 stacks, then nerfed at 150+ AP. Then again, who the fuck uses Riftwalk to kill shit except when chasing or when someone is out of position? Doesn't really affect him that much, mostly at level 6.

I feel like we had this conversation before if Veigar is 1 shotting 2 of your people at once it probably means the game has been lost long before or you're buildling dumb items

LoCicero raping as Panth on OddOnes stream right now.

That's hilarious. Apparently TOO sees him as their leader too, wants his head.

earthrune skarner is one of the 5 best skins in the game

TOO against Loci again (on Ryze). Talking about his triple gp5 + gp5 runes on jungle Nunu "we don't want early randuin's or shurelya, we want to keep those items and make money, we are the 1%". I laughed. 
His top is CaptainAmerica's Jax. Teamfight, Jax chases, TOO dies: "America's leaving the 1%". Damn. >>

Jeez Loci elo boosted himself, he was 1900 when he was streaming just a couple weeks ago.

Did the 2nd Q/A with tsm alrdy happen? I had my stream in the BG but watched NASL.
First one wasnt that good though^^

There's a guy arguing with me on Facebook saying Tristana's W is broken, her E should be able to toggle the passive and her R shouldn't knockback. I am at a loss for words. Any suggestions on what to say? The one thing he said that sounded sane was that she should have some AD ratios, it would be nice but I don't think it's necessary for her and would probably just break her.

AD ratios would probably make her midgame a lot less awkward, but if they didn't hit the base values her early game would be retardedly strong, and if they did change the numbers to compensate (which they would) it would take away Tristana's unique power curve (strong early, weak mid, strong late)

If Trist had AD ratios she would be the best AD in the game bar none lol

I think it would just make it more clumsy/cluttered. How would you even toggle it? It's rather unnecessary as well I think. Think about it, how would she make her bullets explode on minute and not explode the next?

When you think about how much easier it will be to lane/not push, toggling sounds great, but I think it's just a part of what makes trist. Players learn how to use it, and the added difficulty and nuances make the champion cooler imo.

Hey guys there a nice little tournament someone is organizing for 1600 elo and below players.(never been above 1700) Seems like no prize but there might be a victorious Ryze, not sure. 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.
