just wondering, is there a way to hack lol?

yesterday i played a game against a mf/graves bot lane. early on, graves got first blood on me. i was a little confused, because i took ~800 damage (blitz w/ 0-21-9 + shield, runes and a heal). i know that it was a kill lane, but i was sure that i would be able to get to safety in time.

i checked his stats, and he had 112 atk at lvl 2 with a doran's. by subtracting 13.1, we get 99 atk at lvl 1. given base atk of 51 + 15.3 max from runes plus whatever he has from offensive masteries, i don't think such a number is possible.


I don't get what the 13.1 is.


13.1 = 10 +3.1. 10 from Doran's, 3.1 from level increase

Have people been playing AD malz yet after the voidling AI change? I really really want to see if the AI changes are enough to make him a better choice -- just for soloq messing around, not as a serious ad carry replacement.

He already seemed fun before, but erratic voidling targeting made it too hit-and-miss, especially late-game where you can't afford to lose those few seconds of damage output that the other AD carry has over you. I'd think that AD malz could also be a good lane bully if the voidling reliably targets your autoattack target the way it sounds, but I didn't have time to test it yet.



it is better but still the pet has a few seconds here and there of derping around. i played 2 ad malz games this morning. 5-0-6 in one win 25 min surrender, and 1-2-4 in the other which we lost, but we had a first time eve and a laggy ww who was 2-6, eve was 1-7. probably would have lost that no matter what i was playing. overall it is a definite improvement.

for the record i go ad bot, boots x3 start, tear, brutalizer, cdr boots, bt, manamune, lw. soraka best support to team with.

In case anyone is curious about the Kassadin change, it is mainly aimed at Manatank Kassadin, a build almost exclusively found at high level Dominion games. I can't seem to find the exact post, but, RiotNome posted in the Dominion forums about how that was the reason behind it.

Essentially, you built Tear, Frozen Heart, Odyn's and Void Staff as your core items using the ridiculous base damage from his ult to do damage while being tanky. And, the fast recall and huge mobility of Kassadin meant you could recall and do it all again over and over.

The build has been crushing Dominion for a long time and was actually made even stronger with Athene's Unholy Grail which fit perfectly into the build. Giving you CDR to stack up faster, sustaining your manapool for longer and the 12% mana for a kill/assist which works so well with your large manapool.


Good to know they're making balance changes around Dominion now.......

Gotta make that game mode balanced enough so when the pros play their only practice game during MLG it wont be imbalanced!


if they can get rid of something stupid in Dominion without affecting Kassadin's niche in arranged 5v5, then it's a very smart change. riot's balance squad has actually done a very good job in the last six months!


well that's just it, there appears to be differing opinions on this forum as to if it is significant or not. (on SR)

I would agree. As I mainly jungle or top shyvana (when it comes to tanky champs) I'm never hurting for income and the extra 5 every 10 isn't going to help at all. I find Raduins pretty situational as well. The enemy AD carry having a cleaver and/or last whisper would be the main situations I'd even consider it.


Randuins is definitely not situational, it's almost undeniably the go to armor item for bruisers right now. FH not for bruisers, thornmail is garbage so literally anytime you need serious armor as a bruiser (pretty much always) you should be looking at randuins

How is FH not for bruisers? Big armor, CDR (which most bruisers love), and the AS debuff aura for diving AD carries. The only thing not great about it is the mana, but even that is somewhat nice considering most bruisers don't get much mp5 if any.

The only reason I'd see myself not getting it is really if someone else was building one.

While the change may not be huge for SR Kassadin, it is still a change nonetheless and possibly an unwarranted one. I do not like dominion balance coming into SR as it is the only game mode played professionally. They have removed and made unique items for dominion, why can't they do the same with champion changes? This reminds me too much of SC2 where Blizz would balance things for 4v4 but still affect 1v1.

To be honest, the change also makes it a lot more meaningful to shut down Kassadin in lane on SR - if he can't get his RoA or similar at a reasonable time, he's less scary now. It was pretty frustrating to deny a Kass pre-6 but make a single mistake against post-6 Kass and have him be instantly back in the game for it. He's less punishing when he's at 0AP now, but if he's doing well then he'll snowball harder. IMO, that's a fine place to put an assassin.

For some reason I read 2 dorans just cause I always build 2 lol. Anyways it should be 3.1 x 2 since its level 2.

Not true, the base damage has no change at level 6. Getting a RoA late now is not in any way different than before. He's also just as punishing at 0AP, again nothing changed. Unless you mean at level 11 and if he has 0 AP by level 11 I think the game is over anyways.

10 from Doran's plus 3.1 per levelup. i'm sure he factored in the base + 3.1 in his lvl 1 number

There was a hack some time ago (and has supposedly resurfaced recently) that lets you put more than the maximum number of points into a mastery (allowed for stupid shit like 100% summoner cooldown reduction, but it could also be used for a marginally less-obvious +30AD at level 1.)

51+6.2 (3.1/level) +15.3 + 10 is 82.5 - if he used this exploit he would have 112.5 AD. Perhaps this exploit has indeed returned.

Edit: wow, I really just need to re-read the patch notes, and actually pay attention this time. That's the second time I completely misread them.

That is impossible unless there was a Janna. Not even GP's buff would increase it that much. Do you still have the replay?

If you guys are aware of any confirmed hacks and have proof/replays/reproduction methods please PM me privately with details so I can confirm them and pass them on to Riot Engineering. Thanks.

it's interesting about bots. the intermediate bots are actually pretty decent now, but the beginner bots are still absolute crap. the inter bots are probably better than ~80% of normals i play sadly.

Actually the max you can get from runes is around 22, not 15.3. You also get 5ad from ignite. Did he have a red pot? Because that number is very possible with a red pot and ignite.

51 (base) + 6.2 (3.1*2 levels) + 10 (dorans) + 21.69 (max runes) + 4 (max masteries) + 14 (janna) is 106.89 ; still short

Well, there you go, 106.89 (107) + 5 = 112

But the Janna thing seems unlikely -_-

Red Elixir is unlikely since he had Dorans.

The only reason I'd see myself not getting it is really if someone else was building one.

Fh is much more tank based item imo, like amumu/cho/maokai/malphite, etc etc. There are only a few bruisers I would say, that actually itemizes better than randuins, which is ryze/ww/and maybe a few others. But for most bruisers that dive onto enemy carries, randuins is usually the better choice.

FFS lets please not get into the whole business of splitting hairs between "what is a bruiser" and "what is a tank" please?

HoG is still very good on any tanky champion that wants to eventually grab Randuins, and 50hp is a big nerf, but not EXTREMELY huge.

It is when the upgrade only gave 70 HP to begin with.

Honestly, even if I'm building Randuin's I'd build Warden's Mail first at this point. That little extra gold that HoG makes isn't worth the fact that you're getting less than it's worth for 10 minutes.


I would agree. As I mainly jungle or top shyvana (when it comes to tanky champs) I'm never hurting for income and the extra 5 every 10 isn't going to help at all. I find Raduins pretty situational as well. The enemy AD carry having a cleaver and/or last whisper would be the main situations I'd even consider it.


Randuins is definitely not situational, it's almost undeniably the go to armor item for bruisers right now. FH not for bruisers, thornmail is garbage so literally anytime you need serious armor as a bruiser (pretty much always) you should be looking at randuins

How is FH not for bruisers? Big armor, CDR (which most bruisers love), and the AS debuff aura for diving AD carries. The only thing not great about it is the mana, but even that is somewhat nice considering most bruisers don't get much mp5 if any.

A bruiser punches people(lee sin, malphite). Only thing that comes close to a tank is rumble.
