Standard name already taken on TL. :< other way around. name already taken on LoL. I would never have chosen Mogwai as my primary forum name if I had realized how fucking difficult it would be to get in popular games. Or you could be like Moonbear, multiple personality disorder.

I've used my game name since I was like 14 i believe, and it originated from a book I was writing. But becausw it's kind of generic people use it too so sometimes have to add a 2 or 23 at the end T_T
I remember back in travian some people tried using my name and pretended to be me though. That used to be entertaining.

It started with Incontrol stating with a big disclaimer that Riot was going to force teams choose either LOL or Dota.
This statement was promptly denied by Riot/
Next day, Sirscoot on LO3 stated that Riot had been talking to teams to implement the ideas. But various organizations including Dignitas, Complexity, EG persuaded Riot not to.
This is where it gets confusing. We don't know who Scoots source really is. Did he directly talk to Riot when he was interested in a LoL team? And if so, Did Riot state their plan for the exclusion during this talk?
Complexity only statement corresponded to Sir Scoots but again it is unknown if Riot had directly talked to complexity about the exclusion deal.
Where the real wrench is Dignitas Odee's statement. He stated he heard rumors about the exclusion deal but did not approach Riot until after Pax. He then stated Riot denied the rumor of exclusion deal. So at the very least, we know that Riot had not talked about the exclusion deal to Dignitas.
The problem was that Dignitas was suppose to be one of the orginal source for Slasher who was also on LO3. Slasher stated Diginitas would be able to corroborate their story which turned out to be false.
And now Scoots just reaffirmed his earlier statement, but nothing new was added.
So, basically clusterfuck for everyone involved and no one looks good as usual.

You can't build them on AD's because it's useless as you need to go fairly close to actually get the active off which defeats the purpose of a ad carry. It's also kinda shitty on bruisers because crit is shitty on bruisers.Also there are usually quite a few ignites in the game,so don't buy it ever.

I dunno about exec. If you go IE,PD,LW, GA. It's a pretty good gapcloser before you can afford a BT.

Never sure if it's after IE, before PD or after PD I would say this is probably one of the best situational items in the game. What I mean is you won't build it every game, but when you build it at the right time, it works very well. The times I will build it is usually after IE if my lane is having trouble with a sustain support. The heal reduction is on a super short cooldown (lasts 8 seconds with a 20 second cooldown, so effectively 12 seconds.) and can catch a lot of people off guard if they aren't carefully watching your items. The other time I build it is near the end of the game when the next team fight might decide the fate of the match, but I don't have the time or money to get a fully stacked BT. It has the highest lifesteal next to that stacked BT, so it can make the difference between life and death in a team fight.

Your use of the term gapcloser here is ambiguous and problematic. Also, you might as well just sit on a Vamp Scepter if you're already at your 5 item point.
Execution's Calling is a crutch for when your team fails champion select and doesn't have enough Ignites. It's great if you have bruiser jungler who doesn't care about the slot inefficiency, or in some rare cases top lane where you want to counter an enemy champion's sustain.
If they shaved 250g or so off the combine cost it might be more popular.

I think the remade Morello's is arguably better at filling the "not enough ignites" hole than Execs.
