The remake loses a lot of charm of the original champion. They never had any charm. Fuck champs with CD resets, that have stealth, that have enormous amounts of free mobility, that are designed purely around 100-0ing someone. Similarly, fuck DFG, an item whose sole point of existing is to instagib someone. I could go on, but suffice to say champs like Kat or Eve are extremely toxic and never remotely enjoyable to play against. THAT'S why they have no business existing, let alone being buffed or changed to become viable. | ||

The remake loses a lot of charm of the original champion. Eve's old kit just had to go. Long duration stealth is just not balance-able in the context of a game where the general power level is so low. You just don't have design room to play with in terms of balancing long duration stealth. | ||

I mean they didn't even bother trying to fix Eve after removing the stun... They decided "NAH FUCK IT, we'll just say we'll completely change invisibility a year from now". | ||

It seems that on speedtest.com I get 200+ ping from the LA test server. Sigh, this game is so unplayable for me right now.... QQ Its strange, I play on EUW from India, so my ping is always 160-180, I find it quite playable | ||

MoonBizzle, do you think I could work that out in a support ticket? It takes their support team so long to do anything, you wont get the RP back in time. dont even bother. Also, on your question; they'll refund anything you buy 1 time, and if youre really really lucky twice. | ||

There are many things you cannot do when you have that much latency. For example, Ahri's R has a 1 second cooldown between dashes. If you want to hit an Ahri with Cassiopeia's Q during Ahri's ultimate, you have a 1 second window. Assuming you have 0.2 seconds delay and the Ahri has 0 seconds delay, then: Time 0: Ahri use R Time 0.2: you see Ahri's R Time 0.2: (for argument's sake): you cast Q at Ahri's current position Time 0.4: Your Q registers by the server Time 1.0: Your Q lands after the 0.6 delay. This is assuming you can react instantly. Unfortunately it takes most players 0.05-0.1 seconds to react (because this involves seeing the situation as well as repositioning the mouse cursor), so unless you have <0.15 seconds delay Ahri is basically invulnerable while she ults. | ||

It just takes a lot of getting used to, and it just kinda sucks. Also I agree, fuck Rogers. I don't have latency issues, but I hate their stupid plans and the fact that I can't stream in high def because of bandwidth caps and the fact that I only have 1 Mbps. | ||

The real problem is having frequent changes in the ping. I get ~180-200 to NA and it's easily playable. You get used to it in 1 or 2 games. You won't ever be quite as fast (aka not as good), but it's not that big of a deal. And a lot of that can be further diminished by picking champs/roles accordingly. But if you get a lot of lagspikes (doesn't happen often anymore, but it used to way back when EU server was really terrible), you might as well go afk, and be at least as useful. Cause thanks to the Ultimate Law Of The Universe, the lag will ALWAYS spike at the worst time possible. | ||

The chinese play at 200 or more ping. you want to play like the chinese. therefore you want 200 ping. The chinese learn to judge where the arhi is gona come out of her dash's and q's there early. you are now asian level moba player. | ||

They decided "NAH FUCK IT, we'll just say we'll completely change invisibility a year from now". How could they successfully balance it? It seems like stealth is inherently problematic in LoL because of the heavy emphasis on warding and the basically 50% markup in price for stealth detection + the added need for lane wards to prevent lane ganks. | ||

Also, I remember when I was spectating one of the featured games, it was interesting to note that my 70 ping, which was normal or low in my games (~1200 elo), would have been among the highest in the featured game. | ||

Dealing with it is a matter of improving your anticipation. | ||
