Or you could, you know, not flame them and move on with your life? If someone is playing bad or is just plain dumb, do you really feel like it's your civic duty to hurl insults at them? Grow up, dude.
I rarely flame, but how do you keep your cool when a guy is feeding and saying he is feeding because you didn't gank before lvl 3 ?
I can't read it in the first place. Muting feeders on principle. They don't have anything worthwile to say anyways and more often than not spam in team/all chat exponentionally the more they feed.

Personally, I give my rational reasons (you were too pushed, I was needed elsewhere, it wasn't necessary), and if they act like a moron, I ignore them. Not a difficult concept.
I was watching CLG.NA stream their match against TD and instantly thought how terrible their communication was. Like I don't see how a team with that bad communication can ever go from being just "good" to "great". Is it normal for LoL teams to have absolutely no real direction in games and communication?

I'm not sure I follow the logic on Caitlyn. Also, I'm waiting for Riot to remove the cast time from Akali's E. She will totally not be imbalanced as a result.
The Tribunal changes are interesting. They must be pretty confident people will keep using it if they're removing the IP reward.

What kind of human being tells students not to use L'Hopital's on a limit? That's like telling a starcraft player not to use hotkeys
I know right? WTF. I'd rather prove L'Hopital's rule BY HAND and use it on those limits than wade through the sea of algebra you get from doing those limits by hand.
If you don't want students using L'Hopital's rule on a limit, you should give them a limit where it doesn't apply (no 0/0 or inf/inf). I have no idea how many times when tutoring that I've seen a 1/0 limit and someone tries to throw L'Hopital's rule at it to get the wrong answer. Or differentiate a 0^0 expression...
Did you do ok on the calculus thing, nyxnyxnyx?
Meanwhile, in LoLoLand, I'll be rooting for CLG EU, for Dignitas, and barring that, against TSM and M5! (Though I do admit M5 is one of the best teams there, I just like rooting against them)
Also I want the Korean teams to mop up the leftovers.
I don't think they know what they want to do with Cait, honestly. They want her to be a poke champ with lane domination, I think, but they have a bunch of other ADs that do those better in a lot of ways. If they really want to give her the position of Sniper champion, she needs something else. Maybe like, scaling damage depending on how far she is from a champion or something like that.

There should definitely be more to it than that. Either:
- Make it like Q, where you can lessen the damage by standing in front of it, but it still goes through, so it works as both a burst ability or a teamfight ability
or
-If someone other than the intended target blocks the bullet, it does extra (like a lot extra) damage. Brings a bit more thought process to it, and also makes it a bit useful for chunking front lines at the beginning of a fight
These won’t fix her as a champ, but yeah, her ult could use something new.

Just give the x amount of top reviewers each week/month an RP reward.

The most die-hard mathematicians hate when you want to use L'Hopital when it's not necessary. "Don't shoot at a sparrow with a cannon." (translated literally, meaning overkill). Most of the times there are more elegant ways of finding the answer, and choosing the cheap way doesn't really help you improve(According to them).IMO they just love teaching stuff you will never use instead of something more practical.

I don't see why you would lose your cool. If he says that, he's not saying anything about you, he's just showing how immature his decision-making is. Losing your cool and acting disrespectfully towards someone who is already being immature is not going to help either way.
If he decided to feed intentionally, that's his decision, not yours; unless you provoked him specifically, there's no reason you should feel responsible. More likely than not he's just on tilt and using you as a scapegoat, and if you respond, you're just playing into his hands. Just ignore him and report him after the game if he really was feeding intentionally. You don't owe anyone an answer in chat; arguing with angry online gamers gets you nowhere (in LoL or in life). Just play the game as best as you can, don't comment on or argue with the feeder unless you have something constructive to say.

Apparently they tried to that when they tried to change Xerath's passive. It worked out like this: If I'm not close to max range I'm not doing the damage I should. Drats, they moved back two steps and now I do 0 damage. Granted, Cait's being able to move coupled with this might help but idk.

Imo it's one of the best designed ability in the game. I love design on abilities that can be defensively counterplayed.
I think it'd be neat if Cait's ult worked a little more like Nunu's Ult, I guess would be the closest comparison.
The first time you hit R you pick your target and she begins to charge it. After 1 second she can pres R again to release it. (This would be exactly how it is now except having to push R twice.)
However you could charge it longer, say up to 4 seconds. And each second you charge adds more to it. Either more damage, armor shred, anything.
This way if you want to use to snipe someone you charge it real quick and release it. If you want to use it to poke you charge it up for massive damages before the fight starts. It also lets you feel like a sniper (at least in soloQ) because you can try and thread people blocking it by controlling when to release it.
