With pre-nerf DFG I did around 2k damage on some FoN double warmogs Shen, as Swain with torment on and around 500 AP. Maybe I should have sold boots for void staff.

everyone needs to play more arranged 5s, a team full of solo queue players no matter what elo is always going to be garbage compared to a team with 5s experience.

DFG is just a typical case of Riot underestimating the effects of a range buff/nerf. Nothing else about the item was made definitively better, but 650->750 range is an enormous change that makes the active way smoother to use in all circumstances.

Yeah. Let's assume you have enough magic penetration from boots and guise and runes that you can deal true damage to a squishy. Just DFG and a % health damage spell(which riot seems to really love now) like eve's ult is enough to murder. At a certain amount of AP it becomes possible to one shot people with no mr.

I think that the extra smite in bot lane can be very valuable in securing dragon though. Seeing how passive most games are these days, that dragon gold can be pretty important. (plus, an extra 10 gp (plus minion) every minute is kind of significant to a support).

But srsly, the only support I'd ever take smite on is Blitz. It synergizes with him so well.


How often does dragon actually come down to a mid fight smite-off...like never, especially as people get better and learn to recognize when they can take and contest dragon, and when they need to gtfo.


I often see people trying to sneak a dragon when the enemy jungler is top...

That doesn't necessarily mean you can contest it though. The jungler being top often means it's an uneven fight, and they can just turn and kill you if you try to smite it.

Making friends on lol, and making friends on lol that you would be able to put together an organized 5's team with, are not the same thing.

If I made a 5's team with 4 of my friends in LoL and froggen, they'd be 900 elo at max.

Hey man you only need 4, life ain't that bad :/

I think the only time someone other than the jungler should be taking smite is when you're having fun in normals.

For example:
pick teemo, smite and some other summoner
run to enemy blue, stand still
smite steal
run away

Or perhaps the classic bankplank 4gp10 money masteries and runes and smite mastery (TF also has to be on your team)

Or everyone takes smite and someone plays nunu and then do dragon at level 2

Or pick vs heimerdinger and watch him be sad

SO MANY OPTIONS

Also I recently played a blitzcrank game where we went to invade and i go for a grab on heimerdinger...it's gonna hit ezpz...then he puts down a turret and my hand just like hits it and then flops onto the ground looking all depressed and slithers sadly back to me. Invade failed. Heimerdinger is so tempting to grab but apparently turrets are good vs blitz lol

The hard part of making a 5s team isn't necessarily finding four other guys but finding four other guys who can evenly fill roles.

Not many people want to pick one role and stick to it. And you don't even have to do that in arranged 5s but when you have three guys who all want to play jungle or top and are inexperienced in the other roles it makes it really difficult to take arranged 5s seriously.

I dunno, I'd like to play arranged 5s and just dedicate myself to one role (probably mid or AD carry) with other people who just dedicate themselves to one role. The issue is that my group of friends all play pretty much the same two roles (jungle/top) making the open roles really lacking if one of them plays it.

I tried to do this for like five straight games, somehow the other team always sees it coming when you run TP/smite teemo.

Not to mention the hardest part, finding the time to have games. Schedules and shit be complex yo
