Found out what destroys ap midalee: tristana (AP or AD) or caitlyn, doesn't matter. AA range is too long to harass with auto attack early, so she can harass all day long

I find humor in the fact that the championship skin was Riven, yet she only saw one game in the tournament.

Trist's range isn't that great early on. But yes. Cait destroys too many champions.

Also, I hate to be one of those "a skin made me play a champ" people, but the championship Riven really revitalized my love for this champ.

So... since Froggen's been playing lee sin mid for a while now... and succeeding with it even though he misses most of his Q's even the easy ones, I think we can say the meta isn't really that unbreakable right now.

I posted this in the S2 WC thread. Gonna repost it here since it's probably more relevant.

Incoming jungle changes for S3. Supposed to be a revert of S2 jungle changes to something between S1 jungle and S2 jungle.

In part. It's also a brief expression of existential doubt, the uncertainty that what just happened was real. A portrait of a man coming to grips with the ugly truths that reality holds. A desire for an existence beyond the banal and dissapointing world that we share in.

Most people in this thread will agree that things like tryn, fiora, lee sin, or jarvan mid are all super viable and potentially strong. Problem is aps that can survive the long lane are limited in selection.

why is theoddone's elo so low? after watching aphromoo cruise through 2600's i look to TOO stream and see he's at low 2200's and making bad plays (and kicking himself for them). he plays almost purely junglers and does seem to be trying to make good plays. i've heard that some pros purposely keep their elo in a range that'll keep queue times low but im really doubting that's the case for TOO. i feel like i've been deceived by the hype of his viewer count, his nickname of the General, and the hype of TSM, into thinking he's a better player than he is. i can only guess he has a lot of knowledge that doesnt apply to solo queue, but i question his ability to understand the game if he cant master solo queue as well, especially as a jungler, a role which has so many decisions to make, thus so many opportunities to make superior decisions

Look like he's gained 100-150 Elo, then.

He typically does AWFUL in anything but the jungler role and he's extremely stubborn with 2-3x gp10 builds that leave him really weak in midgame fights, even when his team is geared around that being their strong point. There's lot of little things he does, but those are some common themes.

ehhhh

mechanics are mostly what get you through high elo solo queue (by playing strong lane heroes or mechanically intensive carry junglers like olaf or our recent releases). one doesn't need to be a mechanical player to be a great player, plenty of other junglers with mediocre mechanical skill remain at a competitive level (hotshot comes to mind) through superior game sense or exceptional synergy with another player (in oddone's case, regi). the skills oddone has aren't that valuable in solo queue but extremely valuable in a coordinated team environment.

also he sometimes just screws around in solo queue to entertain the viewers, if he tryharded all the time and only played his best heroes he could easily get into the higher elos (he's done it before).

edit: also to address the last sentence of your post, almost all of those decisions are more or less reliant on your team. when oddone's playing with regi they may as well be one person but in solo queue there's much less coordination between players which can pretty easily skewer the judgement of a team-reliant player like oddone.

I've found this to be the most difficult part of jungling in solo queue. If your lane doesn't follow up properly on your gank or maintain the position of the creeps in lane to allow for a gank or help cover you when you counter jungle or come help when the enemy's counter-jungling you, or ward properly or.....

When you play jungle, you're pretty reliant on your teammates doing intelligent things or at least being on the same wavelength as you. If there not, a lot of stupidity can ensue. This is particularly the case when you're playing a more supporty jungle (eg, Maokai, Nunu, etc.) where they're not going to carry late.

All pro player's elo took hits while they were practicing for World Championships. They stopped streaming and solo queuing for a good 2 weeks, then that entire week for wold championships. So 3 weeks of no solo queing, I'm pretty sure ELO decays, right? Plus all the pros have times where they troll their ELO down so they can get reasonable queue times. Not everyone wants to be ForellenLord.
