champion designers are obviously doing this to imply women are actually two faced creatures. Lawsuit against Riot incoming.

What do you guys think of Nunu support? Apparently Maknoon said Nunu is not played in Korea?

Nunu is A fantastic support for hyper carries like kog and vayne spiking their dps fairly early. Korean adc meta doesn't really factor in these hyper carries because they play a much more aggressive style that would end the game before kog came into his own.

Don't you need to pick a support better at protecting their carries with carries who need to just not lose lane? I would think Janna goes better with Vayne than Nunu does, same for Kog.

cause it provides more of a contrast between their two forms imo. They go from pretty lady to horrible monster instead of just like buff guy to horrible monster.

it's still dumb imo, but so are lots of things about league's general character design so w/e

For what it is worth I like running Draven while my friend goes Nunu support. With Bloodboil and W I get plenty of attack speed so I just build IE and Bloodthirster before Phantom Dancer. Probably not viable at higher levels of play, but it is a lot of fun dealing Tons of Damage

Snowball + Stand Aside is also really nice in lane to punish your opponent for over extending, especially if they are someone squishy like Sona at early levels.

Nunu is more of an investment to the later game with bloodboil than janna, and he's not bad at protecting either, snowball is a ton of slow and its easy to run away with BB.

Well blue buff on mids is a lot more about wave control.

It can be huge, but not on Lee Sin lol. That's just Froggen's ego getting to him.


Shake #1 froggen hater now that he's popularized Lee Sin mid.

Btw I'm GP vs Lee sin mid now. FML I h8 Froggen too.

Nah I like him but I do believe Skarner, Hecarim, and Amumu should have priority over the 2nd blue but Froggen thinks he deserves it on heroes like Lee.


Do you think this applies to all mids? I've been telling people so and I get 2nd blues with my school team. I might not play enough mid but I can't imagine if this wasn't better for the team especially 2nd blue gives those junglers lv6 90% o the time if they haven't reached it before.

Practically speaking, it's just awkward to pick blue-dependent junglers and mids together. Asian teams tried to avoid pairing Skarner+Karthus or the like together, while CLG.Eu just willingly pick themselves into it.

If you're not playing something awkward like Skarner+Karthus, blue priority should be more or less straightforward.

This is true but there are some mids that are less blue dependent than others, and there are some combos like karthus/amumu that are too good to pass up. For example I think anyone who rushes chalice can do without a 2nd blue unless it's anivia.

Oh if it's Lee Sin mid then I think the jungler should have the blue =\

Actually this probably explains the Orianna picks in WCS, could afford to lose blues, but not be too royally screwed by it.

It doesn't apply to most mids but it also doesn't apply to most junglers for me, if that makes sense. Like you said, it has a lot to do with hitting 6 early on junglers that have game changing ults, such as Skarn, Hec and Amumu but it also helps that they need the buff. I'd probably give up blue to Anivia no matter what I'm jungling, which is probably where Froggen got this idea from. Yango is right in the idea that you should pick non-blue dependent mids with blue dependent junglers, which I have been saying for a long time now.
