Cloth + 3 + ward (works like boots+4... you wait for 5 gold to buy the last item) might be secretly awesome though. | ||

Pretty much this. Back when junglers still started cloth5 you'd see more doran and cloth5 on laners, but now that almost everyone opens boots, you're going to have a cede a decent amount of CS until you know where the jungler is, or know without a doubt that you're safe early. (Maybe you saw them start regrow?) And if that armor doesn't quickly turn into something useful for you, you may become too far behind. I mean, if they're scary enough to start armor, you'll probably want tabi, but if you're just sitting on cloth armor until GA or something ridiculous it's probably hurting you more than helping. | ||

But then what, you're just sitting on Cloth until GA (or making Tabi I guess)? I can see it being good in that specific matchup maybe, but why do that when you can go Boots-Dblades and not have to worry about defenses because you have your shield/MS/some damage? I've never found Wu to be abusive enough towards Riven that I feel scared enough to buy Cloth to counter him. | ||

If you need Cloth Armor to survive the lane, it stands to reason that Tabi would be a sound investment, especially as they increase the effectiveness of your shield. | ||

I haven't seen one in game that wasn't a bot game and they'd feed the bots. | ||

Are you joking? DL plays a lot of the adc's. The only one I see him actively dislike playing is Ashe, and Kog. | ||

Once you get Phage and Sheen and you time all your moves properly you get a ton of burst damage from sheen. At lvl 11 the Sheen proc is worth 89 bonus physical damage while two wits end hits are worth 84 magic damage. You get a sheen proc basically every two auto attacks and this allows you to go 9 into red tree for the physical penetration, and you can go 21 defense and skip out on the wits end for GA or just get a FoN if you really need MR plus more MS. Now if you land a Phage proc, you can basically 100-0 any squishy by timing your ultimate to maximize sheen procs with just phage and sheen. Wits end was good for the sustain synergy with Irelia's w but now that the isn't as strong you can go TF first. | ||

That said, I don't think Elise's kit has the same potential as Jayce's. Four of her abilities are all damage and no utility, leaving her with only a stun, a good one, for team synergy. I think in a few months we'll see more of her, but for now the difficulty of learning her combined with her weaknesses will quickly make her unpopular. | ||

she feels both slow and squishy, but she doesn't seem to make a good mid and she seems terrible in the jungle. | ||

EDIT: to clarify, because the other team can counterpick with Sona, and the teams generally didn't feel like using a ban on Sona when they can just use another support. | ||
