They've talked about this, the team that works on new champions and the team that works on rebalancing old champions are two different groups of people. One of them works faster, unfortunately.

Looks like Zed is a damage oriented bruiser:

Riot itzmattu compares him to Lee, Riven, Jayce, Rengar, and Irelia, saying he's strong jungle and possibly top. Lacks defensive options but makes up for it with mobility.

I can dig it.


So another damage jungler that will probably end up overpowered top on release because they'll increase his base stats because junglers don't get as much gold.
Also, I know it's not a good business plan, but seriously you could just rework talon into this and release a skin.


Yeah I am not excited at all about Zed, this information basically verifies why I am not excited. Feels like every other champion they've made recently save Syndra.

Im with the people in the thread, id like to see another ADC truthfully.


What's needed is like 3 or 4 supports. The last real support they released was Lulu, and that's quite a while ago...

So far the M5 vs SK match has been thrilling and exhilarating, cannot wait to see how it ends.

What happened? I went away for a few minutes and it's offline.

Edit: Guess SK forfeit, it shows as 1-0 on in2lol.

There's Zyra now. Even though she wasn't intended as one... but at least Riot doesn't seem to want to "undo" it like they undid AP Janna.

It makes sense if you think about it.

The team that makes new champions more or less has free reign to release what they want. They need a cool concept and fun basic gameplay, but other issues can more or less be worried about after release.

The team that remakes old champions has to come up with solutions to those issues. Degenerate/anti-fun gameplay that ended up getting through on the champ's initial design have to be tackled, which is much harder than just having a cool concept and fun basic gameplay.

Huh? What is Ferus? What is Fear? Who is Gnome?
o.o

Ferus - Formally mTw.NA and MMe.Ferus
Gnome - Gnomesayin, their team manager
FeaR - Their new sponsor who also sponsored COD.

Oh, so i guess noone comments about them because they weren't really any big team tbh

It does make sense but then why are we seeing the same kind of idea constantly.

The remake team also isn't on a deadline. They have to get things right, whereas the new champ designers... don't. as you can see.

Your plants' damage scale with level and AP, not the ranks of your abilities, so it's better to go E>W>Q or E > W = Q.

Yes. But iirc, TPA only picked vayne when they were blue side and they tried some mind games with lane switches as well.


Why was it important that they only did it on blue side? Double golems? Red?

iirc you do EWQ, then R > E > W >Q. Main reason is you want to get your E maxed first to have the longer root duration. The W next to get the CDR and to be able to plant more seeds down faster, either for faux-wards or to EWW someone. Q you usually level up last just because you won't have the AP/Mana to make it worth it and thus you basically just use it as another way to pop your seeds.

At least that's basically how I'd do it.

just max the root, catch people in it and cast 2 plants on top of them.
and use the huge autoattack range.

Aphro is pretty popular at the moment, just yesterday there was several pages speculating who their new sponsor was going to be. They have the potential to be really good IMO (NA scene anyway).

Which game? There was one where it was TPA playing Lulu Vayne vs. Sona Ezreal, and one where it was Nunu Vayne vs. Leona Ezreal
The Lulu Vayne game, I don't remember how lane went, but Frost eventually won.

The Nunu Vayne game, pressure from Mundo compared to Shen being a slow jungler was pretty crucial to how lanes played out.
I think a combination between:
Double Golems
River ward spots (purple side is less safe from jungle ganks due to entry points, which means purple is taking more/bigger risks when attempting to properly punish Vayne.)

While he is obviously on top of the pro-scene, some of his choices are really awkward, such as how he also suggests that Janna should run ArPen reds (WTF).

Maybe he has some reasons to max Q first, but I feel that CDR and faster seeds generation is more important, especially since plants damage does not scale with Q ranks.
