So apparently I'm a honorable opponent now... haven't received any notification, nor did I get honor for that at my last game I believe. Uh. ôo

You get the notification after logging in. Also, you only get +honor notifications when you leave the end game screen, if someone is on the endgame screen longer than you and honors you after you left, you won't be notified until the next time you leave an endgame screen or after logging in again.

Flat mana regen is better for levels 1-9 I believe then the per level mana regen seals start beating them

They break even at level 7.

Seal 0.065 / level vs. 0.41 (Level 6.3 breakeven point. Less at 6, more at 7.)
Glyph 0.055 / level vs. 0.31 (level 5.6 breakeven point.)

Thing is, mana regen is one of the few things where this is worthwhile tradeoff to go per level. Most characters aren't going to burn through all their mana pre-6, and if you're trying to avoid buying a mana item through your runes, the per levels are going to be more effective. Either glyphs or seals can work well for this.

Remember that level 7 is only the break-even point in terms of your mana-regen rate. You won't break even on total mana regained until well after hitting level 7.

And one other interesting thing:
Per lvl mana regen glyphs are 85% as effective as seals, but flat mana regen glyphs are only 76% as effective as the seals.

FINALLY made it to 1850. As soon as I hit the threshold, all motivation disappeared. Basically doing nothing but trolling and picking new champs in ranked now.

So happy the Season 3 Path to Pro might turn around the importance of solo q to ranked 5s.

Just pulled back over 1400. Does it end "on November 6th" with thursday included or not? If it is, well maybe if I can get lucky as hell I'll beat 1500. I don't have the level anyway, won the last one with good teamwork but I didn't carry in any sense of the term (meh Viktor lategame, especially when the enemy AD is smart and stays in the back shredding your frontline while Irelia dives yours).

Anyone else here think Karthus should be reworked or removed from the game?

I'ts has nothing to do with whether or not he's overpowered or underpowered, I'll leave that up to pro players, but his kit is completely awful from a game design standpoint. He's put together in such a way that there is no counterplay to him, If you ignore him he does massive damage to everyone on the team, if you focus him he does basically the exact same amount of damage. As long as he stays with the team there is nothing you can do to mitigate him at all, especially after zhonyas. His ult which is supposed to have this long channel, he's given it for free after he dies. So by killing him early you are actually increasing his upfront damage, not to mention that his wall will do its thing regardless of his status.

He's just terribly designed.
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Some people argue that he is the most unique character in a moba game due to the way his passive works.

Also he can't move once he dies. You just walk around him.

Yeah, I too think he is a horrible champ. I mean, in Dota you head zeus and his global ulti was annoying as well. But the fact that karthus can cast after he is dead is just stupid, as you said. Focus him or not, it doesnt make a big difference in team fights.
I usually ban him, i hate these kind of heros. Panth/tf/shen ultis are ok, but Karthus is just r -> win. woho. On lane you spam q. Woho. Woho.

Woho fuck this, banned

Wait, so because the decision of whether or not you should kill him in a give fight is unclear, highly situational, and depends a lot on a player's situational awareness and game knowledge, he has "no counterplay" and should be removed? Decision-making should be easy, binary, no-brainers at all levels of the game?

You've gotta be fucking shitting me...

90% of situations where the "no counterplay" argument is used involve scenarios where players demonstrate poor foresight, game sense, and situational awareness, rather than situations that are actually "no counterplay".

Displacement, exhaust, longish range burst them disengage and shutting him down in lane is enough counter play I think.

Lies. There is nothing you can do, once Karthus is picked, his side wins. It is known.
