So the question is what's giving you more overall damage, the active on DFG or the 20% CDR on Morello's?

And if somebody says yeah but I'm running Ignite so there's no point, you don't HAVE to run Ignite. You could run Exhaust, or something crazy like Teleport. I really like taking Teleport on mids.

Why is it set in stone that you have to get your CDR from an item that also grants AP?

The lack of other CDR+AP options doesn't magically make Morello's on manaless champs more cost-effective.


What would you get that's more cost effective? Shurelya's? Soul Shroud? Frozen Heart?

The first has a lot of mana regen on it, the second only gives 10% CDR, and the third is likely already being picked up by the top or the jungler and also has a lot of mana on it.

Phreak never said they're not touching crit or anything else. All he said was that they're changing the way Arpen is calculated and that doesn't exclude other numbers changes on other items or masteries at all.


The reason that TheYango, myself, and a few others are making such a big deal out of this isn't because we are oblivious to the context in which this change is taking place. We understand that items and masteries will be changing, and that it's naive to assume Riot will allow Xerath to deal true damage to any champion with less than 150 MR. What has us concerned is the extensive scope of this change, the mathematical hazard this presented in the past, and the seemingly narrow focus of Riot's intent.

In short, this is the balance equivalent of replacing your car door to fix a small dent. It may work, but it's a much more complicated, time consuming, and expensive solution than should ultimately be necessary.

The problem with Fiora is that she has the farm demand of a 1st or 2nd position hero in a game where it's pretty much set in stone that your 1st and 2nd position hero are your ranged AD and AP carry.

It's possible that she doesn't need any help at all if people could find a way to make melee 1st/2nd position heroes work.

Well, most AP champions want AP on every item they buy. The only other way to get CdR is something like shurelyas or FH, which is not something people would buy on an AP champ. Though one could start thinking about CDR boots on APs, that might actually make sense.

It's just current meta right now, before top use to be #1 farm priority not to long ago. I could see farm dependent junglers becoming more viable in these changes, especially in earl game, where early map presence is weak from midlane, but jungler map presence is always there, even pre-6. Of course i'm ridic bias, because fiora es numero uno.
Fiora top lane might be pretty strong soon too, they're nerfing sustain some more as well.

So on friend's list, they only show highest elo now, not current.

Pretty stupid

Edit: after experiementing with Durr, we've determined that if you're diamond, it shows current elo. Otherwise not.

So if you're not top tier, you're just in a mish mash of people. Stupid.

Ok. I have two questions:

1. What the heck does one do as Ryze in a Ryze v. Malphite mid matchup. He got ganks at 2, 4, at 2 I lived, 4 we went 1-for 1, but then after that he was just unmovable in lane.

2. Half the time Morgana and Kat, my two main mids, are banned at my ELO, who should I pick up?

Ori is solid, but hard. I guess that in Ryze vs Malphite, you can win the lane by a) not getting instadunked b) not running out of mana. I haven't played the matchup, but if you really struggle with it maybe chalice into ruby crystal into tear might be good. You better dunk his ass after though.

ONTOPIC:

has anyone else caught on to the fact that degenerate champs/playstyles exist in LoL and are an easy way to gain Elo for absolutely little skill investment?
