As for ward placement, I see pro players ward the mid lane side bushes sometimes, and other times wraiths or the bush nearer blue buff. I'm not sure I understand the thought process behind why these better players decide to ward where they do, anyone have some insight?
I'd be interested in an organized thought process behind where to ward as mid too. I just place wards in the side bushes like a nub.
Which bush is the banana bush?

I would think the one from outside blue to river, but I could be mistaken.

Checked LoLKing wins were awarded during the crash ^^

The place you ward depends on alot of things actually. Like what type of jungle do they have, what type of mid. If the mid tends to roam you and if the jungler has some large jump or cc that he can use on u without going through river, then warding wraiths is better earlier. But lil later on you should have wraiths warded majority of the time. Plus warding wraiths lets you keep a better eye on their jungler for both ur lane and bot a bit. And allows you to play a lil moar aggressive.
Banana bush is the one from river to your blue with the curve.

Liandry's Lament is an incredible looking item.
Controlled Burn Mage Item Recipe: Haunting Guise, Amplifying Tome Passive: Dealing spell damage burns enemies for a % of their current life over 3 seconds. This effect deals double damage if the target's movement is impaired.

holy shit this is a brand new game

Some of these item changes are hilarious.
They're buffing DFG again? Did I read that right?
Lich Bane nerf makes me sad.
5 minute duration on Oracles zomg
Liandry's Lament looks ridickerous if it's got health, AP, spell pen and that burn.
Ohmwrecker and Banner of Command look real interesting.

Oracles capped at 5 minutes. That's fucking huge.

i believe i called this:
Frozen Fist Resistance oriented version of Sheen Recipe: Sheen + Glacial Shroud Passive: After using an ability, your next attack deals physical damage equal to 125% of your base attack damage to surrounding enemies. This leaves an icy field that slows enemy movement speed by X% for Y seconds

That tower disable item is so broken.
No fucking way that stays in the game.

I like the support chalice item. And yeah, unless it's extremely expensive turning off towers for 2.5 seconds seems broken.

I've had some weird lag issues lately. Haven't played that many games so don't know for sure but things have felt sluggish and I had one game with "spikes" when usually everything is butter smooth.

New Sword of the Divine looks absolutely crazy too for a mid-game ADC item.

Sight Stone is a consumable? I don't see why everyone wouldn't buy one as well as a Crystal Flask. Fuck these changes are crazy.

I like the new items. Actually branching out and trying new shit. Crazy actives make shit fun
