He has, then he got unbenched because the one guy they tried out wasn't even a support player. Elementz forever bad.

There is no bot lane I have seen lose more that CRS NA's. Cop is a mediocre at best AD(plenty of solo queue AD's with more skill) and Elementz doesn't even look like a pro player.

Their A-game is going even with other teams.

Meh, I think you underestimate Cop. He's probably got one of the best teamfighting ADC's in NA, his laning phase is definitely a step behind the other pro AD's for sure.

And, Crs has historically been beating TSM like 4 times in a row before the s3 patch. I think right now it's just s3 nerves/jitters. People still getting use to patch.

In certain situations it's CLEAR that Elementz does not know how to play. It was shown today with that Taric "escape", but there are plenty of other examples.

Both teams played AD Ezreal mid along with the AD/support bot at least once in their games.

Imagine of all the things teams can do with homeguard. If you're fighting at your inhib or nexus towers and 5 of you get homeguard.... my god. I'm actually excited to see what pro teams can do (not NA though, NA is retarded and will not innovate anything in their life).

Thing is, there is few and far between games where curse's bot lane actually doesn't come out of laning behind any team they face.

Somebody had homeguards boots in one game, on a Kha'Zix (think it was yesterday, can't remember). Homeguard speed boost + evolved E meant the other team thought they could take an inhib and suddenly a clinky purple ball rushed them faster than a Rammus and EW'd into them to put down the hurt and force them off the inhib tower.

Homeguard is sleeper op. Teleport ganks are 100x scarier with homeguard boots.

I love when something that seems innocuous at first (wtf? it doesn't do anything once I leave base) turns out to have really good applications.

Man, I really was going to buy ziggs but now I don't think I am because they nerfed Grail so hard....That buffed grail was basically what made him strong, there is no alternative.

I got Ziggs today. He doesn't really need Grail it seems. Loves him some Seraphs Embrace.

I've been going Deathcap > Seraphs > Void Staff > DFG, just getting DFG for the CDR. Wondering if something else might be better than DFG, though.

Need help coming up for a replacement on grail for the top yeti

Tried chalice/SV, but it gives no damage, chalice/haunting guise, but no cdr. I was considering axing chalice as a whole but then mana would actually become a problem outside of laning. I'm willing to test chalice/morello's since it gives around the same stats as grail for about 200 more gold. Anybody have other ideas?

Uh, what's good with Grail isn't the AP, it's the combo MR+CDR+mana regen (for laning). Who cares about AP scaling when you've got so good base damage on spells you spam all day from your 40% cdr anyway?

I mean for Nunu top obv.

I don't think cleaver stacking on garen will last for more than a week

Also I could just buy grail anyways (as I do now), but the 30 ap nerf does feel bad, despite the combination of stats being great for nunu. It's still cost effective anyways since you end up paying 920 for 30 ap, infinite mana, and 5% cdr

People should be turning their Chalices into Mikael's and not Grail.

Doesn't give damage but makes your AD more or less unkillable, which fits with Nunu's function of making the AD spit out stupid amounts of damage anyway.
