1. Axe the health (hue), and make it a liability to buy (maybe replace the ruby crystal with another longsword)

4. Make sunfire capes stack
5. Completely neuter the item like they are doing it on the PBE

For now though, if you're not playing malphite, it's pretty unrealistic to get levels of armor that actually do anything vs BC LW. Better to just stack health items in all honesty.

garen can get the levels of armor. so can jarvan. Garen has an added bonus of being able to make BC effectively.

Jarvans armour boost isnt actually that big because his base armour is really low to compensate for his E passive. Also stacking armour on him is dumb when you can get BC like everyone else.

Garens one of the few ppl who might get away with it with randuins/GA/Sunfire as a god trio against AD assassins.

So I noticed there's no Elise thread - what's the protocol for starting a champ thread? Should an accomplished Elise player create it or can I go ahead and make one if I keep it updated with experienced player's feedback?

I think once all of this black cleaver nonsense is over Elise will see some popularity. The spell pen changes and the addition of Iceborn Gauntlet have helped her out a lot.

i was gonna make one but if you want to go ahead

i'm not that good so who knows if people would listen to anything i say.

i think she's still good even in league of black cleaver, she can dominate lane phase hard but it's very difficult to team fight with her. she's really squishy so you have to choose the right moment to dive in or you can cost your team the fight.

The protocol for a champ thread is ask Neo (make sure no one else is doing it) -> draft thread -> get Neo's approval.

Though I can tell you right now that FakeSteve is already working on an Elise thread.

Yea I just posted my Volibear thread like a BEAST

p.s. I can give some insight on mid matchups to whoever is doing elise thread, but I've taken a break from playing APs till the next patch so my experience is limited with new items

On the subject of what NOT to do with a champion guide OP:
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=387290
I am a bit amused how my 'last word' post makes it look like I locked the thread rather than Neo or another mod doing it. Now I'm just annoyed how he was taking feedback on the guide, but completely ignoring the "please write your guide on our forum instead of just giving a link."

As long as you're willing to update your OP with advice from other players (especially good players) and not fill your guide with advice that won't work at upper levels of play, it doesn't really matter if you're low Elo writing a guide.

That guide was so bad for so many reasons anyway. it's hard for me to comment on what is good for FIzz atm because he sucks in the BC frenzy enviroment but that guide was not what I imagine it will be when thing settle down.

tbh my main problem with it is if you want to write a Fizz guide w/o matchup info don't even bother, like 90% of playing Fizz is the matchup, not weather or not you rush Lich or not.

So long as your thread isn't bad that shouldn't be a problem.

1. That makes sense...but the health isn't the issue.
2. Passive and CDR for sure.
3. Indeed, but still not the problem.
4. ?
5. The PBE item is not terrible. Armor shred is just incredibly strong now.

Champ threads are mostly for the sub-plat population anyways. Don't worry about trying to teach high level players new things.

Who needs a guide these days anyways? Here's my guide to playing effectively post patch all summarized in 8 lines for people who need build orders.

1) Find a champion that has physical damage spells.
2) Build a Black Cleaver
3) Do you do enough damage yet? If no, build another Black Cleaver. If yes, build another Black Cleaver.
4) Does opponent now have 200 armor? If no, proceed to 5. If yes, proceed to 6.
5) Build Black Cleaver. Go back to step 4 upon completion.
6) Build Last Whisper.
7) Build Black Cleavers until you've maxed out at 6 items.
8) If Black Cleaver count on your team > Black Cleaver count on enemy team, then victory. Else, defeat.

Here's my tier list as well:

Tier 1) Champion utilizes black cleaver well? If yes, you go here.
Tier 2) Champion utilize black cleaver somewhat well? If yes, you go here.
Tier 3) Champion has little synergy with black cleaver? If yes, you go here.
Tier Shit) Champion has no synergy with black cleaver? If yes, unfortunately you're worthless.
God Bless

Should I get Talon while he's on sale? Is he awesome now?

I want Talon to be awesome, but I'm scared and need a hug.

Talon is awesome, he always was. You just have to embrace the fact that you're playing a champ because you like it and not because it's some skewed bullshit or FotM like Darius, Anivia or release Jayce.
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.
