It doesn't scale with AP *by itself* but it scales with the ability AP of you *and* your allies. That's more than enough to compensate.
The only thing the changes don't really compensate for is that it lost a bit of cost efficiency compared to old old super OP DFG. Otherwise it does a very similar amount of damage to old DFG except with even *better* utility in a duo AP abduction comp.

How does the 20% damage amplification work with Eve's %hp ult? I assume it stacks multiplicatively? SHE'S TERRIBLE NO ONE PLAY HER In all honestly the only thing I'd change from pre-season 3 build is upgrading to Liandry earlier. MAYBE. Because that new DFG is batshit fucking crazy on her. It's a little harder now that Kage doesn't build into DFG now to save up that 1600 for NLR, but yeah. Liandry on Eve? F that, its a poke item, not a burst item. Get your void staff earlier instead - with the new MPen calculation, it should probably come as a second or third core. (guise + sorcs > dfg > voidstaff?) Get Liandry late, if at all. It just doesn't mesh with what Eve is doing (bursting the fuck out of some poor unfortunate soul + bursting team) Exploding someone and then exploding myself in a teamfight isn't the way to go, imo. I'd get the Void real late depending on the MR on enemy team, but I'd first throw Abyssal, Guise-->Liandry's and GA in there. Maybe even a Rylai's depending, but meh. With new DFG + Eve's already crazy burst anything else is overkill, and at that point I'd rather survive longer in a fight to deal sustained magic damage and/or chase down stragglers which Liandry's is amazing for. Guise and Sorc's into DFG might seem like the best course of action now that Kage probably isn't a good buy anymore (although Twin Shadows might be a niche pick on her if the enemy has a lot of damage you need to negate+escapes), but personally I'd rather have a Dring or two and a Negatron before trying to climb that 1600g gap.

Instead of being built as a solo item so you can 100-0 someone, it's now 'more' of a team item that you get the maximum effectiveness by using it with your team.

But the % damage is now based off max HP instead and they brought back the CDR. So what if it doesn't scale, now there are 3 AP items that give 100+ AP. DFG + Hourglass + Deathcap and you get 320 raw AP + Deathcap passive.

Jesus, going a block based mastery build is so broken. I went
3/3 hardiness 2/2 unyielding 1/1 block 3/3 legendary armor
and grabbed a doran's shield to start.
You can outtrade any autoattacker in the game so hard, irelia, jax, etc since their autoattacks do nothing.
Grab 2 points in perseverance and shrug off any damage that they dish out.

Jesus christ I can finally sympathize with college kids during finals week. So much work this week O.O.
Did I miss anything in MLG? Or did it just start?
edit: Ha, QT has been going bruta on absolutely every hero this patch. Seems Kayle is no difference.

Well they aren't supposed to do anything in the early levels when you start with your dshield anyway... Irelia is gonna be Olaf-like where you start warden's mail, stack some HP and she won't do much to you too, with the new Warden's passive. It's not as interesting as previously for most champs now though.
Btw, do you know if the new passive follows the previous one (debuff of the base AS) or the "norm" (debuff of the total AS)?
There was a pause so you didn't miss much Shake.

There was a pause so you didn't miss much Shake. This is why I love League tourneys. I can come an hour late and expect to not miss anything due to the inevitable pause or DDOS.

It charges Cait's passive in one shot if you stand in a bush. It applies Blight (Varus)/Venom (Twitch) stacks to its secondary targets. It applies Ashe's slow too if Q is on.
It doesn't work for Vayne or Orianna because their mechanic is based around consecutive hits on the same target, if you hit 3 at the same time you reset the count every time (it actually doesn't proc Vayne's silver bolts on the secondary target so she can keep them on the main target).

College in the US is post 18 after you complete high school. Its University basically, people just say college when refering to it casually.

Crumbzzz picking up Gauntlet on Amumu. :D
edit: uh, I'm getting confused between Gauntlet and golem. My bad.

Is chalice normal on AP teemo? Seems a bit of a waste.
|
He wanted MR against Elise. Also mp5 is good on AP Teemo because using his shrooms on cooldown is actually more mana expenditures than he can afford with his base regen.
|
Aww, it's just zuna subbing for dig. But crumbzz returning to jungle is :D
