Click the part that says "For further explanation of the rules..." - teams had to be created by Dec 21 They already have a team on the ladder. So they are free to move around and join the same one.
"Team rosters must be submitted prior to the advancement of the team into the Online Tournament, after which the rosters will be considered official and cannot be changed. The roster must identify the five starting players and up to four designated substitutes. "

Is it just me or does anyone else wish they would increase the health required to create a black bar in the health bar to be like 200 or even 250. 100 just becomes absolutely useless after about 10 minutes.

Unless I'm mistaken the reason Yi became the original dunkmaster was because of this video. + Show Spoiler + Holy shit. You could get to lvl 2 from double golems in S1? Wow.... You also couldnt level 2 off of red. It put you just short. i remember that never made sense to me, since i know you could get lvl 2 off blue but never red. always seemed weird

It was because shaco was such huge BS in s1
|
In s1 I remember hitting level 3 with Shaco by doing double golems, Red, and Wraiths in less than 2 mins
|
Finally got a mid that went WotA when I also went WotA with Jungle Akali. Got up to 109% spellvamp lol. Was a fun game, got caught one time 1v2 and came out with more health and killed them both.

I sucked at it. It was really hard to pull off cuz you needed to box properly every single time.

My go-to season 2 Shaco strat was doing both red and blue buff at the same time.

What is the current penalty on dodging in ranked again? Is it still just the time penalty or is it back to the elo decrease or is there something else now?

Edit: Moral of the story, gift center is my favorite LoL trolling tool. Poppy legit ARAM tank. True story. Oh I bet, but he's never played her before and will probably try to build damage haha.
I have a record of like 20-2 with Poppy in ARAM. Only games I ever lost were two games with horribly stacked teams.
I don't even build tank... Just triforce into Resists and BoTRK - Finishing with more damage items if the game drags on.

It makes complete sense. Hypothetically, if 1900 elo players after 12 PM play like 100 elo cactuses of course it will be easier for you, a non-cactus, to hit 1900 by actually pushing buttons. Your allies will be cactuses too but you yourself don't become a cactus by playing at a different time.

Or maybe the 12 year olds that got carried to there just go to bed .

@Requizen taric jungle
I jungled taric quite a bit in normals and some ranked and solo queue in S2 jungle. I found that if you got a kill or two and didn't die (taric never dies) you can rush a 15-16 minute trinity force and beast with that, and just then go all tank items and abuse the heal spam with max CDR when you get the -3 second per auto hit you heal so much and for 330~ each heal. You go spirit visage+frozen heart and get blue buffs early if you can. Just regular tank items if you do badly early but I find you're not more than a really fed support taric then, which is still strong because people focus you when they shouldn't. I also ran ghost smite because flash on taric kinda sucks when you have no reliable slow or gap close.
However, it's dead in S3, it was already really slow and it's just too much now.
@gtrsrs amumu is brokenly op in this jungle, dunno whatyou're on. Maokai pretty meh because all he brings is CC it's good to gank some lanes but there are better champs later. Naut for example I'm liking right now. Mundo op as fuck, skarner seems decent but prolly not that competitive now with the flash ult and shield nerfs. Udyr will be fine probably once they buff turtle shield back but the item nerfs did hurt him and the 3% MS from initiator he lacks a lot too. You kinda need a lot of farm a bit more now because of the resists nerf. They should just give him 2% ms on his passive every stack or 1% even. The cost effectiveness of turtle shield and his passive plummeted when resists got nerfed and the dodge got removed and turtle shield got nerfed but at least they're buffing it back.
Udyr doesn't really have a problem with random lists of champs. I even saw cass in there ? Cass isn't good vs udyr at all udyr good at sticking no her and tanking her damage and if not being able to 1v1 her being able to chain a kill with someone else easily. The kitey guys you have to deal with it's mostly about having an initiate on yourteam,all the tenacity and speed you buy is enough against CC.
Udyr is kinda the same as he always was, in that you need to get really farmed to be useful otherwise you're just worse than a cc based tank and most people don't know how to get farmed from the jungle. And he's hard as fuck to play if you don't practice him a lot because you can't make any mistakes because you have no burst or gap closers everything needs to be calculated because of how long it takes to do something.
