Reached a somewhat high elo.

Shen left open quite frequently.

Is this real life?

Even in competitive play Shen has gone from insta-first-ban/pick material to sometimes even being ignored completely. How fickle you are FotM.

Riot is ok with their sever, really, after playing on CN I know I will be grateful if I got Riot to host the server.

There were people dropping out / lagging in games pretty much all day today, though it seemed the minority of games / people.

What runes/masteries is everyone running on jungle Zed?

Edit: Also for skills, E>Q>W with maxing Q>E>W?

Your standard AD runes should be fine Arp-Armor-MR-AD
Masteries are 21/9/0 or 21/0/9

And with jungle Zed you should be maxing E first.


Thank you!

For Zed, maxing E in general just seems to be optimal.

Beyond today, I can't remember the last time we had lag this bad. Lag hardly occurs outside of patch days.
What's your example for QQ'ing about Riot and the servers?

Against alot of top laners maxing E decreases your chances of safe harass in lane. Eg Darius, Cho etc. I experimented with both and I like the range and damage of Q more, and with W it does a fair amount of damage too. Just need to experiment a lil more with E though. Meh

That's true, I suppose, not a lot of champs want an extended trade with Darius.

On a side not, PL's Ziggs looking strong. Kobeeeeeeee

So here is a real question:

When do I start saving smite? I understand that like, If a buff/dragon is gonna be up within the CD I should keep it (early). My dilemma is once Baron is a real possibility. He tends to sit on the board a lot more than dragon, and on some junglers the buff camps are so slow without smite, plus the extra gold is nice.

because it happened that one time

It's sooo short ranged that i would feel really uncomfortable maxing e first in any lane, pretty much regardless of any damage or utility differential in terms of maxing e vs q.

always... if the camps are so slow without smite that it's hurting you that late in the game play a different jungler D:, or build sunfire, or something...

Basically once the laning phase ends. At that point you shouldn't need Smite for buff camps. If you need the buffs then you're a champion who is capable of taking them quickly without help or Smite. If you don't need the buffs your ally who does should be there from the get-go because it's stupidly dangerous to take them alone against smart opponents.

That's not to say you should never use Smite on camps past the laning phase, just that you shouldn't find yourself crippled if you feel you need to sit on it.

Jungle Hec. sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo fun wtf. I'm still doing pretty relevant damage despite doing full on tank/support items.

Not sure exactly what to build on him though. Been going Spiritstone-> Sightstone -> Glacial-> Kindlegem -> w/e is appropriate. Maybe throw in a Bruta in there earlier? Seems like maxing CDR is pretty efficient on him.

I feel like GolemSS and Frozen Gauntlet is core on Hec.
