Flask start can be pretty good if you plan on winning your lane or losing your lane HARD. Otherwise I prefer anal bead start, into philostone. you're basically building your items backwards  | ||

Seems a bit to convoluted. I worry that we will suffer from over-saturation of games. Hopefully it doesn't turn into a SC2 scenario where everyone plays everyone every othre day and all the excitement is removed... | ||

That's awesome. Weekly matches and a structured tournament just like any other sport will be great for the scene. | ||

Honestly it's about game quality and everything being structured/organized well. SC2 had issues because it was different people running different shit at different times and making everything a convoluted mess. | ||

This may be a good thing though in that the S3 championships will be much more exciting for the general crowd, as they won't know what to expect. Most of my friends that play and watch the game don't keep up with the foreign scene. Maybe this format will give the NA scene some motivation to progress in hopes of beating the other scenes. From a spectator point of view, this serves to make the S3 champs a very epic/hyped event. | ||

The thing I really hate about mid lane right now is that with flask + pots/regen starts, it's almost impossible for a standard AP to punish an assassin early game before they get too strong to overcome (ie. Kass pre 6, Khazix in general, etc.) without outside assistance. It is incredibly easy for an enemy jungler to snowball an assassin mid just because of how safe playing an assassin is right now. There is almost no compensation for having ridiculous snowballiness. This sucks in particular for me because I excel at zone control mages, but I am utter trash at assassins. | ||

Top and Jungle are my biggest gripe atm, Jungle moreso. Double's gripe about ADC items is just personal to him. But he's right, there's a slew of nerfs directed towards ADC. It's pretty bitter to just tell him "adapt you trash". | ||

-Make jungle harder -Make junglers start with items which give no combat stats -Make jungle contain same or less gold until later game when everyone is taking it -Nerf oracles -Make wards super easy to get all these changes = weak junglers, not stronger ones | ||

ADC's have it A LOT better than jungle and AP casters so it's silly to whine about ADC's getting nerfs that he even admitted were necessary. I think the strenght of bruisers is a problem, not the "weakness" of ADCs. | ||
