Are there any recent tourney games where multiple lockets were purchased? I'm not making headway in the cost-effectiveness argument and would like to reply with an appeal to authority of my own. Thanks!


The EU LCS Qualifiers had a few, as did IEM Katowice (but only on GBG).

And I think there was mention of recent OGN games where that was utilized.

I didn't know there are people who are so negative to their teammates but simultaneously have a "never say die" attitude in-game.

Jungle Vi's early game gank damage is really gross. At level 3 or so she can burst about 60% of a laners health down in one combo.

Also, I find the people who shit talk the most are also the people who refuse to do surrender votes. I think it's because they're so self absorbed that they think they can turn a game around by themselves no matter what the actual situation is.

I get really angry when people vote no on surrenders when you're like 20 kills behind. I'll just stop playing to get them to vote yes, not surrendering at that point is just wasting everybodies time.

Don't know how you consider the spirit stone upgrades bad. Ancient Golem is awesome, I can get mobility boots while still having tenacity. It's really good for Nautilus and Skarner

mnnnenenen I don't like Spirit Stone nor it's upgrades all that much on Skarner, you still really like rushing Shurelyas, and for that you need Philostone and if you buy Philostone you don't want to buy Spirit stone

I like the Spirit Stone items, I just feel like overall they have a negative stigma. I usually just see players sit on Spirit Stone and never upgrade it.

I get kindle gem instead of philo. I don't need the gp10 and I want the mobility boots and ancient golem.

I tend to still build Philo's on supports. It delays the Sightstone a bit, but I feel like I have mana problems without it. Am I just doing things wrong?

I would like Wriggles / Spirit Stone upgrades a lot more if the end item on the chain didn't have the +minion damage and instead had more stats.

I think the issue with them is that by the time you're comfortable getting them you don't need that Machete bonus to clear camps anymore, so it feels like you're wasting gold value into passives you aren't using anymore.

Would be really cool I think if Machete was the starter, Madreds/Spirit Stone had stats but kept the Machete bonus, and then Wriggles/Golem/Wraith/Lizard lost the Machete bonus and had even more stats.

To be fair, Lizard Elder and Spectral Wraith were pretty bleh initially, while Ancient Golem stood out as being awesome. It's only after a few buffs that the former two have become definitively worthwhile (and even then the number of junglers who have use for Spectral Wraith is limited, which is likely why it's getting a sizable cost reduction on the PBE).

the only problem is ever since I adopted the never surrender in Solo Q attitude I've actually pulled several comebacks where I would have surrendered usually. People don't lie when they say every game is winnable, imo it's worth it even if it's only 1 out of 5 games. Like if you are really that far behind that there's no chance to win, the enemy usually only needs 5minutes to finish.

My jungle Fiddle approves.

Edit: You're right though, once the PBE changes to into effect they'll probably see a sizable increase in popularity.

Still 5 minutes of wasting everybodies time.

There are games where you're behind and you can still win sure, but there are also games where you're behind and it's blatantly obvious you can't win, but people still vote no anyway. It's rude to everybody else playing the game to make them sit through that.
