D BLade start is viable but you have to consider your matchup and not just blindly buy it. e.g. I wouldnt go Dblade against a lulu/sona lane because one glitterlance or Q+powercord chunks you pretty hard and in theory you can heal up from hitting creeps yeah but the next time you get in range to Cs, i'm gonna all in you and kill/burn your flash. Against no pokey lanes it's def good though.

The Dorans start is good I think when either

A: You're confident your level 1 is much better than the opposing lane and you want to level 1 fight.

B: You're confident that it's going to be a farmfest, both sides are sustain lanes etc.

Lol I just noticed that lolking doesnt even have a section for nasus since so few people play him. that is so sad. Even karma has a section since she is broken in 3s.

He might be the only character with not enough ranked data to make a section for? pretty sure everyone else has one but i could be mistaken

Something other than http://www.lolking.net/champions/nasus#statistics ?

I'm probably weeks or months too late for this but I just realized that Lolking has guides now LOL.

Loving the layout, much better than lolpro, solomid or clg imo.

Also new PBE Patchnotes

I want to know if Sion is viable these days now that it's a healthfest.

Maybe I'll grab him and try him out for funsies.

Wouldn't it also be viable if it's like an all in lane you against. Something with Leona?

Could be, I dunno!

Health pots are just so good vs. dives early game, though.

my general ad build is boots/3 then 2 dblades and a zerkers then i get my BT. My friend who mains adc doesnt seem to get any dblades and probably goes for vamp scepter. To dblade or not to dblade?

I feel like this is going to come up a lot...I need to find Yango's post about it. Basically if you're going to get one dblade it's better to just open with it. Even if you use it to only last hit for three waves you're going to recover more health than starting boots + pots or vamp scepter. Getting a second one isn't really advisable now. Some people prefer starting Long Sword + 2 Pots so they can rush their Bloodthirster. Basically it depends on if you want to have a stronger early game at the cost of some gold or if you want to get your big item faster. Matter of personal preference really.

It's 3 minutes, not 3 waves. People are mis-remembering what I said.

But yes, the speed at which DBlade recovers health very quickly catches up to LS+2Pot or Boots+3Pot.

Vamp Scepter's low level efficiency is actually quite poor. The lifesteal on Vamp is fairly low value until your offensive stats start to get higher. If you compare the numerical value of the lifesteal given your average low-level AD, Vamp Scepter is giving only marginally more health recovery than DBlade for more cost, while giving no HP.

I'm pretty sure that the reason people go vamp instead of Dblades is cause it takes 800 gold off the BT price.

Also, is anyone else getting like, the worst teams ever in the history of LoL now that it takes wins in to account when putting you in to a team?

I don't think it's doing that till the next patch. Or it's counting all your wins total and not just your ranked wins.

I'm still getting ranked games with people doing placements even though I have over 100 games played this season.

Then explain why Korean/Chinese ADs go DBlade in virtually all lanes except certain 2v1s where Boots allow for greater suppression of the opposing 1v2 laner and sustain is a non-issue when they're not trading with you.

In lanes with high immediate damage, DBlade is superior because it provides an immediate 80 HP buffer.

In lanes where you need sustain, DBlade outperforms potion sustain very rapidly.

I've seen some really bad teams, yeah. More so than usual. People have been whining.

Also some troll pick Kha'zix then proceeded to spam nom nom nom like a thousand times. I suppose that's pretty much par for the course as far as trolls go though.
