Varus imo. In pretty much every aspect, PD outclasses Hurricane. I think they need to lower the Hurricane price to make it comparable to not even PD but Shiv.

Edit: Teemo is probably best with Hurricane but I don't really count him as ADC. ;_;

OSL/MSL finals were usually limited by stadium capacity depending on what venue they used.

amazing how those things stay alive

Thanks for the numbers. 8500 sounds pretty small in comparison. o.o;

Old TL thread even has 200k LOL http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=48454
(100k more likely, though not for the one in that thread; more like the 07-08 finals?)
Just go google "proleague finals" in google images and you see some pretty crazy pics.

If you want some incidental AOE, Shiv outperforms bedcause it isn't wrecking your single target dps while giving you some splash damage to push/poke with.

Pretty sure JP is the sole person on earth "for e-sports", whatever that means. Everyone else just talks up their game and shits on everyone else, LoL players included. People like InControl and DJwheat are a dime a dozen.
Lotta respect for JP.

Pretty sure Hurricane is fine. It's just more of an AoE damage tool than a single target damage tool.

That's fairly counter-intuitive to what an ADC is supposed to do. You're spending gold for an AoE instead of more crit chance against a single target, etc.

You go Hurricane on AD Kennen for lots of stun powah

Someone in that thread actually counted the seat parcels(rows x columns) to get an approximate for the seating and it was in the 5k range. There's obviously no way that there were 95k standing(that would look like a huge music festival) on the beach. 8500 is a pretty respectable live audience size, think average division 1 basketball gym, maybe even a bit bigger.
The Apollo Theater seats ~1500 people, I'm sure you've seen it in some form of video(stand up comic, musical performance, something); so the finals will be a little less than 6x as big as that.

You're spending gold for an AoE instead of more crit chance against a single target, etc. Not every damage dealer needs to be a single target damage dealer. You put Runaan's on Kayle and her secondary targets take a .9AD ratio and additional magic damage. I'm pretty sure it's going to do more damage overall than a single target damager under ideal circumstances.
There are other AD's like Twitch who can make good use of Runaan's with ult since the Ult missile doesn't count as an auto so you can hit your primary target for a 1.5 AD ratio while ult is up.

Thresh dropped to 6.3k

I'm planning to do a bet with my friends to see if I can get 1200 ranked within 3 months from level 1 nooby who has never played a MOBA game before. its been a month now and I'm level 20 and doing pretty well (positive score in like 80% of my games at my level) and I learned all roles/know basic strat. I play maybe 1-2 hours a day give or take. Should I do this? I don't even know what to say... + Show Spoiler +Everyone starts out at 1200, lol. That's the baseline. Depending on how you do in your placement matches, you end up above or below 1200 oh I meant staying* cause apparently it was easy to go below 1200 after a few games? we didnt set a minimum amount of games to 1200 but it would just be seeing how I'd be doing at 1200 just in general (mainly positive scores) they're not really looking to win the bet, rather just have me improve enough to play with them at 1300-1500ish ELO
You gain/lose elo very fast when you start playing ranked (+/-30) before it starts to stabilize to the more normal 10-15, so you can in fact go down rather quickly if you're much worse than 1200.
