I think the first time I bought skins I bought many, but for the purposes of this it was Iron Solari Leona.

SO GOOD.

What do you guys think about Kayle support ? She can kit quite well, has a slow, a heal and her ult is sick..


Why would i ever pick her over lulu, for example?



Pretty much this. Kayle support is strong, but Lulu/Nunu/Sona is better. If you like Kayle, just play Kayle mid- Kayle is becoming a top tier mid among pro (even Korean) teams, and getting a lot of pick/bans. There are some pure AP builds out there, but a very common one is to build Nashor/Guinsoo's for the AS on her shred. They somewhat recently changed her E to reset her swing timer, which helps build shred quicker.

I haven't played Kayle in like 5 days... but unless the change was in those 5 days or your idea of recent was a year and a half ago, then no, they haven't.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

From looking at the numbers, i am not sure what to max myself.

On the other had, both of the other abilities don't have too good scaling, either.

They throw the lantern because it allows them to collect souls without exposing themselves to danger.

What is up with lux. People throw the shield like it does damage. I have had people run up to me toss their baton in my face and run away.

First bought was Masquerade Eve (along with Prof. Ryze) during the last big sell, but I used the RP we got gifted after the EU server split in summer 2011 on Exiled Morgana. It's not bad, but I prefer the color scheme from her classic skin, so...
I'd buy Tyrant Swain and Blackthorne Morgana if you gifted me RP to spend on skins exclusively, most of my champs I prefer the classic skin to any non-legendary ('cept maybe WW or Orianna).

Oh, that's good to know. o.o

Also Q first, just because dropping a pink in their bush, sitting in it and laughing as its active's mechanic makes them zone themselves isn't enough, you get to pseudo-nuke them everytime they try to get a cs while their own wave arrives and you've built up some AD scaling. 80+<souls> magical damage on top of ~60 physical damage at level 5? That's around 15-20% of their hp (before resists) and you haven't even used your spells or set-up a trade for your AD yet.

I misread "80+souls" as a claim to having 80 or more souls at level 5. I was absolutely mystified for a moment.

Lantern can pick up souls around it when you throw it out so that may be why you see people throwing it.

On terms of skilling him definitely max Q first your damage on his auto harass goes up nicely as a result and the active is one of the best initiates/teamfight abilities IMO. From there I find it depends on the game as far as what to max second. If theres alot of jungle fights or fights are long drawn out poke wars I'll max w, but usually I max E since the utility of a second pull/knockback is really strong combined with the fact it also interrupts channeled spells like Kat and Malz ults. Im by no means a great player but I played Thresh a ton last week and really enjoy how deep and complex his kit is

Corrected it. I don't remember how many souls I had that game, but on one hand it seemed pretty low as I ended up dying twice and roamed a bit to ward, on the other hand it didn't matter because his Q's passive damage is so damn bonkers. o_o
(Picking up 3 souls when you go near wraiths to ward the drake as your jungler kills them gives a warm fuzzy feeling though. <3 )


Also had a "great escape" run in our own base as 150 HP Jax + Thresh running from fed Vi + tank Kat, lantern + leap strike + counterstrike to prevent Vi from charging Q makes for absurd mobility chases.

The utility of a second pull/knockback is appealing, but you get all of that with one rank in E. Further ranks do not reduce the cooldown or improve the pull/knockback, they only increase the damage and the slow (by 5% per rank, which is extremely negligible). A Locket level shield every 10-16 seconds is much, much more useful.
