The choice is do I want a better teamfighting champ or a champ to stomp my lane really hard and end lane phase quickly while their adc is burried at 0/5/0 and 30cs behind. Cause honestly, when I play duo q we always go for all-in lanes like taric graves or leona graves, and I want to play some ADC too, and my duo q partner only really plays taric as a support so I need an aggresive ADC, draven being quite retarded during early game makes him my favorite with blue buff it's actually more like 5 seconds as long as he's hitting his q's lol. | ||

I mean, I kinda like RobertxLee, but other than him I never see some great ADC/Supp streaming I live in GMT +1 tho, so that might explain a bit, but still, it really feels like half the streams are Top laners ( Hsgg, Voyman, Rain man, dyrus, wickd are the big ones ) and then there are mid laners ( scarra, Plord, salce, bjergsen, froggen ) Is it just my lack of streamers knowledge or is it really a problem ? Spellsy is a good support player and he posts here. Doesn't usually have many viewers but worth checking out imo. And for ADCs Rekkles is pretty good. | ||

Nasus was one of my first champs id like to revisit him Revisit him now, before they fix it! He's so much fun to play :D On another note, the more I think about the whole placement matches thing, the more I'm convinced it's actually just meant to be a system that feels more fair than the previous advancement non-system. Before, when you were at 1499 Elo or something, your next game was *really* important-- it was pretty much make or break for gold. Now when you're up for advancement, you've got a bo3 to prove you've got what it takes instead of having it all ride on that one game. | ||

Yea but if you go 3-2 when you're at 1490 elo you're going to hit 1500 elo anyways. Also I don't think I've ever seen a streamer get 46k viewers before. I thought the 20-30k oddone has gotten was ridiculous enough. | ||

Wil check out because support and because TL  Forgot about Rekkles too, ty :D I love how there is a secret hidden LoL community with actually decent players, great theorycrafters ( Yango = statsman bruno of TL LoL ), famous peeps on reddit ( shakedrizzleeee ), you guys have like a ton of potential. Also I wanted to say that NeoIllusions work is really great and much appreciated, really deserves more props | ||

Also, it lets them make arbitrary changes to the rating system they use behind-the-scenes without messing with people's ratings. That means we might get something better than Elo for MRR-- especially since Valve has said that Elo/Trueskill isn't a good enough rating system for mobas! :D | ||

If you max Q for faster stacking then your ganking suffers as does your general clearing speed. Maxing E first made sense back in S2 when AoE clearing was absolute, but today the small creeps are practically bumps in the road. I don't want to make definitive statements as I've yet to have an opportunity to test jungle Nasus, but my suspicion is that there isn't a significant speed difference between maxing Q or E. Regarding ganks I again don't want to make definitive statements, but you still get half the Armor reduction with only 1 rank in E. I don't think having a stronger, better stacked Q is a bad thing while ganking unless you never catch your opponents (in which case they're not likely to have been stuck in your E very long either).

So if you have rank 5 Q you get (AD + 110 + 3*Stacks) * 2 damage on a crit, rather than (AD*2) + 110 + 3*Stacks. | ||

Would be pretty hilarious to not see Nasus for like 30 minutes and then he comes barreling out of the jungle 1 shotting people. Kidding aside, I don't know if low clear speed is as detrimental as we're making it out to be. I want to fiddle around (or let others fiddle for me) with clearing routes and skill orders to make it less of an issue. | ||

Fruitmarket and me talked about this the other day. He still argues for e max, but now with all the small creeps being so weak you can put just 2-3 points in e and end up clearing nearly just as fast yet end up getting more q stacks. Granted, you're trading more armor shred for more q stacks come midgame. | ||

Or, in simple english: just put enough points in Q so that you can get the CD low enough to last hit shit with it. I dont know how many points it would take to be able to effectively use it in the jungle, but there is a good chance you may only need level 2-3 Q in order to max out your ability to farm with it. | ||
