What is everyone's opinion on riven in this patch?

Passive change was a damage buff, makes it worthwhile to use ArPen marks on her. Other than that, no change. They failed to make any change in itemization worthwhile.

Her itemization didn't really feel awkward or bad anyway. BT, sometimes BC, defensive item (Randuins and Runic are my favorites.)

Dont diss Skullclamp! I had lots of fun drawing my whole deck with any deck taht included it be it affinity, goblins, elves... xD


Skullclamp was banned from standard for a reason. Everybody either ran it or had to prepare to play against it, but that's not why I'm posting.

In the LCS we are seeing a lot of lane swaps, mostly the red team sends their duo lane top and gets golems, with the top laner going to the bot lane. The way a lot of teams deal with this as blue is to 3 man dive around at 3-5 minutes. I was thinking if Blue team doesn't first pick Cait, then you could see Red pick the Caitlyn Lulu combo for their top. Then instead of sending a bruiser bottom, you send Anivia bottom. Her passive giving her 2 HP bars may be just what teams need to stop these early dives. If you sacrifice offense in the runes for stuff like AD reds, armour yellows, mr blues, and HP quints she should be able to farm under tower like an adc, but have an aoe stun, and be tanky enough to discourage the 3 man dive. This is all just theory craft, but it was something I thought of last night when playing Anivia vs a Nidalee/Caitlyn bottom lane.

Xin runs out of mana if you're spamming abilities on camps. Aside from his auto reset on Q his clear speed is not much faster than any other jungler with wriggles and aspd runes.

*edit - Sure if you take blue's Xin clears very quickly.

His first clear with blue buff is fairly fast, after that he usually has a point in W and 2 points in Q to clear fast. He isn't quite as fast as Vi, but frankly he is more than fast enough.

Should be maxing E not Q but yeah, his clear is pretty slow (i use the word "slow" because I'm too used to Vi's clear speed now) unless you want to spam abilities to clear which eats a ton of mana.

But once you get wriggles his clearing is perfectly fine.

Just remember that at low levels, your egg form actually has less Armor/MR than you do normally, so if they've comitted to a dive it's not much of an issue to burst it down.

Anivia has a resistances debuff at early levels with her passive, as long as you have some dps on top of your burst, and are coordinated enough to rotate tower aggro you will kill her, unless her jungler is here. She's still fairly squishy HP-wise (at the start at the least).

I'm playing Graves but that's because Vayne and Draven are too mechanically-demanding for me, I can't pick Ashe or Sivir early because they're too vulnerable to some lanes, and I stopped playing Ezreal entirely since he became popular (I was banning him just so we don't see him every game so... ). Maybe I have Trist too, but I'm horrible enough at last-hitting already without adding her E in the mix.
Learning Cait would most likely be a crutch because of her range, Corki I don't like at all, haven't tried Twitch yet, MF is FotM and I already see too much of her to add my play on top of it (I considered picking her when she was popular for her strong laning phase, in s2, never got around to it), haven't played Varus since his first free week but his model and the way he turns direction tends to annoy me so... I play Graves, suck with his low base AS esp. at low level, and try not to crumble in teamfights (his passive certainly is a crutch for bad positioning though).
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.

I think Anivia is similiar with Tinker from Dota. Glacial Storm (tinker's m&m) all day long baby. Push in if you can.

Anivia Pre-6 will just get trucked by a duo lane. Good luck last hitting at tower with that AA unless you are Froggen and Anivia is so slow you can't avoid harass, and so squishy you just die anyways. Probably don't even need to 3 man dive. Taric + Graves/MF/Urgot could probably do it on their own.

They can also just get the egg easy, back off and then you're dead whenever they chose to kill you? Without loads of mana and ult, anivia is pretty shitty for a 1v2 lane. You can send her to stop a team from taking the tower after she hits 6 though.

Picking specifically to defend against the 3 man dive means you need hard cc and ideally wave clear. So you pick a mana less jungler give your 1v2 blue and pick chogath for the lane

Something that would be interesting but probably not viable would be hp5 poppy. With runes and masteries and a 2 bead + pots start you can come into lane with 31 to 36 hp5 which goes to 80 with pots. With poppys passive that should make her a tough nut to crack

there are lots of AP champs that would do fine bot lane in a 1v2 on purple side that haven't been explored yet
looking forward to some ziggs, ahri, gragas, lux solo bot lanes by the second half of LCS

With Anivia I'm looking at the lvl 3 3-man dive. Between the wall to split them up, and the aoe stun, it seems really really risky. Say the jungler is going to initiate, but as he's going in one or more of his allies get walled off a bit. It just changes the timing, and the freedom to move around under that tower while it's hitting some one. One extra tower hit in the dive's we've been seeing have been the difference between 1 or more of the people diving dying. I think the stun, wall and egg can secure those extra tower hits. Going with a bottle opening can give you a little more mana and health to sustain until that 5 minute dive, and eventually you are going to his six, and have the opportunity to get blue and continually nuke down waves.

So you're looking at a solution to a very specific play that they are not required to do in order to make the 1v2 worth it and thinking it makes her 1v2 worthwhile overall?

I don't understand... Everyone is always going on about how hecarim is the best soloQ jungler and how he's such a good carry jungler but I don't see how? He does pretty much NO damage and his ganks suck balls unless you can come from behind.

Speaking of AP bot, CRS sent Jacky bot as Orianna yesterday in one of their scrims vs GGU, so theyre definitely at least thinking about it. Then again, saint jungled singed in that game so not sure how serious they were taking it.

Some guy on Reddit collected the data from lolking and made these graphs:

Yeah, this. Lux bot would be dandy, maybe Zyra too.
