Premades are such a plague. Having to ho up against 4-5 man premades when your team has a duo at most is such a damn nuisance.
Well, I guess it's not so much premades (sure, some are giant dicks abusing solos and trying to taunt them for it, but that's due to the people, not to premades) as it is Riot's matchmaking's "tuning", but still.

to be honest I play a lot of 4-5 man premades and when I do I almost always get matched against similar numbers of premades. So if you are getting up against 5 man teams when you are duo I promise you the system tried to find them someone else, I don't know what else riot can do, when my friends want to play and none of them are of the same skill level (it's all over the board) we should be able to do so it's not some malicious idea to ruin the solo que players day.

I'm spectating a game, and a Shaco just took 0 damage from a tower shot that definitely hit him (I rewinded several times to make sure that wasn't a visual bug) after a Deceived away from the tower. The projectile is in the air, Shaco deceives, and... takes 0 damage. Is that normal? I thought you couldn't pop projectiles anymore except with stuff like Zed's, Shaco's ad Fiora's ult, Vlad's pool and stuff like that?

Oh yeah I'm not saying the system doesn't try... but I'm under the impression that since it started taking the # of wins into account, it more easily tries to find premade whose general #of wins is closer to yours, than expands his search. Basically, and I could be wrong but I'm under that impression, it favors # of wins balancing over premade balancing, if it has to choose between the two.

I wouldn't mind duo or trio vs full solos (though I'd grumble a lot if the duo is my lane opponent and the jungler and I end up being camped by the buddies >_>) and actually being vs 5-man premades is super rare, but 4-man stacks when you have a duo at most, or 5-man stack at all feels really, really unfair, and makes playing against them frustrating.
(Fwiw I'm always playing solo except for rare cases, and over the last week or so about a quarter of my games were against 4-man stacks. I think that's a lot.)

like this.


I think he will have evolved forms like Pulsefire Ezreal does. Everytime he lvl's ult his form will change. First form will be some gooey thing sliding on the ground, 2nd form will be something with some features noticeable, maybe a horn and face etc lol. Last form will be the last picture they showed us where he looks like a human being.

Twelve is a character from Street Fighter: Third Strike. I'm assuming that's who Neo is talking about.

What does it do? Since the replays basically rolls out every action of the game, it just lets you hop in a game from a specific point in the replay, and play it out again?

Riot anthropomorphizes everything because it makes it easier, they say, to give champs character and make them relatable, an idea that isn't unique to Riot (publishers of sci-fi books usually insist on some human characters to guide the reader through alien universes). That said the dumb face on Skarner still offends my artistic sensibility.

Yeah, that's pretty much it. It's a really cool tool, unfortunately I feel pros in HotS won't be using it correctly. Too many will start at a point; and work on previous knowledge of what happened before, when in reality it should be used strictly based on the knowledge known at that point. So if a person didn't see the attack coming; loses, then uses "take command" in replay and reacts before he even had vision of the attack, it leads to false conclusions that he could have held off the attack.

Tbh, I only want to see take command for LoL; because it can strictly be used for practicing teamfighting scenarios.

Yeah, sometimes I wish I could practice teamfighting with some champ, or I just find it super fun... but then it requires me to be able to pick said champ (good luck with a mid or top), and the game not to end before the mid-late phases.
That'd probably also help a ton people working on snowbally champs to enhance their mechanics in case the more difficult teamfight stage of the game happens (not that it'll make stuff like Pantheon picked more, mind you).

When a player name changes, is there a way to figure out what their name was before without just asking them?

I swore 5 ppl on my friends list had a name change in the past 3 days.
