I am going to play so much Support ZAC. Manaless tank which gets free health regen from his passive while having long range stun initiation, AoE % health damage, a skill shot slow and an AoE knockup.

Hmm: To buy Karma for free skin, or just save for ZAC

Karma is only 3150 IP, but they said she'd be on the PBE for a while so you probably have time to save up for both.

To counter the health stacking (that people are going to do on this champion)

Going to play Zac jungle, his passive looks great for sustain and surviving ganks, he has good mobility and good CC.
But oh my good his kit is so similar to Vi with what it gives.

I feel like a noob for asking but I never when to buy dcap when I mid. I usually play ahri and diana so I tend to rush DFG or I rush abyss if they have double AP or if I'm getting owned. It depends on the game but many times I feel even I rush DFG, I tend to buy abyssal. At this point since my play style with ahri/diana is kinda divey (all-in?) I usually buy zhyonas next for the survivability. At this point I usually only now consider dcap as my fourth item. I am wondering if this significantly hurts my damage/burst potential when I mid? I know AP tends to have their power curve shift to mid game so I am not sure if I am delaying my dcap too long?

TLDR: When I mid I usually get DFG, Abyssal and zhonyas as my first 3 items since they seem safer / more reliable. How much damage/burst am I missing out on by not getting dcap sooner?

Na, he's spell-reliant, Vi is auto-attacks reliant. He also has innate tankiness, which Vi lacks, and better ways to stick to people through his Q, E and especially ult.

His ult is an ammo-based AoE knock-up+slow, and depending on how it works possibly a dash (apparently he only knock-ups enemies when "taking off", if I get the wording right, though). He potentially has less dps than Vi (depending on cooldowns and viability to build CDR on him) but much more AoE damage + cc.
The guy has more cc than Maokai and Nautilus: AoE slow on Q, AoE stun on E, AoE knock-up->slow on ult. x)

Edit for above: Rabadon possibly beats DFG in a few edge cases for single target damage, but rabadon's better for every situation where you don't make use of the active (poke, AoE damage, dragged-out fights where your damage will exceed Doom's duration). If you get fed in the midgame with a champ like Ahri, you can easily build rabadon instead of zhonya because even though you dive, once you get out/run out of ult charges they'll be dead.

Edit² for below: maybe the servers are fucking up. Happened to me several times in those moments, I could even type but nothing would appear. It's not people not talking, it's the server failing to create the "chat room" or to display what's sent to it.

To the more experienced junglers on here...

What do you do when one lane asking for help is losing, and the other two are tied? I feel like an ass and usually get flamed if I ignore the lane getting stomped, and if I don't get another lane equally ahead I feel like I'm not doing my job. Specifically, when I'm counter jungling, I tend to get blamed for "ricing" despite having an advantage on their jungler.

When I play normals with my buddies it's not a problem and I can usually stomp due to lack of wards and map awareness (and the fact people don't ban Vi), but when I play ranked at like high gold/low plat I feel soooo lost and usually end up being a meat shield. Lee is prob my best jungle next to Vi, but I also feel that if I don't snowball or snowball a lane I get rolled. Halp?

If one of your lanes is losing hard, the best thing you can do is push the lane and take the turret. This frees up your laner to farm the jungle and push other lanes, but most importantly the enemy laner can't get farm and kills for free anymore.

So i'm beginning to realize that all of the mids I'm good at will get me yelled at if I pick them in solo q (Brand, Viktor, Veigar) and I literally can only play Cho top. My jungle/support/adc pool looks pretty good..what are three or four mids and tops I should look to pick up?

if you let people freaking out in champ select get to you it's going to be a hard knock life playing league of legends.
