That's super shitty. Of course she does. And btw, seriously, abuse her before she gets perm-banned/nerfed. She's getting another buff from what I've read, increasing a full channel tornado knock to 1 second from .75. You think she's that strong? Seemed kinda meh after last round of nerfs. No one channels a full tornado for the knockup so its not even a buff, except marginally possible in lvl 1 fights where you full channel blind into a brush. I guess its also a buff at levels of play where people can't dodge the most telegraphed skill in the game. Huge buff to those ninja side brush tornadoes lol. Can't you hear the tornado? I don't think you can ninja it. Don't actually know, I listen to a lot of music while I play. Low Elo people probably wouldn't notice anyway lol.
Edit: Seems like you can hear it, so not much of a buff lol.

TBH I am only half sure as well. Brush mechanics in LoL is extremely buggy and weird. I really want to test this someday.
Pretty sure if you go look Cinderhelm's videos, he has demonstrated that Taric's E and Katarina's R will ****SOMETIMES**** reveal you in brush.

Is anyone else getting multiple lagspikes on euw where you stop moving but you can still see what everyone else is going normally?

How do people feel about PBE changes? Elise nerfs were deserved I guess because Riot likes to nerf pubstomping champions. Still feel kinda bad that stuff like Elise/Darius gets nerfed while champs like Akali or Renekton remain untouched.
edit: Also another Garen nerf for some random reason, and a buff to locket's cost efficiency/nerf to its' total stats (because junglers weren't building it enough already). Stuff like this + release BC/BOTRK makes me wonder whether Riot thinks about its' balance changes at all.

I don't think you can ninja it. I can't name a single person I know that plays with League unmuted. So I think its very easy to ninja tornadoes. Unless we're the oddities.

I feel like we are really missing a golden opportunity to derail the GD thread. Someone also saw radish and mentioned oddish. Have we done the, what pokemon would users be yet?

Uh what.
I find sound to be very useful. It's easier to hear something coming than see it.

I personally used to play League with both music and the game sounds. Game sounds in any game help a ton, but music is always nice too.

Hmm, also with champ remake they should make a lore change explaining champion change, or something. That would be a more elegant. As to why champ fighting style change and what not.
lol, watching voyboy making hashinshin sooooooooo mad. funniest thing ever.
HNGGGG, just watched voyboy dodge zed ult with rappel; then juked by jumping to minion across from wall. (the ulti would've killed him). Gosh, the plays.

Also, the new system where AFKers causes the champ select to dodge at no penalty for everyone else is awesome. Much needed.

I'm not following the discussion at all.. But I'd like to jump in here.
However I think your confusing what slut shaming is
Maybe I missed something, and someone called karma a hoar because of her outfit, then your correct.
Portraying every women in league of legends as a sexual object that is not Annie is not a good thing for the game, while its fine to have some hyper sexualized characters if it fits that character but, there should be a balance, just like in real life, and league has not found that balance. (it's so far from that balance it's not funny )

I hope the new Karma is more support than AP Mid.

Or they could go the other route and make every male look like tryndamere. (And with some of the new splashes, they appear to be going that way)

A lot of riot's decisions with regards to character model proportions being kind of crazy is totally justifiable. Because of the perspective players have, the relatively small size of the characters onscreen, and the game's fast action certain features need to be exaggerated to really read in-game-- including traditionally feminine features!
So you know that's totally reasonable and cool but WHY does this feature exaggeration also carry over to the characters' concept art like constantly WHY was THIS + Show Spoiler + was EVER considered even remotely appropriate concept art for the character? It blows my mind how so many artists at riot can constantly be reassuring people that they'll be toning down the over-the-top-female-sexiness in the game, taking actions like removing playfully suggestive animations from the game, and then all of a sudden a robed, well-dressed female champ gets changed to... well, who really needs more than a lioncloth and corset, anyway?
Why does this keep happening? Like, the people working at riot are pretty fucking smart at this point. Is it just that they're really afraid of releasing a female champ that doesn't catch people's attention, and feel they need to make them sexy to accomplish that... for the billionth time? Some kind of related business concern? Why won't they, like say that if it's the case? I really hope it's not just something in the water there!

that's why the concept art was skipped; though I do think the armory/weaponry on that concept art looks better than how she looks now.
