At my internship they're teaching me a lot of SQL because half of what my department does is rooted in databases.
I've been using Microsoft SQL Server Management Systems.
I have the added benefit of having terabytes worth of databases to play with, as well as a few good programmers to help me out when I get stuck.

Get WAMP.
Basic SQL should take about one day to learn and a week to memorize. Advanced SQL will take substantially longer because syntax becomes precipitously less important than efficient design.
PL/SQL is my day job.

Hm so why does no one ever build Wit's End on anyone? I've heard that it's gotten terribly nerfed and so on but looking at its stats and considering the increase in prices of both MR and aspd(especially aspd), Wit's End has actually become relatively better than it used to be, especially after the MR buff. So what's the deal? Are the newer items just better? Or maybe because everyone goes mass HP the passive isn't that good ...
Plz don't report for actually talking about LoL.

It does a decent amount of on-hit magic damage, but there's better options generally speaking-- cost efficient, but not particularly slot efficient? Getting a recurve bow is kind of weird, dropping a whole 1k at once on attack speed. Instead, you could go for Bork which builds out of daggers.
Also, attack speed and mpen are two stats that usually don't go together. Some guys use hybrid runes, but its a little weird past that.
There's a couple guys I like it on, like jungle Cho. I play a pretty low-cost tanky/ support Cho with like Golem, Tabi, Aegis, Locket, Wits and wards. Doesn't really affect ganking power, and makes him a terror in midgame fights.

Blade of the Ruined King straight up replaced Wits End from what I can tell. I've bought it once in S3 and that was just so I could go quad null-mantle on Irelia v 2-0 Rumble.

Golem AND Mercs?
I always wanted to try Lizard Elder on jungle Cho (spikes proc the burn afaik) but it's been nerfed so many times now.

Plz don't report for actually talking about LoL. When I want AS and an on-hit effect, I think botrk; when I want MR, I think of hexdrinker or some pure defensive item like spirit visage. I barely even remember wit's end still exists...

woods, brain fart. meant tabi probably, haha. fixed it anyways. (edit: wow, i said woods, i'm tired)
i finish it off with a sv usually, though sometimes randuins and chug blue pots. i just realized this build (now) has triple kindlegems, im such a baller.
they do proc it, but all it does is make chogath a true damage monster (which really isnt as good as it sounds). i think adding wits or something adds more damage, the burn is actually fairly poor. i think wits is better b/c it gives a little tankiness, adds as much damage to his basic attacks and the increased speed/ap actually make his vorpals do more than they would with lizard burn.

I build it on jungle Vi whenever I'm not against double AP (I'll generally either rush it if fed, or go for aegis first in that case), and rather late (if I get fed enough I'll buy an early recurve bow, otherwise I'll sit on the phage/stinger/tabi core with a NMM if I need MR, complete a belt item (randuin's or mallet), and then finish the Wit's if I need more defense). A lot of games are decided before I actually build it, thus. On Jax I prefer SV because it gives CDR (reducing E's cd is so important to duelling carries lategame), and I haven't played Irelia in awhile.

Like the spirit of the ancient golem change. I always built locket after spirit stone, may look into golem spirit now that it builds out of a kindlegem. This also gives you more options for tier 2 boots since you don't necessarily need tenacity on the boots anymore. With the giants belt the build path was so bad. I used to finish Locket, Aegis, Merc threads and sometimes bulwark even before finishing the spirit of the ancient golem ( on tanky/utility junglers like nasus )

Apparently Ravenous Hydra's active procs BotRK passive effect and Black Cleaver in the AoE.. <_< So using the active also would apply 2 stacks of BC to everyone hit.
It's just something I've read and it tbh makes no sense, must test.

For those interested. I don't know too much about the scenes other than NA and EU but that looks like a pretty beast KR Allstar team.
Also, without watching vods or streams, how can I get more informed on the KR/SEA/TW/CN scenes?

With exception of assassins.

Well BOTRK stole its niche and is a better item efficiencywise and slotwise, plus it has a way better build path. Wits is actually really good though still just for its massive power spike at 2200 gold as opposed to 3200 for BOTRK, if you can just buy it decently fast its really freaking good, 350 gold for 42 magic damage is a fantastic deal, and stacked you get it more than free, its just a ton of damage.
I still definitely buy it if I'm facing a decent amount of magic damage and am planning on going more tanky (IE not going to invest 3200 in pure offensive stats) and can get it fast. Really good item just got overshadowed by BOTRK and its sexy buildup with cutlass.
mostly though people dont think about any of that, they just saw it got nerfed and never build it ever again because they are dumb.

I really think it's a scumbag move for an organisation to not cover the bills for players.
