I have been looking at PBE streams with Lissandra and my thoughts on her
+ Lots of CC
+ Good initiation
+ Decent damage
- High Cooldowns
- High mana costs
- Squishy
She scales very well with items and decently with gold. I think she would be great as a top-laner without multiple gapcloses/cc abilites, or as a support. MAAAAAYBE as a jungler, I don't know how her clear time is. Definitely not a strong midlaner as her range is super short. I think she's going to be pretty good and we might even see her be picked in tournaments soon.
Then again, pretty much the exact opposite has happened to every champ since like, Jayce.
I thought Nami was gonna be picked and banned a lot, thought KZ/Rengar were horrible, though Zed was pretty meh, thought Thresh was pretty lackluster etc.

damn aram maps looks really good

I'm sure it has been asked before but how many time of inactivity you need before losing LP on ranked and does it lower your ELO too ? I haven't played in 2weeks and I start getting worried since I'm almost at promotion for gold...

I can understand Nami, she would be pretty strong if bubble was just a little faster and the heal bounce worked a little better mechanically. I can even understand Kha and Zed, as no other real assasin had been really toourney ready before and people didn't really see the W max waveclear city.
but Thresh....you thought Thresh was lackluster. His kit is fucking absurd. Like one look at W and I was like WTFFFFFF. You are bad at theorycrafting man.
|
To be fair with thresh I looked at his kit's numbers, went into a dominion game for 5 minutes by myself and said "meh" because of how slow his Q was and how wonky his E was. I also didn't know his Q could be activated a second time to go in, so.
And Nami was also nerfed a LOT from PBE to live. They toned her numbers down, so yeah.
I also thought Syndra was going to be god-tier and op/rage inducing from how strong she was.

So I'm finally almost done with school and plan on applying to Riot. Is there anyone that works there that can give me tips/suggestions on how to get my resume in the pile that get looked at? I'd appreciate any help!

It honestly depends on the kind of work you're looking for. What do you want to do there?

I spoke to a recruiter who was working with them, and here's a bit of information that they don't put on the site. If you apply for a position, and then apply for another position before you are contacted back about the first one, your resume and profile goes into limbo and will not be considered for 6 to 12 months.
So if you apply to them, say, about a dozen times in the last year and a half or something, you basically screw yourself over and have to wait over a year to apply again.
Not that I'm bitter over it or anything.

I can't imagine any other queues having near the popularity of ARAM. Who needs Co-op vs. Bots anymore?

This is true about every company right? You should only apply anywhere just once. If there are additional positions that you are qualified for, they will contact you and ask if you'd like to be considered for those other positions (in my experience)
but yeah you don't want department A thinking department B is considering you and department B thinking department A is considering you at the same time

When I applied to Blizzard, I specifically contacted HR and asked this question. The representative I spoke to told me explicitly that multiple applications show that you're interested in the company more than a specific position, and shows favorably in their department. That was just last year.

Lissandra is redunkulous. First game, 17/0/5. Hue.
Billion high damage CC, an escape, built in Zhonya, spamable AoE and finally insane scaling thanks to kit and decent ratios. WP Riot.
A Trist with berserkers and zeal who ulted me away, jumped away and finally flashed couldn't escape me who only had flash up and tier 1 boots.

First matchmade ARAM, my shaco JitB steals a Kennen's kill and he becomes really mad and starts flaming and then stealing all heals and flames the whole game. Never happened before.
Matchmaking ruins everything, eh.
Oh WTF Lissandra is already out?

I think it's pretty common practice that you only send a company one application, otherwise it looks bad. Blizzard sounds weird.

Q (then she knocked me away, nova her mid-air), E travel, Flash, R, Q, Ignite and LOLs or GG was spammed by everyone on all-chat. 
She's hilarious to play, her kit seems really really really strong. Can't tell if it's just because if my opponents didn't know how to play vs her, but on the flip-side it was my first try with her too. She just seemed overwhelmingly strong, jungler ganking mid was a guarenteed summoner or kill.
I want all the new skins, they look so pretty! :D
