[Patch 3.07: Nerf Everything Not Nami] General Discussion…

Xyph and I have been debating this one a bit. While I'm still considering a lot about MR (with Health being better, it does a lot to deal with many traditional mages), I think there's one definite problem at least; even if balanced, MR doesn't have any real big-ticket items to go "ya know, their Akali is really big and I need to deal with it" style items like Randuin's Omen.

So, we're still talking about the raw balance (likely at least close), but I do agree MR doesn't feel as good as HP or armor.

I feel like every NA pro is way too shy/awkward to have the kind of persona that FBH had.

Really? Ppl like aphro or saint dont strike me as shy or awkward... and certainly not ppl like prolly. Sure, I could never see the oddone or jiji doing it.

I mean, aphro seems chill IRL, so I don't think he would go out of his way to do a big ceremony thing... but that's not to say that I don't think he could pull it off. Like, if it was at Worlds or something, I could see it happening. Although, that being said FBH was a true master, so I don't think anyone could match his greatness, but that's not to say they wouldn't do pretty well themselves.

Was watching SSL early this morning; which got me thinking. WE NEED LEAGUE GIRLS IN BOOTHS (or behind the players if no booths). The real question, 1 per team? or 1 per player?

I raise you to Gaia the Dragon Champion. And hey, Jarvan riding shyvana is even partially lore accurate.

Elementz is now the Coach for Coast Gaming, who were GGU. I for one like him much more as a coach rather than a player, glad to see he's staying with the scene.

I for one am primarily happy that a team gets a coach. Hopefully others follow.

its hilarious the constrast between elementz and regi

regi is the succesfull skilled leader but everything things he's dumb because he's always like bro bro bro baylife
elementz is reasonably charismatic and speaks eloquently but he's relatively terrible but people like him anyway
think he'll make an OK coach, but who knows

What do people think about Morello's comments on MR by the way? Saw it on reddit here is the quote though:



Gotta say that I really hope they don't re-introduce FoN or some other big MR item. I don't understand why I keep seeing people bitch on reddit since, imo, S3 is like the best time for people who hated playing against heavy magic dealers since we see so many more physical damage based teams and Bulwark means that teams typically have significantly more MR than they did before.

'nother edit:
I mean, if the problem is that Rumble, Ryze, and Karthus are problematic and there's no good item to reduce their consistent DPS then maybe the problem lies with Rumble, Ryze, and Karthus not with a lack of big ticket MR items.
