I figured i'd rotate the daily champ and people would discuss it whether they've voted already or not. I guess i could remove them all and do it that way if you'd like. I thought it would just be a place to discuss skins in with polls for each champ accordingly, the voting is just a small part of the thread imo It's fine, set it up however you want. I'm sure that OP took a lot of time.
Im happy to change it if you'd like, was only 4 hours or so I stil lthink the thread will be ok though, discussion is discussion regardless of polls, and if im wrong, i pay TLers to keep it active anyway..kekeke.
I was planning to make a new poll and feature it (like annies today) for any new skins on champions. then i can keep the old one spoilered within the spoiler, so you have the old results and the new so to speak.

See, the trick is any time a new skin comes out he has to redo the poll for that champion. Those champions then become a point of discussion, keeping the thread alive. So long as there are new skins, the thread has some inflow to keep it going.

Yeah that! :D I spoilered all the champions and put a big bold message saying leave it so u have stuff to talk about now, but people will do it if they like.
But gosh darn that spoiler makes my thread look a hellaless impressive xD

Wow, So why is Aatrox still on the PBE? Can anyone explain to me how Riot hopes to balance this character in light of Fiora/Tryndamere?
He is not OP, just...the same.

my Top 5 Power Rankings based on how much they affect the game (in my subjective opinion)
1. WT/Xpecial - WT knows how to win lane and snowball small advantages and power spikes. He also has the mechanics to pull it off. Xpecial's game knowledge and experience keeps WT safe and enables WT to do his thing. Despite always drawing jungle pressure, they still stay ahead. Currently the best bot lane.
2. Dyrus - Extremely consistent and very good at teamfighting. He knows how to play carries as well as his traditional tanks and divers. Because he's often relegated to a supporting role, he already solid performances has to potential to be to elevated even higher. Currently the best top lane.
3 and 4 Saintvicious and Meteos - These two junglers know how to apply pressure. They provide the most jungle presence in the LCS right now. Saint and Meteos often secure 3k gold leads for their respective teams by 10 minutes. These two keep opposing junglers on tiptoes at all times.
5. Doublelift - Doublelift probably has the single highest carry potential in LCS. However CLG's reliance on him allows other teams to shut him down, and he's own personal decision making is erratic. His results aren't that great either (you can partially blame CLG for that). But he's top 5 purely because of his mechanics and his ability to close out the game by himself.

Meteos is going to be the new metric for NA Junglers.

The bar was pretty low. New jungle should benefit st.v a lot imo

I think Crumbzz was very underrated jungler last season. But Meteos is goign to be a mofo beast.

1 week till LCS!! Here is my prediction:
End of Summer Split we have:
1) TSM
2) C9
3) Curse
4) Vulcun
5) GGU
6) Dignitas
7) CLG
8) Velocity (sorry guitar!)
Playoffs:
Vulcun > GGU
Curse > Dignitas
TSM > Vulcun
C9 > Curse
Vulcun > Curse
TSM > C9
Baylife.
Predictions?
Also, how is Worlds gonna work?
Top seeds of NA, CN, TW, KR all seeded into quarterfinals. It's safe to assume all regions get at least 2 seeds (and KR gets 3). So that leaves 2 * EU + 2 * KR + NA + TW + CN = 7 teams for the group stages, which doesn't really work unless it is a big round robin where they do bo2 and take the top 4. I would like that and I think it would be the fairest. As long as they make the bottom 4 places different prize money, there won't be any meaningless games.

its kinda weird that this is the 1st time i have seen the LEAST number of updates on PBE patches, the new hero kinda hype up when its 1st announced and i read nothing new about buff/nerfs on the patches.

Hmm...
They added a draft pick on normal mode? nice, can see how it works while I'm still not 30.

Aatrox rant incoming 
+ Show Spoiler +Theres just something about this new champ that feels incredibly underwhelming at the moment. Not sure what's up with Riot and GA-like mechanics but this one seems like the most boring one of them all. I thought Zac was really good in terms of design with coherence to character, this guy just feels like a step down in every way. Lame character, lame design. Havent felt this way since Viktor T_T

@JonGalt: You forgot there is South America, maybe one team will come from there and we have 8 teams group stage. How is the price this year? Dota 2 has like 2 million for TI, I don't know if Riot can match that.

Was added a long time ago. I myself don't even bother to touch it. I mean the fun of normal is quick picks and get the game going. I am sitting thru a draft period in order to play my normals.
Just messed around with Annie jungle in some normal games, shit is OP if you can get thru your first clear. I mean the gank with stun is cruel esp when you are 6. I go 9/0/21 with MS quint and get the mobility boots, the little girl is FAST!

Does Riot even need to match it?

In S1, Fnatic won 50K when they placed first at world. While on S2 TPA won 1 millions, the reason for that is TI1 has 1 millions as their prize and Riot immediately match it.

Oh true true. Pain Gaming and necrosed fighting!!
I still liked the round robin bo2 instead of two groups with bo3, but that would be a lot of games so they probably won't do it that way.

No one likes Riot's new champion? :/
I've been working on an interesting champion design for a while, after I finish with it you guys can review it :3

Does it have % health, knockups, slows, a silence, an escape/engage, resets and manaless?
If so send it it to Riot, no doubt they'll find a way to make it viable. Surely such a kit would be balanced.

As long as it does % health damage, can spam all its abilities at all times without and real costs, and has some form of way to not die then it fits the current design of riot.
