Has worked pretty good so far, what do you think about my aproach to soloQ? Doing this every time I fuck up (which is especially often now that I'm training new champs), when the team does well they sometimes actually ask me to shut-up because I'm too negative for their liking. x)
if you ingame chat like you post on TL, I'd mute you so fast

Like QQ thread posts, or GD posts?
I'm pretty verbose, but a lot of it boils down to "My bad, <max 10 words saying what I did bad/shouldn't have done>".
Last game a Zac saved my ass with pretty smart play (didn't respect Evelynn's ability to camp super close and react to baits, but Zac stayed a bit behind expecting it and turned it into a 2 for 1, then later he "wasted" time trying to get a gank off and in the end I killed the enemy before he could get an assist), and every time he came by he just walked into the bush and recalled while I was shoving the lane. I tried to tell him to take some, not only to shove faster, but also because he more than def. earned it, but he just ignored it and backed.
Made me a bit uneasy, since people always sound divided between the "Laners bitch as soon as I take cs / Junglers don't know how not to screw the wave when they tax", and the guy's play def. handed me a free lane (which snowballed hard and gave us the game) but he didn't even dare to touch "my" creeps despite that.
Guess it's 'cause he has to have those "low expectations" about his laners' reactions too. :<

That thread in the SC2 section is exactly why I don't want TL to officially support LoL.
All the TL LoL players that are not a part of this community post like shit in that thread. I'd rather posters like that not join this subcommunity. After going through my BW elitist phase I realized that it is best to just not post in those threads lest I risk stooping down to that level.
Damn it, I just did. Couldn't stay silent any longer.

Watching CW running Kennen+Morgana in EUW Challenger. I remember why it used to see play, and black shield can help kennen stay inside, but I'm not convinced Morgana can stay relevant outside teamfight, given how skirmish-heavey most teams play.
Evil Geniuses ran Morgana (Zac top for Wickd) against Lemondogs in Week 2 IIRC. They won, I remember that much.

Not sure, don't get to see OGN enough to track it. Felt like LGIM2 tried to pick it away from him this morning.

(And perhaps even PE Jing's Lee.) Cris Riven; DL's Vayne (though I think it's overrated over his old s2 caitlyn play), Jiji's TF, nyjacky's veigar, etc etc.
Does Cris' Riven count? Don't think I've seen Riven draw bans in competitive unless it was against Zion or Mega. Seems like Cris is more known for his Elise nowadays.

Soo what's the general consensus on Aatrox? What matchups is he a good pick in, and which ones not so much? Any sick tricks or team util that may not be obvious?

Never saw him outside of ARAM.

One just got dumpstered by an Udyr in a game of mine recently.

So all this Karma talk has me interested. Anyone feel like posting in the Karma thread with a basic rundown on what to do with her?

There is already alot of new karma discussion that is still totally valid, they havent changed her except to just buff basically every aspect.
I'll post my general idea for her again for you.

I think he kinda sucks
His laning doesnt feel like anything special and while he can do a decent amount of sustained damage and can splitpush decently, he needs a decent amount of farm. On top of that, he excels in small skirmishes and against low cc teams, but in those situations tryn feels like a superior pick.
Hes still pretty new tho so he could simply just havent been figured out yet

Aatrox reminds me a lot of Maliken from Hon.
Other than that, i don't have much to say about him, he's just there. I am not sure he is especially awesome or anything.

I pick him top 9/21/0 with 2 lifesteal quints and rush sunfire
He's pretty strong if you build him like Shen (Sunfire/Randuins/SV) with a Nashor's Tooth. He loses to strong camp ganks like the xin who opened boots in the jungle last game LOL.

Okie dokie, this is semi-vague and hard to answer but I figure I might get a few decent leads:
I haven't played, well, basically any games since the start of March. As such there are a million patch notes I haven't read and even if I did I wouldn't remember. What major changes (that you can remember) have happened that are applicable to everybody? I don't expect to know the new champs/reworks/etc so I don't need to know who is ban-worthy, who isn't playable etc... more like items, changes to jungle, changes to minions/towers, things like that. Common starting items/masteries that are viable/good now too I suppose. Don't need a huge list, just the major/important ones and I'll be in your debt TL LoL'ers.
