Gragas is fine. Underrated as heck. AS slow not tied to MS slow is ridiculous since it's immune to the effects of Tenacity. Throw in melee base stats, free movement and AoE displacement and you have a really good champ.

Ive never used reddit in my life. Not for any game not just LoL.

I mean aside from the odd link on the forums etc.

Is it really that good a source of information on LoL / Esports? Should i start using it?


hell no. the vote system is straight up rigged so that it shuttles garbage to the front page, it's not a straightforward +1/-1 and there's more wrong with it than the 'obvious' stuff. Basically anything that takes more than a half second to process and consider automagically gets thrown in the dumpster because of underneath the hood stuff like vote quality being indirectly related to time since submission. If you read a subforum that doesn't allow images you just get the next worst thing which is sensationalism and puns. If you move down another moderation level which hardly any of them do you still have the pervasive problem that the voting system is an engine for confirmation bias. opinions most people don't agree with just get automatically hidden.

the issue you guys are discussing is not just one of community appeal and fear of reading, reddit is specifically geared to push low quality, fast consumption information that comes in tiny little pieces like popcorn. You guys are wasting your time trying to think about how you can make TL style content appealing to reddit. I can't emphasize enough how worthless it will be in gaining an audience.

Ok I'm having big issues with the servers right now and was wondering if anyone else was having them.

I will queue up for a game normally and go through champ select normally but during the loading screen it will say I can't connect to the server. THen after a few retries it might connect or might just load half way then force close League.

This only happens like every 3-4 games but it's fucking annoying because it's happened in 2 of my promo series games so far. It just started today as well.

I had something similar before, also without ever being able to connect. The reason was that my ISP sucks and apparently either something broke somewhere or they accidentally blacklisted the riot game servers (they were not really clear here, and they are lying bastards so i wouldn't trust a word they said anyways), which are apparently somehow different from the servers you use in the selection client.

Gragas, according to LoLking atm, is like the 8th lowest win rate % champ. Has he gotten nerfed in recent months? I just played a game with him and he felt the same as I left him. Is it more about the meta w/ the number of AD bruisers he is likely to face or something or has he fallen out of favor so just nobody plays him worth a damn anymore?


He's never had a very high winrate as far as I know. He's much stronger in organized play than in soloque for a few reasons.

1. He's got good burst but really bad sustained damage in teamfights, teams have to instantly capitalize on his combo.
2. He doesnt carry too well unless you get obscenely fed, you do your QR and that has to be enough damage to win the teamfight. If it is, great. If not, then there isn't much else you can do.
3. His barrel is relatively hard to hit, hard champs lose because the average player sucks (see syndra).


His win rate was insanely high after Riot foolishly buffed him like a year ago. It was when they made his E 1050 range and 50 mana. Then they nerfed it a bit and then they nerfed his ult too when the realized how good it already. I'll never say he's a godly champ because, as you point out, you get to Q+r (which is really good) but then his cd's get in the way and E'ing into the team is dangerous. It's just weird that he's not seen with a bit more success given that he really isn't that hard to play compared to some other popular champs (orianna, lee sin, etc).

he was good only because dfg was broken as fk and made every ap OP, he got nerfed on top of dfg being reworked and hes mediocre at best compared to other picks, even scarra says gragas isnt good atm

Well that and he got a brutal nerf to his ult CD, 20 seconds on the CD. That was what made him nuts, it was up all the time which made him impossible to jump (janna ult with incredibly damage every 30 seconds), and he could destroy every skirmish or teamfight. Also QR is one of best baron steals in the game.
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

There's a bug where if Morgana hits a stealthed target with Dark Binding, it doesn't root them in place.

There might just be a bug with stealth and abilities affecting stealthed champions right now.

This bug used to occur in the past and I don't think anything is in the patch notes.

Riot should make sure to test stuff that's broken before.
And perhaps include all changes in the patch notes.

Here's another bug. I noticed as Ori on Saturday that many of my autos shot after moving failed. I thought it was just a bug with the champion.
http://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1htlbg/whats_with_all_the_aa_cancelling_at_the_moment/

It's variable depending on the auto animation, but a bunch of ranged champs have a few frames where the projectile goes and you can still cancel the auto by moving. From spamming Ori games recently it's true that it happened quite a bit, I'd attribute that to her slow pojectile (it doesn't happen near as much to me with Graves, who has less AS and a much faster projectile, I just cancel the aa outright if I mess up).

It's different from you killing the creep and not being credited the last hit, which happens quite a bunch too. @_@

He is probably throwing time or something along those lines. Try making a picture of time, it is not easy.
