Oh yah, it's pretty sad. The land is eroding so fast. The people here lack basic farming techniques so they are just killing the land with over farming/over grazing.

did anyone try to teach them to last hit properly and freeze the lane or not shove it too hard so as to miss waves? They should notice something is up when the other lanes are have 2x the cs

If you're going to get movespeed when not in combat in the ult tree anyway, is it better to get mana regen or mana pool in your masteries?

EDIT: getting summoner cd too, so only one is worthwhile.

Regen
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.

I love this thread. <3

Small town midwest represent! The mortgage for my house is like 60% of the figures you guys are throwing around lol.

Also, I've resolved to reach Silver before the baby comes. That gives me like two months. Currently Bronze 1 with 60ish LP but I get to play ranked like once or twice a week for a few games. Wish me luck!

Good luck!!

Also. Do people still play Darius? And if not (because ranged solos are all the rage), then do people play him in the jungle?

His base stats and ratios are pretty high, he could probably do well in the jungle as a tanky/CDR role and just spin, slow, pull, and dunk all day.

Yeah he does well in the jungle, if you go top they usually try to counterpick you, but depending on elo they will fail. I had a Teemo counterpick me top and he would harass with Q, which meant I could just run up and whale on him and snowballed because he didn't save his Q. Not played vs Jayce but I imagine its horrible, as is vs Kennen and like you said almost any ranged top. In the jungle he's good, can't snowball quite as hard but when he does he can make his presence felt across the map. I'd recommend ghost for the lower cooldown and it makes your ganks seriously threatening, mobility boots can have a similar affect. His teamfight is amazing if you can get a good pull, spin and then aoe like hydra or randuins active or iceborn gauntlet.

Professionally? He's super niche since his 1v2 sucks.

Just did the Jayce matchup yesterday. Went cloth5 ontop of armor quints and stalled the lane out. He couldn't do any appreciable damage on me but I couldn't force anything on him.

He doesnt get pro play probably because his 1v2 isnt amazing,, hes a great jungle imo. I play him a lot lately

Laning him vs jayce and kennen actually isnt too bad because their autos arent longer than your pull. So if they try to harass you just pull them and go allin. Jayce is worse because the knockback and safe farm ability, kennen really doable.

Thanks! I am definitely gonna try him in the jungle and see what happens. Sounds like a lot of fun.

Also, letmelose is translating a pretty cool AMA with DanDy the jungler of MVP Ozone right now.

Of course that's not specific to Darius, all melee tops have those same problems with Jayce. I hear he's getting nerfed.

In the first two tiers, my quality ranking of these masteries is approximately:

Summoner CDR
Item CDR (marginally situational, i may overvalue this though?)
Mana Regen
Out of Combat Movespeed
Max Mana (unless my name is ryze)

edit: it is, after all, the utility tree however, and so your choice boils down to which mastery gives more utility to your specific champion, pretty much. The only really clear-cut answer is that mana regen is generally better than max mana.

Regen


Mana regen is pretty much always better than max mana unless you scale from max mana. Health is different since higher max hp means you have higher survivability in team fights, but only if you REACH the team fight with max hp; i.e. if you are jungling 24/7 and losing health with no sustain, a health regen item is effectively more hp. (This was the philo vs heart of gold discussion as 1st jungle gp5 item.)

its more about all melee having big problems in general atm, 1v2 meta made them inferior in every aspect compared to ranged, theres a reason all u see is kennen, elise, jayce, shen top right now

University housing is the most stupidly overpriced thing ever, its more than a grand per month.

But srsly, lets all just more to Korea. Or Taiwan.
