Would ghost be imbalanced if it gave a resistance to slows?

Basically make it a nerfed Yi-ult.

Not complete immunity but slows on you are decreased. Probably nerf duration if this happened. Might help the bruiser being ineffective and could make choosing ghost more attractive.

Then again it could just completely break everything

Seems legit, it's been done in the past and should work okay now. The question is what is his niche over champs like Zed or another AD mid. Is is the physical damage, semi global presence or spell shield that we're picking Noc for?

I think this idea is worth considering. It would heavily depend on the level of resistance though.
Flash still too gud doe

Maybe they should nerf flash/jumps instead so that they are affected by slows (more slow = more distance reduced on jump)

The last two I'd imagine. Spell shield counters certain mids hard, and his ultimate is as good as TFs in many ways and better in some.

TBH, Mid Nocturne seems better with regards to sustain than most (if not all) AD mids.

His waveclear is not quite as a good as Zed's or Khazix's but it's probably better early on and might be good enough later. Plus, it doesn't have to be as good with regards to roaming. Thanks to his ulti he basically gets an additional 3 seconds of free clear time before he has to roam when the opponent's mid roams (or top and bot have 3 less seconds to react to a missing nocturne.)

His single target CC is slightly better (and honestly, that's what we want as an assasin right?)

But his burst is significantly worse.

Seems to me like he's a solid midgame-oriented AD mid.

So watching Snoopeh play Shy, just gotta wonder: what happened to lots of junglers running Smite/Exhaust? I distinctly remember it being a thing for a while on Shy, Lee, and the occasional Yi as well as a few others. Especially on champs that lack CC (like Shyvana), why did that suddenly peter out?

Don't know the answer. Vision creep? lots of vision => harder to gank => emphasis on counter jungling where flash might be more useful in case you get caught?

Also exhaust is strictly worse than flash vs all these new heros with dashes.

Spectating a friend at around Gold IV, the top lane has Quinn vs Vayne (and bot is Tristana/Thresh vs Caitlyn/Leona so "standard"). Made me chuckle. The guy who picked Xerath after Ahri was locked in made me cringe a bit tho.

(Actually a lot makes me cringe, Quinn maxing E and not buying any wards nor pots, Leona going EW and trying to lock down people with that at level 2, Thresh trying to 1v1 Cait when he's half-health and she has a big wave... )


I'd love to discuss this - maxing E on Quinn is THE way to go, here's why I think why:

Q increases mana cost per level, and has a higher base cost. Blind duration doesn't decrease, but the cooldown does.
E mana cost stays the same, with a lower base cost.
Both can be used equally as well defensively, depending on the situation, maybe E more so.

Damage ramp up on Q is higher, but E applies an extra hit of your passive. Quinn's passive is massive damage and easily makes up the difference. Maxing E allows her to wait for a passive mark, pop passive, E, pop passive for absolutely massive burst. Unless you really need the range of Q in your lane, I like maxing E, it feels much better if you're playing an aggressive dueling style Quinn, which is where I feel she excels.

I dont know i think people where hard on the new guy. While he came off a little brusque at first, he just wants to improve like everyone else

Honestly you can pick him (in solo queue at the very least, if not ranked 5) for his vision denial alone, it's incredibly disorientating, and in a spread out teamfight where your team splits up, you can't understate how powerful the lack of vision is. His ult is also significant burst when you build him full ad, so it adds a lot of literal paranoia for the enemy squishies

I concur. I'm not a fan of what he was saying either, but we were pretty rough. It's hard when it seems like everyone is attacking you. I hope he comes back and asks more questions because the more people we can help, the better.

Also, Req, with your new streaming fame, when you gonna have time to teach me Smite?

Probably because people stopped playing dragon bitch. Also flash is way better on Lee for da plays.

Mid Nocturne

He has less burst than TF and weaker gank assist in lane though, his ult also needs vision instead of providing it, which can make cleaning up harder. And he's a bit more predictable in that he only has roughly half the range on his ult, and can't really instaclear the wave (at least not until it's balled up, while TF can kill it while it's still aligned).

How does he work? Apart from the ganking, I mean. You try to tag the enemy laner with Q when he goes for a last hit and use the MS to catch up and fear him, with the spellshield used to deflect any cc/peeling thrown your way? Since he lacks a "true" gap closer I'm having trouble figuring how he kills his laning opponent (unless they somehow let him get into fear casting range).

Maxing Q or E on top Quinn.

But she was against a Vayne so the ability to blind more often to force trades seemed more important to me. Plus, if you max E you kinda rely on it for trading, and she was already ganked twice pretty early on by Volibear and bought no wards, so using E as your main trading tool feels pretty suicidal in this case. Made me puzzled so I deemed it bad.

Well, I would say that instead of TF, Nocturne has the pros of not being banned. lol

So it's CET -7 hours. Yeah, I don't think I'll be able to make fun of your plays with the rest, unless you play pretty late.
