But in any case, Lissandra didnt feel like she traded that well with most mids anyway while her roaming is amazing so that seems like a pretty worthwhile trade.

Oh my god wei2coolman your incorrect usage of semicolons in every other post make me want to punch someone.

... dont mind me im just an ocd grammar nazi. I probably have a problem if semicolons are making me rage more than anything else...


If you max E first you do weaken your ability to trade blows, and it's difficult to all-in them because you have to hit them with E to have any prayer of killing them. As a result, you generally only max E first when your best option is to outfarm your opponent and roam.

^^ that's a correct usage.

Not sure if WE really good; or iG and OMG choking super hard today.

Don't use semicolon if you're using a conjunction.

The clause "or iG and OMG are choking super hard today" is not an independent clause because of the conjunction.

You shouldn't use a semicolon in the quoted sentence; a comma would be the correct choice.

Just another day in TL-LoL GD.

@Grammar nazi's get back in that terrible blog about casters.

@XilDarkz - God forbid people who have free time to play video games keep up on their favourite forum about the game while gaming o.O right?

Loving the china bashing when they smashed everyone else in worlds / international tournies. They look bad vs eachother. thats it lol

The SDA marathon doesnt appeal to me this time, and ive watched them religiously since 2011 (?) the schedule doesnt have many games that interest me and holy shit they killed the "setup" joke completely with their shitty over-the-top anecdotes this time.

Will tune in for the odd hour or two and donate but i wont be falling asleep at my PC anytime soon supporting them i dont think :<

Wouldn't E-Max weaken your roam too? (again, reliance on actually hitting your E instead of just showing up nearby them to RQWQ?)

Edit:Look at me, leaving unclosed parentheses just after giving a grammar lesson. I'm good at this game.

well, this is the off season event, I don't think it's expected to draw as many runners as AGDQ.

Hi everyone, I'm a long time lurker on the site and finally decided to take the leap and join officially. Starcraft 2 didn't do it for me unfortunately, so I moved onto league. Started playing it this year. I am enjoying it, but I'm just a lowly, lowly bronze player. I play on the Oceania server, mostly in the mid lane with a bit of support thrown in for good measure.

I have a question about Hextech Gunblade. Is it really that bad? I want to buy it on some champs that could use the active and spell vamp (e.g. Cass) but the rest of the stats are pretty much wasted. Is it a noob trap? Being a noob, I'm trying to avoid as many as possible.

There are simply many better options for champions to get than Gunblade. It's a huge investment and you need to really benefit from both forms of vamp. The active is nice but no where worth it for the item cost.

Akali is really the only champion I'd actively advocate Gunblade on.

Edit: I missed that you mentioned Cass. She doesn't benefit from the AD or Lifesteal at all. wei2coolman covered the better options.


Ah fair enough, guess I was overvaluing the active. It's just such a niche (I knew Akali's get it fairly regularly, but that's it) item, wanted to see if it has other applications.

Thanks.

If you really favor slow on Cass; Rylais on her is very strong as well.


Yeah I already go Rylai's on her. Having started to play her recently, I wanted to see how many slows I could get on her for maximum kite potential, hence the Gunblade question.

I also learnt today that having Cass and Nami on the same team can be confusing in team fights.

There's no need for more slows; Cass get movespeed from landing Q's. She should be able to kite very well as is.
