The point of having a condensed roster Is you have champs you are competant , so that eventually you will have experience In 99.5% of possible lane matchups, barring something weird like a 3v1 lane. It also Is cheaper In terms of RP or IP, so you can spend your money on more rune pages and/or skins. To me, having 3 champs I'm good at for each lane/position Is what I will shoot for, at least until I know for certain what role I will want to play, so I can focus on widening my champ pool In that role.

That'd be so sick if so. I work in E-Sports, we don't have direct deposit T_T. But I do have paypal!

Since its a serve card, you can use it to do a lot of cool things. Here's what I plan on doing

1. Load up all my mail in rebates onto Amazon payments.
2. Pay myself with Amazon payments to get the RP rewards on my serve card.
3. Buy 10 things on 10 different days at Walgreens.
3. Withdraw my remaining balance at an ATM
4. Deposit cash into my bank.

Net effect: no more random rebate gift cards, free RP.

Word from the Korean forums is that Samsung Khan will create a LoL team, although there is no official statement, yet. They had to jump on the bandwagon eventually.

Any stuff on this or just regular standard rumors?


Looks like there's a news embargo on the matter but Garimto, the coach for team alienware accidentally leaked the info.

I found out for me the best way to gain elo is to duo with a lower ranked support, 1st pick his support since you are always 1st pick when you duo with sb lower elo than yourself and then being able to lastpick/counter their mid. With this I am almost always able to dominate mid hard since I got the better pick and people are usually lower elo since my partner is lower elo too.

With my mid champion pool of Ori, Kayle, Akali and Panth I am always certain to get a good matchup mid and the team is usually happy when you firstpick support.

One rule is to not pick a playmaking support, where the support has to make the plays since my partner is usually the lowest skilled player in the game, Sth like Sona or even Soraka works best.

Only prob is to find people, who like to play support every game vs better players.

Ofc bot lane will not win their lane very often, but still a somewhat fed adc is usually not that big of a problem in the midgame, when you have a strong mid hero yourself.

On the topic of heroes roster:

I try to avoid top and support, since imo top is where the most knowledge is needed for all the different matchups, when to trade etc and support is just boring for me.

Mid I play mentioned Akali, Kayle, Orianna and Pantheon. When I have to pick first not knowing their mid I usually go Kayle or Orianna since both can do well against almost all mids I feel. Long range mages are a problem for Kayle, but she can still farm and you typicaly outscale them.

Adc I play Kogmaw, when they dont have to many divers, Ezrael or lately a little bit of Corki, when I have an aggressive support.

When I have to jungle I go Nasus or Eve.

So with the thrown in Sona for support, I have around 7-8 Champs that I play on a constant basis. For me personally that is a good number to keep my level of play on a good level.

Thoughts on why jungle Alistar hasn't made a resurgence? I've been messing around with rune/mastery setups and his speed doesn't appear to be the issue it once was.

Way more wards available with the common openings doesn't make it easy for him to gank, especially since he'll be expected to, even at level 2.

Champion Roster:
Top: Chogath
Mid: Chogath
Jungle: Chogath, Hecarim, Jarvan, Amumu, Trundle, Sejuani, Rammus, Eve, Nunu
AD: Nope
Support: Everything (Zyra is my worst)

EDIT: Still waiting for a Bro'Gath skin.

Alistar jungle is still bad-ish because
1. Missing headbuttverize combo sucks
2. Strong big minion + weak small minions means Ali's passive doesn't help clear that much b/c he'll be stuck smacking the big one for several extra hits. (Haven't checked in awhile, basically same thing for a lot of AOE junglers)
3. Incredibly blue dependent
4. Sightstone
5. Apart from being a great tank with his ult, the rest of his kit is pretty meh. No real hard engage, heals for a minimal amount. Can't assassinate, etc.

There should be a preference to lock the free champion rotation out randoming in modes that aren't auto-random.

That seems like a problem common to any jungler that can't completely bypass wards (SEE: Nasus, Elise, etc.).

Yeah but like Nunu, Alistar is a champion who has to make stuff happen early because he doesn't bring nearly as much as others in teamfights or later in the game (note: Nautilus falls off super hard late game because his cc isn't as strong as that of Sejuani/Zac and he has no damage to speak off, but it's still not as huge as Alistar).

I think it's more the fact that Alistar's jungle clear is pretty slow even by today's metric. He's also a terrible duelist and prone to counterjungling. On top of that, I wouldn't give him the edge in early 2v2s especially when J4 and Elise see so much play.

Iunno if I agree with that. Both Nunu and Alistar are quite strong lategame and in teamfights. Nunu gives your AD carry a free PD, has excellent peel, and forces the enemy team to cc him. Alistar is like the Yellow of supports; he's great at peeling, but is second to Janna. His initiation is decent, but is also second to Thresh/Blitz.

Nautilus is great lategame. He's very similar to Malphite, except he can run around, smack enemies once and root them and has a half-hook.
