My friend and I have been using Lissandra support (Max W) with Quinn and Caitlyn. Makes it EZPZ to trade after 6, even before that her Q and W poke is nice. Her ult is a nice lockdown on the enemy priority champ. I think she functions like fiddle with a global taunt, everyone likes to jump on her after she claws in.

Sivir's free so I picked her while leveling a smurf (AD being my worst role by far, even had trouble cs-ing because of duo farmers and lack of runes x) ), enemy botlane was a beginner premade with a level 25 dude with runes playing Vayne. It's so disheartening how faceroll Vayne gets when somebody feeds her (a particularly ragey beginner Kayle with me, suicided thrice pretty early, at least once out of spite at somebody), she's got so much damage that being played by a beginner doesn't matter, when she's got her BotRK she's just got to pop ult and get kills in any lane.
I can only begin to fathom how annoying it must be at higher levels, when people actually have good Tumble and kiting mechanics and stuff. :| Glad I've been banning her for a bit.

Yeah Vayne is a regular ban for me now.
Fuck Vayne.

I think a problem with Vayne is not just that eventually she can dish out enough damage to kill anyone. I think a major part of the problem is that often times a team comp just can't kill Vayne. Vayne has enough anti gap closers and gap closers that depending on the comp, there are many times when a noob Vayne free farms into being able to take out whole teams. And since solo queue is chancey, theres many a times that this happens and then Vayne has the image of being ridiculous lategame (which she is).

Fuck Vayne. Just pick any high-burst low-range champion and laugh. Annie, Kayle, Ryze, they all forbid Vayne to do anything in teamfights if she's not incredibly fed.

Xin is pretty terrible vs vayne.Vi is nice.Real problem with vayne is she just gets too much shit for free.There is no other champ that gets so much mobility and damage just with abilites.Her range is supposed to be her weakness yet it isn't even bad.
|
why i got more xin games than u got vayne gg my experience is more conclusive
|
I think tristana might disagree.
|
Also, Vayne guarantees that she'll kill anyone within a certain number of shots with her W.
|
Nafta shows up to say Xin is bad the moment someone brings him up lol
|
If vayne just condemns your gapcloser what exactly do you do vs her?Considering how obvious it is it is VERY easy.Even if she somehow can't do it you have bork/tumble.
edit:Damn.I surrender this argument.I am wrong.You won kind sir.
To be fair xin is pretty terrible.

Vayne and Yi every game (sometimes both on both teams) when leveling the smurf makes for pretty dull games. Can't even try random shit, game's over by 10 minutes depending on whose got the most kills. I can get why the game is frustrating for beginners.

Now I want the list of champions that can't kill.

That person was Stupidity. Through all of the trials TL LoL has gone through today, through all of the Ohmwrecker hate, the champion theme discussion, even that really disconcerting nostalgia phase of those last few pages, we were losing our way. We were just wandering the forests of productive, informative, and insightful discussion backed up by solid facts, long paragraphs of reasoning, and even some small reconciliation between people arguing. We were off of our path, and we couldn't see the light. It might have been a good few hours before we decided to collectively hate something. Not until one man decided to shoulder the hate on his back and bring TL LoL back into it's Sports/Games-Subforum Promised Land. He'll take your hate. He'll take your pain. Because, dammit, Stupidity loves TL LoL, and he'll do whatever it takes to make sure the land he loves stays pristine and pure. So Thank You, Stupidity, from a typically passive admirer of your tear-enducing heroics for the sake of the thread. ... My posting quality has really gone down the toilet today :| EDIT: Oh rofl, I finish typing and there's a full page of buffer from that comment. You guys really smelled blood there, lol How many of us actually read almost all of this thread, skipping the occasional topic that doesn't interest us (for me, pro drama/team switches etc)? It's a fucking ton of content, I'm amazed at how many of us regular posters seem to be keeping up with almost all of it. I have every TL LoL GD subscribed and every morning, I just strat off from where I last left off. There are some threads, LR in particular (e.g. OGN) where I'll skip near the end just to check the results. But for the most part, I read it all. o/

From my limited experience with Aatrox, he excels against AD auto attackers. He has limited CC, so if the enemy tries to stand and fight, you will usually out DPS them with your ultimate. Played as and against Aatrov v Rengar and I feel like he (Aatrox) wins that match up.

I'm a masters level SC2 player trying to make the transition to League right now but am getting stuck with a bunch of idiots on my team every game. What I don't understand is how everyone is so toxic in this game. Even some of the streamers I see here are really stupid and make shit plays but won't admit them. Why is that? I'm stuck in silver right now because every time I die, my team calls me a noob and just AFKs or does something stupid. I can't play the champions I want to play (Teams won't let me play Karma, even though I've seen pro players pick her) because they just say I'm stupid and bad.
How do I get myself out? In SC2, it was always just me vs. the other guy. Here I have to babysit and take care of 4 stupid kids every single game while putting up with all this shit. All League players seem to be very toxic and it's just a very bad environment. I don't understand because these people are not only bad, but they can't admit their own mistakes, and they blame others. I read threads in this forum and the ones in the QQ thread basically sum up League of Legends as a whole. A toxic community full of toxic players. I know I'm better than everyone here, I just feel very restricted because others are dragging me down. I've tried watching some people stream, but there are rarely any good streamers here on TL, and most of them are toxic too. Even players like Destiny are what I consider toxic players. Why do you people put up with incorrect theorycrafting and just overall bad play and bad ideas?
What do you think? I'm sure others here experience the same thing. What do you suggest I do? the post and name fits so damn well. Perfect example of what I'm talking about. I'm trying to ask for help and I get this idiot berating me for no reason. Maybe being so defensive after asking for help is one of the reasons you feel like everybody is dumb and is picking on you >.> Honestly I've found that in most cases, what you give is what you get. I thought silver was a fucking den of vipers until I had an epiphany (aka playing Katawa Shoujo) and just decided to be a bro in game. Turns out that everyone is emotionally inconsistent and will, for the most part, match the vibe you set in game. Stop thinking "I know I'm better than everyone else here" because that's what everyone else thinks and it gets you absolutely nowhere. So having that kind of mindset is solo-queue suicide. TLDR just be nice TLDR Katawa Shoujo changes lives for the better <3 Honestly tho, I have noticed (and I'm sure my stream viewers have as well) a huge difference in my overall skill level and victory percentage based on my attitude. I'm pretty sold on the fact that this game is like 80% mindset at minimum, even with my last hitting I can win lanes and games when I'm not breaking my fist on the wall. Just gotta relax~ + Show Spoiler + Lilly path, best path.

To be fair xin is pretty terrible.
well you can get rapped in 1v1 but in teamfights assuming u got close to max cdr since your e outranges vaynes e and vayne cant b sure when you go in on her (usually you time it after she tumbles in to hit omething though) you get E R(if it wasnt used already) and 1-2 q hits before condemn lands and then you can either back off (E should have 3-4 seconds only of cd) or like flash in to hit the knock up and if she flashes away your e will be back up and next Q cd you can kill her
ideally you want ur team to follow up on the knockup and make things simpler if vayne is fed or somethign
xin isnt evne close to terrible wtf he's so fucking strong it doenst even make sense how much damage he does
keep in mind 40% cdr xin has 3 second q and e (if u hit all 3 hits of q) cd and q comes off pretty fast with W up (obviously q cd starts when you finish the knockup but 1 second knock up combined with your e slow usually enough to make up for that because ur e is 2 second slow and knockup is 1 second after cd starts) you want either randuins or ghostblade to counterbalance the op shit that is botrk
