Why is corki a bad roamer? If the lanes you are roaming to have some sort of CC it seems that corki brings enough burst damage to be useful.

Urgh, this time window where Corki is just starting to get picked so there are people who know how strong he is, others who don't, and it's a lottery every game because if your team doesn't know (and it's soloQ so you can't tell them, they'll tell you off) and he's on the other team you better shut him down before they get the opportunity to suicide thrice in his midgame.

Think I'm going to switch my Vayne ban to him. Way too volatile till he trickles down enough and gets figured out.

I actually think corki is stronger mid than he is botlane. He's bullies hard, has great waveclear, and scales really well off of levels, as well as being almost ungankable.


no kill potential and shitty roam

fun 1v1 vacuum tho

He doesn't necessarily need to roam though. You could just pick him into a non-roaming mid, and just have the constant 1v1.


ya but no one plays those anymore

Orianna and karthus still come to mind as popular farming mids

Yah but they have kill potential, and Ori has somewhat of a roam while Karthus doesn't really need to. Corki isn't going to wombo combo anyone in lane, unless they were just poor at dodging rockets and too dumb to go heal. He'd still push them out and kill towers like a mofo, though, and doesn't make your team as AD-heavy as others would if your team was running 2x adc. I'd prefer a corki mid over AD Ez

Oh, I wasn't comparing Corki to Ori or Karthus, but I was talking about possible picks that corki can do fine in lane as.

I'd say roughly 50% of my games in mid are vs. Zed/Ahri now.

Not that I'm complaining, I've been practicing Lissandra and she appears to do well against both. But it's getting monotonous.

I prefer mids with better teamfighting but that's just me.

I kinda like Ahri, both being with and against her, but that's because I'm jungling a bunch atm, and she's both an aggressive laner post-6 that pairs very well with Vi (my main), and pretty easy to bait and kill if your laner has some cc on top of yours to pin her down till she's dead once she's burnt 1 or 2 ult charges.

Then again from my experience laning against her Gold Ahri(s) do way more mistakes than in other match-ups (and she's way easier to punish than something like Lux or Zed) so maybe I shouldn't be able to get them killed so easily post-6.
Fizz is a bit of the same. Fizz vs Zed is actually a great match-up both ways when you're jungling something like Vi: high kill potential, bait and outplays opportunities, and both snowball pretty hard in terms of camping mid some then relying on them to help one side lane while you camp the other or just straight-up 4-man dive bot. Most important part is to be there at the right time, and to manage to bait the other guy (that part prob wouldn't work anymore if I managed to climb back and get Plat).
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.

Every pro mid started picking her in LCS, might have something to do with it.

1. She has been played a lot at progames over the last weeks.
2. She's decently strong in most matchups.
3. She's fun.

About 3 times at my league I've seen Caitlyn picked vs Ahri and every single time the Ahri got absolutely stomped. I also cannot recall a time when an Ahri actually carried the game, unlike multiple cases with Orianna for example. Ahris tend to do bad / mediocre most of the time. I feel like as she's very skill-based people probably should reconsider playing as her until around plat level, depending somewhat on the person. I believe that she needs to be very active early on and have pretty good communication because I don't think that she is the best choice for AFK farming, even though she is one of the most difficult champions to gank.

I ban both. I was sick of playing against them before the summer, and I'm still sick of playing against them.

Fortunately, both Annie and Viktor can do fairly well against Ahri - I just don't want to deal with her and I don't trust people not to feed her when she inevitably roams.

mid corki seems pretty good at cleaning stuff up for a triple or a quadra if you follow the opposing mid/jungler bot and get there fashionably late when people are low but the fight isn't completely decided yet.

he might not have the best mobility while W's cd is still high, but his waveclear is as good as it gets and he does massive aoe damage in any kind of midgame skirmish. if you get where you need to be on time for those first few semi-teamfights your impact on the game can be huge.

That's pretty easy to say when you don't


I've lead a WoW raiding guild while holding a full-time salaried position. I did that for roughly four years. I meant what I said, and I know what I'm talking about.

You were still just playing a game. Perspectives tend to change when you start getting paid to do something. Brains are weird like that.

My guild was playing the game, I was leading the guild. If you want pressure or a perspective shift that's it right there, and I'm not about to write the dissertation required to explain how radically different WoW is when you're the one in charge.

It's fair to point out my future wasn't riding on it, but that's true in this case as well. I've got my degree and 7 years of work experience to fall back on in the worst case. So if you'd like to see how I'd handle it, go kickstarter me a LoL-career.

But what of your real life friends Monte? What of your family and the outside world? :3


Friends...?

More seriously, my fiance is extremely supportive of my madness and was fully prepared to let me try and become a professional LoL player when I got laid off back in April. I decided instead that I wanted to get into game design. I enjoy playing games and attaining mastery of them, but not as much as I enjoy analyzing them, picking them apart, and building new and better things.

Nope. Just deposit $20 via Paypal or Amazon Payments.


Fair enough. What i meant was that getting paid to do something changes the way you interpret why you do something. Currently you have an intrinsic motivation for playing league "I play this game because I enjoy it," but after you start getting paid to play there is also an extrinsic motivation, "I play this game to get paid." Replacing intrinsic motivation with extrinsic motivation causes people to lose interest in the activity. This is especially so for people that originally had high levels of intrinsic motivation for the activity.
