re: ranked teams season 3 rewards

Do you need 10 wins in a specific mode, or 10 wins with the team across modes (e.g. 10-0 3v3, or 5-0 3v3, 5-0 5v5).
Stay positive!

You guys realize Riot still uses AD to refer to the position, right? The marksman change only affected the champion tags.

Oh I realize it, but the linked article literally actually uses "marksman" to refer to slackoh's position.

Hey I'm not sure if I should open a new thread for this, maybe it would be a good idea, but I might aswell ask here first:

Are any TLers from Berlin, Germany active here? I wonder if there's any sort of public viewing going on for the S3 Finals

When the screen comes up that compares the players by position it still says AD. Must just be preference of the caster then, would prefer some consistency though.


Yeah, I'm not even sure they said marksmen every time, I just remember hearing marksman because it sounded weird.

Have you tried 21/9/0? That's what I normally run on all of my mids.

What runes/masteries you running?


Mpen/Armour/MR/MS for runes, I run either an offensive page or a defensive page.

You should rebalance your masteries a bit. The 9th point and 21st point in most trees provides a power spike, so having 8 and 10 in different trees is usually suboptimal.

This is a common 21/9/0 AP mid mastery page. If you really want, you can move the Butcher points into Havoc, but generally I think getting a few extra CS is worth more than 2% damage (20 damage on a 1000 damage combo). You can also shuffle around the armor/MR points depending on who you're facing (e.g., you'd want the armor against an AD mid or an AP mid that auto-attacks a lot).

Another common AP mid mastery page is 21/0/9, sacrificing some tankiness for longer blue buff and more mana regen.

When playing Swain I like taking the brute force mastery too, since you tend to auto a lot when trading, and you're also pretty reliant on autoattacks to fight people pushing you with spells, so every bit helps. I don't take Spellsword because of it (needs 30 AP to beat a point put in brute force instead, 60 to beat 2 points; obviously depending on your marks your magic damage is actually reduced less than your physical one).
Maybe I could drop a point from havoc to spellsword.

are there any test which compare dmg difference between 9-x-x vs 21-x-x masteries?
i feel like ap portion of 9++ masteries arent particular good, +6ap and 5% ap doesnt seem like significant change compared to what defensive masteries provide

I feel like we've been through this before.

Havoc is amazing on APs, Sorcery is terrible. There is a reason why they've said for S4 they're buffing Sorcery from 4% to 5%.

Very few AP mids where I'd prefer 3% CDR over 2% damage.

Early game 2% damage is going to be better (autos), and late game you're either a mid who maxes out on CDR with items or is more concerned with damage than CDR and that's why you're not building CDR.

What is everybodies obsession with Havoc being bad, it's almost the best mastery in the offense tree and we've mathematically proven it several times at this point.

You're not just getting +6 AP and 5% AP.

Assuming you go for the +6 AP over 2 AP and 3 AD (which I like a lot more on most mids, maybe not like Karthus or somebody), you're getting +6 AP, +5% AP, 5% of your AP on autoattacks, +2% damage, and +5% damage on targets under 50% HP.

The +5% AP stacks multiplicatively with the +30% on deathcap, making it 136.5% total. The +2% damage stacks multiplicatively with the +5% from Executioner, making that 107.1% total.

You also get much easier last hitting early game. Assuming you have 50 AD and 20 AP at the start of the game, going 9 in offense and taking Butcher you do 54 damage to last hit a minion. Going 21, even if you get 6 AP and not 2 AP and 3 AD, you do 59. With the 3 AD you do 62.

I do think the defensive tree is overall a little stronger than the offense tree, but you get way more than just 6 AP and 5% AP in the bonus stuff from offense. If your role on the team is damage, you should be building to do damage, in general.
