its super obvious if she's going in and she probably does'nt want to use Q except if she's already at target so that just leaves E which is a short jump for a squishy melee | ||

So I don't know what tax heavy jungler friends wei is playing with, but I'd imagine most junglers are more than "30s to 1min" from hitting 6 compared to solo lanes. probably closer to hitting 6 with a duo lane. What? If you don't gank, you can easily hit lvl 6 before 7 minutes in the jungle with any fast clear champ. You can even cut it down all the way to 6:10 ish with some optimization. | ||

Lucian DPS is distinctly higher and more versatile when he's autoattacking. The trick is that, other than being exploded by an AP, Lucian shouldn't die in fights. No bruiser should be reaching him, so he should just be potshotting people. His ult makes sure that bruisers cant do anything by taking over half their health just by running. Lucian should be trying to bait out bruisers and damage onto him and then kite them, leaving them dead in the water after they've burned their gapclosers on the slipperiest of targets (this is why Lucian counters jarvan really, really hard. And Vi too.). The enemy team can't afford to ignore him or chase him, and it makes his damage pretty silly. | ||

She's still faster bootless than a good chunk of champions with t2 boots just by spamming Q and E on cooldown. Remember when Talon's problem was that "he deals too much AoE damage"? Even taking his max rank E into account and ignoring her ult's bonus, Riven has more AoE damage/ratio with her skills than Talon's single target damage (although his Q's total AD ratio means that he pulls ahead... till you add her ult bonus). Note how I said "skills", not "kit". Now add the passive. Also AD scaling shield. Also AD steroid on her passive working with lifesteal. Also 2 AoE hard cc. And she doesn't need vision for any of her skills. Why are you picking Talon as a comparison, because of that Riot statement? Talon's AoE functions much differently than Riven's(because you know, it's actually AoE, not tiny circles barely longer than auto attack range). Shadow assault has a 500 unit radius, Ki Burst has a 135 and Broken Wings 162.5/200(1st+2nd vs third hit) both with ult activated. Her ult is a bigger cone than Rake, but it's also an execute with not very good minimum damage(kind of why people tend to use it early on in activation to you know, execute the single target they were killing). Just because she has some AoE potential when positioning allows it, doesn't make her AoE a problem. This post is in no way meant to call either Talon or Riven good or bad, just discussing how dumb the comparison feels. | ||

lulu and nasus (just in general on your team) are also ways to deal with her. man that CLG reddit thread, I feel bad for Kelby, the market is there and the time window is short if he wants to make some cash is that so wrong? Redditors thing everything should be free to the point it's disgusting sometimes. | ||

The biggest fuck up with CLG is signing with Azubu where streams go to die. I think the opportunity to go hang with CLG for a 3 day weekend is really cool. $1k is way over-priced though, especially considering your travel isn't included. I'd consider it for maybe half that. But yeah, they could all be streaming and just make butt-tons. Why did they sign with Azubu? Did twitch not want them/vice-versa? | ||

That's why comps featuring lucian consider getting ahead a requirement, but really it's easy to get ahead in bot with lucian his Q and passive shit on most ADCs lol. | ||

Did twitch not want them/vice-versa? when you consider that food, activities (diamond bar is pretty close to laser tag!!! and who else knows what kelby has planned), probably tons of swag (i would be really surprised if participants left with anything less than a full clg wardrobe), individualized lessons, and a nice roof over your head (diamond bar is a nice neighborhood), the price is definitely not outrageous. the players might make a little bit off of this (less than they would have through streaming, no doubt though), but my guess is that CLG as an organization will probably gain no money out of this at best, and likely lose a bit of cash like, to a starving college student or a high school kid with no job, this is no doubt out of your price range. but for someone with basically any sort of job that wants to spend a little disposable income and support their favorite org, this is an extremely inexpensive (and super awesome) vacation | ||
