I like the +starting gold, but otherwise I agree that defense tree is better.

So there is what I think about Face of the Mountain (FotM for short? Hahaha) vs Talisman.

I think in an ideal situation, Face of the Mountain is stronger. For example, you are playing as Leona, your kog is fed, but your team has low peels and the enemy team has a lot of single target initiation/nuke (think vi + zed + ww or something like that). I think in this scenario the shield is a lot more appealing because your kog will get CCed no matter how much he runs.

The issue I see is can you foresee such a scenario which you win the game if you can protect one person? You have to decide very early in the game if you want to go that route, but the path is not always so clear in the first 5 minutes. Why not just go for Talisman which is far more versatile?

not sure to ask here but I didn't see a general questions and answers thread so I'm just using this. when I watch some pros when they level up they ignore the buttons that pop up on the bottom and the skills seem to automatically level up. how do they do this because I can't figure it out?

hope that makes sense

Best trick is leveling it up while stealthed for champions who can. Wukong as an example can take advantage of it.

you can rebind them
Also shift is smartcast by default I think
and alt is selfcast
might be the other way around

Oh right yeah..I used to use the ctrl to level up but im scared of making mistakes lol. Also smartcasting sucks ass too.

Just read the last pages talking about leona / dshield / targons. Someone said leona shouldnt be able to do anything pre-6 no matter what. Wut? Despite items the only saving grace of leona pre-6 is her W-E-Q combo with the bonus armor. Many other supports do alot more. (fucking thresh.) She's terrible at harrassing, is worse at exerting dominance in lane because you either all in or you get laughed at.

You want her to do less? :O

So it looks like Vel'Koz (aka Void Ray) is legit and Riot's started doing leaks of stuff related to it, based upon what Reddit has said/data mined.

You can do some fun stuff with lissandra as well. E through a dying creep to level up, level ulti and go allin. Most people don't expect this and can die pretty easily if they took a bit too much damage pre-6
