You don't advocate for SV anymore? Why, because Garen's dps has little care for the CDR and the spell shield > increased regen (esp. since your passive won't work in combat)?
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.

Well obviously you want a Haunting Guise ASAP. After that, I typically go for a Madred's Razors followed by a Runaan's Hurricane. What you build after that depends on the matchup; sometimes I opt for a Mejai's Soulstealer, other times I get a Twin Shadows. Regardless at some point you'll want a Tear, which is really good on him because you can spam his spells since he has no mana costs.


I think I've found out why you're stuck in silver.

i never advocated sv (cept vs rumble or whatever when it was still good and bveil wasnt)
it was a bad buy even at 20% cdr
cdr is mostly worthless on his W and R and mostly on E because the cd starts after spin ends. CD on q starts after hit lands and you use it to close gap so mostly shitty on that too


lol 20% regen on your pasisve
its like 5 hp5
buy 1 potion and over 20 minuets it'll be just as good

I liked being ward bitch in s3 but s4 support isnt' bad or anything. I'd say it's actually right about where riot wanted the role to be.

Eh. Good supports carry less hard now IMO. Part of that is the fotm champs, part is less ward domination, and part is that everyone Carries less hard because the game is less snowbally.

So you're saying my 80% (now 70% QQ) win-rate on Leona was because i got carried? I know i played bad people most of the time, but saying that I'm carrying less is a bloody lie, cus i hit most of my shit perfect.


EDIT: Which brings us back to what nafta was trying to say. In the d1-d2 area it portrays itself through hitting your shit, if you do it, people will praise you. At lower levels, it's just easier.

Yeah, cause my noob teammates never gank. I mean come on, how do you expect me to win my lane if my jungler never shows up? Seriously, Akali had to burn her ult in order to kill me.

bc/lw optional

bc is good lategameish especially, lw is good at any time but at earliest after your first tank item (usually sunfire/bv sometimes hexdrinker+giants)

Shiv is p good imo.

also does sheen work on garens Q?

I'm very disappointed in you, I was sure that you if anyone would appreciate the manliness that is IE Garen.

So I've been out of the LoL loop for awhile now, has there been a Ryze resurgence? The Rogue Mage is my one true love, played him yesterday and he felt pretty decent.

Tear got buffed and so did the range of his Q, as far as a resurgence goes he has been only been played by nien in LCS and later on it got banned against him. Besides that it's been quiet on the ryze front but that's the only games on the current patch with the ryze/tear buffs.

Not sure the Tear buff is a big deal. Over 20 minutes it's 150 stacks, that doesn't take long at all for Ryze.

With Banshee's no longer giving mana and Spirit Visage totally unappealing, I feel like Tear -> Rod -> Frozen (with Negatron somewhere for eventual GA) is the way to go now.

It was the first time I'd played him since the patch, not first time ever. We will be together forever...

Nah I think it's because you have been out of the dating game for a while now. Don't let the first guy you see blinds you, there're a lot of men out there with top quality, don't settle for less, especially 450lp guy.

Your Leona is probably good, buy that is an anecdote. Carrying is about exploiting the difference in skill levels between you and your opponent , and IMO in a Leona, thresh, Annie meta the stronger player can fall behind more easily with little hope of coming back (even making a good play if your AD is dumb) compared to zyra or Lulu where you could solo the lane for your AD, and come back from a cheesy play.

I think the Tear buff is pretty meaningful: Ryze is literally one of the worst champions in the game at stacking Tear, since a) he can't stack Tear without an enemy unit (unless you count his ult); and b) his typical spell rotation combos are too fast to fully proc the post-nerf Tear.
