To check whether he can use constructive criticism instead of passive-aggressiveness at least when he knows his spot on the team is on the line? To check whether he's so much better than the other guy that his attitude doesn't even matter? | ||

Depends how much you value 5v4ing the first 15 minutes of the game. If you're playing a champ that can't early gank, and doesn't build feral flare, then yeah, you're shit out of luck.

Well, you can't deny that FF widened up the jungle pool as well, with stuff like Twitch, Yi, Shyv, Jax, and more Noc. It was nice step forward for jungle pool. | ||

Certainly it did aid those junglers, but I think it made them viable in an unsustainable fashion (which we are seeing as a result of the nerfs). Part of it is because it caused a huge schism between Pro play and SoloQ, and part of it because the item was so strong that it let priority 4 champions beat priority 1-3 champions in duels, which caused unteneble splitpush advantages. I.E., its fine if your toplane Jax requires my Toplane to stop, but not really fine when your jungle Jax does, unless that jungle Jax is actually a priority 3 champion (but thats not what FF does). | ||

I would say more FF jungle does end up being priority 3 champs, difference is they're giving up jungle farm to the jungler, rather than laners past the midgame. | ||

I've been playing solo q again and it feels fine. Soraka is pretty toxic but if you have her banned, summoner Heal isn't that bad. | ||

At least oddone was the an obvious weak link, xpecial carried them to keep NA #2 spot like 2 weeks ago. Xpecial was 2nd best player on team behind bjerg... | ||
