after a few games on braum I really like him. I could see his passive being a balance problem.

Having been part of a community splitting up from a mother site, I can say: don't do it.

Not really ignored, just not unexpected. We don't put out enough content really to justify a front page slot, and I still remember what happened when we got a slot of equal importance to SC2 and dota2. A ton of people were asking wtf why is lol here noskill game gg, and how do I hide lol, fuck that game, why is it here etc, and IIRC not a single warning about that was given. Pretty much shows where high level support is for LoL(neo + a couple others, and that's it) It's not the worst thing ever, people can think whatever they want, but until they've played each of the games at a high level(or at least LoL+1) they don't understand just how skill each game requires. I've played DotA2 since the very first days of open beta. I've been playing League Of Legends before DotA2 release and now I've switched back to LoL (like 4 months ago) and I have to say that I like both games BUT I do enjoy LoL more. Probably because they're still adding content/new champions into the game so it's not getting boring after 2 years of playing the same over and over again. Are you not into hat religion?

Well, yeah, even if Braum's passive wasn't that easy to stack by himself, pair him with Caitlyn and see people get zoned for awhile everytime you hit a Q. Oh, and Unbreakable does block Nami's bubble. Braum will be stunned though iirc (I asked specifically for these kinds of hovering skillshots in the thread put up after his reveal, and they said that even if a projectile would be dodged (Ziggs Q, Nami Q) blocking them with Unbreakable willmake Braum eat the effect for the sake of consistency and not being too "free").

The generalist support discussion is really interesting. The Old (or continuous hue) Zed / Kha'Zix / Elise problem is coming to bot lane. It's not just supports though. Current ADs are showing signs of a problem too. I mean, Lucian fits into every comp and is strong at all points in the game.
This is a bit rant-y, but the amount of band aid fixes and glossing over of inherent problems is starting to get really annoying in this game. Penetration, mana, mobility, stealth, lack of support for older champs is all very frustrating.

Isn't Braum suppose to rek faces with Lucian? Lucian passive adds 2 stacks to C.Blows am I rite?

I played couple of games with braum on ranked, both of them vs leona bot, I had no idea what I was doing but we were winning the trades even in the game where I had twitch who obviously was inexperience in playing adc, had no idea when to fight and when not to, still we won most of the trades and took several kills. However, Braum abilities don't look op to me, perhaps the numbers are in his favor cannot say, but the skill set is all right, he has strong and weak points.
p.s the most awkward moments with him were when you protect your running adc and people flash over your shield and you walk backwards after them with the shield pointing in the other direction xD
p.s.s another awkward moments were when I manage to engage the enemy with either utli or q+ walking or flash whatever, and then i use all my abilities on them and start autoatacking but at some point I realize that my W is unused and my thought process was I have to use all my abilities to win a trade where enemies use all of theirs so I jump back on my adc letting the enemy team to disengage easily xD. Only after the games I understood that I can use W on me and its not necessary to jump on someone to have the ability spend xD
|
A dilemma I have with Braum is what to max second: W or E, people say W, but I see that it scales with % of armor and mr Braum have so I think late game where you have more armor mr items it will shine best, while using E potential earlier
|
Please max Braum's E second. Take a good look at his numbers on LoLwiki and it should be obvious why.

I still remember stuff like joining a pub server and playing like god for a few rounds before getting banned(lol 23-0). Memories of charging up cs_italy hallway in 12v12 with 3-4 shields leading to protect our AWPs and stuff like that.

cs_italy, good map. The one I always hated was train and nuke actually. Aztec was fine, both dusts too. I remember I've started playing WC3 mod maps and I've lost a shitload of hours leveling to 10 every single class, lol.
BTW shouldn't be Braum top totally legit?

Zion seemed to have a lot of fun with it before he got drop-hacked when I watched yesterday. He was against a Kayle, 1-0-0 with TP down and level 4 when I joined, he only had neg+ruby+pots. He walked away when she tried to harass him, till she got close to a minion, then he'd W to the minion, E for the MS, auto Kayle, Q her (or Q then run for an auto during the slow if she stayed away from the minion), and she'd use Q and W to run away while trying to kite with autos. He'd win the trades but stay pushed.
Then he tp'd bot and they got some kills, he was 2-0-3 or 2-1-3 when the drophack occurred. The Scarra Malphite mid + Braum gank on HSGG's Xerath was hilariously brutal when they walked back from bot.
There was also a 0-7 Braum or something (jungle or top not sure) on Scarra's stream just before, but the game seemed to have snowballed heavily against his team.

Braum feels pretty OP based on my limited first hand experience and what I saw on streams.
His laning phase depends on an adc who has the tools to proc his passive, which limit his useage. His teamfight is absolutely absurd though.
