I like when they demand wider auras, when the whole fucking point of the rework is the introduction of the tap mechanic. I'm just sad the "dream team" is dead now. sona, GP with zekes top, jungle taric. never again. RIP level 9: 75 AD for whole team. @neo, i've also seen maokai support a bit now too | ||

I played a MF/Janna lane vs Morg/Trist and Janna caught Trist mid-jump 2 times with a tornado for kills when she otherwise would have escaped. The Trist was overextending technically because that possibility exists, but literally nobody was prepared for it happening because I'm sure nobody but my Janna knew what she intended to happen. MF and Wukong are my top two and they're 69% and 78% respectively. Hopefully I can make D1 this season, I'm in promos for D2 right now Is there a reason you don't go IE -> Youmuu's on MF? Seems much better on her than Shiv/PD Also, I think it's funny that Zilean could potentially be >50% PB at Worlds despite not being touched since S1. | ||

Went against an Aatrox, kinda lost my lane but was more relevant in teamfights since he tanks and peels like a boss. Your ult also gives your ad carry more wiggle room with their positioning. | ||

Not true, back in s2 (I think) they disabled leveling w first. TECHNICALITIES. | ||

RIP sunfire/abyssal core eh. the recent patches also gave him a bunch of mana buffs which lets him compete with the other top laners. Even post-patch he can still go oom pretty fast if you spam too hard. before, Maokai was usually laned mid where he could get blue buff to cover his mana issues early on before he gets a big mana item. | ||

The new ultimate is ridiculously strong. Fairly easy to keep at least 2 others in range of it, and maokai's kit punishes diving so incredibly hard. His E also is invaluable for checking baron from really long range. Basically impossible to bait it when the maokai is too tanky to engage on even if you can break banshees+catch, and everybody else is sitting behind him. | ||

That's true, but my point is that the last time he was popular it was also simply harder to fight out of the ring if you played against a decent Maokai because there was less mobility in the game and the fights were shorter (or, more precisely, actually got people killed (usually through burst though) instead of slapping each other, spamming heals/exhaust/shields, then each team runs back to its corner).  Obviously now unless you're playing the artillery piece style with Ziggs (and then you deserve to be gifted headphones playing Lux's laugh on repeat) or Kog, you won't do much with an immobile ult because one team tries to initiate, the other one counter initiates then runs away, then everyone scatters, then the loser gets chased. | ||
