reddit titles always have ridiculously bad grammar, "junglers are not entitled to win your lane for you." How can you be entitled to do work for someone else, should be "laners aren't entitled to junglers helping you win the lane."

gnar has a lot of ae dmg plus CC, especially near any walls or turrets (and all objectives have one of those around somewhere).
His laning also looks strong.


I guess the problem is that you want his big form for fights and his small form for cleanups, so you have to engage at specific times and if you get disengaged or otherwise delayed, you have the wrong form avaliable.
Not being able to controll wether you are a weak ADC or a beastly bruiser with a lot of ae and CC will be the main competetive problem i guess.


I would maybe build 1 MR item and 1 armor item and the rest maybe damage or 1 more def item depending on who is fed.
Probably start with a damage item or at least half a damage item like cutlass or bruta.

I think in the spotlight they suggested Tri/Botrk => Tank. Doesn't seem all that different from the Irelia/Jax mold in that setup.

Fuck that site, I compared myself with some of the Jannas and lol, this ain't fair. How am I losing out to someone who has 1/3 as many games, 10% worse win rate and a worse kda. I should check back how much my lolskill goes up if I jump a division.

Also, a plat 5 guy is in the top 10, having 16% worse winrate (which almost puts him at 50%), and his saving grace is the 0.8 deaths per game. I mean, that's impressive in 40+ games, but man, if in my next 10 J games I go über-pussy mode, probably losing most of the games, but not dying at all I would probably get a much higher lolskill points. Fuck this, I'm salty.

Here is how you tell if you're the best Janna main in the game.

1) get a list of all the Janna's

2) rank them by MMR

lol skill and every other site that tries to give you a rating that isn't just your MMR is dumb.

Wouldn't that just list every challanger player who ever played at least 1 game with Janna?

We'll not if you have a cutoff of games played with the champion recently.

Also they are likely the worlds best Jannas anyway

The author is sensationalizing this pretty hard. Roaming supports aren't anything new and this comp was VERY hit or miss.

I can't believe they let an article go though the mentions Dota by name.

The example game wasn't super meaningful, but the article wasn't bad whatsoever. The idea of farm allocation as a basis of picking compositions is something that most LoL players don't understand.

it's been a pretty regular topic since s2 when Froggen was the most obvious priority 1 mid in a season dominated by priority 1 adc

Too bad its basically irrelevant considering the lack of Scrolls of TP and true hard carries in LOL. PLus he actually listed ZAC as a position 5 hero in one of the comps. I can't think of a more ridiculous idea. Even when people jungled him he was played as a high 4/low 3, and people preferred him top as a high3/low2.

Because in LoL you can't allocate farm with the same granularity as in DotA. Also items are pretty important because LoL has less "I have this item, now I can get no gold for the rest of the game" items. If you'd let your Zyra support farm a Liandry's, or a Zhonya's for your Morg support, the farm taken away to buy that can put your higher pos way behind, and the utility brought by the items won't be able to offset that.

Also even if it's harder to jungle in DotA, the plethora of camps and the fact that you can stack them to "save for later" means that you don't necessarily lose much gold by ganking and being active and stuff. And then you can easily funnel it to someone with enough dps (or AoE, like Sand King), You can't do that in LoL and the conservation passive means that you lose overall gold if you try to funnel the jungle income to a non-jungler.
