ALL THAT SAID GNAR'S WIN RATE IS STILL TRENDING UPWARD. According to our internal data top lane Gnar started at 39% in ranked play and is currently @ 44.5% and rising.


AND THEN THIS:

With that bit of info in mind we've decided to be more conservative with this first set of changes as we feel people still need time to learn Gnar's true strengths and build paths.


Why the FUCK is Riot buffing him if his win rate is trending UPWARDS?!?!??! HOLY SHIT IT MAKES ME SO FUCKING MAD. Can for once they just stop and think for two seconds that maybe he doesn't need changes?

The majority of the changes are very small, about all they did is make it easier to catch the boomerang and make his laning not suck total ass pre-6, which it does.

So, I got really bored and tried picking singed into Mao. A terribly stupid matchup that is. On the plus side you have similar power spikes, on the negative side it's like banging your head on a wall.

I think I'd rather them wait another couple of weeks. They are patching on two week cycles. They can easily afford to let him sit for a little while longer.

I've never played master yi before but I can a dream where I carried games by getting a bunch of multi-kills so I decided to try him out. Then the free wins proceeded to come; I wonder how far I can ride this gravy train.

We need a thread for when we meet summoners with funny names.

Because I'm playing against Adolf Critler right now.

Reminds me of Anivia/Ziggs/Lux/etc.
Alternatively, Singed himself when you play stuff like Jax/olaf/Pantheon.
Or Yorick in general.



I mean, you're Singed, you don't even give him passive stacks with Q and he'll never outpush you anyway. It's just that he doesn't delay an item timing by rushing Cowl against you like most people would.
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.

After not playing League/ADC for a few weeks, holy balls is Nami/Cait hell to play against as Vayne...

I'd really like to know what is going on in vayne players brain when they lock her. Possibilities:
- There's got to be a game where I don't get shit on in lane, aye?
- I have a quadra with this champ. This champ is good, you will see.
- Lucian has a shorter ranger than me, gg, get countered son.
- Rekkles played her, she's still good, why the qq?
- They have a tanky team so I'm gonna counter them with my silver bolts. GET SILVER BOLTED!
- Fuck, missclick!
- Support might carry me. That's his job, right?

If Gnar had not been released I'd rather have anyone (even Poppy or Sion) in my team than this worthless champ. But instalose-goddamnuseless-feeder Gnar was indeed released so she's no longer the queen of uselessness. Well, technically she is, since Gnar is male...

And as for the Gnar buffs, I hope Riot will adjust him, because I hate wasting a ban against my own team if I already dodged a game that day because someone wanted to derp with him.

Wasn't this "worthless" champ picked several times by SKT K during the nlb finals ?
I mean ofc vayne gets shat on by any good cait+X but that doesn't mean she's worthless, she's just a situational pick, first picking her is obviously dumb but in certain circumstances she's very fine.

The only thing I don't like about vayne currently is that she has a shit early because she then becomes an hypercarry but kog and trist carry just the same (if not better...) and aren't weak early. So yeah in a solo queue game you should probably pick kog or trist if you want to deal sick D@M@G€$, playing vayne is really risky.

yes, every single 1v2 lane.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

Vayne's problem is supports.She can handle almost every ad lane.
