I feel like it doesn't matter how Irelia supposedly "beats" him if I have to get camped by my jungler or lose 20+ cs to him, as he has enough with Tear for his laning while I don't feel strong enough until I have at least dblade+sheen.


0K how the fuck does Vlad Q me before I flash and kill me with that? His Q is instant, either I die and don't flash, o I flash and he doesn't cast. What the fuck.

Well that's the thing: since he can zone you from exp from level 1 if he wants too, Ryze doesn't "tie" the lane, it's Irelia job to reach level 5-6 at the same time as him and with enough farm to be able to threaten him. It's not like he "needs to survive the lane".

I think his point was that maybe the thing that killed you wasn't vlads Q, but his auto, which are not instant? So his q nearly killed you, you flashed, his auto chases you down and kills you.

Ah, my bad then. No, it wasn't, he had just auto'd me (otherwise I'd have survived the Q), and I saw the projectile hit me, so he couldn't have auto'd again (and I'd have seen the projectile flying).
On arrival I was already in the death animation, but since Flash is so fast I don't know if it cast after I died, or if the animation just started immediatly after.

I think PX wants two CDR items for maximized CDR.

Ketara wants to run scaling CDR blues (15% at level 18). So Ketara only needs one 20% CDR item.

I think scaling CDR blues are really strong right now btw, everyone should try them (maybe except Karthus/Cass)

I'm on the CDR wagon. Unless you're facing like two big AP threats and really need MR, CDR feels really good. It means with Grail I perfectly hit CDR cap at 18. I'm taking them every match on mid Vel'Koz regardless of enemy team, and selectively on Brand and Liss. They feel way better than scaling AP because the champs I'm playing ATM do more with more CDR than raw AP.

max cdr velkoz is so much fun.

as for azir... man. usually, it only takes a few games for me to pick up a new champion and at the very least be able to hold my own. I've played azir about 10 games, and I still suck with him. i find it really difficult to manage his skills/cd's. I think I need to start only putting one soldier into any kind of fight or skirmish, so that I always have another one to allow me to reposition with e. I'm really getting tired of joining a skirmish, and using my combo, and then not having anything up to defend myself when the enemy team inevitably jumps straight for me. i suspect that is why he is able to have 2 soldiers stored. one to attack, one to reposition.

few other notes:

w-q a soldier further away, and then e to it. i think this simple combo is why riot made the w cast on the edge of your range, instead of moving azir forward.

he is so squishy, and his range is so short. frustrating combination. It doesnt make much sense to give a champ skills like e and r and have his stats be so middling. not to mention his last hitting is AWFUL. if the soldiers were more dependable to farm with this wouldn't be an issue, but using azir's basic attack to last hit is so bad.

ive started rushing roa. i think nashor is good on him, but not as a first item. roa solves (most) of his mana issues, and helps with his pitiful stats. i think the next build i'm going to try is roa, zerker boots, nashor.

all this negativity aside, i think azir is a cool champ, and I won't stop playing him.

From what I saw when Wings played him, it is usually good to only be using one soldier at a time unless your going for a calculated all in.

Why do people max E on Irelia now? People suggested that to me when I play, and I watched a vod of Royal Club vs. TSM, where Cola looked to be maxing E first too.

Is max W not a thing anymore?

Pro play is different, especially if they lane swapped (Irelia is very level-dependant at least till 6-7, if they lane swapped and were looking to get picks, longer stun duration is nice I guess).
W first is a no-brainer because all of her damage comes from there. Might as well play AD Annie otherwise.

People spamming "dive" when we have Nidalee/Katarina/Blitz and they have Lee, Pantheon, Ryze, Morgana and their Corki is fed. And complaining about vision when they don't buy wards, and who dive 3v4 when we force a pick on the 5th who's out of position to allow us to take that tower.
Urgh.

Only thing I can think of is they're using Irelia as a lockdown and are priporitizing the longer stun duration. Given the matchup, Irelia is pretty screwed without jungle support. With reasonable MR(base + /level + glyphs) against Irelia, lvl5 W + lvl2 E needs to hit 3 times to outdamage lvl5 E and level 2 W. Given she most likely won't be fighting alone, it isn't an awful idea in organized play.

How is everyone feeling about Azir?

Played him a couple times and he is definitely interesting. Feels more like an ADC than a mage, tbh. I could actually see him being played as the carry position in lieu of an ADC. Big huuuge damage, like absurd damage, but man he is squishy. Like Big time squishy. With Abyssal and Athenes I died in 1 combo to a level 14 Malzahar without DFG about a 3rd of the way through his R. Like, mega squishy. I had scaling MR glyphs too, and I was level 18 (I bodied him in lane, but I think that was just because I'm a play player and he was a bronzie, yay teambuilder, definitely feels like a competent opponent would shit on him in lane on a lot of champions, can't really win trades unless he presses E, and in which case he is all in as fuck). Thats like 120 MR and I just like popped, all he had was sorc shoes and a Liandry's.
.


Malzahar crushes everyone dude, just pray that no pro ever plays him or he'll get the Talon treatment.

I hate the Malz vs Brand Matchup because Brand just outranges me. I don't think Lux is that great either. Leblanc used to be terrible but she got nerfed a lot.

Uh can't you just hide behind minions and laugh at Brand when he can't match your waveclear ever (nor your mana sustain early on)?


takes about three levels in Malefic Visions before it's reliable at waveclearing, before then you have to guide it a bit to make sure you get the lasthits with autos and manipulating wave hp, which can get dangerous

Meanwhile, Rammus has SIX. And that includes having both "right" and "alright," as well as "yeah" and "yeh." He doesn't even have a laugh, joke or taunt!

I just had a game where Sejuani was glitched and her boar made weird pig grunts every single time she was in view or nearby - even if it was her dead body.

It was hilarious for the first 5 minutes, and then i wanted to pull my hair out.

On irelia e max, probably because it makes you a lot safer in a 1v2(stronger anti dive), and 1v1 kills aren't that common against equal skill opponents, so if you can make the 2v1 that much more deadly, its a good idea. Not so good in soloq.

Holyfuck.

6 item Cassiopiea rightr now is ridiculous. Like 700 AP + 40 CDR + Zhonyas + Rylais Slow + Seraphs + 3.5K HP + 150 MR / Armor.

Just silly. SO much deeps.

Can someone explain why pro supports go ignite even when the enemy team has a huge damage adc? Like FZZF went ignite on thresh vs a trist. Is it just because he assumes he will never get the opportunity to exhaust trist in a teamfight and that ignite is stronger in lane?

Should I only be grabbing exhaust if they have an actual assassin?
