So I've played a couple games on the new Soraka and I think I like her overall. She seems more fun than the old Soraka and I really, really like Equinox. Although I wish it popped like a quarter second sooner or was a little wider because it's quite easy for the enemy to just walk out of it (seems like a better follow up tool than initiation but it puts it in a weird place during laning phase. Also the range of the heal is painfully short. Basically need to be standing on top of champions in order to heal them so healing a tank during a team fight can get rough and make positioning rough.

How have people been building her? Not sure what to grab after standard support items.

The answer to playing soraka is intentionally let your team get low so you can race car around, healing them just ruins the fun

Faker's popularity skyrocketed because he didn't make it to worlds. People started to relate to his 1v9 struggles.

I'm not gonna debate that that is incredibly fun.

Rammus is in a decent spot. Very strong early ganking. Good Dmg early levels. And late game he becomes a good front line tank. He might get a reduction in his Q dmg I believe as its rather high at level 1. Oh and the QoL change was also a decent buff. While not huge definitely helped him.


it's not, in fact a lot of Rammus specialists put a 2nd point in Q before maxing E, because it's something stupid like a 100% damage increase, at rank 2 it does pretty nice damage.

going from 100 -> 150 isn't a 100% dmg increase
I've never heard of anyone taking lvl2Q on standard jungle Rammus before maxing W and E before

The damage increase on level 2 Q isn't actually that much, I rather have the extra cc duration of taunt to get another auto attack in, which probably ends up being more damage anyways.

Also, I wouldn't even call the Rammus changes QoL, they were strictly a buff, and the abilities by design should have canceled each other out.

I've had around 100 in every game I played except aoe1-2 on old ms zone for some reason I could get 50-60 and that was ten years ago. Midwest internet connection to LA/NYC just isn't great.

The azubu app is actually pretty nice and functional, just comparing to the twitch app. Not bad. I miss being able to watch via browser on phone but it's not bad at all.

So I took a break from League for awhile but before I stopped playing Renekton was super in meta and played competitively. Upon coming back he isn't played at all. Like, not even in solo queue. When I picked Renekton I even had people pissed at me and tell me he sucks. I was just curious as to why he fell out of meta? I looked and he didn't get changed at all so did the top lane pool just change to stuff that wasn't as good for him? I know Maokai/Alistar and the like got popular against them but I can't imagine Renekton has a terrible time against them I guess they just have more team fight presence than him.

I figured the rise of every top laner taking TP would've been a big contributing factor since Renekton really likes Ignite but I just wanted some clarification. Unless the wiki is missing nerfs or something that happened to him Renekton should still be a solo queue god at the very least.

He's still insanely strong in soloqueue, problem is game is all about lategame now, and Renekton's lategame in comparison is just not that great.

Less duo, and more struggle. huehuehue.

I dunno, when I got into Gold 1, I just randomly loss all motivation to play the game, despite getting into plat wouldn't be hard at all for me. Maybe I might join the struggle again to get into plat this weekend.

Oh that makes a lot of sense actually. If they make the game less late game focused in S5 he'll probably make a huge resurgence then. He still shits on people top lane at least. Thanks.

more like TP got buffed which made laning a lot more easier + many top laners were capable of beating him/going even [ryze/lulu/gragas/mundo/irelia]. renekton did not get nerfed and at all and his itemization did not get touched either[sunfire dealing slightly less dmg was inconsequential because most top laners were ap based]

Haha I was stuck in Silver last season and have played exactly one ranked game this season. I'm just playing normals to try and shake off the rust but I'm down to duo/drag people down to my level.
