EPTThat being said I really prefer the new W changes, they help to allow a bot lane with Kalista and a ranged support to proc the W passive for poke much more often.

I think I played him on and off for 20 games and I showed essentially no improvements on my mastery over him. Then he got nerfed and his QE interaction was changed. It was pretty heartbreaking. It's a very difficult champion to play. Additionally, I feel you need very good ping to utilize his W, E, and R effectively. If you want to learn him, now is the time? He is in a very bad spot, but at least I don't see additional nerfs on the horizon. | ||

Her jump is incredibly unreliable now, even when focusing completely on jumping it still fails to cast often or jumps in the completely wrong direction. I don't know if ping has anything to do with this but I play on around 70 ping and had no issues before these changes with Kalista. For a change that is supposed to make her intuitive and easy to play I think they really missed the mark. That being said I really prefer the new W changes, they help to allow a bot lane with Kalista and a ranged support to proc the W passive for poke much more often. Sounds like a bug rather than an intended change. | ||

Yasuo is somewhat difficult to learn, he's in a weak spot right now which makes him a lot harder to learn right now. I would only recommend playing with him in mid, he's not really capable of going head to head with most top laners right now. He will get out damaged and out tanked. That being said against squishier opponents like mid mages Yasuo can still do well, although again he is still in a bit of a weak spot currently especially considering the IE changes. I would say he takes an above average amount of games to learn the best times to go in and the mechanics of the champion. Maybe 40 or so games. | ||

Yeah, I just hope they address it soon with a bug fix, some tweaking, or a complete reversion of the changes until they can fix it. I know the patch has only been live for a bit but in the past things like this have been left in the game for a whole patch cycle and I don't want to wait that long  I really enjoyed playing Kalista and was finding a decent amount of success with her. | ||

Thing is that I am bad at playing mages, so mid is not my lane, but I am trying to find smth stable for there as well. Tried Talon, did not like it, its like too easy to fall behind and to be useless with him. Zed is too main stream, thats why I thought about yasuo , since, he is no longer a priority pick, but I guess I have to stick with my Master Yi mid with whom I am dealing pretty well actually | ||

I am decent with Zilean, since, I was former support main and played him a lot, however, I feel kind of awkward with him at mid, since, I can't seem to do anything without my team playing well. Its like harass harass => revive someone. If I really want safe pick mid that actually can make some plays I would go with morgana:-) but again, mages are just not my forte :-)) | ||

I can also only guess that their parent company would rather have their players show "Samsung Wraith" instead of "SGS Wraith" on screen. Is Riot enforcing these tags or what? You only started seeing them at Worlds and then when LCK (which is another example) started. What? They changed to JIN from JAG? Booooo. | ||

She's in a really good spot right now and isn't extremely hard to play. She has really solid laning with Q harass and you can set up ganks really easily with your stun combo. The icing on the cake is when you hit 6 and have a point and click ult that can delete squishes. Build is standard AP: nomicon/chalice + deathcap + sorc shoes + void staff + zhonyas + 6th of your choice | ||

Those are the easiest to learn and the most fun to play. Vel'Koz and Xerath are especially choice. I personally prefer Vel'Koz just because he's so different from every other champ in the game and nobody knows how to play against him ^_^ Both Xerath and Vel'Koz also completely take over a game if they get just a little bit ahead. Just ask LordTolkien :F:F:F | ||

That's almost impossible unless it's literally your job to watch pro League. -.- At this point I think it's best to just pick a region and maybe a team or two you really want to keep up with and use that as your viewing guide. Even then it's a daunting task because you know the other regions have good games on occasion you'll want to watch. | ||
