@iCanada how does Draven ult do 2x 904 damage and Graves ult does 750 when Dravens ult does 375 + 1.1 bonus AD per hit and graves ult does 550 + 1.5 bonus AD?
It seems that in your wildly optimistic evaluation of Dravens burst (by assuming long animation time abilities hit both sides and hit nothing first so have no reduced damage) you have given him 904 free damage.
Edit: you also assumed graves couldn't get >1 pellet on his buckshot which I think is a reasonable assumption but not when you're suggesting you always get a perfect single target ult for draven.

That is my bad, thought it was total AD for some reason. I apologize for that.
Still leaves him with bigger burst than Graves by about 200 damage with or without crit.
And in a teamfight, getting a perfect Draven single target ulti is pretty easy, imo. And if not you lose maybe 40% on the second hit, which leaves his burst identical to Graves.

Does anybody perhaps know whether you can see runes/masteries for professional matches? And if so, where? I know you can see them for the soloq games, but I'm talking about LCS.

New Veigar feels stronger in ARAM to me. I can consistently get 100+ AP from his baleful strike stacking even in fairly short games (would rarely break 50 before), the extra hit of baleful strike if it bounces actually adds a decent bit of damage, dark matter is up more frequently, and you can trap the enemy team in a really small area making them helpless against AOE damage. Ult is a bit weaker but the lower cooldown on it eases the sting.
It also adds this weird dynamic that when you start one shotting full health enemy minions with q you start gaining AP extremely quickly.

wtf? instant stun in ARAM is broken as fuck, I dunno how you came to the conclusion that he's become stronger just because you get some more ap now...

I feel like they stopped balancing aram. Either it's in a good enough state or they realized they were wasting too much time on aram when game balance wasn't a prime importance there.
Veigar's still strong on aram. But I couldn't initiate with my stun anymore. I had to wait for someone else to initiate, then I'd drop my AoE stun on 3-5 people. Also w/o dfg I can't 1 shot squishies that jump me anymore

That's not what I said at all.

I'm glad they don't. ARAM has no business being balanced. It really is just a mode for funsies

I played against the new Veigar. He was absolutely pitiful. Didn't even bother getting mercs because it was so easy to dodge event horizon. And his Q is pretty slow and easy to dodge.

Yeah, I think everyone knows Veigar's change was a significant nerf. But how about the new Zilean? I played him once and it was so difficult to land a double bomb. On top of his bombs doing less damage and overall harder to hit. Anyone else having luck with him or is he dumpster tier as well?

according to Bigfat he's a pile of garbage but I feel like he looks ok on paper as a support (which jiji doesn't play)

Bit late, but match history from AHGL BlackBerry vs. HireVue. 9 silver or lower & 1 low diamond player.

Would anybody be interested in me streaming the games/uploading VoDs? The stream time does conflict with LCS on most days, and it is a fair amount of time investment for uploading.
If anybody asks why I didn't kill Wukong more, he had 19CS at 10 minutes, and about 30 at 15. I just zoned the shit out of him(xp range only), so he was down 3 levels and had no items (compare his gold with zyra/nami, who have a GP10 item)

Like you'll ult someone at the end of hte fight, but he'll revive still with no mana, so they just die again...

do they revive with 0 or their old total?

Random musings about recent topics:
ARAM only needs literally one more change to be completely fine - every champ is available. I know it's an old suggestion, but it's still one of the best things that could happen to League.
Zilean 'feels' better to me, but I think he's a bit undertuned personally. I do miss the 5 second slow/haste, though 99% is pretty wicked at times.
Draven is one of the most entertaining champs in the game to watch when a competent player is playing him IMO. I'd love to see him played more. There is like Krystal and I think Freeze in EU, but I can't think of anyone else.
