EPTThe reason why I think Luden's will be good is that the active just seems so strong on champions that want to do burst damage and that a slight build change could warrant it.

Not that the buff is super huge or anything. I think Riot needs to make every item significantly op before the top pros pick up on it and then the playerbase does. If righteous glory is merely good then the pros will build what they know is good out of habit. They don't want to take risks because people are creatures of habit. You have to give them some push to get them to the action potential of trying an item/champion. And they can't just try it once, eg Viktor, fail because they're not used to it, and then give up on it. They have to do well the first few games, confirm that it's strong over several games, and it's justifiable to learn how to play that champion well over their comfort picks. TL:DR righteous glory needs to be overbuffed before it'll get picked up in yolo queue. | ||

Everything else in the current meta doesn't really have a need for the item that I can think of or doesn't get played enough. core item on olaf, though olaf isn't played in pro pick, i'm convinced olaf is pretty strong right now. | ||

RoA has been mostly dumped for RG rush, iirc in last weeks lck games, Mao went RoA only once, and thats not much considering he had a very high pick/ban rate shy: Neither (looks like SV rush?) Duke: RG rush MaRin: RG rush saturdays games aren't listed but I know Lil4c went RoA, I want to say CuVee went RG but I can't remember for sure, who cares what CuVee builds lol sadly Smeb never got his hands on the tree. in the 6 games where the item builds are up on leaguepedia for last week, there are 6 RGs built, 7 if you count a support annie that had parts of RG in her inventory, the item is pretty popular. | ||

Thresh activated his Talisman right after and we walked over the scuttle shrine right then. Even with both MS caps, that was a surge close to 600 MS at the start. I don't think the enemy team expected that either, it's ridiculous how you cross a full screen in under 2s. | ||

I played 10+ normal + ranked games in an attempt to learn Singed this and last week. I ended up with distortion boots, ghost, my ult, and Righteous Glory (RG) to initiate fights whenever I felt like. Their entire team would back off as soon as I popped everything, and I'd still catch up to them and start the fight with a flip XD RG really helps those old champs that have problems sticking to people or getting to them to begin with. | ||

100 + 15% AP is correct - we're working on fixing it in the notes. http://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/2ypq8v/patch_55_notes/ unless I'm reading this quote wrong the ap scaling was not removed, it was just a typo | ||

Noxian Guillotine (R) [Still looking, might be more] Mana cost reduced to 100/50/0 New Effect: At rank 3, Noxian Guillotine's cooldown resets entirely on kill Whoa, that's a pretty huge buff. Also PBE also says there are 2 new items in the shop. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-hquv_Nca824/VQEQzQqKOqI/AAAAAAAAlyw/20WwIIHL1lE/s1600/115.jpg http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-TV7kRaEj9IY/VQEQzYMKVCI/AAAAAAAAly0/5Ep7R93o9IM/s1600/3324.jpg | ||

Not that I needed an excuse to play more Darius though haha. Also I wonder if they mean Noxian Guillotine will reset completely if Darius kills an enemy with the Guillotine, or just kills an enemy in general. I'm pretty sure they just mean if his ult kills someone. Speaking of the D-man, I would like your input! So I've been playing a lot against Irelia recently as Darius and I was wondering what I should start. I've been doing cloth + 5, but what happens if she starts flask + 3 health potions it's very hard for me to wear her down, as I usually start to run out of mana before she runs out of hp. After the first back everything is fine and dandy and I have no problems, but I'd like to be more oppressive early game if at all possible. I've considered flask + 3 health potion start but I'm wondering if that's just an open invitation for her to go and smash me. So possibly cloth + 4 health potions and 1 mana potion but I'm not sure. I'm also sure that I wouldn't have this problem if I ran teleport, but I like the killing potential of ignite. A lot. Feedback would be awesome! Thanks guys! | ||

So what usually happens is that I have about 2 or so health potions when this happens. This is why I'm thinking about cloth + 4 health potions + 1 mana potion. What can also happen is that I attract the junglers attention since I'm usually pushed to tower and I'm playing Darius, who has escapes equivalent to Neo riding a wheel chair. So it's not uncommon for me to take some damage from the jungler while in lane, which consumes my remaining health potions. The more I think about it, the more I think I should start cloth + 4 health potions and 1 mana potion. | ||
