I did pretty good with Lulu top when that was a thing, and I can play Garen and Cho. I don't think a particular champ matters, you are diamond, most likely you have the mechanics , you have to pick whatever you are comfortable with and learn the dynamics of the lane, match ups, trades, timings etc. Playing on a way lower smurf won't help you with and overall smurfing helps you to learn a champ, if you want to learn a lane at your elo, then you gotta tank it with the same mmr

Its also likely that the problem is simply hard [not necessarily in the mathematical sense, but maybe] and so they haven't solved it yet.

But that is the advantage. The DDOSer cannot go on to his next game, and once you sense a drophack (more than X players leaving a game within 1 min), then you can monitor that game and immediately flag all those players. Its unclear if they have the information from the client to bust people, so they need to amass tons of trend information to figure out if a person is DDOSing or is simply a victim of it very often.

New champion looks awesome in so many ways. I'm really glad they've been coming up with interesting champion designs lately.
|
I just saw new champion's abilities, is riot not afraid of griefing anymore? I though they were against skills interacting with teammates? I don't want to have trolls on this champ in soloq...
|
this three on hit ability bullshit has got to fucking stop, it's so silly.
lol, the amount of griefing possibility with this new champ is endless.

Hey, it was right there in the teaser. If he deposits you in the enemy fountain you're the fool for jumping in.

I honestly loved his R. Considering that you play jungle, you can basically eat your mid laner and do 2 man gank to either bot or top.
|
I don’t think this champion with no gapcloser before 6 and a 3 hit passive can support. Jungle/top lane sounds morr plausible.

In this case the 3 hit mechanic actually makes sense though, on other champs it just felt thrown on to give them more damage / power for the hell of it.
Like Ekko really didn't need his and it didn't do much for the champ.
But this one seems cool.

His W can eat his ally without asking, but the ally can decide to jump on if Tahm's running toward the enemy team. Also, Bard's ult. Yes, Riot has finally decided to say "screw it" to griefing as an hindrance to design.
That Thick Skin mechanic is the most broken part of his kit I'd say, per design: that's an absurd amount of sustain, and it's non-conditional. The shield you can choose when to activate, so either you regen a bunch, or it looks like you'll die so you activate it at the last time possible.
W seems absurd damage-wise when you see what was left of Twitch's health, lost almost half of it, but that's a pure number thing that's easier to tune.

I'm usually not a huge fan of blizzard's champions from a visual perspective but regardless of how his abilities are he looks totally awesome.
okay I don't care if he's balanced this is totally awesome.
doesn't look like that great of a support because of no poke and not great engage (without 3 attacks of course). of course he might have so much sustain and tankiness that that compensates. i guess as a passive support he might be good but it all depends on his numers. w looks crazy though. eat someone and throw them out next to your turret
