I don't trust LoL's code with addons, otherwise I would like them. Not balance or difficulty, I'm talking about literally the core of how they designed encounters and PvP. Shit like what mechanics they included, the complexity of those mechanics, and timing. Quantity and diversity. Now, the shift to increasingly complicated mechanics was also spurred heavily by people just being much much better at the game, but the UI *definitely* added to it. It's not bad or good, but it happened and made addons mostly mandatory. Difficulty in that game was mostly numbers and margin for error. Not what I'm on about at all. | ||

Move Quick (W) [] Noxious Trap (R) [ now says "toss a trap" instead of "place a trap". has new text reading "If a thrown trap lands on another trap, it will bounce up to X Teemos further before planting.". Will have to look at this in-game... ] http://www.surrenderat20.net/2015/07/723-pbe-update.html What is this man... | ||

If you've got Trifroce/Shiv, a barrel instantly clears the wave. This is a lot less setup for getting a full wave of Q gold, and makes getting Q gold much easier pre-Shiv. You also get a small but significant gold lead after Sheen, and especially after Triforce. This makes Hydra less valuable, as it's probably overkill on the waveclear. I'd go one of Shiv/Hydra, leaning towards Shiv because of the movespeed and additional ranged burst. The passive's AD scaling is *really* strong, especially with barrel resets in a duel and while splitpushing. Two procs and two triforce procs is a lot of tower pushing ability. Even a small opportunity gets you most of a Tier 2. Barrels are shit pre-7. Your laning phase until then is super meh, and the barrel tickdowns are really his most significant level powerspikes. He scales really well with levels in general. For item builds, he seems pretty versatile. Tforce is core. For damage, so is Shiv, most likely. I don't think he's got enough guaranteed utility or base damage to warrant going the Irelia build or full tank, but something Gnar-style would probably work. Tforce->Mallet and/or Black Cleaver->Maw and/or Thornmail. I think Black Cleaver's great on him. CDR, health, and AD is a dream setup for GP now. I probably underrated the pen on LW before, but think Black Cleaver outclasses it on him (and most melees) anyway. If you'll be going any more than two damage items, I think IE is basically mandatory. The in-fight burst from a crit barrel is his number one teamfight use if you're heavy on damage, and it can quickly turn a fight with the slow. Something like Tforce->Shiv->IE/BT->Defensive item. Maybe skip BT for a second defensive item or Cleaver in burst scenarios. He's a surprisingly safe pick. Q/E waveclear is decent under tower, and if you can push out, great. I'd never pick him into an assassin though. Zed/Leb/Talon/Yasuo will shit on him. Tanks/other bruisers are probably the ideal. Ranged matchups are iffy. | ||

I have a question, the old score screen used to light up the portraits of enemy players that were out of the FOW. The new one doesn't do that? Or is it just really hard to see? I was pushing mid and I hit tab, but I couldn't tell if the 3-4 man gank bot still had all 3-4 pushing bot together. | ||
