I don't really feel like figuring out all this shit, but I do kinda want to play it. Does anyone have a tutorial or can TLDR me? Which one's the best brawler, which are the good new items, etc.
Codex upgrades are flat out broken, the claw item is hilarious on on hitters, the axe item is strong on AD casters, and the damage redirecting item means Leona should be permabanned imo.
While the patches might be the same regularity it feels like they make more changes per patch at the moment.
I thought this was an intentional interaction (sort of like extending ward range too), wasn't aware it doesn't work vs other invis champions. Now I know why I've never been able to spot Shaco ganks. lol
Diamond made a post which is basically recapping his thoughts and experiences on gambit from when he got benched for Loulex to today. Good read featuring a bitch session about forg1ven's ban.
So you guys are super excited whenever a patch introduces a new champion or item, and want to figure it out (or, about as often, for it to be spoon fed to you here within the first two pages as if we could divine it and do your work for you).
But when a new gamemode that you can 100% ignore unless you want some free icons you probably won't use more than twice gives you a bunch of new toys to try out and determine for yourself whether they're good or not, and with Riot actually testing stuff on a much larger scale than on the PBE where 50 people or various but often very low level may or may not test for bugs and shit for the benefit of the QA team, I've only seen bitching and complaining about it.
So... I guess that's where I indulge in the meme too and spam something like "we reddit now"?
I'd be the first to admit that after having played the new game mode a few times I absolutely love it. The new items are much more fun than the bland vanilla items and the idea of upgradable minions is super cute. Tricker's Glass is the most fun I've had in League for a long time. <3

If there's one thing the new UI has taught us, change is bad. Any change is to be viewed with scorn and contempt.
Well, I can understand the people who want to play GP thinking that disabling GP merely for the purposes dead-ness is dumb. Sure, there's a bug currently, but that doesn't make the idea any better for them.

So I guess no one should complain about the UI then so it can remain in a worse state? It's not like they made any changes after feedback or anything...

No, you shouldn't complain it because it's new and therefore anyone who complains about it is just a whiner who hates change.

What if that's how I genuinely feel? I haven't played League in more than a week, at what point will I convince you that I really think this UI is horrible?

I'd link a snarky wiki page and/or picture here, but it's too easy.
Actual arguments are in desperately short supply on this board. Most of the things spouted as fact are blatantly wrong/underresearched, and opinions have nothing behind them but 'lol riot' more often than not.
OK guys, Razorfins are OP as shiatsu. Just level up abilities first and they chase down champions with a lot of move speed and double in number. There's no reason to pick anything but Razorfins.
Edit: Oh yeah, for the record, the new UI is superior in almost every way. The vast majority of people complaining are complaining because it's different, not because it has obvious problems.

They're the best for damage but they give the enemy double gold at rank 3 :/
