We have a few other setups we might consider experimenting with and nothing is set in stone. Feel free to discuss in Website Feedback.

Their LoL team is no longer called YFW, just FW. I think SC2 team still has Yoe in name, they are qualified for Worlds though.

Yes. They are the #2 seed from Taiwan.

Huekaiser hits like a goddamn lorry. Played a game against one with Deadman's Plate and he just comes zooming in with his W and murders you with that Q. You peel him or you die, and even then he just randomly kills people that come too close. Not sure if it's enough to compensate for his obvious weaknesses but holy shit that damage.

I didn't think the Lee Sin ult change was a big deal until I kicked a 4k hp cho into the enemy adc and one shot them. Nice to see Lee have some other way of team fighting effectively

Mordekaiser seems to be useless from what I've seen from him so far. Played vs Yorick with smite + Mordekaiser duo toplane, and even though they're ridiculously strong early game, they fall off uber fast. I can see LCS running this strategy against unprepared people to finish the game in under 20 minutes.

On the other hand, Skarner is reaching 64% winrate; and I actually got to pick it in the 4th round of picks.

Well that's the worst thing I've ever heard

Slight exaggeration but it sounds like them just trying something super goofy

Yeah they seemed to be goofing around. But, on the other hand, Mordekaiser straight up walked to towerdive our GP and instagibbed him. I suppose he can be usefull for blitzkrieg teamcomps.

really enjoying the S T R A T E G I C D I V E R S I T Y offered by this new patch

you're supposed to take morde bot lane and just stay in there cause ads don't do damage

you guys think adc will ever get some kind of change? I feel so underwhelming playing the role

Probably in the preseason some item changes.Don't think just changing numbers on champs can make a healthier adc pool.Also need more kalista nerfs.

Frankly i am not sure they should be played on this patch though i don't know who else can duo lane effectively.

I for one was shocked that they nerfed Viktor and Alistar but then didn't change Sivir or Kalista; easily the two most dominant champions(LCS) from the prior patches.

I dunno, I get wet knowing ADCs finally get to experience the pains they caused on other roles.

Just need to give sivir the mana cost on e back so she isn't so safe in lane vs everything.Now with bruisers being so good she is even stronger same with kalista/vayne and peel the kog comps.

Also on pbe they are nerfing kalista w and r.The real problems with her kit.
