Rakan looks too mobile not to be strong honestly, unless they gut his numbers. Maybe not at the moment, but when people learn to play him, he should become OP with so much mobility and utility, he is like support Lee sin on steroids

I got 4 free wins off xayah last night and people on the other team were complaining having similar experiences.

It was a pleasant surprise from Lucian killing me as a full tank malphite/nasus in 3 seconds to being able to tank their full team easily with xayah adc. Felt like she did no damage.

I don't think she can be viable while lucian/ezreal/twitch/kog exist in their current states in solo q. BOTRK doesnt seem to synergize with her as well as them which is all that matters atm.

Maybe she can be good once this botrk thing is gone.
I come in for the scraps

You mean fervor. They need to change fervor back to on hit rather than flat ad.

i've only played 4 xayah games so far but to me she felt very strong in lane (though not lucian tier) and didn't seem to fall off really

I liked her as a 'duelist' as I often dueled either the other adc or just self peeled vs their divers with my ulti and root from feathers. damage was always high with consistently 2nd or most damage on team with both low and high kills. late game she falls off but still felt ok.

lucian should outshine her as the 'safe adc that wins lane and can duel with strong midgame' but I think she is quite good.
and she seems like one of those champs that get better in competitive.

Okay, I have barely played at all this season, especially on SR. Somebody give me a quick rundown on early jungle pathing.

1. start raptors with leash (unless youre graves), red, scuttle/blue, rest of blue side
2. gank every lane forever and fuck jungle cs.
3. repeat
4. proceed to outscale the enemy jungler through kills even if he takes over your jungle.
5. win game

Lucian is so strong right now that I as a first time Lucian could carry a game with him.... Me being able to solocarry might as well be the measure for whether or not a champion is broken. lol

EDIT:
Got 10 gemstones now! :O Should I grab Space Marine Darius and become a OTP or wait to see what next skin is?

Well, I think it's the first time I've seen a 1 poster begging for an IP gift, and I've been here for quite a while. You'd think that reddit or somewhere else would be better.

Even though I own every champ at this point, with enough IP to buy the next one already(and then some), I'd rather save it for chromas or to gift less passionate friends champs.

Wait, you can give champions to friends for IP?
If so, I have a few trolling ideas

I've been looking over the PBE and there's a few things I'm a bit iffy about. The new Adaptive Helm + Show Spoiler +

Adaptive Helm
Total Cost: 2800g
Sells for: 1960g
Recipe: Null Magic Mantle + Spectre's Cowl + Rejuvenation Bead + 1000g
+300 Health
+55 Magic Resist
+100% Base Health Regeneration
+10% Cooldown Reduction
UNIQUE Passive: Taking magic damage from a spell or effect reduces all subsequent magic damage taken from that spell or effect by 15% for 4 seconds.
in particular and isn't it like... Completely and utterly broken against dot heavy champions? In top wouldn't it be a huge indirect nerf to champions like Rumble. All the individual parts are sweet in the matchups it's good so it's not like there's any awkward buys in it.

The Relic Shield "quest" + Show Spoiler +
Relic Shield line quest added:
Quest: Earn 650 gold using this item and upgrade to Targon's Brace.
Reward: Shield Battery, a permanent shield that regenerates slowly outside of combat.
if the shield is any kind of good what's to stop the ADC from getting it?

The silly amount of resists AD assassins can get now without really sacrificing damage:
-Guardian Angel
-Maw
-QSS
-Edge of Night
-Merc/Tabis
In games where Cleaver is enough armor pen AD assassins can basically become bruisers. The items have incredible strong passives too.

I'm sitting at a solid 68% winrate as a rengar one trick in gold 4 so here in low elo they're pretty good.

as for higher elo? I haven't seen much khazix or rengar. mostly zac, elise, graves, lee sin. I can't get a proper read on the jungle meta right now, I can't tell what items are broken or anything

Yea, IDK why they decided they needed an anti-sustained AP item. That is like...2 characters?
