This is why I play normal drafts on SR when the season is over.
+1, I don't play ranked until like a month after the new season starts. This season looks like the ultimate example of why I do that, there's too much weird stuff/completely imbalanced setups. Honestly wonder how long it will take to balance out, because Riot might not want to hit half the game with a nerf hammer in one go, so we'll see months of balancing.
The match making in normal is so bonkers right now I got matched with a challenger adc to support while meanwhile our midlaner had 12 cs @10 and claimed he won lane because he was 1-0 (off of my gank btw)
That's hilarious, my games are pretty lopsided but that's gotta be the pinnacle of matchmaking failure.

OK, nvm. Lol, there's an MLGB guy on Froggen's stream right now.

Disco Nunu got nerfed way too hard when they removed Clairvoyance. :-/
Maybe but the new runes are really good to disco. Predator is basically a 2-nd ghost.

I dream of a day when Nunu has been buffed to the point that people seeing a Nunu pick will expect reasonable jungle action and be legitimately surprised by the disco when they have a troll on their team. As it stands now, poor Nunu has a bad name.

I didnt realize it but the Soul mechanic keystone works on allied large minions/champions too. kinda interesting you can get 8 stacks and 2 uses of it on cannon waves if you auto inbetween the cannons dying.

anyone know who Blade is btw?
I know who tails/shout are but dunno who this blade guy is who apparently is the best of them at least in terms of soloq

his oldest account is TF BLade known as an akali 1 trick, been around challenger for at least the last 3 years iirc
on another note what has your guys' key to chest ratio been like since the honor system rolled out? I've always been ahead on chests but I'm up to 8 now it's getting silly

I get a lot of shit for it, until I point to my 100% winrate on Nunu on OP.GG. (To be fair I only pick him when our team has a good ADC.)

I love playing Nunu but whenever he is considered strong by the community ppl want him nerfed asap
|
Problem with Nunu is that with his kit, if he's ever good he just durdles around and is annoyingly difficult to deal with. That combined with Riot putting the nerfbat to all non-mechanically heavy junglers and it's ripville.

To be fair to LS, I believe these were all made with "Here's the live 1st pass of the runes" and 0 time actually spent in game and feeling things out. It's all theorycrafted.
|
also to be fair to LS. he's just bad enough to fall firmly into the trap of thinking hes so much better than he is. it's not his fault he doesnt seem to learn.
|
Rek'sai is better early game. But so is almost every other jungler. Need to test Vi as well. Kindred fun but I suck at her again. Need to FOI her clears.
|
Jungle is garbage and im never playing it again.
All mages are fun. Projectile procs! Neverending mana!
|
Wait Jungle is good again  It was garbage for like 3/4 of the season. Now you can finally be levels up on your opponent and good pathing is rewarded.
|
Jungle is strong but aery support is probably the most fun. One shot adc level 2 let you adc 1v1 farm vs the support and go one shot mid.
Although sometimes your adc gets 1v1d while you gank mid lol

Literally opposite of my feelings. I was always focusing on mantaining high level and farm advantage (and often succeeding) in s7, now I feel like even when I'm doing well I'm still level-two behind sololaners because there's just not enough exp.

Don't you get a chest once per champion, and it resets every season? So at the start of the season, you'll be getting a lot of chests if you play a lot of champions well (normals, cough) but you get fewer as the season goes on. Last season I dimly remember it being like this, because I'm currently sitting on 1 chest and like 30 key fragments lol. I get fragments almost every time I log in too, which makes it even worse.
