id understand if the post count was for the whole of teamliquid but to have that many on LL only is crazy.
i dont remember seeing people on LD with that many posts and LD is way more active, though to be fair i havent been on LD for ages so i dont really remember.

One thing is posts in the community section count for whatever site you are logged in on.

They're just a lot of fun and it's just awesome to see when someone does something epic - or stupid - in a game and you have entire pages dedicated to that one moment. And simultaneously the crowd in the background is reacting similarly. You feel so connected somehow.

Alright. Got to play the new Ornn. Losing shield on W really hurts, the unstopable part of it is suuuuuper nice in some fringe cases and wtf his damage now. Sadly you cannot pick what item when upgrading allies, it appearently just defaults to the first bought when they have multiple eligible items, gave Ezreal an upgraded Iceborn instead of BotrK++.

His level 13 spike is rediculous.

Wait really? That's super sad lol. And wait??? Do u give the upgrades or does the upgrade not just show up in shop for your teammate if there's an Ornn in the game. Meaning didn't the Ez decide to upgrade Iceborn.

You just right click them and it upgrade the item, they dont get a choice at all. It's pretty meh you cant pick which one it is, so I dont think Ornn is worth it in an Ezreal comp unless it's a game where he can go Triforce. It's pretty nice you can do it on a "drive-by", my first friendly upgrade was on our jungler's Cleaver after he helped get a kill in the sidelane.

Was it always like this or...I'm feeling a bit dumb but I've very rarely played with Ornn and even then, games going to the point where u should upgrade items are kinda rare too. Who gets the cost of the upgrade, you or them?

Your teammates upgraded their own items for 1k at the store is how it used to work.

Hi Guys ,

I recently decided to check out LoL again, someone somehow got access to my account, but I recently got it back. Playing is pretty hilarious, seeing a champ and being like "I wonder what their moves do" - and then getting blown up by like Pyke or something lol.

Good to see the forum is still kicking! Would like to play some with fellow TL guys - feel free to add me and we can play some time.

Hi LoCi, hope you're doing well.

With Vayne becoming popular again, I just got to experience the hilarious Veigar E Condemn strategy. It didn't work, but it's an interesting interaction I wanted to share.

Orrn rework seems very strange, no? Is he better now?

Riot's crit item exploration....I'm not really a fan.

They're not tackling a major component of this which is that IE is the most trash commonly built item in the game.

Why does Riot still place all new accounts at silver MMR? I dont understand.. I thought they wanted to fix matchmaking for new players, but they just give new accounts Iron IV league rating and the same Silver II MMR? LOL. Whats the point? I just got my buddy into the game, and we finally got to level 30 on his acc / my smurf. Riot has literally 200 games of data collected on you at this point...

Why dont they use the aggregate champion/role data (KDA/KP/Utility score/Damage per death/damage share/Damage per gold/early gold advantage / early cs advantage / cs per minute / objective control ratio / vision score / roam dominance / kill conversion) they collect to pull your MMR one direction or something? For example... if you have a 8+ CS/min, clearly you aren't an iron player. If you have 2 CS/min, clearly you aren't a gold player either.

Would be a far better experience if they put players in atleast a similair skill band. As much as I hard stomp silver players, I'm sure a legit new player probably gets hard stomped by Silver players too. They have the data, why wouldn't they use it? Makes no sense to me. I thought they wanted to fix this for new players?

Think they are "fixing" it for the new season. Don't quote me on this, though.

Isn't it better to give them MMR so more MMR gets injected into the system, thus making matchmaking better at both Challenger and Bronze?

Because somewhere in silver is the average MMR of the playerbase. The % drop off of the ranked pie after Bronze and Silver is massive.
