Idk, saw a pro play him on stream (I want to say Jankos? but I'm not sure, it was an EUW game on Perkz stream) and it seemed busted, so I tried it out. I've only played a few games on him, but feels like you just have so much control over the game before the other guy really has much purchased power. I lost one game really hard on him, but I kind of inted and executed as poorly as possible. I imagine Nunu is probably busted right now as well for the same reason, although I havn't seen him personally. He might just be a better pick than Gragas. And I think this is what makes mummy and other tanks so strong right now too; he can't really get bullied as hard as before due to delayed item spikes of everyone else. | ||

The funniest thing I've seen on Challenger streams is the continuing popularity of ADCs being played as supports. AP Twitch is the biggest pick, but right now I'm watching support Draven almost 1vs1 a few mid laner (it's Apocalypse, but still). | ||

You just keep yourself and the other jungler poor while snowballing your assassin and he 1v9s. You get your assassin their Mythic first and the other guy can't lane, then you just roam around the map with the assassin and 2v8 before the other guy gets in the game. Their powerspikes are just so much stronger and come faster with lane gold. Its basically like guaranteeing that your mid gets to play with a second keystone while theirs doesn't. | ||

Seems like tank junglers are pretty good. Especially if they got some self healing. | ||

I'm really really not a fan of this item rework, combined with completely not touching drakes/rift herald from last season. I imagine low Elo this season will become this absurd clusterfuck combination of people who have no fucking clue what the hell is going on, and people who do but are just bad. | ||

It's Elo not ELO. Reeeeeeee - sorry, pet peeve I fixed it for you :D But yeah all the norms I've played have been hard stomps in either direction. Also is AD Kat a thing or was I just getting hard trolled? | ||

I accidentally bough relic shield instead of doran shield in a game yesterday cause I didn't look close enough lol, took me like 3 minutes to realize what I had done | ||

I think it's strictly worse than AP Kat, but I'd call it "viable." https://u.gg/lol/champions/katarina/items I played against one Katarina that went Duskblade first. She won, and dealing with her invisibility was pain in the ass, but we'd probably lose if she was building AP too. I think it's safe to say that Riot will nerf some of the new items into oblivion because of one or two champions instead of gutting those problematic champions. Maybe not Katarina, but surely someone will become disgustingly overpowered. Ezreal and Yi did that in the past so maybe they'll do that again. | ||

Ezreal and Yi did that in the past so maybe they'll do that again Some items are just stupid though, they have to be nerfed or even reworked. Imo Guinsoo is going to dominate in its current form, it vastly favours non Crit ADC, but is also very exploitable by Yas/Yone... 2 DoT items that are together stronger than old Liandries makes Brand stupid strong, I've heard two challenger plays say he could probably be played competitively. The new Lich Bane seems to be designed to be the new Akali Kata item, they make far better use of it than anyone else. | ||
