I take job my job as Assistant Janitor seriously and will in turn insist you take being my assistant seriously. Since we don't have a proper bathroom yet, your first task will be to clean the corner we have all been going in so far.

Well he did just have a kid, he's probably used to cleaning up crap at this point.

Oh ho ho ho ZACH, hilarious. Although just in case people were wondering, at this age it's less like crap and more like Dijon mustard.

You didn't post your interest. :3

I'll put you down for Assistant to the Janitor's Assistant.

I can't support a family on that salary!!

I'm kinda curious as to who gets those elusive Board Member positions though...
Aren't Board Members usually the old farts of the company?

Put me down for research and occasional quirky ideas.

Should another directorship be needed, let me nominate the post of Chief Logician and Ultramodern Lane-phase Emergent Strategy Scientist.

I would very much like to help whenever possible on something like this, as at least attempting to innovate is always something I've liked doing. And a good idea for a title somewhere would be the Acquisitor of Summoner Spells, Hatred, and Overly Large Egos (I just wanted to try coming up with something

)

You main Viktor, farming ain't anything complicated, really. And yeah, somebody mentioned it already, but integrating casting of stuff like that, or simply spreading the knowledge about stuff like warmogs/locket/randuin's being such good items in terms of EHP and cost-effectiveness on an ADC could certainly be implemented to MwM.
Hell, old guy Monte could even make one of the shows about teaching people how to theorycraft properly.

This is right up my alley, I fucking love doing random shit, so why not do random shit in the name of testing people's ideas that may actually have merit. This may be the cure to my boredom+champion/build ADD that makes me take long breaks from the game.

Test report:

Mechanics:

Ohmwrecker has an effective range of ~900.
Spirit Visage does not affect mana regeneration.
Shaco's clone applies on-hit effects, but not Muramana.

Bans were Olaf, Amumu, Malphite, Shen, Blitzcrank, and Kha'zix.

After a previous successful test of IBG Kassadin, Soniv made some refinements and we picked up JayBrunage and his Tank Fiddlesticks. The game started off poorly with BlackPaladin disconnected, but after a few minutes he reconnected.

JayBrunage was top versus a Gangplank. In order to counter Fiddlestick's low health, he ran health per level Seals and flat health Quints, and started with a Flask and a ward (an opening that will unfortunately be impossible if PBE changes remain as they are now). He quickly built Chalice, which he observed helped his mana issues considerably. He rushed Frozen Heart immediately thereafter, but afterwards theorized a Giant's Belt in between would have been extremely helpful.

Soniv quickly became able to solo Ryze 1v1 as Kassadin, despite a heavy MR bias in Ryze's itemization. Instead of peeling for Blackpaladin's Ezreal he largely played a typical Kassadin, except a significantly tankier one than normal. However, with Miscue peeling on Nami and the tankiness of Fiddlesticks this was not an issue.

It remains to be seen if another researcher can make IBG work. It was posited that Soniv is simply a beastly mid and our opponents did not stand a chance.
