I do want to use 9/2 but the rumor of it being reduced to 5 pots max....makes me not want to use this strategy, why should I use it if it is going to get nerfed?

May I also ask: When early game laning, is it better to focus on getting CS as much as possible? Or try to harass to force them out of lane? Or both?
Regarding the imbalance, hilarious to see Zergs defending themselves....

yes they announced to reduce the number of pots to 5 and increase the cost of the elixir of fortitude to 350 (basically both buildpaths are worthless after that.

and both - thats the difficulity to balance around both aspects cs as much as possible while harrassing the enemy

Hi guys, for the Executioner mastery, it affects both physical and magical damage, correct? Surely not true damage also! haha

In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

What runes are people using on Shen toplane? I've seen AD red/quints armor yellows and MR blues, as well as hybrid reds, armor yellows MR blues and hp quints, what do you guys prefer and why?

You could try out rejuv bead/faerie charm + pots + ward. Note that the pot limitation is also only for 'same type of pots' - so you could have 5 pots and 4 mana pots (I wouldn't really recommend that many mana pots on anyone, though.)

I run one of four pages on Shen, depending on the matchup:

I always run armor seals and MR glyphs. Period. CDR just isn't Shen's forte, it will more than likely make him run out of energy in a 1v1 situation.

If it's someone I can bully by throwing swords at them and not actually engaging, Hybrid pen marks and AP Quints can press this advantage (and AP really isn't awful on Shen overall)

If it's someone I can fight by going all-in/extended trades, I run AS marks, AD quints. AS marks make it easier to pick up a second proc of ki strike in an extended trade. Hybrid pen marks would also be effective here.

If it's someone who can bully me, I run AD marks (increase the window for last hitting so it's easier to sneak in last hits while avoiding being bullied) and either armor or MR quints based on who's bullying me. (The armor quint page uses scaling MR glyphs, since it's a physical bully.)

Can someone confirm if Zac's jump is a channel? Can it be interrupted? I was trying to stun him out of it and he jumped anyway.

its a channel but you can interupt it any time you want to jump away earlier (I think if you get stunned it doesnt count as an intentional itnerupt)

If it works like Vi's Q the channel should be interrupted and the spell put on cooldown if cc'd by a stun or root.

If you start with a ward as mid where do you put it and when? I have little experience with this role.

Your blue side [their red side] anywhere between the lane bush and their wraiths, depending on whether you're playing passive or exerting a lot of dominance on the lane, respectively.

Would it be the opposite if it was a red first jungler or would you want to ward your blue side earlier in that case for possible lvl 2 gank? I know were getting close to specifics here but I'm looking for general rules of thumb to build a framework out from, you're answer was very helpful so far

I'm thinking about playing Anivia support for fun. Which ADC would go best with Anivia support?

Caitlyn and Draven, I'd wager.

They go with anything and can win lanes by themelves, so it should be k and you could sit around and be a useless bird without losing the game. Probably.

So I started playing Sejuani, cos she is stupidly strong. But I'm getting a very very bad first clear. Is this normal?

No, Sej's first clear should be fairly average. What's your skill order, runes, masteries, etc? (oh and jungle route too)
