On a more serious note, EU west is following Gambit strats so hard. Everytime Diamond or Alexich plays something in LCS euwest follows instantly.

And as for his other question, no, Rumble was never ever played picked or banned competitively. Riot just threw a dice and it came up Rumble! :D

Sightstone is 475 gold for wards (475 for ruby crystal).
475/75 =~ 6 wards need to be placed for the item to start paying off, which in an ideal scenario (=2 wards placed at the same time, they are in perfect position for the whole duration) is 9 minutes.
In 9 minutes, Philo + Kage's net 486 gold, but with a substantially higher input cost, at 670 gold.
Hmm...
So Sightstone is the best gold-per-ten item available.
However, I personally like getting them all, so which to get first is the question.
I would argue for completing Philo and Kage's first, since the laning-phase of the game tends to be more stable, and if you get the Sightstone as the laning phase ends, it will very quickly start paying off, unless ofcourse you have a lane-opponent who's pinking a lot.

Edward kinda opened my eyes to this, that supports should generally be building as tanky as possible (which really just means get health) so that they can soak up some damage early/midgame and take some damage to bait a favorable fight. I believe philo + kages to be a dead style now if you're planning on sitting on them for long enough to make the gp10 on them worth it. Much rather go sightstone into locket like I always do.
Hey! How you doin'?

Dorans shield is incredibly strong on supports, Philo is strong still if you plan to build something out of it.

except thats not how you use sightstone, you can replace the wards as needed/move them around and then get fresh ones for free, so its even better

people still get philo because you can open with components and get it fast, and its pretty good in early lane
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.

Hail Democratic People's Republic of Teemo. I wish they'd just keep this skin on reddit, it's so much better than the original one they have now.

How do we feel that the r/starcraft theme links to LOL instead of DOTA2? Pretty subtle and funny.

I started playing Nautilus and Nunu top, a little controversial, since they're mostly junglers or supports and actually very rarely played, but they have a good laning phase imo.
Akali can be played top, Rumble, Gangplank and Elise aswell, even Blitzcrank. Hope that helps you a bit more :D

Got to say reddit/r/leagueoflegend is pretty funny too.

Ofcourse, but excessive moving around of wards will make the item run out of charges, and force you to back possibly more often than needed.
Please, keep in mind I'm not trying to argue heavily here, more like... investigate.
Hmm.
Some quick math shows that it takes about 15 minutes to get Philo-Kage, assuming 150g bounty (assist) and going for a somewhat risky start (bead+charm+2wards start).
It comparatively takes about 30 minutes to get Ruby Sightstone + Locket, assuming 1k bounty (dragons, towers, assists).
Since Philo-Kage gold is 9, it will take slightly more than half the time to get Ruby + Locket, quite close in total time.

Edit: Wait, forgot to calc wards-vs-G/10 after you get the sightstone skewing the results.
Under the assumption that two new ward gets placed every 2 minutes (instead of 3), and that they are free after the 13 minute mark (150 gold bounty) if you have Sightstone. This means the Sightstone is effectively generating 75 gold per minute after the 13 minute mark, while Philo generates 30 gold per minute after the 6 minute mark, and Kage's 24 gold per minute after the 15 minute mark.
Whoa is Sightstone good or what?
I'd still argue getting a Philo, though (as said by sob3k) not as much for the reason that it opens up Shurelias (really, who does Eleisa's or Ohmwrecker?) but that a quick happenstance assist, or accidental FB for the support can get it very quickly, on a bead+charm start.

(And since I'm stubborn, I'll probably continue getting Kage's as well, at least on the supports/in games where the Shard of true Ice active is decent (alistaarrrr?).)

Noticed this, before DIamond uses them there's no voli or nasus junglers, now they're in every single game as are hecarims

By the way if they really made en Eternal Leader Teemo skin it just might be the first RP I'll spend on the game
