Uhhh, yeah, that's why I was confused by you.

Jax shows a base MR of 31 to me in a practice game. You sure you're not throwing in runes / masteries into the mix there?

I just read the tooltip and thought it was a terrible skill, and never gave it a second though ><
Playtesting ftw I suppose. I think I still prefer levelling Leap Strike before Empower though, the mobility of a sub-5 second CD Leap Strike is just too good to pass up. I'm totally leaving CS for last now though (after getting an early point in it).

It's up to you; I max Empower because I like smashing people really fast and it's also great for farming, especially in the jungle.

Been playing Anivia to change it up from my typical Ashe/Nasus/Sivir rotation and doing somewhat alright. Tons of fun to play so I think I'll mess around with her for a bit.
Started with sapphire and built it into Rod of Ages after boots and Mejai's but I'm probably looking for an alternative. Was thinking Meki into Deathfire since the bird is really mana heavy and blue isn't always available. Any thoughts?
EDIT: Don't forget to add me - Mazer. I'll try to hit the channel up more often, it's been a while since I played with TL.
either don't be so nuke happy with frostbite or buy an archangels staff
i've been trying out chalice of harmony for mana on her its ok, but archangels is usually better
maybe you could stick with the catalyst until after you get the mejai's even though it loses time on the rod of ages.
this is what i've done the last couple of games and i havent had too many mana problems
(just my thoughts x: )

I feel like I wrote a guide on Anivia but I never linked it, derpityderp.
You need mp5pl seals and glyphs to abuse her as a nuker.
First item Guise
Second item Sorc Boots
Third item Zhonya (or any other AP item)
Be choosy at when you use your spells; most of the time you should be using to farm pre-level 6, at level 6 ideally you do something like R E R, then wait a bit, then Q Q E for the second half of the combo, but if you can't then just harass with R E R, it does a ridiculous amount of damage for cheap. Try to hog Golem if you can (get people to help you with it) to deal with mana issues. And then just stack AP AP AP AP. Your egg should be enough of a detriment to enemies in teamfights to keep you alive, unless you're wandering alone and ganked, but you really shouldn't be wandering alone anyways.
Edit:
Oh yeah, skills, max E (the double damage) first, followed by Q (skill-shot stun), wall after both Q and E are maxed, unless you feel the extra damage from Q is less important than the wall.

All champions classified as "melee dps" have 30 base MR but gain mr/level.
As far as i remember yi, jax, and maybe warwick have this bonus.
edit: actually the following champs gain mr/level:
Akali
Yi
Nasus
Jax
Garen
Morekaiser
Pantheon
Udyr
Tryndamere
Shaco
Katarina

So ugh, you have to click on items that have an active to use them. And there are hotkeys for items. And you can move them around.
Just learned all this in 1 game, fml.

Default is 1-6 and you can move them by dragging them into another slot.
Otherwise you can rebind them to wahtever you want

Do you jungle with Amumu at lvl 1?
|
Yeah, I never knew that. Always wondered why my hex items never did anything.
|
I jungle Amumu from level 1.

is there a possibility to detect invisible units without the 400 gold potion ? just played a 5v5 with teemo. two times i was invisible in one of the bushes and two times i got killed by katarina who just randomly ran by and made her ulti right next to me. also she didnt went into ANY of my plenty traps + she attacked zilean who was in the bush. there was no warwick, nida or anything else in this game who has the possibility to detect. it seemed really suspicious. she had like 24 3 2 at the end, owning us 1v1 but also 1v2.

that screenshot was recent. i posted it not to show how well i did but to show how consistently bad locust is. he really doesn't understand the game so don't listen to him. as for the haunting guise, i don't really have a set item build right now. i've been running lots of experimental builds but so far i like my AP build the best, even without the vamp.
also to heavonearth: lol clan x17.

Kat's ult lights up when an enemy is nearby even if you cant see them.

thank you so much. explains a lot
havent played kata ... but if she wont get nerfed in some of the next patches shes a must have.
|
I've not seen L0cust come even remotely close to beating me, and most of the times I play him I'm solo queueing. I don't think he's nearly as good as he thinks or might say he is.
|
so do you follow the guide from this forum for jungle amumu?
|
If it's Mog's post, nope. He doesn't jungle from the start. I open Cloth 5x potions and do the routine non-aura creep kills (returning to base to heal as needed), then at level 3 I go back to base to heal up and then kill golem, clear normal neutrals again, level 4/5 after base heal I kill Liz, gank if needed/can, etc. etc. Make HoG asap, then stack Sunfires. Whenever I feel there's a lull or I need speed I'll finish Treads, then resume stacking Sunfires. After around two Sunfires I turn HoG into Randuin's.
Edit:
Masteries I run 1/8/21 or 9/0/21, using mpen/mp5pl/mp5pl and Smite/Ghost. Skills I don't think I have a set order but I tend to level Despair more than Tantrum.
