    The problem with malady on TF is that you usually unload his magic damage (Pick a Card, Wild Card) BEFORE you finish people off with autoattacks. That makes the MR shred fairly negligble.

    Thinking about it, I don't think I would consider malady on any champion at all.

    Teemo maaaaaaaaaybe. I'd probably prefer wits end over it.
    It's ranks slightly above Nashor's tooth in my book.

    Honestly, I was looking at putting both on Elise, just because They look like they'd offer utility for both her forms, especially a Nashor's Tooth since she's Coolddown based when in Spider form.

    Then I thought of items like an Abyssal Specter, or Athene's Unholy Grail, and realized I'm still kind of an idiot.

    My sincere apologies to the people I played with yesterday. I was really, really tired and probably shouldn't have logged in to LoL at all without mainlining caffeine.

    You couldn't have done worse then me as blitzcrank in that KKK premade draft. Although technically it wasn't my fault MF could push like a retard, out-farm mystary and stand behind minions the whole day not even giving me the opportunity to get one decent grab in lane. The bad grabs however were.

    Leona is unfortunately a good counter to Blitzcrank because she wants to get grabbed, it saves her the trouble of landing her own skill shot.

    New fiora skin got a splash. They also gave her a proper dress to fix the legs clipping through the skirt:

    New ryze skin:

    Apparently his Q is fired out of the cannon on his back.

    Ward skins available on test realm. INCLINE: Ward skins can be bought with IP. DECLINE: Ward skins aren't permanently unlocked, you buy them for a period of time.

    Ward skins have custom animations:

    Ward skins temporary? Seriously? Fuck that shit, even if you can buy them with IP.

    The Ryze skin is pretty cool I must say and I also expect to see lot more Fiora players, just as Bunny Girl Riven brought on a ton of Riven players.

    Is Trynda a good counter for Fiora? Had a game where I picked Garen and the enemy Fiora obliterated me. I suppose this happened because of her ultimate and her counter move. And I thought that perhaps an auto attacker like Trynda with his five second immunity to damage could counter her.

    I think you will have a real hard time early as Tryndamere. The first couple of levels she will out-damage and out-sustain you, but if you survive till 6 without out a severe disadvantage you will out scale her.
    Jax is the best counter, E completely negates the ult.

    Yeah, sucks that they're temporary... Riot coming up with something along the lines of "we're testing the posibility of ward skins aswell as 'renting' content." Forums lashed out pretty hard on renting content, so I don't think we're gonna see that again. Hopefully not.

    I'm not sure about Trynd. If he didn't get behind pre-6 I guess. *shrug*

    Jax shits on Fiora, and Malphite sort of outlives her, untill she's low enough for ult-E-ignite combo. That's the only 2 hard counter I can think of right now.

    EDIT: Mystary beat me to it. On a side-note, take most things you read on that counterpicking site with a healthy dose of skepticism .

    Singed. Your main source of damage isn't ripostable. You can get early armor. Post-6 you should have no problems vs her whatsoever as you'll also be able to out-sustain.

    Cloth+pots->ninja tabi->Glacial Shroud->whatever and you should be golden vs fiora.

    Don't trade melee attacks with her. Just mega adhesive and kite with poison. Fling into turret for lulz if you want. Ninja tabi are ridiculously good vs fiora, as the passive damage reduction works on her ultimate as well.

    I decide to jump into ranked for the first time in a billion years, ok the team looks solid although going ashe+taric against blitz+ezfail isn't my idea of an ideal lane match-up. Then my ISP decides its time for it to be unreliable as fuck and I get disconnected, surprisingly the only websites I can access are the codex and google with the connection technically working fine according to windows. Well there go my GRUNKERs and minions didn't even begin to spawn.

    Maybe I'm going to main Lulu for a while, she seems somehow op with all that versatility, or at least really fun. I see Jax running at our MF, well you're not going to stun anyone, you're a Squirrel for 2.5 seconds, also now you're dead. Oh Chogath is surrounded by 5 people, let's make him even bigger which also doubles as CC, and also shield him so I can cast my slow from afar. The only problem is that not many ADC's understand what I can or can't give them. "Heal me lulu! OMFG NOOB!" (why did you start Doran's Blade anyways, you didn't think Soraka Ezreal are going to harass you)

    Yeah, again, only died a twice due to miscasting my CC on Olaf (derrrrrrrrp). It seems like there's something Lulu has for any situation. Chasing them, well let's give Malphite some MS so he can ult them, oh it seems like Fizz wants to kill Ryze, not on my watch and also Ryze can shoot you because Pix gives vision, Pantheon ults, well it seems like I'll just wait here and disable him so he dies. Fizz wants to trollpole away, doesn't happen, you're Squirrel now and will die. So strong, they should make more supports like Lulu who have a lot of activity to them. Then nobody would buy them because Alistar and Blitz are enough, let's buy more solotops.

    Speaking of which I bought Yorick since he's cheap now. Well I can't yet say how bullshitty I consider him because the opposing mundo just hung back and tried to CS with cleavers of his own volition without me doing much anything. Sadly we had 50 CS graves by 39 minutes...

    So... can anyone explain why Warwick suddenly went so out of favour to the point that practically nobody's using him like, ever? His Q got kinda hit, yeah, but he's still really strong.
