So, anyone playing League of Legends?

FFS, almost have enough IP for Trollibear. Why you do this to me Rito?

 

[Azael]

If Riot has included aspects of Angus into this champ, they officially rock. Would just need to make human Nocturne skin for them to be bestest company ever.

 

[Markman]

WTF Heal Meta. I thought Ignite was a counter to Heal but they made it to cleanse Ignite.

CLG now playing with Tank Soraka mid with Heal summoner and bot lane with 2 Heals.
Wow Riot

 

[Renegen]

Double heal is pretty toxic, I had to go up against it. They should remove the movement speed bonus from it, or maybe they'll nerf it by giving only half the amount on yourself and full on your teammate.

 

[Erzherzog]

The whole point to ignite was to counter heal, Riot made the game backwards and thanks to that we get shit like Soraka mid in a fucking competitive match. Were people really that upset about ignite? Now we're going to end up with a stale anti-playmaking meta, hell that second CST/CLG match was an abortion too, though what extent that is Coast's fault is to be determined. (I blame nintendude. I always blame nintendude.)

And I improve to 18 and 5 in Team Builder primarily practicing as Lissandra and Ziggs, wish ranked was this easy.

Which one? I really can't watch even a small portion of those matches, but this sounds interesting.

 

[Erzherzog]

CLG ran Soraka against Coast's LeBlanc, and just healed all the damage, infinite sustain GG.

And Riot claims to be against infinite sustain laning. Fucking assholes I REALLY don't like this.

 

[Markman]

Nidalee takes the award for the most faggot champ pick this patch.
Flash/heal, ability heal and cougar faggotry with cheezy spears from miles away.

And ye that Soraka + 3 heal summoners is OP. Announcer should go PentaHEAAAAL.
Problem is there is less kills(even in competitive, like 10-20 kills during the whole match) and makes junglers job alot harder cause you need shitload of damage you dont have to kill someone.
Mid/top/supps usually go for ignite and it helps in securing those kills, now cheezy mids like Nid/Ziggs etc pick heal that actually removes the ignite and gives em 30% movement speed boost under 2 seconds.
like wtf
lets play the whole game farming and avoiding eachother
ffs riot

 

[Erzherzog]

Jesus Christ Soraka has become a must ban.

FUCKING SORAKA. A FUCKING MUST PICK OR BAN CHAMPION.

 

[Renegen]

Dumbest meta for sure, I hope it doesn't take 1-2 months to patch it, oh who am I kidding.

 

[PlanHex]

I still say the worst part of the meta in regards to competitive play is the fact that every game now starts with those boring as fuck tower pushes in top and bot.
Even before, when teams started the game by doing that it was usually a sign that the game was going to be boring crap.

 

[Mystary!]

Bald, big shield + no weapon? Looks like a Singed skin. Instead of poison he leaves a trail of poros to "watch his back".

 

[curry]

You guys should switch to dota2

 

[Markman]

No thx, I give Gaben enough money as it is.
Will be fun to see how TF2 and Dota2 will play on that Steam gamepad tho.

 

[curry]

No thx, I give Gaben enough money as it is.

It's free.

 

[Azael]

So is LoL. Unless you spend money on superficial stuff. Same as Dota 2 in other words.

Soraka mid is kind of boring and while Heal might be too strong right now, it might at least open up botlane for more champs. Or not.

 

[Markman]

I guess those $80 million they made last year on it are all from charity organisations.

Learning a new MOBA is too much of a commitment, I'd rather play some other derpy games instead of spending several thousand hours learning DOTA2. Remember that people play other games too instead of MOBA type games. And Im not that sure that I need LoL replacement.
There's Strife coming out soon and Heroes of the Storm that dont require all worlds knowledge to enjoy em and I will try them out as soon as they are available. But Dota2, hell no.


Gonna derp a bit more ranked in the coming days, hopefully my Blitz plays will carry me. lol
I remember a guy in Season 1 that played only Mundo and got to top 10. Also Rain Man playing only Teemo.
Mid is an issue now cause I dont have a AP carry that Im that good with and they fucked my Gragas. WTF do I build on him. Top I can Malph, WW, Cho while AD bot is a que dodge.
Still not that bad, I am amazed that I am this high.

I got a new support build that pretty much focuses on HP bloat, rushing Face of the Mountain even before boots and sightstone.
Works pretty good and people arent willing to gank you that much.
Top bans from me these months: Kha, Nidalee and Tresh. Soraka could qualify for a spot there tho.

Braum's Q has apparently being revealed by a Rioter. What his Q does is if someone auto attacks Braum, they are knocked back. It probably involves his shield somehow. Seeing his art where he only carries a shield and has a big smile on his face, his archetype really seems like the "protector" traditional type of support. That is unless he throws his shield and decapitates people or something. Really excited that we get a new peeling support like Janna.

 

[Erzherzog]

I really, really, really hope his kit involves some form of a taunt. With VO about mustaches.

 

[Cadmus]

So I reinstalled after half a year and it seems to me the game is still heavy on those fucking boring "bruisers" with gazilions of HP and life steal/heal..

 

[Erzherzog]

Dear god teambuilder is matching me with high silver/low gold players making it damn near impossible to practice anything other than my main roles. I mean is nice than I actually hold my own usually, but it's like getting kicked in the teeth over and over constantly playing people with superior mechanics.

 

[Cadmus]

whats this teambuilder??

 

[Erzherzog]

Queue up with a guaranteed lane, ends all the "I HAV MID LOLZ" at team select.

Generally worth it.

How will you learn otherwise? By playing with players worse than you?
I love it when there's a high skilled player against me. Mind games orgasm, Im glad when I get outplayed and it forces me to plan from another angle next time.
