I just had an awesome game, all turrets were down but 1 and we were acing each other on ground zero.
Smart game, except for the fact that i was late game fed trynda and none of them would buy armor for some reason.
I've tested ap ez lately(i've been playing him for ages as ad).. he is just weaker vers of ad one, a bit higher burst, overall less dps.
AP ez is weaker early game compared to ad one, and very similar lategame(requires different playstyle though).
oh, and ap one has nice aoe burst(W+R), and when you add rylai you slow their atk speed and movement speed, which is nice for chasing and escaping.. sadly - ad ez can slow too(if you get phage)
Final Verdict:
AD is superior, but slightly.
I fucking hate playing as Ez. It's not even a matter of doing well or not in a game, i just find his play style boring as all hell.
A shame too, i really wanted that awesome skin :(
I'm stuck playing Jungler for my team so i've been playing Jungle Ezreal. Doing pretty well in 1300-1400 elo and normals on my smurf since people can't seems to deal with his early ganks.
I play on North America server. My account is Takchiki.
West Europe is way better, just sayin.
Meh, I don't feel like leveling another account.
North America gives it to west Europe up the behind.
Need more GWers on NA server. Me and Luci dominated some games last night. Nado, I'll add you. I'm on now if anyone else is.
EDIT: Also, I just picked up Varus the other day, and already got a penta. I tried to print-screen it, but when I posted it in PS, it was just a black screen. Since when did they fuck that up?
Just started playing. Currently level 10. NiquidLitrogen is the name. NA btw.
Ori free week - i can finally successfully lvl up my acc on EU east - it is one of my best champs(the others being ez, fiora, riven, vlad, ryze) :D
EUW nick - Xelbair
EUNE nick - Xelbair3k
also - when is the goddamn pulsefire skin gonna get released?
When they stop breaking the game every other night. >_>Quote:

Bitch server anyway, EU-W is where it's at.
EUNE was working fine when EUW was broken hard, sir.
EUNE - Pulsefire Ezreal released. HE IS AWESOME!.
Xin, eve and twitch remake next patch @.@
How do i carry this?
http://i46.tinypic.com/21o6713.png
That looked pretty painful. That Graves be carryin'.
If you want to carry games in 1300-1400 elo, don't Jungle. It's better to play AP mid or AD carry and stomp your lane which put you far enough to make a difference in team fights. As a jungler you'll be behind even levels anyways and even if you're fed, you probably won't be that far ahead. I got to 1700 elo rather easily just playing AP mid, but on my sub account i'm just 1360 right now and having a hard time getting higher from just playing jungler.
More like play duo with a bud, you mid and he jungles. It's the recipe that ensures the least amount of uncontrollable shit, if you lose that game then you were probably outplayed.Quote:

Yay, my 1337 wins.
Either that Lee or that Trist must have carried extremely hard
Tristana was 22-6-20 and that Lee Sin was 10-8-12.
Trist, considering the gold amount.
Zyra is definitely going to get nerf in the next patch, she's so OP right now. I've won every single game that I've played Zyra so far (17~) and 4 of them i was jungling with her.
Still haven't found many people who can play her well though.Quote:

She's actually extremely simple to play, just looks complicated. You're better off maxing Q first in most situation and just focus on landing E and then you can just press WWQ to spawn 2 plants and that combo will take 1/3 to half hp off almost every other AP in the game. You're pretty much guaranteed to kill anyone from half health if you have ignite and/or Ult available. She might get more complicated to play if her numbers ever get nerfed, but as it is they are way too high so there's very variation that you actually have to do in order to win lane.
Even though I dislike her name, I'm excited and anxious to play Diana. Her pull and shield are interesting, but her Crescent Slash looks so damn beautiful. And that ult.
It's too bad she only has one skin (or will, when she is released). Does anyone know why they stopped releasing two skins as the debut?
The official reasoning is that they can put more effort onto one skin, which sound like bullshit considering Darius and Varus bonus skin.
Diana extra skin is pretty nice though. I've been playing her a lot on PBE and she feels a bit too strong at the moment. For starter, her stat gain is extremely high (+90 hp per level) and she has both armor/mr scaling per level which makes her stat strong as a tank. Her Q scale at .8 AP ratio and is on a 6 second CD without any CD reduction. Her shield damage is .6 ratio and the shield has a .4 ratio, but it activate twice. The pull is not bad as a CC, even though the radius is a bit small, but combine with the rest of her kit, it's just stupid. Her ultimate is 20/16/12 sec CD regularly, but has no CD if use after Q and the ratio is .6.
A level 9 Diana with 100 AP and blue (5Q, 2W,1E,1R) for example would be able to. Q for 340 damage, activate shield to block 120 damage twice while dealing 168 damage and then ult for 160 damage . If they flash away, you can instantly pull them back with E and follow up with a 2nd Q/R combo for another 500 damage. This is not even considering that her passive also scale at .6 AP so that would've been another 170 bonus damage every 3 attacks. If they are still somehow alive, you can still activate the R that is off CD even if you miss your 3rd Q.
Zyra is broken.
Cassiopeia must counter her extremely well because i never had that much of a problem with zyra. Her ult's range is fucking dumb but that's about it.
She probably does, that won`t stop her from being TOO good in teamfights. She honestly doesn`t has a con. I have like 3 pages of win streak at this point.
really? i found zyra to be kinda balanced. I never lost/won a game due to zyra.
The biggest issue with her is that if she`s fed she`s a huge factor to her team, if she feeds she`s still a huge factor to her. Anyway, she`s losing movespeed and plant damage next patch. I think not many people have noticed this because instead of having a horribly op factor(s) ala relase xin, she has SLIGHTLY op factors in everything about her, she has a little bit too much range, a little bit too much damage, a little bit too much utility, etc. when you add all of it, you have one scary ho.
Diana is fun to play - and she is pretty strong. her Q is suprisingly easy enough to hit, ulti has very short cd and she farms like a madman.
also her passive works on turrets - late game that is extra +500/600 dmg once per 3 hits(without lichbane).
Zyra ners: her move speed, her q, her w, her e AND her r... lol
More importantly, dual plants do reduced 75% dmg one a single target.
They butchered her pretty harshly, i wonder how viable she'll remain.
She's an awful mid though, don't know why people are insisting on playing her as such. She's a jungler through and through, maybe a solid top laner as well but that's it.Quote:

Dafuq, Katarina rework out of nowhere.
Yeah, even though Soraka was next in line :/ oh well, the new champion looks cool.
Aside from the blatant rip-off of Akali's Q, the Kat rework excites me, mostly for the animation upgrades. I dislike the new sound that plays when you shunpo, and the reduction of overall damage with bouncing blades, but having the spammable aoe makes for much better presence in team fights, like the patch preview suggested. I was also glad to see that they didn't exactly do away with killer instincts, even though I generally forgot to use it after laning phase. I hope the rework includes new splash art for the red card skin.
Where did you read that Soraka was next, by the way? I'd like to see what future plans they have for other classic champions. I mean, I assume their goal is to rework them all, but having a guideline is really helpful. Although, now that I think about it, wasn't Soraka already reworked once?
Nope - Soraka got small changes(can't infuse herself, infuse dosen't give her any mana when cast on ally) etc.
I'm kinda happy with kat change - i love that champ - nice job they did with killer instincts - but i'll miss its passive effect(+16 or so dmg to any attack/skill)
Soraka`s only getting model remake, her kit stays the same, it`s been in development for about 2 years now.Quote:

Not bad.jpg
Wait till you get the feeders, i finally convinced my friends to do ranked with me, we won 9 matches in a row till we reached 1530, then we lost one cause one of them got cocky, then he raged and quit, fml.
Silver elo fuck yeah~
Anyone else buying rengar on day 1? I'll be buying riot points for the first time since i'm out of ip right now. He just looks amazingly fun to play with.
Gold elo currently, i wish my partners will man up an attempt going for plat :/
Now with first blood in a few minutes!Quote:

Not sure if people have seen this, but it's pretty handy if you're looking at buying a skin.
WHY do they tease me with that twitch skin!?
That viewer fucking sucks, use lolking.net instead.
So how`s rengar? he doesn`t seems too strong in my experience. I`m playing shyv in 3`s, op as balls
Meh, incredibly ridiculous lvl 1 burst damage but average through the rest of the game. I have yet to lose or win a game carried by a rengar.
Might be interesting in TT though, small map that can be easily covered by his ult and with bushes fucking everywhere.
Shitcunts nerfed my graves and made Mystic Shot more spammable...
Buffed ez FTW.
I wonder if Eve will become usable. Doubt it...
I fucking want to use her though, i have so much fun playing eve but she can't carry for shit.
Yo Uchess, what happened to that gold elo bro?
http://www.lolking.net/summoner/na/530311
Hasn`t updated, it`s 1540 in 3`s, i can`t play 5`s cause my fps is too low... :/Quote:

I can`t, 05 fps is unplayable :(
TT uses less frames per second than SR?
So it appears, it IS smaller and only has 6 champs in it. i get around 40-50.
What about dominion? Or the proving grounds?
Don`t play dominion, proving grouds is a 50/50 chance.
EDIT: 1730!
I had fun lately with Swain - he has INSANE teamfight presence - you just can't ignore him.
He is sturdy, deals pretty nice dmg(albeit everything comes from DoTs) and you can't escape from him with last second flash :3
Swain is relatively strong, but he's rather weak as a mid versus strong pushers. His ability to CS and clear waves is really poor before his ult and is mediocre even after he gets it. A competent Malzahar for example would be 30 cs above swain by level 6 and continue to maintain a lead by pushing him to tower. It's one of the reason why he was more dominant as a top laner before his ult nerf.
my games with him usually ended with score like 9/0/7 or so - i was playing him like leblanc - farming champions instead of minions.
Read as: I was playing vs retards.
Swain's farm capabilities are fine btw, as long as he has blue buff. That and his late game are probably why we don't see much of him in competitive play.
I love to play vs pushers - i just last hit the minions, while they are open to ganks. I needed strong mid/top champ with hopefully cc that can handle akali and gragas.
Well played akali is nightmare for Ryze, and gragas is nightmare for ori.
If you go up vs Akali top: Jayce, Lee Sin, Garen all works.
Most high damage bruiser will beat her in trades before 6 if you throw a pink ward. As a side note, Jayce is probably one of the best top laner right now since he just does everything really well.
Gragas has been hidden OP for the longest time, it's only recently that people realize how strong he is from tournament picks. In general, high single target burst like Ryze will work, you need to be offensive and punish Gragas for certain mistakes. If he's using his body slam to last hit, harass him. If he's using body slam only to engage onto you, then try to coordinate a gank from the jungler and bait his escapes. His ult is getting a CD nerf with this next patch, but until then just try to remember that it's probably going to be up.
As you get to higher level plays, eventually you'll run into a situation where 1v1 kills at mid lane no longer happens. It'll turn into a farm fest with both mid playing really carefully and majority of the kills is the results of ganks.
Gragas is a nightmare for everyone.Quote:

In ranked team games it usually is farmfest at mid but gragas can still put out tons of damage(phreak(tm)) as harass.
Ezreal didn't really get buffed, not AD ezreal anyway. The mana reduction cost is tiny.
AP Ez got buffed, assuming you're god tier with him already.
This tiny mana reduction allows Ez to spam his Q more, W got changed - less size, more dmg with ap - still useless on ad ez.
W got changed because it was way too good on AD Ezreal. All of Q damage comes from the 1 total AD scaling anyways so you mostly rank it up by 2 to get it to the proper CD, because each rank only give 20 bonus damage. Each rank of W used to give 50 bonus damage up to a total of 280 base for 90 mana, that passes through minion and has a huge range. It also gave a 40% attack speed debuff to the enemy AD so you were pretty much guaranteed to win trade.
This build was fairly common among 1900+ elo for awhile and is the reason why everyone picked up Ezreal again, not because of Pulsefire. The only reason it got nerfed is because it's the dominant Ezreal build in every tournament for the past 3 months and they needed to nerf Ezreal/Corki/Graves who were the only AD carries that get picked in tournaments.
Posted that on reddit as well, so needless to say i agree with Double D.Quote:
Actually it was becoming the meta to max w even when playing AD Ez for the free poke potential
Has anyone been watching the regional? I can't pick a favorite right now.
I don't particularly care for any NA teams atm. They all play the same top picks in the same lane picks, it's getting kinda boring to watch.
I'm more interested in watching the Koreans and EU teams. Looking forward to seeing M5 and Azubu Blazes plays.
The new eve is totally viable, i can finally carry a game with her.
I've been having a lot of success playing her as an AP mid. Her ult is extremely powerful if you have the necessary amount of mpen and AP.
...say wut now? What's your nick in the NA server?
Do you have a EUW smurf btw?
You should just join us in the NA server :P
I have 2 account that i play.
The ranked one is at 1780~ and i only log in to play that with my duo partner.
The other one that i play more often is Zeroraven and i mostly play normals with my friends on that one. If you want to play with me add Zeroraven since i'm on that more often.
I tend to leave League on and go afk a lot though so i might not be there to take your invites.
Edit: I started playing Eve ap mid because of this post on the league forum
Try out his build, it's been working well for me.
I tested out AP eve vs hybrid eve(guinsoo trinity, bloodthirster, wits end, gunblade etc) - it was close call in fights but hybrid was a bit better - AP was able to NUKE target pretty hard, but hybrid eve was able to kill AP one - usually with 100-200 hp left - and surviving with lifesteal/spellvamp.
Hybrid one only suffers badly from cooldown on her E - catch her when its on CD and you can usually kill her, while AP one dosen't have such problems - but deathfire grasp's CD might be a problem.
AP one has stronger early game, but hybrid shines in midgame.
(testing consisted of 2 rounds in custom with my friend farming and fighting when we had same ammount of kills and creeps(approx), first i did hybrid and my friend went with ap then we switched.)
So there might be a new badge in S2 (Diamond).
I think the only one here who'd have a shot at that would be Nadouku, that bitch has massive elo :/
The new badges are kind of ugly btw.
I miiiiiiiiiiiiiight be able to get it in 3s.
You reeeeeeeeeeally won't.
Why not? im 1730 in 3s, thats plat in S1, and we only lost 2 matches, one cause my team is terrified of tryn and the other one cause my iq drops to 20 when facing lulu.
Check it out, new Chinese mmo.
Looks cool amirite?
crappy copy of lol i see. thankfully no one did this to DotA(except HoN which has GODAWFUL interface).
1850 for diamond, i`m soooo getting it.
Delusion, thy name is Uchess.
Lost 2 matches, teammate raged quit, OF COURSE!
Lol, i bought the resistance cait skin since the art looked so great but the model itself is ugly as fuck xD
Whatever though, it was like 1 euro
