It is most certaintly a disease, but it's fun occasionally. I should stop playing xD

How could you say this about our dear game? 

It's not a disease... it's more like drugs ... it gets you too addicted to it .... then it owns your soul and maybe our money while it is at it

I can't seem to get away from yasuo Dx

 

I play a couple of top games and meet him 1/2 of the time... Then I move to mid line and HE APPEARS AGAIN!! Dx

 

WHY YOU NO LEAVE ME ALONE YASUO!!! ;(

 

I'm starting to copy him whenever he says ASERYO!

Anyone else getting sick of Katarina in general?  I swear, she's in almost every ARAM and Ascension game I play.  I'm of the opinion that she needs some nerfs to make playing against her a little more fair in non-SR modes.  Soraka counters her hard (if you can silence her fast enough), but she has a major advantage over a lot of champs in teamfights, and a lot of the other modes are focused on them.  If you can't insta-gib or stun her, she melts over half of your team.

 

That said, anyone got any good tips for playing against her, aside from counter picks?  I don't play ranked, so that's not really an issue.

hmmm in Aram .. you just have to pick a champion like her .... or pick someone with really strong cc ... In ascension: I always ban her, fizz, fiora and akali (one is usually banned by the other team).

Well tbh I always call her the ap version of master yi .... and that's not wrong actually... she just needs a peel to go super strong ... the only way to face her is cc and only cc since she's too squishy ... especially stuns ... 

Oh btw play ranked since the worlds are starting today so technically the season will be finished after a month or two.

 

 

That aside, when I play against katarina ... I just ask my mid and jungler (since I am usually adc) to keep tabs on her (in other words, jungler just babysit mid).... make the top and bot sure to ward the river so that she doesn't roam

once I told my supp to leave me to solo bot after lvl 3 and go gank mid (it was a blitz)

its because hes the new Yi in season 2 if you wanted to destory pugs then you just went Yi and now its Yasui hes got a high skill cap but you dont need that much skill to play him at a low level

Wow, your Tris carried pretty hard.  As for new champs, I never play PvP games with them after I just unlocked them, it just pisses people off and I get reported for being bad.  I usually play at least 5-10 AI games with a champ before I play PvP with them so I can get their basic mechanics down.  Of course, there's ARAM, and that's actually how I've learned a lot of champs (Thresh, Sona, Nami, Kayle...the list goes on), but I generally wouldn't recommend playing PvP with new champs.

I actually did pretty good with Gnar's first match (12-2-12), but this champ...man, the combat mechanic is just...weird...

Isn't he relatively similar to Syndra in the sense that he summons pets, and his abilities modify what they do? Seems pretty hard to secure kills with, at least on paper. I haven't played a game against or as him, so I'm just basing my judgement off of his ability summaries on the LoL wiki.

Except that you have to stay pretty close to make those lazy soldiers work (cant seem to outrange anyone), and the E has 2sec delay for some reason (unlike J4 that you can dash to the sword right away after placed it down)

Well, that's surprising.  I expected Azir to be OP as hell when he was released, but he sounds...not even worth playing right now.  Rito, plz buff, Azir doesn't even lift.

Just wait for those korean diamond players to master that champ, he is probably OP as hell but no one has mastered him yet.

Thing with champs like braum was that he was easy to play, so at the beginning everybody was already saying that he was OP, just give it some time:p

Posted

Azir is pretty fucking strong. He has no place in a team really though, and gets blown up easily. 

He is the type of champ that wait until everyone else jumped into combat then throw skill in hoping for a last hit.

And yeah, he has almost no run-away skill (WQE sucks badly, and ulti only work on certain champ/area), so he can easily get killed.

Posted

I have some friends of mine who bought Azir and played him ... only one seemed to have got the hang out of it. Azir is strong, has too much burst damage , but most of the time of the laning phase , you should just farm and poke all the time and have as many soldiers around you as possible ... also in team fights he pretty much hopes to get assists not kills as he will just stay away and then boob three soldiers and go with them then use his ulti, wait for the cds and then attack again. He's pretty hard to use. Gnar's much easier. But I hate how Gnar wasn't seen that much in ranked but people are playing Azir when they haven't even mastered him .....

Crazy enough, my bad luck for ranked match started right when I was trying to get my 3rd win for ranking up to Gold V. I just kept losing and losing, and now I'm Silver III (nearly drop down to IV).

The Bronze army will haunt me forever, I guess...

Murphy's Law, man.  You can't win, you just can't.  Almost every single one of my good games have been in normals, and with Blind Pick to boot.  As soon as I get matched with people for ranked, I get crap teammates and somehow play slightly worse.  Dunno why, but that almost always seems to happen.  Also, in general, I've encountered more toxic players in ranked games than in normals or ARAM, surprisingly.  I wish I could just get an elo boost and ditch Bronze.  Elo Hell in Bronze is real.

Well you play slightly worse because you are stressed and people are toxic because they are stressed too... people treat ranked like they are putting their life on the line ... when you enter a game, you might find someone who's so stressed because he's playing his series so he will mess up then he will flame his team so he could say that it wasn't his fault and his nervousness that made him lost the game. Another one might have been losing many games in a row so he will just turn toxic whenever he loses another game because instead of climbing, he's falling down. So he will just flame , flame and become toxic... so to all these players out there: relax, never give up, play smartly , know this is just a game and know what you might win games and lose others. Bronze hell isn't really real ... do you know why? because you are matched with and against bronze players, it's not like your teammates are all bad and your enemies are all good .... you will have noobs on your team and they will have noobs on their team ... it's a matter of how things turn out

Anyone got any tips on using the post-rework Sona?  Not really sure how all of the changes affected her gameplay, so if I could get a few pointers that'd be great.  She's the only true support I can play decently, aside from Nami and Thresh, so I kinda need to keep basic knowledge of how to play her.

Post-rework Sona emphasizes much more on having "moments of power" rather than her previous "hidden power" via her aura passives; they have essentially removed these passives and instead given them actives.

Her Power Chord passive mechanic stays the same though (Q bonus damage to Sona's auto attack, W reducing 20% enemy damage, E slowing enemy)

Here are some specifics:

Q: Instead of having that flat AD/AP boost, now empowers nearby ally's next auto-attack to deal bonus damage

W: Instead of flat Armor/MR boost, now shields and heals the most wounded nearby ally (heal is increased based on % missing health)

E: Instead of flat speed boost, now gives a bigger initial burst of speed and extends its duration for Sona the more allies you touch with the speed aura.

R: No change (I think :P)

Some tips

***Due to the nature of her active auras, positioning is key to post-rework Sona. The Q auto attack empower, W shield, E speed boost only apply when you touch your allies with your aura. Stay nearby your ADC/team to give them the aura actives whenever you use your abilities, but be careful not to be too close to them all the time when there's like an Orianna on the enemy team just waiting to use Shockwave

Q

(Requires synergy + positioning): When you know your ADC is going to auto-attack harass the enemy champion (such as when enemy champion is moving in to last-hit a minion), position yourself so that you can Q the enemy while also giving your ADC the auto-attack empower. Sona Q + Sona Power Chord + Caitlyn Sona-Q-Empowered-Headshot = rekt'ed. Just don't get hooked by that darn Thresh when you move in to Q.

W

(Requires judgment): Use shield to prevent harass. Also the heal is now increased based on % missing health, so it is possible to bait the enemy to over commit. Be careful not to go OOM.

E

Pretty much the same as before, use it to chase/escape, just don't leave your teammates behind by not being in range to give them the speed boost.

Really.  Guess he doesn't fit into the meta that well now, since almost everyone in the current meta has some type of hard CC or dash that make it quite easy to get away from him if you know his skillset.

Yeah, all the champs that are based on movespeed like Singed, Garen, Hecarim, Volibear are so depressing to play at this time. 

All it takes is one simple slow (and everybody's kits have slows these days)/CC/dash for the enemy to disengage and you end up looking like a total noob xD
