they should just do whatever DoTA is, I cant remember whether its 2,3,4 seconds. The only reason I think they havent done this is because its a direct rip from DoTA. Its not like they dont already use the mechanic (mobility boots) so it couldve been done on any patch without a problem.
Summoners and Runes are a crutch for bad players anyway.
That was a way to balance blink dagger. It should be the same with flash. Now its no longer a real get out of jail free card.
I’m not getting into the flash argument because what I think has already been said, as for ghost it should be a 4 second timer with an option to get it up to 6 with a point in the talent tree. Make the point farther down maybe after 8 at least. This still makes ghost effective without someone running across the entire map with it on. Still a great ability but allows for more diversity.

I really don’t understand why people want flash removed from the game.
If you’re forced to use a summoner to get into or get out of a situation it’s not free. That’s a summoner you don’t have again for X amount of time. Or is there something I’ve been missing?

True but it doesn’t change the fact that it saves you from poor positioning and poor play. It is a get out of jail free card. So the summoner spell is a low risk high reward summoner spell and it is a bit OP.
If forced it then it is good but not as good as you think it is especially for champs that already have an escape.

I think the CD for flash is waaaaaaaaaaay to high. It should be like … 10 mins

how often is it really poor play and not a calculated “I’m taking a risk to get some reward, the risk is losing flash”. Yeah it can help scrubs out in a bind, but good players are weighing the risk of losing their flash cool down, just like good players are keeping track of flashes. If I want to gank a lane I always check if they have flash, and if I think flash will save them(it can’t always) I’ll ask if my ally if they have used it yet or to try and force it out before I get there. Seriously try playing this game as a squishie without flash anymore, have fun getting perma slowed/gap closered by jungles in the lane, the game would be even more passive early than it already is.
edit: I mainly play jungles/tanks/melee’s. Getting people who poorly position themselves is still easily doable even with flash, if I’m ganking and someones is past the river and they can’t double flash they are probably dead(unless my allies are in a position where they can’t do anything, and even then I’ll often get it). This is all without running flash myself 90% of the time. Same thing with a lot of mages, if I’m playing swain/sion/Malz/Annie and they poorly positioned I will mess them up regardless of flash with swain/malz/annie I’ll usually get the kill even if they flash…
edit again: Heck one of my favorite junglers is trundle who has no gap closer and no cc and doesn’t run flash and I can still generally gank people with flash.
I wish that flashed still popped projectiles. That would be so much fun again.

Alright, My Ez has greatly improved since I got your guys’ advice on how to build him.
Right now for Ez I start w/ Vamp scepter and go into wriggles lantern which seems to work out extremely well at the moment. I get the CD boots but after reviewing this thread I am reminded that I can get zerkers boots too, which I will try the next time I play. After boots I start my Tri force beginning with sheen, then phage, then zeal.
Now the question is this: After Triforce, I’ve been building Zhonyas Hour glass. The idea behind it is for the teamfights where I can throw my ult in there and it will do big damage since it takes from both his AP and AD. PLUS it gives me extra armor and the active.
Now I like that setup, but just because I like it doesn’t mean it’s good. Is building Zhonyas after Tri force practical, or should I drop the hour glass and go for IE/BT/ Black cleaver instead?
AND, if I DO drop hour glass, do I build IE, BT, or black cleaver first?
Drop Zhonyas absolute waste of money. Go for IE or BT depending on your money situation. Doing well go for IE doing just ok go BT.
Also if you want instead of vamp scepter go cloth armor 5 hp pots that way if you have a higher chance of staying in lane and taking harass damage. If you want the life steal though then just go dorans blade since it gives hp damage and life steal all stats ez benefits from early game.
Like R00ster said drop zhonyas since you get 0.9 per ability power raito as apposed to 1.0 from ad

Also I think solomid.net has a really good ez guide that you could reference for builds and a video of a top ELO player handling him.
dark can you send me a the replay of that garen match? My lol replay is fucked up and I can’t view any of mine. Dunno if its just not working with any replays right now but I know for sure i can’t watch the spin to win one ;__;
sure PM your e-mail address or something and I can send it to you.
