I tried streaming on Livestream and wasnt getting good fps form their site. What are you going to use to stream?
maybe i need to duo queue more… rolling solo is a complete roll of the dice.
Also, caitlyn is looking nice. I feel like her survivability isnt that great though unless you can pull off some of those net shots. Ill be in the lab when i get home.
If I did stream it would be mostly for SRK people. Not really into getting the thousands of viewers that other people get, but more to just to show people how to play different champs by taking champ requests or switching around who I play. I’d probably look into using own3d.tv as a streaming site.
imo.
we’ll have to duo some more later this week. that whole match way way better than any of my ranked games have gone on my other account. jesus.
I kinda want to rush the new AP item with every AP champion now. 200 AP from one item is pretty gamebreaking if you get it early enough. Also, more people should be playing Fiddle.
Also, I find it pretty awesome that somehow while Riot’s focus has been on eliminating the AoE game, the AoE game has gotten even more dominant.
imo.
seriously… i was pretty surprised to see no major nerfs in the patch notes.
Now that you mention it, three early game items i build could be traded for the one GDLK item. With vlad im going to try starting with boots then rush immediately to deathcap lol. (skipping mej, haunting and boots of pen = 3300ish)
I think a strategy with casters is just going to be to go the glass cannon route with Deathcap and hope to get it early enough to steamroll people. It is definitely possible to get that item within 25 minutes and with MPen runes people with good AP ratios can be hitting like a truck. It will be the core item on Vlad for sure.
200 AP and 400 HP because of his passive.
imo.
Certianly will be for the a while… I didnt see them announce a cost with it (screenshots showed it as 3300) but at that cost, AP wise, this item is the best bang for the buck (165gold/10AP) without tacking other item’s AP bonus on. So sick
I kinda want swain. I want to pick up an underdog champ and make them godlike
Swain is pretty good for that, I think he’s a lot better than people give him credit for(though I think most champs that aren’t top 2 tier on that one list don’t get nearly enough credit). The first game I played with him I was severely under farmed(like I was 13 and their team had all 16-18) and I still output enough damage to be a threat, even the tanks were getting messed up by me. All 4 of his moves are very solid, and like I mentioned early his snare is basically a death sentence in the lane. Snare->DoT->crow->ignite does a TON of damage and leaves them slowed and gives them -healing. His ult just tacks on extra damage and keeps you in the lane/alive, there’s been a few times where I was able to massively bait some overextension/tower dives and survive because of the ult.
I’ve been running dorans ring->tear of the goddess->level 1 boots->archangles staff->merc treads->zhonyas, with ghost ignite 9/0/21 and mpen and mana regen runes(With health quints which I run on every character).

The Garen buff was enough to barely bring him back into viability it seems, but I need to play a few more games where I don’t get incredibly fed and see if I still have a decent damage output.
welp, the meta has changed, burst is back.
vlad, ap sion, aniva all run rampant this patch. sion with a cap, soul stealer and dfg is petty much an unstoppable monster. throw in cdr boots and he has a 4 second cooldown stun. Vlad is an unstoppable killing machine with cap and hourglass, moreso than before that is. Aniva can kill you in one skill rotation. Fuck AD carries, they’re last years news.
and Cat is ass. Bitch is pretty good in laning phase, but completely useless pass that. other ad champs are just so much better.
+1 x2 ^ 400
Caitlyn right now is about as meh as you can get. I ran her as AS, CD, AP. None of them are that great. Maybe CD for the traps that you can drop but that’s about it. Her damage output leaves much to be desired. Farming is ok at best but I thought she’d be a decent jungler. Also wrong about that. I’ll report back when she gets buffed/tweaked in 3 weeks 
lol yea I predict this to happen. Pretty obvious prediction of mines with new items then nerfs ensue right after.
Overbuff to nerf cycle as usual.
Anivia was already really good. With the new items, man.
Wish I could play LoL lol.
My girl Cassi still isn’t viable via Ranks but she got minor buffs and new items can help out.
No AD carry with 650 range will ever be as bad as you suggest she is. She’s fine, in my opinion. Her ult being dodgeable and panth shield-able is pretty shitty, but I suspect that might be a bug and they should fix it before too long if it is. AS, CD, AP are all not very good builds on her, though, so that might be your problem. Zerker’s Greaves, IE or Bloodthirster, Last Whisper and/or new Black Cleaver, banshee’s, etc.
//EDIT\
She seems weaker endgame than uber carries like Sivir, but, then again, who isn’t. Still think she is at a pretty decent place.
She has much more utility than all the other AD carries, so accordingly, she is much worse at scaling into the late game. Early on she is a beast though.
imo.
I really like Caitlyn. Her utility makes her a lot more fun to play, imo. It doesn’t feel like I’m just right clicking everything to death which is what most AD carries feel like to me. 
:mad:
Cat sucks. She doesnt do enough damage fast enough.
Mages are where its at.
Faceroll is FTW.
Mages are scaling way better with items now, and the itemization is better.
200 AP +Bonus on every other AP items/Runes you have.
Zhonyas Hourglass is better for survival then pretty much any other dps item.
Vlad Annie and Anivia are top of the heap atm imo.
Huge single target and AOE burst, good survivability.
I think Vlad needs a nerf, and I know the perfect one.
If he cant move while in pool.
It really would cut down on his bullshit.
I still think Cait is fine. She isn’t going to be replacing Sivir at the head of the pack anytime soon, but you make it sound like she is a liability to her team, which I think simply is not the case at all.
Mages certainly received a buff, but I’m pretty sure it’s not going to change team comp all that much. Casters now just have items to buy in the late game, so they don’t get shit on as hard. It’s not as if 5 caster teams are going to become the new meta, or anything. Standard team makeup seems pretty much the same.
I have always hated Vlad’s design and playstyle, but the general consensus is that Vlad is pretty well balanced. That isn’t to say that a lot of his bullshit isn’t really frustrating to play against (and I do think your idea would be a good change), but he doesn’t really need a nerf so much as a rework. He’s really annoying and sustainable and he snowballs really, really hard. It’s especially a problem in pickup games, where you can’t be as confident in your teammates’ abilities.
transfusion needs a bigger cooldown. it really is that simple.
also, friends don’t let friends don’t let akali get a qudra kill before the 15 minute mark. Just go afk at that point, you’re not winning. akali is also prob “top of the heap broken” with the new cap.
gonna play a game of lol right now if anyone is on and wants to join
wrote down a list of the shit I want to include on the new thread. Current week’s free champs, guide for beginners and all that shit. Busy week so I might not get down to doing it till the weekend.
