The League of Legends Thread: Winter is...coming?

I really hope the champion sale corresponding to the skin sale becomes a trend. Being able to buy a new character and then pick up a skin for it seems really nice. Definitely better than being able to buy Fiora and another Teemo skin on sale.

I am now a believer in the power of hecarim

GIMME DAT

So, Kha’Zix.

Ass, or Really Ass? What’s the verdict?

Absofuckinglutely broken in dominion, SR idk yet cause he’s not used as much as Rengar it seems

Not viable, just for fun champ.

Drink that Kool-aid son.

“Don’t play seriously until S3 item rework makes AD casters decent” tier.

He doesn’t seem that good on SR yet cause it takes a while to get items there unless you’re absurdly fed, but trust me once he gets some stuff going he can 100-0 people really disgustingly fast

Both playing as, and against khazix I’ve been 11/0 in the mid game, and seen lots of khazix’s get fed super hard early and still lose. Seems to be kind alike LB, good at killing people but can’t really carry a game.

Well depending on how the match is going it doesn’t help if it managed to reach a 40+ minute game where teams are all sticking together, since that doesn’t let him abuse his lone-target passive

I blame this partly due to people in soloqueue not knowing when they can actually just go end the fucking game, im sure everyone here has had games where they got hella fed, everyone else on the team was doing better than their lane opponents, but for some unknown reason the game just dragged on long enough for the enemy team to catch up on items, when it could have just been ended ages ago

With very few exceptions, it’s incredibly difficult to carry with assassins. Say you’re Fizz. You’re underfarmed, so you run in, kill the carry (because 100%-0%'ing somebody with no defensive items is easy), and then die, because you’re underleveled/without items.

If you’re fed, so you run in, kill the carry, and then do jack shit and run away because all of your things are on cooldown.

Really, you can’t change the game unless you aren’t reliant on cooldowns/have invis. Akali is a great example, because she never, ever has to wait on cooldowns, and she has a strong pubstomping stealth.

This is why I rarely if ever use early game champs in solo Q.

Diana imo is the best Assassin right now. If you are good at least.

Well, just to play devils advocate, sometimes early game champs give your team the psychological advantage. If “an enemy has been slain” keeps coming from your lane, your teammates have a better feeling about the game and makes them want to play better. If they feel its hopeless, then they play worse.

Of course this all comes down to chance as to the kind of people you got on your team. Some people are good at following leads, and some people curse out the jungler cause he took the kills instead of letting the laners take it, lol.

I can’t comment on her, she came out after I quit. I heard she was a ghetto Akali, though.

She’s less expensive than Akali (Gunblade and LichBane are kinda pricy)
She gets by with Abyssal and some other situational item. And is able to disrupt stuff like Kat ult with her E

Diana can actually survive teamfights thanks to her shield and she can auto attack to proc her passive while her cooldowns are down, and she bursts just as hard. No point in playing Akali with Diana in the game unless you like nurses.

It takes a lot of effort to not be mad while playing some of these games. Playing Fiora as a ghetto jungler, doing extremely well, people still manage to fuck everything up, it’s impressive. My Irelia would rather farm a minion wave than jump on GP during a gank and stun him to waste his oranges.

I like this weeks sale, well weekend. Whatever.

May try to get the Hecarim skin.

Uh I think Kha’Zix is a pretty decent top laner against some opponents. He is really strong against people like singed and vlad for example. His ult helps him out a lot more than most assassins in team fights as well. I think he is fine and actually rather good. As for assassins in solo Q not carrying??? are you joking? I mean some of the best people to carry with are Kat/Eve. Win the lane early get like 8 kills float to lanes and the other team never has a chance to gather and win a team fight. If you like playing more of a aoe comp that is fine too but i don’t know a better type of character than assassins for taking things into your own hands.
