Hmm, Bilgewater Kat would be cool to have.
I was debating between High Command and Bilgewater, but sale + she got a fucking pirate hat was too good to pass up
Yet again nothing I want, oh well.
Syndra should be released soon, I might pick her up, she looks like the sort of character I’d use.
She’s going on the PBE tomorrow so, in the next week or two
Personally High Command looks like shit after the remake. But DAT SPLASH ART.
AstroNautilus and Pool Party Ziggs now in the store
She looks a tad like Oriana, reading her skills I’m actually wondering how viable she’ll be as a support, obviously she’s built as a mid with Ult for burst but she seems to have access to a lot of stuns / slows.
Her obvious weakness is that as far as AP mids go, she seems poor at lane farming, doesn’t have an obvious “drop this to wipe out creep wave,” AoE that I can tell.
Q and E should be sufficient at clearing lanes.
I’m more interested in exploiting her E to see if she can reliably keep lanes pushed towards her own tower
Besides, everything but her ult is AoE, why wouldn’t she be able to clear >_>
I really like that bilgewater Katarina skin. Too bad I have never played her.
Lulu is great. I’ve used her as an aggressive Support, AD Top, and AP Mid. Think the first two roles work best though for her considering they messed with her AP ratios.
Naut support is too strong if they dont have a disengage
Just carried my team in a 4 v 5 playing Karma.
Probably the first and only time I’ll be able to say that.
People get angry when I do Naut or Malph support, like OMG WE GONNA LOSE.
Then I fuck shit up and create kill zones while letting my ADC farm to his heart’s content. Most people at that point think I am GOD for picking an unorthodox champ for the role, although very few times they still think I am noobish and terrible (This coming from the ADC) because him as Caitlyn decided to run into a fully healed duo of Leona and Graves for no reason other than, and I quote “I can see them better on my screen if I get close, you don’t understand.”
lol, cameralock
Malphites probably a pretty good support, he’s got good unavoidable harass, a soft CC, and a -attack speed to win fights with, and at 6 he can brutalize the carry.
Malphite is a dick and everyone who plays him is scum of the earth.
BTW buying him next time I’m on.
I’ve been building,
Merc, Rylai’s, Nashors, Guardian on Diana with a late game Hat / Void Staff
Doing really well with it jungling. I like having the CDR / Mana regen from Nashors and her passive really shreds stuff, you’d be surprised how much of her damage comes from it.
The survivability is nuts with Nashors + shield as well, especially given jungle masteries.
Mana is sketchy for harass early, and I don’t think his no item contribution is strong enough to be a good support. Against no sustain you can definitely make it work, but it’s a little sketchy. The other problem his main contribution to a fight is melee ranged and he doesn’t have a fast gap closer. Post 6 he can definitely go hard in the paint, but I don’t know if his 1-5 supporting is strong enough.
More importantly, he scales so well with items and he does so well in the jungle it just seems like a waste.
I use to run a Malph support. Back before the Q nerfs. MagicPen and ManaRegen per Lvl runes. And start stacking Doran Rings. I did it for the lulz. But then nerfs + what Kona^2 said.
mostly agreed, I’d say he’s at least still acceptable with no items(certainly no alistar though), a good malph ult is going to rock a team regardless of his farm, and q/ult/e slam with very little items is still going to mess up a carry in team fights. The big thing for malphites mana is to ignore level 1 rock, damage almost doubles from level 1-2 of rock and only goes up 5 mana.
Like I said, mostly agree that’s it’s not the best, but certainly something I can see working.
