116th champion ?
116 = CXVI = C X VI
C (Cait's nemesis) - X (the signature) - VI (Vi, duh)
DUNDUNDUUUUNNN
Also there's an idea going around where people are saying the new champ will have double personalities.
Vi couldn't solve a crime even if a criminal snuck up behind her and shot her in the head - I mean she turned herself in - Wait - What was i saying? Oh yea, Vi doesn't get it:
etc
sounds cool
Closing in on level 29, hoping to hit 30 and get my ranked placement stuff done and over with for the freebie stuff at the end of October no matter where I place. I just wants the free stuffs, and will worry about getting better after the season ends. Working 2 jobs is making it a bit more interesting getting to 30 than I'd like, might be close...
Does anyone have tips for jungling with Trundle? I've been playing with him while he's free this week, and I think I'm in love with his playstyle. However, I find his ganks pitiful. I don't have good placement with my E because it's so awkward and small, and I am having trouble knowing when to level Q and when to level W. No gap closer is KILLING me, no joke. I'm getting used to his ult and using it on the tanks (I instinctively use my ult on the weakest link, so this is weird for me). Is there any way to keep up with people who have a gap closer/escape, such as Liss, Zed, Ez, etc.? I literally cannot gank these folks.
HELP ME BECOME THE TROLL KING!
If you can learn to countergank, Trundle is probably the best counterganker in the game.
No gapcloser definitely hurts him. The new triforce is amazing on Trundle as it lets him stick to his target easier, so definitely at the very least get a Phage somewhere in your build, preferably early if you can (Spirit of Ancient Golem + Boots + Phage would be a good base I think). As for ganking Liss, Zed, Ez you're gonna have difficulty regardless because they can just easily blink away. I guess keep on eye on them if they blink early and gank while it's on cooldown.
Trundle does excel at counterganking, invading, and duels though so if you can't pull a gank off yourself try and pick fights elsewhere or just cause havoc in the enemy's jungle.
Sooo much ahris because of worlds. As someone who has mained ahri for a very long time i am enjoying the mirror lane challenges in norms :f3:
I think it's time to expand my support pool @I can only play sona/soraka well.
Don't deny farm from the Caitlyn on your team.
One general rule for winning games: Don't play with me.
Spoiler
I am so rusty on anything besides wukong/sej/hec/janna, I can't even beat people in gold 5s anymore on my other champs that I haven't played in quite a while.
Also I tested out hydra rush on poppy, It's so good, helps sustain/wave clear/some ad. It delays my trinity force and other stuff but it's worth, I can apply pressure this way and not taking years to clear cs and roam other lanes.
I was upset. I'd rather not have spent hours explaining why, and the best alternative I could think of was to be blunt. I'm sorry you were offended. I'll just make it a point not to take normal games so seriously.Quote:

5/5 games won today.
what a great welcome back to college gift
It is true. 99% of bronzies are uncarryable. So disgusting :C
Now that I'm in Silver 1, my LP gains have been so low... Last three wins have been +11, +10, and +9 :(
This is 200% so true..you yourself can be fed and try to help people by giving vision,help them secure a kill. But it's never enough cause either they don't farm or they don't push a turret at all..it makes me wonder if this is how they play in normals.Quote:

I wouldn't say 99%, it's not like all your teammates are going to lose bad every single time. Ofc if all your teammates lose and it gets past a certain point then it is uncarryable. If the people are as bad as you say then you can just kill them then take towers asap. Not like junglers are going to cover if it's that bad.Quote:

Had to switch between multiple builds/champs to adapt because some are better if you just get fed while dangerous if not and some are better for teamplay but doesn't work as well in some elos.
A lot of things I learned in bronze/silver was wrong and from that I improved. You don't need to group as "5" and push mid all the time just because you got a really small advantage or group as 5 to defend a tower mid game unless they are really far ahead. You only dive if your advantage is extremely extremely high. You can constantly pressure other lanes and poke down the tower, take drags. If they engage on you guys, then you guys should win if you are ahead, else if you are defending under tower. You guys will be even and someone can probably take a tower in another lane.
Like stonewall said in a video, many players in bronze/silver lacks knowledge, even if they are mechanically good. They lack knowledge of the game. They underestimate unpopular champ picks like urgot/poppy/skarner and they when they get crapped on because urgot/poppy/skarner does a craploads of damage. They are like holy crap how did I lose to x pick. They also do things like attack you even if you have 10+ minion advantage. Showing that they know little about how much damage minion aggro does to them and they just start running at low hp because they do not know their damage output.
Btw I forgot to mention to I was playing with a buddy. I literally just played some soloQ games to help my buddy out teaching him support. I played every role, minus carry jungle & support, and I couldn't even get the team fed. They mostly let them all go lol.Quote:

Don't go too much into tank/teamplay champs, go for snowballing ones that can dominate and just destroy towers. In your game it's uncarryable. But I mean over long period of time, if you are good. Your win rate should rise easily. Even in gold I had people feed, but it's my job to carry them now isn't it? Always assume your lanes will lose. As you rise up the ladder you can depend on your teammates more, but at best you can only assume they can go even(being able to hold and do as well as the opponent)Quote:

Still learning when to level Q and W, but I feel that if they are AD heavy, prioritizing Q and grabbing ninja tabi is the way to go to really up my dueling potential. I'll have to do more testing.Quote:

That's good advice. I'm really considering diving back into ranked with my friend (what's there really to lose? Resets happen soon) and hope to aim for silver at the least (we're pretty sure we at least belong in silver). What kind of champions would you say one should focus on for carrying/focusing towers like you said? I have Udyr, Volibear, Jarvan, Jax and Xin Zhao for attack speed junglers, though I've only really practiced and Udyr and Volibear. I've been told by high level players that these two are really good to carry yourself out of bronze, silver and gold with, but are there any other specific junglers I should focus on learning?Quote:
