Holy crap am I run a bit ragged with work lately. Pretty exhausted. Was nice meeting PDT junior last night.
pacov
and im done with poppy. RIP support pacov poppy. So, tonight something interesting happened for me. I actually did not give a rip what role I played. I was happy to play w/e actually. I think going solo and knowing i wouldn't be stuck playing in any particular role with the new champ select freed me up a bit. That's the shit I hated about premades - taking or assuming you get a role (well that and dragging some lower elo fella into
support now featuring my awful poppy in tribute to karls.
Ah that's a good point regarding more folks playing ranked. We'all see how folks cope
So, apparently we are also getting a brand new queue - true solo queue. No duos, no dynamic queue stuff, just 1 guy queues up. I'm assuming it will be using the new champ select. Anyway, I think that's great and I'm curious how that will impact the dynamic queue stuff. If you are alone, wouldn't you generally prefer to play the true solo queue instead of the dynamic queue? I tend to think that's what I'd do anyway. Wondering if that will s

kids be yelling on reddit about top players streaming and whining about jacked up matchmaking. lyte says: " Re: High level Ranked, we're aware of an issue in matchmaker that is creating some lopsided matches at Diamond+ levels." So, sounds like that will be fixed. A few reports of pretty mismatched ranked games happening. 1 was all silvers vs a gold/plat team. Might be something wrong. </p
Assuming that timing will get better as folks get used to it
[quote who="Thundercles" reply="2610" id="3614580"] It'll feel better if everyone get's one ban and there are 473 champions now so it makes sense to have more bans. [/quote] I'm a fan of more bans as well and think we have enough depth to be able to do that. Re: your thoughts on first pick though, hmm... I think fp can be countered no matter what, right? So, being able to ban out someone as FP is nice and all, but I don't think its that big

Jan 20th announced as the start date for the new ranked season
Oo - shen champion update news - http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/page/champion-update-shen
so did they completely delay the patch then?
RIP PDT again. Haven't played a game with him in a bit. Fired one up w/ him last night. He(mid) and our top lane had a bad game and PDT tilted off the planet. Sample of a time I didn't gank for him. Anyway, unfriended by the PDT, I skip away. - <a href="http://plays.tv/r/eyJ0eXBlIjoiZW1haWwiLCJkYXRhIjoiZW1haWxfdG9fd2Vic2l0ZSIsInVpZCI6IjkzZThjZmE3M2RkNWZhMWE5MGNmMzBlNDk0ZmIyNmEyIiwibXNnX3R5cGUiOiIiLCJ1dG1fc291cmNlIjoiZW1haWxfdmlkZW9fdXBsb2FkZWQiLCJ1dG
Well looks like new champ select has been pushed back to the 14th.
Watched this and tried it out in TB - was TB, but worked really well https://www.reddit.com/r/summonerschool/comments/40m9j5/a_48_min_video_of_how_to_carry_with_shyvana/ Shy jungle VERY detailed guide by a master player. interesting start - you dont take red or blue, just the camps on your side, base immediately, then repeat but take blue/red.

I feel like this was recently updated... maybe not... maybe: lots of infos... http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/site/2016-season-update/champion-mastery.html <h3 class="c-blocks__tit
after the cow games ended tonight, i decided to play ranked. hit plat IV after 4 games. Don't super care about preseason ranked, but was super cake walk. Went like 8/0/++ lux mid 1 game. Played support the other 3 games and did ok. Felt like pretty big mismatch games. Maybe the pop is low in preseason.
I think this is going to be my fav change of the season hands down. Being able to play the role I want to play is 95% of the reason I play team builder now. 5% is being able to play whatever champion I want. So, lets think downsides. The new champ select that is replacing team builder will have bans. Team builder does not. So, that removes that 5% bonus I mentioned for me anyway of being able to play anyone. They did say they will ma
Hmm - let's think the lobby setup through. We go through a few phases - we have the initial lobby before queuing up where everyone pops in and has to select 2 roles, 1 role and fill, or fill. Position assignment where rito assigns you a role Pick intent - everyone can (don't think you have to, but maybe) indicate the champ they want to play Bans Picks So, in the initial lobby, if we have 5 of us,
also... fill exists... so hurm
yeah. BUT - the real question is how elo is going to work with team builder (eg new champ select when its functioning as a team builder replacement only). Not sure how the transistion will work... looking forward to it very much tho
yeah - new champ select Jan 13 - replacing team builder 1st.
now I remember what it was - the root duration goes up as you level it. That means additional time to proc thunderlords and additional time plants are wailing on folks. ROOT DURATION: 0. 75 / 1 / 1. 25 / 1. 5 / 1. 75
Ah righto. I kind of suck with her as a mid (most of my solo lanes are smeh). Think you might be onto something with trying to 1 trick pony her a bit. I'll put in some reps on her mid sometime soon though. I'm about a million times more comfortable as a support. You've put in a ton of work on kali and its most often fun to play with you in lane. re: maxing E v Q as a support, hmm... most of the higher elo folks I was watching (I watc
