League of Legends: Let's Talk About uhhh??

I only have free rotation champs and Panth/Tristana. Got 6300 IP and waiting on the new 3 champs.

Favorites to play in my history though: Maokai, Karthus, Nasus
Probably others that i dont remember (how can i not remember a favorite? idk)

Im looking to buy a tanky dps/support type character, was looking at like Taric, Jarvan, Nunu, Rammus maybe, Opinions?
 
Blitzcrank imo is another option for 'tanky' support, has knock up and 'stun'pull as well as his passive being great if you have some mana items like manamune or archangels staff. Although he can't really control larger crowds like Jarvan or Rammus
 
Dunno if I said this before, but I can't play LoL anymore since I'm at home and my connection sux. Oh well.

I'll be back in the fall, and we'll see how things have changed then.
 
FUCK VLAD NERFS LOL

malz and annie have been indirectly nerfed - they get less gold for ganking side lanes because often their gank targets will be lower level than them, meaning they'll get less gold from the gank. other famous 'level 6 you die' champions will suffer from this too, it'll make duo bot a less worrisome lane to fall apart

People on the League forums are so dumb. I love that they can't understand the fact that Vlad isn't a nuker...

Meanwhile, I don't know about Malz and Annie being indirectly nerfed... They only said the max you can get from a bounty is 500, they didn't say that they readjusted how much bounty you get for a normal target...
 
anyone saying jarvan, he kinda got nerfed.. as a nooby type player i dont really know how the nerfs affect him really and not sure if its worthwhile to still pursue.

I think im gonna buy Nunu cheap now, wait for Yorick and decide then.
btw i know rammus isnt a tanky dps... but iive played rammus in rotation and hes kinda cool. and now he can powerball through wards!
 
where do you guys see these nerfs, I don't see patch notes anywhere

edit: also, has anyone here actually tried roaming?
I don't know if it applies to the other dota-type games but the concept is that you play a character and roam the map, always ganking and supporting teammates. Props are that you help push lane by harrasing opponents, good map control in terms of vision (since most roamers are going to plant wards) and you are always unpredictable (kinda like junglers). Cons are that I can't see much money getting farm (aside from assists /kills) and the fact you are always walking haha. The only roamers I've seen so far are Evelyn, Jana and Alistar. Has anyone tried it?
 
they were in a patch preview during the season one championships yesterday. Im sure fansites and such have compiled the complete announcements somewhere

Evelynn nerfed, vlad nerfed, vayne kinda nerfed i think? jarvan nerfed, gangplank buffed, fiddlestix buffed, gold per 10 unique now, amongst other stuff
 
I've been thinking about how they could possibly "rework" stealth. It took me awhile to try and wrap my head aruound that idea, because I was thinking, "How many different ways can someone go invisible?" But here's what I think they're going to do. I'm not sure, but tell if you think this sounds accurate.

Being in Stealth won't make you entirely invisible to the opponent. It will rather make you a ghost-like figure much like how it appears to allies when you go stealth. While in this state you cannot be targeted by opposing players or minions. This will effectively maintain the same feel of being stealthed, but at the same time will make it less "unfun" for opposing players as they have some warning of where you are, and it's not a sudden lock down out of nowhere into death.

For a little flair, the game designer in me says that while stealthed, the champion's headshot will not be displayed on the minimap to enemies with vision, so you'd have to be looking at the area of a ward to see them as they pass by, not rely on the big giant picture passing by your vision area.
 
HoN Downtime 6/21/11
During our scheduled maintenance period this morning we had a catastrophic hardware failure across a number of systems including some of our backup systems. We have the capacity and ability to recover from this failure. However, due to the extent of this failure we cannot provide an ETA on when service will be restored, we will continue to provide you updates as they are available to us.
We apologize, we would like to play just as badly as you would.

HUE

Yeah, I'm picking up Jarvan. Looked at Rain Man's build. I feel incomplete without a Youmuu's as tanky DPS ;_;
 
What I learned today:

I cannot play support for SHIT. Played roam Alistar one game, fed, and lost. Played support Lux the second, fed, and we still won because my friends carried me (all these games today are premade 5s btw).

Then I played Ashe for the first time and kinda got carried by my friend playing Akali but regardless I ended up with a good score. It's satisfying to watch people's health bars melt.
 
what's the big deal with the gold per 10 thing going unique?

yeah, they screwed up eve big time.

also the bug that made minions shoot like a gazillion spells toward their target was funny, i thought my settings were messed up or something lol
 
ok some weird stuff happening this patch

Jax
  • Leap Strike attack damage ratio reduced to 0.7 from 1
he's underpowered as it is...

Evelynn
  • Hate Spike missile speed increased
  • Shadow Walk now applies a 3 second 30/35/40/45/50% slow instead of a stun
  • Malice and Spite
    • Passive heal reduced to 150/225/300 from 350/500/650
    • Attack speed bonus reduced to 25/50/75% from 50/75/100%
...so they kill her by nerfing the stun and they had to hit her ult too?

Mordekaiser
  • Iron Man's shield generation is no longer reduced if the damage done is shielded
  • Fixed a bug where Children of the Grave could steal enemy passive abilities permanently
if they fixed that bug then why does tailwind and loaded dice deactivate when tf and janna are dead? clearly there's something wrong with yorick that they just didn't bother fixing

Shaco
  • Hallucinate clone now correctly benefits from critical strikes
you now have no reason to play ap shaco, solo queue retards

Tryndamere
  • Fixed a bug where Undying Rage improperly showed "Endless Rage!" to represent damage being prevented
yeah riot, it was a bug, of course....

Udyr
  • Mana cost of shifting decreased to 55/50/45/40/35 from 75/65/55/45/35
  • Turtle Stance now heals Udyr based upon the actual damage dealt (instead of the raw damage dealt), but the heal is not reduced if the damage is shielded
  • Phoenix stance's activation damage increased to 15/25/35/45/55 from 10/18/26/34/42
i approve but i don't think this is enough to get him out of the pits

also yay shield fixes
 
I didn't like the wardjumping removal stuff, although rare I did run tele on teemo. Just a smalll nitpick
didn't like jax and evelyn nerfs, they did some work on spirit visage apparently

It's very common to see supports stacking Philosopher's Stones and other characters stacking Heart of Gold at more competitive levels. That's not possible any more and will require people to buy one of each if they want to stack them. It's more annoying than anything else, I can't see it having too big of an impact.

Why on earth would they nerf Jax at all? ):
 
was just reading the LoL forums last night because the server went down (a bit earlier than expected it seems)

lots of dudes angry about this stuff. sadly i only understand the true impact of a couple of these nerfs
 
Annie is my new favourite champ. I've been playing her all week and wow, just so fun dropping that AoE stun in the middle of a team fight and then melting everyone in sight.

Just finished a match laning mid vs an opposing Annie. I went 2-0 in the first 10 minutes, 20 CS up. Finished 20-5-8. I don't know what they did to her in that last buff but it seriously worked.

first game as ww. i'm fairly confident the guys we were up against were morons (as you can see by them surrendering at 20 and some of the builds) but that was still pretty fun. (i also used thorns' guide over theoddone's)
 
Defended 3 v 5 for nigh on 50 minutes with some bros after the other two in my premade trollingly quit. I was trolling as Ashe (I suck at ashe), another was Lux, and the third was Blitzcrank. We stole baron from them twice, and I landed 5 amazing across the map arrows. Someone recorded it so when they get the video up I'll post it.
