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

Sorry to double post, but I figured this was important.

It seems that in addition to the server downtimes, there's an incredible amount of bugs associated with this patch, probably the most disastrous in LoL's history. :/ I haven't experienced any myself, but we won a Dominion game against a Kayle who was complaining about an invisible cursor and player disconnects when games began were present in every game played so far.
 
Tried support Fiddle and didn't like it. Fear on a support is fun but he is just too squishy. Played him mid against a Vlad and won my lane 3-0. Dummy didn't realize until the third kill that if I hit him with Drain before he pooled that it would continue to kill him. He also made both teams lol when he yelled in all chat, "That heal is bullshit!" Dummy also forgot to get his revolver before stacking health.

fid support is all i play now when i support in normals.

if you play him more you will know when to go all out and when to play passively
 
Yeah, I can see how he'd be good. He's just not my cup of tea. I'm really loving Blitzcrank. Definitely gonna buy him once his free week is up.
 
So... ugh. I bought 3 day IP booster to compliment the 10 win boost Riot gave me. Obviously I wasnt considering the downtime... this will be the second booster Riot has fucked me over on.
 
Aren't boosters always extended for any downtime? I thought they were...

I think the problem is the long queue kept some people from being able to play, and the servers are technically up (read: boosters are ticking down) when the queue is up.

Riot has and always will reimburse you for the time that the server is down by extending the time of your boost...
 
Yeah, but Riot can't reimburse the three days of free time. If I had a boost for the weekend and the server was down having the boost extend to Tuesday wouldn't do shit for me.
 
send a support ticket about your case and how the login queues have messed up your IP boost, im sure riot can do something about it. I did get a refund on some champs I regret buying so I am sure they will help you out.
 
The ghost of Evelynn has taken to exacting vengeance upon her creators on this one-year anniversary of her nerfday.
 
So I'm in love with Leona. Basically a free kill if your carry is decent and you catch someone out of position in lane.
 
They don't even have to be out of position. Her ult's range is so large they could be just csing like normal and never see it coming. You just either need your carry to be ready (ie somewhat close) or to just use a gap closer if they have one and unless their support is something like a soraka with awesome reflexes or an ok janna, it's almost assuredly a free kill. Double exhaust Leorki lane op.

Yeah, that just happened. 11701 unspent gold what do
 
Soraka is OP on ARAM, you had superior CC, and they got Eve and a free week. It seemed pretty skewed towards your team in the beginning. Though carrying with a regrowth pendant alone is pretty impressive.
 
You could just sell it, as well...

I feel like I've been seeing people on streams getting GP10 lately, especially in mid. I'm obviously no authority, but I feel like if you're ahead, an early Philo or Kage's is never a bad pickup.
 
I actually got a speedy response from Riot...

EMPDEE, Jun 22 10:58 (PDT):
Hello Summoner,
All IP and XP boosts are extended for the length of any server down time. We understand that unexpected server down times can conflict with other scheduling, so boosts are extended for a generous amount of additional time to help compensate. Additionally, this extension is not reflected in the display but in the postgame summary screen where it displays your IP and XP earnings.
Sorry for any inconvenience.
Let me know if you need help with anything else.
Get Em!!!

No, I don't think you understand in the slightest. I'll accept the duration boost but not buying RP again..
 
oddone was talking about gp10 mid on stream recently, he said the basic idea is that they are okay to build on certain champs (ones that can clear quickly and easily) as long as you are not up against an aggressive champ or a particularly aggressive opponent. the reason for this is because if the enemy champ was already going to be aggressive you're just making it easier for them to win lane and do what they want, and you could put yourself into a situation where you're getting zoned out of cs with gp10 items where you could have laned fine with regular items.

the other thing with gp10s is how it effects your objective control early to mid game. if you buy gp10 you will be weaker in straight up fights at dragon or blue, but gp10s give you more freedom to roam and make a gank that took a long time or even failed less punishing. because you have more freedom to spend time on ganks you can set up better ones (instead of rushing it cause you have to get back to your lane quick), and if you can gank well enough that it sets up a free dragon or blue steal then the gp10s were very worth it.

also, in reference to lower elos where there is a lot of grouping mid early and it becomes harder to get your own farm, you can see how two or three gp10 would be pretty strong.
 
Champs that use Gp10 are all lane pushers so the enemy can't really be that aggressive if they are pushed to the tower. Also, because they are pushed objectives are easier to take. As long as you get all of your CS and play relatively safe you should be steamrolling them Mid game. should
 
Thinking they shouldnt fix this baron bug. It would make baron fights lots less hectic and would make people like pookar and HD rage less.

if they push to your tower and use their cooldowns to do so you have free reign to be aggressive against them, and if you can chunk them down a good bit it really hurts their ability to control objectives.
