Help me pick up some new champs:

- I generally like junglers or carry top laners. (I can play a tank, like Rammus, but it's just for a change of pace.)
- I tend to enjoy split pushing.
- I don't mind either initiating or kiting in fights.
- Gank quality is medium priority. I usually don't quit farming unless there's an easy kill or I expect an enemy gank.

* With the game being skewed to an almost guaranteed mid/late game. Later spike champs seem to be a good idea.

First pass, I'm thinking Tryndamere.
Any other ones sound good?

Jayce can do everything top lane.
Hec can initiate and carry as well as any jungle but has mana issues.

I recommend playing the free champs each rotation and seeing which champs you like that way.

I did that until I hit 30, but not every champ had cycled through the free selection.

Plus, I might only get a handful of games in a week these days. So, I don't get nearly enough practice with them to make up my mind.
---- WHICH is why I'm asking ya'll!

I've seen some Darius top lately, and I wonder why he isn't played more.
Yi has become popular with wriggles changes and a reddit Yi AMA post.

Darius, Yi, Shaco, Wukong, Diana, Poppy.... Teemo?

Which champs in general are the super strong split pushers?

Yi is a great split pusher. He can take down turrets really fast, and then he can ult away if people try and close on him.

I think Nocturne is a really strong jungle right now, but it might just be because I'm really good. I usually just go straight AD with an armor or banshees, depending on who on the other team is fed. If our team has decent ward coverage then I can just kill carries from halfway across the map in like 2 seconds. That is a very satisfying feeling. Nocturne isn't the best in organized late game team fights though.

He gets owned by ranged tops and manaless tops. However if you get a Jax, Trundle, or Susan (Melee tops with mana) you should own the lane.

Anyone here ever read over the tribunal cases?

Very interesting...lot of good laughs. Feels even better to see the way these morons talk to their teammates, then hit the punish button.

Not sure if it yields any actual disciplinary action, but it makes me feel better.

It was waaaay better when it first came out. You saw some legit shite. Nowadays people know they will go to.tribunal and are much more mellow. I usually just get a silent feeder or "easy". I always pardon "easy"

I've judged a few cases. And I drop the hammer. JC don't play no games.

After you vote on a case you can see result in the case reviews. It says whether or not they were punished and what punishment was given.

Beyond me how any player can be ranked at any level and still not understand you can't 1v5 people when you're behind. Then if that isn't enough, they do it a second time...then a third...then get mad when it doesn't work.

This game has to have the biggest community of individuals incapable of learning anything.

But I supposed the joke is on me since I expect better from them.

We had them pushed under turret and I was free-farming as vayne. When they came out, we poked.
fricking ideal.

I guess he got bored and super dove them beyond tower.... Without the minion wave.
Then, I couldn't hold them back.
We were the only winning lane.

Sigh. Ofc I got blamed for not going in too.

Happens to me all the time.

Laning partner goes in 1v3 into their tower, gets obliterated easily and says if I had came with him that we could have killed them all....

Riot needs to put another buffer before players can begin ranked. Just making it to level 30 is not enough.

Saw a lot of Ashe yesterday in the plethora of URF games I played (both myself and the opposing team).

She is a monster late game once she gets some items under her belt. Arrow stun, 2 AA's and you're done.

May start playing her some more in normals. The kiting ability is real.
