The age old question..


Whick taakes precedence in ranked draft... Draft order or calls in chat?

Can someone last in draft order conceivably call MID over and over and then go MID duo and leave bot 2v1? Is that reportable?

Pick Order is above all.

Hopefully you'll get Gold in solo que, or you won't receive any invites from me

Draft order

Just say something like "Mid pref". This gets it out that you'd like to play mid but are open to other lanes.

My go to is "Anything but jungle"

"[your lane] or feed"

Is the only correct response

I feel zero hype over the incoming season. Call me negative, but I feel like League is nothing but downhill from here. Inconsistent rules globally are going to ruin this as an e-sport. NA/EU/Korea are limiting teams and basically region-locking. Meanwhile China has free reign to just throw money at players like the Yankees. Either Riot needs to step in and globally enforce rules, or League is going to eat itself.

I like the idea of region locking. I hate seeing NA teams that aren't made up entirely of people from NA. That shite is stupid. Meteos even said it's good, just to let some new faces from the regions get exposed.

I hate seeing teams just get a has been from another region to fill up their empty roster spots.

I don't really mind that so much, I'm neither for or against region locking, at least totally. What I'm against is what China did this offseason. China basically just bought the entire Samsung team to go over there so they could "claim" them as Chinese at Worlds this year. Which would be fine if the other regions could also do it. But NA/EU has limited the amount of non-region players you can have, have limited salaries, and haven't allowed sister-teams from the start. OGN took a step in the right direction by also getting rid of sister-teams. Of course Koreans have no need for a region lock since all of the best players are theirs anyway, my issue is that the rules aren't the same across the board. Either let the LCS leagues transfer all the players they want, or stomp a mudhole in China's arse.

Well after playing like one game a week for 3 months, I finally just sat down and played League for the first time in a while. Lots of changes, I still have no clue what's going on, but I actually got to build blue build Ezreal and had a lot of fun. I may have lost Lucian, but blue build Ez is a blast.

I haven't been able to play at all for a month. Hopefully I'll get some games in soon.

There isn't enough money in the world to get me to jungle right now. It's an absolute nightmare. Junglers are now below supports on the food chain.

Surprisingly, Top has been having the most impact on a lot of the games.
Teleport at the right time, or win your lane matchup.... and you can create a huge advantage by zoning the other team's carries (or straight carrying yourself with jax/irelia/gnar).

Mid and jungle have recently had a lot of map pressure and impact, but the gold reduction in the dragon changes have reduced the importance of this synergy getting kills. Early dragons end up being an even trade for top/mid towers. Mids are still important, but I've seen more junglers camp top now than mid.

ADC's like Corki, Lucian, Sivir, Caitlyn are back in vogue b/c the mid game power spikes to contest the baron/dragon are more important. Those fights end up deciding the game. But now that most tops carry Teleport, bot lanes can't be super aggressive and push up the lane without fearing getting top/jungle ganked. So, they play more passive and just farm.

The games are often so close in gold now, that the mid game team fight is dominated by the strongest top laner.

Who would have thought that?

I love the jungle this season

For my low as shite mmr, Pantheon, Xin zhao , and kha Zix work wonders.

I've also watched a shite ton of streams by oddone and santorin and saint and nb3 tho, to figure our what champs can gank at 3 and which need to back

I just call jungle now so someone who isn't comfortable doing it doesn't get stuck with it. I really enjoy the strategy involved

Why do you think it's a nightmare? Admittedly I wasn't around during the insane assassin jungle meta of s3 so i cant compare. But I think a lot of junglers are viable

I do not enjoy jax being back in the meta.

I blind picked a kassadin top into jax and got worked

Since I began late season 4, I've legit played against a jax only 1 or 2 times. Was a tough learning experience. Think I'll just do Mantheon or jayce top next time
