Just played Jarvan for the first time. 8/4/29. Had more gold than our ADC. I'm in love.



Jarvan is a MFin' BAWSS.

He's in an odd spot.

He is the best all around champ in the game IMO

Jungle is pretty much completely screwed now. You don't even get level 3 after clearing both buffs now. Smiteless blue is pretty much a waste of everyone's time. The new camp doesn't do jack shite and support items are OP. The new masteries made champs like Akali and Katarina a terror. Targon is the most OP item Riot has ever released.

So after playing ~10 games in the new season.. I'm frustrated by the lack of warding still. Everyone has a free ward but still expects the support to ward the entire map, without using their own free ward.

I kinda like the new jungle.
Laners don't really fear early game harrass and have a free ward; so they play a more natural style of letting the lanes push vs freezing them.

If I see my lanes all pushed up so a successful gank isn't likely, I can farm pretty hard and get more or equal cs/lvls. So when there is a chance to gank, I'm a lot stronger.

"Showing" at lvl3 to get a flash or low health+recall isn't as important to help the lanes.

On the other hand, early ganks aren't eliminated; there are opportunities to sneak through to get early ganks off and counter jungle. That river ward won't save you if you push up too far.

I like it. Especially if they tweak it to make it a little more fair.

If I'm not mistaken, there is really only one option that actually gives you a viable ward. The other two only reveal a portion of the map for a couple seconds and the other is basically a 5-6 second pink ward. I could be wrong, as I am still not well versed with trinkets yet.

That being said, I am hitting full builds with supports early in games and have a crap ton of gold to spare. Honestly, a lot of times, I'm simply another AP champ that has a sight stone.

Played Nami support yesterday and went 8/4/24 with around 550-600 AP. I was literally roaming as a support and fighting other champs in lane straight up.

Leona with this new update is just stupid good. I honestly think this has made the game MUCH better, although I fear they may nerf it somehow.

My main problem is bot lane is just way too op right now. Supports with the new items, buffs, and increased exp just makes it too easy for bot lane to take over a game. As Drewbie said earlier the jungle essentially got nerfed somewhat instead of buffed because of the free wards and the much harder early gank. The main problem with jungle is it is still hard to farm because there is always the point in the game where your teammates or the other team come into the jungle and take your farm away.

The top and mid lanes far outweighed the carry potential of the bot lane. Now that roles are reversed, it seems top and mid lane mainers don't like it

I only ever play bot lane. Sporadically play top and rarely ever jungle or mid.

I like the support buffs. Before them, as a support, you bought wards to start, wards on your 2nd back along with items leading up to your sightstone, cdr or mobility boots, then by that time the game was either over or you never had nearly enough gold to buy any other items let alone items that would make you effective other than armor shields or speed boosts.

At least with this update, you can feel like your contributing late/end game as support. Beforehand, you're were pretty much irrelevant.

ETA: Another reason I like the update...you don't have nearly as many instances of some top/mid laner that has a few more kills than you easily 1v2ing your bot lane like a hot knife through butter.

Honestly, I always felt like mid and top lane had way too much of an advantage in how quickly they gained strength.

I played several games last night that the support made a way bigger difference than either jungler.

One game their sona got fed and was wrecking everyone.
Most people haven't adjusted to the new meta and would disregard or attack a lone sona.

Other games I felt like the tank/support for our thresh or semi support Annie/nidalee.

Support has totally transformed into a force to be respected.
I like it.

Might go full ap xin tonight. Played an ap build the last game last night and it was really fun.

Honestly, Aside from the boots and the sight stone, a majority of items are now pretty much AP items to increase damage as opposed to buying items that increase utility.

With this change, I'd be interested to give my support Ashe another go. Support nidalee who is able to buy AP items would be a nice compliment to a heavy poke champ like Sivir or Varus (especially her heal with AP items).
