maybe at level 10, but before items not really. His early game clearing is really slow. And his ganks kinda blow.


I can imagine his free ability cast every 5 attacks is useful along with whatever ability it is he uses to "consume" jungle camps (haven't played nunu in a long time).

Why did Hecarim disappear?

Not sure. I know he isn't gone completely because I've seen nightblue and goodguygarry play him recently.

Hecarim disappeared because didnt get played in LCS. Pretty much anything that gets played in either LCS turns into Fotm

So true.

I guess the pros would know what champs are ideal for the current meta, but sometimes I think the League community is so intertwined with LCS players/teams, that there is almost no creativity outside the few champions that the major pro teams play.

Makes watching it get old when it's the same tops and bottoms every single game.

Most people want to win and those give you the best chance of winning. There definitely are a couple picks here and there that work fine as Zion showed yesterday

Hec got a lot of nerfs last season, mostly to his W sustain, but the Q mana nerfs really killed him. He needs blue even with the new Spirit Stone passive.

Interesting. I never really played jungle all that much, so I'm not too familiar with why certain champs are mostly used now.

In any case, I hate the fact that in any given lane, there is this one group of champs who get completely neglected. Is there no way to balance that shite so everyone is viable in their own way?

This is why I play tristana. I refuse to conform the sheep of League

He was shite landing his ults though. Didn't really look like he took her seriously.
You did not just call someone with four accounts in Challenger shite at landing ults.

Nah. He was played a shite-ton till the nerfs. His late game is nowhere near as potent as it used to be and that was his attraction.

In that particular match he was streaming last night, yes, he wasn't landing ults consistently. I think I only saw him land one.

It's not like I called him trash

Balancing 110? some odd champs is a pretty difficult task

You gotta remember hes playing at Challenger MMR. Skillshots are actually difficult to hit at that level because people actually dodge

Maybe not ALL of them, but a larger number. Apparently something isn't right if less than half of them are getting the majority of the playing time.

Trist really isn't even that bad. She still gets played in the LCS.

But you conform if you want to win. I played over 100 ranked games with Ahri last season. I've played her one time this season. You just have to adapt.

Just the way the game works. People will have favorites and the meta will shift away from certain champs

Certainly. I just get tired of seeing the same champs over and over.

That being said, stuck in champ select for the last 10 minutes, restarted client...10 minute wait time.

Installing Dota2 as we speak. Hopefully Riot actually fixes their shite soon. Much rather play LoL.
