Not sure if someone has posted this, but apparently Riot is overhauling The Rift graphically. It looks awesome.

23-4 in my last 27 games. Moved up from s4 to s1. I'm just hoping I can make it to gold before I hit my inevitable losing streak.

Just played with a few of you...

Can someone explain to me how a tryn can take no AD runes nor MR runes, yet walk up to me as Teemo at lvl 1 (each) and take 80% of my hp in two auto attacks?

Yet I auto and kite to my tower and he takes minimal if no damage at all?

Seems even more ridiculous I go Q at lvl 2 and he still out damages me with that rune setup...

Without many AD runes, my lvl one damage with Trynd is like 85. If he gets lucky and crits you twice, then that is like 320 damage. Prolly about 55% of your health, but I figure you were exaggerating when you said 80% hp.

The 80% was an exaggeration.

He must have critted me twice then. First two hits CHUNKED my health bar.

I went E first as teemo with 20 AP worth of runes and a doran's ring. Just seemed retarded that he had no MR and I was doing no damage to him levels 1-6. Especially considering he was being blinded as he came in on me.

Promise you if roles were reversed, the enemy teemo would have two shotted me at level 1 somehow

The jungle is pretty much worthless now. Riot nerfed the exp gain back to the levels of Season 3 while the camps still scale in level and strength and become harder to kill. fricking genius. I have to afk farm to keep up with the fricking adc in levels and he's sharing exp all game. I checked Reddit and forums and it's a pretty big uproar. Especially considering they didn't even try these changes on PBE first, the just threw it on live. Needless to say I won't be jungling until these changes are fixed.

Yeah. I realized quite a while ago that I shouldn't have started as a jungle main. I should have just stuck to Mid or ADC. As soon as they give the jungle some power, they seem to be quick to nerf or take some other advantage away.

It was nice to be relevant and not just a secondary support.... and be able to carry if I had a retard in mid/adc.
But on the other hand, if the jungler can dominate a game... it does reduce the "role" riot has established for ap/ad carries.

I honestly think that riot would prefer a 2-1-2 extended laning phase with epic team fights.

Playing support in solo queue is becoming near impossible to do without wanting to throw my monitor out the window.

I don't mind dying, but 99% of the time I initiate a fight that's certainly in our favor...the team bitches out and I'm left with another death while they run back to base.

It's no wonder people don't want to play that role. It's by far the most frustrating to get your team to do anything remotely logical or intelligent.

You just have to communicate more with them.

Write out, "I'm going in when I ping, follow up."

Communication is key when playing support during team fight phase.

TSM has looked awful these last 3 games. How long you think it takes them to turn it around?

The new full-time coach comes in this week. We'll see if they start improving. They've done a loooot of changing the last two splits. It's a lot to expect to go to worlds now that the region is so tough.

I'm riding a legendary 26-4 streak into my Gold V promos. Should be interesting.

they look terrified to make a mistake. replacing the 2 spots that generally have the most map awareness and shot calling roles has neutered them. Gleeb misses everything and Amazing is average at best.


they got worse while everyone else got better.

Certainly seems that way.

Although this may be a one step back, two steps forward type of situation while the two TSM newbies get acclimated.

I still think it will take longer than just one split though. You don't just drop your long time jungler and support and "get over it" in one split.

TSM may be in for a long season.

Made it to Gold V. I started playing Ryze top almost every game. Unless he gets camped hard top, then he can bully the shite out of just about any champ.

Just a little PBA, if you're getting crushed in lane, instead of complaining to the enemy jungler about how he's a noob for camping...stay by your tower and stop fricking dying and let your other lanes carry.

Thanks for listening.

ETA: Just did 2 jungle Warwick games. I realize he is the "Jungling for Dummies" champion, but it was hella fun

CLG going full retard with a 7k gold lead over C9.

Win a team fight 4-0 with only Hai's nidalee left alive. Instead of pushing the mid wave to turret and inhib vs "no wave clear Nid".... they decide, "hey, let's go for baron."

They let Baron's magic resist shred and Nid spears nearly penta them.... then proceed to lose.
