Re: League of Legends XXXI: I'll Start My Own Team! With TF! And Janna!
Generally you want to build tanky items that still boost your damage. Stuff like Wit's End, Atma's, and Mallet. If you're doing very well in the lategame and are sufficiently tanky, then building a pure damage item is fine as a 6th item, but that's generally a luxury thing. Your #1 priority is being able to survive diving into the enemy team.
Bruisers really don't need a whole lot of bonus damage. Most of them get a decent amount from their kit, and they usually attack very soft targets. Because AD and AP carries build little to no defensive stats you can still kill them very quickly even with only a couple hybrid tanky/damage items.

Re: League of Legends XXXI: I'll Start My Own Team! With TF! And Janna!
Thanks for Lee advice. Been playing him jungle, should probably stop as it's been established I don't know what I'm doing in jungle.
Also, wut, Toasty.
This is the AD counterpart. A little old, still good.
One annoying thing about that support guide is it doesn't talk about t2 boots (Mercs/Ionians/Mobility) and when to buy them, or late-game build options besides Zeke's/SS/Locket (like FH and WotA).
Man, I need more runes AND more pages.Last edited by Math_Mage; 2012-03-16 at 01:43 PM.

Re: League of Legends XXXI: I'll Start My Own Team! With TF! And Janna!
My Irelia's core items are Wit's, Phage, and defensive boots of some kind. And a Chain Vest because you're gonna use it for something or other and really helps against most tops. Wriggle's I try to avoid getting, since the main reason to get it (sustain) is not something Irelia should be needing more of. I usually turn the Phage into a Triforce and the Vest into a GA. But I'll admit that the boring-yet-very-effective Atmallet build is probably better most of the time. Not that you can't do both things: Boots-Wit's-Triforce-Atma's-Mallet-GA is exactly six items, after all
I kinda like Zeke's as addball 6th item though - it's not something you usually find in a team, but it's pretty nice for you, the Carry, and probably the jungler too. And it offers a decent mix of survivability via the lifesteal and offense via the AS buff. Oh, and CDR. CDR is one hell of stat for Irelia, since it gives you more stuns, more dashes, and more W uptime. All good stuff.
Oh, 21/9/0 for Masteries, and I use my AS jungler page for her because I'm too cheap to buy more runepages.Truth resists simplicity.

What are your normal issues when you play Moon Doe? As a
nationally ranked player of celestial body mammalsplayer of the good Doctor, I feel inclined to try and help.
Oh yeah, and because Mundo is just so fun and everybody should be able to feel the happiness of running around and Mun Doing things.

Re: League of Legends XXXI: I'll Start My Own Team! With TF! And Janna!
All of my money. Forget my plans to buy more junglers, I'm saving for Lulu.
(Getting to type "/all LULULULULULUL" when I make a play is just a bonus.)

Re: League of Legends XXXI: I'll Start My Own Team! With TF! And Janna!
First champ I actually want to get since Ahri. But it'll be a while, since I want to complete my 3rd runepage first before starting to save up for Lulu. I like yordles, and I like supports, so this is only natural for me to like her.
Lulu reminds me a lot of Janna. No healing, but has a shield that also augments your carry's damage, a form of hard CC, and a slow. The ult is pretty different, though.Last edited by Mirrinus; 2012-03-16 at 04:32 PM.

Re: League of Legends XXXI: I'll Start My Own Team! With TF! And Janna!
Lulu looks awesome. I feel like it's Xyph's second try at what he attempted with Orianna; he said one of the big goals with her was to make you think about where your abilities are coming from, but he mostly failed with it by giving players too many options to snap the ball around.
I'm curious whether the passive still functions after using Help, Pix! or if it's basically 'you start with Help, Pix! used on yourself'. Also wondering the tether range on HP!; I feel like it'll have to be a good deal longer than current leashes for its on-enemy use to be very helpful, but I can't see them making it too long. And I could see her passive and the lance spell playing weird if Pix is too far from you

Re: League of Legends XXXI: I'll Start My Own Team! With TF! And Janna!
I think the Lulu skillset looks fantastic! The passive isn't hugely interesting, but at least it should look fun. The same goes for the Q. But the W is really interesting in both forms for the combination blind/silence which hasn't been seen before, and the AP buff on allies. I wonder if it'll introduce viable AP/support bot lanes with a suitable AD going mid instead? The E is like Janna's shield but probably looks cooler, and I absolutely love the ultimate for the chance to make your tank enormous and have them wreak havoc amongst the enemies. I can see Volibear or Shyvana charging in, getting mobbed by enemies and then the Lulu ult sending everyone flying and making them big and scary :D

Re: League of Legends XXXI: I'll Start My Own Team! With TF! And Janna!
Soraka + Veigar/Cassiopeia/Karthus/Ryze are already vaguely viable bottom lanes, but that's not the point. AD carries go bottom because they just need farm. AP carries go mid because they need levels.
Unless the slow is terribly strong, I'd rather just ult my AD carry when they get jumped.

Re: League of Legends XXXI: I'll Start My Own Team! With TF! And Janna!
There is one lane matchup where I'll never start faerie charm as a support. And that is vs Blitzcrank. You need to be able to dodge his pulls, and that means boots. Ever since I began starting boots vs Blitzcrank I had a far, far, FAR easier time "not horribly dying every time I vs a decent Blitz."

Re: League of Legends XXXI: I'll Start My Own Team! With TF! And Janna!
I realized this as I was describing her to my brother, and he said after hearing about her passive, "So she's like Orianna, then." And then I read the rest of her skills and thought, "Yep, she's like Orianna." I imagine HUMMINGBIRD LAZOR coming directly off you would be really annoying as an enemy.

Re: League of Legends XXXI: I'll Start My Own Team! With TF! And Janna!
Ward the brush, stay behind minions. I am a genius.
edit: @Mathmage: the number of supports I've seen that are just full retard is pretty high. Like all those people who are still playing sona. I played Sona+graves recently, its not nearly as good as it used to be. I mean, to be fair, it wasn't really ever a thing before the nerfs, but now its just plain horrible.
Stop playign Sona, start playing Soraka/Ali/Janna/Taric/Nunu/GP (SUPPORT NUNU IS SO GOOODDDDDDD)

I am recently convinced that Nunu/Yi is the best lane on TT - and possibly everywhere else.

Re: League of Legends XXXI: I'll Start My Own Team! With TF! And Janna!
Hey, don't knock my songbird ._. She's still got some of the better early game damage out of all the supports making for darn strong harass lanes and while the early auras are pretty darn weak, the Q aura is all you really care about in laning and it gets strong pretty fast. And her kit overall is pretty decent with the damage mitigation/slow Power Chords and the stun and a decent regeneration aura in W.

Re: League of Legends XXXI: I'll Start My Own Team! With TF! And Janna!
Well, the main issue with Fiddlesticks, Mundo, and Skarner is I don't jungle, and when I lane them they basically collapse. I can't get enough farm as Fiddles to make things matter, which is why he should jungle, except I don't. Skarner is somewhat better on that end, but not that much better. I'm still tooling around with him and items, so he's still kind of iffy atm. I've tried dps Mundo, but nothing I do with him on that end seems to ever work. Renekton... eh, I like Renekton a lot, but he too I can't get the hang of surviving. I think with all of these champions (except maybe Mundo) I'm waiting for a buff which will never come.

Re: League of Legends XXXI: I'll Start My Own Team! With TF! And Janna!
Your definition of "a decent Blitz" must be a lot stronger than most of the Blitzcranks in my games, then. And I still hate starting with only 1 ward. I can see Boots+2wards with support masteries being reasonably safe, though.
I don't play much Sona, but I play even less Nunu, so I might as well start fixing that. I don't think Sona is bad, though.

Re: League of Legends XXXI: I'll Start My Own Team! With TF! And Janna!
So I tried out Irelia!
I don't think the enemy team were greeaaat. I was vs a Garen top. Opened with cloth+5, won every harass-although I did get ganked successfully at later levels, I think once, but I did outfarm him, and got his turret. I ended up 7/7/10. Built Wits End, Trinity, Ninja Tabi and Zeke's Herald. My planned last two items were a GA and an IE.

Re: League of Legends XXXI: I'll Start My Own Team! With TF! And Janna!
Reina, you can't just hijack
people'sLykaeus' redposts. That's rude.
Mundo is much more likely to receive a nerf than a buff, Skarner is in a balanced place and shouldn't be touched again for the foreseeable future, and Fiddlesticks is a poor jungler in the first place. His laning is situational but not entirely unviable. Also, if you "want enough farm to make things matter" the last place you go, disregarding support, is the jungle. Laning provides optimal gold income.
Garen is one of those few matchups where I would actually suggest Wriggles+Phage core. He's kind of a bully.Last edited by ex cathedra; 2012-03-16 at 07:41 PM.
