Re: League of legends LXI: Demaglia!
It's...Certainly something, I must say. Not sure whether I like it or not, though. The Vayne one is great, though.

I've started streaming again.
78% of DM's started their first campaign in a tavern. If you're one of the 22% that didn't, copy and paste this into your signature.
I started my first campaign outside of an abandoned mine, just as soon as a meteor storm from the moon hits.

Re: League of legends LXI: Demaglia!
It's the combination of the wings in the background and her skin looking patterned. It might also be the fact that her hands are on fire, but that I'm less sure on.

Re: Shyvana splash
The image has many cool parts, but they don't seem to be in focus, something in the composition seems to draw my attention away from the cool parts.
weird. The hands and flames are cool. The arms guide the eye towards the head. The face and the metal armor are both eye-catching and would be nice, but the helmet and the shoulderpiece then guide the eye down to the chest armor, which has arrows pointing down to her stomatch, which has tattoo-arrows pointing down to where her crotch is hidden in the shadows.

Re: League of legends LXI: Demaglia!
I'm pretty sure the arrows on her stomach are supposed to be 'scales'/'plating', not tattoos.
The hands are cool, but the rest doesn't work for me at all - which means the whole image doesn't. I think they tried to make her seem somewhat 'inhuman' to emphasize the dragon half of half-dragon, but it just doesn't work. The headdress is WAY too big, the chest armor just looks awkward, the random pig tails don't fit with the rest of it... I mean, there are a couple of really cool individual elements, but they just don't go well together

Re: League of legends LXI: Demaglia!
I like it. ^.^
I'll have to fit Base Shyvana into my skin rotation (of ALL of the skins >.>) more.
The Vayne one is ridiculously cool also.Last edited by Ashen Lilies; 2014-08-22 at 01:22 AM.

I like it, and think that the 'wow awesome' is a problem because it means more Shyvana players.

Re: League of legends LXI: Demaglia!
Volibear's on free rotation right now, which inevitably leads to seeing more of him. Seeing Volibear support five times in a row though - especially when Karma and Soraka are also on free rotation -well, all I can think of is that you broke a LOT of mirrors while walking under ladders with black cats going in front of you

Re: League of legends LXI: Demaglia!
Spoiler: Shyvanna
First thought that popped into my head:
I'm Commander Shyvanna, and this is my favourite Rift on the Citadel.
Also, Volibear support is pretty legit. Soraka is boring, especially now after nerfs, so no-one wants to play her. Karma, I don't know. I honestly don't see her much.. I guess she doesn't have the OP factor Morgana has, or the "OMG KILLS" supports like Leona, Thresh and Blitz have, so she's usually only played support as a counterpick. I honestly see her mid more than support. But still, I'd have bought a lottery ticket if I got 5 support Volibears in a row.

Re: League of legends LXI: Demaglia!
Soraka is 450 IP, so pretty much anyone has her anyway, and she is not a popular support anymore because she's basic and boring, plus her playmaking ability is pretty small, you can only do reactionary play by heal-baiting and well-timed silences. Karma used to be more popular as support but now isn't for some reason; I think her lack of hard CC and the rise of Nami contributed to that. Now people don't see reason to play her.
Meanwhile, Voli support has been advertised by this one D1 entertainer Youtuber since forever and he's genuinely quite fun with an in-your-face playstyle. And since bot lane has become that one place where everything is decided by an all-in sooner or later, Voli kinda fits, it's hard to kill him, plus people who don't know how to deal with him are easily owned.

Re: League of legends LXI: Demaglia!
I think we are assuming very different levels of competence:
-At high levels, everybody owns all the champs (or close enough to all that they might as well), and once somebody shows that something can work, people will follow suit, even if only briefly so that they can see if they can do it too. Voli being on Free Week and somebody seeing 5 straight Support Volis is total coincidence.
-At mid levels, players will have most or all of the champions of their role anyways, so yeah, anybody who mains Support will already own Soraka (definitely) and Karma (probably), even if they never use them anymore for one reason or another. Volibear is a non-traditional Support (at least compared to somebody like Soraka) that a Support-main player thus might not have gotten around to buying yet, so when he comes up on free week, they figure, "I heard this can be useful, might as well check it out."
-At my level, there's two types of Support players: those who have a couple non-free champions marked "Support" and know what a ward is, and those who instalock the coolest-looking free week champion while calling "bot lolz" and then proceed to steal allmytheir ADC's CS. And armored white DoomBears are cool.
I have no idea which of those Dusk Eclipse falls into.SpoilerBossing Around Mad Cats for Fun and Profit: Let's Play MechCommander 2!

Oh my god. This week, man. I want to play Ahri to get a feel for her, and guess what? Almost every match was an Ahri vs. Ahri...

Re: League of legends LXI: Demaglia!
Don't think free week has anything to do with it, because at least two of those 5 games I mentioned were ranked games, not back to back thankfully. But yeah he was quite popular in team builder.
How is volibear a counterpick? He is "perfect" for all ins with his grab, but I don't see how he counters other all in supports or poke supports (he can survive just fine the poking if his passive is on, but the ADC's usually can't sustain the poking early on).
So I'm not crazy and someone famous advocates for voli support, glad to know that. I don't play bot lane much, but IME Voli is relatively easy to kite, sure his passive makes him an annoyance to kill but frankly that and the flip are the only things I see going for him.
I'm a Bronze I player with mid silver MMRC (I regularly get queued with Silver IV and III in ranked) so take that as you will. My problem with Volibear is that most people who play him support either don't know how to play Volibear or don't know how to play support. And it gets frustrating no matter what role you are playing, you are an ADC? Here have a full HP Lee sin to the face. You are jungler asking bot lane to let the enemy push a little so you can gank? Let's push the lane to tower and Tower dive the Braum+graves lane.... Dunno sometimes I think that watching the LCS and D1 youtubers/streamers are giving me the wrong impression on how the game is played. I think I expect too much of me and my team-mates.

They'll have to go through me first. And I'm at the very least the best Ahri living in my house.

And then there is aggressive T-cell lymphoma also known as "support" Teemo.

Re: League of legends LXI: Demaglia!
FINE. I'LL FIX MY BRACKET.
Spoiler: NA LCS bracketTSM>Dignitas in 4. Dig will put up a fight, but their second half collapse will continue.
CLG>Curse in 3. Historically, CLG has manhandled Curse in the playoffs.
TSM>LMQ in 5. I think that while TSM isn't the best, they're certainly in the top four, and their greater experience will carry over into a hard fought match.
CLG>C9 in 5. I do think that CLG will pull it off. But Cloud 9 is not a team to be underestimated, and they will make it hard for CLG.
THIRD PLACE: C9>LMQ in 4. I really don't want LMQ going to worlds, but aside from that, I do think C9 is the straight up better team.
CHAMPIONSHIP: Hopefully bringing a revival of the CLG-TSM grudgematch, CLG>TSM in 4. As long as CLG avoids stupid Baron calls, I think they can handle TSM.
FIFTH PLACE: Curse>Dignitas in 3. Dignitas needs to figure out something, because they aren't going to get anywhere even with ZionSpartan and Shiphtur leading the pack. I fully expect to see them returning, though.Last edited by McDouggal; 2014-08-22 at 03:51 PM.
I'm mostly here for Warframe and a tiny bit of RWBY.

Re: League of legends LXI: Demaglia!
Support Teemo, played correctly, is even better at pissing off all members of both teams than top Teemo. Blinds and shrooms and way too much burst damage and ugh.

Re: League of legends LXI: Demaglia!
Wat. I said Karma is a counterpick, not Voli. She was played a lot when Morgana became popular but before Morgana got permabanned. She's probably the strongest poke support out there, which makes her great against Morgana (you can poke much harder and still have cc/utility) and some all-in lanes (most notably Leona). Now that Morgana is permabanned and Leona is nerfed and played less, Karma is less popular since she doesn't stack up against Thresh/Braum too well and falls off in utility late game because she can't make picks and has a weak teamfight.
I've never seen Support Teemo -not- work well, and as such, I welcome the pick as long as he actually does support basics(use actual wards, buy a support item, buy sightstone, etc, etc).thnx to Starwoof for the fine avatar
