Re: League of Legends XXXVIII: Featuring Mumble, The Giant Halibut
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 XXXVIII: Featuring Mumble, The Giant Halibut
So, weird game. Finished 0/0/11.
How? The plan was to get Miss Fortune fed. I picked exhaust specifically for this (although I'll probably keep using it, it was too effective not to). I would Alpha Strike/Exhaust, couple autoattacks, let Fortune finish.I'm mostly here for Warframe and a tiny bit of RWBY.

Re: League of Legends XXXVIII: Featuring Mumble, The Giant Halibut
Exhaust is a very strong spell. While it doesn't directly make people dead the way Ignite does, it basically lets you tell one enemy champ, "No, I don't think you'll be running or doing any damage" for two and a half seconds.

Re: League of Legends XXXVIII: Featuring Mumble, The Giant Halibut
There's a strong case to be made that this is true. The only real advantages ignite has over exhaust are healing reduction to shut down mundos and the like, a dot that can tower dive people without getting killed by the tower, and the fact that burst champions get much more out of ignite than exhaust.
I think Exhaust is generally better on most sustained people, though, or on any non-burst-caster who won't necessarily win lane.Avatar by Ava

Re: League of Legends XXXVIII: Featuring Mumble, The Giant Halibut
I don't like Shyvana's title, never have. The Half-Dragon? How plain can they get? Besides, she isn't really half a dragon all the time. Maybe we should go with Shyvana, the Part-Time Dragon. With such lines as "The League doesn't even offer me health benefits," "It's nice having half-days all the time," and "This is just a waypoint on the way to my future career."

Re: League of Legends XXXVIII: Featuring Mumble, The Giant Halibut
I like ignite on my Morde.
R+Ignite is a fair bit of DoT, and when you've got as much magic penetration as you can muster to punch through what defenses they've got, the DoT should be enough to kill them, and suddenly you've got a ghost.
EDIT:
I think her title says a lot more than you'd think. Valoran doesn't strike me as the sort of place where dragons are breeding all the time.Last edited by NineThePuma; 2012-09-24 at 06:05 AM.

Ahri the Nine Tailed Fox. Alistar the Minotaur. Amumu the Sad Mummy. Miss Fortune the Bounty Hunter. Wukong the Monkey King. Warwick the Blood Hunter. Tryndaderp the Barbarian King. Lee Sin the Blind Monk. Ashe the Frost Archer. Annie the Dark Child. Anivia the Cryophoenix. Nidalee the Bestial Huntress. Morgana Fallen Angel.
I'm not seeing a broken pattern here. Shyvana the Half-Dragon fits in nicely with a good deal of champions who have generic names that describe their physicality or vocation. Or names that are shaped like themselves(Mr. Blind Monk).Last edited by ZeroNumerous; 2012-09-24 at 07:23 AM.

Reminds me of how people complained about "Infinite Light", but it never really seemed out-of-place to me. Thunder Claws, Tremors, Petrifying Gaze, Cannon Barrage, Explosive Cask...

Re: League of Legends XXXVIII: Featuring Mumble, The Giant Halibut
Just had an awful game, and it threw off my entire equilibrium. Then I end up as support (my worst role) in the next game.
Sigh.

Re: League of Legends XXXVIII: Featuring Mumble, The Giant Halibut
We have Corporate Mundo... Why not Intern Shvyana? Actually, which champion would be the best intern?
Yeah, I find in solo queue (both ranked and unranked) I play mostly jungle, because I'm not assertive enough to declare "top" or "adc". In Ranked, my only support character, Alistar, is frequently banned =P
Also, since I jungle Nautilus, if my team pushes the team to their turret, there isn't much I can do.

Re: League of Legends XXXVIII: Featuring Mumble, The Giant Halibut
At that point, you need to start last hitting. Screw support, you're the carry now. 0 cs support only works if your lanemate is good enough to get last hits.
I had a Nautilus in a game demanding a creep wave when I was the ADC. I ignored him and took the wave anyway.
Oh solo queue ranked, I hate you so, but I can't quit you.

Re: League of Legends XXXVIII: Featuring Mumble, The Giant Halibut
I find that simply saying "I'd like top please" early on is enough. I don't bother to fight for a position in solo queue because... solo queue. I've started to jungle a lot more again and I've had some success with that. But I'm pretty sure thats entire because I'v stopped playing Nocturne. I have TERRIBLE decision making when I play assassin-type heroes.

Re: League of Legends XXXVIII: Featuring Mumble, The Giant Halibut
Code Wukong get up get coffee. Code Wukong go to job. Code Wukong go to boring rift match, with nooby Summoner Rob.
The League say Code Wukong very powerful, but Rob's laning skills stink. His strategies not functional or elegant, what do Code Wukong think?
That would be fun I think. Very very fun.

Re: League of Legends XXXVIII: Featuring Mumble, The Giant Halibut
So, long time since I posted here. Been away from the forums for a while, and so forth, but decided to make a post here to talk about some of the things floating around the PBE at the moment.
Kha'zix: I like him, but I really think he's really too strong in his current state. I know this could be swayed by the quality of players I'm usually against on the PBE (It's like the old days, man. Like early season one.), but he seems to fall into Diana-levels of murdering fairly easily, but can be built a lot tankier and still do decent damage. Haven't lost a game top yet with Boots->HoG+Philo->Random bits of Triforce and Gunblade.
His Q's cooldown is short. Really short for the damage it can do. And it's pretty cheap as well, at 25 mana per stab. I've been evolving this second, since level 11+ is usually when it becomes most important.
His W is only really good in even lanes and the jungle, sadly. It's alright poke, but it's mana cost is a bit high. I haven't found many/any situations when evolving it is a good idea, either.
His E is amazing. Yeah, you max rank Q first, but this skill really shouldn't be ignored. I evolve it first, because the kill/assist cooldown refresh makes towerdiving a piece of cake. E in when they're considered isolated, passive proc, Q, they're probably dead now, and you jump out. if not, just use the massive speed from your R to get out.
However, his base skin needs to be improved for one simple reason, that Mecha Kha'zix is easier to play, because it's easier to tell when someone is isolated. Regular bugman just has a faint dark purple ring around them. Mecha has a great big orange targeting reticule that's actually easily visible.
Rewards: The whole new rewards system rolled out on the PBE last week, and if it's any indication of what's to come on the actual servers, the rewards are really quite good. The test so far has been "Soon as one person says you're a half-decent dude, you get a 20% ip boost and access to all of the champions." But I'd be very very surprised if it's what they go for when they implement it.
I've got a few friendly/honourable reports on me, and it does make you feel good just to see them there.
Soraka: The model/skin/particles/joke change is nice and pretty looking. The heal's armour buff particle is much more visible than before. The starcall animation still doesn't sync up with it's damage, though. There's a slight pause between it landing and the damage hitting, just like there always has been.

Re: League of Legends XXXVIII: Featuring Mumble, The Giant Halibut
Oh, it's definitely a good thing. The META isn't as omnipresent, and nobody gets as butthurt over people not slavishly following it.
Everyone's just there to have fun and play champs/skins early. The IR/RP allowance isn't dependent on win/loss, so they have nothing to lose but the game, as it were. But because of that, sometimes people aren't trying.
Or, in other cases, are just not as skilled as I'm used to playing against. Seems egotistical, but it's true.
