    Teamwork OP, Nerf Nao

    You can sign up for League of Legends here. It's free.

    If your name is not on the list, send me a PM with your forum name, in game name and server, or post it in this thread in bold. (I recommend PMing in general, but I'm actually obsessive enough to check every post in the thread.) If you do not know which server you are on, it is most likely the region you're in.

    Okay, so now I got that out of the way here is why you should get a Doran's Ring over a Sapphire Crystal
    1. A little more burst (1:1 AP ratio on your pull, it's a tiny bit more damage)
    2. Equivalent early tankiness, with tankiness being straight up better the more time you spend in lane due to the Mp5 it gives
    3. You need mana regen. Spam more pulls. Win lane.

    After that, Triforce is your first item. Manamune is like a worse version of Atmog's on Blitzcrank. I really don't see any reason to get it over an early Triforce, which incidentally, will give you more damage, and a decent amount of tankiness between the health and the mana. After that you don't need to build very tanky because it's not like you ever need to be close to more than one person. And because it's only one person you can CC them for about five seconds straight.

    Only against magic lanes. If you're against a physdamager, you can get a Wriggle's instead and use lifesteal rather than Hungering Strike for sustain.

    Also I'm proud of you for not going with the stupid Gunblade thing. What a lame obsession anyway I mean sheesh you guys.

    So, I just outlaned Garen with Sion. All I did was keep my stun and shield up for if I need to stop him, leveled up my E to 3, and last hit like a boss. Next thing I know, I am pushing him and he can't do anything because he knows I will just soak any harass.

    Is this normal? Was it just a bad Garen? Admittedly, it involved leveling E early, which is obviously not desirable when you are going AP Sion, but I do feel it pretty much was what allowed me to get so many last hits. Thoughts?

    Were I Garen, I wouldn't be scared to trade early harass with Sion because your mana costs are prohibitive over time and I have inherent regen.

    Ok. So. Is there anyone with a lowish level account on EU West who is trying to level up who wants to premade with me? I'm L10 on my EU account, and trying to earn my way up the ladder.

    About to hit 1350 IP again, torn between Garen and Chogath. On one hand, I am REALLY good with Cho. On the other, I want to learn to play more champs solo top with this acct, so...

    EDIT:

    I'm Silverdevilboy on the EU West servers as well.

    I've been playing alot of games recently as Talon (Going so far as to even buy him with the bonus 4000 IP I got) and I he seems pretty fun. I think he might need a buff to make him a little less squishy but otherwise he seems like a regular champion to use. Also, it took me a long time to realize that the reason why Kassadin wasn't insta crumpling to my ult is because when I'm right ontop of him only half of the daggers hit him.

    So I'm curious, exactly how does Talon's ult work in terms of damage? Does each dagger deal individual damage that adds up if they all hit one target or does it not stack so the most damage you would deal is just 2 daggers worth?

    Suggestion, rather than having one big list of names that constantly needs to be updated, why don't we just setup a Google Doc or something? Does anyone even use the list anymore?

    I'm going to stick up for our DanceMaster Phreak, at least for Blitzcrank.

    He doesn't use Manamune, in fact, in his spotlight, he suggests going straight for TriForce, CDR boots, Banshee's Veil or Randuin's (although, not Frozen Heart? puzzling), then IE/Bloodthirster for more physical damage.

    Not a bad build at all.

    Also, he pulls out the old stomping lane my friend and I use whenever we feel like destroying someone: Blitzcrank + Alistar.

    Now that is the one thing; combined with mana-regen from masteries and from doran's (didn't even use runes), his mana buffs have in fact compensated very well in lane, at least in my few runs so far; I've never had any mana issues, even when harassing much more vigorously than that matchup, where it was solely to keep him off me. He certainly seemed to try to harass whenever he could. Then again, I still am quite willing to believe he is bad, since I still can't believe how well I won the lane.

    Garen kinda needs a bush to effectively harass sion, doesn't he? Like, I can easily see garen walking up to sion with his justice ready and then getting "the look". over and over and not getting his attack.

    If this was a lane without brush, this wasn't a Sion vs. Garen lane. There's just no way.

    Mid doesn't count, brush is too far away for spin2win shenanigans. This also makes me recall my question from the previous thread, which was how the heck Sion beats Ryze in mid without brush support. This happened in my last game. I was perplexed.

    Ryze is bad.

    Actually, that's generally the best response to anything. Why did you lose? Because you are bad.

    Well I just started playing LoL and so far I'v been having fun. Even the defeats have been ok and until my most recent game I have not thought any hero as Over Powered.


    Then for the first time I fought Tryndamere who as the game progressed got very very fed. Although I accept that melee heroes are very good when fed, I do not think he alone should be able to kill almost our entire team at once.


    This may reflect more so on poor teamwork then Tyrn being OP but any suggestions for countering him EXCEPT don't let him feed since that is realistically impossible.

    Damn, I wish we had replays available so I could post them and get assistance.

    Edit: I was playing Garen and between him and annie are my favorite heroes so far so any suggestions for a Garen build are nice.

    Ryze should hard counter Sion mid because his entire combo, including the stun, is outside Sion's stun range. Same is true of almost any good mid.

    Honestly, I think Ryze isn't bad, just situational. Probably shuts down Morgana mid.

    Make sure you have an exhaust, force him to ult quickly, and then drop CC on him.

    If he's super fed and the game is still relatively even, you can probably do this while mostly avoiding too much damage from his team. If he's fed and his teammates are even with you, you're way too far behind and shouldn't be engaging in 5v5s at all.

    Didn't help him. He started pushed out far enough that I could farm at the far end of the lane, enough time to stun him before he can combo, although occasionally he got his Q off. Things only got worse for him when he got pushed back, though, which was when my last hitting and hp farming was in full throttle.

    EDIT: Awesome, Morello admits that the team will be looking at Trynd and examining what needs to be done. As much fun as winning the lane with AP start is, I would not complain about what comes after that but before 3 item Trynd starts.

    Heavy CC is a must for dealing with Tryndamere's ult. I'm assuming you were playing solo queue. Often in solo you'll end up with way too many carries (AP or AD) on the same team and little or no CC. In that kind of situation Trynd really shines, because when most of the opponents are high DPS, squishy, and lacking CC, he can just ult and kill you before his ult expires.

    Its even worse if you are primarily AD, because Trynd likes to crap all over that stat with his obnoxiously large W debuff, which is 100 at rank 5. He is both a carry himself, while simultaneously severely crippling other AD carries.

    Yep. He's essentially the anti-carry carry. (and generally for that reason very strong in solo queue, at least at the lower levels of play)

    Melee heroes can deal a lot of damage when fed, but there are a number of ways to keep them from doing that damage. One of them is chain-stunning or otherwise slowing him down (with, say, Nunu or Nasus, both of whom pack a substantial AS slow). If you don't have a lot of stuns or slows, you can still kill them by bursting them down quickly.

    This may reflect more so on poor teamwork then Tyrn being OP but any suggestions for countering him EXCEPT don't let him feed since that is realistically impossible.
    The thing about fed tryn is that, unless he gimps his damage by building defensive items, he'll be very vulnerable to burst damage. Moreover, he needs that lifesteal to stay in the fight. If you can Exhaust and/or Ignite him at any point during the encounter (ignite is especially useful when he uses his ulti), he won't be able to keep himself alive just by damaging you.

    One big thing to remember about fighting Tryndamere is that his ult won't always be able to save him. If you can do enough damage quickly enough, he won't be able to activate it in time for it to save him. If he manages to use it, but backs away from the fight to heal, try to force another fight quickly, before it comes off of cooldown.

    Edit: I was playing Garen and between him and annie are my favorite heroes so far so any suggestions for a Garen build are nice.
    Brutalizer. Build it into ghostblade. Activate Ghostblade after your spin to keep up the chase and secure the kill.

    Sunfire Cape is a popular and effective item on Garen, and even after you get Ghostblade, think about getting another brutalizer (and keep it as a brutalizer). The cooldown reduction you get from it is extremely useful.

    As for skills, you want to take one (and only one) rank in Courage early, then take spin as often as possible.

    NOT SURE IF TROLLING OR JUST BAD

    Just had a situation with a Squidward Anivia. We easily could have won that game but Squiddie insisted on soloing bot (why) and died 5 times in lane, feeding Talon too hard and then Squidwarding all over the place during chases and teamfights.
