Fiora is scary if she gets fed early, but isn't in a great spot. At least imo. She is a squishy top laner who falls off hard if she is denied early. She is high risk and not worth picking atm. I heard she was getting a rework though so lets see what that does for her.
|
Yeah I know where you're coming from :p I've seen plenty of good Fioras both on my team and the enemy's. But I've also seen ones who looked like they were a level 5 against a bunch of pro players. :( She can wreck teams if played right but can also be useless if not. She has no CC to contribute, her abilities are eh (her ult makes me cry everytime though, I'll give her that) and her ult can be blocked by things like Pantheon's passive and maybe Zhonyas? (think it stops fiora's ult not sure) We had the pleasure of a Fiora mid in ranked once and I didn't have any of my top champs left so I went Akali. I thought it would sort of work- I mean it's like Akali and Fiora had a laneswap right? :D The rest of our team played really well but yeahh fed enemy mid laners not fun. so I ended up going top vs a cho which wasnt too bad ^^
Anyway lots of things happen in ranked - good or bad. I don't play much ranked myself since I've lost my interest in SR PvP in general but that'll probably change during the holidays (which is after tomorrow hallelujah) where I'll try to leg it to S5 promos from B1. although I'm feeling pretty off at the moment so probably gonna stick to practicing in normals for a bit :p Also I don't think I have some of you added in-game but if you want, feel free to add Hawksbury on NA :) I don't play as much as I used to but I'll be around and you can ask for a game. Bots, SR, Dominion, ARAM, TT, ranked even, don't really mind. Used to play with a bunch of people from PC and I had some good laughs with that ^^ (gonna forever remember teemo in aram and sunfire capes stealing barons) XD I main Akali, Renekton, Irelia, Annie and Pantheon for various roles. I've tried playing ADC but I can't do it so yeah. :D I've been playing with Shawn (or Dragon on PC) for some games on the rare occasion I do play and our bot lane coordination is pretty amazing. We made a huge comeback for our team and Shawn ended up going 20 kills or so? idk how that happened I blame all his jinx ults :( But yeah it's rare we get stuck together for bot lane, I'm usually up top or mid. bot lane isn't my thing ;__; btw am I the only one who doesn't like some of the new splashes? Like I don't really enjoy Shyvana's new one and prefer the old one. I get the argument of her looking more badass but there's something really off about the new VU. Same goes with Orianna and a bunch of the other ones who got VU'd. but maybe that's just me XD also I really don't think an akali nerf is gonna do anything - no one knows how to deal with her anyway. :( If I'm laning vs her I'll usually be able to shut her down pretty hard due to the fact I know her combos, counters and what to do against her exactly. It's just like how most people would know how their main champ works whether its CDs, their usual build or tactics. but yeah akali is pretty ridiculous when fed so I guess I understand the nerf ^^; nerfs didnt stop me from playing irelia though :( |

I kinda liked Renekton's old one better as well ;__; but yeah I liked Cassiopeia's, it was really good. I think it's weird Riot decides to update champs that don't necessarily need. it. I'm pretty sure we got promised a full rework on Sion awhile ago? and it never happened so that was kind of disappointing :( I guess the demand for Sion wasn't enough seeing as he wasn't popular to begin with. XD tbh I have to agree - she's positioned awkwardly, it doesn't look right. I prefer Akali's old one because rawr spears in your face. idk it's a good splash regardless - they all have their perks. ^^ I still can't bring myself to like Shyvana's new one though, maybe I'm just bad at adapting to a splash that looks so different. :( it was the same thing with twitch when he first got VU'd but I've grown to like his new splash better :)

Yeah some of these reworks are coming by surprise, like Cass's. Although she wasn't in bad need of one this one definitely pushed her to a top tier pick. She is so strong now if you make it to late game with her new passive. Her sustain is great and overall she is actually viable now! As for Sion, he is still getting one. Unlike Cass he is getting a full rework/VU/Splash etc. He will basically be a new champion because he is garbage in his current state. I am pretty sure though they are just taking their time on his so it isn't rushed. I assume we will see him during season 5 or so. Also anyone try Azir? He seems like the most difficult champion thus far, but doesn't look like he is strong enough to warrant picking :s |
he is very strong, I personally cant play him to save my life, but in terms of area/zone control he's pretty rediculous IMO
now it's time for me to try my Yi strategy in a ranked game |
I think the new the Vayne splash is badass, but her icon looks terrible now. It doesn't fit her in game model, but then again I can't think of any of my favorite champs whose splashes actually fit them. (Ex.: Rengar, Riven, Warwick, Wukong). :P
In other news, I bought Talon. Dear god I love him. I think I may have found someone to carry me through games. Can't even get mid or jg atm either, with the Yasuo and Azir rage. WAYY to many bad Yasuos and Azirs. I've unintentionally dodged two games in a row, because I didn't know what role I was playing, so I never picked a champ. Team builder time :D |
I am now guilty of being a Yi player. it seems Ive almsot got it down when I can and cant go in, I jsut stomped a ranked game with him, and I made the jungle jax ragequit. dodging every hook, dodging almost every varus ult and almost every Yasuo tornado.
It ended when the Jax thought he'd try to bait me, but I pulled back, and he qed me then flashed me to try and stun me, and because of his actions, his team wasnt there to save him. he then flamed his team saying it was their fault they wernt behind him. |

As a squishy assassin, you cannot just 'go in' at will, you have to pick your moment very carefully; a window where all their cc spells are on cool down is normally ones best bet.

RIP Talon
They are replacing his 1 second silence with a 0.25 second slow, which isn't even enough for him to land 1 AA for passive unless you are building AS(for whatever reason?). Not to mention he already has a slow on W. Now the Syndra/Ahri/Ori he is supposed to blow up will just blow him up instead as soon as he uses his E to get to them, since he will be right on top of them making him an easy target for most their spells. Most ADC's will just use their dashes and blinks to get away from him and then proceed to rape him with 500+ dmg AAs with 2.0+ AS. Talon is the last assassin that needed to get nerfed. Sure he deals a lot of AoE damage for an assassin, but then you realize Katarina exists in the game, she can blow up entire teams if fed, has easier time killing early and roaming, and does not suffer from the terrible mana issues Talon has. Talon is also one of the only assassins who has no escape once he goes in because he needs to use his defensive spell to kill his target. And i main Talon since Season 3, i know what i'm talking about. |
I like a lot of the VUs... Shyvana's doesn't look very good imo, but I like the rest of the new ones.. Especially Oriana but I'm hoping they make her look good in game for once >_> (classic skin makes me want to vomit because of how different she is compared to the art styles of every other champion in League. Rito please rework.) My personal favorites are Renekton and Oriana but they definitely look NOTHING like the champion in-game and I'm really hoping they change their art style with the change of the Rift and do an art overhaul.. Anyone else hyped for new Summoner's Rift? I'm so excited for the new jungle camps omg so coot ;-;
Anyone watching Worlds? What's your favorite team? Anyone you think will be an obvious choice to win? |
I just bought Talon. FFS.

Why do I always get paired up with the people who don't know how to play?
Seriously, I just played a game where our Nasus died seventeen times. Feed the enemy team some more, why don't you? Now I just wish that Galio could carry teams. He's great in team fights, but he can't just pop in, kill more than one person, and fly away. I don't want to sound like that one guy who complains about their team, but ends up being the guy who sucks, so here's some of my latest scores: 3/3/10 3/1/17 4/8/24 5/3/6 And yes, all of those were defeats... |
I've had games where I was 11/3/10 and we lost. Some people are just so bad that you can't carry them.
|
I had a lot of games where i snowballed every lane, but still lost cause of my teams stupidity like going solo into enemy jungle and doing Baron while everyone on enemy team is alive which allowed them to get free kills, Baron and recover from a curb stomp....
|
Riot seem to love removing Silences lately...

What do you guys think of the new promotional cinematic League did for worlds? What are your thoughts on it?

But yes it was supposed to be the Warriors cinematic. The song was absolutely amazing, already being an Imagine Dragons fan, but I didn't really like the way they portrayed the competitive scene in a very dark, negative way that made it seem very nonprofessional. I can kind of see that maybe they wanted to appeal more to the hardcore fans, but I'm surprised they featured the stereotypes League is made fun of for. Like the toxic players, and the anger, and the hoodies. |
Well in that case here it is.
|
I love the song :D
Can't so I don't wear a hoodie while I play... Just because I wear a hoodie everyday. |
I don't like it, i really don't get what it has to do with LoL, also the singing is hard to hear because the music is too loud.

"Here we are, don’t turn away now – we are the warriors that built this town." It's time for worlds :D "As a child you would wait and watch from far away, but you always knew that you’d be the one that worked while they all play." People play the game for fun, but the LCS players took it to the next level and went pro, hence they work while we all play. |
