: Keep in mind the fact that her gold income as a support is challenging balances the fact that you buy Lethality on her. Expensive items at a slower rate. Also, the new support items are going to make that even harder, since after 1000G, they stop giving gold now (where season 9 Frostfang can gain 3-4k gold over a game)

As well as the gold value in stats they give you. Part of that is mitigated by having no scaling ad. Put really, I think that helps support my thoughts. She has the potential of having dual balances. Buying expensive lethality/ad for poke and burst, or cheaper enchanter items for stronger heals and utility. Having her healing scaling so well with ad builds is limiting to me. I think it could be a great way of macro skill expression. Understanding which route to follow for any particular game.

Honestly people just had less money to put toward damage in general because they were so busy buying greens and pinks, and it was also more common to actually keep buying health potions well into the mid game. (No corrupting pot either, only "Crystalline flask") this too. i never realized it but health pots and mana pots did serve an important purpose. they artificially delayed damage items but gave people sustain which in a sense increased tankiness. this might be one reason why games back then were longer. that and the gold being wasted on wards. sure the map would occasionally be lit up like a Christmas tree but it was a worthy price to pay.

I'm actually fine with shorter games. When I have a 40-50 minute game, it can be a slog. Some times that's okay. What I really hate is when a game becomes an absolute slaughter-fest with no outplay potential. One recent normal game I was in had a Darius ending with 28 kills. He could fight our whole team. As fed as he was, Ashe and I (playing senna) crushed are lane too. We could kill 2 or 3 others, then he would clean up the whole fight with yummi.

Honestly permancy. I really thought blitz would stick around too though. There are times i just dont want to play the rift, and i have to be in the mood for aram/tt. It would be great to have a rotating game.mode up all the time. I like all of them and am really missing them.

Like if that is a legit reason to mess around with a champion, then over half the roster should be gutted. The Teemo rework they are working on they keep stating to be because they want him to be less frustrating to play against and so they want to shift his gameplay away from the shrooms which is like the main reason people play Teemo to begin with.

Not employees who have a personal vendetta against the champ because they think they are not fun to play against. Dude im fine with teemo shrooms. Map awareness and vision control are the counters. What i hate about teemo is he has like 6 different meta builds, ranging from machine gun posion darts, nuclear ap burst, to even ranged tank harassment. I think champ versatility is one of the games weakest points, but Teemo has it in spades over everyone else. That and im really tired of his reliable dot on autos. Even only taking one or two autos while going forward for 1 or 2 cs ends up being the same damage you would take if you stood there trading with a melee

: The counter strategy, get this, isn't to build against it. It's to *play* against it. Fiora without her ult is the easiest example, you just need to actively keep your weakest side away from her. Even when she Ults, you can deny her a single vital just by standing in a wall. Vayne's a little trickier, because her play around isn't in 1v1s, especially since both Fiora and Vayne are duelists. Her play around is in teamfights, where you need to get her to switch targets, or where you can abuse her short range to lock her down. The main thing Rageblade does, which is the problem, is that it lowers the time it takes for Vayne to proc her things. This gives her a better late game, but it's because she has less of a window to force her to switch targets before she gets that damage. I think that's where the problem lays, that Vayne has lost some of the 'play around' she should have because of RageBlade.

Would be awesome if something like that happened at 16

: I mean the lore isn't REALLY that different..before Yyva hunted Shyv down because she was stolen, same now. Before she was stolen by her father after hatching because she was messed with by a mage, which now instead of being taken by her father after hatching she was taken by a mage before hatching. I mean it's really not that big of a change. You quoted "We don't like change for the sake of change", correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you like complaining for the sake of complaining.

It's not really. Shyvana is an outcast, her mother hates her deformity, and she finds solace in Jarvan. My problem is that this new bio feels hollow. Devoid of emotional resonance. Why did the egg get stolen,.moneys. Why is shyvana deformed, just because. Why does the mage keep her, because reason unstated

Man this is a huge disappointment. Thief is a Jack ass that only didn't sell her because she looked human now. I feel nothing for him or care what happened to him.

Just take a break for a bit. Decompress. A game shouldn't be work or stressing. Even if you play "competitively". Losing sucks. I felt this way my first season too (season 7). My moment of clicking was not valuing the result but the journey. Also, even though he is a top main, I really recommend Solo Rekenton Only. He explains a lot of thought he puts into his actions and macro points of the game I use to never think of

You did good on 2 dimensional stuff with Kayle making her just a zealot. The thing is, light can be blinding, and Kayle took her "justice" to an extreme measure. Not only that, but the one thing to keep in mind was that angels were never "human" to begin with as they always had an air of distance. And if you think about the light and dark when it comes to humanity, I want you to really take a moment and look at where we are on the spectrum as a race. if a being of darkness and a being of light approaches, we all know what we SHOULD theoretically say. "The light." But when it comes to people in emotional turmoil, angsty teenagers, or any random sarcastic internet troll will tell you: "We gravitate towards the dark." So for "The Light" to be the super good in our minds, the dark would have to be stereotypical evil damnation. And Netflix still have to tell people that TED BUNDY IS NOT A SEXUAL ICON! He's a serial killer. ___ That, and if you want to wash any of that away, we can always look at it as an "Era of Times." If you think about comics in the 50s, it was so black and white with "Good is Good" and "Evil is Evil" that there is no confusion. For this era of writing, it's possible that this writing isn't actually "better" but more servicable of the collective consciousness of morality and what is considered good or evil. Or simply "good writing vs bad writing." Afterall, we still have people who hates anything with super heroes cussing, even if it would have made sense for their personality. We all know how much a person can swear in a typical day let alone hour long conversation. Just one swear word, and hell breaks loose.

But they have replaced one end of the spectrum for the other.

Hey was evil. Plain and simple. He tortures and kills. He has a turn around and decides to leave Palpatine behind instead of killing his son. But Vader was evil

I don't dislike new kayle, but the texture looks so weird in the video. It looks like weird latex. And I've played a lot of kayle. I've got mastery 6 on her. But I'm still gonna miss her heavy armor. I think the abilities look super fun and a huge step in making her competitive with newer champions.

I have to say, I like it. Also not to mention the Targonian are a star faring peoples, you'd expect them to have futuristic stuff. My only issue is that the armor where she DOES have it just doesn't look USED enough, it needs more battle damage. I hope people will come to understand that because Kayle isn't a tank she shouldn't have as much armor for gameplay visual clarity reasons.

Sure I get that. But she doesn't need full plate. Hell chain could work. Or anything but the skin tight. I love the growing wings and double swords. But that texture skinsuit looks so so weird

I would really love to see a lifeline item that {{champion:517}} and {{champion:131}} can use. I really want to play those two like a Darius build. But its easier/better to build them full ap and just try to nuke.

I believe the buff monsters don't die to dots. It's one of their things to make it possible to share them later in the game.
