EDIT: Deathcap confirmed to be nerfed next patch
http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board/sho...p=10784702

Unlike you, I have had the most wondrous luck in ranked matches. I won my first 2 games. The other team was just trash.

Oh you'll be facing some tough stuff sooner or later. Nothing will be perfect. :3

I think I'm going to be playing cow in the first round of OAT. I just hope he doesn't get anymore nerfs before that begins...

Oh and nerfing deathcap is retarded. They really need to just up the gold cost if it's "too powerful" that god d@mn classick is
getting to be worse than NMST. Deathcap is the staple caster item just like old zhonya's ring was, the split made deathcap
necessary since we lost out on the active portion of zhonya's.

I hate that they keep nerfing things in RE to casters but seem to not be able to make good caster items to give us options with.
I swear to god they better be releasing to some flat mpen items and some other new items.

Maybe casters were still too powerful, given the 6 item limit? 200 AP in a single item is kinda wowsers, especially since if certain casters get somewhat fed, they can wombo combo squishies and get out of control.

Epic double sax!

Freaking B> THIS as our Season 2 loading screen!

That loading screen would be way too awesome.

The deathcap thing sucks...to me it seems unfair that the highest AP base item (long rod) can only be turned into 2 things, one being utility and the other power, while AD can turn BF sword into 3 things, and they're all excellent choices.

Holy triple lag.

Holy triple lag.

Nuu.... nidalee heal nerf D:

Are there going to be any changes to nidalee in the future ???? she going to get nerfed or buffed or most likely stay the same ??


She is on the board, slated to get improvements. We are looking at pulling down sustain / healing across the board right now, so we want to mix in some buffs when we tone her heal down.

I like it when people who get carried in a game start saying how it was 'so easy' that they won when its over.

Stacking Archangel on Swain must be real terror.

NMST is on a roll this week! Corki moderate nerfs, Ashe getting an extremely small CD nerf.

We'll be doing some things to Corki to get him closer to acceptable. From there, I think the viability of other AD carries will really be presented. I still maintain that Trist and MF would be a good pick in the absence of Corki's current power level.

Ashe is getting a really small CD nerf this patch. Ashe is...Ashe. She'll always be a competitive pick based on how much utility she provides. Corki just does superior damage, has an escape, and has good burst. Right now, it's a "why not?"

About time too.

I'm calling it now: NMST nerfs Arrow CD so it's 5 seconds later, and Volley gets a second nerf. Seriously, it's really spammable compared to the other carry spells, and it's an excellent bubble popper. Depending on the Summoner Spells patch changes (whenever that is), he will nerf Hawkshot too.


EDIT: So I heard rumors that the new map Riot is working on is called Ice Vault. And that it will be 35v35.

Please tell me you made a mistake with the "35"... that would mean "own every champion to play" ranked or "own 35" to play normal.

They better leave Corki's passive alone.

I'm not surprised about the nerfs, they've been targeting Champions that did really well at DH lately.

GP was getting fed up the ass off of Irelia top lane, and we tried multiple times to kill him, only succeeding once. So as Ashe, I decided to say "fk it" and bought Thornmail.

Next thing I saw, GP tried to pistol me. His IE crit went from half of my health to only a quarter of my health, and him being dead. lolololol

Everyone just hated him from that point onward, while the rest of his team (Kennen, Dr. Mundo, AP Teemo, Warwick) was "meh".

As I said, it's a rumor. And I don't believe the 35 part either.

Besides... seriously, 70 people in the same game? Meat grinder much? AoE would be OP.

They better leave Corki's passive alone.

What is much more likely to happen is that he'll receive blanket damage nerfs all across the board.

EDIT2: This is one lulzy arrow xD I think I'll go ahead with the Ashe arrow montage, though personally I don't think it'll be as good as Purple's Pantheon mandrop montage.

Epic deathmatch inbound. Also it's already bad enough Riot's servers aren't exactly top notch, so having a 70man brawl can ONLY lead to extreme disaster.

It just sort of popped into my head because of what they did to Irelia, since Corki does all three types of damage as well. Passive makes last-hitting so easy in the first few levels.

My speculations on corki nerfs:

1. Rocket reload counter time increased.

2. Rocket mana cost increased slightly

3. Armor shred from gatling to be reduced per tick.

4. Passive % damage conversion from 10%>8%.

5. Q will remain untouched most likely.

6. Valk will probably get it's cooldown time increased by a second or two.


^^ That's my theory and they will probably do a decent amount of what I just listed to him. He really outshines every other dps carry in pretty much any situation.
Do you need great aoe? check
Do you need insane armor reduction? check
Do you need a great mid game and an even greater late game? check check
Do you need the highest single target ranged dps? check
Do you need the best escape/gap closer out of all the ranged dps? check....

The dude is really a god if you stop and think about it. The only real problem here is NMST needs to think about buffing the other ranged dps utility and damage, not just nerfing corki (and a little bit ashe nerf).

What they did to Irelia was change her ult from magic damage to physical damage. And the damage nerf wasn't exactly everything.

I don't have much of a handle of what it's like fighting against Corki, but all the Corki players I do know of tend to dominate mid and carry the game.

Corki and Irelia both deal(t) all three types of damage. I was thinking of them wanting to change that to make the champ more counterable.

One of my favorite aspects of Corki is that even if I'm losing my lane very early, everything gets better as soon as I hit level 6. Dat mid-game.

Ugh, I hate stupid people...
>I'm Jungle Udyr
>Solo top Cass disconnects
>Cait DOESN'T go top even when she's duo bottom.
>I have to take solo lane.
>I lose tower but got 2 kills from them diving me and me going bearrrr

Yeah we surrendered soon after we realized that cait was HORRIBLE (exhaust and clarity were a hint) and that the rest of the team was bad too.

Edit:
Ew... So I had a game with 2 guys I met loooooong ago back when I wasn't even 30, met them in a 4 man premade and I fit well so we made a few full premades after that every night for a week or 2, they were AWESOME back then and it was mostly wins.... now it was HORRIBLE.
One of them, who used to be the best on the group, fed like hell, he went 2/10/3 on Akali, the other one was just stupid, he did 0/13/2 on Sion, they were laning against Ashe/Kat, and that lane got so OP that mid game Kat was 9/0/6 with Ashe 6/0/7, it was stupid.
Later Kat was 19/0/x and Sion's items were a Warmog's, a chain vest , shoes and a purple cloak thingy for critical... seriously? go armor first when Kat is 19/0.... we were crushed.
