Original League of Legends (LoL) Thread

Dam they're making wards show when you teleport to them, it was too fun to tele to one and have the enemy freak out.... specially taking Tele on teemo, that was so fun to tele into lane spawn close to enemy and kill him...

Edit:
Yorick:
Omen of Death
Removed the health decay on the Revenant and Reanimated pets.

That looks... scary... if it doesn't decay, it can turn 1v1 into 2v1, 5v5 into 6v5, and then if the original is killed there's a new copy.... hope it gets a timer of some sort, cause otherwise I can see it messing when the copy stays alive longer than the revive timer, leave aside other things that could happen.

Hmm... Me wonders... Lux, Ezrael, Ashe, caitlyn, GP?, Karthus.

Choose any 5 and during showdowns just unload all 5 ults. That would badly cripple the enemy team before even initiating wouldn't it? I realize that this team is left tankless, but what about 4 ults and a tank... amumu maybe.


This is for confrontations in mid ofc.

Mostly works if you can catch them off guard of course. Having ashe fire the arrow first helps. Preferably from the jungle or a weird angle. Signal your team mates. Ashe fires, arrow hopefully catches them off guard and causes 1 or 2 to panic... rest of team fires +runs forward... amumu flash+bandage+ult... clean em up.

I hate how a red says they'll revert Jax's nerfs, buff him and that it's a high priority to fix Jax

..Then they do neither of those.


At least revert the nerf, damn.

Pretty pissed off at two things:

1. Udyr is still allowed to be the real immovable object from lanes. He is the only champ that still procs healing from the bonus damage on wriggles, letting him also regain his mana too.
That's a huge issue if they are willing to nerf warwick for that very same reasoning.

2. Alistar nerfs across the board.... WOW... I don't even know what to say, except that I just want old alistar back at this time. He was so much better than this piece of pomegranate we are left with now.

Glad Alistar is getting nerfed because I'm so bored of seeing him everywhere.

Also not sure why everyone is begging for Jax buffs when the other day he jumped me on Janna and auto attacked me twice and i died. and on the subject of Janna, here's a game from the other day if anyone would like to critique.
I'm pretty new to her (couldn't resist Hextec Janna sale)

-looks at record of me as Amumu vs Udyr- Na.. he's still my peach. Feed off Udyrs as Amumu all day every day.

Leona's released... and I spent my riot points... fuck time to get more again...

You haven't seen any good lanedyrs stomp solo top before? Then you would be in for a treat because I see it quite often lately.
I think you can see it on therainman's stream he plays a mean lanedyr pretty often since his buffs.


Anyways I forgot to mention earlier I am happy for the minor ryze buff. I was hoping for an ap ratio increase but I'll take w/e I can get for my favorite caster.

Leave Udyr alone

Lane Udyr:

- Turn on Turtle Stance for lifesteal/mana regeneration persistent effect
- Use the active effect (turn on Turtle Stance) to handle harassment a bit better
- Poke minions, heal up mana and HP. What is harassment? I don't feel it!
- Grab Madreds Razor when you have enough money, same goes with upgrading Razors to Wriggles. Now enemies can't do sh'it to you because you have at least 30% lifesteal with Turtle Stance on and Wriggles equipped, and wipe out minion waves too fast!
- ?????
- Profit! Problem, laning champs?

Just as good as a Lanewick! Too good! Inb4 Riot tones Udyr down (though I don't want this to happen. He's amazing!)

Also, I think that with the new dodge on custom being easier, ARAM will be a lot harder to get into, people will dodge a lot when they don't like their champion, or when enemy has a Soraka or things like that =/

Very minor nerf to gp. I am pleased.

Very happy for kog buffs

Leona, the Radiant Dawn champion spotlight!

That new Amumu skin is amaze.

Also im gonna start playing Jungle Amumu because i dont really get enough cs in lane to become tanky. Any tips? i tried 1/15/14 starting with regrowth pendant in a custom with a friend and i could clear blue wolves and wraiths before going back and getting a Philo. (Mana problems when blue is down and not respawned made me get this)

I'm instabuying Leona, just to let you know.

Shame she can't jungle. I still need to learn how to play a jungler (and....how to play carries again).

Seems like in general you may be too conservative about using Flash and your ult. Also, you seem forgetful about the full potential of your abilities at times (such as shielding turrets in laning phase).

Other things I would criticize would be your general abilities, and what apparently seems like locked camera.

Last but not least, there was one instance where you decided to push a lane that was already pushing itself while the rest of your team went off doing other things. It turned out well this time, but it would be much better if you stuck around your team and helped them out.

Lane Udyr will be the next big thing after Lanewick gets more nerfs, assuming he does in the future.

This was one of my first normal games where i did unlocked camera, so forgive me if it seemed like i was missing something obvious. I was hasty when using my ult because i know sometimes you can use it and make a situation worse for your team, or use it with flash and end up dead :x

Start at blue golem with standard cloth armor and 5 pots, get someone to leash and just keep your Despair on and smite when it's around 500 hp, it won't take long, then just go down the jungle killing everything (Blue->wolves->wraiths->Red->golems), turn despair on when you arrive a camp and turn it off while moving. Use your E at camps to speed things up.

I take flat HP quints, Flat armor Yellows, magic pen. reds and MR/lvl glyphs. After I clear the jungle, I generally have around 200 HP and 2 potions left, I go b and buy boots and a ward or 2. I go WEEQWR for skills, taking bandage at 4 to gank since I have boots and cleared jungle.

Items I always go for mercury's threads, then get a Chain vest and a Negatron cloak and build according to the situation, who's carrying and who's the biggest threat.

You made a good choice my friend. Once you start doing jungle Amumu, you will never, EVER want to lane again.

First thing I would do is get Cloth Armor + 5 pots. This will ensure that you mitigate quite a bit of damage that jungle creeps deal to you, and ensure your survival. Start at blue first, and its a must. You are a mana hungry SOB and having the blue buff will ensure you can use all of your abilities while jungling. Have your teammates guard you from any counter-jungling activity, and have 1-2 of them help you leash when the blue buff golem spawns.

Then you pretty much go down the jungle and take out the Wolves camp, the Wraiths camp, then the Red buff camp, then the Golem camp. Be sure to use your health pots at Ancient Golem, Elder Lizard, and the Golem camps. By the time you clear out the entire jungle, you should have 1-2 health pots left, have red and blue buff on you, and have 1 in Bandage Toss. Go heal up using the remainder of your health pots, and gank enemies in bottom or mid lane, if at all possible.

Oh and things to watch out for: blue buff stealing (high risk, high reward), and enemy stealing the blue wraiths (low risk, low reward; this is mostly an early game counter-jungling strategy that will set the targeted enemy jungler back a bit). Of course, these are counter-jungling strategies, so feel free to use this strategies to your own advantage (though at your own risk!)

After that you can continue jungling, ganking, and build up your tanky items. You can convert the Cloth Armor into Aegis of the Legion or Thornmail.

My early game ability build: 1 Despair --> 1 Tantrum --> 1 Despair ---> 1 Bandage Toss --> 1 Tantrum --> 1 Curse of the Sad Mummy (ultimate).

Oh and most importantly...since you are a jungler, be sure to have wards up at brush adjacent to lanes, your blue buff camp, red buff camp, dragon (early-mid game), and Baron (late game). I cannot tell enough how wards are so helpful to you, especially as a jungler. It could save your life, or a teammate's life. And prevent an enemy jungler (or any other enemies) from stealing the buffs you need.
