Unlock the new skins named Garen and Poppy!

I didn't know what to pick and decided to try out Riven, she's a lot of fun! I got a little fed too so it was easy :B

See I got that impression too. Hopping and flying around is really fun, and her survivability is phenomenal, even if she's kind of underpowered. She's one of the only new champions I want to play.

So who has feedback about xerath? I find it derpy that you can only cast 2 skills "ALMOST" regularly for damage (Aracno Pulse and Mage Chains) and even then at max level 5sec and 7secs its a little too meh X.X (His ult is 60secs). And when you cast those two you have to herp around waiting for those 2-4 secs to go to attack again.

Xerath is a master poker, yes. But his burst is absolute crapp without his ult up.

Back in the day Swain had three skins : Swain, Swain, and... get this, Swain.

2 games with her yesterday and 1 game with her today and I think I got the hang of Vayne now

Definitely thought we were going to lose with their fed Yi and our Yi who had a score of like 1/8/2. We picked it up though and I got a quadra in one teamfight

Does anyone else feel that Talon is a tad bit too strong? Lately I've seen one in every game and they always carry or are 2nd in kills...

Imo, he's on the strong side. His bursting potential isn't as high as LeBlanc's or Annie's, yet his DPS isn't exactly like a carry's either. However, his AoE, trickery, and instant blink+silence combo makes him a problematic contender.

In terms of roles, I heard his early game sucks. He makes a good roamer though.

His early game is weak to ranged harass since that means he's stuck last hitting with Rake, from the little I've observed.

I think he makes a pretty good solo top, though.

Solo top has too many tanky dps. His mid lane is probably better imo; his silence's range is really big, bigger than most casters

Yeah but his silence puts him on harms way if missused (like not having his ult up to escape in case something bad happens).

Yeah... but it's a silence so the worst thing that can happen in a 1v1 situation is you being autoattacked.

Unless you kill him in 1sec (Or at least hurt him enough so he only wants to CC you and run away), the worst could happen.

Why would you engage when you know you're going to die?

Who said anything about engaging in poor conditions?

Im only talking about considering well before blindly using his 1sec silence since he puts you in harms way period.

And the Talons that make him seem OP "consider well" before blinking.

I just realized I have my first at least 10 game winning streak. Damm, thanks Southperry.

What on earth did I just play?

I got invited to an in-house LoL U game. Naturally there's going to be newbs and stuff, but my team had a silver (me) and a lagger. Their team had a silver and a gold.

I played tank Cho'Gath versus Garen (silver) for laning. Here's the shenanigans that happened:
-- Cho's Feast versus Garen's Judgement. I couldn't pull off Feast cause I was OOM, and didn't realize it until a little too late. "oshiet" mode kicked in and Garen tower-dove me. But I popped a health pot, and managed to live with 30 HP after eating his ult, while getting the kill.
-- Lee Sin (gold) was getting all up top tower's grill when I teleported in with less than half health after tangoing with mid's Annie (I had armor deeps, but not MR). I figured he would try to kill me, so I targeted the minions and hoped that the tower would take him out. Nom'd him for full damage (no Feast stack), and lived with 40 HP or so, while securing another kill.
-- FH Cho versus BT Tristana. I knew the best that could happen in laning was a stalemate, so I pushed her tower, and took her auto-attacks like a man, while the minions were doing more damage to her than I possibly ever could.
-- Kog'Maw rushed Banshee's Veil. Oh dear...
-- Lee Sin (gold) seemed less intelligent than Garen (silver). Half the time during strategic jungle skirmishes, I was thinking "wth is he doing?" He even initiated on Morgana while I stood between him and the rest of his team. The resulting team fight was a huge loss for them.
-- I noticed Tristana disappearing towards the direction of Dragon rather suddenly, so I decided to check it out. Blitz, Trist, and Annie were all there. I just waded in and went for Dragon, but I kept on getting CC'd =( Even though they blew everything they had on me, I eventually managed to nom Dragon for the win, AND Master Yi came to clean them up. I never died.
