Like a short Range paranoia most likely, making you unable to see your allies/turrets/wards/minions vision while inside the smokescreen

That would make for a good solo top/mid lane, great for setting up ganks.

I hate how good (According to me ) i am with Ezreal, but when it comes to Ult Sniping with him, i fail uberly >.>

I've been getting better at that, but sometimes there's just those games where you miss every single one of them. Last game I played with Ez, I got first blood sniping akali at top from mid, then stole baron later, and hit a lot of awesome ults. And then I've had game with Ashe where I don't hit a single arrow, they always go near the enemy, sometimes the guy is 2 inches away and the make a move (like akali being next to me and dashing to a team mate).

Sniping with global skillshots is a pretty big beast of a skill to handle. There's a lot of things you can do to predict where the enemy will go, and then there's the art of hitting people moving in a straight line from far away, as well as timing. For example, you believe Kassadin post-lvl 6 will move inside the brush at bottom lane when your team swarms him. After waiting for him to blink, you unleash your Enchanted Crystal Arrow and smack him in the face a few seconds later!

I'm thinking of trying out jungle Riven after I buy AD runes. Aye or nay?

Fact is that barrage-Enchanted Sniping arrow are way more slow that what you expect them to be , making all the calculation to get a hit from FAR AWAY in less that a sec its nothing short of a Feat.

I tried riven and it was funny, never jungled with her though.

Prescott usually does well with jungle riven

I've played a lot of Ashe back in the old days >_> I know what it is like.

You have to aim the arrow? Man. I didn't know this.

I never see you jungle a lot. But I guess if jungle Riven is doable, go for it.

Yup. :f6:

So I was looking at Voyboy's stats, looking through his runepage, then I start a game with Manu and Zendaine and this happens :f6:

Had all of his runepages however I don't think they actually worked since I didn't have his flat AD marks when I started.

Akali and GP arts are soooooo much better.

After installing Chinese arts I can never go back. They're just too good!

You need 3 points in brute force for akali's AD passive. Masteries are not saved on the account, but locally.

I checked his stats, he had 3 AD from masteries but not runes AD.

For everyone here:

I just found out that I got selected for the Public Beta Environment (PBE) via email - in other words, beta testing - which means I get to toy with the new sh'its and giggles that Riot has developed and see if there's anything wrong with it before it goes live on the main server.

If you guys haven't, be sure to check your emails to see if you got picked to be a beta tester. I won't mind leaking sharing with you guys what's in the beta server, lulz.

Note: You can only be selected if you're level 30.

Edit: PBE going live for 4 hours tonight from 4-8 PM PST

Didn't get in the beta. Didn't expect to either, since my account is relatively new.

Yeah, and I still die regardless of having a zhonya's and an abyss. I've tried it. If I don't die because of an akali ambush, then she's underfed (badly) or she's being played by someone incompetent... and in either of those cases, I wouldn't need the tanky items in the first place. I'll still get zhonya's & abyss (not necessarily both), for the AP and other effects, but I sure as heck wont build a tank only item like Frozen Heart as was suggested before.


Edit: I would like to point out that I am highly aware of the benefits of defensive items. And I do build them on other champions... just not on lux.

Okay, today I was pondering it at school (god, I'm such a nerd) and I realized I would never get a Frozen Heart on Caitlyn. The only reason I'd even thought of getting it on Lux was because of the 20% cooldown but even then it's still pretty stupid to get it when the opponent 's ad carry is not that fed.

However, I still reason that you should buy at least 1 of the following items, including

-Banshee's Veil. Yes, it's a tank only item. There's a reason why every solomid ad carry guide uses it though. The early Catalyst helps you out too (and it'll hep you surprisingly a lot for assassin ambushes...)
-Rod of Ages. I really think you oughta try this out. The early Catalyst will help your mp problems for not carrying Clarity, plus it gives an abundance of mp and hp and ap.
-Guardian Angel. Eh. I don't exactly like it but some people get it.
-Aegis of the Legion. Well, Lux is a support....
-Thornmail. Only for emergency cases, when the Tryndamere/Gangplank is going 20/0 or something.

I'm sorry for sounding like an arrogant plantain lately. I don't know why.
