Well we previously mentioned that Incognito Blitzcrank and Frankenstein Annie would be available next patch, and it looks like my good buddy Slushe was able to uncover three more skins for next patch- Ghost Nocturne, Witch Nidalee, and the highly anticipated Surprise Party Fiddlesticks.

Patch Preview's up.

On a side note, I'm a bit annoyed at the stealth Katarina nerf in the Xerath Patch and the indirect Katarina nerf in the Graves patch.

Okay patch I guess. I can see Skarner becoming FOTM soon. Also wish Corki would get a better buff, but I think I'll still buy him soon.
Gunblade nerf was acceptable. Especially on Akali, the stats it gave really were ridiculous for her regen.
Couldn't care less about Dominion changes. Gimmicky game mode is still gimmicky.

Oh mangz I did a couple mid Anivia games.

The first one was cool, playing with z0mg, will, and Zendaine. Brand was pretty annoying to deal with, but he and the rest of his team were... suboptimal.

The second one was with my real life friends. There was a Katarina this time. Back in the old days, she was one of my banes, so my heart kinda sank. To my surprise though, my strategy of being beefy + retaliation damage netted me first blood. Dem snowflakes are OP.

Overall, my smartcasts are improving (I still use manual casting too), and my map awareness didn't fail.

REPORTED FOR BEING TOO LAZY TO USE WRIGHT'S LINKY!!

(omgomgomg Skarnerssss buffs! The shield thing still sucks though, wtp!)

Dominion requiring skill? Are you shitting me?
Also I don't understand their changes to that mode at all.
"Herpderp, we want the mode to be super fast paced!"
"HurrDurr, we're nerfing certain parts to SLOW THE MODE DOWN!"

I love going mid against squishy AP carries. Good thing their Lee Sin was bad, else I would've gotten countered hard.

I think their main goal here is to make it so that the best team wins, which I totally agree with. My personal gripe about Dominion is that it's really random whether or not your team will win, and even if your team does really well you can lose to either: 1. hypercarries as stated in video, 2. 1 bad player on your team, or 3. one stupid move that loses you capture points (kind of ok with this one). I'm really glad to see they're trying to balance Dominion though, because for all the work Riot put into it, they should not let it turn into another Twisted Treeline.

Also, the Gunblade nerf is amazing. Deals with op jax and akali at the same time.

Have I said I love Fiddlesticks? http://localhostr.com/file/0gp8Q89/Anoth...20Game.lrf

I'll admit to not playing it that often, but an exp nerf doesn't necessarily mean the mode slows down >_> I've seen plenty of games where not everyone gets to lvl 18.

This. It's not like slower level gain makes the Nexus health drain more slowly or anything :S

Slower PASSIVE exp gain just means that if you are terribad dying every possible time and not getting Kill/Assist or at least not killing the ocassional minions you (More like your team) will lose faster .

I understand the EXP nerf, but I'm just talking overall. This isn't the first change / nerf they've done in where it slowed Dominion down.
It just seems a bit weird how they kept hyping Dominion up to be really fast paced and whatnot, yet they're doing these changes to slow it down.

Also lol @ balancing around Dominion. I knew it was only a matter of time before Riot started taking this path.
