So uh, morde is pretty ridonkulus now. Like doing 1000 damage combos at level 6 ridonkulus.
I was browsing the patch notes and it looked like they completely reworked him from the ground up. I'll read over the complete patch details tonight at work, but I was wondering what they did. He was already pretty powerful, so if they buffed him I'm not too happy.
I guess I should consider getting him.
Also, Fiddle got some nice buffs on his drain. Shorter cooldown, more damage (I think), but it's shortened by a second.
There was a Mord who went Bloodthirster, IE and two other crazy damage items and he hurt when he hit you with Mace of Spades but after that it was nothing but VICIOUS STRIKE, VICIOUS STRIKE, VICIOUS STRIKE, VICIOUS STRIKE GOT ALL THAT HP BACK BITCH GOT NOTHING ON OLAF.
I love walking around with an activatable Bloodthirster.

didn't notice he got damage changes, but i did the math and he breaks even the first 3 ranks of drain and does less damage the last two ranks of drain
but he got an extra 0.08 on the AP ratio though... so i guess that makes up for the like, 60 damage total he misses out on at rank 5

Still trying to figure out my new skill order with Mordekaiser now. I skipped Mace of Spades until level 12 because I never used it but now it seems like its worth getting before level 12

Even though it does less damage at rank 5, cooldown is now 4 seconds instead of 10. Therefore it's pumping our more damage if you spam it. Granted it's still less damage/MP ratio. I think it's a great change. I've only played Fiddle twice. Once before the patch and once after. I really enjoyed the shortened cooldown. And the missing damage is barely noticeable.
I played Warwick occasionally before I got Big Bad Warwick. I didn't mind him. I've played him a few times after getting Big Bad Warwick. I like him so much more. Coincidence?

I've been alternating E and Q until lvl 8, where I get a point in W. That Q damage is pretty nice now, despite its AD scaling.

Fuck Leblanc
Can't be CC'd in the middle of a blink
Abuse the shit out of right now guys because it's so fucking broken

Even before, I always alternated E and Q. I never found the shield to be very necessary early on. Maybe like one rank at 4 or something, but E > Q just wipes lanes and farms so good.
or do you mean while the dash is happening she can't be stunned or something
The latter.
I'd have her dead to rights us under a turret with a clutch Binding to the face and she'd charge straight into me, through the binding, finish me off, blink back and run away.
I think she still takes the damage from the skill but whatever.
edit: I have no idea if the former works but the latter is what I am raging about
Played a game with a Leblanc on both teams. Theirs did terribly but ours was awesome. She seems like Kassadin/Akali/Shaco in that properly farmed/fed she will rape faces, but is not totally insane on her own.

That's pretty standard with skills that move you around. Yi can't be snared while alpha striking either. You can hit before or after, but not during the animation.

does akali's dash and shen's shadow dash do the same thing? i guess i shouldn't compare such a versatile dash to something like akali's enemies-only dash, but just wondering
i was curious about what you've experienced though when i laned against morgana or lux, but never actually had it happen cause i was so paranoid about the roots
or do you mean while the dash is happening she can't be stunned or something
Correct.
Do you mean to say that she is not targetable during the blink? Isn't that just like alpha strike?
I know for a fact that if a projectile is heading my way and I blink, it will chase my ass and hit me. In fact the projectile will be fired, chase me, follow me to my blink location, then change direction in midair when I blink back to my starting point.
But unlike Akalli and Kassadin, Leblanc is left holding her imaginary dick once shes blown her load for atleast 5 seconds if she has CDR, which most don't get, so more like 7 or 8 seconds. Akalli and Kass just keep coming and coming and have relatively low cooldowns and good auto attacks to make up for it. She's definetly good, but more annoying than anything.

i think spectrum means if you use distortion towards a dark binding type skillshot root, you'll take the damage and absorb the projectile but not get rooted
I definitely feel like the balance of this game has gone down the shitter in the last 3 or 4 patches. I dunno how to express it except that it just feels "off."
I guess it's just mah losin' streak. Need something to blame it on, right?
Any tips?

I bet Anivia's wall will still bug out something amazing though.
the item SEEMS like it should be decent, but for some reason when I have it, it just FEELS weak as hell.
like I'm wasting a slot.
No. Aegis is p awesome. Think about it:
Let's say you're facing a well mixed team: It gives you health, armor, and MR. And not for an exorbitant amount of gold.
Now: You're facing a team that's all AP and one Phys, or vice versa. You get the proper stat in the main area and it helps you fend off the other area until you can afford to buy a higher en item.
Not to mention it also gives a slight buff to all your other teammates increasing their survivability if even a little.
As long as you're a tank you should probably have one in your build, except for weird circumstances.
People say that LeBlanc is OP, but is she? It's easier to learn to play a new champion than play against them, right?
Once you figure out what she can do and how to avoid it, she can't be too difficult to go up against.
I played with her once. I was Amumu and we laned together. That's a pretty good laning combo. Her chains thing go very well with Amumu's bandage toss.
I was on Vent with the player who was playing LeBlanc and he explained her abilities and how they worked. As long as you keep your distance from her and don't get careless, she can't make you pay for it. The same can be said about Ryze, Akali, and so many other strong burst damage champs.
i admit the one thing about leblanc they could change is her mana costs, i feel practically manaless
dunno about OP though, i feel like i'm destroying the same way i destroyed as akali the first day she came out, gotta give people time to figure her out

Hell, I'm not even sure if she did take the damage, since I did have a teammate there and he maybe hit her with something after she stopped.
I'm somewhat sure that with Akali and Shen, if they try to dash towards a skillshot (or any projectile) they will still eat it in the face.
Leblanc's got strong burst, good range on her skills (especially if she levels Q during laning, fuck that thing), CC on her own, and good movement. All for practically no mana and with decent cooldowns.

I'm wondering if a similar item build would be good on her. Lich's Bane and Rylai's?
