People that play Kat and get stunned should not play Kat. I played her solid for 4 or so months and for me it was all about waiting. Wait till you see those stuns go off on other players and then jump in. It also helps if you can hide under a giant cho =D
Damn this game. I thought I was over it and its all I've played for three days.
Just had one of those games where we went 0-8 in the first 15 minutes. But it was one of those enemy teams that forever reason can't convert a win from an early lead. They bunched up in mid and tried to push the tower, but couldn't do it because they had allowed my Nasus to farm lanes uninterrupted and I could hold people off at will.
So while we're all having a massive throwdown mid, our Heimer is just pushing side lane towers left and right. They actually let him push all the way to the bot inhib before they broke off to defend. By that point it was too late, I was waaay to strong a tank and our carries had managed to come back.
Makes up the 17 min loss I had the other night because of 2 intentional team feeders.

I never fear death or dyin', I only fear never trying.
So, anyone else been having issues with Malph's ult? I just ulted a Kat + Trynd and landed right on them, doing no damage and no CC (you may note the two characters involve have no hard CC at all between them).
Are you moving after you cast the ult? Maybe trying to ignite when you're at the extreme range of your ult and it's forcing you to run up because ignite's range is smaller?
I just absolutely destroyed as Malz. Went 13/2/16 and I didn't see anything weird happening.

Fuck this so called "All Random" function. I get shoved into Karthus (yay) while the enemy team gets Soraka and Zilean in the recent PA inhouse.
Nunu not built ap carry is bad nunu, a terrible nunu to be precise. rod of ages + banshees should be his only tanky items
Every time I've seen someone build a caster nunu on my team, they've ended up worthless. Can never get his ult off since he gets focused down lightning fast.

Rylai's is decent on Nunu, but beyond that, the enemy team needs to screw up really badly for putting AP on him to be worthwhile.
He's a tanky support jungle. His roles are 1) control jungle and dragon, 2) steroid the carry, 3) slow individual targets and 4) slow the enemy team as many as possible. The actual damage isn't important, but keeping people together so they can't get to your team and your team can freely rail on them is.
One time I was playing sona and a huge fat man was chasing after me with his team in tow, but then I turned around opening one of my nine mouths and sang my song that ends the world while udyr ran in and unleashed his tiger fury destroying them completely as I laughed at their blows glancing off my shen shield.

Malphite, to be clear. And it wasn't anywhere near the end of the range.

YES
i have been saying this for a week now
the timing feels like it's fucked up. i have been whiffing with ults routinely lately, and also they seem to be blocked by all kinds of shit. you can't ult through player-created walls or veigar's cage anymore and i've been hung up on a turret as well.

I don't even know why I play ranked anymore, I have some idea in my head that I will become a better player and raise in ELO but I don't think that is how it works. Start off at a 5-0 tristana, way ahead in CS and Jax goes 0-7 and Fiddle goes 3-8.
I want to get better at this game and I want a higher ELO, I don't think these two things are at all related.
I had one moment last night where I was playing Malphite with some friends, we'd pushed into their base after taking four of them down at mid when they respawn. Their inhibitor is almost down so I stick around slightly longer with a Sivir. This Sivir is sitting on three hundred HP after taking a couple of unlucky tower hits along the way.
The inhib goes down just as their team arrives and we lit out, Sivir's ult is down so we're just hoofing it, but a few of them have ghost and catch up. Mundo unleashes a cleaver, I run in front and take it for Sivir while she keeps running. Their team ignores me while I'm slowed and continues after Sivir. Their Caitlyn gets in range and ults Sivir and I tell my friend to stand in the center of the lane, I ult and knock their team up in the air and block Caitlyn's bullet from hitting him while he makes it safely to the cover of our team.
Sadly I got torn apart by their team after that, but man.
Felt good.

This swain is deadset on letting Tree know how great this supposed Swain + Shen lanematchup is, apparently. Notwithstanding he's playing Swain like crap.

I never fear death or dyin', I only fear never trying.
Malphite is a tank, cho is a tank, amumu is a tank, no one really plays fiddle in ranked and warwick is not an ap carry.
and not a support

He is more of an ap carry the way I see him built in high elo games. But if you want to call him support then he is one of the few support junglers.

It's pretty silly to think of a champion solely in terms of what they build; you need to know what damage they do.
Exactly. He's a giant soak.
If you get a billion AP on him, he's going to die and do nothing at all, especially if the enemy has any silences.

I'll work on it
Yeah, those are about the only two I can see, though I kind of prefer rod more than rylia's.
Malphite, to be clear. And it wasn't anywhere near the end of the range.

you can build amumu and malphite as semi-AP with like RoA and Rylai's
Suggestions?

Thinking of doing a defensive team comp that is really hard to push against.
Janna, Heimer, Karthus Shen/Rammus. A fortify or two.
If losing, tower hug till you get them to do a stupid dive, then counter push.
I always seem to lose games to these types of teams. Particularly if the Karthus ult does enough damage prevent us from pushing.
Who would be a good 5th?
Also, advice on champs to counter team AOE?

You need to be able to win a team fight and if you can do that, why are you tower hugging to begin with?
