    I wonder if triforce would work on xin zhao. I mean, it gives AS, slow, move speed, and health ++ I am pretty sure his three talon strike and E skill scale off of magic damage and stuff.

    It works very well, but building up to it blows ass.

    It's actually one of the easiest items to build up towards because you get nice upgrades along the way.

    Sheen, Zeal, Hammer (the name escapes me atm) Each of these are decent upgrades in their own right, the final buy is just a culmination of all these items.

    Tristana

    I don't see the free week news on the main site. Is this the correct lineup? Wow. I think Riot is trying to say "sorry for the mistakes last week". Although why even bother with tristana if you can get it free from facebook?

    It's going to be hard to not play Kass and Gragas this week in hopes of facing a nice twin. Might have to make this goofy build smurf week. Starting with sunfire soraka. :P

    saying a champion is melee and still has inherent restrictions

    like

    she has a really good blink

    so that kind of nullifies that part of it

    Almost every melee has a good blink/gap closer. The real problem ends up being what you're capable of doing/tanking when you get there. A ranged champion can be 600 or so range away and still deal damage, placing them in the line of fire of maybe 1-2 champions. A melee that blinks into a teamfight is now in range of the entire enemy team and can easily be exhausted/ignited/focused down in a second or two. That's the problem with being melee.

    You're also more vulnerable to being kited as a melee. Simply walking away from a melee attacker will drop that champion's DPS considerably, even if the melee is faster than his target. Add a slow into the mix and you're now at 0 DPS.

    Speaking of Xin, I did a kind of weird ass build with him last night, as I was stuck in a duo lane and couldn't really 'carry'. I went with a tiamat/wriggles as my first two items. When wriggles procs, it splashes the hit around him, making farming really easy.

    I got merc treads, wit's end, a sunfire cape, and a spirit visage to round out my items. Was fun, but not terribly broken.

    I ended up 5/5/9 or so.

    Nice, I was saving up for Irelia. As a side note though I played a game as jungle WW against a team with jungle Irelia. She got first blood on our bottom lane but then I came to help my mid Ryze to gank their Kennen. As I'm standing in a side bush Irelia comes up through the river. I left with a double kill and snowballed from there.

    I should play more Critplank though and demand top lane.

    wicked, i can't find your karma build. Can you post it again?

    A quick summary:

    Start Doran's Ring
    0/21/9
    MPen / Flat Armor / Flat MR / HP Quints (considering playing with the quints)
    Ghost / Teleport

    Skill Priority: EQW

    Grab a solo lane if possible. Harass the hell out of your opponent, as you can generally be safe from their return due to the shield. Your lane is pretty much going to be pushed, but only the best gankers can actually kill you before you can escape, so it hardly matters.

    When you get 1185 gold, go back and get Philo + boots 1 + 1 HP pot. Preferably you won't have to back before this. If you do, use your judgment what to buy.

    Items Karma wants:
    Merc Treads (every game)
    Shurylia's (every game)
    Heart of Gold
    Chalice
    Rylai's
    Deathcap
    Morello's / that thing which I don't remember the name of that you shoot with the active ability.

    You want high defense, high mana regen.

    In a team fight, your job is to stay alive while keeping other people alive with shields, and more rarely, heals. Since healing is kinda weak and takes a Mantra charge, shields are your primary way of helping. Bitch any any teammates sitting at default armor / MR late game.

    Use Mantra Charges:
    On Shield: Almost Always. It's great for farm, 1v1, and team fights
    On Q: Rarely. It helps when shield is down or for a bit of sustain, but her heal is pretty soft.
    On W: Almost never. It's a damn good slow / speed with Mantra, but I find it fairly rare when you don't need the charges for the other two abilities, and you should have a Shurylia's anyways.

    3 talon applies on-hit effects, yes. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't zomg incredibly effective, but it worked. It definately screws over squishy targets though.

    Ok, well, it would be really sweet for farming, which was the part I like.

    But thinking about it now, does Tiamat work with Xin's ulti? Cuz I mean stacking a bunch would pretty much just mean team kills.

    Nothing scales with Xin's ult. It just does what it does and you can't increase what it does, only lower the cooldown/increase your armor penetration.

    No, you're right, it only affects auto attacks. Those specific abilities mention that they apply on hit effects, so those are exceptions to the rule.

    Her ult is kinda wonky half the time. When it lands, it's super nice - but when half the other team literally just keeps attacking/walking out of it, a little poop comes out.
