    Ezreal's ratio on Trueshot isn't going to be that bad.

    It's just bonus damage.

    I mean, the most AD I got in any of my most recent ezreal games was 235.

    You're capable of getting WAY more ability power that that. So, great, my Trueshots will do about 880 damage instead of 650, not a MASSIVE OMFG increase but a nice needed boost.

    Aye not overpowered at all, but as an Ez player it's a hella nice boost. In your example that's a good 25+% boost. That's a very good amount.

    Oh, I'm not complaining, I'm just saying, Bagel said why not start at a .5 ratio.

    And I'm just saying starting at a .5 ratio would be fucking stupid, I mean, whoop, +100 damage. Great. It isn't like we stack MPen as AD Ez.

    ...but that's just it. With that change, doesn't armor pen count to his ult now?

    No. It gets a bonus from AD, the damage type of the ability itself did not change.

    Thanks.

    Flashing out of Jarvan's ult before he lands then watching him stand there while you run away because they don't realise they can cancel it is the best thing.

    One of us can burst the other down from 80% HP... the other... cannot. So all that trading blows? You might have thought you were coming out ahead in harassment, Teemo, but in reality...

    Hilarious moment last night when our ward saw a teemo camo right near baron. 3 of us walked there, I turned on despair as amumu and just... waited. Around half health he made a break for it. Almost made it.

    Teemo doesn't really have any burst damage. You get his attack speed stupid high, his AP as high as you can, and AB to make the poison be pure evil.

    Now, you let him do that a lot... you've got problems.

    seriously I bet he could do zero damage and be a viable champion with that skillset

    also, in the one game I've played so far, minion changes have increased lane passivity like WHOA

    I wonder if a lot more people will start running teleport. I usually do if I know I'm soloing. Go back, buy, and get back before the minions get to the tower.

    yeah teleport seems a lot better
    my game had an off-pushing shaco, and he would take out half a turret before teleport could channel
    I think they may have made turrets too weak

    I really don't like solo for laning, if you time if right you only miss two creeps or so without it. Ignite and flash is a really good combo on most solo laners.

    It's not about missing creeps, it's about getting tower hits while you're gone. Especially since split-pushing teams are fairly common.

    No. It gets a bonus from AD, the damage type of the ability itself did not change.

    Which would be a good thing to bring up just in case people were not aware.

    Abilities often get bonuses applied from AD or AP, however each move has a certain damage type associated with it that is visible in the tooltip.

    This is why people get confused when they go against people like Katarina. Her moves scale with both AD and AP but they always do MAGIC damage. It is important to understand what damage type your enemy is bringing to the table, to do this it is important to understand what damage their abilities do.

    would be nice if riot made this a little more intuitive

    like, the only way you can tell is in the after-death kill recap (which is half the time inaccurate anyways) and you get some winners like kog'ma's artillery listed as "Damage"

    the current system for determining such a vital aspect of the game is just stupid and broken.

    he's not amazing against AP characters or even ranged carries

    but he's brutal against melee carries or bruisers. like, you just shouldn't lane a melee character against teemo is the lesson i've learned.
