    gangplank remake is pretty fun.

    Probably going to buy some runes to do the vamp scepter jungle route on him too

    Still don't like Kayle's early game. Had more trouble than I should have in a coop game getting my initial farm done.

    I feel like Kayle needed a remake, not fiddling with numbers.

    Yes, like make her ranged, or make her melee. I feel useless when fury is down and even once I have plenty of CDR, there's about 2 seconds where it's down where I missed kills.

    Yeah, CDR is vital on her now on top of already needing a Guinsoo + another AS item.

    A teammate just pointed out to me that each of my abilities is an omen of each of the four horsemen of the apocalypse... Unless you play Darksiders, then fury and strife are missing.

    That said, I don't think I've seen a team with a yorik win yet.

    I think once people get a good handle on how to build him he'll be good in the right hands.

    Except in cases where a new champ is blatantly overpowered, people usually harp on about said new champ being underpowered every time, and then someone finds the right way to play them and it's all good (or bad, with the case of things like players discovering roaming Alistar, oi).

    Psh, new kayle is about infinitely better than old. Still not sure whether that makes her, "viable in the current meta" or not, but she is a lot better.

    I'm thinking full caster masteries, mp5 runes, early tear + CDR boots for early game would let her farm safely for the most part.

    I still don't like how easily she gets zoned out by pretty much anyone.

    I'm not so sure. Take new GP, who after my 2nd game I carried with, despite pretty much never playing him before now (I have a few times, but not for many months). I have yet to see any Yorick positively contribute in a significant way.

    Yorick contributes to team moral by being cool other then that he doesn't do much. Also stop picking Gangplank people , let me play him.

    First time I am getting some unexpected login problems... Saying it is a 15 minute wait, and when it tries to login after the wait it says the servers are too busy.

    Anecdotal data supporting an objective analysis of his skills. His numbers don't add up and he doesn't have any skill synnergy like, say, Blitz (with grab, pop, silence for great CC).

    No clue how to build Yorick.. I find it irritating how squishy he is and his damage is awful. Also his W and E scale with physical damage I believe but do magic damage. Also dying and reviving usually accomplishes nothing.

    Also his W has shit range making it pretty useless in a chase.



    Tried new kayle and carried 2 games with her.

    I was really expecting a Kayle remake, and not buffs here and there. Though it seems she'll be able to be ranged more often, i feel that they should have gone and changed her skillset.

    And still no dedicated pet class. Come on, Riot. Where's my DotA Syllabear?

    I just Grand Skyfell directly onto a Lux at half health

    She died

    I laughed

    and the rest of that game went pretty well, too - and we won.

    Also, I know this will be a retarded question, but can people see me coming? Sometimes they don't move at all and I worry I'm picking on developmentally disabled people, and other times they preternaturally shift just beyond my ult when it's too late to cancel

    I'm excited to try Kayle again. I tried learning her when I first started LoL... not too much success. Now that I have more mechanics down and better skills I think I will be able to do much better.

    I just hope I get to lane with a support.

    New Udyr OP as fuck.

    Holy shit. His jungle is faster and safer with Long sword + 1 HP than it was with cloth + 5 HP. Still don't need phoenix stance.

    14/2/7 with 5/5 (or so) dragons and 1/1 baron. I was good with him before, and this mega buff has just catapulted him into hyper carrying. Being able to proc vastly more stances before you get to level 15 + blue buff + chalice is awesome.

    Final item build was:
    Wriggle's
    Merc Treads
    Chalice
    Sheen
    Wit's End
    Vitality Stone
    2.5k gold unspent or so

    In his defense, he's vastly easier to counter than many other champs. A single green ward protects from his ganks, unlike, say, Nocturne, and silence and Ignite are both powerful tools to kill him, while exhaust is good for getting away.

    I think they need to meet halfway between the old mana costs and the new ones, because it is a little too cheap right now.

    I've always found him one of the most fun jungles. I've mained (top 5) him for a while, so this is icing on an already delicious cake, but he's really, really strong right now. One thing I like about him is twitch skill is supported well by his skill set. You need to do a lot of correct actions quickly to win, but he can win big by doing them.

    Honestly, if I thought I could keep him from being FOTM by not posting this here I would not have done so. I'm convinced the marginal effect of my posts here will be fairly minimal.

    Someone is going to get owned as fuck, likely on a stream, and post to the General Forums, and the crying / FOTM spamming will begin, in my estimation. Or, perhaps, he'll sneak by for months, but I doubt it.
