So much for my tank support rune page.

That is a huge bummer, I was just starting to really get into Alistar support. ditto on the runepage too.

At least Nautilus is awesome and I'm never playing any other champ ever again.

Yeah, I mean, they lowered the mana on his headbutt/pulverize but it's still hurting my support laning. Like, it's not even worth it to level it up first anymore since 2-3 heals and you're out of mana during a strong push or you're fucked if you're looking to escape.

Xypherous is the best

He's not playing very well : /

Here is a thing that has happened before and just happened again. Twice.

Blitzcrank escapes from a teamfight, then stops, turns around, and hookshots me for no apparent reason.

I am playing Leona and my team is 15 feet behind me.

I was going to write an Irelia guide but then it dawned on me that there is literally nothing I can add that isn't in the several guides that are already out there

It was also way more work than I wanted to do

I can't stand watching a stream when the streamer isn't doing well, I just feel depressed as if I were the one losing the game

....Someone explain Pendragon's build to me.

So he is going to attack people with Bloodrazor and Wit's End and then use Spellvamp to leech life... but I mean, why do this? Wouldn't building straight damage / leech with arpen be outright better?

No idea lol. He usually builds in the most suicidal crazy ways.

I think he's just trying out on-hit/AP Yi.

He won. He built weird, but he won.

Tetris is at least 800% more frustrating to watch than LoL.

I really, really want to learn alistar. I haven't played him since like lvl 10, but the few times I did, I just died.

Chu8?

Delphinidaes

I don't think ending the game at 28-8-8 is doing BAD exactly. He carried the fuck out of his team.

Future Blues

Why does Shen have no elbows? The horror!

I stopped watching really early when he was like 2-5 and had just fed Brand twice in a row

What items do you guys get for jungle Shyv?

I used to go with Ninja Tabi, but after practicing some routes I decided that I manage just fine without them and get Berserker's instead for extra damage output when it's time to go a-ganking.

My route at the moment is wolves - blue - wraiths - golems - red - wraiths - wolves - golems. B, buy Razors.

A bit long and boring, but hey, it's safe.

nah you always want tank boots, tabi or mercs depends on enemy team comp

as for regular items, wriggles -> hog -> boots 2 -> wits end -> more tanky shit built according to team comp

grab an oracles if you feel sassy and wanna fuck with people

get a randuins at some point

Or you could be a bball allstar and get wriggles zerkers witsend warmogs x3. Her ult gives decent enough resists you can just initiate and spam your fuckton of AOE damage while having over 6k hp.

Either works tho.

wang wang why did you leave earlier

interrobang

i had to go to bed, i have work in 20 minutes : ( : ( : (

WhiteShark

I came back and was really sad : (

interrobang

I made it til 1:30 and then I was like man I gotta sleep

We will do games today though! I am off after 11

Echo

Well, did me a botmatch to try jungle routes.

Vlad/Riven went top. Ashe quit straight away, so I had to cover bot. :x

Then Ashe came back, and I started jungling... and Ashe quit again. So I just kept a-junglin' and went bot to punch Taric in the face every now and then to keep him in his place.

WhiteShark

what is that in pst

interrobang

8 am

WhiteShark

aw crap that's in like 2.33333 hours and I haven't slept yet

but games with wang wang are important so I guess I'm not sleeping much tonight

edit: carry me when I fall asleep in my chair

My standard build is to get Mercs, Wriggles, Phage, and WE by 25 minutes, typically in that order.

oh, that's pretty cool

afk during pick

i'll just enjoy my 20 minute queue penalty, shall I?

You need blue, but her ganks are hilarious if for one reason and one reason only. E counters flash. And by that I mean, if you E someone and they flash during the travel time, as they often do because omg poppy! They get snapped back to the spot you charged them from. Even better if you can get behind someone and knock them towards your allies tower.

Also Dragon, Poppy can totally do dragon after wriggles because of Q. And if someone tries to gank you in jungle? Fighting Poppy solo while she has blue is like, the worst thing you can do.

Wriggles/Zerkers (or boots 5 either works) Sheen-Triforce-iEdge-Thirster-w/e (resist for whoever's being the biggest jerk)

Some 2100 dude who made a Solomid guide seems to think otherwise.
Almost makes me want to lane top.

I enjoy playing him, but in lane he feels far too reliant on your partner to actually be half decent. Duo laning with someone that's not taking advantage of your initiation or CC is the pits.

I should try jungling him and having a roaming Alistair, I just find jungling so dreadfully boring...

Custom Special

Wow new Shen.

Arikado

I meet some of the nicest random players the lower I drop in ELO.

I'm serious. People aren't trolling me when I offer to 1st pick and trade for them.

Rami

Just played a team that consisted of Riven, Kennen, Graves, Soraka and Lee Sin.

This is why you don't blind pick.
