    Invisible Teemo in a bush!

    I park next to him and spam Starcall for a good 90 seconds!

    Nautilus's art and flavor are fantastic. Really dig the sound work on him too. If nOthing else, artistically cohesive and well executed.

    Yeah Nautilus is an incredibly well-done champion. He's pretty balanced right now too, if a tiny tiny bit strong. Now he just needs a Big Daddy skin and I'd never stop playing him.

    What boots do you run on Soraka? I've gone mostly Boots 5, but I'm considering CDR boots to take the edge off the CD on the heal.

    The few times I've gone support Taric I've felt I would have been better as soraka/sona , or if I'm trying to get kills blitz or alistar. His heal seemed almost worthless, so you have his stun and armor boost/dmg.

    I was probably just doing it wrong though

    lmao at that kit after all of xypherous's posts about how giving AoE CC to a support was a horrible decision with sona and they've learned their lesson etc

    gonna be broken as hell

    Well the skill and positioning requirements of something like this is pretty far and above Sona's fire and forget ult.

    true

    but we've got a 100% track record for xypherous's characters being overpowered

    and this character sounds waaaaay too good already

    what are you talking about. riven and renekton got buffed immediately after release. just because they got overbuffed doesn't mean they were overpowered to begin with.

    Poppy with boots 3, Triforce, and Miracle can chase down Ezreal, even after three wall jumps.

    Also, Poppy versus GP top with Tryndamere jungle? It's like you want me to get fed.

    Kennen/Galio/Fiddlesticks/Leona/Ezreal.

    SO MUCH FUN.

    I went up against Malz mid as Galio just to get over my mortal fear of that floating purple guy. He'd throw a full combo on me and it would do like... nothing. It was so good.

    I have the same problem. The heal does very little and eats mana, and I feel pretty useless having a melee attack. It annoys me because Taric was my first "main" back when I had no idea what the game was about and thought Taric was best used to teleport in with some minions and sneakily demolish towers.

    Taric is clearly underpowered relative to other support choices at this point in time, in my opinion.

  • Options
    CarnarvonCarnarvon Registered User regular
    Taric is a manly man for manly players. You just gotta max out Shatter asap, and take armor yellows, reds, and quints (HP5 quints also work).

    All you gotta do is run in and tank the enemy team while your carry cleans up the mess you leave behind you. Once you hit level six, ERW+Exhaust followed up by your Caitlyn or Sivir landing a clean Q and two auto attacks is about 70% of a carry's or support's life bar, and since Taric is rocking 120 armor at this point, he's mad baller at taking tower hits.

    Yes, but a Malz in that situation should just farm really hard and push. then he should gank sidelines.

    what are you talking about. riven and renekton got buffed immediately after release. just because they got overbuffed doesn't mean they were overpowered to begin with.

    Well, Renekton got a nerf hammer on him like the Fist of God on the day before release. He was, by all reports, more OP than release Xin Zhao so they nerfed the shit out of him right before they released him. Go check the champion spotlight. At level 11 at 1/0/0 he 1v2s jungle Irelia with red buff and heimerdinger, under hiemer's turrets then tower dives them for the double kill. His cull and stun both have 3 second cooldowns with just brut/kindlegem. It was fucking insane. About a day after release, they admitted to doing a last second hatchet job just so he didn't break the game, and doubled a bunch CDs and nerfed his base stats as well. If it hadn't been for that, Renekton would have gone down in memory as the most OP champ ever.

    Seriously, I'd play the shit out of Renekton if he still had 13/12/11/10/9 sec cooldown on slice and dice, 9/8/7/6/5 sec cooldown on his Q and W, and 120/90/60 cooldown on his ult.

    Edit: Lulu has a Baker's Daughter type skin whose polymorph model is almost certainly a cupcake.

    Fucking sold.

    Renekton's cooldowns are just too goddamn long right now for what he does.

    Its too bad that Renekton is going to continue to be not-so-great for a long time because Riot is "scared" of buffing him out of control. When, Realistically, he just needs a real passive and reduced CDs. Maybe a change to his Q so that it actually does some healing

    one of my favourite deaths was kiting Wukong all the way from his second top tower to my second top tower as Janna before I died

    and only realizing after the fact that he had boots 2 and I had forgotten to buy any

    He tried that. I'd push right back, soak up his DoT so his push wasn't as effective, and follow him to the sidelane. It was glooooorious.

    Her AP and possible AD applications seem so good, the only reason she would be played support is because thats somehow even better.

    But that Q could really really be a pain in he DICK mid with that damage CD and range. Stand back shield minion to prevent them last hitting hit Q from miles away harass. Be a dick.

    Also 60 AP at max rank W, thats not bad. Not great, but not bad.

    New AD caster item is not from brutalizer :(

    Its just an improved Hexdrinker. 55 AD 35 MR 400 magic damage shield and 1 AD per 2.5% hp missing.

    so 40 max AD if you.... are dead.

    ehhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    Its not a bad change, I guess cause hexdrinker was a good item that suffered from nothing to build into.
