I think she was supposed to kill a different target but came across the general unguarded so she killed him instead. next day the target she was supposed to kill led the forces.

So, I've been holding onto a bit over 500 of the free RP they've handed out over the years for at least a year now. Iron Solari Leona is on sale.....Yea or Nay?
I don't care what you say, Jayce is ridiculous, and unless they nerf the hell out of Rengar before release he's going to be even more ridiculous, although for a different reason. I don't think there is power creep per se, but they are shoving more and more into champions kits, and I'm really not liking how new champions have abilities that are a previous champion's ability, but better. Jayce's E does more percent damage than Poppy's Q and doesn't have a cap and knock backs. Regnar's Q is a better AS and damage steroid than Yi's ult, and his W is a better tank steroid than Jax's ult. Mmmm.
Man, I think I need to buy Hecarim, I have been dunking fools with this horse.
So I tried that support heimer build in a bot game. It's pretty fun.
They should have won that game, but were not good at team fighting. We had a rough bottom lane from ganks at really in opportune times and the fact that soraka is really good vs heimer [heals your poke back and keeps mana up so they can poke down turrets without losing stuff, AND a passive MR buff]. But they can't fight under your turrets early game [your level 2 or 3 damage is redonk when you're backing off] and can't chase.
Our team fight was a lot stronger than theirs, i just kinda sat in the middle with MR shred and my turrets ruining everything. But part of this was that their shen and darius were really bad at peeling for their Ezreal, who was actually pretty good

Read it again. Yeah she was ordered to kill a prominent soldier, ran across the enemy general instead. Takes out general because he was there, turns out prominent soldier was much more dangerous.

Just FYI if you think Jayce is stronger than Poppy in ideal circumstances, you're out of your mind. Poppy's laning phase and high skillcap/low popularity in general make her underplayed, but she's one of the biggest hyper carries late game there is. A good poppy late game will just ult and kill both your carries while being literally impossible to stop. It's just too hard for her to get there to deal with for most people.
You have to consider the entire champ's kit, not one ability that's comparable to another.
Bootsx3 pots into double Dblades top for Rengar is pretty solid I think. Then a phage, and decide from there based on how you and the other team is doing.
He feels very nice top and can do some awesome stuff to escape ganks by utilizing his passive and the top bushes.

Oh yeah, Poppy is a hyper carry and Jayce is not. I'm just saying it's something that annoys me :P
I didn't realize they changed the voice for Katarina as well. The new voice is substantially worse. They made the lore a lot worse too but who gives a fuck about that nonsense.

Why not just go right to the Phage? Its almost comparable in terms of cost per stats with dblades but isn't as long term wasteful.
Here is a fun little 4v5 I just had for my 2nd Fiora game ever.
Sion was a most excellent gentleman and stunned everyone who approached the premises of the opposing mid. Then they died, and the next person would approach and try to take us on. We were sitting there at ~30% health for several minutes. Interestingly, our Darius had the highest damage stat in the game. He did 30,000 damage to something, somewhere. 6,000 more than I myself dished out.

lifesteal is nice, it's easier to come back from lane with a Dblade, and I like running around with two swords :P
So far Dblades hasn't been wasteful as I haven't gotten far enough in a game to sell one off. and a dblade with a phage is even MORE health MUAHAHAHAHAHA.
Plus 2 dblades is about 950 gold while phage is 1250 if I remember correctly. So I can get them out earlier which is important at top lane.

I also feel like if Jayce were really all that overpowered, you'd see that reflected somewhere. Like dominant tournament play, or win rates or bans in ranked games. But he's not - not in the top 10 for win rates, nor bans, at any ELO. Looking at the top lane matchup chart his win rate is actually pretty average.
A balanced champion across a significantly large sample of games should win about half the time, given people playing in the appropriate ELO etc etc. If you look at most champions win ranks they hover around 50%. Here's a frame of reference comparing win rates of Jayce to another champ that has been deemed overpowered.
Jayce hovers just beneath 50% for the most part. Rumble pre-nerf was seeing 60%+ win rates. Even after his nerfs, he's still had a significantly higher win rate than Jayce.
That quite specifically states the necklace is getting nerfs, not him. Although they will likely fix the Ferocity resetting CD's and such
Nerfing his OP item is nerfing him as well. rickless said...somewhere that the ferocity empowered QWE are separate abilities and have separate cooldowns, so I guess that was intentional.
From what I can see, Rengar looks like a white lion with his mane tied into the hair-do. Probably from the same jungle as Wukong, playing up the "king of the jungle" aspect. Which, of course, is dumb because lions don't live in the jungle.
I will, however, let it slide because lion man is cool.
If my first back as an AD carry has more than 1400 gold I'll get Phage instead of Dorans. The proc is pretty sick when you have laning advantage.
I feel the extra sustain from doran's blade would be better in 1v1 combat which you get into a lot in top lane. Plus it's cheaper so you can get it before they can get a phage provided you are even in CS. And the early advantage in top lane is very important.

Ferocity doesn't reset cooldowns exactly. When you hit 5 ferocity all of your abilities (regardless of whether they were on cooldown or not) become available, when you use one they go back to what they were before. If they were off cooldown they continue to count down in the background.

how did they make somebody whose surname was the french word for knife more embarrassing
her name is Of the Knife, not just knife, that would be silly.

Playing him in a normal blind pick now, I don't know how this will go with our current team

Well it does, but then you can't double Q the enemy and blow them up if you are using your ferocity on your W each time.
It's the choice between going offensive and defensive. With double blades I can go offensive and still have a bit of sustain.
