    Sejuani is actually less popular than support Nidalee (in my experiences). I think that a lot of people say that she doesn't do anything special, there are other picks that do the same thing more effectively. If you get ahead with her she is kind of funny just because she can build Liandry's and fat into people for days and live on their tears as they can't get away.

    Speaking of Shyvana, somebody explain to me why a Sorc Boots, Liandry's, Frozen Mallet and Sunfire Cape build would be a terrible idea on her.

    Because I just tried it and it worked really well.

    Her W and E are all magic damage.

    I know, I'm asking if there's any major disadvantage to focusing on MPen and free magic damage to take advantage of that. Lack of AD, maybe?

    The log in queue is in the "Over 20000" stage for me. Maybe the servers are borked again?

    I would think it may hurt her late game a bit, but I'm not entirely sure.

    It's the comments like that making me want to play her, but she's a 6300 champ.

    ...she just had a free week too. >_<

    Wouldn't you need Improved CV in order to make it worth it? I can see what you mean though. Knowing where the enemy is going can do a lot for how you respond as far as holding points go.

    People are too fond of fighting in bottom lane, need all the summoners you can eeke out. If you were top lane dom, it would make a lot more sense since you would need fewer combat summoners due to there being more people

    I'm talking about the power of the spell itself. The cooldown is short, the range is huge, and with the mastery it keeps on revealing even after they leave the area. You would think that someone would have figured out how to make good use out of it on SR.

    Give it a few tournaments and someone will put it to good use and it'll cycle back into popularity somehow.

    With the prevalence of wards and heavy (but time-spaced) teamfighting in SR, combat/movement summoners are far more valuable than on Dominion where fights are constant but there is 0 vision. CV is up far more often and the vision it provides is far more valuable than an exhaust or ignite every fourth fight on Dominion.

    Played a bunch of Smite while the servers were borked.

    Y'know, I really do like having bans while in blind pick.

    That's how the EU dominion tournaments are run. Blind pick with bans. Blows my mind.

    So it looks like they are happy with the tresh style passive buildup and are testing it out on Nasus, Veigar, and Sion.

    That would make those champions at lot stronger in lower ELO where people can't farm well.

    So they might change their passives? I like Nasus' passive.

    Unless Talith knows something I don't, he was being unclear with that post. On the PBE the bonuses are doubled for kills of large minions, monsters, and champions. Which is more like Thresh, but isn't close enough to be called "Thresh-style" in my opinion...

  • TalithTalith 変態という名の紳士 Miami, FLRegistered User regular
    That would be me parsing the dev tracker and seeing this:

    Incorrect -- Thresh has functionally no cap on soul collection.

    We are trying this mechanic out on Nasus/Veigar/Sion in the hopes of generating some extra tension over siege minions in lane and enhancing their versatility on non-SR maps. Also, it's cool.

    And being too lazy to actually go into the thread. :3

    Sejuani's always great fun.

    She doesn't feel good at the moment but she's still one of my go to junglers just because of how enjoyable she is.

    People say she has a very generic kit but I don't care, it's about equal to Vi in terms of making you feel like the big bulky chick on a boar.

  • SampsenSampsen Aggressive Berserker Registered User regular
    I love Vi. My only complaints are her dance and her laugh, I think they could have done much better.

  • Albino BunnyAlbino Bunny Jackie Registered User regular
    Why are you dancing or laughing?

    Vi = 100% uptime on punching things.

    If you're stopping to consider how to punch things, or believe you can take a break you aren't punching effectively.

    Sej's problem is that you either have the money for her to be super tanky and deal lots of damage with her W, or she has no money and deals no damage and dies immediately every fight. The reason why Sej is a bad champion is because she has this problem on top of being a very slow farmer.

    All she really needs is a useful passive, and for her Q to give her free armor and MR. She'd still be boring, but at least she'd be decent.

  • CoinageCoinage Heaviside LayerRegistered User regular
    I ended up not liking Vi nearly as much as I thought I would. :( Also she's shouting constantly, it's kind of annoying.

  • Albino BunnyAlbino Bunny Jackie Registered User regular
    I'd love her cooldowns to be lower. Make spamming perma-frost a genuine damage source that'd continue provided she was in the fight.

    Is it weird I think Sejuani might be fun? She seems about as popular as support Nidalee.
    Sejuani is "okay", but she's outclassed by Mundo, Amumu, and Nautilus in basically every way, and her design is stupid. Then again, Mundo outclasses a lot of people these days, and she's getting a rework at some point.
