    Killing players who are obviously DC'd hacks me off to no end.

    Them auto backing is already going to give you an advantage you wouldn't have had anyway, what's the point in killing them? I mean, I get sometimes it's not obvious but I've literally had someone go for the kill after a players being standing still auto attacking minions for a good fifteen seconds.

    And using all chat to instigate infighting is bad and you should feel bad. Play the game, not the players.

    whats the point in killing them? the experience and the gold.

    as for playing the players, that is playing the game. insert Sirlin's article on scrubs here.

    The player disconnecting is clearly not an intended part of the game and is likely down to factors out of the games control.

    Otherwise do we call someone a scrub for getting a sprained ankle in a sprint?

    Seriously?

    Also Sirlin is an ass of the highest degree and my limited interactions with him have given me nothing but a desire to never have to deal with him. His article on the whole Olympic's and intentionally losing thing was interesting though.

    I would not call them a scrub but I also would not trust a stranger on LoL with my good intentions. You start being too nice and avoiding people everytime you think their afk eventually you can get screwed over. As far as I'm concerned we've all dc'd and had to deal with it and that's what keeps the balance. I mean I won't go out of my way to hunt them down when their dc, but I'm still gonna shove my lane up or if it happens mid duel I'm gonna to finish them off. You don't know when they are going to snap back in and suddenly start hitting you.
    If I'm in a sprint and the other guy has a sprained ankle, I'd say tough shit and keep on running because it's going to make up for the time when the teammate I am passing the baton to takes it and then starts running in the opposite direction.

    Aatrox got teased on May 3rd : (
    They've run out of champion ideas. LoL will shut down for good in two weeks' time. Phreak will desperately seek work commentating bum fights, while Nikasaur pursues her one true dream by judging a reality show for cosplay.

    That lead pipe does tons of damage.
    You better watch out in the urban jungle. Phreak starts his builds out with the tire iron.

    I just got Mundo in ARAM again. This is so incredibly unfair to the other team.

    We had a Lux who (unlike many Luxii, including myself) had the patience to save her ult for when it would hit at least 3+ people. I think she picked up three triples and a quad with lazor that game. The other team would say "OH LOOK A MUNDO AT 5% HP DIVE DIVE DIVE" and Lux would bring out the troll mask, shielding me at 1% hp and poppin' dat lazor.

    I will kill people who are disconnected because the enemy team will kill me or my team if they disconnect, and that is the only way to keep balance in the circle of life. Also sometimes people are just messing with you when you think they're disconnected.

    However, people who taunt in chat or spam emotes are the worst.

    Nunu is fun because you run fast.

    I sometimes pretend to DC to lure people in.

    I really feel like Homeguard drowns out all other boot enchantment options.

    Alacrity (the movespeed enchant I think?) is also very good for champs that are easily kited. They're better than Homeguard on Udyr imo.

    But nothing beats how terrifying a bear stance homeguard fed udyr is as you try to knock down his inhib after a close fight amd everyone is low health

    Homeguard certainly has the propensity to create more awe inspiring moments.

    Abloo abloo

    Ranked game

    Flavor banned Lee since we had first pick trying to get Nunu through unopposed by a strong jungler. Unfortunately they banned Nunu. I still got Malphite, but they took Zac, my usual other choice for a flavor ban.

    Zac ganks at 2, first bloods top lane Cho and gets their Riven fed and welp

    Still pulled it out because Malphite's 6 is retarded strong but sheesh

    Up to 7-1 in placement.

    You get much more map awareness and vision range with an unlocked camera. A permanently locked camera is objectively detrimental.

    However, what you can do is just hold down spacebar when you need the camera locked on you during hectic gameplay.

    Only because their implementation sucks. They've positioned the camera in a spot where you can see further towards purple than blue, and positioned the UI in a spot that exacerbates the problem. I have all the vision I need while on blue team, I don't need to unlock the camera, I need to be able to flip it. I get all the map awareness I need on the mini map.

    Anyways, the point isn't to bitch about the camera, I've done that enough on their forums, and after two years of dealing with it, I'm as good at this as I'm going to get until they fix the camera. When I'm curious about is where the camera bias comes from. I'm interested to see where that poll goes.

    Bloodline Champions did some cool work with their camera so no matter which team you're on, your pov is from the bottom team. I thought there were way more maps than there actually were because I was seeing them inverted.

    Thats how Dig works. Their team performance depends almost entirely on Scarra. Its why almost every ban against Dig is something like Diana/Gragas/Other AP Mid.

    People are realizing that the counter to draven is just camping his lane because if he doesn't get ahead early, he has a really rough time late game.

    Dig also has a really really nice comp thats built around choosing advantageous fights and getting the resets for Scarra, and they've played it really well.

    It hurts me to say this because I hate AP Yi more than anything else on this earth

    The amazing secret to Teamfight Yi

    Step 1. Wait for the other team to get kinda low.

    Step 2. Push R.

    Step 3. Push Q.

    Step 4. Repeat Step 3.

    Step 5. Feel awesome. Or like a total douche.
