Honestly, I love everything in the new kit but the Q, which is a fantastic idea but seems super-easy to get screwed out of in the ordinary course of events.

The spotlight mentions using his W for the slow to ensure getting the Q knockup off.
Anyone care to report on the reliability of this combo?

Yeah, the biggest problem with his ult is that walls/obstacles stop it. And I mean like if you brush one. If a pebble from a wall comes into contact with you while you ult, you will stop dead. And because unlike Malphites ultimate it isn't target-able, if you aren't faced in the perfect direction when you do it, or you accidentally click the button too soon you could just waste it running into a wall.

azir has progressed from good to really really absurd with those bugfixes adn the attack speed
long live biirdman
his scaling is absolutely ridiculous - he is basically useless early then suddenly flips over to doing 1.3 700 damage man stabs per second. the key on him is getting FLAT AP as quickly as possible; his base man damage is very low at low levels (the men scale off level not skill rank, so you just level q then e then w last) and thus the flat ap gives you the biggest damage for your buck over early mpen etc. you want that early deathcap. dont get nashors - just get a stinger. run a lot of cdr in runes to avoid having to buy low ap cdr items, or grab a morellonomicon. rylais good
most of your damage is from charge +1-2 stabs, so flat ap is great. you can upgrade the stinger later
jungling him avoids the early "getting rekt" phase
very useful trick - place 2 guys, then q, then place a w behind you before engaging when it repops - you can e back to it later

On the one hand, yes.
On the other hand, there are about a zillion things that interrupt channels floating around at the moment. I agree with you, but putting a channeled combo-element on someone in League of Legends in 2014 is... bold.

I'm going to need you to stop posting useful Azir information this is counter-productive to my steamroll plans.
For people asking about Rammus, this game got my most used build and build order + runes. Ignore my masteries since they are propably crap since I never bothered to find out which ones are good.

Azir's numbers have been insane since launch, but at the same time, he does have a very high skill cap. Getting your soldiers in range of enemy champions - especially those with high mobility - for consistent attacks can be fairly difficult once they understand the limited range the soldiers have. They're very similar to Lucian's Q in that to deal damage beyond their auto range (which I think is around 400ish), they need a target between them and their actual target (since their total damage range is higher than the auto range).
Champs like Zed, Renekton, and others with double dashs, or like Gangplank with points into E can easily outmanoeuvre a lot of Azir's damage just by juking the soldiers.

So nashor's is worth getting on him more than an item that gives lots of AP?
Is athene's worth getting or is morello's just better?

He can have mana issues, so Athene's isn't terrible, but at the same time, Morello gives you more AP, the same CDR, and the GW passive.
The thing I like about Athene's is it gives you enough mana to spam W and drag an army around with Q. No idea how efficient that is I just like doing it
Now only Heimer, Karma, and Shaco in the "Not-yet-bought" 3150 category.
My first game with him I went top, went 16/4 which turned into 16/15 because literally everyone else on the other team was getting fed off a terrible... everyone.
I finished the game with 3x the next highest "damage done to champions" on my team.

i get nashors last as i sell the jungle item if i have it - jungle item -> large rod -> stinger -> dcap
i get the stinger early because it gets him to the nice short snappy autoattack speed that you want while also serving the spot of a slightly pricy 10% cdr slot
then you can get on with getting the ap to murder people
Because the code base is a crime against machines. Riot has enough money now to completely redevelop the game from the ground up - which they should do - but they won't because time/resources/payoff/etc.
At least we know the solution to the future AI Apocalypse: pack the League client as a virus and upload it into their system.
As a locked camera player, absolutely nothing about Riot's codebase surprises me. With how easy it should be to fix the camera for us, the fact that they haven't implies the code is Ghostbusters bad.
It's ALL minions. THe base class is Minion. Need a Champ? start with base class minion. Need Terrain? Base class minion.
It's not surprising because when Riot bought this engine, they did it as cheaply as possible. Who knew it would grow into the biggest game in the world. I mean, maybe they could have hired Dustin Browder, but that would be putting themselves behind the 8ball.
I suspect that the SR "refresh" removes a lot of minionitis. Hopefully it brings us closer to a map builder, I've heard the vhoice of not releasing a mapeditor is because they didn't want to expose the horrors that lurk in the engine.
And I'm pretty sure, that the base engine, is in C++.

They didnt put a ton of effort into the skin textures
but DAMN
those particle effects look GOOD
do you mean the slow on his e? w is his old shield thing. either way, no it isnt reliable
now, if they're already stunned, yeh.
His ult is underwhelming, malphites, but worse.

Yeah would have done that if not for Morg bindings being pritty good to stop a Rammus.

How does this keep happening.
because everything in the league engine has to be either a minion or a building or a champion
At what point in building your game is it even possible to restrict yourself to only 3 possible object classes for eternity.
Especially when you know that in the game you will probably want to, like, have players do stuff.

What in the actual fuck
the W-Q combo is really strong now though, you know, the combo where you W away and then you give yourself an AS buff? i think that'll go a long way
