    We at Enemy would like to apologize to our fans for our performance against Fusion today. We always want to show you the best games and give our fans the wins that they want. We are very sorry for our poor showing and promise to improve for the Challenger Series. Looking forward, we will make the changes necessary to become the top Challenger team for the next split. We owe it to you to be the best that we can be and we will not be satisfied with our results until we are a top North American team. The Black Monster Cup Winter and NACL are just around the corner and we will do our best to win those tournaments.
    Next, I want to say good luck to Fusion for the rest of the tournament. We hope you make it in to the LCS! Make our games the closest that you have in Expansion. We were disappointed that we had to play you so soon in Expansion because we respect your players and your management so much. Unfortunately only one team could move forward and the best team on that day did. You will always have a friend in us.
    I hope that you, our fans, are not too disappointed by these results. This team was put together for the Challenger Series right before the Expansion Tournament qualifier rules were announced. We as a team did not have time to become the strong unit we needed to be to win. But, we have the right coaching infrastructure in place to improve the team and become stronger together. Thank you for your continued support and be sure to follow @Enemy_esports for all the team news.

    Bot lane can do Krugolems for a fast level two advantage once again

    its like this jungle update just wanted to fit every single mistake possible into one preseason patch.

    Also, Fiora does not jungle well at all now. I mean, she was always a gimmicky choice but...

    Nunu and Warwick seem to be the two dominant junglers ATM

    anyone who has sustain and is effective with small amounts of gold will also do well

    but any patch where you can say "the best champions to play are Warwick and Nunu" is basically a war crime.

    I thought Fiora jungled okay when I tried her. Time your W correctly and she doesn't take that much damage from creeps, pick up Devourer and Skirmisher's for crazy late game damage.

    Then again, I've been doing pretty terribly in the new jungle so my opinion's probably worthless. I've had the most success with Diana so far.

  • PotatoNinjaPotatoNinja Fake Gamer Goat Registered User regular
    Fiora might have OK clear, but there's no gold to be had in the new jungle, and Fiora isn't a champion that does very well with no income.

    Funny all these complaints about warwick when pantheon can basically do the same thing. Warrior enchant->bruta->LW and you can instagib pretty much anyone with your combo.

    Did I mention he can solo dragon at level 3 thanks to his passive?

    Who's the real OP this preseason

  • PolaritiePolaritie Sleepy Registered User regular
    Warwick's never stops scaling, mainly.

    But yeah, being able to basically double Brutalizer with Warrior is insanely good for some champions. I need to try jungle Riven with that.

    Warwick's rocking about a 57% win rate right now. And 44 of the top 50 win rates by champ combo involve Warwick. At least it's only preseason, heh.

    Because R>Smite>Q instagibs squishies and hammers tanks. Anyone who lives is low enough for blood scent to keep you on them as your autoattacks finish things.

    Pantheon's combo hurts, but it doesn't suppress and isn't dealing true damage.

    Also, Warwick basically takes one pot while getting blue and then never backs until he wants to, because even THIS jungle can't outdamage his sustain.

    He's so good that swag lord Darien can build Manamune on him and still dominate.

    WW can do it while building stupid because he's WW, but the weird power spike that junglers get with the enchants is stupid.

    Super weak until they get the enchant, then there's a huge powerspike because the item is way more gold efficient than anything else in the game, then a fairly rapid fall because there's no gold for junglers anymore.

    I banner of commanded a siege minion while we had baron

    a 30% health velkoz on the other team died trying to kill it (to be clear, he fought the siege minion 1v1 and lost)

    Why are people taking Kalista top? Is that a thing? I had someone do it in ranked last night. Then they didn't know how to use the soul pact. Once I finally managed to explain it (10 minutes in) it resulted in some of the worst ults ever. I'd be be about to murder some fools as Diana jungle and Kalista would come up behind me and and ult me while I was in mid ult. Oy.

    I think my best Banner of Command so far was one that got two bottom turrets and a inhibitor because they ignored it while we were doing Baron.

    I have stopped playing WW in normals. I feel guilty whenever I do. Between the scaling on devourer and his Q scaling the true damage he puts out is crazy. I had a game 11-0 where every time ult was up I just went and deleted someone and there was nothing they could do about it.

    So people were talking about how terrible Shaco is.

    And don't get me wrong, Shaco is Hitler.

    But OP...I want to say earl
    Nunu and Warwick seem to be the two dominant junglers ATM

    anyone who has sustain and is effective with small amounts of gold will also do well

    but any patch where you can say "the best champions to play are Warwick and Nunu" is basically a war crime.

    So I was like, "Maybe I should download League again to try out the new everything"

    Now I'm NOT.

    Nunu is worse than Shaco.

    And being worse than Shaco should be impossible, because on a scale of 1 to 10, Shaco is THE WORST.

    Jungle Nunu is dividing by zero.

    If memory serves, Nunu can only speed up a minion with blood boil. It won't receive any attack speed bonuses from bloodboil.

    So, did a game of jungle aatrox and wasn't impressed. could be because it was my first game ever with him, but i didn't do to well. Did less damage than the braun bottom and got blown up in seconds in ebvery team fight. Second game I took him top and just farmed by balls off because I never had to leave lane because of his W. Man once this guy get BotRK you can man fight almost anyone. Did the 2nd most damage behind Kalista. Not too bad, don't know why I have never seen him not even once since I picked up leeg again a month or two ago.

    Nope! It definitely gives them the attack speed too, it's pretty gross.

    Zac also does well in the current jungle imo. I do Red (smite it) > Kruggs > Gromp (smite this too) > Blue and its a pretty comfortable clear. His passive lets him heal a ton and if you start W then you can just spam the crap outta it once you're 3.

    So Support Nunu with Smite kinda works for those early golems/Dragon. Also Elixir of Ruin and Banner of Command for hilarious results.

    Edit: Early "Krugs", sorry.

    I tried Yi jungle last night some. Ganked twice because opponents were pushed to our turret with low enough life alpha strike one shotted them. Other than that I farmed jungle/lanes when laners were backing. Late game came out of the jungle and carried us to a 45 minute victory even though as a team we were 15 kills behind the other team.

    My team was whining about surrendering then I joined a team fight and got a quadra. Shortly after the biggest whiner says "We might be able to win this"

    You're thinking Lulu shield, which gives pix but does not shield.
