    Did you know the Riot API gives you easy access to stats like BOTLANE: cs difference per minute, minute 1-10?

    I mean, I guess I sort of knew that because of sites like carry.gg. But...this is really worth checking out, even if (maybe especially if, given the 500 requests/10 minute limitation) you just want to track your own stats. You get really clear and parse-able JSON; totally worth looking at.

    My dev challenge project so far has:
    1. a script automatically downloading 500 matches/10 mintues
    2. a shell of a website
    3. a solid plan for what comes next! I'm psyched. Will share more with the thread as the project progresses.

    Dyslexia strikes again! I've been reading/saying MaLAZhar this whole time when it is in fact MALZAhar

    Sev: Your gameplay is the most heavily yomi based around. Usually you look for characters that allow you to force guessing situations for big dmg. Even if the guess is mathematically nowhere near in your favor lol. You're happiest when you have either a 50/50, 33/33/33 or even a 75/25 situation to go crazy with. And you will take big risks to force those situations to come up.

    Alright, back to more provisionals!

    Hopefully URF draws away a lot of the undesirables from solo queue.

    Or maybe leaves it full of them...

    So I haven't had chance to play URF mode yet. And by the sounds of things I should be kinda grateful!
    So in general, its not as great as riot are making it out to be?

    E: Holy shit @spectrum those are epic xD

    it's simply that there is 0 nuance to the mode, just mash buttons as fast as you can and hope the other guy is worse at mashing buttons

    play it at least once for the icon

    Goddamn, there's an icon? You tricky bastards, Riot!

    Also, I have no shame in admitting that I haven't heard Haddaway in years; I was fairly amused and listened to the whole song.

    If Tryndamere's E gets +100% of his AP, how bad of an idea would it be to build Luden's Echo on him as a substitute for boots. It would add to his heal, his E, and give MS. Luden's plus Shiv sounds hilarious.

    +% movement speed is strictly better in URF. (never build boots)

    In urf it's a great idea especially since you will be using e more than you will actually be using non-ability movement. On a normal game it's a terrible idea.

    interesting that two ultra mobile champions are so awful. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of LB/kassadins are teleporting on top of people for damage and getting rocked, making it solely a player issue.

    i think it also makes sense that their kit being balanced around their hypermobility doesn't help them in a mode where everyone is hypermobile.

  • GoumindongGoumindong Registered User regular
    It's more that there are fewer down times on enemy abilities for them to go in. Ok so lux clears a wave with e and this means half her kit is on CD. If she uses a q on anyone she is out of options. But now lux can use e and q and by the time LB thinks "ohh opening" they're off cd again.

    Now repeat with galio and morgana having perman shields and IWD having perma jump.

    How does the game handle multiple DC's like that? It just ends the match after so many people DC?

    On another note, do you guys think that Assassin-type junglers like Rengar are even less relevant in the tank/cinderhulk meta?

    The only time a match "cancels" is when it's a custom game and all participants leave.
    Otherwise, too bad, so sad; the game continues until one side wins, even if by minions.
    (The only other real option to cancel a game is if servers go down for maintenance, but they usually put out a warning of when no more games can be started to avoid that.)

    Yeah and who builds that in URF

  • KhavallKhavall British ColumbiaRegistered User regular
    Guys once you get rank 2 of Mundo's ult it can basically be on all but 3 seconds.

    He's constantly regenerating 60% of his total health.


    I soloed baron today and ended with full health. I took a Karthus ult too

  • JookieJookie Registered User regular
    Once you get Mundo's ult it can basically be on all but three seconds.

    The only thing ranking it up does is affect how much health it heals (for now). I think that a while ago it used to scale with level but they changed it the last time he was popular.

    butts
  • KhavallKhavall British ColumbiaRegistered User regular
    Ok so at level 6 then you basically have infinite health minus burst.

    And your q does %health. And with SV you really have infinite health.

    Guys ban Mundo.

    The thing people are forgetting with all these unkillable builds is that you don't need to be slain for you to lose the game

    In fact the enemy doesn't ever have to engage you at all in URF mode
