[League of Legends] Winter Rift is Coming

IMO, champs that have special gank paths they can take to avoid wards and stuff are usually going to be broken if their numbers are high, so it'll be interesting to see what they do since he obviously has some big time problems.
This guy plays very uniquely though, so I'd wait until people get some practice with him before worrying about his winrate numbers. Perhaps we'll discover that he's only good into certain midlane matchups, and really needs to not be first-picked, or that actually he's totally great when played by a practiced player or with a certain build path, etc. Or maybe his numbers do need tuning.
So far he's actually been pretty good in my silver games. Kinda useful to have a dude who just does damage by standing there twiddling his thumbs. But then again, any game that I am in has peel for carries and generally at least one support gank on mid between lvls 3 and 7, so perhaps that's part of what's making him effective.
You can absolutely hit him with skillshots and ground-targeted spells.
Oh, wow, I thought skillshots would reveal stealthed champions, but check out these weird interactions as comprehensively detailed on http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Stealth
Technically Dark Binding doesn't reveal the champion (it just traps them but they stay invisible if they don't break stealth). And Soul Shackles does reveal the champion?? Weird weird weird.
Soul Shackles doesn't "reveal" the champion but you know right where they are always because you can see the shackle end at their model(which is invisible).
Its the same thing as you used to be able to do with Viktor ult (track enemies in bushes/invisible enemies) by following the lightning lines.
My first game, enemy jungler eats my team alive by himself and admits during chat that he is smurfing. They win 35 - 6.
AAARRRRGGGHHHHH
Have the damage also scale via aspd, without actually speeding up the orbs.
Yeah. Teemo also gets a big attack speed boost if he attacks from camoflauge. He and Zed were queued together and kept trying to do cool-guy sick-outplays, but they were really obvious about it and I got a lot of my kills just poking them to death while they waited for me to take their bait.
Wiki claims otherwise with regards to soul shackles (and also says that Morgana Q does *not* reveal invisibility, just, you know, makes a column of purple where the invisible guy is). I couldn't vouch for the accuracy of the site, but it seems pretty well-curated.

alrighty then

I think my favorite Teemo kill was just /dancing on his spot with Sunfire cape on as Garen and waiting him out.

I had a really disheartening loss yesterday too. Enemy comp was bizarro (Teemo, Yi, Kalista, Jinx, Zilean) and I had to face hippity-hoppity Kalista mid as Ahri. I was worried I wouldn't be able to land a skill shot, and all she needs to proc thunderlords is one auto attack (then stupid rend). Right after she chunks me hard and I say "this is going to suck," she accidentally dances into turret range and gives me first blood. From there everything is going great, up 3k gold at 16 minutes and the team is clicking... then Mundo disconnects. Suddenly we have no front line and they have 4 turret destroying attack speed machines. It went downhill very fast.
edit: not to say i haven't benefited from it.
As a not adc main, i view it as a major strength. The fact that any time he backs he could head to another lane and gank is a major plus. It also lets him position safer on the way back to his own lane, plus the attack speed boost.
I don't think you max it first. But I don't know the correct path for any adc other than Ez.
I think on Twitch you go (R >) E > Q > W.

In Silver, Twitch's stealth seems mainly used, during laning phase, to
1. catch the enemies unaware when coming back from b (as in, Twitch went B, and unexpectedly flanks his opponents when he gets back to lane)
2. escape during a protracted gank/2v2/bot lane clusterfuck if not locked down
I do not ever see Twitch ganks on mid, not to say that they couldn't happen. But then again, if I see a Twitch on the enemy team I tend to shut him down so hard he never becomes a thing. He's very vulnerable to an aggressive support. And if the Twitch is on my team, I'm going mid with him, thus negating the stealth benefit.
Looks like he has a high winrate and low playrate in plat+. In my elo he feels weak, but that is subjective and not supported by data. It's possible he has a high-ish winrate because the only people who play Twitch are Twitch enthusiasts, rather than because of any inherent strength in his kit? Hard to say.

The TL/DR is that dynamic queue breaks MMR in favor of teams and also adds additional variance into MMR (IIRC makes games more one sided)
The Taric rework seems to be just around the corner.
I heard the T word. As a wise man once said, "hell, it's about time."

I think with a bit more practice I'd be able to land her root more, too. But I think she's totally ready for me to play her ranked right now.
Do you guys max E or Q? And take E lvl 1, usually?
definitely Q at 1, it does more damage, has a shorter cd, and the root duration at rank 1 of E is pitiful
I'm assuming you max q as well but I don't really play her
You could just play Evelynn
For real, though, you can make basically anything work unless it's something like AP Draven that just doesn't scale at all.

A friend of mine used to do that. It was highly dependent on starting red and getting first blood mid with an invisible gank
