    I saw an olaf go 3v1 with a poppy, sivir, and morgana (I think it was morgana, can't quite remember) and killed poppy and morgana and sent sivir running.

    It was disgusting.

    Oh, I think the poppy started at halfish health.

    So, you seem to have a few valid complaints, and a few, "OMG, no one should ever escape my ganks ever." Summoner skills can be annoying as piss sometimes (I hate ignite most personally), but the game doesn't really work without them. Otherwise you run into a lot of situations where being skimmed by a slow is an instant death, and that's the worst thing ever.

    It's not so much summoner spells alone, it's summoner spells in unison with heals and/or Janna/Shen shields.

    If you run up against a heal team with all Cleanse and Ghost, they won't die. Ever. Cleanse/Ghost and Cleanse/Flash, in general, are just a really unfair combo IMO. I think people should be limited to only one defensive summoner spell (and I suppose one offensive summoner spell and one utility summoner spell).

    If they added/tweaked a few summoner spells, having 1 Offensive and 1 Utility/Defense (or maybe even three) would be a fantastic way to do it. That is a great idear. Done well, it ought to make character customization even more dynamic and balance things proportionately. Ideally.

    I'd say the easier fix is to change a couple metagame elements. Make Ex Call better (on hit passive to be specific), make an AP Ex Call, and make Warwick's and Malzahar's ults lock out summoner spells for their duration. Ideally, wrap up by having an anti-buff / debuff hero.

    Ghost / Cleanse isn't inherently unreasonable.

    just had the most nutso game
    74 minutes long. We were ALL sporting the best gear we could get for our chars. All turrets destroyed, all inhibitors destroyed for at least 20 minutes. Neither of us could make a decent push at each other.

    We ended up losing, I would say that is because their team had 5 while we had 4. We had a real good Ryze dip out on us because the game was going too long. This happened when we were like level 12.

    Also, I played AP shaco that game and loved it. Jack in the Box is hilarious and exploding clones are hilarious. Anyone know a good build? I was kinda winging it.

    So I've been out of the loop. What's Taric's new ult?

    He used to have a sweet aoe heal on his ult. Now it just heals him (with a horrible coefficient) and adds token autoattack damage to him and his allies. It also drains progressively stacking amounts of mana while you have it on, thus destroying your pool. It's pretty horrible.

    Any of those but Nasus? Nasus to me seems pretty boring when his ult his down, but obviously, if you pull off his ult in a team fight without getting CC'd to death, you do become destroyer of worlds.

    Personally, of those, I'd say either rammus, morgana, and janna are the most fun.

    Hi, I'm playing Evelynn. I know you asked me not to in pre-game chat, but I'm doing it anyway. Oh look, 20 minutes in, their Cho'Gath has Oracle's. Hey guys, can you please focus Cho'Gath first? I can't attack until you do.

    Oh look, I'm not engaging. Stop trying to nuke their dps guys, we need to kill Cho'Gath to get that Oracle's off him. WTF guys, how can you lose in a 4v5?

    God, we lost because our mid is terrible, even though he kept up with Teemo just fine. GOD GUYS YOU ARE SO BAD.

    New Champs practice game: I pick Olaf, someone drops, puts us back into the lobby. Someone else joins, game starts, someone who wasn't the new guy takes Olaf within .5 seconds of starting champ selection.

    I pick Soraka. New champs, right? I might as well learn a healer. I got okay, I was nothing special as a healer but I wasn't feeding.

    Olaf goes mid solo, proceeds to feed, and bashes everyone on the team for being the "worst" of their each respective champ.

    NEW GAH-DAMN CHAMP PRACTICE. YOU EVEN WERE THE ONE TO CREATE IT, AND YOU NAMED IT, YOU ****.

    I had like, a streak of a month without a ****in face**** ****in ****ing his mouth off. And he ruined it.

    So, what is kiteing?

    From Urban Dictionary:

    Basicaly a hit-and-run technique commonly used in (but not limited to) MMORPG games (attacking monster then running, then attacking again.)

    Also:

    To fly a kite with ur bestest friend

    basically if you have a way to hurt the guy at range without him being able to close the distance to hit you (usually a ranged attack, but maybe you just applied a damage over time or something) and you just kinda run away from them, hitting them whenever you can while maintaining distance

    It is a nice way to deal with tanky fat dudes and whatnot

    Was she rocking a Sheen effect? And was it a normal hit or a crit? A cursory look at some guides doesn't have anyone saying it works that way but a crit+takedown+sheen regular attack could look pretty close to that amount I suppose.

    Sheen, yes, but nothing else in the way of attack damage. She had a Sunfire Cape and Boots and Sheen. And it wasn't a crit.
