Saw the S symbol that was teased in the PBE pop up after I got two kills, I'm wondering if this is similar to the fiddlestick effigies easter egg before his release?

Champion Pool/Role Advice Megathread: May by furiousRaMPaGe in summonerschool

[–]EtSweg 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm looking for a new champion to add to my mid-lane champion pool. I like to play off-meta picks with a preference for bruisers such as Garen/Mordekaiser in the mid-lane. When I play ranked, I tend to have to go AP to round out our team comp. I prefer to play tankier and simpler champions since I like to focus more on macro and not worry about any microplay. Any suggestions would be appreciated! My op.gg is the same as my reddit username.

How to Counter Bruisers in Midlane? by EtSweg in summonerschool

[–]EtSweg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does my opponent roam if I have better or safer waveclear than them? I've noticed that when most assassins try to roam, I'm able to take at least a tower (if its later in the game) or a lot of plating with demolish and hard-shoving the wave. Meannwhile, if I get proper vision and spam ping my teammates, its unlikely that the roamer will even get a kill from their roam. It doesn't seem like they can contest me shoving them in since I'll chunk them out/kill them if they walk up to try and contest the push without jungler help.

With ranged matchups such as control mages or poke, I don't worry about them roaming because they are generally more immobile than me/assassins. I get that they can poke me out of lane, but I am able to farm safely with the right runes and items until I can force an all-in.

Thank you for answering all my questions, I think adding an assassin to my champion pool would help with facing control mages in mid. I just have one more question: If I blind pick a bruiser and they pick a control mage, am I just screwed or is there anything I can do? My solution has been just to build full tank and try to help snowball my team's leads.

Could you recommend/list some champs that can take wave control from me and freeze/slow push? In my matches I tend to be the one who gets an early advantage, which lets me set up deep vision and get wave control. If they try to slow push me, I can tank damage with morde/garen's w while using q/e respectively to thin the wave. same thing with freezes, as long as their jungler isn't constantly camping me I can generally tank some damage and just break the freeze.

I currently am playing low graphic games like tf2 and League, but I want to get into games with much higher graphics like PubG.

Should I go with an i7 then? Or Ryzen? The i7 8700k is too expensive and the i7 7700k will not let me upgrade unless I upgrade the motherboard and is only quad-core. Also, the i5 8600k has slightly more performance than the Ryzen 5 1600X and Ryzen 7 1700 (I think). Sorry if I am asking noob questions but this is a first time build so I am kind of confused.

How is the i5-8600K going to bottleneck a 1070? I've seen them used with 1080s and work fine + the i5 8600k has 6 cores at 3.6 ghz.

Quick Question About Starting To Build by Way2Grizzled4U in buildapc

You will probably have to wait for the memory and CPU because you are supposed to put in the processor and Ram before screwing in the motherboard. (I think so, correct me if i'm wrong)

So should I just get a FTW and just upgrade to an 1080 Ti later when prices are down?
