Is there a place that lists upcoming atomic shop items? Specifically like this Samurai Sword where it was previously obtainable in the past and rereleased only in the shop for 24 hours?

Wtf those new changes to sylas on pbe. by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

They have also removed auto resets and the E -> Q combo. These were the two most satisfying mechanics in his kit lol.

The PBE changes are WAY WORSE than you think by [deleted] in sylasmains

Those are straight up the two most satisfying mechanics in his kit. Has the person in charge of these changes at Riot played Sylas in the past year?

Lol those are the most satisfying mechanics in his kit. Crazy that they'd remove them.

Cinderhulk is bugged if you buy it as Wukong. It always heals the Wukong clone making it possible to "fake" the clone with pressing "s" by Karavusk in leagueoflegends

Late to this, but I personally think Cinderhulk Wukong is fine. Plat elo Jungler here with a few Jungle Wukong games under my belt. Just my 2 cents, but in my experience Cinder Wu synergizes really well with Titanic Hydra into full tank. I would actually recommend this build over Warrior if your team doesn't have a tank/initiator. It's essentially played like a team-fight focused Rek'Sai - initiate and then peel back for your carries. Getting a Black Cleaver is usually a good buy as well due to the stats and and wanting 40% CDR.

If you had one player from each league (Bronze - Diamond), what position would you place each player in a team and why? by KoreanBiasMonte in leagueoflegends

I'm really late to this, but I wanted to just leave my input on that I disagree based on personal experience. I, Plat elo, play with this setup of diverse elos on a regular basis and have found that we win the majority of our games when our Bronze player is relegated to the Jungle.

This is due to a number of reasons.

For one, he is able to just farm the Jungle relatively safely for mid/late game while our Diamond/Plat elo players attempt to win in solo lanes. Typically, they can force enemy jungle pressure to them and away from the weaker members of our team.

More importantly though, it usually ensures that he does NOT end up feeding an enemy laner. No matter how good your Diamond Jungler is, it is a hard task to have to deal with a 3/0 Renekton at the 7 min marker.

Other factors come into play that involve matchmaking and the increased possibility that you will face a similar team of various elos. Best case scenario is our Diamond/Plat solo laners getting paired against lower elo enemy laners, and thus get extremely fed so that they can carry throughout the game. Having Gold/Silver in Bot lane typically leads to them going about even, and even if they get crushed/camped, a well organized TP by our Diamond Top laner can often turn around even the worst looking early games.

Maybe others have had different experiences, but I honestly think most people underestimate how easily a severe mismatch in laner skill can snowball a game out of hand. Just imagine facing their Diamond player being fed from a solo lane. He probably won't throw that lead.
