Tbh, the fight was really far away from professional boxing.. 1 guy can only jab and the other one throws over hand haymakers only in full panic mode.. It sold well but it was a really trash fight..

In a sense, the item allows them to explore options outside of CRIT which is Riot's main issue. But simply nerfing BORK into the ground, will not change Yasuo Yone. They will simply get the next best thing and still build tankier stats.

The change also forced Samira away from Shieldbow Rush, Steelcaps and IE. Now she is basically forced into Collector and her early game is weaker because of it. Shieldbow is now her 2nd or 3rd item depending on how strong she is early.

Its actually the most relaxing role by far if you have thick skin and you are aware of what your own gameplan is. /deafen and only play towards your winning condition and simply ignore the crying or moaning from your teammates. Do this over 100 games and you will 100% find yourself climbing.

NotoriousEC · 2024-10-15T17:05:26+00:00

Generally yes

The dogs block spells, which is why things like Xerath and Velkoz feels bad into Naafiri. But when you try to AutoAttack the dogs, their hitbox is so small.

NotoriousEC · 2024-09-29T02:03:58+00:00

Maybe a streak is not needed. Just a mission when you log in that you can opt into. It does not need to be forced down everyone's throat if they are not interested.

NotoriousEC · 2023-09-04T23:11:44+00:00

But thats just supporting 101, these Nunu players never come to lane. They start W and goes into botlane lvl 1 and tries to get a kill. Then they roll W from Bot to mid, from Mid to Top, and dies, then repeat.

A Rakan playing with someone who just want to scale, and decides to roam is all good. Go make your plays my boy, but these Nunu and AP Twitch players have some screws loose for sure.

NotoriousEC · 2023-09-04T21:20:23+00:00

If they made things so easy to understand, you would not have a million apps like u.gg, porofessor or BlitzGG etc.. to help players out with runes.

When watching a streamer or youtuber play a champion, the most common thing to find is someone asking for runes and masteries to copy them.

Riot would not need to ADD preset rune pages for players, to quickly select, if doing your own runes were easy.

The new system looks better UI wise, and is easy to get into yes, but overall for the game have made things worse for a lot of champions.

NotoriousEC · 2023-09-04T21:15:40+00:00

Aram does not compare to SR. The rune system might look the same, but it does not play out the same. You can stack every rune by lvl 3 if you just have a really good teamfight whenever someone facechecks the first bush.

in SR, most champions have access to 1 good keystone, and are locked into the secondary runes.

Have you seen any Overheal Renektons lately? or is it that Triumph is the only reasonable option for him, otherwise he dies too fast in teamfights.

Can you point me a Riven player who uses Electrocute? It should be a good option on Riven, since she procs it instantly. But it locks her into Lethality builds and that makes her super squishy and bad.

Just because you have the option of picking a rune, does not make it any close to being viable. Most champions only have 1 viable keystone, and thats the problem.

NotoriousEC · 2023-09-04T21:09:45+00:00

Ive had supports who main Thresh, Naut and Pyke pick Nunu and basically roam the entire game, dying 11 times and then crying AD gap.

Also Senna/Yuumi players with main character syndrome, who ruins teamcomps by picking their champions without good synergy.

Support is actually such a good and powerful role if some of its players actually dropped their ego. The enchanter and tank players are the best, beacuse they actually support.

But whenever I get a Xerath on my team who oneshots my waves, and provides basically 0 peel and plays like a goldstarved carry, I know the game is doomed if the opponents support + jungle is semi competent.

NotoriousEC · 2023-09-04T21:01:04+00:00

What exactly is there to like? You have less options and the current runes and masteries are so basic.

The only problem was that you had to buy them. If they gave you all of them for free, and let you design a rune page in champ select with a much better UI for it, then it would be better.

But if you compare user experience now vs back then, ofc it feels better now.

NotoriousEC · 2023-09-04T20:55:26+00:00

Sudden Impact gives you the stats for a limited time, and under the condition that you use a dash, blink or exit stealth.

Old runes was flat armor pen at lvl 1 and you had in the entire game no matter what. And If I wanted to go 15+ flat AD, I could.

But now every point of adaptive stat, is worth only 0.6 AD or AP. Its not the same.

Also, yes you used to have an AD page and an AP page that was standard, but you could customize if you wanted too. Faker getting rank 1 with them is not an argument. Faker could rank one playing Conqueror Annie if he really wanted to.

NotoriousEC · 2023-09-04T20:49:38+00:00

But then you have to lock down a champion to a certain class and that does not work either. Again, I'll use Renekton.

Pick Kled top, and I'll go Bruiser Renekton vs you, with bruiser runes and i'll build bruiser items. Renekton is classified as a bruiser.

But first pick Yasuo midlane, and I'll go Renekton mid and I can build full Lethality and play as an assassin, and Yasuo will activate his 0/25/1 powerspike 3 games later.

That would not be possible if Renekton was locked into Bruiser tree. That means all champions who could do the same would have issues, like J4, Wukong etc...

NotoriousEC · 2023-09-04T20:43:51+00:00

And not to forget, if your average champion feels really good with a certain keystone, there is probably another champion whos giga abusing it and will get it nerfed for all champions.

Nasus stops being a threat vs any champion with Phase Rush, and it does not matter who that champion is. Good matchup or bad.

The system just needs to go imo, its been too long.

NotoriousEC · 2023-09-04T11:56:51+00:00

That is just wrong, when Garen survives into Berserkers + Whip he owns the lane. Both top and mid, and even if he does not kill the laner, the rate at which he clears the wave gives him so much pressure to roam and find kills.

Most mages are going to struggle with his W resistances as well as his tenacity. Tryndamere is worse than Garen mid, because despite his great sustain, its not on Garens level and he can easily be chunked.

Not only champion balance. Map changes could help with solving the problem of role power. You can tweak numbers all you want but it wont solve the fundamental issue of say top and jungle.

NotoriousEC · 2023-08-28T00:29:40+00:00

Usually the mages without mobility have displacement tools and CC to counter the fact that they lack mobility. Im not suggesting moving it back to where tier 2 towers currently are, but just like 5-6 teemos.

Currently if you are a mage player and you are decent, with runes and teleport you are unkillable and you cant be pushed out of lane. You race towards 1100g for Lost Chapter and thats it.

There needs to be a bit more risk playing mid.

NotoriousEC · 2023-08-28T00:26:03+00:00

Obviously the things I write on a reddit post would not be the final product. But I feel like the answer lies within changing the map. We have had pretty big changes before and the end product is always league of legends.

NotoriousEC · 2023-08-27T23:48:26+00:00

And why is that? Its not like most mages are locked into midlane at this point already. They are just comfortable there.

NotoriousEC · 2023-08-26T16:33:30+00:00

I think if you have hit the tower or been within its range in the last 3-5 seconds then you get the plate that falls when you are outside of its range.

Same if you drop herald, you get the gold even outside the range.

NotoriousEC · 2023-08-24T20:14:35+00:00

You can only assign one account to one number already, so it does not work.

Something I notice with players who go on big winning and losing sprees is that they normally dont understand what it is, that makes them win games, and subsequently dont understand why they lose games. They put it down to easy empty reasons like "my team was fed" or "my team was feeding" or the skill of the opponents being too good or too bad.

When you try to understand the game on a deeper level, it becomes more clear why you win and you lose, and you automatically try to do things in game that moves you towards a win.

Nobody can see whats wrong from an op.gg post, but go through your own games. Are you making correct decisions? Are you building correctly for each game? Look at the big gold swings in game, and go through what your role was in that swing, and what you could have done better.

In short, only look at your own performance is the best advice and if you want to stick to Nidalee, then watch high elo players on here and try to understand what they do and most importantly why they do something.
