(+) Yeah! (+)

Yeeees. Just had a match where I literally single-handedly won the game for my team. First blooded the top 30 seconds into the match, and he immediately ragequits. The rest of my team was terrible but it was 5 v 4 so it didn't matter.

Best thing so far for me: Playing as Lulu and squirreling the enemy Alistar after he charged but before he smashed. Also GIANT DOOM POPPY

HOT OFF THE PRESSES (Riot post in General Dicussion)

Good news everyone! Lux is getting mana cost reductions next patch. Making it easier for Lux to take more chances in lane, and play more aggressive. We like that Lux is a hard to play mage with high rewards (seriously, practice Q - E- R combo), so we're trying to make her less punishing.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Making things easier for Lux means making things more difficult for every other mid ever made.

Guaranteed she gets nerfs to her damage in a few patches if these buffs are actually consequential.

Nunu buffs are cool, I think his passive is currently one of the worst in the game. I welcome Shen/Karthus ult nerfs - I don't think Soraka's ult was much of a problem but that's just my opinion. Leblanc stuff sounds cool, keeps with her tricky deceiver theme. Orianna stuff is cool too, I'm glad they're working with her functionality and not her numbers (well not entirely just her numbers). Plus Lux buffs.

I, TOO, LIKE THIS PATCH

And then you get power creep and then the game gets in trouble. Nerfs are more important and necessary than buffs these days.

Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

Also Soraka's ult wasn't too huge a problem but I'm okay with anything that nerfs Soraka.

Soraka nerfs keep her in line with global changes and Soraka in general is a problem.

She's pretty much the only reason this game hasn't reached kill lane meta. Her and Taric, at least, since Taric meets it half-way.

I don't think Soraka's ult was much of a problem but that's just my opinion.

Soraka's ult didn't heal for too much, but it's cooldown was so low that it was always up whenever there was a fight. She doesn't have to choose to use it, she just uses it whenever anyone fights and she can stack assists. Now she'll have an actual choice to make: whether to get some easy assist gold, or to save her ult for a desperate situation.

So much $#^*ing fun to do that as Malph.

Anyways important question. how do % based items stack? I.E. PD and Triforce. Let's say I also have Bezerker's greaves annd my base is 350(No Janna or runes/masteries that increase ms) What would my total be? And how would runes/masteries play into this?

--

attack speed is additive.

If you have 40% from one source and 15% from another source you have a 55% increase on your base attack speed. But only up to a certain rate at which point the extra attack speed ceases to matter.


I could be wrong about all of that, mind you >_>

--
~Ç~ http://img.imgcake.com/AlecTrevylan006/fdshieldpngyn.png Eff_Dee

Bonus AS stacks additively, but the formula to calculate it is a little weird.

http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Attack_speed

However, if you work out the formula for someone, say KogMaw, you see that AS progression is linear.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmzyRzukH7kbdG9ZbkRxeXFPSXdZR2c1ZmIxMWRmbFE

So, every point of AS% is worth as much as the last, up to the cap (2.5 attacks per second).

not so much buffs but making him more usable. they're increasing the projectile speed on his e so it always gets there before your q does if you combo

I've been played with and against a lot of terrible Leblancs recently. I think they're practicing due to the patch preview.

--
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

Terrible how?

I'm just curious, I don't think LeBlanc is difficult at all.

--

Terrible as in...terrible. Very few of them have had positive scores, and while that's not usually a good indicator of play, it kind of is for Leblanc. The worst case was when I went around to gank a Level 3 Veigar my Leblanc was facing. She had over half her health left. Before I'm even close (and she definitely saw me coming), she initiates and dies to him.

--
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

I meant if you were paying attention to them.

Did they suck mechanically? Could they not combo?

Not a fair question to ask since you're more concerned about yourself, I'm sure, I'm just curious.

--

I don't know how to play Leblanc so I wouldn't know if they were comboing well or anything. But considering most of them didn't get very many kills...probably not.

--
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

From the wiki page:

"Attack speed reduction duration is not affected by tenacity. However if attack speed reduction is in one ability with crowd control like Nunu's Ice Blast, then tenacity reduces its duration. So attack speed reduction is reduced by tenacity only along with other crowd control. "


That's really interesting, I've never really thought about how that worked before. Another reason why Nunu rocks as support!

Dude sounds like he can switch between melee or AD carry. If he can do it at-will (say it's his passive) then that could be pretty damn interesting.

From: KamikazePotato | #235

I've been played with and against a lot of terrible Leblancs recently. I think they're practicing due to the patch preview.

Leblanc was one of the free champs this past week, so you've probably been seeing a lot of noobs who have no idea how to play her.

--
"The power of accurate observation is commonly called Black Turtle by those who have not got it."

Yes, but in lane, very few ADs will get Mercs. I said that's another plus for Nunu because he can increase his lanemate's AS and lower the enemy's. For some reason I was under the impression that Nunu's only real support ability was Blood Boil.

I have that with Jungle Cho. I clear very fast, I always burn a flash or get an early kill, I counter jungle, ward enemy buffs and Eat them, farm extremely well, etc

I've never won a ranked game with him. it makes no sense.

Those MF changes make absolutely no goddamn sense at all. Riot's just taking shots in the dark at this point.

Soraka got WRECKED though. Once they decrease the amount of her heals, she's done for.

Jayce is probably the first champion in a long time with a release skin I had to have.
