League Of Legends

I do like that it opens combos that wouldn't normally work. Voli support, ap carry bot? etc etc etc all day long. The meta was stale and this is pretty nice to shake it up.

5sivirs vs 5 sorakas is hilarious. I was 2v1'ing 2 rakas in top lane who both had targons. Ez win

I had one with 5 cho'gaths and we were against 5 Leonas. 5 Cho'gaths is fun but the only problem with all for one is you end up getting lots of people on your team who have no clue how to play the champion you get. We ended up getting rocked by the Leonas late game just because it was permanent cc until we all died (the duo I laned against bottom were both building AD, one a hydra the other a bork, and one of the top leonas built AP with lich bane). Good times seeing 5 giant monsters chain stunning some poor girl tho. With good timing and maybe a little cdr you could probably keep someone airborne permanently until they die (for a while we were killing with 4-6 hits but towards the end it would've taken 15+ to dent their tankiness).

5 zeds vs 5 ziggs had to be the most annoying one i've played so far but we crushed the ziggs and one of our zeds got a penta after we lost a 4v5 but got them all super low.

Ziggs will pretty much crumple to any melee or AD team eventually. He just doesn't have the tools by himself to teamfight.

We won Ziggs vs Shen. Satchel Charge > Stand United.

This new champion..... holy. shit.

[Passive] Way of the Wanderer

Resolve: Moving grants Yasuo Flow, which is tracked on his resource bar -- moving faster grants more Flow. At maximum Flow, damage from a champion or monster grants him a shield for 2 seconds.
Intent: Yasuo's Critical Strike chance is doubled.

[ Q ] Steel Tempest
Thrusts forward, dealing 10/30/50/70/90 (+1*AD) physical damage.
On hit, Steel Tempest grants a stack of Gathering Storm for 10 seconds. At 2 stacks, Steel Tempest fires a whirlwind that knocks Airborne.
Steel Tempest is treated as a basic attack: It can critically strike, applies on-hit effects, and its cooldown and cast time are reduced by attack speed.
If cast while dashing, Steel Tempest will strike as a circle.
Range: 475
Cooldown: 6/5.5/5/4.5/4

[ W ] Wind Wall
Passive: Dashing builds an extra 4/8/12/16/20% of your resource bar.

Cooldown: 26/24/22/20/18

[ E ] Sweeping Blade
Dashes through target enemy, dealing 70/90/110/130/150 (+1*AP) magic damage. Each cast increases your next dash's damage by 25%, up to 100%.

If cast while dashing, Steel Tempest will strike as a circle.
Range: 0
Cooldown: 0.5/0.4/0.3/0.2/0.1

[ R ] Last Breath

For 15 seconds, Yasuo gains 50/50/50% Bonus Armor Penetration -- this reduces armor from items, buffs, runes and masteries.
Range: 0
Cooldown: 80/55/30

All that has changed and it was talked about two pages ago

All of what has been changed? Yasuo's entire kit? The absurdity that is his Q?

Also, does anyone know how Yasuo's passive shield scales? Is it just a flat amount per level or does it have an insane ratio like his other stuff?

Yasou is a fun champ, but I don't think he'll be OP. His base stats are really shitty.

His Q has really low base damage, a very small and narrow range. Sure it scales well, but you're gonna be meh early game.

Any adcs in bronze/silver want to duo? I main support and am currently in bronze 2. I feel that my current skill level should land me in silver 1-2 and that I could eventually grind that out, but bronze games as a support are very frustrating.

League name: Gadrel Amon

I'm sure I'll grab Yasuo when he comes out, everything about him screams at my thematically and gameplay-wise, but he has no sustain, his harass requires him to go in (with no escape), and his all-in looks basically like his harass + his ult. His Wind Wall is fucking amazing though.

Currently on the PBE his passive is that Flow/Double crit one, people were dumb and read mined data instead of waiting 30 minutes for the PBE to come up.

Huh? His escape has like a .5 second Cooldown, the only downside is it's targetting so you better hope there are creeps nearby! Also, his passive gives a shield, so that's kinda sustain-y. He does look pretty awesome though, lotta mobility. His Ult seems really weird though because you have to stack your Q up before you can R? High Skill cap (micro) it seems.

Lux needs to get kicked to the bench alongside Teemo and Karthus on All for One. That's not even vaguely amusing to play against.

My favorite part is watching the best laid plans fall apart after selection.

"Dude, 5 Zileans! The bombs! Rezzing like Jesus himself! It'll be awesome."

"Oh fuck, 5 Garens? FF at 20."

Can't get people to stop picking awful, awful characters.

yea playing against lux on one for all is super lame

Playing against zyra can be pretty lame too. Was in one last night enemy team had zyra and we were riven (luckily). Were pushing their shit in until we got to the inhib towers. Those ults, roots and plants made the game take forever from there on. We eventually won but it was like a 60 minute game.

Yeah i'm basically done with this mode since I don't have 5 people to queue with. I just end up with Lux, Blitz, Nidalee or Heimer 90% of the time (and both times I played Lux were 10-man Lux games). It gets boring fast when you see the same 7 heroes on either side and the random few times when you get a different champion nobody knows how to use them or they just whine and bitch about how playing blitz for the 18th time would've been so much more fun.

I've only done it three times and all three times were really fun. Basically Malphite, Lux and Karthus get banned every game in the ones I've been in so I've never played against or as them. First game was my team was Katarina vs Taric (not sure why anyone would pick taric for this mode), that was a stomp. Next game was my team as Mundo vs Nidalee, that game was a shitload of fun. 5 mundos throwing axes at 5 nidalees trying to kite and poke. Was pretty intense until we got our spirit visages, then it was GG. Last game was my team as Riven vs Zyra, that game was annoying as shit towards the end, and even though we had a sizable early lead it took us forever to close out the game because of all the CC in those tight spaces around the inhib turrets.

So I was a little drunk last night, got on league at about 1am and got in RR chat. Somebody told me how OP Taric is atm (think it was lumi?) so I just immediately queued into ranked, was 2nd pick and said I'm going top. Instant lock Taric when I was able too. Team got mad for a bit because they thought I was troll but eventually they came around to it. Was top lane against Jax so I thought it would be a tough matchup. Nope, it was easy as hell that the enemy jungle mundo had to camp me constantly. Still finished the game 7/2/8 with Sunfire + Randuins + Tabis + Hexdrinker and almost had GA finished. I basically had like 350 armor and like 160 MR, Passive gives you 30% of your armor into damage after each spell cast so it's basically like a lich bane proc at that point. Q scales with bonus health now so my heals were much larger even having no AP, my W would shatter about ~70 armor in an AoE aura, then R to give me 70AD and 35 to everybody else.

At first I didn't think it would be that great, but good lord. The last engagement I held off the enemy team 1v5 for like 10 seconds while my team was doing baron, like 3 ults got blown on me and I'm just slowly kiting back towards baron, meet up with the team, I flash away with about 200hp, clean ace, gg.

That champion. Abuse him while you can, especially if it's an AD heavy team.
