God, Akali. So over-the-top strong. I can't seem to lose as her. That shroud is lololol

EDIT: Why doesn't she see more playtime?

Meta dependent. Westrice is the pro that mains her. She's great for getting to carries and eviscerating teams that rely on one, especially since they can't escape, but she's not as good against Bruiser teams. She also requires a snowball to get going, though she's less dependent on a snowball than LeBlanc or Kassadin.

[Jonathan Meer]

I never, ever snowball with her.

[John Doe]

I never, ever snowball with her.

Just so we're clear, in this case, snowball only means get kills early then destroy anything that breathes late game. Doesn't mean get snowball items.

Edit: Also, here's new Soraka.

[Jonathan Meer]

Oh. Yeah, that's something I have noticed.

[Tyr]

Assassins in general will probably get more play as we move away from the tanky meta.

I just hope it's not back to the AoE meta because dear lordie lord that was boring!

[Ashe]

I'm jungling Taric.

Guys I ... I'm going to do something I thought I'd never do. I'm going to buy Teemo.

I've hated him for so long, but today I finally tried him out against bots whilst he was free, intending only to get a better idea of the champion so that I could kill him better. But with this power ... I could destroy my enemies. And his mushrooms synergise perfectly with my tendency to be 'that ward guy' in normal games, because it allows me to actually buy things besides wards.

But seriously. So good.

Today was a great day to be Karthus. I'm getting better at landing his Q or people aren't moving away, idk, but I pretty much can't go negative on him and it's awesome. Usually in the top two for CS as well.

[Kaden]

AP Teemo for shroom lawls.

A good skill to work on with Karthus is punishing enemies for trying to farm. Watch the HP of your own minions and when one low, put a bomb in the path that the enemy will take to last hit it. It helps with awareness and gives you a better feel for an opponent's tendencies, movements, and range. You will want to be careful about doing this too much, though, because the AoE can easily get your lane pushed and put you in a bad place.

Son. I am disappoint.

Sometimes we have to do questionable things, unethical things, for the greater good.

Played a game with Iceart last night. I played Akali for the first time in a while and wow is she a lot of burst damage. I'll definitely be playing more of her.

[Rafael]

Someone just posted about Soraka with Rylai's...dear god that's terrifying

Even when people were playing her as straight support that was a good item on her.

What's more "support" than AoE slow and MR debuff every 3 seconds?

[Ashe]

I was watching a game the other day and had the sudden realization that Soraka gives either 120 Armor or MR. I was thinking a lower amount, but no, at any moment, if they've built any decent amount of defense in the game, anyone can instantly become a tank as far as stats go.

[Tyr]

Solution: Always get Last Whisper or tons of armor pen.
