The RIOT Act

[Mr. Zhu]

I play a good Nasus and I disagree with you. While being a statement, it also serves as a pretty exact summary of what you posted. We're both going to believe whatever we want about how we play compared to someone else.

Saying "there is no set, but you have to choose one of these two things" is completely contradictory. It's not a real choice. The point of saying "there is no set" is to encourage people to experiment with builds that they like. Saying "these are the only two boots you should ever buy" encourages the exact opposite. Literally, no, it's not a contradiction. Logically, it total is.

I understand all the pros and uses of Reverie (I even stated that it's a great item). I don't usually build it on Nasus and, for people who are almost guaranteed to forget to use the item during a team fight, it ends up being a waste of gold. That's the audience I was speaking to. And no matter how much you like the item, there is not a single argument you can make that says that Reverie is worth the gold even if you never use the active.

While repeating the conventional wisdom of LoL can be helpful, it's more helpful if you tailor your comments and advice to the people you're talking to. Active items with the ability to disengage are not the level Mal is at. Trying to force it down his throat because you've heard as much from high Elo players isn't really helpful.

EDIT: I sound like I'm being a bitch here and that's not the intent. I'm just tired and don't really have the energy to make the words all pretty and nice. Just know there's no malicious or otherwise aggressive intent in my choice of wording. I was simply being blunt.

That's fair enough. I agree with you on the points you've mentioned. There's no need to debate about these issues. Once Mal gets comfortable and really gets into the game maybe even in competitive levels, he wouldn't need our suggestions anyway. You were right, I wasn't taking into account of the activation of Reverie, many people forget to use it, heck even I forget to pop Zhonya's Hourglass sometimes. Good stuff.
