Psh, Maokai is fuckin' beast. On no other champ do I actually feel like a badass even without having to be fedSome armor, some MR and +20% resistance in ult plus some solid damage on top of it? I get better ratios with him than anyone else possibly excepting Karthus which is just cheating

Lee Sin does suck pretty bad though

God why do I even play this game, I am so fucking awful.

Woot, finally got around to buying seals for my one and only runepage, so I just need to get the last two levels and I'll have one full page finally. Also, not that I can ever save enough IP to use it for buying a champ, let the QQ about 6300 champs be silenced with Rumble.

A few of us already saw this, but I'll post it for those that haven't checked the skin lists recently.

Guinsoo just confirmed Irelia nerfs incoming.

Oh, and I guess his next remake is Tryndamere now that Alistar is out.

Woot, finally, finally hit 30!

Those people with a loss on Co-op vs AI? I'm now one of them. Ended the game 14-8-5 as Nidalee. The rest on my team had scores along the lines of 0-8-3 (Sivir that literally just ran up and pushed, died, ran to push, died, tanking turrets and enemies while ignoring them until she died, ignoring even when the AI was attacking our inhib) or the Kog that was 4-9-3 (or something close) going full AP build and bitching the entire game. Another guy had 5 kills, another had 2, another had 0.

The entire game Kog is bitching in mid about "stop feeding them, god, we have to stop feeding them. just like last game the Ryze is geared as shit because you guys keep feeding him!!!"

I explained to him that they get geared by level at set intervals, so even if you deny them entirely, they will still gear up at certain levels. He then commences to spending the entire rest of the game bitching about "fucking lazy riot making stupid AI that are terrible but hey lets give the losing team free gear to make absolutely sure they win! this shit's impossible, fucking cheating to make sure their bots can't lose, pisses me off".

I was amazed.

Our team's stupidity aside, enemy team was Ashe, Soraka, Shen, Nunu, and Ryze, the exact five I don't like seeing on one team (due to the sustainability from Shen + Nunu + Soraka and Ashe and Ryze being able to initiate at any point with Ashe doing it from anywhere with perfect accuracy).

Not that it helped because my team would get rocked by Nunu every time. He doesn't cancel his ult early and yet they'd stand in it the full duration attacking away at him (I refused to look at their gear to understand why no one other than Cho could take a hit and yet none of them could do any damage either) until suddenly they are all nearly dead, then Shen ulted (where he teleported in during the Nunu ult onto the Nunu they were focusing within his ult), taunted them all, Nunu bloodboils the Ashe and then they get Volleyed once for the kill. Then Soraka and Ryze would just perma cc the next target down despite Hourglass.

Meanwhile, Sivir is at top lane while our undefended Nexus slowly goes down, attacking a tower with no creeps near, the only thing running through her mind is "PUSHPUSHPUSHPUSHPUSH".

I'm at work til 6 PST...but I'm definitely up for LoL after. I plan on jungle Amumu-ing.

I can't help but wonder if the reason they're only revealing silhouettes of some new characters is because of .... MAJOR GRAPHICS UPDATE SOON? Seems like they were waiting on the new patcher to do some stuff they couldn't do before, this could be one of them (I hope, because magma chamber sounds sweet).

*crossing fingers*

I am really super excited for Vayne, though. Super duper.

Sadly, I don't think so. I think season 2 will add the new map and new graphics.

Is there any official word on when Season 2 is coming?

EDIT: Summary, as of mid-Feb, no plans yet for Season 2. That's the most recent news I've heard about it.

EDIT2: http://community-na.static.leagueoflegen...p?t=675036

Actually, Season Two could be starting in August.

[Waffuru]

I think what we're assuming is Season 1 is about 1 year long (started July 13th 2010) and then about 6 weeks between seasons.

The art team has to basically redo every skin and texture in the game, then also make the skins for new champions. It was originally announced September so I wouldn't even be shocked to see it come out that late either. They don't have an ETA really, so that's why they aren't giving us one.

[Rafael]

Patch again already? This one seems pretty big

Also, while I'm thinking about it wtb Achievements since I got my first Quadra kill yesterday

[Waffuru]

I think it's the patch to force the new updater.
