I'll probably pick him up eventually. He's like Janna in terms of support, more classical.

I have been playing a lot of games as Javran recently I despise versing Nidalee... She is so annoying to verse when you are playing as J4. "You want csJarvan? Eat a spear!" "Oh, yeah, you think you trap me in your ult, I'll go cougar on you and jump out, just to spear you in the face." >.>

Nid Spears are easy to dodge once you get used to them. Remember also, they do more damage the further they have travelled, so if you know your gonna get hit, run toward them.

I'm having fun at the moment playing Sona as an AD+mana spellsword using Muramana + Iceborn Gauntlet. Her abilities have short cooldowns, short animations, auto-target and don't cost much mana, so I can spam them to charge Manamune and later to power spellblades and power chords.

Double IP weekend just finished. Crammed in a load of games and gained about 6,000 IP in the 2 days. Nice.

This past weekend I enjoyed watching some of the Euro Quals for the LCS. I saw some interesting tactics so when I decided to learn a couple new champions I figured I'd toy around with them as well.

I'll tell you what, setting up homeguard boots and teleport on Malphite is ridiculous. Nobody is escaping without damage on that gank! Now to do it with a damage dealer like Vi...

Just had a go with the Homeguard + Teleport combo on Riven. Managed to gank two enemy champions in one go, chasing down Renekton with Wind Slash and then running into the enemy base to kill Miss Fortune before Recalling out.

You're in luck. This is something in the works on the PBE. Of course, as someone who plays a lot of Cho, I disagree.

Thank God! Its just so ridiculously long, I had to lane against him as katarina, HE WAS 1 Q AWAY UNDER TOWER and fething silenced me. I was like " U WOT M8?" Then died.

Cho was one of my first characters. He is just so mighty in so many ways.

If you ever want to pick him up, google the MFing chogath by condon. It is tremendously dated, but presents the best understanding of the Cho psychology that I have ever seen.

In three words- fat and sassy.

I'm a good kat though. Plus i know something few people can do or realise: You can dodge the knock up, its easy. You either preempt it and start running, thereby getting out of the way, or duke him into using it. Same with mundo/amumu Q, stand behind minions constantly, they can't do anything to you, problem solved.

While I can agree to that with champs like Amumu or Blitz, Mundo is a different boat because when I lane with him I actually like to use my cleaver to last hit from range (recharges in about the same time). So what would happen in the end is that the enemy gets complacent and relaxed because I'm not targeting them then they take a cleaver to the face.

Yeah i can understand that, but as i said before, if theres minions between the cleaver and you, its fine lol. The only times a mundo can Q me in lane is either a) When im running away from a gank etc, b) they try and flank around to land it, in which case i just put the minions in front again, and poke like crazy or c) When im accidentally too far forward and they take advantage.

The new Garen skin looks very similar to some of those Spacey Marines. I like it a lot.

The Darius one looks even more like a space marine. I think Garen looks more like a terminator to be honest, even though he and Darius are about the same size.

That's sort of the point of it too which is cool. Apparently the red recolour for Garen was inspired by the Blood Angels.

Anyway been having "fun" with the new ranked system. Got dragged all the way down to Bronze IV by the genius I encountered in my placement matches. Gems such as 2/3v5s, ADC Yi with an afk jungle, etc...

Indeed, I'm probably low enough for every game to be trolled as well now. At least sometimes it'd be on their side and I should have been high enough to get decent LP from those wins.

I started at Bronze IV due to trolling. Made it to Bronze 2 in about 6 hours worth of playing. Do not worry, it is not that hard.

Then you've never been placed and need to go through the placement matches before being put into a tier (I'm pretty sure that's just like before)

When you start ranked you are an unranked player and need to play placement matches to get your rank (basically a series of random matches against already ranked players used to determine where you belong).

Ah, i see i thought it was that, but wasn't sure.
