rip, fixed
honestly Xin has the potential to be one of the coolest champions in League if he's done right. Dudes with spears are cool
I'd like to go full dragoon without him being a dragoon. jumps n stuff

If Xin didn't get blown up immediately
and was able to jump on enemies as needed(IE E into an enemy, then immediately E into another one), he'd be awesome. Hell, give him a combo system. E followed by Q allows him to E more times, Q followed by E lets him throw his spear or something
what I'm saying is look towards Dynasty Warriors for inspiration. Xin Zhao can easily, be stylistically the coolest champion.
they didn't say talon needed buffs, that'd be crazy, dude is pretty high up in winrate in both top and mid
also their read on the updates sounds pretty solid, acknowledging most of the issues while having pretty decent answers to them
i'd disagree with some stuff (like leblanc feeling more like a deceiver, cos she feels less so now) but generally good stuff
jokes aside, it does sound like they'll have to rework ryze again someday. maybe not as big of a rework but i'm pretty sure he'll get some changes
he needs way more than a shyvana like update, both his art and his moveset are both very uninspired and need some major changes
not sion level but definitely a shen level imo
hmm, i'd say neck and neck, but maybe it's not a class issue and it's more that the champions that represent divers are kind of some of the worst low counterplay champions around (vi, irelia, nocturne, hecarim)
fairly good list, tho it's missing malzahar, who's new rework made it crystal clear that half reworks won't cut it for him
some choices are a bit confusing tho, putting volibear on that list while leaving out someone like tryndamere is really strange to me, but all of those champions should get changed quite a bit

Trynd has a functional kit, he's just outdated and frustrating to play against like Teemo.
Voli's kit on the other hand is pretty shit because he was basically created as a meme champion and little thought was put in his skillset besides making him a thunder bear.

i'm not saying anything positive about volibear here (tho i think at least he looks cool), so idk, just use morgana or chogath instead
tryndamere felt like a good fit for that list cos nothing about him is any good, he's ugly, his kit is bad, his identity is bad, it's not fun to play with him or against him because of how uninteractive he i, his skillfloor/skillceiling stuff is all very hard to appreciate, etc.
some other champions also fit that idea, tho, he just felt like an odd miss in there

I finally got to promos! Singed's been really good so far, confusing people and allowing me to be a freaking pain in the ass. The latest game I laned up against a Kled who killed me thrice during laning phase and never allowed me to proxy, but come mid-game I was split-pushing all over the place and forcing them to divert their attention to me. I even managed to keep four of them busy for almost three minutes at their bot inhib turret while my team picked up an easy ancestral dragon, walked all the way up to their base and teamed up with me to seal the deal.
Then I also got a really weird interaction in that match, where I wanted to fling a Jax and he jumped away, but then my fling affects him anyway even though I'm obviously out of range and sends him flying back to where he was (and onto of my goo and MF's rain of bullets for the win).
I love my oddball champs... like, people know how to play against a guy who wants to walk up to you and kill you, but Singed's approach is so vastly different from that that people at my ELO are constantly caught off-guard by his deceptive damage potential and crazy tankiness.

singed's flip is just like panth's w, the moment you cast the spell it's guaranteed to flip/stun them regardless of what they do between the cast time and the interaction (barring spellshield of course)
there's a slight chance that envelope and I were a bit tilted that game :^)

Tilited how? We had just mined all that salt from the 5 ADCs in the game before that lol
bot lane was just getting bullied because MF support only works if you're like challenger+ and zyra feels awful to play against
and i'm bad at adc

I should've banned Malzahar, but I let it go through and banned camille instead. :V At least my support is Lulu.
I doubt they'll do much of anything to her and I'm one those people who happen to believe base stat nerfs are stronger than players give them credit for.
Champions losing move speed is always a nerf, but there's losing 5 MS on a champion that needs to charge in to engage (e.g. Skarner) and then there's losing 5 MS on a champion with a mid cooldown dash and an uninterruptible on-click dash across 1/3 of the screen. Likewise, losing base attack speed on a champion with two AA resets and that depends on burst is different than a base attack speed nerf on a champion that's focused on dps.
i could sense the tilt in envelope down bot and i'm a sympathetic tilter
autofill is not a big deal but getting position switched after someone else dodged is the fucking worst
i prefer sensible nerfs to champions like vi that are frustrating and everything but i think are overall positives for the game, vs champions like malzahar that should be straight out gutted
i think stat nerfs are pretty damn strong and i think they're targeting two very strong things about her (mobility and clear) so at least the direction is fine

Legit, I don't even know what is going through people's heads some times. My jungler flashed over dragon wall to try to steal a cloud drake at the 25 minute mark.
They can have the cloud drake, don't throw your life away for it. ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE'S A BLAST CONE AVAILABLE NEXT TO THE PIT.

I wonder if Kayle will become a support or riot will makes her full assassin
second lost promo series to g1, first time i went mid adc so i got 2 adc, 1 mid, now i went mid top and i've gotten 2 top 1 mid
would be nice if riot allowed me to have any influence on the result of my promo series
i can't even say i'm having trouble climbing, but would be nice if riot didn't sabotage my promos every time
i've gone through two naut games without feeding but the boredom is such that i want to kill myself

Bots feeding out the ass to Jhin and Annie ... Leo going "full ap" and jinx is like 0/7.
It's like people don't want to win this game.

Riot made a streaming tutorial which is pretty neat

i don't know why but at night i turn into envelaap
funny enough, all three lee sin games were against hecarim jungle who my team and I made int and basically afk the game after 2 minutes. the third hecarim was about to trash talk at the start of the game and so i muted him, my team told me he said he was gonna 1v5 and make me regret taking his lee sin. he went 0/6

Junglers are the most influential role together with midlaners after all.
Autofill mids that just let their lane opponents roam while not getting any damage on tower and still lose in cs are quite terrible.

Quinn has been really strong for ages, these lethality buffs will probably end up with riot nerfing her though.
Then they will revert the lethality buffs without reverting Quinns nerfs and then she'll be garbage untill they rework her in two years.
I always feel so bad when I get autofilled support. I just want to spam apologies through laning phase. Luckily my last adc didn't speak English so I just assumed he was giving me words of encouragement
had a varus adc go the muramana build against a warwick and mundo as if he was ever gonna poke them out. he didn't even build mortal reminder, he built LDR. i tell him this and he takes it as if i'm blaming him for the game, and flames me the rest of the game because i couldn't carry from a 5/0 lead

He works in all ELOs. W-W-E, maybe throw in a flash R here and there and you've played correctly. Have I mentioned that I'm still not over the fact that my jungler flashed into the dragon pit last night trying to steal a cloud drake. When he could've also used blasting plant to get in and flash back out even?
:V Playing an immobile ADC against a fed Kha'zix when no one on your team peels for you is pretty fun.

He's literally brainless
not soon enough!
I'll buy him tonight and play him in ranks

Just for the people picking up Malz, the build is to max W first because the voidlings are why he's stupid in lane. Then once you hit level 6 you have a point and click multiple second disable.
