Ok, let's talk about the skins. How bad is Sony gonna fucking sue riot for Sly Cooper twitch? Will they ever make a better trundle skin than Little Slugger Trundle(which looks like benny the jet for sandlot and shoots a little league trophey out of the ground)? Volibear with a moustache screams "trying too hard to be comical". Eve looks bad. Battlecast Skarner only took 2 years and it's def gonna be 1850+. Kog MAw battlecast is "too cool". Bloodmoon Kallista reminds me of true blood. Mlaz, Ori and Elise looks awful. Poro Sejuani is p funny. Blood Moon Thresh does look legit.

1) You lose 20% spell vamp in exchange for high gold generation and 500 gold in pocket straight up. I don't know how you'd take a discount rate in League, but over the course of a game it's probably gonna be worth more than that spell vamp would have been.

2) Duo queue! And by that logic we should say things like Zed, Jayce, and Nami are shit-tier champions because they can only be used effectively at the highest level of play.

The skin is actually an anime reference.

1. Fair enough.

2. High mechanics =/= highest level of play. Yasuo,Zed, and the like are decent because they are mechanics based. I'm simply saying if something is situational strong, and that situation doesn't happen in 90% or more of games than yeah, it's not a viable strategy for most players and thus don't fall under the generalization of "this is good". "This is good" should typical be used for something that is universally good, like toilet paper or warwick.

Hey man, if you're ever interested, I have at least a basic understanding of jungle, used to be considered fluent in sign (though debatable now that it's been like two years since any significant practice), I'd be willing to stream with you while describing certain techniques whenever you're unsure of what's going on. Sometimes it's easier to visualize than read an article, and I can at least explain anything you miss?

I would watch this, FWIW.

I haven't signed in like 8 years (and I used a different language to you), but I still find it a beautiful language on which to "eavesdrop". (EDIT: I shouldn't end sentences with prepositions).

hey SS!

You know the new jungle? if so thats awesome. I have a decent understanding of the old jungle too but the new one is different.

although I'm not sure how a signing league stream would work- league kinda keeps my hands busy. heh.

I helped him with this, btw. I've only played one game in the new jungle but I gave a brief overview of everything I could really think of.

Klazam: I know a jungle main that might be able to help, but he needs a champion or list of champions that you're looking to jungle with first.

Warwick was already OP. He's just more OP cause the jungle kills everyone else. I must say, I love smiting people though. Played j4 and malph last night. Malph doesn't clear the jungle

Katarina is getting nerfed, but still feels like not enough.

Sona is getting nerfed which saddens me. Reducing the AP ratio on Q and perhaps worst of all reducing the missing health ratio by half.

PS. I was playing on Latina America North yesterday, which was both amusing and low pingy. Unfortunately after this patch, my launcher is still on LAN. But for some reason it's zoomed in. I can still EJECUTAR if I wanted, but the button to switch regions is not on the screen because it's zoomed in. It does this even when I close and restart the launcher. Any ideas?

EDIT: I've tried restarting my computer. same thing. I am stuck forever playing on this server??

fixed it. but had to change my DPI setting back to 100% from 125%. I guess it's okay if I have to do that to switch servers since I won't do that often.
