I've heard that there are issues with translation to English, and that it's not as "bad" as it seems - in the sense that while the stupid rule is definitely transphobic, it's supposedly not homophobic. Which is better than being both, I guess. It's still a bullshit rule, though.
Chloroform girl, how have you been?
Don't let me catch you sleeping again
You're only alive because I like you
It's been three years since you've seen the sunlight
But I know you're having fun
Bound, gagged and chained up in my basement

I kind of figured that one out on my own. I highly doubt that anyone is going to say "preferring sexual relations with X makes you a better/worse player".
No, it's far more likely they'll fall back on the good old fashioned "transwomen have an unfair advantage due to X".
Yes my Lord, but questions are dangerous, for they have answers.

Not shown in article: Garena being threatened within an inch of their business relationship with Riot. Riot has a lot of problems, but they've done a decent job trying to crack down on slur-users, and this seems like the sort of thing (combined with the tweet yesterday) that they just won't tolerate.

Some of the graphs are pretty interesting! For example, despite being a quintessential "late game" champion, Vladimir has his highest winrate in the 20-25 minute time-bin (53%), whereupon his winrate drops dramatically until the 35+ minute bin (which is the latest bin available). I might have expected a pretty different power-curve.
Other late game champions like Sejuani have the anticipated power curve, though.

Looks like it's on Kalista/Vayne/Twitch/Koggles, so it seems to pop up where you expect the extra AS might do work. I'd never heard of it before, either.
It's interesting to compare the popularity and success of that approach. For example, it's more popular than successful on Koggles, but it's more successful than popular on Kalista.

As a vlad player: this is because Vlad murders lane when he gets going (Hextech and Guise or Needlessly Large Rod), but he can't roam that well to secure kills because he has no CC. So if the advantage from Vlad winning lane isn't enough to close out the game, he's kind of just waiting for big teamfights to start so Hemoplague can style upon everyone.

So can someone talk about building fighters like Irelia, Darius, Fiora, and so on? If I build sunfire/randuins, my damage is low, but if I build Tiamat first and then build into tankiness, I don't have enough survivability.
