Okay. tried tank akali today a lot. Had a lot:

It was rough at first because I had never played akali before, but it's gotten better now. I still have trouble with some champs in the early game. Renekton was a hard lane.

I'm not sure it's optimal, but it is fun because you can actually jump on people and survive. It seems like a build that even if I lose my lane pretty badly I'm able to do stuff later.

yeah i like amumu and will definitely use him in certain comps but he just doesn't seem like the sort of jungler i'm looking for

What type of jungler ARE you looking for then?

Play jungle Kog'Maw

It's flawless, I swear.

"dynamic queue will remove the arguments about position"

Yeah i kinda just got abused by my ADC and mid lane for taking jungle (the position i got) over the mid laner "smurf" taking jungle to play her 1 game udyr.

The smurf that has a 57% win rate and has constantly been silver as well.

Premades are fun.

I don't think it's eliminated it, but I experience it very, very, very rarely now. Maybe one in the games I've played has someone tried to get another person to give up their role. And when they didn't, they didn't go double mid or anything -- they just did their role.

role negotiations still happen for me in draft pick
but they never start with someone feeling entitled to a role the system didn't assign to them

I have traded a couple of times in ranked, where I got another role, but had just had a series of support games. Might as well use that practice, and even when people get it, they aren't always too stoked about getting support again. I think in 50% of the times it came up we got a trade of roles and everybody was still happy.

Anyone else catch Dyrus and the other people at the analyst desk discuss tank akali?

i want to deal more damage mostly
maybe even kill people!
but in general, i want to be flexible without having to pick a different champ
i had this game where my toplane was shen and our damage output as a team in general was rather low
we could land massive amounts of cc, but didn't really have any reliable follow-up to any of that

i'm gonna start with ekko and then move down to simpler champs from there as i become inevitably frustrated with his kit
he's got as much cc or more than amumu (though perhaps it's less reliable?), can more reliably kill people all on his own, and can be built flexibly to fit a team's composition

i know he's not as simple as amumu and i will struggle with that, but life is life

I recommend Elise or Nid

If you just want damage, play a devourer jungler.

Psyche · Post Post #48467 (ISO) » Mon Feb 22, 2016 6:14 am

no no i want cc too
i want it all and ekko has it all

Cabd · Post Post #48468 (ISO) » Mon Feb 22, 2016 6:15 am

Ekko really gained form the new jungle item, actually. movespeed and burst is great on him.

He's my favorite jungler at the moment, and behind him is fatman (not not fatfrog).
