Still learning Quinn. A lot of her kit is really....really awesome. Can ult and fuck up a person, then 80% move speed across the map and gank the shit outta everyone else. Problem is linking all these skills together can be tough. But in bursts she's fucking awesome.

I just started playing this a couple days ago. When should I stop playing against bots? I'm only level 6, so I can't Flash or anything. I've split my time about 80/20 between Soraka and Ashe. It's just getting boring pounding on bots all day, but I'm not sure whether or not I'll be a liability if I start doing PvP at what seems like such an early time.

Get to a point where you are consistently going like 20+ kills and no deaths on bots. Also, pick up a few more champs. Your selection right now just mainly limits you to bottom lane in the meta.

Start playing normals now. Since it pairs you according to level you won't be crushed. Bots are good for mechanics and learning new champs, but I think it would be better to learn against real players than bots.

You'll still get crushed by a few smurfs. Best thing to do is mute everyone.

I thought the EU teams were supposed to use more diverse champs, but after this weeks games so far, it looks like the NAs are more likely to use a larger pool of champs. EU just plays different champs from the US, but it looks like they prefer FotM champs over long term favorites.

Tristana is free of you like their Facebook page, Alister is free of you like their YouTube page. Garen is cheap (450 ip 1-2 games)and he is also pretty good and easy to use.

Neat.

What's sad is that my mmr is still higher than my league rating. I was still getting +30 for wins on purple team. Probably still will, with how I streak wins/losses.

I've been queued with d2-5s since plat 3.

1. Pick Kogmaw
2. Build BOTRK
3. ???
4. Win

Am I wrong? Is anything else really required to win games now? Throw in a Hurricane for the lulz.

**Akanei** · 2013-03-04 01:51

Right now I'd say the best 3 adcs are Varus, Vayne and Quinn. Otherwise you're on the right track.

BotRK, Edge, PD/Shiv, gg.

I have notice that people have already stopped building health over armor. The Bork is awesome against health, but I don't think that is going to be a lasting trend.

Also, how can you say Quinn is a top 3 adc already? Once people figure out the kit I don't see her being up there for long. I would give it more than a couple of days before coming to that conclusion. Trist is making a come back, Graves is still good. MF, Ez, etc. Although I do wish I hadn't sold back Varus for Graves when he was FotM. I liked Varus's kit better anyway.

**Dantrag** · 2013-03-04 09:11

Thing is Botrk will still be around for ADC and champs like Irelia and Jax. They're pretty much core now. The active is so damn powerful. For vayne it's an amazing item.

Back at my promotion series for gold 1 -_-; I swear shit comes in waves of wins and loses lol. I either do shitty or my team does shitty. Been a while since I had a winning streak that was more than 4 games.

**Denchi** · 2013-03-04 09:42

I just pick Graves for the instawin vs EZ. Love how predictable that EZ pick is.

Still continuing my dominance with Morde. Another 13-0 game. Was funny since the whole team was flaming me for the pick "ASSHOLE WE NEED AP DAMAGE NOT MORDE HE DOESNT DO ANY DAMAGE WTF."

Lulz. Dropped back into Silver III last week, back into Silver II this week. Same thing as Dantrang, just haven't been able to put together a good win streak in a while.

Oh, BoRK is definitely an awesome item. I love it. It does cause some problems with builds on ADC (like having way too much AS if you have another AS item, but is that really a problem?), but I think it is a legit choice (I have been using it on Trist in the last couple of games). I am just saying that it is a bit overvalued right now because it was designed to deal with the League of Warmogs meta, which was designed to deal with the League of Armor Pen, and now it's somewhat more balance until the next trend starts. I do think with the BoRK though we finally have the Rock, Scissors, Paper aspect that is needed to prevent one build from being massively overpowered.

**Dantrag** · 2013-03-04 10:13

Biggest problem I see is that people are going Botrk first(which is fine) but then go AS...........

NO... GET DAMAGE. BT or IE.

I am still going BT first, but that is because I am a bad player and need the sustain from the Vamp and BT. Then I got BoRK, then the rest as the game dictates. BoRK has a huge amount of AS, and I am struggling with when to build a full AS item. I have been getting a Zeal then just going for more damage.
