9/21/0 With 6% life steal some AD AR and MR for runes. Dorans shield + pot start. DO NOT USE MANA on anything but Q's unless you're being ganked then W. That's it. Q > W > E levels. Ghost Tele. Either homeguards or lucidity upgrade on boots depending. If you're winning lucidty. Losing homeguard. Nothing short of rammus tele is as scary as Nasus tele with homeguard lol.

Play shyvana. Laugh in his face as he tries to out trade you.

Shyvanna pretty strong now, is she just flavor-of-the-month or did they adjust her?

She hasn't been nerfed or buffed in months. Nobody played her until the Koreans started doing it. She's one of those champs that can build pure tank and still do quite a fair amount of damage.

I'm pretty new, but from what seen and heard from friends, this. People just started picking her up after Koreans did, but even as a rookie speccing a billion matches, I always noticed how goddamn tanky she was scraps and skirmishes with people. Its nice to see her getting used, just like its nice to finally see people using Syndra, even if its just a FotM thing.

Her passive is 5 def and Mr at level 1, 10 at 6, 15 at 11, and 20 at 16.

Syndra got popular when Bjergsen started using her.

Koreans picked her up from China. She was one of those oddball champions that everyone wrote off as only being popular because of China's wacky isolated meta until she got played in another region.

uh what? she just got her E changed from lameass poke to a %HP damage on-hit debuff, a buff to the duration and recast of her ult, and a buff to her armor/mr passive (it was moved off her ult to her actual passive, so she has it before 6)

She was a relatively common pick in EU in general.

This was a while ago, and she didn't see play until much after that.

Where the fuck are her face whisker marks?

FRAUD!

**Viq** · 2013-11-20 18:11

I'm guessing they blew away under the gale-force winds generated by nervous Faker's shaking hands.

**Viq** · 2013-11-22 00:28

Montecristo's new show is really good. The first 30 minutes or so was a breakdown of nerfs and buffs from 3.13 and how they shifted the meta, which examples from OGN. From about 20-30min he focused entirely on team comps, and it was really interesting.

EDIT: Don't feel like triple-posting. Pray picking up dem pentas in OGN tonight.

League of Runic Shields?

I was outsustained on Nasus by fucking Akali last night.

league of nerf rotations

slightly viable? slightly popular? hope you had fun, because you're getting nerfed soon. and when the champs you countered start getting played more, they'll get nerfed too.

The problem is that pro players are already rotating through champs faster than Riot can get the nerf bat out. Most "OP" champs aren't even that OP right now (assassin's were, very much so and they were pushing out mages), they are just what the players are enjoying. The number of viable top lanes has never been higher. I hope that riot is seeing this.

Believe me, I hate the way that Riot nerfs champs where instead of tweaking numbers, they tweak gameplay, but on the last round of nerfs I do believe it was necessary.

I still think they need to equalize the damage between Zix's Q and W. I much prefered the old Zix's playstyle even if it did need to be nerfed.

For max entertainment watch the second game of Samsung Ozone vs Team Dark from today's OGN championship. It's...different.

**Viq** · 2013-11-23 09:13

That was a total troll game. The level 1 dragon was kinda tight though.

For real games, both of the JA Stealth vs JA Falcons games were really good.

**BadKarma** · 2013-11-23 09:19

The new champion looks awesome. Another AD Midlaner is always welcome
