HoN failures must be playing LoL lately in droves.

DotA2 out yet?

[Szeth]

Man when DotA2 DOES come out, all you LoL fags are gonna feed so rampantly.

Luckily after a few matches I won't have to deal with the sub 1700 scrubs.

[Knuckle]

so cool i bet your fat too and dont have a gf.

[SearyxTZ]

The amount of leaving/ragequit/griefing/elitism in DotA1 puts LoL to shame. Load up your WC3 if you need a refresher. I played it for years.

HoN is rife with that pussy shit too.

LoL has been infinitely better community-wise, and it's still shit.

PvP in general is primarily comprised of inbred retards bashing their sloping brow on their keyboards, spewing memes like they're new still. But, at least LoL is that one step above HoN.

Typical HoN player, to a fucking T:http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSbsvK8ZTUW0w-gwmeBZtNw8y3PKCGBZYvLbCMWQukyRx3PrmgS

Discuss.

[Harrison]

I would move vayne and gragas to tier 1.

Move nasus to tier 2. Wither having NO counter makes it possible to catch asshole rammus' stacking 4 zeal's etc.

[Massive Marc]

I feel Rammus is over hyped. The only reason I suggest banning him is because most people are dumb and let him do whatever he wants. If you have a team that has any level of intelligence, he's pretty easy to deal with. Blitz and Nunu can both challenge him for Windmill at the start.

There's other chars that can do what Nasus can do, just better. His inability to farm really hurts him.

The Vayne we played with was really strong, I will probably move her up to T1.

My real concern is Shaco. BY far the strongest char on the map with Ezreal a strong second.

If you have a good Shaco controlling mid, while your team controls its 3 points, its fucking devastating. Ezreal is the only char that can effectively be offense and defense at the same time.

[Scribbles]

taric is v lol. had 2 play him by accident cuz with like 1 second left pokeman was like SORAKA NERFED ALERT ALERT but then went like 9/1/10 (got ksed lots duh)

[Harrison]

Shaco is very good, yes.

Ezreal is very hit or miss. I've rarely seen good ezreals.

Typically I play a tank or offtank in my RL crew's games.

[Massive Marc]

taric is v lol. had 2 play him by accident cuz with like 1 second left pokeman was like SORAKA NERFED ALERT ALERT but then went like 9/1/10 (got ksed lots duh)

I still have the old Taric etched into my memory. I keep forgetting he's been remade. I will have to reserve his tier position until I've tested him better.

Shaco is very good, yes.

Ezreal is very hit or miss. I've rarely seen good ezreals.

Udyr is amazing tank/offtank... Been looking at Shen for some strategies I've been developing. His kit allows for some interesting play.

I remember earlier in this thread you explained you were a Poppy player. Poppy is incredibly strong on this map. His Kit is perfect and burst damage champs are really strong. Walls everywhere, god...

On a side note: I've read recently that casters are underpower and lackluster on this map. I disagree. Ryze is amazing. Leblanc found a new home and Zilean's kit is perfect for this game mode.

One thing that I think needs to be looked at is, the regeneration rate of a half captured point you control. It seems way to slow. I'd like to see my capture points health regen back to full quicker once I've stopped a enemy from capping. "Capture Poking" if you will, seems to strong.

[Eldaran]

I haven't had a chance to play dominion yet. Hope to get some time in game tonight and tomorrow. Most of you dudes are on my friends list maybe ill run into you

Seriously....I'm **SO** tired of people getting dominated by tanks. These are usually the same people who build 100% glass cannon on summoners rift. 0 defensive items, 0 tenacity, etc.

And of course they don't build the proper OFFENSIVE items either -- usually no armor penetration at all.

I really don't understand how some of these players get to level 30.

[ScaryBadAssholes]

Also....Poppy is **GODLY** in Dominion.

Don't think I lost a single dominion yesterday when playing Poppy.

[Harrison]

Yeah, Poppy is fucking ridiculous in dominion.

[ScaryBadAssholes]

Dominion JUST opened up!

[Harrison]

We've played roughly 12 games and only lost two so far.

We're enjoying the shit out of it, but some shit is just retardedly overpowered for that type of gameplay.

Towers don't regenerate fast enough after a piece of shit fast-moving character partially decapped it just to harass.

[Massive Marc]

Woot Dominion all night , going hard tonight. throw me a invite if you need another.

[ScaryBadAssholes]

Anyone getting EXTREMELY long Qs tonight!?!?

Like 5 mins+ regardless of the game type?

WTF.

[Knuckle]

You failed to mention Riven is top tier pal marc. She is definitely my favorite toon for dominion. Tanky DPS is very strong on this map.

[Massive Marc]

After playing today and last night, ill be updating it again

Some hero's have changed my opinion on some stuff, like Ryze and Alistar.

[SearyxTZ]

Riven is getting buffed - she sucks now honestly. Crappy version of Xin Zhao



I really like Jarvan on Dominion

Rammus and Nocturne are also really popular. Heimerdinger isn't horrible like he is on SR.

[Darksinga]

I just started playing this about a week ago with some of my pals.

Only like lvl 12 but it's a pretty fun way to pass time while waiting for some new games to release/R99.

Summoner Name is Tearel

I usually play Jax or Pantheon (not so much Pantheon anymore because you have to be a noob to get hit by his ultimate.)

[Harrison]

Pantheon's ultimate is more for mobility than damage. He's still fairly powerful without it, and in a teamfight it can turn the tide if you're too far away.

Karthus can suck a fuck. Dying on a point and being able to continuously harass is fucking dumb.

[Knuckle]

oooo secret infoz. i thought riven was well worth the ip. I think they need to rework her passive to either be more powerful or make her q ability more effective.

[Harrison]

Riven is...an annoyance, like Nidalee but more dangerous.

I don't see a use for her and I basically don't fear her either.

[Knuckle]

most people dont have a clue to build her. Stack AD with a little bit of armor and HPs and she is pretty brutal, if you are a remotly squishy class she wrecks.

[Harrison]

Only really a danger if you're going glass cannon, which anyone worth a shit doesn't do, even in pubs.

With the onset of the retarded and fucking imbalanced notion of "tanky dps" she just doesn't cut it, IMO.

Basically....Riot's whole idea of "tanky DPS" basically made 1/2 the games heroes obsolete.

Why are you still releasing a new hero every week, when 1/2 of the current heroes are 100% useless already?

Really.......You guys should really consider disabling champs like Evelynn for use in Season 2 Ranked Q.

No, really....why is Evelynn even playable in Ranked in her current state?

[Harrison]

I played a game with two evelynns.

The opposing evelynn claimed he facerolls ranked with her.

I proceeded to fucking rofl

[Massive Marc]

So after the first night of real playtime and test time, I've come to the conclusion that my tier list needs major revamping.

I no longer care about poppy,akali,irelia (still kinda scary, nerf plox) or talon.
How the fuck Morello can say Poppy and Aniva are OP is beyond me. We owned a Aniva last night no problem, and she wasn't bad.

APcasters need to have a stun/snare to really shine. Aniva's stun is hard to land. My buddy as Ryze, 1v2 constantly, owning shit. That was OP.

The real OP is Shaco and Heimer and too some extent Rammus, but hes just annoying.

Our strategy last night was perfect, Hold 3 points, control mid.Apply pressure to their points when we had the opportunity, but always retreated to mid or one of our points. Once mid was controlled, whenever a quest popped up, our lead DPS would grab middle buff and head to the quest point with the rest of the team and proceed to win quest point.

Quest are really strong and should be focused when they pop. 40 damage points to enemy nexus + 10% damage buff turned around A LOT of games we played. The buff kinda snowballs you because you can easily 5cap with 10% damage.

Knuckles CHO was fucking solid. Great bottom point defender. The question is, does the efficiency of top lane champs from summoners rift carry over to bottom lane in dominion. Will be interesting to see.

Oh... and dat Soraka... LOL > BEAST<

[Scribbles]

ahahahha and i thought Udyr was OP in normal games. in dominion he is just l o l

Oh... and dat Soraka... LOL > BEAST<

I think as bottom defender a few things I rapidly learned playing ChoGath.
Promote- Every bottom defender needs this skill.

For bottom lane things take a slower pace than the battles up top. Promote really harasses with the first wave of minions, the enemy champion is at their weakest, between my 3 spells on Cho and promoted minion, I can have their first wave cleared in about 2 seconds. Cho has so much sustainability there really isn't a comparable champ to 1v1 him bottom. Every single game I played they had to send a 2nd champion or I was able to by attrition push their tower.

The team needs to mobilize ASAP when the quest objectives are given, all 5 need to move to the quest point no questions asked, that's something thats a challenge without a premade.

The other thing is, super minions/ large waves of minions take the tower by hitting it, this also accelerates if the champion is able to capture. Alot of times I can clear down the enemy tower at level 4-5 just by harassing the enemy champion while the minions wear it down. This is a great tactic that minimizes feeding deaths to a defender.

[Harrison]

Heimer on bottom is pretty beast, too.

I usually defend bottom as Nasus. Good sustainability with his passive, and his E can defend the point for a good amount of time at a good distance. Farming his SS(Q) down bottom is really the only way to do it.

[Eldaran]

I wanna get a game together at 8pm EST. You guys have a voice server (p99 mumble?, skype, vent?)

[ScaryBadAssholes]

Leblanc absolutely destroys this map.

With her double flash ult (let alone summoner flash) she's basically always in range of a heal or speed buff.

Basically impossible to catch -- and with her high mobility for a mage, can help anywhere on the map very quickly.

[Diggles]

i love mf on this map but yeah leblanc all the way

[Massive Marc]

It looks like a lot of you guys are EST coast. We should set up a p99 playtime that accommodates both EST and MST/PST. 8 EST is a little to early for me, usually but if it's a few days of the week I could make it work.

I've enjoyed my time playing with P99 peeps. They have a good PVP sense.

Prefer to use skype or vent (i have a vent server if needed).

@Harrison - Nasus is undervalued IMO and it seems you found a good roll going bot with him, getting atleast SOME farm with him. I think the most interesting thing to watch progress is the evolution of the bottom lane battle. It seems to be a position that requires a skilled player as well as a good champ.

@Diggles/ScaryBadAssholes: I'm not convinced Leblanc is good, or better then other AP champs, such as Ryze. Same goes with MF.

EDIT: Will post updated Tier List later tonight/tomorrow. S

[Harrison]

Wither isn't affected by tenacity.

Stupid OP on dominion.

[Knuckle]

SLOWED BITCH

Hard to farm Q in a 20minute match especially with 3 minions per wave.

[Diggles]

MF isn't AP :o

unless you meant with other ADs, which im not sure what to say. MF's ult can clear a lane/point, she has awesome mobility from her passive, and her AoE interrupts caps.

[Eldaran]

Hard to farm Q in a 20minute match especially with 3 minions per wave.

I was thinking this same thing. Though nasus is still a tough champ especially with the ult up.

[Tappin]

I think Poppy is really good in Dominion, but I haven't played very much draft, yet. There are so many walls to stun people into, and she is already extremely fast with her W. Combine that with the run buff on map she gets around, fast. I usually build her with all movement speed items such as triforce, zeal, etc.

One of Poppy's weak points is her mana, and this isn't really an issue in Dominion.

[Diggles]

Ezreal is also a very good pick because of the walls because his E acts as a flash and will port you over any wall

[ScaryBadAssholes]

Ezreal is also a very good pick because of the walls because his E acts as a flash and will port you over any wall

Exactly my point about leblanc.

unless you meant with other ADs, which im not sure what to say. MF's ult can clear a lane/point, she has awesome mobility from her passive, and her AoE interrupts caps.

and she gets owned by any melee champ, gets bursted down by any AP.

Ranged AD champs are in a really bad spot right now on dominion.On SR, you have a team to protect you. You have space to move around. Not on Dominion. Yes, you can do well with them but they're out shined in every way, by melee or burst AP.

This weeks free rotation is really good. I got to try some characters I don't have. Urgot confirmed garbage. Didn't mind Maokai, but he didn't bring enough to the table for me to consider really good. Cassiopeia seemed mediocre. I really liked rumble. I need a good build for him to really shine though.
Yorick confirmed Dominion GOD up to 11-15minz in, then he falls off hard.

Last night every game I played had a Poppy in it. We get raped because our team forgets how to counter pick. Then scream Poppy is OP. Last game I duo queue with a friend, me Lux and him Ryze. He proceed to rape a team of Udyr/Akali/Poppy/Irelia/Garen.

CC, man, it's your friend.

yorick is kinda squishy, or his DPS falls off if you build tanky, still think chogath is better.

[Diggles]

I don't know, tossing in an Entrophy after sanguine blade makes me fairly tanky compared to other carries. I do fine. And on Kat, I get so much spell vamp I can stay alive through an entire ultimate with 3 people beating on me.

That is almost an instant ragequit lane. Kind of like Taric/Ashe.

Summoners Rift was soo yesterday.

Blitzcrank + any other knockup/stun champ

Dead before you can react.

went 1/17 on dum clock man and team still won ehehehehe

Blitzcrank + any other knockup/stun champ

Dead before you can react.

I play ryze a bunch and i laned with a good blitz crank who kept pulling into tower range and knocking them up and then i'd launch my combo on them. GG lol

[SearyxTZ]

Janna + Caitlyn bottom lane will make anyone cry


I hate playing that lane though. I am all AP carry (Annie/Brand/Cass) and win a solo lane 90% of the time, usually draw first blood.

[Massive Marc]

Hey Searyx,

Can you comment on a couple things (if its kosher),

Does Riot want or foresee Dominion being played competitively ?
Will Riot do any balancing for Dominion.
and, how do you like red99 beta so far ?

[Darksinga]

I played one game of dominion the day it released, hated it, and went back to summoner's rift/twisted ;p

[SearyxTZ]

Well it's kosher but I probably won't give answers in the way you'll want.

I am not directly involved in the things players are most interested in (game balance), and I'm not real keen on mixing work and play -- so to speak.


But anyhow-

Dominion being played competitively: I really don't know, but I'm sure we'll analyze and look at the overall player response to it. Personally I would love to see it in ranked.

Of course they will balance it.

I haven't been able to play red99 yet. Gonna jump in this weekend if there's time.

[ScaryBadAssholes]

Good move reducing 3 6300 champs to 3150. I was surprised - when I clicked the link I REALLY expected them to be 4800.

As far as dominion goes...any champ that has a high level of sustain is just too OP right now. WW, Udyr, Chogath etc.

Their innate sustain coupled with the healthpacks and run buffs is just a bit too much -- when many of those champs ALSO have innate run buffs as well.

[Knuckle]

For summoners rift I love Irelia, one of the most sustainable solo top characters and absolutely amazing mid/late game.

Yea.

And OP on dominion lol.

[Scribbles]

dominion is so dumb

[Scribbles]

literally only good part of it is if u do draft mode and troll ur own team by banning useless champions

[Diggles]

that's what normal game draft is for in SR

BAN TEEMO!

Is Phreak a total boss in the office like he leads us to believe on the forums? Also why is Shurelia leaving?

[SearyxTZ]

I didn't know she was leaving? I just looked it up. Sounds like her husband got a good job offer somewhere else (she's married), but I have no idea.



Phreak is cool. We worked in the same room back when the company was still pretty small and he had just started as an intern. Total boss? Lol yeah whatever bro... what you see in the streams with him commentating is exactly how he is. Fun guy to be around, really pro at the game (although probably not all-around better than Classick/Statikk).

[Diggles]

By boss I meant him running around the office eating cereal and talking about Teemo. I've actually played a couple games with him and Taco Storm and it was a blast.

my teams have been trolling me hard recently

http://i51.tinypic.com/10fqq6h.png

in middle game was literally 8/1/2 until last 5 minutes of game, at which point the 0/17 and 2/14 persons on my team had fed other guys so hard that i insta died erey time

[Diggles]

xerath is fun as hell.

also i did a match with a 0/31/3 teemo.

[SearyxTZ]

Yeah I like Xerath except for his root-in-place ability, which completely throws me off. I'm used to having mobility 100% of the time with my AP carries.


Played a ranked with my gurl Annie today and went 13/1/10. What's funny is that we needed every bit of that to win - such is life in the solo queue. One more win should put me back over 1500. I'm still getting the +/- 40 post reset bonus.

[SearyxTZ]

Also it kind of annoys me, purely as a player, that players have ALREADY PLAYED 200+ SOLO QUEUE GAMES since the reset which was like what.... 3 weeks ago? 4 weeks?


I've played all of 14 games. I was hoping to make a go at the top 100 again, but it's already inflating pretty fast. Voyboy at 2001 atm

[Scribbles]

when will we see new champion searyx to complement champion tryndamere

[Diggles]

If we see a searyx champ it needs a bluebie reference.
I actually was going to make a champion and post it on the forum. It sounded way too obvious of a reference but ill prolly post it here.

[Harrison]

Free vayne week lol true damage

[SearyxTZ]

haha, yeah I actually considered pushing for that at one point.


Probably wouldn't use "Searyx". My own trolling and damage to my name isn't that bad, but the other Searyx (http://www.fohguild.org/forums/retard-rickshaw/2446-searyx-supporter-child-pornography.html)? Much worse, and that's the first thing that comes up on Google. I cut my alias short to Seary on every forum I go to except this one, and tbh I can't think of a champion design that would fit with that name.

And now that I think about it, I could have suggested "Tallon" instead of Talon. This is wishful thinking though.


As has been mentioned, the Riot president played on TZ (Tryndamere, Kilithyr, Narodnika for a while, etc). He played on VZTZ for a bit too (Ryltarr, Tryndamere). And of course we played on the Discord server. If SoE hadn't released that wacky one-month permadeath server, I probably wouldn't be working here right now.

Warmog was a troll warrior on Tallon Zek (Warmog's armor).

There might be a few more subtle nods to EQ/TZ, but that's all I can think of atm.

[Diggles]

I'm considering going to Cali for my last 2 years of college, and a job at Riot looks like it'd be awesome with the amount of intern spots you have.

[Diggles]

My only other option would be Washington and a job at Bungie doesn't really pique my interest. :p

[ScaryBadAssholes]

I don't understand.....

Why does **EVERY TEAM** I get assigned to build 100% glass cannon?

It never fails. Literally every single game I play, not a single member of my team will buy a single defensive item all game.

Regardless of the map...champion their playing...champions they're playing AGAINST etc.

Then, usually, they AFK or leave around the 20 minute mark after spamming "Veigar/Brand/Morgana OP" due to having +0 health or magic resist.

God this game pisses me off so much sometimes.

The S2 prize pool is, I believe, the biggest in e-sports history (5 million), which is probably a fair indicator of how competitive it is. I don't think they run tic tac toe tournaments for that.

Gotta say...LOL and HON are both fun to play.

To me they're so different that comparing the 2 isn't really possible. They're polar opposites of the MOBA genre.

I first played HON when IT went free to play; all the shit talk it gets kept me from paying for it before then. I actually enjoyed and have been playing it since. I play LOL much more -- but playing HON seems to have definitely increased my overall LOL play.

I like the depth of the hero skills in HON. In this regard, LOL simply cannot compete. LOL was my 1st MOBA and I thought it was VERY complicated at first; yet learning HON was MORE complicated despite having now played a MOBA for over a year.

HON matches seem to be decided very quickly as well. This I definitely do NOT like. In LOL at least you have a CHANCE at a comeback even at the 30 minute mark when the score is 40-20 and you're down 3 towers. I've seen teams come back from even WORSE than that too - something I've yet to see in HON.

[ScaryBadAssholes]

I wish RIOT would release more champs like xerath, leblanc, blitz, corki etc. with higher skill caps.

These are the champs I find most fun to play. Bought Blitz day 1 of the 3150ip decrease.

SEARYX - I'm curious. Do you have access to information such as the number of who people bought Anivia / Blitz on day 1 of the IP decrease?

[SearyxTZ]

HON is a good game. DOTA2 is going to be good, too. You don't have to hate one game just because you like another one. If anything, gamers should be happy that large studios are now capitalizing on this new genre/subgenre - not to mention adopting F2P business models where they make money off skins and don't smack you with a $50 box fee up front. It's great for gamers.


I could probably get those numbers regarding sales. But I could not share them, for obvious reasons.

Riot-only skins? I haven't heard about that.

I have all of the skins, but there are no "invisible" sekret ones or anything like that. I think the Medieval Twitch one is pretty rare, PAX Cardmaster definitely is, Grey Warwick / Human Ryze, and a few others.

[Diggles]

what was it, the guy who writes/draws CAD got to the cap to create a champion with Riot, and didn't read the fine print, got all butthurt and said fuck riot and made a retarded champion for HoN?

[Diggles]

And to the Riot Only skins, i believe it's regarding skins in game that aren't accquireable/weren't released to the public that rioters flaunt. I think it was chewbaccha or whatever that started it by using winged hussar xin like 6 months before launch and was using it every game and makin peeps mad.

Since my post outing Susugam for bragging in IRC about how he is rolling new accounts on HoN to pubstomp thinking he's good was deleted for some unknown reason...(while he trolls a LEAGUE OF LEGENDS THREAD with Heroes of Newerth stupidity isn't deleted...)

HoN is fucking terrible. It failed as Pay to Play. It's failing as Free to Play. I just received an email recently saying their entire shop was reduced 66%. This is desperation and shows how badly they are failing.

The game is infested with mongoloids like the example who everyone is agreeing on, who think they're good because they're rolling new accounts to shit on the inexperienced.

HoN was shit in beta and should never have went live with its disgustingly terrible game so soon. It had a lot of potential but it was ruined by its community along with its failure to properly test before release.

I still see a scrub amateur league without real prizes. Show me where the league is big enough to compete with $5,000,000

That's a five with six zeros after it. I know numbers past forty are difficult for your to comprehend as a pizza delivery boy, but bear with me.

HoN is a joke and a failure. Your only argument is, "Look at these small-time videos of a scrub league!"

If HoN was a superior game it wouldn't be in the state it is in, a pathetic wannabe handing out mousepads in its prizes as opposed to $5,000,000. (Again, that's Five Million Dollars. A five with six zeros following it.)

I've watched some streams and vids on Dominion but can't bring myself to play it.

[ScaryBadAssholes]

So let's make a list of things that are completely RIDICULOUS and NEED TO BE FIXED BY THE START OF SEASON 2. Leave balance issues out of it, as that's more opinion-oriented. Likewise, leave Dominion and Twisted Treeline out of it.

This is about SUMMONER'S RIFT and more specifically ranked matches on that map:

No working chat service. I've been "unable to connect to chat" for more than a week now. Redownloaded and installed the entire client twice. No fixes. RIOT still telling me it's a problem on my end and nobody else is facing similar issues.

Free-week champions being playable in ranked. This needs to end by the start of season 2. It's completely ridiculous. If you don't OWN 14 champs by level 30, then you don't have the gameplay experience to play ranked anyways.

[ScaryBadAssholes]

I mean really...hire a fucking java programmer and get a working chat client please.

I'd take an entirely separate program/client for the chat service if it actually WORKED>

[SUSUGAM]

league of legends was developed with the free to play mindset, it wasnt forced because they couldnt sell their games.

12 million in initial sales for an indie game. couldnt sell their game. switched to horseshit f2p model, still making money. derp.

66% off everything in store and 20,000 players, big bucks right there, can't even afford a decent prize pool for a tourney.

Also, to the person bitching about LoL champion prices, stop being bad with your IP and learn to save, you don't need every god damn champion under the sun.

66% off doesnt actually mean anything at all... it's a gimmick to get morons to dump cash into the game, and it's working. there hasn't been a single valid argument for LoL over hon, except that a chimp can play it. that said, im not a chimp, so i can manage a few extra APM needed for HoN/dota/dota2. keep playing your fisher price shit if you like, but every top level player in both games will agree that 'competitive LoL' is a joke compared to all 3 other games.

[Diggles]

there hasn't been a single valid argument for HoN over LoL, what the fuck is the difference, except LoL has a lot more tournaments and there's a lot more at stake than a fucking mousepad with your name on it?

one game is for men, one for women. you make the call.

if you're going to keep making the same HoN IS FOR MEN argument with no proof or valid point I'm just going to keep saying we have more numbers, this argument is stupid and you're stupid.

lol britney spears has zillions more fans than john zorn, she must be way more better musics. lol she has big prize give-aways, she must be more enjoyable to listen to.

[Fists]

HoN doesn't have shitty pastel graphics, HoN is a faster paced more difficult game, HoN is more "new" account friendly (if you can be noobie friendly in MOBA's).

HoN has direct DOTA ports, HoN has tons of cash prize tournaments. From someone who played DOTA, HoN, and LOL; The only reason LoL is doing any bit better is because S2 is retarded and got DDOS'd for a month straight.

I tried both, and prefer LoL. Seems a lot more fluid than HoN. You can compare the HoN community to LoL sort of like the red vs blue p99 population.

LOL @ the new patch preview.

Are you SERIOUSLY nerfing champs and items because they're too strong on Dominion? L-M-A-O

[ScaryBadAssholes]

Dominion xp nerfed by 10% to **START**

Enjoy your 45 minute Dominion matches for 30ip L-M-A-O

They should have just raised the cost on them and made then completely unique instead of nerfing them.

Hextech is my MAIN item in my jungle Lee Sin build ... and knowing RIOT they are going to make the Hextech completely terrible AND increase the price on it.

Surely the problem wasn't champs like jax and akali on dominion -- it was the HEXTECH YALLSSS

Also -- I've never seen a single person STACK hextech's, considering the spell vamp and clicky effect ARE in fact unique.

Some times RIOT just boggles my mind.

[Diggles]

Spell Vamp is unique after this patch, right now, it's not.

That's the problem with Gunblades, right now I can stack 4 of them on Katarina or Akali and literally be unkillable.

[SearyxTZ]

Gunblade passive effect wasn't unique, so yes you could stack them. This will only really affect Dominion.

I think the actual stats nerf is pretty slight and purely based off numerical data. It will still be worth getting.

The matches will be the exact same length. Champion levels have no bearing on the length of a dominion match.

The reason XP was nerfed is because of how quickly champions leapfrog over early/mid game and into late game. This is a change that I'm rly happy is going in. I've played 100+ dominion games already and I'm pretty sick of running shit early and then having it turned around completely at the 15 minute mark because the other team has Jax Irelia and Akali.

Yeah that. You'll still be able to stack different items with spellvamp though (I think...)

With Mord I danced around the first hextech nerf by turning one of them into a Will of the Ancients

[Diggles]

yeah, that's how I adjusted with Vlad. Buy a Will, and then a revolver. 40% spellvamp

[Harrison]

Yeah, warwick stacked with gunblades = unkillable unless CC'd hard

One Q = Full hp

[SUSUGAM]

if you go in the center square first, you will win 18% more often. X owns O so easily lol

So wait...the spellvamp gun IS unique but the full hextech is NOT?

I remember back when the spellvamp gun was nerfed cuz Vlad noobs were stackin em on SR.

I **REALLY** hope they dont hit it too hard. I never see ANYONE build a Hextech on lee sin, yet it's probably his best item. Sleeper OP.

As soon as i finish my Hextech on Lee I'm basically unstoppable unless the whole team ignites me and focuses me down.

Oh well.....looks like I'm goin to play some dominion right now and stack some hextechs lawlsssss.

The reason Gunblade was never unique is it was deemed to expensive to stack in SR, but Dominion has so much money flow you can buy 4 of them no problem if you get points.

My smurf got changed to "timetobaron757" because I'm lazy. I'll prob change it to something else later, but for now its TIME TO BARON


add that if you want to play. Not on a ton lately (or afk 90% of the time)

Whats your point. I'd argue that Runescape is an incredibly successful game. Furthermore, they closely competed for the Golden Joystick Award happening now.

Runescape was/is an established game before league of legends, so again, whats your point.
