Sorry? :P


I called Talon "Crapon" for 6 months straight.

I guess it's just natural for AP mid mains.

If you wanna be a troll player, you should play Anivia. You can really mess with your team by using her ice wall.


But her burst is funny when the other player thinks she's crap.

I remember this Yi who thought he could kill me by standing on my R and getting hit by the Q-E combo.

In games I like finding the tryhards and robbing them of their streaks. It's one of the sadistic pleasures I've come to embrace.

Ah, yeah, don't blame ya. Talons are those guys' natural predators :P

Although they have a much better fighting chance since the silence on his E was removed. I remember being mad at that, but when I played again things hadn't changed a lot, so meh.

But in all seriousness though I like champions like Vi. Their aggressive style is a plus for me as I like tanking, but I'm comfortable taking more defensive roles if need be.

Eh, I like his playstyle more than anything else. He's one of the few assassins I enjoy playing, since I tend to go mostly for bruiser types nowadays. Some other favorites of mine are Mordekaiser (pre-rework; haven't tried him since), Olaf and Blitzcrank (I only play Blitz with my brother, but whenever we go Blitzcrank Graves it's a lot of fun).

Pre-rework he was a monster. Made my first pentakill with him. No CC or dashes/jumps, but his area damage was pretty damn good and you could push with ease.

Not to mention the ultimate. That thing won me some games by itself.

If anyone is interested in fighting alongside my Tom Cruise Lestat/Vladimir character I'll be in the game on most weekdays in the afternoon Pacific Time (I almost exclusively play Vlad now).

Personally I'd be very interested in playing a Normal Blind pick game with a bunch of NSers.

I've taken to binge LOL-ing over binge-drinking in my off hours from law school (mass drinking creates too much of a headache and then going to lectures is an even greater nightmare)

Well distance I can't really say, but your base damage and minion health combined with the 5% of AP as auto damage mastery makes it so that your auto damage scales fairly similarly with the minions hp, so whenever the minion health bar gets to a certain point you should be killing it.

Furthermore most ranged APs have built in waveclear so help in CSing, I can't really think of any ranged AP champs without some form of waveclear or farming assist.


Ah I see...

I've been practicing with Vladimir repeatedly and am now getting a bit better at it. Assuming I don't get bullied out of lane (unfortunately that does happen especially when I get matched against an aggressive Riven or Renekton), I can generally get 50+ farm at the 10 minute mark now and without over-pushing.

I am still surprised Vladimir isn't popular. I mean COME ON! You can buy the Marquis skin and play and fight as a Tom Cruise Lestat character! There's just nothing more epic!

I miss that random match where it was Vladimir against Vladimir. Most epic thing ever. It was Marquis Vladimir vs Blood Lord Vladimir. Some SERIOUSLY epic duel, I wish I had recorded it. The blood was flying around everywhere. It was Lestat/Alucard vs Dracula.


Vlad is a pretty favoured character of mine actually (most played top laner this season), and CSing is a big weakness of his actually. You're supposed to CS with his E and Q, but you're also supposed to use that to trade, which is one of his primary weaknesses. His auto attack animation is downright infuriating to CS with though. If you can CS with Vlad or Swain, you can pretty much CS with anyone.

Pre rework he was a terrible champion.

Bullshit shield, bullshit healing, bullshit damage and bullshit ultimate. Absolutely unfun to play against.

But then when you played him, you got kited to death. :<

I hated pre-rework Morde with a passion.

If anyone wants to add me, I play as Corentyne.

NA/Gold V/Jungle main/Baddie.

I'm on a lot but don't play much anymore, I played a lot more last season.

I liked him pre-rework better (though again I admit I haven't played him post-rework). If you hated being kited to death I figure it's even worse now that your poke isn't worth a damn. But anyway, let's agree to disagree there. I'm just sad he's gone. :c

Regarding the whole adding frenzy, I play in LAN, so, can't pitch in there. :P

hmmm... you can only make a ranked team right?

The problem is that I can't access ranked because I don't have 16 champions and only recently hit 30 (I blew most of my funds on Rune experimentation and a handful of expensive champions)

Just play normals with other 4 NS dudes. It's essentially the same, except with blind pick and less raging. :P

Do you have any of the skins?

I only play him Tom Cruise/Lestat mode.

I found the CS-ing very difficult at first but now assuming I can stay in line without being pushed to tower or dying I can get slightly over 50 farms in 10 minutes and at the elo I'm playing at its working pretty well. I use auto-attacks to last hit while selectively using E to back me up when I miss. Q is saved for harass but at higher levels or when I'm low on health I start using it on minions too to farm. If he tries to melee me I just step back and Q him.

I find that so long as I don't get pushed out of lane or killed and trade evenly, Vladimir becomes pretty strong late game. The problem is that if I get a strong enemy pick like Riven its very hard. How well I do has a lot to do with how well I can predict the other guy's movements. I find Riven very hard to anticipate and her attacks do too much damage.

I don't play ranked solo, anyways. Only in a team or duo, since either I end up last pick or someone takes mid, I can both with my partner and be support.

I used to ADC almost exclusively but now I suck at it, dunno. For some reason, I can't kite or or b walk well anymore.

The problem with ranked is that people get really fucking toxic.

Especially golds. My fucking god.

Then again that's the experience I have, and I play in LAN, not NA, so things may differ over there. -shrug-

I've found ADC really really hard (even if I farm up, I can't deal all that much damage because I can't kite very well, if I get in range I just die haha)
