Anyone annoyed how ADCs can be "outplayed" on the new Rift by casters simply shifting in and out of bushes (you can's AA someone in a bush it screws you over)

they added so many new bushes now ADC's just become a serious chore...

I tried playing some ADC in ranked and honestly I felt like the British Army going against American guerrilla shooters in the Revolution. They just run in and out of bushes and kill you.

...No. One cause I only play ADC when I get autofilled and no one will swap. And two, cause I keep the bushes warded.

I feel like such a fool.

there is no Gold V anymore...

There’s no such thing... sigh...

It’s all I to IV only. My brother just told me.

I’m doing that from now on as well

It’s too much of a hassle

Oh, fun. Apparently they give out player icons in chests now. Cause when I bust my ass to get an S ranking, I really want my reward to be a PLAYER ICON.

Feels like I'm back playing Overwatch.

In y'alls opinion, what are some underrated champs?

For my own opinion, I'd have to say Malphite. This champ carried me from B1 (thanks promos) to G4 in less than a week. Both AP/Tank builds are pretty flexible and powerful, there's almost no mechanics to mess up with, and he has a decent laning phase and powerful lategame. Even if you feed your ass off in lane, a couple good ults in teamfights can win the game.

I've seen Malph quite a lot recently. He's definitely got better after the mini rework to his abilities that they made. I've heard he's really good mid into assassin champs, Zed in particular.

I'd say Elise counts as underrated. Don't see her much, but she busted AF.

I’d sad Vladimir. On paper if not always in practice, he’s essentially a super soldier.

Infinite mana, infinite healing, spammable AOE damage, super strong late with early cheese and safe laning

At 2-3 items even your forced to farm it out, the enemy’s always shocked how much firepower you suddenly bring

And the games you cheese kill people at level 5-7 are just done. Snowballs out of control, theoretically never has to back due to infinite mana and sustain. With a single kill you can gain 1-2 exp on the other laner.

...

Also, one of the most stunning Ultimates in the game. You can amplify the whole teams’s damage.

By the way, have the boards finally realized that Zed isn’t OP or worth banning?

It seems like he’s finally out of perma bam status (not that he ever really deserved it)

So it seems that people are saying Morde = Free Elo

However, I don’t think he’s a no skill champ

1. Ulting the wrong person or at the wrong time can easily cost the game (you can’t just R mindlessly in teamfights, it’s always a strategic decision and one that can cost game). In fact, it’s a bit like a Zed Ult and people can itemize against you.

2. Q and E need to be aimed properly and consistently and I think there’s a bit of luck too. You can lose entire duels by a sliver of health caused you missed 1 of 2 Qs.

3. If you go 0-1 there’s a high probability you will just Hard Feed. He’s a complete Minion when behind and one of the most feast-famine in that sense. He is PAINFUL to play from behind and you will be tilted out.

4. Top lane is a low impact lane. The game seems to be all about Dragons now. From Top lane, game often gets decided before you even do anything.

Am I the only Blitzcrank fan?

Clearly not. He's just banned so much that people don't get to play him much.

Got to try Aphelios since he's on free rotation. Not nearly as complicated as he looks. Hell, he's borderline simple to play.

After getting my Twitch Ults repeatedly juked out and wasted or alternatively, not being at the right place in key moments repeatedly due to awkward Q invis timers ...

It’s back to the most basic ADCs for me

I tell you, buying that pass for the Night And Dawn event paid off. Rolling in new skins since I bought that thing about a week ago.

Recon Teemo
Lord and Pentakill Mordekaiser
Star Guardian Lulu
Prehistoric Cho
Warring Kingdoms Jarvan
Snow Day Gnar
Urf Rider Corki
Master Arcanist Ziggs
Deathswon viktor
SSW Singed.

My roster looking fresh to death.

I don't understand. How does that pass work?

You get a string of new skins?

Is it more worth than just Direct Buys?

Shards. Lots and lots of shards. There's a boatload of quests that give you tokens and these event orbs. Said orbs always got a skin shard in them. You can buy an orb by saving up 200 of the tokens, and you get 12 tokens per win. And since I play this game too much, they just keep coming.

I decided to do a little math on the skins thing. All together, they come out to a combined 11370 RP. That's $85 worth of RP. So with this pass, I saved $65. It really is a deal.

I haven't gotten a skin in a long time.

The skins I'm most interested in right now (I usually only want skins for champs I play a lot):

Championship Ashe (for NA)

Night King Vladimir

Meowkai (SOOOOOO adorable)

Dread Knight Nasus

Warden Nautilus

Sweeper Rammus

However, for a lot of characters I play without skin normally because the Classic is quite good.

I've been playing with High Noon Ashe a lot recently. It's probably my favourite skin so far for her.

I wish I had that one too.

However, I really like the blonde/gold hair colour of Championship.
