A lot if the previewed changes are anything to go by. Suspect there wont be a champ left untouched.

It's going to be complete and utter chaos.

I can't wait.

Tear of the Goddess becoming a starter item is a huge pogchamp moment.

I had a dream a streamer was playing Viktor and commenting on how he got nerfed to the ground in terms of range for the new patch.

The animation for Viktor changed for he no longer carried a staff even though his character model looks more clear. His new Gravity Field looked bugged.

Then Batman came out and punched him down.

I have clawed my way out of Iron at last. Bronze IV, baby. Though weirdly I didn't have to do a promo series. It just promoted me automatically.

Definitely the most exciting finals in recent years. Suning did not go down easy (Tank Rengar in world finals? Heck yes!), but Damwon continued to be an absolute terror yet absolute joy to watch.

I got OBLITERATED by a 26/0/10 “Gold 3” Kassadin. (The latest game at the top)

I don’t even understand how he won. We were going even, then he TPed bot in a Faker style maneuver and got a Triple Kill.

It was a pre-6 TP too 0_0

And then for the rest of the game, he just stomped everyone while nobody could do a thing to him. He teleported everywhere and killed everything. And the whole team flamed me for not stopping that TP play (I was resetting to get first item).

:(

Nothing quite like an easy win being thrown because your idiot team fed Zed like he was a starving child.

Perfect and lyrics for the music are a perfect fit.

Video makes me laugh because it just demonstrates the frustration of Ranked so well...

Well, the item update has kind of screwed with my Cho'Gath game. I always build Rod Of Ages on him to start. Now it's gone, and I'm kind of scrambling for a good AP+Health replacement.

Can we add the Season 11 item updates to the 2020 bad year trope?

I'm sure we'll get used to it, eventually.

I mean aside from Rod Of Ages and Frozen Mallet being gone, I'm not having much of an issue with it. Hell, that new Sunfire Aegis thing is killer on Alistair.

I refuse to play her based on principle. She's not even a champ in my eyes, She's a lazy, shoehorned in mascot for KDA.

I like her quite a bit, since she reminds me of my high school become a popstar fantasy.

I was playing her yesterday actually, and her kit is actually really fun.

My biggest gripe is the weird floating platform she wanders around on. I'm not a fan of that design choice.

They just made me change my username. What the fuck. I've been using variants of redneck for 7 years, and now suddenly there's an issue?

Eh? Seems a bit too censor-ious

Perkz has confirmed he is leaving G2, and I am quite saddened by it. He was the core of that team, my favourite team, for so long that the two were inseparable in my mind, like Faker and SKT or Bjergsen and TSM. In terms of impact on the game, I consider him the greatest Western player - not just for his trophies, but for the talent he showed at gathering and leading a monstrously dominant team that forced adaptation from the very best, his individual overperformance in so many vital games, the courage to switch roles and the skill and ingenuity to - for a time - reshape how players all over the world viewed and played the role he had moved to.
As a G2 fan I will miss him, but as a Perkz fan, I highly doubt he is finished.

Interlude over, you may return to the nightmares of the new champions and massive item changes :)

Oh, it's been one of those nights. A night featuring...

Trolling jungles
Worthless tops
Trash Yasuo players
An easy win blown by not getting Elder

And the prize of the night, this fucking game. You would think Ashe is the issue. But no, it was that fucking Teemo. Who got a hair up his ass about not getting a gank, so he babyraged into the jungle, refused to group, let Nasus freefarm top and was a general fuckface. I started the night with 86 LP. I'm now down to 6. I fucking hate ranked.
