  1. Man, this is cool. The Blue Lucian one looks especially badass
  2. I dig Mewtwo. Was kinda my guilty pleasure in Melee, so I'm happy that there's so much stuff that has carried over from Melee to new smash.
  3. You had a pretty solid list but I've never seen Ezreal first-build Infinity Edge as he isn't as autoattack-reliant. Manamune first is what's "in" right now. I also edited your list a wee bit based on research on build preferences.
  4. No, because it's more or less what I did as well
  5. Kk, slow down here. There's too many things that are funky with this. Not every ADC builds IE first; in fact, I'd say it's roughly half, maybe less than that. Many build Triforce, Blade, or even Bloodthirster first (the last one being in Draven's case sometimes due to synergy between Life Steal and Spinning Axe). 10 autoattacks in a lane trade? That's more like a fight, normal trades with these kinds of items are about 3-4 autos tops. But anyway Bork has Attack Speed, so it would get out the attacks faster (10 for the champ with BoRK, about 6-7 for someone with IE). 2 of those 7 attacks for the IE user would crit, and yes, for decent damage, but Bork would usually still win out due to the Life Steal and %health Passive (which, of course, applies Life Steal) until the abilities used come into account. From there moreso than ever it is largely dependent on the champion in question, NOT what they build. Vayne actually does trade early when the situation is advantageous. Granted, those situations don't come often but in short trades, depending on the abilities from the opposing ADC and whether or not she avoids them, she can outmuscle a lot of the bot lane meta in that fashion, thanks to Silver Bolts and Tumble's autoattack reset, which is something that every other ADC not named Sivir wishes they had.
  6. Trist scales better with AD now due to her new Explosive Charge. She isn't totally a right-click-and-win champion anymore, but you can build her as such still. Just don't expect your E to do too much late-game. She's not totally the dream hyper-carry like the good ol' days - but then again, that doesn't stop champs like Lucian to itemize toward the late game hyper carry style build typical of champs like Vayne. But in Trist's case that's some mid-game power out the window. Depends on whether or not you can make the late-game-favoring investments worth it.
  7. Looks alright to me, although Randuin's would be better than Warmog's so that he had better sticking power, especially since four of them don't have an escape besides the Sivir ult.
  8. It's not the worst. In fact it gives more DPS than the Bloodthirster while being 300G cheaper. But in many cases it's better to do some tank-shredding with Bork, or stay healthy with the Bloodthirster's increased life steal and overheal. That said it's not exactly an item that ADCs will flock to. Corki could probably use it decently due to him being more spell heavy than most ADCs, but I've never tried it - perhaps I should later today. I see it most often on Ezreal, Lucian, Varus and Ashe.
  9. How'd that Lee lose top lane so hard? Well, don't axe me...
  10. Don't be afraid to replace bloodthirster with blade of the ruined king if you are facing a tankier team. Not even four tanks - just two is enough that you should make the switch if you got something like Nunu and Leona that you have to deal with.
  11. North America LoL server is down. So no, it's not your connection.

    Amiibos!

    I have Yoshi, Samus, Sheik and Captain Falcon, and I want the Golden Mario. It's reeeeeeeally hard to fight the desire to collect them all... (PS, Golden Mario is a Walmart exclusive.) EDIT: I don't have Shulk or Golden Mario. oops.
  14. 'Ey, I really understand that you want me to come to your college. But spamming my inbox with all the wonderful things about your campus ain't helping any.

  15. I've got too many that I want to see, but can't choose one between them. Wolf O'Donnell. Reyn or Fiora from Xenoblade. Sagi or Kalas from Baten Kaitos. Hector, Ephraim, Leif or Shiida from Fire Emblem. Toad. Impa. Zoda from F-Zero. Blaziken Some third party secret wishes (despite the slim chances of them making their way in): Snake Travis Touchdown from No More Heroes. Zael from The Last Story.
  16. Nah, Sona got nerfed enough that she shouldn't be too much of an issue anymore. Similar to Ryze and I guess Kassadin as well. After day one, here are the top 10 champions I recommend banning: Nidalee. I've seen the spears one-shot carries. The heal's huge AP ratio is overwhelming, too. If enemy team gets her you should lose. Shaco. Nevermind the boxes, it's the stealth jumps and constant knives with 120% AP ratio that make Shaco such a strong champ. LeBlanc. Basically Kassadin 2.0; nearly impossible to catch and can 100-0 you very quickly. A huge pain in the ass. Hecarim. Homeguard TP almost every minute. Rampage gives insane amounts of damage, Spirit of Dread means Rampage heals him. Dr. Mundo. Sadism only has 4 seconds of downtime each cast. Cleavers are difficult to escape once one lands. Irelia. Super bursty, Hiten Style stays on forever, passive lets her almost ignore crowd control entirely with Merc Treads. Morgana. One of the few who can chain hard CC (Dark Binding). Black Shield can be on numerous teammates at once. Urgot. At about levels 5-9 Urgot can drop any one champ he hits with his acid, due to the Acid Hunter followup spam. Lux. Almost impossible to end the game against. One snare generally means death to 2+ members of the enemy team. Lucian. Basially an AD Kassadin, who gets a reset on his dash whenever he shoots something. Very hard to catch.
  17. I was having WAY too much fun this game... Uh, uh, I lo - I love that MONEY
  18. This is pretty epic. Fun fact: In last year's URF login, there were four ultimate abilities shown - Trueshot Barrage, Noxious Trap, Final Spark, and Requiem (still red as this was before Karthus's VU). There are only two in this year's login, from what can be seen - The Culling, and Super Mega Death Rocket!. Oh, and you can download the URF 2015 login music, "Welcome to Planet Urf", here.
  19. Were you not around for the original run of URF? Everyone was secretly hoping that NURF was not a real thing and that the old URF was coming back - sure enough, the old URF we knew and loved came back.
  20. Hah! Y'all just got styled.

  21. Re-enter the URL of the YouTube video without the "&feature=youtu.be" on the end. The forums will then be able to pick up the YouTube video
  22. The Ultra Rapid Fire featured game mode from last year is now live on NA!

  23. That was fake. Reddit can be like that. It's probably the most unreliable source for League news since WhyRenektonWhy left EDIT: Looks like the URF from last year!
  24. Seems they had an "accident". An "energy drink spill" caused a "power outage" that "sabotaged" the forthcoming N.U.R.F game mode. Speculate away while I go pick up my next badge.
