That feel when I totally forgot I had Fisherman Fizz. I miss the little guy.

Moxie Scrafty is best Scrafty. The next person doesn't live in the States.

GRASS-TYPES GRASS-TYPES GRASS-TYPES. These do so well against Siggy's core, since they resist Electric and most can pack a punch back. Give them a shot.

They call him the Arrow of Retribution...retribution against Mordekaiser would be swish! Unrelated side note: I should stop trying to win with this guy, as cool as he is it's not happening

He's going to take some getting used to. He's a (kinda) tanky Assassin, should be built that way. I don't see any reason to stray from these: These items give me pretty much everything I want. Nice AD and AS, spellblade, mobility, armor pen, full crit, and survivability between GA and Mercury's Treads. Plus, that's six fucking swords. The enemy might as well surrender.

Salamence. But I think a lot of people here knew that was my fave

What the fuck...?

The way you make that sound is almost offensive. But that doesn't stop them from coming! The 3.15 Patch is here, so we gotta take a look at what's going down. For those of you too lazy to look at the site, I'll throw up a summary here. Champions - General Ahri's base Mana and Mana Regen have been lifted. Fiddlesticks's Terrify doesn't fear for as long at later ranks anymore; however its mana cost dropped. Garen's Judgment no longer does reduced damage to monsters. Bring on the Jungle Garen! Lee Sin got a nerf that was probably well deserved. His Safeguard no longer protects minions or wards - only champions. Lucian took a heavy hit to his Piercing Light - range and damage both nerfed. Lulu got buffs to her faerie's damage as well as the shield strength of Help, Pix!. Pantheon's Aegis of Zeonia can now be cast on minions and monsters. Rammus received similar changes to Fiddlesticks; his Piercing Taunt was slashed in duration but in mana cost as well. Sivir got hammered so hard, she might as well go back to where she was in mid-S3. Fleet of Foot and On The Hunt took massive nerfs, and Spell Shield was lowered in duration as well. Soraka's base Armor and Movement Speed were buffed. Taric took truly outrageous nerfs (okay, not really). His Passive doesn't scale as much with Armor, and all of Shatter's numbers relating to Armor were slashed. Yasuo incoming. Champions - Ultimate Cost Reductions The following champions got the mana costs on their ultimates reduced to 100 at all ranks: Fiddlesticks Janna Lulu Rammus Champions - Insignificant Stuff The following champions received miniscule changes: Anivia (Texture Update) Brand (Conflagration bug fix) Caitlyn (running animation update) Cho'Gath (Rupture tooltip fix) Fiora (Blade Waltz bug fix) Garen (Judgment bug fix) Lissandra (Frozen Tomb bug fix) Maokai (bonus damage counter for ultimate) Poppy (ult can no longer amplify true damage) Rammus (minor Defensive Ball Curl change) Riven (running animation update) Swain (Torment can no longer amp true damage) Talon (Cutthroat can no longer amp true damage) Vayne (Condemn bug fix) Items Spirit of the Elder Lizard and Spirit of the Spectral Wraith now have the Conservation passive instead of the Bounty Hunter passive (Conservation is the passive that Spirit of the Ancient Golem has). All "Lens" Trinkets had cooldowns reduced. However, Oracle's Lens got its true sight duration slightly nerfed. All "Orb" Trinkets now grant true sight of anyone they hit for a little bit. Maps - Summoner's Rift Assists no longer scale with game time. Super Minions now provide a greater buff to other nearby minions. Maps - Howling Abyss Poro-Snax now appears in the trinket slot for everyone at the beginning of the game.General Temporary Attack Speed buffs now trigger immediately instead of after the first attack. This will probably be most notable with Elise, Tristana and Xin Zhao.Other crap Loss Prevented games will now show up as Loss Prevented instead of Defeat, fixing a past bug. The Matchmaking system has been tinkered with a bit. That's it! Yes, Mantheon changes! At least I'll want to play the Mantheon again; that is no miniscule change to that Aegis of Zeonia. Lets him block another attack or Parrrley or whatever, allows him to use it in the jungle to escape. He may be one of my go-to men in the jungle in the future. Aside from that, not a whole lot to point out other than the fact that one miniscule change would have affected me today in my game as Swain; that change would have made the difference between Riven dying once to the red buff burn or surviving with minimal HP. Anyway, not much else to say about this patch. The Fiddle / Rammus changes may shake up some things (ex. kill Fiddle support), but we'll see.

So I gave Swain a shot. The boss bird.

That feel when you manage to win a game even with someone on your team intentionally feeding/throwing.

Personally, I would recommend Bulbasaur; probably the best pokemon to "hit the ground running" with and get through the first two gym leaders with the most ease.

Not always the case, sometimes it's flat-out onesided. The loss that set off my recent 11-game losing streak featured my high-bronze/low-silver teammates against three Golds, a Platinum and an unranked 30. I was the only one my team with a kill, 3/8 as Kayle against a Plat 5 Kassadin. Back on topic, things happen in games and it's out of your control. You're in Bronze 4 now, you have plenty of time to hone your skills in games where people give a damn. Find a champ to take you out of Bronze (when I get ranked, it'll probably be Akali for me), whether it be Teemo, Aatrox, Ashe. Once you get good, you'll win more than you lose with them. Ride that train as far as you can, but make sure you have a backup plan (ex. if you get stuck at support and Thresh is banned). Ex. I like having five champs at each position, to prepare for three getting banned and the fourth taken by someone else. At top, I like to roll Garen, Teemo, Shen, Elise and Gangplank. In the jungle, I like Jax, Zac, Aatrox, Nocturne and MUNDO. My mid laners are Akali, Kayle, Lux, Master Yi and Ezreal. AD carries of choice are Vayne, Jinx, Corki, Sivir and Quinn. Supports are Taric, Thresh, Ashe, Karma and Morgana.

Go ahead and do it! I'm doing something exactly like that right now, although only Ace Members can see it. If people really want to see it, I'll release it after I get about halfway.

It's "not too late", really. A soft reset comes in February that should reset your prelims. Get some practice in before then and you should be fine!

That feel when I finally get it done after 11 straight losses. Stay classy, Kayle.

TRY THIS! Special Wall Delphox Delphox (F) @ Leftovers / Sitrus Berry Trait: Blaze / Magician EVs: 196 HP / 54 SAtk / 252 SDef Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk) - Wish - Protect - Mystical Fire / Calm Mind - Toxic / Calm Mind Huehuehue. That is all.

What Does Delphox Say? Delphox (F) @ Leftovers / Life Orb Trait: Blaze EVs: 4 Def / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Calm Mind - Flamethrower / Fire Blast - Psyshock - Shadow Ball I used to think Delphox sucked, but as it turns out it can be a lower-tier destroyer, since down there it doesn't have to deal with jerks like Heatran and Aegislash. Having 104 base speed doesn't hurt either. Anyway, while Delphox can run support using its hundred different ways to screw with the other guy and his items, it's got good stats for Special Sweeping so let's use those. Calm Mind augments Delphox's already good special stats. I personally like Flamethrower but Fire Blast hits like a truck. Psyshock lets it put a dent in Goodra, Florges or anything whose low Defense can be exposed. Shadow Ball rounds out coverage and is invaluable for dealing with Pokemon like Latios and Starmie.
