There's smartcast, and there's smartcast + selfcast. Just rebind your keys to actual smartcast, not the one that has selfcast as well.

Whoop. I didn't realize there was "smartcast + selfcast" option. First time I heard someone using it, too.

[Eisdrache]

Holy. I never realized that there were different smart cast options.

[Kafriel]

Surprisingly enough, I didn't know about it either until DK mentioned it

[Khu]

Diana is out

[Kreceir]

Did anyone had the chance to play with her?
if tried it for like 3 matches already but diana gets Instant locked all the bloody time

If you played her, how is she as a jungler / solo top.

[Waven]

Only seen her a couple of times. Similar to the old akali when she was op - Snowballs like crazy. Maybe a bit weaker in teamfights though, goes down faster with some focus due to no twilight shroud or equal def spell.

I only played her jungle in bots so far, but her clear times, and hp after clearing w/boots start even is very good, though her pre-6 ganks are kinda of weak since you don't have a gapcloser. Her w is simply amazing for jungling.

[EroKing]

Starting to get the hang of Jax, got 2 quadra kills as well

[Kreceir]

Really nice that you won that 4 vs 5 match
I'm surprised that the other team didn't have a tank / support even though its a normal match.

[DragoonKain3]

Good job. Just minor nitpick.... instead of 2nd IE, Tri-force for the same price works wonders on him since his empower pretty much guarantees sheen proc every time its up.

So according Xypherous's recent posts, that are being a little bit intentionally vague, but it's pretty clear Riot is considering a big change the way penetration in calculated in S3

That's a rules change.

This can only mean, reversing the penetration calculation so that pen% and flat pen have better synergy than they do currently.

[Skane]

Well that would certainly kill a lot of bruisers.

Heh.

[-Sho-]

Rengar Update PBE + more

Looks like OP champ but what is certain is the skin is 200% OP WW's bro !

[Kreceir]

Loving Rengar's skin.
When i heard Rengar i was kinda hoping for a certain Purple ghost
Liking the model update for Katarina.
Now i just have to wait for Soraka's rework.

[Kyero Fox]

He looks sick, but that passive may be a bit OP.. FOR good players.

[Kreceir]

i assume that Rengar might be quite the jungler type of Champion.
Seeing that his passive jump to a target when he's in a bush.
I can see why people think its quite Op to say at least, The gank potential are quite great.
And can be quite the chaser when he pops his ulti.

[DragoonKain3]

Hmm... they're reverting the penetration formula? They switched them before for good reason, because calculating % before flat like it was originally made people complain that buying resistances was useless.

I wonder then if they're going to buff MR items. Because really, its AP that uses flat pen the most, with mpen marks + sorc shoes (on top of abyssal being really popular as first item). Now getting void staff on top of that as well? Putting % before that means up to 95 MR is reduced to zero, or if you've amumu/fiddle in your team, 134 MR with one or 173 MR with both.

Of course, it would make haunting guise more popular (shudders at the though of AP carry with Guise + Abyssal + sorc shoes + voidstaff), but I hope they really test the conversion back thoroughly before putting it live.

Heh.

you think assassins will dominate brusiers that badly with that change?

He reminds more of one of the leonin(lion-humanoid) race from MTG, than a were-wolf, but maybe that's just me .

Well the bigger issue Xypherous claimed was back then, that issue was really not the system, but the fact that Last Whisper gave +40% attack speed AND +40% armor penetration making it + Brutalizer a bit absurd and great on everyone.

Though I am not sure how they consider how it will effect the MR front hmmm.

Every single time a new champion gets released people are crying OP here OP there.
Riot hasn't even released him live and he's out on PBE for only a day or two.
