Just purchased Phoenix Quinn while it was on sale.
I'm quite enjoying Quinn top lately. I love her little harrass, passive + auto attack + Blinding Assault + Auto attack + Vault + Auto attack Not sure if I'm doing it right, but that at the moment makes me win most of my trades. But I can't play her that well in the bot lane cause her auto attack range is slightly shorter then most ADC if I remember correctly.

Spoiler for Results of OGN playoffs over last couple of days and the EU LCS Promotion series:
And the pros of various regions have openly spoken out about why Graves has returned: - He can verse Lucian better than most ADCs can, supposedly. - His mid game is strong even if his late game isn't on the same level. - With all the bruisers returning in the current meta, AD players on the pro scene don't feel safe anymore. Graves has the relative tankiness and tools to handle them. Still not convinced about Graves but the reasoning is logical. Caitlyn and Jinx get utterly destroyed by bruisers. No surprise Lucian and Graves are in virtually every game at present on the pro scene.

Also after playing the new MF, I think she is really strong and much less mana hungry than before, I think it's only a matter of time before the pros pick her up, and today I had an insane game on her considering it was a 4 vs 5 from 8 minutes with friends that we won: Quote:
And she can do well as an adc, but you have to play carefully especially vs certain supports (leona works well with her, but is really bad for her to face). And know when you're capable of all-ing for kills with her ult really well. And she works really well as a counter to Vayne. And personally I like an ADC/assassin build on Quinn lately over typical ADC build, I really like the d blade -> cutlass -> boots -> brutalizer -> IE or BotRK -> LW -> Youmu -> IE (if skipped) or Defensive item.

Summary of the sudden moves in the NA and EU LCS
The bigger ones: - C9 Hai has been hospitalized and can't go to All Stars. CLG Link will be subbing for him. - TheOddOne has stepped down as jungler for TSM and has been replaced by Amazing from the Copenhagen Wolves, who was brilliant in the last split. - Alex Ich has left Gambit Gaming. - Shiptur and Zionspartan have both joined Dignitas. - Ninjas in Pyjamas have released their LoL team, mainly comprised of ex-Lemondogs members who were at S3 world but twice failed to make it to the LCS in 2014/S4. Also, Insec has left the KT Rolster Bullets in Korea.

*sigh* Riot's just removed the normal draft queue in Oceanic server. Makes playing much harder, as it's now a choice between ranked (gets really stressful if you go on a bad streak, and people rage instantly in some cases), blind pick (please no) and team builder (most of the same problems as blind, but with a 20+ min wait time). No relaxed and fun option to practice new stuff exists down here now.

Considering I played a lot of normal draft I think I'm missing out on a lot. Never saw much trolling in it actually anyways, but I don't have a place to practice counterpicks anymore. And the community was small enough down here that I'd get chances to lane against people much better than me and learn from it, which I wouldn't otherwise get.

Removing normal draft que is the dumbest thing Riot has done. Blind pick has always been where the trolls and noobs go and people try to spamtype whatever they want and instalock.
Why draft pick is better than normals: 1. Pick Order - meaning far less instalockers and qqers when people dont get their role. 2. Counterpicking - You're not forced to play "safe", "hard to counter" champions all the time. 3. Rune setups - In blind pick you have to assume it's an ap mid and an ad top since that's more common than ad mid and ap top, but if you do get the latter and you have the wrong runes you're royally screwed. 4. It emulates ranked without the penalties to losing a game. It's by far my most played mode and for good reason. Last night I played a blind pick game for the first time in a while and I got a tryndamere top who instalocked and master yi jungle who instalocked and a ASHE mid. No fucking ap or tanks gg. Fortunately me and my friend carried extremely hard that game as graves leona (I was the leona). Graves got extremely fed and I had a total of 25 assists that game, with 1 kill and 1 death. Though it was extremely tough in the early game since master yi was afk farming for the first 15-20mins. Btw I hate feral flare with a passion in solo q. It just gives junglers even more an excuse to afk farm and not gank. Even more so since most the solo q feral fire junglers are master yi. If you're nocturne or xin zhao then I have no problems but fucking riot should delete melee carries from the game period since they are the definition of toxicity. LoL isn't dota where black king bar exists. |

Alex Ich leaving Gambit is another big surprise to me. So much is happening while I haven't been paying attention.

Lulutastic!
Who else is overjoyed with the Malph and J4 buffs? As a J4 top main I'm happy he's no longer so gimmicky. Previously he was dangerously reliant on his EQ, and landing the combo either won or lost your lane. With the incentive to build a safer, more AA centric lane with J4's shield would be great! Especially since J4 is best built as pure tank and thus falls off late game compared to most top laners.
