So two things, 1st I had the best game as Sejauni I've had probably ever just now:
And during it I managed to pick up a triple kill cleaning up a team fight(almost quadra, but darius few seconds too long before I killed him), and my only dead was because I was saving our Swain and Soraka at some point earlier. (I still think she needs buff though .) And 2nd, I've finally gotten jungling as Diana down more, since I started trying early Cata/RoA on her for it and some tanky/AP items I've been doing pretty good, even in matches I haven't won. It seems work much better than the dorans or gp10 into death cap for jungling and ganking.

you...You...Have wards?! Please marry me. ...orz *Cough* that aside.
I like to play as Senjuani I saved my team a few times Charging trough Anivia's wall Her Ulti is a really nice initiate for team fights or a great escape. I do agree that she needs a little buff, it feels so sad that she really is Underplayed while she is such a great champ. So people actually play Diana Jungle? I'm seeing a lot of Mid Diana's lately that builds quite glass cannon. How Adorable with her art rework.

As for me, classic losses at solo Q, kinda fun ARAMs though; did a 3v5 as Jarvan vs Ashe/Sivir/Fiora/Alistar/Soraka and we actually pushed them as far as the inhibitor turret, they were so happy to beat us eventually |

One thing I realized at 1400+ elo... people are smart enough that they play like pussies if the enemy jungler is Xin. Since Xin is a snowball champ, if you can't snowball, you are less effective than most other junglers even if you keep parity farm. I can't tank anything even when building full tank with 9/21/0 masteries, and had my Xin win % from 80 to 50.
Luckily, my Taric/Skarner play is very strong at that elo. 5/6 (with that 1 loss when Malph going full derp) and 3/3 respectively. Which is a godsend, since I went to 1475, dipped to 1380 because I was playing on tilt, back up to 1470, down to 1400 because I underestimated Rengar, then finally 1500. But yeah, Rengar needs a nerf bad. That instant cast W is just too stronk, allowing him to use double W on top of Q for some insane bursts. And I have no idea why people run Wriggles on this guy, since he clears jungle fine without it. All he needs is some lifesteal, which is easily solved by masteries + lifesteal runes. Allows you to rush hog into bonetooth necklace, allowing you to start accruing stacks earlier (which I like since I like the +25ms at 6). For the record build Xin depending if you're the main initiator or not. If I am, I typically go with AS reds and AD quints, going boots start, HoG into frozen mallet/merc treads core. Usually rounding it up with randuin's/hexdrinker. If not, I typically go ArPen reds + AS quints, going again boots/hog but rice blade into frozen mallet mercs. Then Frozen Heart + ghostblade for max CDR, allowing you to stick on the enemy AD carry.

just curious who's a good rengar counter in top lane?
I find he destroys most heroes with the jungle hopping burst as it's impossible to farm and not be in range of it and once he hits lvl 6 he's near impossible to successfully gank. Jax is the closest to a solid 1v1 fight but it's still iffy and i can't stop his escape.

..But if you ask me, I think Rengar was overbuffed in the hotfix, I hope they adjust it in the next couple of patches. It's not gamebreaking, but I do find him a bit over the top. |

I recall smashing a Rengar with Irelia at one point...early game was against me but I farmed enough for a youmuu's ghostblade, so 1v1s were in my favour from that point on. Picked up an oracle's a bit later, used either transcendent blades or bladesurge to pick up kills. Anyway, maybe I just got lucky, so try Jayce or Pantheon if Irelia does not fit your style.

And I had riven today who skipped a team fight throwing the game because we weren't following their "orders"(which would have let the other team free baron...) and walked away and just watched them push with GA and full hp sigh...

Malphite and Morgana are both claimed "S tier" by some players, and plus Malphite ult > Morg ult > Leona ult is a long of chain AoE CC, and morde ults ADC during this for a near sure kill, and then fight is won pretty much.

I'm not sure whether I agree or not. Sure, Karthus was nerfed, but his passive is incredibly OP, and he is a farming machine like no other. Of course, if you can shut him down, that's good and all, but even a mediocre Karthus is incredibly dangerous due to his passive in teamfights.

if this is solo q, neither karthus or soraka are particularly ban worthy. Despite Soraka having a global ulti, she has extremely low kill potential, since picking her is basically saying 'i don't want to win lane, we're just going to farm and go for late game'. Karthus is actually still decently strong, but he's fallen in popularity since his early game isn't as great as some other champs, he's skillshot reliant for a decent portion of his damage, and he's somewhat mana hungry early, although his e does help him with this. Shen is often banned, but actually if you take a look at his win percentages, they're actually below 50%. The reason being well, quite a lot of people who pick him are 'omg op' and don't know how to play him, and him ulting from top early while it may pick up a kill, it will also put him quite behind if he doesn't get those kills. Or you could put him in jungle, but he's somewhat prone to getting counterjungled if the other team's jungler's good. Morgana's pretty strong, but in my opinion I don't think she's ban-worthy (and indeed, looking at the statistics, she's fallen in ban priority overall). Alister is an extremely popular ban, and in good hands he can be a true jungle terror or support terror. Although, interestingly enough, he also has under a 50% win rate, mostly because people who pick him are often the ones who go 'omg op' and have no idea, and he's reliant on ganking, meaning if the other team plays safely early and helps their jungler counterjungle, you're going to be seeing a lvl 6 enemy jungler while your ali jungle's still only lvls 3-4.
Here's a look at the popular bans in NA this week http://www.lolking.net/charts?region...s&range=weekly

And on Morgana people thought she wasn't OP still cause of the nerfs... but if you watched the NA regional, then you'd see otherwise she was picked and banned a lot, and deciding factor in a lot matches, her ult just has WAY too much AP scaling for hitting up to 5 people. And good to see Rengar is getting nerfed, but not as extreme as the PBE changes were, and that Syndra is getting needed buffs.
