Hey folks, so Reds are hinting that Winged Xin Zhao is coming out this week. Along with an "All-You-Can-Eat-BBQ Chamber".

So, exciting times. Check out the topic here -- http://na.leagueoflegends.com/board/....php?t=1049007

Aside from that, League of Legends was just nominated for the Golden Joystick award in best "Free-2-Play" game. You folks need to hop on that and vote for the game:

Last year when LoL won that award, they celebrated by giving every account a free rune page. SO GET ON THAT!

I agree with their decesion. It's not really a buff at that. His armor shred attack is currently bugged -- the same for all armor shreders like Wukong and Kayle. They're fixing that to do what it was originally intending to do, as seen on the tooltip.

They did this with Teemo's mushrooms, while they nerfed the cooldown rate and damage. But fixed another portion so it correctly did what the previous tooltip stated and called it a buff.

His nerf is going to get reevaluated after they see the change on J4 with his correctly working shred.

Prepare to be disappointed.

Ahh, I didn't know they were just fixing the armor reduction aspect (the Twitter message did not convey that whatsoever). I take it they're doing that for all champs with an armor reduction ability?

Haha, yeah. I still haven't played any ranked games, so if any of this excitement is for season-end rewards, I'm already outta luck.

And there's this really neat thing called a "redtracker" so you don't have to rely on quotes or ditch through 120page topics. It's easier to read about the excitement here -- http://clgaming.net/redtracker/topic/10571/?l=en&p=1 .

Everyone but Urgot, apparently.

I really hate Master Yi. It's such bullshit that his ultimate's CD also refreshes if he gets a kill while it's active. The other skills I'd get, but not the ultimate. Pretty much can't do shit if your team doesn't have a ton of CC.

Needless to say I had 2 awful games tonight. Laned with an idiot Lux who would get into fights, then we'd all try to help and they'd kill 4 of us. I couldn't solo top since I was Maokai and against Galio. The next game I tried Galio solo top, fed their Yi 3 cheap kills. Then our Kat fed him even more.

So they announced their season-end rewards. I was really considering doing all 10 ranked games duo queue with a friend tonight until they announced them. But now... yeah, not so much. Apparently it's gonna last until late August too, so no real rush.

Additionally, after your stats have been archived, and all players that are currently holding a tiered rating (bronze, gold, silver, or platinum) in our ladder rankings will receive the following additional rewards: Bronze-rated players will receive a bronze banner in their summoner profile. Silver-rated players will have their summoner icon framed in silver and receive a silver banner in their summoner profile. Gold-rated players will have their summoner icon framed in gold and will receive a special skin for Jarvan IV, a gold banner in their summoner profile, and a gold forum badge. Platinum-rated players will have their summoner icon framed in platinum and will receive a special skin for Jarvan IV, a platinum banner in their summoner profile, and a platinum forum badge.

I use their forums a lot, but I'd never be able to get a forum badge. I also rather like Jarvan IV, but FAR from a 1800elo player. Heh, if I'm lucky, I'll be able to pick up a Bronze Banner for my in-game profile. Go-me.

yay silver

strictly as irelia too

i really don't mind jarvan anymore. just a solid character, nothing to complain about

My internet has been screwy the last few days, so I havent been playing. Doing Minecraft instead.

I got my first triple kill in ranked as Singed yesterday. 3 people chasing me after a teamfight when I have a rylai's and my ult popped lolz.

I love playing Singed so much, but absolutely hate seeing him on the enemy team. He's one of those champs that you cant ignore, yet if you try to do anything against him you get wrecked.

Totally agree. That's why I've been playing him whenever I can lately, because I hate when he's on the other team.

It's not that his ultimate is OP, it's just dumb that one of it's abilities (refreshing ability cooldowns when getting a kill) applies to the ability itself. Xin's W doesn't reduce it's cooldown when it's activated.

characters like Yi are just vicious counters to certain team compositions. but i can't really imagine a team rolling with no cc.

Kat's passive does the same thing. She gets cooldowns with assists and kills.

and trist, and irelia

By far the most annoying of them all.

Derp, I ulted, got an assist and then ulted again five seconds later.

Kat's ult is at least a channel so it can be stopped. Also, you can just walk away from it. You can't walk away from Yi.

On the team I was with, all we had were Galio's ult and Lux's snare.

But that's a passive ability, so it makes sense for all her other abilities to be benefited by it. Yi is just so annoying because he can use it again immediately after getting a kill. At least make it so the ult only refreshes by half per kill.

Also, you need to help me play Minecraft. I can play it for free for a few weeks, I have no idea what I'm doing. I was smacking pigs and sheep with seeds.

After getting tired of being so salty all the time playing HoN, I decided to give LoL a shot and am loving it so far. Same core gameplay, without many of the frustrations I had with bad games in HoN. Still can have the same bad games here, but they just don't annoy me as much as I can still progress with items and not be completely hosed.

Feel free to add me (halfbent), have been getting a few games in during the evenings lately.

Dominion announcement. Looks like it could be fun.
