Played my first ranked game and won. Played the enxt 4 and lost thanks to a super feeding team and an afk player in 2 of those games. Can't tell you how depressed i feel. It's Starcraft 2 all over again.

What kind of "hotfix" changes the balance of the game.

Hotfix is usually reserved for on the spot fixing of game breaking bugs.

I hit 1500 ELO with one of my buds on my Birthday last saturday, it was a very awesome gift (thanks Riot!) We actually ended up going from 1400-1501 with 7-8 wins in a row! I will flaunt my war hero Janna skin all day errday'. With all that confidence from that win streak I thought it would be a good idea to play by myself.. That was a big mistake. 3-4 losses in a row with no victories solo yet. Oh well, I'm still super happy that they changed the way ranked rewards are given (by highest ELO not current.)

It's specifically to get things ready for the S2 World Finals. They want to do some balance tweaks to strengthen those champs so they hopefully see play. Rather then every match being Corki and Ez with the occasional Graves and Cait showing. But yeah, not sure why the hotfix term.

Congrats, rock that war hero skin. I've not been above 1500 since the top elo reset, currently sitting at 1462 but I've got gold in both 3v3 and 5v5 teams so I'm just playing to get that third summoner icon.

Damn, i thought Rengar was already OP. Or was it just me?

He pub/noob stomps hard. As for over the game's meta? Hell no. He was really weak.

The only rengar's i've actually had an issue with are the ones that get retardedly fed. I don't think i've ever laned against a rengar that won against me.

Hmm, yeah i guess it was just me. I think i've usually faced rengars that have been fed to death and a stun+slow when u're trying to push a lane as Kogmaw = certain death.

you expect me to spend real money on this game?

Not really though I think anyone halfway serious should spend enough to have 5 rune pages. It was more that I'm going to buy him .... with IP comment... kind of a letdown.

No I agree with you as do the people above 2100 on EUW who are banning him constantly. I kept thinking his level 1 burst was retarded but I played Tiger Udyr for the first time in a year and dear god that is some burst. The only problem is I gave up my MoveSpeed quints to do it and I'm just not sure jungle tiger is viable without them.

Yeah EUW had Regar has a top pick before the buffs, and is perma banning him now. NA was starting to value him higher. To be honest I have a hard time fully understanding it, he does have scary ganks, though I don't really think they are scarier then like Noc ganks, just a lower CD. His late game team fight presence feels really lacking to me, but maybe the ones I played were all shit.

every rengar i've played with/against has sucked, except for one who got uber fed. but any fed champ is always a PITA so i wouldnt say that counts. so far, i've been unimpressed, particularly with his laning presence.

Did u guys know that Zilean has a debuff which grants some armor to the enemy Volibear. Apparently he "hates" armored bears.

Just wanted to ask a very nooby question. If supports aren't supposed to last hit and let the adc last hit, how do they get their gold and experience? Only from assists?

Yes. There are several hidden passives like that.

For example, Shen and Akali get 1 less health or something if they are on the same team because ninjas work alone.

Assists, standing near minions for experience, Gold per 5 Items.
