    except that this item gives more gold in jungle so it will always be better than lich bane

    Great argument, I guess you also buy the blue support item because it gives more gold, therefore it is better than other items?

    Before you reply again, do the math that I asked you to in previous post.

    Blue support item is fine because it encourages you to poke and have lane presence, but my gripe with it is that I never want to upgrade it because Frost Queen's is pretty eh. Starting with it and getting talisman later is clutch tho.

    Well, if you're going to play an AP jungle it's your only option anyway. So either don't play AP junglers or buy it. I've played it with ekko and nunu and it was alright. It's not just the damage, but more utility focussed. Mana hungry jungles like diana and others can still give blue to the midlaner and not fall behind in clearspeed because they run out of mana themselves.

    Why such a harsh tone

    Just a bad mood, don't mind that.

    And you're right about that it's your only option with the handful of ap junglers which don't suck, but that's because magus got removed.

    My point is, that for damage you will allways be better off by any other sheen item or just another item at all, and if your jungler doesn't have a terribly weak clearing you can just buy upgraded smite and buy other pieces of the kit. Furthermore, for majority of decent junglers the pink smite item will minimize their sustain problems. This means that in many cases you can buy pink smite item into whatever ap item you want and be better off than if you bought runeglaive. The only problem with doing this is that you won't have many slots for wards and smaller items. Pretty much the only character which this item fits perfectly for is Diana, because of her strong base dmg. This allows her to get a bit less ap/scaling with runeglaive and still have a strong mid game.

    Another option would be to buy runeglaive then sell it later and buy lichbane, but most games won't get that far.

    I'm pretty sure if the item was strong enough to hold it's own we would already see pros experimenting with it. It's getting a small buff in one of the upcoming patches, so I think I'll wait for that buff before I give it a go.

    Wasn't there a guy here who liked Gravity from the beginning of the split? Props to him.

    i did but i thought TL would be doing better. gravity's the best Bo1 team in NA


    wrote this earlier- anyhow, right now i think regular season could easily end with GV at the top, then TSM and TL, then DIG/CLG/TIP

    i'd like to see TDK finish higher, i think they have a high potential cap there, but missing the first half of the season is rough. T8 and NME are essentially spoilers now, and don't let's talk about C9


    getting back to GV, my main concern is how they hold up in Bo3 or Bo5- TSM, for example, has a history of losing the first game in a series and looking terrible, then coming back much better adjusted. i'm not too worried for GV, but it's the main thing yet to be seen imo. TSM, TL, and CLG all suffer from the same basic problem for me, which is inconsistent shotcalling and teamplay. DIG and TIP to a lesser extent, but TIP is like the best team in the west with a snowball and then if one guy on the team doesn't show up the whole team fails- much more player reliant.

    meanwhile the DIG in my mind is a solid contender for 5th-ish, middle of the pack, yunno, only it's because of their consistency. i feel like they won more games off good teams throwing than off their own great play, but that may be my bias speaking. i don't keep as close track of NA, too



    EU, then, would break my heart if FNC lost now. they've already won like 13 times in 12 games, you can't break the streak. it'd be cruel ):

    aside from my boys, H2K and OG are obvious. giants are solid, i've never liked UOL, and SK and GMB both looked like they were on upswings (GMB's is more interesting i'd say- SK's only works til Candypanda remembers how Bane Shift he is). i keep expecting EL to come together and start winning games, but they don't seem to know how to do that. and ROC is finally looking worthwhile. godbless.

    oh and CWrip



    at the end of all of this, i will insert my heartfelt opinion that if a team wishes to play AP ezreal, they might consider banning sivir.

    Was probably me. Gravity is wrecking and my other boys, Elements, are being themselves (professional throwers).

    Talon's alright, but he's just out-classed by assassins that are much safer. Zed, LeBlanc, Ekko, and Ahri can all 100-0 someone and have reliable escape mechanics for when they're done their job. This lets them stick around to deal damage and contribute to fights after their primary burst is expended. Talon on the other hand uses his main escape tool, his ult, as part of his burst, so once he's done blowing someone up he pretty much dies on the spot. Not to mention the other assassins have an easier lane phase due to their amazing mobility, so it's easier for them to get snowballing.

    what i hear you saying is that he'd be ok if there was literally no other champion in the game that did anything like what he does.

    except there are several.
