    Since i felt the occasional masochism poking me at the back of my head, i went and visited the official forums, and i think i just found my anathema.Brb seppuku.

    I got Kayle and the skin as well without doing ranked games. Pretty sure that it's any 10 games. Lots of people I know have it. Unless it was a mistake and it was only meant for those who did ranked games.

    I should probably pick up one of those that can actually snipe. I mean, sheesh, I'm doing it as Leona.
    Yes, I'm still leveling and tactics are non-existent, so that's not exactly any hall of fame thing.

    Just checked...we're talking about Judgement Kayle? I have that skin and definitely neither ever unlocked it nor did ranked matches last season...

    People are saying it was any 10 games, even co-ops last season.

    Yeah, I've got the skin as well...

    Funny thing is, I'm only level 29 and I've never bought Kayle herself. So either Riot fucked up or else Riot decided to do something very nice... without saying a word o.O
    Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and for thy possession, the ends of the earth. Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron. Thou shalt dash them in pieces, like a potter's vessel. Be wise now therefore ye kings. Be admonished ye judges of the earth. Serve the lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the son lest he be angry, and ye perish in the way, though his wrath be kindled but a little.

    Yup, I posted a statement (about 30 pages ago lol) where they said that everyone that did at least 10 matches (of all game modes except custom games) will get kayle + her new skin.

    In case of Shen, you can simply ignore him in a team fight. What will he do? Throw you a 50 dmg sword? His taunt is so expensive that even stacking CD reduction to spam it doesn't worth it. (thank you, energy...)
    His passive is terrible. It requires you to stack HP (which reduces the motives for opponents to attack you) and requires you to be attacked (what did I just said? ) to be good.

    Shen is a clear example of Riot Games lack of knowledge about game design.


    Shen used to be ridiculously OP before Riot nerfed him. Granted it was some time ago but I remember watching Shen's pretty much solo games.

    Thats what I call AD Teemo because the rest of the items I generally build are AD .

    Just got my first penta kill today with Caitlyn. Team fight was breaking out in the dead center of the map, I came in behind from their jungle and picked off Annie and Twisted Fate before they even seen me, killed Xin during Amumu's ult, got Shen as he almost dashed out of range into the bushes and then ulted Talon after he came out of his ult.

    Also anyone else like pretending they are from Brazil when a teammate starts bitching? I just started doing it, I find it hilarious.

    congratulations pentas are really something, they're not as easy as some people think.

    So he can ruin a gank in earlygame and if his enemies are stupid he might be able to stop them for just as long as an Amumu ult. I wouldn't exactly call that a very nice niche considering how generally un-tanky tanks are earlygame.

    It can backfire, as well. He can ult in, to try and save someone, only for more of the enemies teammates coming in for the gank, destroying the shen shield, killing them, and then shen finds himself in the middle of a 1v3/4/5.

    His taunt could use a small amount of range, feels so small it's hard to get more than 1-2 champions in it, even if they're all relatively close.

    Just saying that pretty much every situation I could pick Shen, I could pick a better tank for the job. His ulti pretty much requires your enemy to have overextended to make a significant difference, especially with that CD. Personally I say make his W scale down energy cost to 0 instead of cooldown and buff base values so he'll actually use it. (Outside of lanes)

    Yeah his W does need work, I don't even skill it because he's a monster tank without unless I have to solo.

    Well, just played another smurf game with my friend. Enemy garen has 3 warmogs, friendly veigar wasted about 15k gold and I'm trying to get him to just get DFG and he refuses. Enemy Karthus flashes on top of me every team fight and suicides to kill me because I'm the only one not feeding...

    Just finished a game with a 0/13 Akali and 0/7 Taric.

    YOUR COMPLAINTS ARE INVALID.

    Mainly watch Choax, TRM, Dan Dinh and Reginald (Dyrus is hilarious but his stream quality is so bad) I still stick to what I previously said, all champions released after Orianna are barely, if ever played. Not considering Riven here as she is just released.
