League of Legends Tournament

I also still think we should ban certain champions by default, mainly Evelynn, that character just makes matches that less fun.

Eve is very easy to counter. She's pretty squishy and Oracles' passively negates her stealth.

The problem with just relying on oracle is that it has a relatively short range, you need to react instantly if you are going to get her before she globals your squishy, gets massive health, AD and MS and wipes your team. Shes a tough champ to counter at low to mid skill levels. I'm not voting for her to be banned (yet) but she is one of the more... obnoxious champions.

Also , I agree that while eve is easy to counter , she does make games alot less fun.

Only hero I could see being an instant mandatory ban would be Twisted Fate. Hey check it out we are beating the other team 50-3 and we are up 6 towers to 0, Oh wait TF just backdoored and won the game >.< lol. Obviously an overexaggeration but god damn i hate that mother fucker :P

[t3hj0j0]

If you see a destiny pop up on your debuff bars, and see TF pop up in your base... bp, kill his ass, and go back to pushing. It is annoying, but TF's squishiness makes up for it.

[SoulJnr]

We have a full 5v5 Premade team ready (US)
SoulJnr - lvl30
Jvloogle - lvl30
Dalakohs - lvl30
Phaceroll11 - lvl30
Overiide - lvl30

and we are SHARK BAIT HO HAHA

[thedreadlobster]

Problem with hitting BP to go back to your base is, what happens if you are mid team fight? you are just gonna bail on your team possibly allowing the other team to get a quad and ending the game there? And even if you weren't in a dire situation where you were able to bluepill back, his ults cast time is extremely fast, Ult in and run away before you can get close to done with your B cast lol. I'm not saying that the hero is a god, but i am saying he can backdoor and completely avoid death if done right.

[Duronos]

I have 2 people (including me) for 5v5 team so far (EU):

(me)Tizzlefix-lvl 10
Greenee007-lvl 10

If anyone wants to join the team who isn't level 30 please feel free.

[Hatelust]

Only tank I can see being banned is Shen (talking global bans here) because of "dat ult". Besides that, in this kind of tourny, tanks aren't really going to make or break a team. Though, I can see your worries.

Come on people, we have 11 pages of the league thread, and we don't even have 1 of this thread, I know their are more LoL players out there, come on, compete, even if it's just for the prizes!

I understand people's hate for shens ult, but, if you make the choice to ban him becasue of his ult, then you should band TF, Panth, and Tele, as they all do the same thing. This isn't out of animosity because shen is one of my mains, just a balance suggestion

[hellgrazer]

Ok so i have a 5v5 premade team also on EU side.
Georgerock-Level 30
HydanX- Level 30
Shiust- Level 30
Etrium- Level 30
Daryus3- Level 30

Just please, don't go globally banning any champions. At all.
Currently, there is no such thing as "unbalanced champions". There are some that are better, some that are borderline unplayable. But there is no one champion that is simply better than everything else. Period. There are just some champions that require you to change your build around, but in exchange you completely negate 1/5th of the enemy team.

I'm going to strongly disagree. Some of the tank dps heroes are not balanced very well imo, doing near as much damage as a squishy dps, and is extremely hard to take down. Xin Zhou and Jarvan IV. Evelynn is just plain unbalanced and I'll argue that to the death. Riot has even stated that trying to balance stealth isn't working, an entire team should have to spend copious amounts of extra gold just because of one hero on the opposing side.

On topic: needs more people to sign up.

Yes, Eve is severely unbalanced. Not like 800g for a potion that lasts until you die (which theoretically means the potion can last forever) is unbalanced, right? Not only does Oracle's counter Eve, but so does Vision Wards, which are really cheap. Eve is EASILY countered by Oracle's. Eve is pretty damn squishy and Oracle's gives more than enough warning time before Eve smacks you with Ravage.

[Artaius]

1) 400g
2) The only extra gold you should be paying for is some vision wards from 1-~11, otherwise your tanks/supports should be buying oracles just to knock out wards.
3) A decent comp., and a decent player can easily counter an Eve, just by only last hitting and not pushing your lane at all.
4) Slightly reducing your farm by playing closer to your turret completely destroys an Eve, who already has a pretty bad late game.
I do agree on the tanky dps part though, if they build correctly.

[Trydene]

I'm too nervous to sign up for this xD but oh well

Some quotes directly from League of Legends developers...
"It's not like Evelynn where the champion existing makes everyone completely hate life, at least AFAIK."

A big long post about how Riot is wanting to change stealth.
"Current Analysis: Stealth is frustrating due to the fact that MoBA's are essentially RTS games. Scouting for information and advantage is one of the most powerful abilities anyone can have. Any mechanic that grants scouting while also hiding equivalent information from the enemy with no counters is at its core, insane advantage.

Secondary Analysis: Stealth characters right now, aren't frustrating until they can 1 v 1 you. Once they reach the power level where they can 1 v 1 you, Stealth characters are essentially unstoppable unless the player involved is far lower in skill."

It isnt the character itself that is unbalanced , its the stealth mechanic. Honestly , in all the games i can remember against evelynn i only lost 1 (With my premade team ofc). Just dont overexted when shes missing. Not allowing her to gank will make her essentially useless. Also , in mid-late game when trying to do baron or trying to set up a gank , if one of your teammates have oracle then she can't scout you.

Furthermore , if you ward properly , even IF she does scout you , you will see her team coming before they can actually gank you.
You could try to also harass her alot in early game and deny her experience so that even if she does go to gank at some point , she wont be as effective cause she is lower level.

Lastly , Twitch has stealth too , why is no1 complaining about him? o.O
