Played 9 [Well 8 and a half since once was a 4v5 that ended before 20] games todaySo here's a
thought-dump:1: Nasus is stupid. Literally every game had a Nasus and the game revolved around putting him down or him going out of control. This is literally League of Nasus right now. Games where there was a Nasus mirror the better Nasus won the entire game. Example; the Vlad game; where Nasus was very quickly taking 1/4 of my HP with a single Q.
2: Vladimir is pretty good with new WotA; despite the mana regen. It's cheapness is great; and CDR is a godsend. Just... can't stop Nasus farming.
3: Lulu support gotta go fast
4: Nocturne is pretty good; although I had a pretty bad start with him. He actually gets enough gold to have both durabilty and damage at the same time; which he never had before.
5: Kayle support kinda works. Helps I got stupid fed and became a normal Kayle with Shurelia's and Sightstone though.
6: Toplane Lulu makes people cry. I made a Tryndamere hurt so bad he laneswapped with an Ahri. IK died to the Ahri twice; once due to her showing up and catching me off-guard at middle HP; and again due to a horribly played 1v1 which involved missed Glitterlances; sheilding a creep; and mistiming my flash over her charm for the lasthit so I flashed INTO the Charm [Ahri lived with 30 hp despite all these misplays].
When I 1v1'ed Ahri and didn't screw up she all chatted 'So OP.' So yeah; I made a Tryndamere run for mommy and an Ahri cry. With Lulu top.
7: Xin Zhao is a man. I had literally Murphy's Law earlygame; but then got 2 500 gold shutdowns at once; and because I had been arming; suddenly became THE JUGGERNAUGHT. I went to that score from 0/5/1.
8: Hecarim is alright. The real problem in the Hecarim game is
SHYVANA IS COMPLETELY BROKEN and the team kinda fed and failed hard. I mean it about Shyvana too.
9: Rengar is pretty good too. I'm just not great at him in the later parts of the game; and the enemy duo botlane Nasus despite being Lv 4 while I was 6 [And killed him] ended up with a cubic buttload of farm; while ours; which was toplane didn't even get half of his; despite me killing Riven for FB. We lost because of the Nasus difference.
10: Loads of people seem to be playing Vi. Not impressed by Vis so far.
11: Seen 1 Nidalee [Mid] who stomped; and 1 Nidalee [Support] who sucked hard and got 4 shot by my Xin despite winning lane pretty well.
12: I don't get how Jungle Mantheon got so fed with fre wards everywhere in the Nocturne game. However it leaves me hopeful yet for Maokai and Pantheon himself.
13: New Taric deals too much damage with his combo. Vayne was losing like 70% of her HP.
