and you gotta run flash because everyone else does.

that's just the competitive meta-game. pros do it, so I just follow suite.

If the pros played while bungee jumping to have the maximum adrenaline all the time, would you too?

Your reasoning is

I use Flash because I suck and I need to get out of shitty situations fast.

Even though my flash isn't usually ready when I get ganked or am about to die.

So, then you really have flash for no reason.

It saves me once, but then I die 3 times in the 4 minutes in takes to cool down.

Flash is the most useful spell in the game, I use it on every champ I play because of it's capabilities as both an offensive and defensive spell, especially as an AP carry like Karthus or Annie.

Also, Caitlyn's earlygame -_-, a champ designed to shut her lane down early on then sit on her ass and twiddle her thumbs later because she doesnt do any damage lategame is pretty retarded IMO.

Caitlyn needs a buff BAD. Honestly if they'd lower her range and gave her an actual steroid Id be fine with that.

Flash doesnt offer as much as ghost, but is the most un counterable ability in the game, because the only way to counter flash is with another flash. You can stop ghost with exhaust, you can stop heal with ignite, you can stop clarity by just beating the shit out of someone, fortify by running, rally by killing it, revive by just offing the dumb bastard again, but flash, oh is that a different story.

I'd be fine with flash having a cooldown like Revive's. That would break it to the point of uselessness, just like fortify (in good play), clarity, and heal.

Looks like spell vamp doesn't work with Bio-Arcane Barrage, unfortunately, so getting a gunblade on Kog isn't as effective as I thought it would be. Seems that spell vamp only works on damage related to hits from spells and not on-hit effects when you attack. However, I've heard spell vamp works on most damage spells regardless of damage type.

I was actually thinking that they could just introduce a low cooldown spell that silences summoner abilities for 3-4 seconds, maybe every 90 seconds.

Tada, you can actually gank again and sitting in your lane jerking off is no longer the best strategy.

I just realized that I build Kog very similarly to this "Rock Lizard" guide I found, even though I hadn't looked at it before (I'd only heard of the name), particularly the "classic" build that is listed first. Some key parts are that I go full attack speed runes just like as suggested in the guide and go for Malady and Wit's End before getting Madred's Bloodrazor, often not getting one at all if the game doesn't go long enough. My end-game items have been identical sometimes.

I really wish they'd do this too D:

Why? Basically every champion has an ability that stuns/silences/throws you into the air/knocks you back and stuns you/something of the sort.

Wits End on Kogmaw mid is god tier, still great in a lane too though.

I heard a rumor btw that Flash was getting removed altogether, any confirmation?

My wildest dreams.

Just got done with two troll games as Singed. First game, ended with a RoA, sorc shoes, and two blasting wands. Second, had two RoAs and the same shoes.

Is it bad when a "troll" build is done on the champion doing the most damage in the game?

We KNOW its getting changed when they change how the jungle plays in a normal game (Also when red buff gets nerfed), but the actual date is beyond me.

Obligatory .

So I heard Garen and Leona are getting some buffs

Garen getting buffs?

*cues poison_us *

No, but if they found an item build that guaranteed me a win every time I used it, I'd totally use it. there's no shame in using flash. by not using flash in most cases, you're gimping yourself out of some demented sense of honour. gotta play dirty to win dirty. not running flash on amumu, or galio, or malph is just lolzy.

Confirmed, I'd heard Garen is getting them too. Judgement Cooldown reduced or something snazzy like that. Leona got buffed in the patch.
How is jungling getting changed?
