Rules of league #3 Never tower dive Vladimir

HeadHonchkrowJun 15, 20164 votes

http://i.imgur.com/YKFS2Qi.jpg" The rule #3 of League is that Garen is immortal when positioned in a bush. [slayer-jinx-wink] http://forums.na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=903161 for the original btw

Bookmarked, this is hilarious.
If these rules aren't in there, they should be.

Never dive Renekton, he always has his ult up. If you think Pantheon has the damage to kill you, you're right. Ruthless Pantheon is immortal, just get used to it.

This feels like Yi using Q to dodge a stun.

Over InnsmouthJun 14, 20167 votes

Don't you mean Fizz in general? At least Yi needs a target.

RalanrJun 14, 20163 votes

Yeah, but it's Yi.

Over InnsmouthJun 14, 20167 votes

Eh, I have a soft spot for Yi. He's the dude I learned how to jungle with (and generally learn the concepts of when to go in, etc...) way back when I started the game.

I also refuse to play Guinsoos-Tank or any of that bullshit. I'm blood-draining, pun-peddling, pool-puddling scum, but when I play Yi I go full man-mode Critmaster Yi.

RalanrJun 14, 20163 votes

You have my respect. Something I never thought I'd give that to a Yi player.

Over InnsmouthJun 14, 20162 votes

:D I hope I have your respect as a Vlad player too (technically I'm a tank too).

I get that Yi's an obnoxious, unslowable, spring-cleaning with a Dao shitlord (his AA anim in classic looks like he's using a featherduster to me), but if you catch him he deserves to be blown up like a chicken with a rocket in its ass.

RalanrJun 14, 20161 votes

How is Vlad a tank beyond being hard to kill?

Over InnsmouthJun 14, 20161 votes

At the very least he's classified as one. With Rylai's he can slow someone well enough for the team to catch up, and he's someone who the enemy should focus down, wasting a good chunk of their resources on him, lest he be free to do as he pleases and do as the blood man does.

I said technically anyway. Of course he doesnt compare to Sion or anyone of his nature.

RalanrJun 14, 20161 votes

Well he is a good meat shield and grinder.

He's a drain tank. It's like playing Warwick and someone complains you need to build tankier, so you grab a BotRK.

Fiora Ok.

Over InnsmouthJun 15, 20161 votes

The counter (supposedly) to %health true damage is actually lifesteal/healing mechanics.

I mean, that's technically a counter to all types of damage, so people who support %health true damage as a mechanic can go fuck themselves.

MelledoneusJun 15, 20161 votes

You forget that Fiora has a guaranteed crit and an attack speed slow, as well as an ability that can parry galaxies.

Also, yes. I hate %HP true damage. It says "screw your build, chomp."

RalanrJun 15, 20161 votes

But to be fair, sometimes we need something to kill Mundo. Especially when no one builds GW.

Which is really common sadly.

MelledoneusJun 15, 20161 votes

Screw you Mundo.

While Vlad doesn't have a lot of resistances, he has a bucket load of healing. So yeah, he's not a pure tank but he has to be focused, or else he's gonna 1 v 5 your team, while his health goes from 10% back to 90% (emp. Q and ult). Not to mention his slow from rylai's, which is a core item for him.

do you also build three twin blades and move fast boots?

I've made the mistake of playing Veigar against Vladimir in urf. No stun-walls were helpful that game.

Same thing happens to me with malz passive. It legit screwed me out of 4 kat resets in 1 game.

Void NargacugaJun 14, 20161 votes

I once got a kill due to it. Hecarim ganked me from the top portion of the mid lane near Red Side Raptors and used his E straight at me with my passive up as Malzahar ... E, W, R combo him while he is getting shot by my turret.

SilmarilJun 15, 20161 votes

Nothing like actually getting a group of all solo players to have a good, well-coordinated gank on Vlad at the beginning of the game, only to find out he took his W at level 1.

Over InnsmouthJun 15, 20161 votes

Taking W at level 1 is a good way to learn how to cs with AA's at early levels.
