How come you haven't featured a single Cassthread in this or the last edition of "Meanwhile In Top Lane"? Don't tell me this thread wasn't big enough for you.

When are the keystone balance issues going to be addressed?

Vanic9981/9/2016, 4:00:18 AM2 votes

Riot said that they want to preserve Vel'Koz's reputation for being the definition of balance but still make a small change that would distinguish him from other mages. What small change specifically do you think is needed for Vel'koz?

that dude giving tips for low elo, i do all that, and still get demoted. Elo hell is real. ive seen it. got 13-3, take out 3 towers, i still lose game XD.

im countered, i will lane. I counter them, i will lane. Then allies feed or throw, and things just go down hill from there.

I blame allies, when it is their fault, if i lose lane, i man up and say "my fault" and done, i learn from it, but other players in Bronze, Silver do not. They just blame me, supp, or jg (which are roles i typically play, but i also play mid quite a lot). I can literally be the key to victory, literally almost killing a champ, CC-ing well, dealing "Tons of Damage" (that one was for you phreak), but walk away from an enemy when an ally is near by so they get the kill, and rarely do i get a ty for giving a kill.

Now the new Season will be starting soon, i will try to get into Gold, but im sure with my luck, i wont XD. I get very, very unlucky. I got quite a few main champs, and two-three roles i feel very comfortable with. Got several back up champs i can fall back on.

I try to play safe and/or smart. Try to push leads, if possible or not risky (and when i get away with it, i try to deny as much cs as i can).

So i think i got what it takes. And if i get in Gold, and start to newb up again, i will gladly admit my faults, and learn, which i most likely will learn, so that i can even climb in Gold.

Enjoy and chill my questions: Will you change the new map into something different?Is that possible?What the time it will be realeases?

Why turrets doesnt have name? I really wanna see turrets in U.R.F because april fools day get named, RIP HERO WINION, I remember the time when I showed you how to get stacks and how to get mana, and how to kill baron, but scuttle murdered you!!!! DUM DUM DUMMMM

Rioters says they not giving skins until champion get realeased so we work on it, so why Kennen TahmKench Janna Fiddlesticks Alistar Maokai KogMaw Nami Rengar not getting new skins? Fiddle is weak now so I expect a new rework for him. Poppy getting skin but can it be dollipoppy? :P

Shouldn't it be "speculate" not "spectate"? (Under "Mind of the Virtuoso")
