Ouch.
I don't think I'm gold material (I'm probably mid silver at best) but if I played ranked earlier and took climbing seriously I think I could have reached gold.

Srsly, there is still a Weekend to go so...just blast Guile´s Theme in the Background and go Sion, y can do it, with the right amount of willpower!

I lost like 4 promos early in the season and work 8:30-5:30.

I'm sure it's possible. But I'm content with not for now.

MonkeyMadnessNov 3, 20162 votes

Honestly dw. Rank means absolutely nothing right now, and this is by far the worst victorious skin.

President Swa1nNov 4, 20165 votes

I personally believed it to be quite the opposite.

Perhaps a satisfactory term to describe what I thought of it is 'lit'.

MonkeyMadnessNov 4, 20163 votes

Let me get this straight: you like victorious maokai? Even though it's a skin for a champ that has virtually no impact on the competitive scene this season? Meanwhile champs like rek'sai and kennen are picked/banned in virtually every game. The point of the victorious skin is to honor a champ that had big impact on the competitive scene for that season. This is simply not true of Maokai.

The Blue RajahNov 4, 20166 votes

Some people like the skin, is that so hard to believe?

MonkeyMadnessNov 4, 20163 votes

The skin itself is fine. It's the fact that Riot destroyed the importance of the Victorious skin line that I don't like.

President Swa1nNov 4, 20161 votes

I do. Haven't seen the in-game model yet, but the art does indeed look incredibly lit.

As for whether he had an impact on the competitive scene, I agree he wasn't the MOST popular pick, but he was relatively useful in LCS IIRC. And personally, I care more about how shiny and gold he looks.

MonkeyMadnessNov 4, 20161 votes

He was useful last season, and was not picked much thiis year.

If my boosted ass can get gold so can you.

Acknowledges it was a good burn without getting offended
Provides some reasonable comeback

Boards needs more of this.

It isn't too late until the 7th, this weekend I can add you and try to get you that skin :,^)

RalanrNov 3, 20162 votes

You're too kind, but I must decline the boosting (friend requests are always welcomed).

Its not boosting if you contribute to victory :^)

xIntensoNov 3, 20164 votes

That's really nice! Although i might not agree with the choice of Maokai, I also think that this is the best-looking victorious skin so far, both the actual skin and the splash art. It has SO much attention for detail. Plus, it gets me Maokai for free since I don't have him yet, which is a welcome bonus!

SSJTribeNov 3, 20162 votes

My thoughts exactly

Jeddy017Nov 3, 20164 votes

Damn, that's pretty good. Still not going to lose sleep over not getting it.

PlacentasNov 3, 20164 votes

Lookin' victorious asf

OglafNov 3, 20163 votes

The recall alone makes it the best Victorious skin to date.

SpecterVonBarenNov 3, 20163 votes

I'm kinda indifferent towards the skin but that is a pretty cool splash.

Pawn of heartsNov 3, 20162 votes

why does it have to be Mokai, why can't it be " Yasuo"? I meant he shook the attention of League of legends player, have the whole community against him.

InhumanErectionsNov 3, 20166 votes

First of all, Maokai. Secondly, this is based off what dominated competitive, and while Maokai may have only been meta in the summer split, he still got the skin, as opposed to Yasuo, who hasn't seen competitive play.

JerulEonNov 3, 20165 votes

That one time Huni whipped out the Yasuo was pretty dope tho.

InhumanErectionsNov 3, 20163 votes

Oh, I forgot about that.

But really, other than that, Yasuo was pretty much useless this whole season.

ModCaptainMårvelousNov 3, 20162 votes

And so it begins.

Updates are hitting the new client sooner than the old one now. It's a small step and only a splash art...but it begins.

Giving maokai a victorious skin, it's like giving victorious skin to Garen.

Looks at two options in front of me

Option 1: Get Gold. Option 2: Be Lazy.

Yeah, I'm ok.

The new client doesn't fix problems; it just a shiny new menu pregame

DwarvenGiantNov 3, 20166 votes

It has been rebuilt from the ground up, so it actually does fix problems.

It's not just a visual update, it's a completely remade client. :P

Leon EtoileNov 6, 20161 votes

It still currently uses all of your old game files...

DwarvenGiantNov 6, 20161 votes

Why wouldn't it? If we're referring to the same thing, what is displayed in the shop for example- They didn't rebuild the whole game, just the client, so it's supposed to use the "old" files.

Again, unless you were referring to some other kind of old game files.

HyperiönNov 3, 20166 votes

The new client is actually so much better than the current one.

it fixes a lot of the problems and more importantly it lets them fix future problems easier because it isn't as clunky as the old client was.
