New favourite: Warwick
Having an absolute blast with him, have purchased for later usage.
You must buy the dress for him then.

Next champ is the plant mage, designed directly by Morello.
Idea seems decent. Rumor is she will have some unique gimmick.

Why are ppl complaining about Orianna changes? I thought they were a good thing?
Also, Ionic Spark still shit, c/d?
From some theory crafting from reddit, it now gives more EHP than wits for cheaper against anything but double ap+ comps. Also more damage in any situation other than 1v1.
The Proving Grounds. Guess they wanted those games to be even shorter with that and the death time change.
Janna nerf
MF buff
Why do I get this feeling that Orionna will be in foreverbanhell after these changes? I'll just have to make sure I keep versed with her so in case she is not banned I can mid and own hard.
Well at least try to...
After watching the Jayce spotlight video he looks totally OP as fuck.
Bot lane:
Really like the changes. Cait and Mf buffs, sona buffs, soraka nerfs. All good for botlane balance.
Janna passive nerf definitely good. Udyr and Janna on same team was fucking hilariously op early.
Mid lane:
Orianna probably overbuffed depending how responsive her ult will be. All that mattered before was timing it well as you knew it take like 0.5 to take use after casting. Good change to lower base dmg / ap ratio on Q but decrease cooldown, usually if you left ball behind you had to move it closer to you by shielding yourself or breaking leash, it's not going to be that painful to waste Q to move her closer to enemies now. She is still hard to play and she is still rewarding i just hope they didn't overdo her.
Xerath changes needed but missed the point completely. He is still same with same problems. Lux probably better. Karthus nerf definitely good. Not sure about leblanc, didn't really played again her very much, usually just bought chalice / abysall to counter her early and she felt off too fast.
Rest:
Dunno or don't care. I think nunu jungle will be good again, same for small return of rammus. Naut nerfes well deserved and not overdone i think.
Really like that akali's Q can be consumed by E. This is much more important that most people might realize. Usually to conserve your energy during chases and single target dps you used to: Throw Q, wait for his cd, jump with R, auto to consume Q and reapply Q while waiting for cd again. It was cause not consuming Q charges fucked up your energy so hard you wouldn't be able to cast anything. If you somehow had a lot energy during chase you could throw in one E possible but that's all. Lowering her E cost and letting you cast it during chase instantly (Q + fast E combo consuming it with higher range that auto) is awesome. Need to test it in game to check how much more dmg you can deal.
Jayce looks ok if someone like this type of champion. I don't. He can do too many things meaning he is not best at any of it.
Edit:
Studio, 2000 elo player and one of best casters in the game did a 20 min video about patchnotes. This is probably not going to be a pro view, as tournament balance is different then solo queue balance in case of utilizing compositions not lone power of single champions, but he probably know enough for our level of play. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhGdpxRrKLY

Ok. I am getting better, and won 8/10 of my last games. Noob teams ofc, but feels good.
However, I now have the noobest of noob questions.
I know who goes top, mid and bot lanes, just because people have said it. But...why?
What is so different about the top and bot lanes?
Dragon control.
It's all about drake. Seriously, whole map design is because of having second low timer objective. By basic, if you want to utilize global xp and gold best you need 4 players in lanes and one in jungle. Its just most efficient as zoning is not existing. So now you have to decide who goes where to maintain a good team line up. You kinda want mixed dmg meaning ap carry + ad carry, you want support as someone who is not stealing gold from one lane while still not being useless. And you want control over fight meaning tanky bruiser or second ap champ with good aoe is a key. That leaves a champion in the jungle that need to do two things out of this three: clear jungle fast, help other lanes, not be useless later. Best junglers can do all 3 to some point. This is why tanky gankers are currently the fotm - mao, alistar, nautilius, shen and old good farm jungler fall behind a bit as they do not contribute to lanes early slowing team snowball powers.
Ok, we alerady know who we need, now let's back to where to put them and why drake is so important. First of all, drake is too important in xp / gold wise meaning letting enemy team clear it for free is too risky. This way not only you want someone near to him who can ward and keep control but you want to be able to gather as many players there as soon as possible. This is why support needs to be near to drake meaning duo lane needs to be somewhere nearby. So, we got a 2-1-1 already fixed knowing that someone has to solo top. Now we got short midlane (distance between towers) with highest roam and gank and assist possibility, and we got two long lanes bot and top. Ad carries are the squishiest and easiest to gank early and they really rely on support helping them farm that they need so much. Having someone to ward constantly and sustain you in lane is vital. This is why support and ad carry goes bottom. They can farm freely, they are near to drake, and support is not wasted. Mid is most influental as long as global objectives are concerned. This is why ap carries usually are ale to roam or gank well as they got good burst and good cc. They can also sustain their laning easily even againt duo, especially if they got their blue buff. Shoving lanes / clearing lanes is the key - if you can farm whole lane in 2 sec with your abilities it doesn't matter who you face. You can do it anywhere and just gtfo of your lane in time. Last but not least - top lane. This is probably hardest lane in game and most snowballing one. This is why tanky champs with escapes go there as they are hardest to gank. Notice that if your jungler succesfuly kill enemy top lanes the gap is very high. Enemy jungler either have to come top and try to restore balance to save the difference or remain on rest of map trying to balance your jungler influence here, that he is able achive as top is already won by his gank.
And that's pretty much it. Sorry for long post and bad grammar, i am in kinda rush here ;3
Thats great, cheers! Being still pretty noob, and well away from ranked games etc, team tactics are....shaky, at best.
Thats a good explanation.
Jayce is fun, very versatile with good utility. You can build tanky while still having dmg.
Translation YET ANOTHER TOP LANE BRUISER. But this one's different because he's melee and ranged! He's the new Kayle, except he's a bloke...
he's Mayle.
