If you're not sure, wait until it goes on sale. However, Riot does have that double RP thing going on, so now would be a nice time to stock up on RP if you felt like getting it. (It's almost like getting the skin half-off. Almost.)

Also Lux is the best ever and I wish I saw her more in professional games. The idea that she isn't because she's based on skillshots is silly. I've gotten kind of bored of watching League tournies, ended up spending last weekend watching all of The Internationals for Dota 2 instead (still had boring moments, but more variety in terms of strategies).

Speaking of PAX, a friend went and got me Riot Graves and Arcade Sona. Bot lane is my strongest, so this is bueno.

I got him anyways because who can pass up the squeaky duck floaty that he throws for his satchel charge.

I really like Lux and I thought the same thing Sheila. The fact that she's based on skill shots alone should count for something in tourneys since it's a way for the ap mid player to show off his skills to the world. Heck even a support Lux doesn't really appear anywhere

I haven't seen Pool Party Ziggs in-game yet, but I am looking forward to it. About time we had some fun skins again.

I like going both mid and support with her. Her harass is pretty crazy for bot lane, and her CC is great for securing a kill or making a get-away. As far as aggressive supports go, I enjoy her immensely. I remember someone once told me, "Using someone that needs farm to support means you're gimping your team," but all I do is get a Philo and Kage's and rush Morello's and I'm pretty much good to go.

Actually some friends of mine decided we'd four-man and try doing double-top, so I went up with Lux and my friend as Lee Sin (shields e'erywhere) but unfortunately our other lanes did not fare well so we lost. I want to have more "meta-breaking" games, though. With a competent team they can do well.

My group I play with often has done meta breaking teams a few times, and I plan to do more in the future. We have done team juggernauts (all tanks/tanky people) and all AP to great success. Especially when the enemies don't know how to counter build. Team juggernauts we might have maybe seen a madreds on one person, out of the few times we've done it, and when we did all AP the enemy suddenly became deathly afraid of building MR, and none of them got any MR until it was too late.

We still need to try all AD carries, all supports, all junglers (dat 5 man gank op), AOE, etc. Maybe an attack speed team, see if they are intelligent enough to build a frozen heart.

Breaking the meta is my middle name.

So I was thinking about buying AstroNautilus, and the double RP deal pretty much sealed the deal. I haven't tried him yet but I'm so excited. Plus now I have enough RP left over for another skin, but I'll just save this for sales.

HEALS AND CC ERRYWHERE.

Would be a good team for sustained sieges, whether on the defending or sieging team, due to dat support sustain and poke.

Nice, surrender at 20! Love those matches.

I also love when you seem to be even, but losing, and then you win one teamfight and the enemy team quits. Its like you want be all "dudes, you could have won, what are you doing", but then you go "shh, dont question it"

Athene's unholy grail is so good on Sona. It's like the old death fire grasp plus all the other good stuff. I do miss getting death fire grasp on Sona though so I may try it out again.

Also Arcade Sona needs to have the volume and particle on her ult amped up. You can barely see/hear it now

"Aw man I should've picked something else than Rengar, I'm not too great at jungle (especially not with Rengar), and I'm not really good with Rengar either"

And then this happened - not to mention with a build I never used in a real match before too

Man I wish

But it's always like this, I mention I'm not good, and then I kick butts so hard that my foot breaks off in their booty (I had 3 kills before the game even hit the 5 minute mark)
Go in and say nothing, end up 0/10/2

Atleast I'm getting a better hang at Rengar, altough it's still pretty bad.
