Skarner and Darius Hotfix, Chicago Server Move...

[quote=Wayne3100][center][img=http://www.mobafire.com/images/news/riot-compilation-006.jpg width=550][/center] [rule] Hello everyone and welcome to another Riot news compilation post, where we give you a quick overview of the news content created by Riot in the past couple of days. Today, we'd like to start by pointing your attention to an update in the patch notes of patch 5.16 (conveniently "stickied" at the top), consisting of a [[Skarner]] nerf & [[Darius]] buff. These changes are part of a hotfix which is being patched across all regions [i][url=https://twitter.com/Ququroon/status/636280975639515136]today[/url][/i], with NA receiving the update a little later due to the server migration. Speaking of which, the article rounding up the NA server move to Chicago is also in today's overview. Apart from that, there's also a new champion and skin sale, this week's free champion rotation, an upcoming Q&A with a Rioter, Reignover discussing [[Olaf]], new bundles inspired by the winning NA & EU LCS teams and more. Feel free to leave your thoughts on these articles below, and if you're on NA let us know how the server change affected your ping!

[quote=Toshabi]Also, hot damn, this really fucked up west coast ping. I'm working on 110~150ms per game now. I gotto get used to playing with lag if I'm going to want to land skill shots that delay 1/2 second. smh.[/quote]

[quote=Sxty4Fox]Very happy of the server move! 80 before to 34 ping now. Marvelous![/quote]

[quote=Toshabi][quote=Sxty4Fox]Very happy of the server move! 80 before to 34 ping now. Marvelous![/quote] I knew they did this move for the furries. Fuck you Riot![/quote]

[quote=Latest Legend]Looks like Riot would rather fuck the furries than you Tosh. Still sorry for your ping though.[/quote]

[quote=Toshabi]LoL is the only game that has one server instead of multiples. besides, everyone knows all the pros are in West Coast. I feel bad for the competitive side of LoL knowing they gotto deal with these lag inconsistencies for practice. Smh smh smh.[/quote]
