I gotta hand it to the guys on the first post. Some of it was edgy (to me) but I'm certain it was all in good spirits. I guess I'll just start using these as an update on my journey to Ranked matches and to the ultimate goal of being 'The Real Deal'.
This one's out to you Banana Man. Wherever you are.
I updated my guide to better reflect what I'm seeing out there, and that's I don't understand the hype about Flash, but I use it anyways. Oh no, don't get me wrong, I can definitely see how 2 less deaths is crucial in the matches that matter, since most of those are won before 20 kills is even reached, but from a Normal, Free-Pick perspective the training to be had is lessened by the fact that it's easier to escape people still experimenting without it. Nevertheless, I use it now in place of Exhaust.
Speaking of spells, someone remarked about my using of Teleport on Annie. Is that abnormal? I have no clue since I don't play either Annie or mid.
And speaking of mid..! I am || <- that close to buying Lux and learning how to be a mid lane champion. (I always picked Broaden my Horizons in KH1) Learning new things is easy and fun.
Unless it's DOTA. Then it's not fun, it's aggravating.
On a side note, I nearly entered a tournament, but the cost would've been too much. Why are Riot Points so expensive? Surely Riot is sitting on fat stacks the size of a small mountain with all these buyers. It's a great time to be a Riot Employee, as their net worth is through the roof, this metaphorical roof being just under the 2 billion mark.
I'll get Lux later today and begin a section of my journey with her. I'm going to miss all the W's.

Oh yes and supports these days carry the ADC, not like the past season that ADC needs to carry supports =/
Supports FTW!!! :DDDD
I do use it on every other character, and have been for some time with Soraka, and know the value of a gap closer. Distortion upgrade on Lux is always fun.
I'll join in:
I wonder who you are talking about :P
As a support, the killing application is not a point I look at. I'd flash in to save a teammate with a heal, but there's never been a situation where that's been needed. Never. I'll use it for those 'just in case' moments, but as of now I can't find anything but escaping as a tool for it.
I appreciate your concern though.
(I most likely WILL be using it offensively with Lux.)
- Escape
- Repositioning
- Catching up / Ganking
- Making dem plays
There are a few champs that synergize better with ghost than flash like hecarim, but as long as you run one of the two on most champs you'll see much improvement. The only exception to always use an escape summoner would probably be shaco jungle, but I don't play much shaco jungle anymore so maybe you do need flash nowadays idk lol.
Lux is one of those champs that is always a good pick, she works pretty well in most metas that I've seen.

Flash will do more than save you 2 deaths a game. It will allow you to save other team mates, pick up multiple kills, initiate fights (leading to even more kills) and will save your *** more than 2 times.
Don't look at flash as JUST an escape tool. There is so much you can do with it it's ridiculous!
