One of the elements of choosing your jungle route is future proofing. Future proofing is basically the concept of accounting for what might happen in the future in a way that is most likely to maintain a gold, XP, and/or tempo lead (possibly all the above).

Tempo at it simplest is if it takes me 3 moves to get to a gank and it takes the enemy jungler 4 moves to get to the same gank, then I have the tempo advantage. Meaning I get to act first. (which could be good - leads to clean gank that earns you a kill or a summoner spell or it could be bad - puts you into a losing countergank situation). Hence why you need to decide if you win the 2v2 scenario when creating your jungle route.

But aren't you still ahead of the enemy jungler in the scenario I listed above?

Technically yes, but in the act of ganking you may have blown your Flash or put all of your abilities on cooldown or the enemy jungler may simply have a kit that counters what your kit does (say you are Shyvana vs a

Adapted from a post I originally made on my all that is ranked thread.

This may all be a no brainer for higher level junglers, but for people that are just getting into jungle or have hit a wall at their current ELO this might be of help if you aren't already doing it.

The idea is to have a plan about how you are going to path in the early game to increase your likelihood of impacting the map early in a positive way and hence increase your chances of going into the Mid game with a lead.

If you are like me for the longest time you had no plan other than to clear your camps and maybe gank overextended lanes if they were near to where you ended your clear. And if there were no ganks available you would go back to farming.

But what if you could pretty much ensure your clear ended up at an almost certainly overextended lane? Sounds pretty good, right?

To be clear this is an early game plan and one which you may have to adapt if you get invaded or if your team calls for and conducts an…

Since there are so many mistakes regarding maths involved in the potential change, I think this needs to be clarified.

ATTACK SPEED GROWTH IS JUST %ATTACK SPEED.

KAYLE'S BASE ATTACK SPEED IS ALREADY 0.667.

For an unknown reason, RiotAugust mentionned a wrong information on his message, Kayle's base ttack speed is not 0.625, it is already 0.667, she just suffers a 0.042 decrease for some reason. So there is no "she will scale harder with attack speed items", the formula is still 0.667 X (1+[atk spd growth X lvl]+[bonus atk spd from items and passives]) except that now her passive give her 20% LESS attack speed and she gets 0.5% MORE per level. So it evens out at lvl 40. Which means that it is a nerf of 11% attack speed at lvl 18 (a tiny bit more than 0.07 attack per sec).

I don't care regarding the rest of the changes but this part needs to be said

There are few champions in the game that make me question Riots balancing team. But Ekko is definitely one of those champions that I ban nearly EVERY game now. Spammable (Mana cost almost non-noticeable) Q with Dorans for stupid easy wave clear, Massive shield in a wide area great for zoning, else the enemy laner will get stunned and lose a trade/kill, Build in Sheen with a dash, and an "oops i ****ed up" reset ult. Maybe its with the new runes that he is a big pain the *** in lane now, but I have definitely been seeing more Ekko's lately and it makes me want to pull my hair out.

So I was logging off my account, and when I clicked later on my game so I can go back to playing, it said that it needs permisson to get updated, I thought it is a new update since servers were "down" (not really down, because on the site it said it was online), I thought it was a new patch (it happend like day before 9.19), then some strange pre-client appeared downloading something, after it finished I got some client, that I saw on Ocenia, where your Username and Password are on the left side, and it has white background there, also you can stay signed in and sign out from your account.
So I think this might be that 10 year surprise Riot wants to make, because I haven't gone to Ocenia or something else I was on EUNE and got logged off from EUNE, and got logged in in EUNE again with that new client. Even though if it is the surpise, it's not something new, as my friend who played on Ocenia now has that client, and that happend few months ago (That's how I know that's Ocenias client)

Hello all! My name is SpellBourne, or Christian. This is my first post, and I will be working on the best and ultimate guides to my main and one trick, Darius. A little about me

> The first champ I ever played was Darius, I was at PAX East 2014 and got to play with my account fully unlocked of all champions, the first game I ever played I went 7/1/5 as Darius, and I knew he was the champ for me.
> I started playing League of Legends in Season 3, and hit Silver 1. I didn't really have a main.
> I am a reformed player, I used to be extremely toxic and abusive to almost all of my teammates, now I am fully reformed, and learned a lot, being that I have two accounts permabanned, which proves this.
> I started taking League much more seriously in season 7 when I wanted to prove to myself and my friends that I am good, and am always improving.
> Since then, I am now Gold 1, almost to Platinum, and am trying to hit at least mid Plat.
> The champion I main, is obviously Darius, he is the reaso…

I'm probably never going to make an actual guide, because pain in the arse, I don't really want to maintain it, and silver scrub (so the amount I don't know about the game would fill volumes).

Anyway, I do like Shyvana but I dodn't like the AP playstyle which basically makes you a sniper that is ult reliant to be able to snipe. And since you need to autoattack to get your ult, except squishy AP champion, then you begin to see the problem.

I've been plinking around with

If you are playing normals or are smurfing. Don't expect the people you are playing to play the game correctly or to even know how to pilot their champion that well. If you need for something to happen you need to direct it by communicating in a way that your teammates can understand. And if your teammate's execution ends up being bad that is an outcome that you should be prepared for.

I've just noticed of late with playing a lot of normal drafts and playing with inexperienced teammates that I will get annoyed when they mess something up. And I've had my moments where I've taken it out on them or had it taken out on me. But why would you take it on someone that is not as good as you? You are playing down, having an expectation for your teammates to play at your level is almost always going to lead to disappointment, if you let it.

Having your Bot lane get smashed multiple times is just a data point that tells you the game got harder to win. You can tilt over that or you can chan…

Hey so I've seen a lot of people playing Teemo Jungle recently and I found out he's AMAZING at it. How would you rate Teemo Jungle in a SCALE FROM 9 TO 10?
Can I get to Challenger by only playing Teemo JG? I believe the answer would be "Yes, absolutely, without a doubt".

They are looking so cute, I did not know how useful would be to have them around, but I wanna build a farm only for their honesy and a big garden of flowers so they can play there and get their pollem.
From what I understand you can craft a nest so I will be able to do it on my survival world probably.

Bee personallity is adorable tho, just look at campfire details about them.
