Veteran player getting back into LoL S3, what...

[quote=Searz]I was in the upper Gold tier(?) in both S1 and S2. I'm hoping to reach Gold or above by the end of S3. Has any role been changed? New items? What are they and how good are they? Is there any optimal jungle route I need to know of? (besides "kill everything") Good counters? OP champions? OP items? Lay the info on me! Edit: I will ask a mod to remove shit comments. Please keep it on topic and informative.[/quote]

[quote=tehAsian]Give us questions that can be answered with more specific answers. Don't ask for general tips. If you want a general answer: ADCs are OP Jungle and Support are gold starved Junglers are utility tanks Top consists of Renekton Jax Shen Riven only Mid consists of to-be-nerfed assassins, Zed, or utility mages Standard jungle build is Machete Golem Tabi Randuins Oracles Tank. Support build is 2x green and pink start, rush Sightstone Boots Shurelyas Oracles 5x green and pink wards. Edit: I'll come back with more answers when I get home.[/quote]

[quote=tehAsian][quote=Searz] Has any role been fundamentally changed? [/quote] Junglers are pigeonholed even further into a tank build. Basically, if you want to win, you build at most ONE damage item even if you're snowballing. Junglers also have to be strong gankers. There are rarely any APCs left. Assassins shit over basically every APC in lane phase. The only real APs that are used are assassins like [[leblanc]], [[kassadin]], or [[fizz]], or you pick an AP with a lot of utility, like [[gragas]], [[lissandra]], and [[orianna]]. Top laners usually either build tank/bruiser and teamfight, or build to 1v1 and split push. [quote] Is there any optimal jungle route I need to know of? [/quote] Junglers normally start near bot, because a support + ADC can help you with your buff. You get a Smiteless leash here, then walk straight to the buff on top side. From there, you gank top or mid, or you clear the jungle normally. [quote] Good standard builds for all roles? [/quote] Jungle: [[spirit of the ancient golem]] [[ninja tabi]] [[randuin's omen]] [[negatron cloak]] upgrade ADC: [[doran's blade]] start [[pickaxe]]/[[b. f. sword]] [[boots of speed]] [[infinity edge]], or [[the bloodthirster]] if you're snowballing Support: 2x [[sight ward]] + 2x [[vision ward]] + 3x [[health potion]] start Rush a [[sightstone]] Buy a [[doran's shield]] if you're winning lane [[boots of mobility]] or [[ionian boots of lucidity]] [[shurelya's reverie]] The rest of your inventory is dedicated to Pinks, Oracles, and Green wards. Mid (AP): [[doran's ring]] start Depends on who you are. Usually Grail or Hourglass first, then damage. Top: [[doran's shield]] start is broken. Also depends who you are. [quote] Good counters? [/quote] ??? [quote] OP champions? [/quote] I expect [[talon]] QQ since Zed got nerfed. [[jarvan iv]] [[zed]] maaayybe [[fizz]] still [[kassadin]] maybe still [[jax]] [[riven]] being qq'd about [[elise]] isn't OP unless she snowballs [[renekton]] is borderline OP [quote] OP items? [/quote] Depends on champion, but I don't think there are any items that are broken. [[doran's shield]] is OP though.[/quote]

[quote=C4 Lasty]Um if you want stuff specific to the jungle you should watch my first 3 podcasts. Though everything's about to change once season 4 drops.[/quote]

[quote=Searz][quote=tehAsian] If you want a general answer: ADCs are OP Jungle and Support are gold starved Junglers are utility tanks Top consists of Renekton Jax Shen Riven only Mid consists of to-be-nerfed assassins, Zed, or utility mages[/quote] This is the kind of info I want. Short, concise stuff that I can build upon easily. I just mainly want info on the [b]changes and new stuff[/b] from last season. Most importantly [b]items[/b]. Edit: oh damn, big new comment. That'll have to wait for tomorrow tho. Snoozin' time.[/quote]

[quote=Bioalchemist][[orianna]] [[lissandra]] = utility mages [[trinity force]] = op[/quote]

[quote=DillButt64]the season is about to change so a lot of the information youre getting answered is gonna be useless in about a month or so[/quote]
