About rumble..

[quote=Valkenhyn]Idk Udyr is good at mitigating damage but rumble puts out a TON what about Galio?[/quote]

[quote=animorte]I have played Galio against Rumble effectively. Get MR and mana regen, you can keep up just fine, assuming you don't suck with skill-shots.[/quote]

[quote=MyRepublic][quote=FalseoGod] FoTM? Riven lost because of my sustain vs hers: she went boots + 3 pots, I went vest + 5 pots. Poke and dance, she couldn't always full combo me coz of my W + E juke. Eventually my ignite took her down, and from there she was pooped on. Akali can't cut it, and I dunno how you would manage to tbh. She needs to farm with Q, if she hits me with Q I juke and when it's gone I go head on (plus Q damage is reduced due to my W to the point it's negligible). Proceeed to poop on. Her ulti requires her to be on top of me for a bit, so she eats my ulti's initial burst, my Q and my E. If she shrouds I just need to wait exactly where I am (with my ulti around). [/quote] None of them are used much in pro games so they aren't Flavor of the month and even when they're on free week (which is about never) no one uses them. Also if an [[akali]] is good she can dance around you and kill you without any issues. If she's smart she'll save up two dashes so she can jump on you and proc all her stuff in an instant then immediately jump away and avoid all your damage before jumping back on and finishing you if you weren't already dead (Which you were. You were dead. Else that [[akali]] is building wrong.) And it seems like that [[riven]] was just outplayed. I've never had a problem with a [[rumble]]. Even one time i was playing really crappily and this [[rumble]] killed me early as [[riven]] and i still came back and ended up getting fed off of him... Whatever. I'm sure you're very good with [[rumble]] and would destroy most [[akali]]s and [[riven]]s just as i destroy most [[rumble]]s with them.[/quote]

[/quote] Lol, still learning here, but confident enough for ranked on my elo. Anyway, now I got an even better idea when to pick him, thanks guys![/quote]

[quote=NinjaGinge][quote=Acid Reigns] I've done it with kayle. The reason you don't see him a lot is because of his 'high skill cap' -.- [/quote] yup, this ^[/quote]

[quote=Berzerk]Laning vs Rumble is a skill matchup. To beat a good rumble you NEED to know when to engage on him (CDs down, not in danger zone, or overheat). Even at these times it can still be close, you really just need to know the champion.[/quote]

[quote=animorte]The only time I ever lost a match-up against Rumble was when I was forced to solo top with Malphite. That was miserable. Malphite = AD Counter, not AP...[/quote]

[quote=FalseoGod]Hmm, I would need to see other Rumbles. So far I've one 3 of my 4 Rumble ranked matches, and the one I lost I still stomped my lane, but it was a really hard matchup (they had 4 stunners: amumu, veigar, taric, riven - the stomped one - and tristana to clean up) Feels easier to elo climb with him than I think I could with Jax[/quote]

[quote=animorte]Playing a powerful, effective champion that you enjoy is a great way to do so.[/quote]

[quote=FalseoGod]A little bit of update: - [[Kennen]] requires a lot of brain and dodge from [[Rumble]]. At worse, it's a farm lane, but farmed Kennen provides much needed damage, so it's not necessarily good; - [[Mordekaiser]] versus [[Rumble]] is a boring farmfest and a waste of time. You're too mobile for morde to kill you 1 vs 1 unless you're dumb, and morde's trollshield impedes your dps from effectively mowing him enough so that his healing on minions isn't enough. And trust me, it's the most boring lane imaginable[/quote]
