***it me, Friends... 1v1 Theorycrafting Thread

[quote=Embracing][quote=AncientNecro] Ah, I was just thinking that if we are ever in jungle and it comes down to one of us taking dragon / buff at same time, smite would make me the victor. I guess since it's gonna be full of 1v1 skirmishes though it might be a bit useless. [/quote] You only will be taking the buffs and dragon when you're sure 1) the lane is pushed hard that enemies have to defend their tower. 2) you can win the engagement even if dragon pulls down your health. 3) enemies cannot get to you in time.[/quote]

[quote=Embracing][quote=Slappiz] LoL what? Then you only play with noobs.. I've never lost a lane with Yorick 1on1 (sure a jungler can mess it up), he can out sustain anyone, and his harass is awesome.. And Gman Bob is overrated. [/quote] Yorick is a harass champion not a kill champion. If you've never lost a lane 1 on 1 then I'm sure you only play with noobs lol. Yorick probably won't be a good choice in a 1v1 contest. Look guys you aren't only looking for "good 1v1 champions". That's one factor to consider. Yorick can only slowly pull down enemy champion he can't burst down anyone. Enemies can just counter him by walking away. So basically you can't kill the enemy, but he can kill you. Well unless of course, you're playing against retards who die to Yoricks in lane rofl.[/quote]

[quote=AncientNecro][quote=Slappiz] [quote=AncientNecro] Yorick? Lol yes. Anyone with better harass. Yorick depends on his ability to zone you out of the lane. If he cannot spam skills and zone you, he's useless because you stand right beside of him and just ignore him and continue farming... or you push him out of the lane. At least, that's what I see in all of my games, and on most streams. Gman Bob answered a few questions the other day and he was of the same opinion. Yorick absolutely depends on his zoning ability. If you outrange him it is pretty much over. [/quote] LoL what? Then you only play with noobs..

THE RIDICULE IS COMING. Ready, set... hey MOBA - FIRE![/quote]

[/quote] Very good points mate. I actually think I may just forget about the jungle completely except for grabbing wraiths / buffs when I can, and possibly warding dragon just in case.[/quote]

[quote=Yagamoth]Kayle can't lose if you play her properly ^^... --> I'm being serious here, if you can handle playing Kayle at a reasonable level, you will most likely beat everyone for two reasons 1. People underestimate Kayles potential 2. No one knows how to beat a strong Kayle because barely anyone ever fought against one In the end it doesn't even matter if Kayle would be realisticly a little inferior to other Champions if these two points apply. And honestly, after playing Kayle a lot recently, I think she is brutally strong if you can unleash the full potential - which IS hard. I'm nowhere near yet. (+ you can build her either AP or AD, or both, so the enemy can't simply gear against you).. (and her farming power with the AoE is also fairly extreme) Heimerdinger is one of the strongest pushing Champions. Consider him too Shyvana might be an option since her pushing power + jungle clear potential is strong[/quote]

[quote=Luther3000]Imo if it's a mid 1v1 just ban out all the other strong-ish earlygame AP champs and play Leblanc. It can't fail. :P[/quote]

That's one big mistake you're making right there in the champion selection. And no, Kayle wouldn't be strong in a 1v1. She can get bursted down easy. You can pick kayle, the enemy picks leblanc and you're just fucked. [quote=AncientNecro] Anyone recognize any names? [/quote] Sorry to say I don't.[/quote]
