I’ve decided I’m not great with Trist, should I try Corki instead? I don’t see him often at my level, so he could be a bit of a surprise and I do like his style :)

Yeah, pretty sad tbh.
Corki has a very rewarding playstyle, but it’s hard to get to grips with. I’d recommend him to anyone though. :)

Corki has a higher skill curve than Trist, but he’s definitely worth learning.
Hehe. Damn. I wish I knew what I was doing suboptimally with Trist. It bugs me that I am not fairly capable with her whereas I consider myself competent with Morde and Rammus.
I can’t resist trying new heroes, will grab Corki later today!

stick with rammus, jungling rammus is so fucking dangerous, worse than WW by far.
Rammus is great early game, but WW will outclass him later. Depends on the team makeup.

it’s hard to get gank if other team buy wards with WW, but it’s not an issue with fucking rammus, he move so fast, by the time I see him with the ward, I already don’t have enough time to run.
I have no problem 1 vs 2 any lane or doing mid, but rammus is bane of my existence on malzahar, I think even late game rammus is better than ww, simply you can interrupt ww’s ult you can’t interrupt a taunt, and that taunt last a LOOOONG TIME.
Aren’t they nerfing taunt duration next patch or something.

So I’ve been seeing from all the QQ out there.
I honestly like Rammus jungling so much more so than WW. Powerball->Flash->taunt at level 4 is almost always a kill if the person whose lane you’re ganking is halfway competent. And then once you hit 6 you can usually push a tower fairly fast with you ult after wards.
Maybe its just my runes that I use for WW, but I think I actually jungle faster as Rammus currently.
WW might be the better jungler at higher levels, I dunno, but Rammus’ survivability and ability to lock down multiple targets over a team fight, AND interrupt ults with power ball makes him really good against disorganized teams.

speaking of disorganize teams, if enemy rammus is looking to ram and taunt the caster AKA me, and if I have other teammates with me, who decided to all run away since I was backing off in order to avoid the powerball.
You don’t run away, if you are tanky, go in and take the powerball for the caster, a walking rammus is an useless rammus.
Someone just reported and ignored me for carrying out team with MF (and i was actually doing good) and then the whole team surrendered at 25 mins while we still had almost all our turrets…
Oh, don’t get me wrong, I love jungle Rammus, just I want to have a tank, a carry and a support played well before I play ranked so I can improve team comp.
So, recommended Corki guide? I understand he has changed recently.
I picked up Corki and tried him with bots. Love how much the silence messes with an enemy mid’s DPS and how you can E while launching rocket after rocket. Neato. You can burst someone down pretty damn quick.
Took blue and yellow mana regen but still find he can eat a lot of blue. Since you pretty much build AD, does anyone bother to sideline into any mana items or do folks just learn to ration their mana and grab blue buff?
I do indeed! …only one game in ;)
So the new champion is a tank?
Man, Corki is great fun - but you need to be mashing buttons all the time - which I’m very much not used to. R R R R R R RR R if they get close Q E R RR R R Rr rrr RRRRrR rrRRr. Pretty amusing.

She’s pretty clearly a support. The next two are tanks- one’s a tree man of some sort, I think.
I’m intrigued. She looks to be LeBlanc re-imagined as a support character, with a bit of old Ezreal (her Q is Essence Flux, at least in textual form).
So this was a weird one.
The enemy team
Trist, Kassadin, Ram, Malph, Kayle.
Our team
Amumu(me), Xin, Jax, Akali, Renekton
and we won, and quite easily.
Weird.
Akali is an incredibly strong solo.
I mean yea, it’s a hard road to 6 but then once you hit 6 you can pretty much straight up kill any other solo champ in the game.
