Welcome to the latest Monday Megathread, where you the community get to ask your questions and share your knowledge.

This is an opportunity for the more experienced LoL players here to share some of your wisdom with those with less expertise. This thread will be a weekly safehaven for those "noobish" questions you may have been too scared to ask for fear of downvotes, but also can be a great place for in depth discussion if you so wish. So, don't hold back, get your game related questions ready and post away, and hopefully someone can answer them!

Subreddit Flair Update

Posted: 02 Jul 2017 10:28 PM PDT

Hello! We have recently updated our flair system, meaning that flairs are now sorted properly. Team flairs are now sorted by region, and alphabetically within regions, and champion flairs are sorted alphabetically as well; that means no more scrolling to the bottom when new flairs are added.

Additionally, we've added new flairs for active teams from most regions (NA, EU, LCK, LPL, CBLoL, OPL, LMS, GPL, and LCL). That means you can relive the glory days with the Gambit.CIS flair (who is apparently still active in LCL), or represent your favourite obscure OPL team like this one that I've never heard of before called Tainted Minds. We also now have flairs for regions, so if you don't feel a particular allegiance to a single team but still want to show your regional pride, you can now do so.

However, this also means that we are removing old flairs for teams that are no longer in their region's major league or teams that have disbanded. Teams like Vici Gaming, Kongdoo Monsters, Bangkok Titans, Saigon Jokers, and others are now no longer in the flair template. Old flairs of teams with new logos or rebranded teams are now defunct as well; say goodbye to the old white Rox Tigers flair (replaced by the new red one), or the Albus Nox Luna flair (rebranded to M19).

In the coming days, we'll be updating all old user flairs to the new system; you do not have to do anything if you like your current flair. Flairs that existed with the old system will automatically transfer to the new one, and flairs of rebranded teams will be updated to their new logos.

TL;DR: We have new flairs for teams in the major league of most regions, and old flairs of dead teams are being removed.

Cheers,

the r/LeagueofLegends moderator team

Tried to turn Syndra's Q/E into those purple flames and cracks but not sure how that turned out... maybe she just missed her skill shots or something?

TSM: LEGENDS - Season 3 Episode 16 - Biofrost

Posted: 03 Jul 2017 02:36 PM PDT

I really don't get all the complaints about the new honor system.

Posted: 03 Jul 2017 02:51 AM PDT

Honor is finally relevant for the first time in a long time and people suddenly care so much about honoring opponents or multiple people on their team. How many years have we been honoring people for no reason at all, or completely ignoring the system all together. The changes to the honor system, whether you realize it or not, are what make it relevant again.

Every other thread seems to be people complaining about the limits of the new honor system when this is probably the first time it's even been relevant.

Those that miss being able to honor an opponent have you tried just typing out a quick note? "Hey, enjoyed laning against you. GG!" That's all it takes.

And those wanting to honor more than one person on the team or feel conflicted by who to honor. Just look back, who stood out the most? Maybe just eenie-meenie-miney-mo that shit. Or default to the support because they probably deserve some love. Limiting honor to 1 vote per person makes it SPECIAL when you actually receive it.

We aren't voting to hand out participation awards, this is honor.

1 vote 1 person

Adding anything else to the system will water it down and make it no where near as special to be on the receiving end.

Also - to those complaining that there is no "carried hard" option... just hit them with the GG<3

It isn't rocket science.

Just Played My First Game Following the Summoner's Code, AMA

Posted: 03 Jul 2017 04:04 AM PDT

http://imgur.com/gallery/4cFA5

I queued with a friend and we decided to cash in on our 26% more games won by following the summoner's code. After winning the game, the enemy tristana added me to say these uncodely words, but besides that it was a fun game. Perhaps I can help you all win 26% more games by showing you the ways of the code :)

Rengar's playrate has been cut down threefold since the rework

Posted: 03 Jul 2017 07:52 AM PDT

With him no longer being stupidly op, and not being fun anymore, most rengar mains (since he is a pretty niche pick) have moved on from him. It's really sad to see such a unique champion be essentially a shadow of his former self. Even nerfed rengar with almost as bad of a winrate had a far bigger playerbase.

I hate to be the one whining for a revert but I really hope riot is considering really big changes.

We won a game despite our Mid Rek'Sai inting 0/38 AMA

Posted: 02 Jul 2017 06:54 PM PDT

https://prnt.sc/fqw8qg http://prntscr.com/fqw8xm

Context: Our mid laner queued as Azir. Then the support saw his stats on Azir and banned him. Retaliating, the mid laner took Rek'Sai and proceeded to run it down.

I'm just as confused

edit: Alright, first post on this sub hits front page..ok Just wanted to point out a few things that were asked

  1. Poppy was our support but moved to mid after Rek started inting
  2. Their team was Yas top, Zed mid, and Gnar sup, so Gnar was the sup, not Yas
  3. Although the post may make it seem this way, I'm not just going after the Rek for this post, I'm not condoning what our supp did
  4. Yes, I too love Silver

edit 2: Still no bans tossed out by rito

edit 3: ban hammer was tossed

Is heimers damage to baron bugged?

Posted: 03 Jul 2017 04:04 AM PDT

Just played against a heimer, and he soloed baron on his own. Okay, we've all seen it happen, but is he meant to be able to burst baron down from 6000 hp in half a second like this : https://gfycat.com/HonoredHarshGemsbok Just wondering if this intended or not, since on the tooltip for heimers ultimate w it says that the max damage should be 1900 max vs champions/monsters but as we can see, it clearly does more.

Champions like Nasus, Thresh, and Veigar should show their stacks at the end of a match.

Posted: 02 Jul 2017 10:46 PM PDT

Would anyone else love this? I think it's a super interesting part of a champion's progression and stat buildup over the match, and can help paint a better picture of how well they were making use of their abilities. Plus, let's be real, every Nasus main like myself only cares how many stacks they have at the end of the match, not whether they won or lost 😂

Something I realized with Rek'sai and thornmail interaction.

Posted: 03 Jul 2017 09:21 AM PDT

Thornmail marks the enemy champion that does dmg to u, because u technically do dmg to them, and that means u can ult them. This is really good late game when u can't get close to the enemy ADC.

League of Legends love story

Posted: 03 Jul 2017 09:50 AM PDT

Hi! My name is Edo and I just wanted to tell that thanking LoL I met a girl that now is my girlfriend, Bianca. Without the game we would have never had the chance to meet, because I am from Italy and she is from Romania. Our love started when the server has matched us together, we were meant to play on botlane, I was randomly playing ADC because back then I bought Lucian's chroma (I never play ADC, it was a coincidence), and she was my support (and she never plays support either..). And at the same time, during the chat lobby, we asked each other to match our skins.. and from there we couldn't stop talking with each other.. from that point we kept playing every day together, always buying skins to have them matched; the game immediately became our way to be together, hang out, and have an amazing time since we weren't able to do it in reality because of the distance. After 8 months, we finally met, and it was the best time of our lives. We fit really good with each other and feel so in love. So, now, we are writing to you together to say that the game has changed our lives forever. We also matched our names in Ràkan and Xàyah like the wonderful couple in the game. League of Legends for us is not just a game, but what made us find the most beautiful feeling in the world: love. We also wanted to give you some memories of our recent meeting. Have a nice day! <3 http://imgur.com/tbVN4Sx http://imgur.com/pR58Y0F http://imgur.com/33HGqAR

Lore Power Level Analysis: Kayn, The Shadow Reaper

Posted: 03 Jul 2017 12:23 PM PDT

What's up guys it's me KatarHero (or Hyper10sion) back with another lore power level assessment. Today I am tackling the newest edition to the list of edgelord favorites: Kayn, The Shadow Reaper.
Also to clarify I am classifying Kayn and Rhaast as if they were one being, due to their mystical bond through corruption, similar to the other darkin champions and their hosts. This will mean that he will not fall under the rule I established as being an automatic Mortal Tier placement.
Just in case you haven't seen one of these before, I'll give you a quick run down. I am going to analyze Kayn/Rhaast in five categories: Makeup, Physical Abilities, Magical Abilities, Weaknesses, and Feats. I will then place him into one of my five tier lists, explaining the placement as well.

Kayn, The Shadow Reaper

Makeup: Kayn is a human trained in the ways of the Order of Shadow. He is in peak physical condition due to his training, which has also given him some mystical properties. Rhaast is one of the five darkin, ancient living weapons that corrupt and control their wielder, if their body and mind are strong enough to withstand touching them. Touching Rhaast is so dangerous, the Noxians transporting it wrapped it in both chain mail and cloth to ensure that no one would touch the handle during transport.

Physical Abilities: Despite being only human, Kayn is a physical freak. He can effortlessly snap a man's neck, manage to wield the massive Rhaast, and stay stealthed in plain sight. Rhaast is a massive curved blade scythe, which given the size would weigh at least ten pounds, which is around four and a half kilos. With Kayn's strength swinging a blade like Rhaast, it would be easily able to cleave multiple men in half with a single swing.

Magical Abilities: Kayn and Rhaast's true power is in their magical properties. Without Rhaast, Kayn can use his shadow arts to walk through walls, teleport using the shadows of his enemies, and even infiltrate the minds of those unlucky enough to be in his way. His mental/magical fortitude is enough that he is able to resist Rhaast's influence, showing even less visible corruption than Varus, who was previously a warrior of great renown and will. Rhaast is one of the most powerful and dangerous beings/weapons in all of Runeterra. He can corrupt and destroy most beings who merely touch his hilt, and has existed for millennia without being destroyed. As shown with Aatrox and Varus, the darkin can be used to devastating effect with or without a fully bonded host, as Aatrox and his host was able to slaughter the most powerful tribe in the Frejlord with ease, and Varus was able to slaughter an entire battalion without completely bonding to his bow. In addition Rhaast himself says he is immortal in his full darkin form, but it is unknown whether this is boasting or the truth.

Weaknesses: As a human Kayn can still be killed by normal means. It is unknown whether Rhaast's magic would give him any sort of regenerative abilities like that of Aatrox, and it is assumed that Rhaast can be destroyed. However this latter assumption is based on the belief that the acolytes could destroy Rhaast, however the blade has existed for millennia and no one has managed to destroy it yet. Beyond physical weaknesses Kayn and Rhaast constantly struggle for control, meaning in battle this could make them lose focus and possibly be surprised.

Feats: Kayn has been shown to move without being detected, kill an entire squad without effort, and has managed to resist Rhaast's attempt to exert full control over his body. Rhaast has existed for millennia, and has been used to slaughter countless people.

Summary:

Alone, Kayn was already a force to be feared, almost on par with his master. With Rhaast Kayn far surpasses his singular power, able to cut down scores of enemies with ease, taunting them the entire time. Due to Kayn's shadow art powers combined with the sheer might that Rhaast possesses, Kayn managed to shadow step up and make his way into the Harbinger Tier.
Tier: Harbinger Tier (Abnormality Subtier)

Is the edgelord overrated? Did I understate his power? Talk to me about it in the comments, and check my account for the other tier lists and assessments if this one has drawn your interest! I'm ready for some of you to try and cut me down to size!
Edit: Spelling

[suggestion] Make the client pop up when you have to pick or ban

Posted: 03 Jul 2017 06:00 AM PDT

I don't know wether this has been suggested before, but I think it would be great because a lot of people dodge nowadays while they don't even want to. Sometimes I'm 20 minutes in queue because people keep dodging and then I finally dodge myself on accident because I didn't see it was my turn and then I have to wait 30 minutes. I think the league client popping up in front of whatever you are doing (just like it does when a match has been found) would be a great way of preventing this.
