This is actually a good change for Lyra even tho it doesn't look like it. Gives her back the burst heal she desperately missed. Just made her slightly weaker early game. In the end she's better off and still very meta.

I may fall into that category. I was very active a short while ago. I still have a fondness for this site, but I'm not here quite as often as I used to be. Things happen in life that cause for a need to split time. I also personally got burnt out on guide creation so I distanced myself. Finally I just grew tired of all of the complaining. Rather than a site to help and grow it seemed the posts became nothing but what was wrong with the game, and some of it to the point of idiocy. I'm...

You have to snowball him early. He's a beast late game. So draft an early game comp against him, and push hard.

breaking point is great if you are going against a tank comp. If it's squishy you're better off with raw power.

How is this a no win scenario? You just have to understand the win conditions. Their comp is squishy beyond belief, while your comp is inherently tacky, not to mention if you build defense. Flicker could have easily built atlas cauldron and applied it to any of them with ease, or all of them if they bunched up. I would have put atlas on everyone to be honest. I would have built cool down lance for the lock down, and WP ardan for the burst. Play it close to the turrets, because then...

Well the mistake you're making is that there is no ranked matchmaker with the brawl modes. In fact I don't even think there is one for casual. I could be wrong, but I'm routinely matched against tier 1,2, and 3 in casual, so I doubt it. Ranks apply to the mode in which they get their name, Ranked. Ranked does not apply to all modes.

Here's the problem with this as I see it. First, everyone here was once a noob. You have to learn. Some learn faster than others. Some take the time to read up on guides, builds and strats, and others don't. Second of all it's always someone's fault isn't it? The problem with the argument being made here is that everyone will rant about noobs, or stupid players because they didn't play the way that the person complaining wanted them to. When people complain about the others they are...

Here's the reality, which I had to accept, and the way someone phrased it to me. The rolls are the rolls. I think a more fair way to state what these boxes are is for people to understand what you are getting into, and also understand the odds correctly. A 1 in 20 chance is 5%. Those aren't very good odds. To also understand the math correctly you have to understand that it's a 5% chance EVERY time you open the chest. That isn't a increasing chance of probability. There isn't...

Chuckles, have you read my guides? Almost nothing I say is short winded. Some people put stock into rank, some don't. I'm always up front about my status because I come off as opinionated, so it's only fair to know where that position is coming from. I however, choose to liken it to football. The best players don't make the best coaches, and vice versa. I like to think my understanding of the game is superior to my execution of it. But it is what it is. The only thing you can do...
