Quote | PM | +Rep by PhilthyPhil » March 23, 2015 10:16am | Report I have been noticing lane players using them a lot lately and am curious why. Lane is filled with gold as is and you don't get hits for the lane minons just enemies and jungle minons. It can't be that worth it to concede a weapon or crystal early especially with a Ringo who is weak early.

When teammates come up I get more gold. Mainly I think people get it early is because it pays for itself fairly quickly. Main: Catherine & Skaarf Pretty good with Taka & Joule Skill: The Hotness

Quote | PM | +Rep by wolf_hands » March 24, 2015 7:37am | Report Some players might pick it up thinking they'll be sharing the lane with another laner or roamer. Other than that, they may like the early game hp regen. If the player is not concerned with any of that, then who knows why xD IGN: wolf_hands NA Regional Community Manager for SEMC I'm on Twitter and Twitch too!
