League of Legends General Discussion Thread

I believe the current rumor is Salce taking over top lane, Westrice moving to support, and Elementz being benched.

Riot is requiring the Season 3 salaried teams to have at least one (maybe more?) bench player so I imagine the other top teams will also be bringing other people on board soon.

I believe the current rumor is Salce taking over top lane, Westrice moving to support, and Elementz being benched.

If this is true, its mildly humorous that Westrice got kicked from EG, a large part by Salce, and would be "kicked" to support by Salce.

Here is an interesting (long) post about all the things a jungler must consider.

Here is an interesting (long) post about all the things a jungler must consider.

Nice find.

My immediate two thoughts:
1) there's no reason that lane analysis should be limited to junglers
2) having done the analysis, it's probably useful to set your teammates' expectations

I think this doesn't really deserve its own thread but apparently there's rumor/drama going around. It is denied by Riot and supported by Team owners but the gist of the story is that Riot is attempting to use their popularity to force major eSports organizations to drop other MOBA teams to have a LoL team:

Its not true. http://na.leagueoflegends.com/board/show...8#28978008

Well, Riot initially denied it, then several more people from the corporate side of leading teams came out and said, "er, actually, it was true." Riot have kept schtum since then.

Looks like a fairly major PR disaster to me...
