r/LeagueArena

Arena is my favorite mode but I've escaped back to Summoner's Rift just to avoid this item. I'm so tired of my death recap being whiter than the "after" photo in a toothpaste commercial.

It's % true damage so you can't itemize against it, health and resistances are both dead stats vs this.
It's %max health so you can't strategically fight someone else first to avoid its user until you're lower hp to minimize its impact.
The vitals spawn all around you so you can't outplay it with positioning.
It has a strong solid statline with adaptive force, meaning every single type of champion can buy it without sacrificing much.

This is not only annoying but also incredibly boring. Everyone just buys it on sight. Just had a game where it came up in Ornn's shop and out of 12 people left in the lobby, 9 bought it instantly (would've been 10 but I'm boycotting it personally). This included tanks, mages, assassins, bruisers, adc's and enchanters.
For a gamemode whose core replay value lies in randomness and variety, this is antithetical to its existence.

A few days ago there was an arena tournament for streamers, and they collectively agreed to ban this item from being purchasable to save the viewing experience. In random matchmaking we don't have the luxury of a gentleman's agreement.

Please tell me if I'm coping or if this item really needs to be nerfed back into the dirt where it belongs. No matter how hard I try I can't think of a reason why it wasn't hotfixed within 2-3 days of release. Obviously arena balance isn't top priority at Riot but it's still someone's job.

Champions with stacking abilities like Smolder, Nasus, etc get a certain amount of free stacks per round, including Bye rounds; but curse augments and I think a bunch of others like Demat don't give any stacks.

This is incredibly frustrating when you finally feel like you have good build going but you get bad lucked into a bye round and lose out on a ton of scaling potential. I still cry a little inside every time I finally get a curse build going after a bad start and then get forced into a Bye round at 25 hp, and then the execution threshold increases from 20 to 25 hp so I die anyway because I have low stacks on my curses.

Also, I feel like in 3v3 there are way more bye rounds than usual, I just played a game where I legitimately got 4 bye rounds, though I realize that's a complete outlier, it still felt terrible to be down potentially 400+ curse stacks late game.

Unstable Transmutation > Gold anvil augment > All prismatic anvils???
Is this a bug or did I just get crazy lucky?

It obvious it shouldn't work as it would be an extremely easy perma invincibility but I had to test it just in case and I can confirm it doesn't work at all

Even after death and level ups, your dashing abilities will keep their their ability haste from level 3 dashing from unstable transmute.

I got it on kassadin, and was absolutely broken. My R was on 0.8s (later 0.33 on level 3 R) cooldown from round 1.

Unstable transmute is pretty dang strong already, but if you got a dash reliant champ, that's even more reasons to take it now.

I know this plagues all queues, but it is especially bad in the 18-man 3v3's. Nearly every, if not every loading screen it seems is plagued by someone locking up and causing a 5 minute load time. I've seen it happen regardless of how good systems are, it's happened to me, it's happened to all of my friends, I don't honestly know anyone it hasn't affected.

The problem is not so much that it locks your computer up, it doesn't. It's that League completely hogs the visual output when it breaks this way. Your computer still works during this time, however Task Manager is pretty ineffective at clearing it out.

Well, I am glad to announce, that I have found the quickest way out and I'd like to share it with everyone here so that maybe we can cut down on times going forward depending on how many see this.

The first thing you're going to do is run an instance of Windows PowerShell and make sure you keep it open while you're playing.

Before you start LoL up, type exactly this command in:

> Stop-Process -Name "League of Legends"

And hit enter. An error message should pop up saying

> Stop-Process : Cannot find a process with the name "League of Legends". Verify the process name and call the cmdlet again. > At line:1 char:1 > + Stop-Process -Name "League of Legends" > + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > + CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (League of Legends:String) [Stop-Process], ProcessCommandException > + FullyQualifiedErrorId : NoProcessFoundForGivenName,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.StopProcessCommand

That's fine, the error is just telling you it's not running. But now you have your way out of the screen. Really all we're trying to do here is get it as your most recent PowerShell command.

Now when you encounter the freeze, you can alt + tab out to PowerShell (even if you can't see it) and hit the up arrow key and then Enter. It will immediately kill your LoL process and allow you to reconnect.

Happy slaughtering on The Rings of Wrath.

Dont know if its known but she can basically two shot the plant idk how, her spiders shouldnt take like all of the HP

If I remember correctly it used to work like Fiora Passive - you hit from that angle, deal damage and get the boost, and a few seconds later a new mark shows up.

What the fuck is this new(?) iteration exactly doing?

There are almost constantly 4 marks in every direction of the target, what's the thought process here?

I heard a lot of complaining about Kinkou Jitte being broken, and having played a few games I see why.

But I still don't get it -WHAT THE FUCK IT IS SUPPOSED TO DO???

This is an infinite trigger loop

Autocast Firefox ---> Runecarver ---> Hexbolt ---> Autocast

This is alredy insane but because both wild fire and firefox are basic skills, they both trigger Magic missile, this one being lv2 it keeps on adding more each time autocast.

All this being accelerated by lvl 3 energized wich gives more energized charge and lauches even more projectiles.

All this while also having lighting rod and accelerating, so each autocast also drops the lighting shield and gives haste.

Craziest thing is that you could go even higher with Fulmination and statick, sadly I did not get it.

I will be chasing this high for the rest of my life.
