    League of Legends Free Talk Tuesday - December 10th!


    Free Talk Tuesday - December 10th!

    Posted: 10 Dec 2019 02:15 AM PST

    What's good, /r/leagueoflegends! It's that time of the week once more - Free Talk Tuesday's back again for our usual song-and-dance. Hope you've all had a good weekend!

    Aphelios is set to hit Live servers (alongside Diana's mini-rework..can't wait to get my hands on that) this week! We've had a bit of time to mess around with our Lunari Swiss Army Knife-ADC and some folks are already putting up numbers on the champion as we've seen during MSI through Uzi. Will he dominate pro play like some of our other recent additions, or will he simply be too difficult to be worth bringing out? Time will tell, but you're free to share your takes here!

    The Night and Dawn event is also following close behind Aphelios and Alune's approach - Soraka is looking to end the conflict between Chaos and Order once and for all. Personally I find myself aligned with Order but I can't quite figure out why...

    That's it for this week! I'll let y'all off the preamble-hook now. Thread's all yours so do as you please, but remember to follow or FTT Rules: talk shop, play nice and as always, have a good week!!

    PSA: Poro King no longer allows you pick your champion; it's a randomized system like ARAM

    Liandry's Torment is VERY effective

    Posted: 10 Dec 2019 09:46 AM PST

    Liandry's Torment is VERY effective

    Hi all,

    Some of you may have seen my post about how efficient Adaptive Helm is; along with that item's passive, I also think that Liandry's Torment's passive burn isn't very easy to understand intuitively, so I wanted to try and explain the power of the item in a way that might be easier to appreciate. It's obvious that it's good against HP stackers in general, but how do we compare the item's power to the power of other AP items in an objective way? There are all these variables like health, burn lengths, etc.

    Fear not! I have translated the passive burn into the equivalent of flat AP so that this item can be more easily compared to the other options available. Basically, the process is this:

    - Compile a list of potential health values

    - Calculate the magic damage done by the passive burn (one tick and 3 ticks for both normal and empowered burns, roughly covering the basic possible scenarios) for each health value

    - Divide the magic damage by an ability's AP ratio (this gives you the amount of flat AP needed to deal an equivalent amount of damage, so the "effective AP" of the passive)

    - Add that to the flat AP that Liandry's already provides

    - There you go! You get the total effective AP that Liandry's Torment gives for a particular health amount and a particular ability.

    I made some graphs that hopefully show up here (first time trying Google Sheets). I used Ryze Q, Karthus Q, and Akali Q as case studies for Liandry's, showing the effective AP that the item provides to each ability for given health values and burn amounts. The intuition here is that a lower AP ratio will mean that Liandry's is worth more in effective AP, since you would need more AP to match the same amount of burn damage on the ability.

    https://preview.redd.it/ggd844jpdu341.png?width=846&format=png&auto=webp&s=5247409e7fa22bf86f8fff6ff79012830aab7754

    https://preview.redd.it/lf6s9m3rdu341.png?width=953&format=png&auto=webp&s=dc040db1e3ad916b7ee9c1c4df04b11c70486bbf

    I'm actually more surprised by the effective AP gained at the lower health values rather than the higher ones! I knew it would be good at like 4000 HP, but it seems like it's highly effective even at lower health values. Akali's Q, for instance, has a sizable AP ratio, but Liandry's is still worth an incredible amount of AP in terms of damage depending on how you space out your Q's (even if you spam them with no regard for this and no CC, the passive still doubles the effective AP of the item at one tick of the normal burn). I didn't even consider the "madness" passive damage amplification in any of this! Again, I'm sorry for any legibility issues, Google Sheets was being a bit of a pain. I find this to be really interesting, hopefully you guys think the same! Let me know if I made any obvious calculation errors here, I don't want to misinform anybody.

    EDIT: I just wanted to make sure you guys know that this is NOT an additive thing. It's not like you can add up the effective AP Liandry's provides to each ability for some massive AP number; each skill will have a different AP ratio and a different amount of flat AP necessary to match the Liandry's burn damage in whatever case.

    Rumoured LCS format changes from Hotline League

    Posted: 10 Dec 2019 10:11 AM PST

    https://www.twitch.tv/videos/519485536

    I watched Travis to see if his interviews had improved on Hotline league, and he hinted a few times that there had been format leaks (and there have been mentions before that the format changes next season were the biggest since the bo3 era)

    All we have so far...

    - Monday night games

    - Best of 3 not returning

    - Academy to be involved more in the schedule

    - Seemingly the same amount of games?

    - Hyped games on monday night

    - LCS only change (but LEC apparently has its own changes coming)

    - Mark being on the show probably stopped further discussion

    My guesses

    - 3 Best of 1's Sun/Mon. Hyped matches for monday night

    - 4 Best of 1s Sat

    - 1 Academy game sprinkled in on Sun/Monday, maybe 1 sat too.

    Marksman Ranges of Auto Attacks and Abilities

    Marksman Ranges of Auto Attacks and Abilities

    I wanted to create an infographic showing the relative attack ranges of ADCs. I also created one with their abilities to show who can outrange who given what abilities in a clear format. Let me know if I messed any of the calculations up (e.g. Kalista's rend was my own calculation).

    EDIT1: These graphs are to gauge distances in bot lane matchups so that's why some champions that are marksmen are not included.

    December 12th is the first day where it is possible to own 1000 Different Skins.

    Posted: 10 Dec 2019 12:56 PM PST

    Currently there are 997 available skins to own. With the release of Dawnbringer Soraka, Nidalee, and Karma, and Nightbringer Aphelios, Vladimir, Lee Sin, and Soraka on December 12th, there will be a total of 1004 (1005 depending on when the Prestige Edition of Lee Sin is released.) Skins available to own.

    Interesting factoid that really only affects the whales, I personally will not be hitting 1000 until December 17th, when 4 more skins (Sugar Rush Collection) are released.
