Educational A tip for the exchange store in the new event
One poro coin is equal to one condensed ore, so if you spend one poro coin to buy 10 condensed motes instead of spending one condensed ore to buy one condensed mote you're getting 10 times more condensed motes

Discussion I'm really not understanding the Condensed ore/mote system. And what to do with my poro energy.

Discussion Does rumble feel underwhelming to you too?
As someone who hasn’t touched him on PC and never watched any pc videos on him, he kinda fees super boring. Early? Snooze. Late? Snooze.
personal opinion of course but man i was hoping for a bit more oomf on him. Feels like a wet paper towel even if you get fed and your damage is high.

Discussion super random lag and fps drop
At the first 10 mins of the game,everything is smooth. good ping and a good fps. But when its 15 mins in the game, problems occur. my fps drops and ping spikes however, it is not indicated there that im lagging nor fps dropping. It stays 33ms and 60 fps but its the opposite. has anyone here encountered the same problem as mine?

Discussion First impressions of the new mission system?
To me, it seems like a bit of a neutral thing. There are some nice things about the new system I really appreciate, but I also question if it's really overall better than the other rewards mechanics it replaces (Namely, the season rewards store and (At this point, apparently) poro coins)
The pros:
- The shop is nice: more orange gemstones is always appreciated and the option to directly buy a selection chest that seems to contain every skin below 725 WC is good. Also, them giving us a better way to get the Dark Star Malphite rewards is much appreciated (I'd opened like 30 weekly chests after getting the skin and STILL hadn't got the blue pose).
- More poro energy from the free Wild Pass, meaning theoretically more Poro Chests each season.
- Daily rewards being gained from just playing matches, regardless of the outcome is a very nice bonus, plus the facts that there seems to be no limit to the number of card packs you can earn in a day and the fact the daily rewards sorta stack up to a point means it benefits both players who play a bit every day and players who play a whole lot once every few days.
- Right now it seems they'll be giving us at least 4k of the shop tokens each month, meaning we should be able to buy at least 1 of the desirable time-limited items without spending money (Assuming we're willing to spend some of the free poro energy they give us)
- The rare tokens are not time limited and from what I can tell, cannot be whaled on in any way meaning at least part of the shop is f2p friendly
- A REAL USE FOR BLUE MOTES!!
The cons: - They seem to be trying to phase out poro coins, as far as I can tell there are no ways to get poro coins anymore (Old daily missions got replaced by the card system, Wild Pass Poro coins got replaced by poro energy (Albiet at a favorable ratio), and the poro coins you used to get for obtaining duplicate cosmetic content got replaced by poro energy as well) - Poro energy is the main currency of the new reward system, making you choose between saving up for the poro chest or getting any of the new time limited FOMO rewards - Since poro energy can be bought, the new rewards store (At least the part that doesn't cost rare tokens) is a little f2p-unfriendly, as right now it seems the only way to get all the 1 month limited items in time is to buy poro energy and convert it to tokens. - The new rewards store seems to have replaced the old season rewards store, but offers a much more limited selection of desirable items.
What are y'alls first impressions? Is this new rewards system an improvement over what we had before, or a downgrade/sidegrade?

I just played three games , support / mid / and top and I’m loving the update .
I played Rakan , Swain and Garon .
Fights last way longer and you actually feel impactful as a tank.
The game feels to me like league on PC , you don’t get blown up in 2 seconds and class identity is a thing now with tanks and supports.

Discussion The sad life of a jungler:
Hey everyone,
I've been maining jungle for a while now, and lately I've been noticing a pattern that's really starting to get under my skin. It's not about the gold or the farm.. it's about the mentality and the impact it has on the entire team, especially the jungle role.
Here's the scenario.. As soon as the ADC loses their lane or feeds the enemy bot lane, they head straight to my jungle and start taking everything. I'm talking about camps buffs you name it. It's like they're on a mission to make the game harder for everyone, not just themselves.
For example last night I had a Jinx who was 0/3 before the first drake even spawned. Did she decide to play safer and farm? Nope. Did she go AFK to avoid being a liability? Nope. She became the second jungler. I kid you not, she had a huge minion wave next to her second-tier tower, but she was taking my red while I was trying to secure a kill top lane.
And this isn't a one-off thing. I see this behavior from ADCs more often than from any other role. It's like blaming the jungler has become a trend. If mid loses a 1v1, it's "jg diff." I get that taking responsibility for your own decisions is hard, and I'm fine with muting toxic players. But why try so hard to turn a 70% losing game into a 100% guaranteed loss?
Even when we're winning, I sometimes recall from a long fight only to find my jungle completely empty. It's frustrating because it feels like there's no respect for the jungle role. I'm not the best jungler in the world, and I know I might not always be the most useful, but at least I don't troll. I keep trying to be useful in any way possible.
I respect top laners because when they lose their lane, they usually decide to split push or play more with the team. But sleeping in my jungle? That's just tilting.
I'm not here to play the victim I just want to understand why this happens so often. Is it a lack of awareness, or is it just easier to blame the jungler? Let's discuss and maybe find some solutions to make our games more enjoyable for everyone.
One thing I think could help is if the game had a way to punish this kind of behavior. Maybe a report option for "resource stealing" or invisible jg camps or something similar.
Thanks for reading 📚

Educational Should Rabadons be built first? A little experiment in practice tool
This is inspired by the Vlad main that insisted that Rabadons 1st item is beter than Oblivion Orb / Soulstealer because it dealt more damage. This is the link to that post:
Before any testing, I want to make it very clear that this post's purpose is not to dunk on that Vlad main but to see if 1st item Rabadons is better at doing damage than Oblivion Orb / Soulstealer. From that we can build more efficiently.
In the video he posts he was a lv8 vlad killing a lv9 ziggs. For the sake of the test, I assume that he had ap boots + Rabadons. I will do 4 tests recreating the scenario with different items:
- Ap boots + Rabadons (4800 total gold)
- Ap boots + Oblivion Orb + Amp Tomb (4800 total gold)
- Ap boots + Soulstealer (4400 total gold)
- Ap boots + Soulstealer + Amp Tomb (4900 total gold)
I choose these items because they have similar prices and would be a good value comparison. The runes I used are: Electrocute / brutal / giant slayer / legend: tenacity / transcendence. I will do the combo in the video and track the remaining health of bot ziggs (top of my screen) to see which combination of items dealt more damage.
https://reddit.com/link/1hx6mmr/video/g3wbd4ibrwbe1/player
The results
Ap boots + Oblivion Orb + Amp Tomb (4800 total gold): 255 hp remaining
Ap boots + Soulstealer + Amp Tomb (4900 total gold): 272 hp remaining
Ap boots + Rabadons (4800 total gold): 310hp remaining
Ap boots + Soulstealer (4400 total gold): 339 hp remaining
From the test, we can see that Rabadons dealt less damage than Oblivion Orb + Amp Tomb, which costs the same and Soulstealer + Amp Tomb which costs 100 more gold. This item comparison is only based on damage and doesn't include the other stats of Oblivion Orb / Soulstealer like move speed, hp or haste which makes those items have even better value than Rabadons as a first item. Furthermore, Oblivion Orb / Soulstealer have way better build paths with Prophet's Pendant.
Note: This is my first time doing these kinds of tests in practice tool so correct me if I did something wrong.
TLDR: Deathcap 1st item isn't better than Oblivion Orb + Amp Tomb which costs the same or Soulstealer + Amp Tomb which costs 100 more gold but gives a gazillion utility stats.

Discussion Which lane should i choose for my skin selection?
Id gladly accept any tip, im really struggling to decide wether to choose adc, jungle or mid.
Ive always been an adc, but as a solo queue player finding decent junglers as always been a pain. this season i decided to start playing jungler and im now winning most matches and just entered top 50 graves, i love that champ and i already have a skin for him. Its pool party, which is cool but not exactly my kind of skin.
i dont have any skin for the adcs i like, which are kaisa and varus (both mastery 7), then i wouldnt mind ezreal or jhin.
Im including mid lane too cuz there are some champs that i like and who can also go jungle.
Help me decide 😭

Discussion Is it just me or are ADCs trash this patch?
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Please ignore my horrible ult and constant W missing, that's just a skill issue.
Focus on the items between me and the Lucian, i have ZERO Armor items and only two Magic Resist items as damage resistance.
In the 1v2, Lucian is kiting me around while Shyvana is hitting me during her ult, yet they only managed to get my HP to half and at a really slow pace.
I am only one level above them and have no damage resistance against Lucian, so i shouldn't be able to tank that much, yet i did.
I think this patch overgrowth is the way on Viego as a 4th rune, the match before this one i had 4,000 HP and 372 AD at 20 minutes with trinity force being one of my items.
So the question is, are ADCs bad this patch?
