I kinda want Olaf just for the Brolaf skin...
don't
olaf is in a really bad place right now
he's a good counterpick for cc heavy teams, but you can't know that until draft mode

I started LoL 3 days ago, you lost me after counterpick.

Don't worry, I'm still stuck on Brolaf. God I want that skin. Besides, he can't be any worse than Kayle! ;D
imagine magikarp
that's olaf
let me explain it all for you
CC (stun, slow, etc) heavy teams often rely on one champion (the carry) to do all the damage because more cc = less damage. a champion with less cc in it's kit will often do more damage
olaf is a great counter pick (someone you pick to counter the other enemy team) because he can use his ult to negate all the cc that the enemy team throws at him and run straight at the enemy carry which does all the damage. however, in the common meta of tanky deeps, the damage is balanced somewhat across the whole team. so what happens on more damage oriented teams like that is olaf ults in to go kill squishy carry, but the whole team just focuses him down. obviously you can build him tanky like you're supposed to, but you can't tank everything, his kit doesn't give him much to survive getting bursted down.

If you like Olaf, then buy Jarvan IV or Xin Zhao. Both are excellent champions without many of his weaknesses.
Oh yeah, my name is Greatbaconbits, you fools should add me so we can play some games together eventually
Yorick looks like he needs to be toned down, even before release >.>
In other news, why did it take me so long to get Xin? Fucking uncannily strong champ.
I like Jarvin, he's pretty cool.
Oh yeah, my name's The Cap, if anyone wants to derp with me.
Commando Lux
THERE IS A GOD!
Played my first game as Soraka, or whoever the free to play support is, and have to say that support is pretty fun actually.
Also, game name is Wyrmidon, if anyone wants to Rage at me for not knowing the game. :p

Hey, we can be noobs together. Also, Soraka is cool, but if you're playing with incompetent teammates she's super frustrating.
On an unrelated note, I was playing a 3v3 this evening and we were getting worked on pretty hard (our first layer of towers down, they had 2:1 kills on us) but somehow we managed to rally and push on for the win. Was a pretty sweet feeling especially cause the Oriana was being a dick and bragging.

Soraka is extra squishy but when built right can burst heal a fuck ton.
Phreak needs to do a dance.

Just carried a 3v3 as Warwick despite one of our guys feeding them.

Yorick is bad apparently, summons only last 5 seconds and his stuff scales with AD.
Also Kayle got stealthrework but then it got stealthundone.
