    Jaime, as a character over all, gets better the further in the series you go.  I don't know if Gentleman would be an accurate honorary, but he is honorable anyway.

     

    With how much Spirit of the Elder Lizard has been getting nerfed, Spirit of the Ancient Golem becomes the clear winner if the CDR addition goes live.  Will make my jungling repertoire more viable anyways.

    Do you think building Golem instead of Lizard on Hecarim would be the better choice with the CDR addition?

    First team to five Black Cleavers wins.  YAY.  I LOVE THAT.  Oh wait, I play tanks.  Not only did the new jungle shit on us, but they also made penetration calculate differently and made our only strong point in the game (early game jungle) weak as shit, preventing us from doing anything late game.  Our items are more expensive to get, less effective when we do get them, and then we have Black Cleaver.  What a brilliant idea that was.  Tanks are no longer viable in this game because of items like this and a reduction in income from the jungle.

    IP bans don't really work because it isn't difficult to use a proxy to get around it.  It's also hard to do because college campuses (a large amount of players).  IP addresses are constantly changing on college campuses and you would wind up banning the whole campus for a short period of time.

    They did so many things to hurt tanks in this patch.  They changed how penetration was calculated, making penetration items more powerful, they lowered the amount of resistances on every item that had them, they increased the cost of every item that had them, they gave most tanks less gold to work with (because they jungle for the most part), they made ganking harder with sightstone and the inability to buy boots as a first item, they made buying oracles a really daunting prospect since the wards that get cleared aren't really worth clearing outside of taking away sight for the 10 seconds it will take them to replace it, they made Black Cleaver utterly stupid (I mean really? Stackable?), they made jungling in general harder by increasing the health of the camps, they made a gold sink item that gives zero helpful stats outside of killing jungle creeps, and then made it a requirement to jungle (with many people), but hey, they increased tank itemization.  Bulwark is a good item.  I mean it basically has the stats of Aegis in season 2, and is way more expensive.  That's good, right? Iceborn Gauntlet is a good item.  Is it affordable? No, but it's a good item.

    That was the first time he'd played Teemo since the patch, but he's been playing some weird kind of Teemo for forever, so there wasn't much change.  Both games were good though.  You started 6/2 that second game though, and were able to buy Wriggles.....T_T just....I don't even.

    If by efficient you mean that every single piece of gold is used, then yes, the new jungle is gold efficient.  Machete is a gold sink as it helps against only the creeps and means that you may as well have zero items when coming up against any laner for a gank (discounting buffs).  Aegis and Bulwark are still close to the best items in the game because of what they do for the team, not just for you.  The upgrades for Machete are okay, I guess.  When you can afford them.  I went 3/4/15 (against Gentleman Gustaf hehe), and only wound up with only 11.4 k gold.  I had built a Spirit Stone, a Ruby Sightstone, A Philosopher's Stone, Runic Bulwark, Mobility Boots, and a Glacial Shroud.  That is two finished late game items.  If I count the boots.  There's something wrong here, and I'm going to call it the jungle.
