It's kinda pointless to comment on champ strength as soon as they come out. Wait a couple days until people have gotten used to what she can do then tell me whether she is op or not.

Confirmed Orianna is amazing. Been using the build in the spotlight with respectable success. Will try nashors though, solid idea.

I just played a game with my good friend, who is good at the game, with the champ. I've given just what I've seen, but I've played with a good Ori and against a bad one. She's balanced- in the right hands, she's great but if not she's gonna die hard. She's about as squishy as Vayne.

Thanks Kor, lemme know how it goes. Also I'd probably be able to port the majority of my Koggy build over to her with the exception of Madred's, Malady and SotD would also fit really well.
Double also, she is creepy as FUCK. They got right in the little area of the uncanny valley that seems universally creepy to everyone.

Alright, Nashors is the perfect early-mid game item for her. Branching out the AP is easy enough from there, perhaps hat before AA though; AA gave me the pool for longer fights, but lacked umph. I'm thinking Rylai's for cheesedick perma-slows.

I just played Swain for the first time, and he seems really fucking good. Whats the deal with him?

Yeah, Swain is freaking insanely awesome. Level Torment and when you hit 6 you're gonna be a near-impossible to kill solo champ and deal ridiculous AoE bullshit in teamfights. Until he gets his ult though he's kinda eh.

You wanna talk "eh," let's talk Kayle until she's at least level 6. Jesus christ. (Oh, by the way, I play casually and STILL don't know what the hell you guys are taking about on half this thread.)

[Vlambo]

I understand about every third word.

I fucking love Kayle, agree with everything said, and sob silently until her rework buff. Also even past 6, Kayle's kinda worthless. She isn't so much level dependent as she is item dependent; I'm actually confident that a Level 2 Kayle could off a Level 6 mid champion if they had the items to do it.

play support champ with a carry and baby sit them

laugh as inability to farm means nothing because she does well without gear.


swain is a decent ap carry with less burst and more dots.
his defenses get shutdown however, in higher level play, as people will likely pick up an executioners calling, and with the GP rework his passive is a bitch to deal with.
he's near impossible to gank without some hard cc though, you can easily shut 2-3 people down with one snare, and anyone that decides to stick around with your q. a lot of people underestimate him.

Her ratios aren't enough to reliably do that, even with her steroid innate. Also she's damage support, not pure on Soraka healbot support. Yes, she has a heal, but its primary use is to aid in a chase. Either way, you can't say she does well without gear when she needs it to do fucking anything.

[zaneyard]

her ratios are shit

get support gear

[Badgerman of DOOM]

Then you cripple her support abilities, believe it or not.

[zaneyard]

well she's a shitty carry

[Badgerman of DOOM]

well she's a shitty carry

point is she's shitty all around why is why she's getting hit with the buff dick

[Surf314]

I got orianna, she's actually a lot of fun to play but I don't think she is OP like a lot of the new champs have been at launch.

yeah so buying blitz asap

Blitz seems to be a good combo with a ranged class or a melee one. Just rocket fist, pull back, overdrive, power fist, ult. Target is hopefully dead.
