So I was about to play a One for All game mode in League. And when it came to voting I voted for nasus because he's tanky and powerful so of course I decided he would be a good one. Somehow, even though I was the only one who voted for Nasus, we we're all Nasus. And literally everyone on my team raged quit.

I like them. Jungling just got way more awesome. And I actually like the ward changes. I am not fond of the brush changes, but i will adjust.
A lot of people are upset about the jungle changes.
Right now it's seemingly better to run two people top with a relic shield, one bruiser one ranged burst. (Olaf/Syndra is pretty strong) With the XP changes you won't fall behind, you get 2 free wards from ward trinket so you're ungankable and with relic shield you won't be far behind from splitting CS.
I haven't jungled post patch so I can't speak to it from personal experience but everyone is saying it takes too long to get your first jungle item and supports are outgaining on you. Hopefully they'll either add on on-the-way build path to jungle items or increase gold gains from straight clears. With every lane having a free ward ganking has become a lot more challenging (top is impossible with the 3 brush change and a competent laner, mid was already hard to gank, bot is gankable if you're purple team otherwise good luck)

All I've been hearing is how supports are worthless now, especially Soraka/Sona/Nami due to ap reductions and shit. It makes me sad. I haven't played yet though.

A lot of people were worried about htat but I honestly don't see it. Soraka is pretty strong, can't speak for Sona or Nami. Janna is really strong as well.

If anything, Soraka has gotten stronger. Her heals now heal more based on how much health the target is missing. I'm not sure if that removed her passive that boosts her team's MR, but either way it seems good.

O.o I'm not seeing that at all. Most of my games since the preseason launched I have had either the most or very close to most gold on my team. It does suck a little that your gold gain is reliant on rushing your jungle item. But rushing jungle item was already a good option on many junglers anyways. I can see where it would hurt certain junglers, but it certainly doesnt make jungling unprofitable.
Junglers with a slower movement speed in particular I could see having issues since they will want to build boots early, and not building boots early slows their jungling. But anyone with a decent base movespeed should be fine.
Oh, and ganking has indeed become more difficult I will admit.
First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me-- and there was no one left to speak for me.

Fair enough. Like I said I haven't jungled yet, so it could just be whiners whining about changes.

I have to rant because I hate people sometimes.
I'm playing Ashe support because I can't stand to pick a primary support role because when my ADC does bad I can't do SHIT, and well Ashe's secondary is labelled as support so I use that to my advantage. Anyway my intuition is right because my ADC, a Quinn, is feeding like mad and I have the mid, a Cho'gath, who starts getting mad at me for builing AD items. So we get into a little argument, he's calling me names (like that's beyond the pale in League of Legends), I tell him Cho isn't a very good mid because of various reasons and that he's better as a tank, he then tells me there's no tank role in League and claims to be a smurf Platinum rank... Of course I don't believe him but... I mean seriously... Fucking trolls and/or fucking idiots in this game shit me off so much sometimes.
Because I can...

I have taken to just muting anyone who seems to be generally negative. Honestly even if they are good, if they are negative I couldn't give two shits what the have to say, I don't wanna hear it.

No, Poppy is literally OP. I went 11/4 with her last game. I'll give you my Poppy build if you want.

l0l I'm good. she has a beast late game but her early game so bad she's considered kind of a troll pick atm.

She's definitely not a champion I would play ranked matches with (once I get to ranked that is) but I just find her to be a fun champion to play when you get bored.

I mean I'm not saying you shouldn't play her, if you're the best poppy NA play her in ranked it doesn't matter - I'm just saying I wouldn't call her op.

I usually find that Poppy's only redeeming factor is her ability to shut down a teamfight with an ult at the right time. Other than that she's meh for me.

Her late game is absurd. If she (somewhat) successfully gets to late game she should be a free win but getting there without their top laner getting huge is a challenge.
