Ian Steph Ian Clark Curry Clark <| sep |> You better post everything from raww to here then <| sep |> They used to when there were 17 clubs but travel costs were too high . It ' s easier on the players and saves money to have you play more against closer clubs . The whole thing is moot with the league expanding beyond 20 because a balanced schedule would drag the season on too long . <| sep |> The store didn ' t have any <| sep |> I ' m actually super excited for a future LV road trip , tripIdeally Seattle comes in then we get to fly Allegiant to LV after <| sep |> I keep runic echoes because I want the wards from the jungle item and the MS AP stay relevant for Ivern pretty much all game . Rylais isn ' t that good of an item on Ivern the passive doesn ' t augment any of his abilities one already slows and the other is a root , which leave only the AP and health . Since you get more relative health from your shields anyway , it ' s honestly only the AP portion contributing from the item . Windspeakers since you ' ll be shielding almost all game I pretty much only ever invade topside red buff because my typical gameplan is to get my toplaner FB by having a level red buff advantage while the enemy toplaner is still only level one and laners almost never take their escape skill at level 1 if they have one . The reason I said I invade at 127 is because by the time I get to red , the first waves should be about crashing so if top or mid collapse on me , they ' ll be losing CS in lane . Add in that Ivern taking Q at level 1 means if 1 of them wants to catch me , they ' ll most likely have to burn flash . Remember when I said Ivern plays just fine from behind ? If a laner burns flash to get to me , it just makes a followup gank to that lane almost a guaranteed kill in the next 4 minutes . If no laners come , I drive off the enemy jungler by skirmishing him while the brambleback is aggro ' d because it won ' t attack me . The mentality you have to adapt with Ivern is your job is not to carry games Your job is to set your teammates up to carry . Ward up the enemy jungle , steal away buffs , and give kills over to your laners . My last ranked game was vs an Elise that was 91 at 20 minutes while I was 18 . Sure I was dying a lot , but it was from either warding up the map and drawing the enemy away from objectives , or taking the hits to feed gold into my laners . We won that game because at the end , I was more effective by slapping 2 K HP of shields onto our ADC and letting him go to town than the Elise was at removing someone from a teamfight . Lategame as Ivern , try to land a q on a priority target and let your real tanksbruisers go in for the damage . Throw your R on a dps target and let that badboy draw thier damage , while you save your shields for your squishies . Also the moment a teamfight breaks out , toss bushes on your adc so they can juggle in and out of them to break vision and frustrate the enemy .
