Release notes and Jarvan IV spotlight are up.

Posted on at 8:55 PM by Moobeat
Expecting patch tomorrow with the advent of the patch notes and spotlight. Patch noes below, spotlight further down.

As for my thoughts about the patch, there anything that merits me picking up my torch and pitchfork . Needed buffs to Karma will hopefully make her viable. I've yet to see one since patch week. Garen's usability has plummeted since he was dethroned a few patches ago, no surprise in the small buffs there. Sort of weird Morde and Leblanc buffs, neither of them feel like they really need it, much less those specific abilities. I wonder if the buff to Trueshot Barrage is the long awaited "fix" the forum goers have been raving for. Doesn't seem all that impressive, looking at, what, a 200~ damage increase late game in a meta that is full of tanky Demacians.

Also, on a bit of a "phew" note, I was expecting to see a few Maokai buffs. People were a flame on the forums and in game complaining about how useless Maokai is, but he is vastly underrated. His 1-10 lane phase is amazing and couple him with another CC champion and you can keep them at their turret or score a first blood. Even solo lane, his passive produces so much healing that if you stay dominate with your baby toss you can dominate your lane. I'm glad they didn't go up his coefficients or anything, his role of a support/off tank is delicious and lets him play more like a Morgana, which is a slot we don't have many champions to fill.

  7. Howdy just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
    The words in your article seem to be running off the screen in Internet explorer.
    I'm not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with web browser compatibility but I figured I'd post to let you know.
    The style and design look great though! Hope you
    get the issue resolved soon. Many thanks

  8. I do believe all of the ideas you've introduced on your
    post. They're very convincing and will definitely work. Still, the posts are too brief for beginners.

    Could you please prolong them a little from subsequent time?
    Thanks for the post.

  10. The reviews on the spray seemed decent, and the
    price even more so. To browse your way to brown skin, go
    to Care4yourskinshop. If you apply too much lotion in one area, it
    could turn your skin a darker color and the complexion of your skin would look uneven throughout your body.

    It will be necessary to exfoliate the skin in all areas that you are applying the project.
    They have been able to this by using sunless tanning lotions that are safe,
    reliable, and effective. Having both of these options makes it easier than ever to get the perfect color.

    Expect questions that deal with how to protect sensitive areas of client's bodies and
    caring for your airbrush equipment so it's hygienically maintained.
    These rays can also cause sunburns in people that have fair skin or
    stay in the sun too long. A sun-kissed glow makes you look healthier and thinner.
    These can be either applied with the help of experts from the salon or by oneself within the confines of one's home.

  14. Tanning allows you to experiment with different styles and looks.

    This makes it quite beneficial for vitiligo
    patients as they can pick the right concentration that matches the color they need to successfully camouflage
    the white patches. This premium brand of spray tanning carries a wide range of
    quality sprays designed for tanning that would suit all types of skin.
