Crowd Control. Means to control a crowd. In this case its attempting to make one person completely useless by continuously knocking them up.

Quote from name:Dem0nS1ayer

How exactly do you "CC"?

You. I can't be...FUCKING SERIOUS BRAIN EXPLODE ALREADY. Stupid... :disgust:

You've played League for how long, and you're still fucking terrible. Do you read anything that goes on in game, or are you just there for the pretty colors? Seriously?

Sigh. Now that my headache is back, might as well be civil.

CC = crowd control. If you knew how to read, you'd see

Neither Cleanse nor QSS do anything other than remove CC debuffs. That means stun, slow, snare, taunt, knockups, knockbacks (yes, if timed correctly they literally cancel the knockback), attack speed slows, blinds, exhaust, etc. are negated.

By that you can infer that anything that debilitates your champion's statistics can be considered CC. One exception is attack speed reduction and damage reduction; though they certainly fall under the definition of "debilitating", they're generally not considered CC.

If no one ever tells me anything, I'm never going to learn it.

If you don't investigate things for yourself, you're never going to learn it anyway.

... But CC was most basic thing for a gamer.

If all else fails, crowbar the fucker

This. If you read it in game and you don't ask, where does the blame lie? If you don't read it in game, then there are forums and IIRC several of the "summoner spotlight" things reference CC at least once. It's not like the previous page is the first place ever that you could've seen it. Taking initiative to learn isn't something that can be taught easily.

CC = Crowd Control. Stuns, knock-up/back, slows, fear, etc.

Edit: Shit, new page

Edit 2, electric boogaloo: Why all the hate on someone asking? CC, while common in League, is an MMO term. Not everyone knows it.

None.

I assume you haven't played with him. To make a long and windy explanation short, he needs to do more looking up than blindly asking things.

haters gonna hate on nooby Demon. :awesome:

Don't attack her unless you've got her ult on you?
Also, of course it won't get rid of her ult. QSS is a buyable Cleanse or with a slightly longer CD. Neither Cleanse nor QSS do anything other than remove CC debuffs. That means stun, slow, snare, taunt, knockups, knockbacks (yes, if timed correctly they literally cancel the knockback), attack speed slows, blinds, exhaust, etc. are negated. Not a non-debilitating Poppy ult. It does none of these things. If the person she ulted was enough of a tool, he'd instantly run leaving you to effectively fight a 4v5, if that many of your teammates are alive after her ult is over.

Poppy doesn't even need a near-Kayle ult. Her stupid fucking passive (seriously, reduces incoming damage by HALF if she would take more than a % [20 iirc] of her current hp), plus an armor-granting skill, makes her one of the tankiest little shits in the game. On top of that, throw in massive burst and you've got a champion that is massively tanky and still able to deal damage. Though fun fact: she's barely played because other champions like Xin have a built-in blink, slow, knockup, and lifesteal even off of towers, as well as the flash that most people carry.

EDIT: Forgot about your original question. You essentially ignore her and hope that the person she's chasing either can stun or you can kill them in a 4v4, then attack her. Or get true damage, that's an effective counter that not many champs have. If you're seeing Poppy in enough games to worry, then play her yourself.

EDIT2: Oh my. 81% attack speed reduction in that last game. I LOVE MALPHITE + FROZEN HEART + RANDUINS.
Their Xin was crying :awesome:

She did that annoying thing where she ulted the wimp of the team then raped everyone else. That shits broken. I'll have to learn to play her so I can counter her effectively.

None.

As stated, this is the only correct way to play Poppy. Feed on the weakest link.

but how to counter THAT?

None.

Honestly, besides hard CC, you just have to outplay her. If she's the reason you're dying, don't commit to a fight unless her ult is down. If you're playing in a higher ELO, this will take a lot of practice, in a lower one you can usually get one to blow her ult.

Relevant to this thread.

We just won a 4v5 that we could not have won if it was a 5v5. I congratulate our Ez on leaving. It was a no-tank game on our side, and there was nothing they could do about it :awesome:

Soraka got nerfed to hell. awesome. :awesome:

None.

Maldred is my summoner name! Add me to that list

None.

So, I saw the DotA 2 reveal trailer today. The first hero revealed looked 100% like Ashe, but with a different skin tone, red robes, and different eye colors, BUT SHE HAD THE SAME HAIR, THE SAME CLOAK, AND THE SAME OVERALL APPEARENCE. I think I laughed pretty hard when I saw that.

Also, if you go on the Escapist's website (those guys who sponser Zero Punctuation), you'll see a ton of bashing, and a lot more LoL support then DotA 2.

I mean fuck, if I want to play Ashe, I'm not going to fucking pay for her.

It's not that dota2 is copy pasting wc3dota which is wc3 which Ashe looks like. And then dota2 has that Orc in the trailer...
