faced a maokai (as maokai) on a free week. Tips against sapling: Stay near your minions and walk away when he throws it at you so that it explodes on the minions. Also, if you can't outrun it, don't try to. It just zones you out of the area if you try to. Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, don't run into your lower-hp, squishier teammate, or they'll take the hit. Against people who know how to avoid my saplings, I'm basically forced to use it as nothing but a brushcheck and farming tool.
