The 9th Layer trolololol

IllegallySane Wrote:Oh, big question before I dive into LoL. How long do games typically last? I don't mind 5-20 minute games. If it ends up being 30~45 minutes or longer that'll be hurting my urge to play, because unless it's an MMORPG I don't want to sit that long at a time.

Summoner rift (The 5vs5 Classic Map) Usually last about 30min-1h maybe even more depending on how good/bad you/yourteam/yourenemies are.

Twisted Treeline (the 3vs3 Classic Map) Usually last 20-40min.

and Crystal Scar (the 5vs5 Dominion Map) Can range from 10min to 1h Big Grin (My personal Best is 9min with 57secs)


Original League of Legends (LoL) Thread - KajitiSouls - 2011-09-29

Statistically for me:

Average coop vs. AI game (you must know what you are doing and you must be halfway decent): 23 minutes
Range: 15-60 minutes

Average normal blind pick Summoner's Rift: 38 minutes
Range: 17-80 minutes
Global range: 12-164 minutes (wth, 2.6 hours?)

If quick games are your thing, Dominion/Crystal Scar has you covered. Games last anywhere between 5-25 minutes, with 18 being an average.

Twisted Treeline, who cares about that? Its time numbers are only somewhat less than Summoner's Rift, but it could also carry into being an hour-long game.

I used to think the exact same thing but then got used to it and don't mind the 40~ min games. Only get annoyed when a game is going slow where no team does nothing and it feels longer, or when games get past the 60 min mark (I've played almost 1000 games and I'm pretty sure this is less than 3% of the games)

Just play Dominion. A good 20 minutes max.

That's pretty much my mindset lol
1-3 games is usually enough for me for the day, unless I play with friends.

Watching Guinsoo stream atm, playing Vladimir versus Anivia in mid. He's getting smacked silly by FF GS FB, what the heck lol. Maybe I should do some tryharding Anivia over the weekend, see if I can improve my skillshots.

On another note, I have yet to see this mythical FF + wall lane combo Phreak has been talking about. Blargh.

EDIT: In spite of his team not having a tank, Guinsoo and his team won. The comeback point was when their jungler WuKong smite stole Baron from the other team >_>

I guess it's nice for <Level 30 players, like myself Rolleyes

Said I already got a code. Another reason why AlienWare is bullshit.

Not sure why anyone would want XP boosts, getting to level 30 faster means you're just screwing yourself out of free ip.

???

Other than lvls 1 to 15 or so, IP flow is independent of leveling rate. Getting to lvl 30 faster means you get dem masteries and rune slots faster.


Original League of Legends (LoL) Thread - SolicShooter - 2011-09-30

So I found out I love people that outlane a lot of standard picks. Examples are Yorick, Urgot, Morgana, Caitlyn. I just love them! Any suggestions on what my next champ will be? I've been thinking Swain or Leblanc might be good to pick up because they seem like champs that'll dominate their lane.

Has anyone unlocked all champs with solely IP here by the way? I've around 35 champs now but they seem to be coming out faster then I can buy them and there isn't a reliable paying mechanism in The Netherlands here for my situation so I'm stuck with just IP. And then rune pages are so expensive too. I only have 4 now but I think I could make one fitting for both Amumu and Fiddlesticks so that I can have another unique one. So far I've those for both my junglers and AP and AD pages.

Another issue I've experienced is that my loading rate significantly slows down 97%>100% and then it takes like 20-30 seconds before I actually load into the game, but I don't have problems at all once in game. I already have a bad loading speed compared to others and I'm always the last one to enter the chat room after a game so it might just be my computer/internet. But I just want to find out if it's something I could fix easily. I'm always green and at around 18-20 (I think it's called Ping?).


Original League of Legends (LoL) Thread - Corn - 2011-09-30

Purplefire44 and Kajitii are rather close to getting all the champs. Purplefire did buy some rp, but I don't think he spent them all on champions. I don't think Kajitii has as many champions as purp but he does have like 9 full rune pages, that noob Rolleyes.

Get a tank you boob Rolleyes. If you like outlaning people I'd say pick Cho'Gath (well, he doesn't really outharass, but he sure can lane forever...), Garen (okay fine, he's not a tank, more like an offtank, but oh god his early game...)

If you really want another AP carry just pick LeBlanc, she's easily the #1 pre-6 champ. Heck you could probably get a kill per level if you play aggressively enough. Only thing, though, even with 10+ kills, her late game is so terribly it's not even funny.

Yay, 10 wins straight in dominion Big Grin

Wat. I'm not even halfway to getting all the champs. Admittedly nearly half of my unlocked champs I got for free now, but nowhere near the full house.

Dam I've been doing HORRIBLE like the last 10 games and when I'm finally doing nice we lose cause now the rest of my team sucks.... and we had our tank dc.

Disagree on the last bit. If there is any squishy on the team she's still going to decimate them. It's not as easy as it is early/mid game but her cooldowns become pretty short she's like a mage dps.

@Solic I'm in total agreement with you. I love champs that can dominate their lane because it forces enemies to back frequently missing out on gold and exp and hurting their progress. LeBlanc is definitely someone who I hardly ever lose my lane with. Unless I get downright outplayed I can get early kills and continue to kill my lane opponent. Cass and Orianna are also good picks. Because of their harassment utilities and zoning.

Also on the topic of owned champs. I'm at 36 now and haven't bought RP. I could have 38 but I have no desire to buy Yi and Ryze, lol.

Well the thing is, I really really dislike tanky characters. Well it's not that I dislike them but I just love the risk-reward system you get with squishy characters. For that reason I don't really play solo top at all although I do have some options like Teemo, Yorick, Singed if I'm forced up there anyway in ranked. I remember playing Leblanc on a free week once and she was a bit too.... unchallenging for me. But what does it matter anyway I still have a ton of champions I want to buy, just discovering Urgot/Yorick in 2 days made me realize I love to outlane people.

Could just farm Dominion for easy IP if you really need it.

Did you check your "Key Giveaway"? People had the same problem, but you still get it.
I got my code, and 2 more, easily.
