Original League of Legends (LoL) Thread

 Spoiler

my best cho game and maybe best game in general. Im not really sure how it happened as i got off to a pretty slow start. I was lanning bottom with akali vs corki/amumu and not a whole lot happened for like the first 10 minutes or so, lots of poking and a few close calls for both sides but no deaths. My death was from going into the enemy team 5v1, i thought my team was closer to me than they were, but they got into the fight right as i died and got an ace so it all worked out.

Edit: My point is, i really never saw eve as a problem.

So you're okay with passivity her stealth is causing throughout the entire game?

Stealth heroes have never caused me to play more passive, if she's wasting all her time in stealth she wont get any farm and a lane ward protects you from any invis ganks.
Wards, miss calls and map awareness in general adds up to stealth heroes being fairly meh.

If a stealth hero is causing problems your support buys an invis ward and boom, problem solved.

brb warding the entire map and wasting gold just to stop 1 champion, thus putting me and the entire team behind in CS and farm.

Eve alone is causing some serious snowballing due to the gold cost of warding for the entirety of the match.

You played DotA yourself.
Rikimaru.
I rest my case.

You don't have to ward the entire map with invis wards, but during lanephase just get a laneward and lategame an oracle or carry the wards with you and place them at places where you could get ganked.

Invisible heroes never caused problems in DotA and HoN, i don't get why she causes passivity in LoL.

inb4 adding stealth like in SC2.

How does stealth work there?

More or less the same but you can 'see' the blur of the hero where they're invis, it's not easy to spot but it's not too hard either.

Apparently you haven't played against Eves who know what they're doing. Good Eves will carry an Oracles on them at all times, thus making your warding totally obsolete and making you waste gold, which leads back to my "Snowballing" statement.

Dota and HoN =/= LoL
What's there to not understand?

This.

Also, there's rumors floating around that Magma Chamber is being shelved for the time being, and that Riot is working on a new map instead.

And a rikimaru couldnt do the same? What prevents him from getting an eye and getting rid of all the wards?

I know that they're not the same games, i asked i don't get why she causes passivity, to me that does not make sense, even if they're not the same games the mechanics are more or less the same. Wards exist in both and eye/oracle exist in both.7

But whatever, if she's causing problems for you, fine. I just can't see the problem with stealth, never caused a problem before to me.

Did some co-op games as jungle Noct. What a blast. Really want to try Olaf.

I dunno how much truth could be behind that though, cos if you look at the website they put up for dreamhack, its all very Magma Chamber-esque.

And i like the idea of being blurry but not super obvious blurry for stealth.

By the way, what Graphics cards do you guys play with, and how good at they for LoL? Im getting a card when i get my desktop next week and i can afford a Radeon HD 5670, but idk if thats any good or not..

I've been losing so much lately, I'm 24 wins above loses now. Had 2 games with will, first lost where we had a horrible team, second game Bob joined us and we had a random cait that kicked ass and forced surrender. Anyway, finally broke those loses, had 5 or 6 in a row.

To be honest, I can't give you a full answer because I don't know most of the champs and their abilities on DotA. First place I would look though are possible abilities and what they do, such as how good of an escape set you can make, and how guaranteed you are to seal a kill.

I'm using a pass-me-down Nvidia GeForce 7900 GS. For some reason it complains that it's not getting enough power and will run at reduced capacity. Most likely my PSU, but I'm too lazy to do anything about it atm *shrugs*.

I run at least 1680x1050 resolution with high or very high settings in everything at 60 fps (30 when recording). Except effects, for some reason that shyts on my fps when there's a lot of that flying around, and certain champs cause a lag spike, like Lee Sin's Tempest or Karthus's ult.

So many Garens!

 One game with Bob and Manu

So me, Bob, and Manu queued up. Early game, I helped Bob get fed twice on 2 sets of double kills, but then he was somewhat shut down. Our Caitlyn, meanwhile, was getting fed herself, and during teamfights, we protected her so well she wasn't touched. And she was busy taking shots whenever she had the chance.

Of course, our fed Caitlyn carried us to victory.

I just finished a game where I used Trydamere. I was so-so until late-game phase, where in a teamfight, I pulled a triple kill while in Endless Rage mode (with Baron buff). Too bad I couldn't pull this off again as our Garen was too much of a p'ussy (excuse my language) to initiate. We lost.

To whoever made that, that's just f'ucking genius. xD

Why thornmail in that one?

I'm more confused by the opposing Ashe using Wriggles and setting up for Ghostblade. :f6:

Cause she's 0/6, though I've heard wriggles isn't that bad on her.

I've done that before in games where I was trying to rack up as much flat armour pen as I could. XD

Aren't I like, the only person that still thinks that?
