Original League of Legends (LoL) Thread

Unless the enemy team is strongly lacking any kind of CC, in which case I would go for Boots of Swiftness, or Zerker Greaves, if you feel ballsy.

Just need a refresher: which champs should I look out for CC?

Why do people still build tank mundo?

It's stupid....

Nearly every champ has some sort of stun or slow. CC = anything that stuns / slows / snares / surpress / silence.

If we all played together in ranked premade 5's I can bet you we'd top the ladder eventually.

Srs. Gee just doesnt wanna make it to high elo too fast. We'd make all the ppl who play 1000+ ranked games look bad if we made it there in 300-400 tops.

So after I finish my Tanking rune page (~9K IP to go >_>), should I go for a Ranged Rune page?

just to add to this, im almost certain merc treads dont work against ww/malz ult or knock ups(xin,alistar, blitz)



To avoid double post: what runes are you getting exactly will? Something like magic/armor pen red, mana regen yellows and cd reduction blues are a very versatile set up that can save you a ton of IP until you figure out exactly what you want, both champion and rune wise. Armor yellows for mana less champs are also cheap.

I'm not going to quote the whole list of champions, but here's what I look out for in order of priority when playing a carry:
1.) Nukers/assassins
2.) Hard CCers with 1+ second duration (suppressions, stuns, taunts, fears, knockups).
3.) Snares and knockbacks (Gragas' 1 minute ult comes heavily to mind).
4a.) Slows that last 2+ seconds and blinds (aka Teemo).
4b.) Silences.

The last two depend on the type of carry. Tristana for the most part shouldn't care about silences as long as she uses her steroids and the team is protecting her, while Corki's effective damage output will suffer.

uhm i'm pretty sure they do work on ww and malz ult. The description says reduces effects of immobilizes by 35%. They work on galio's ult and if you have them you won't get hit by the damage part of his ult because the taunt wears off too fast lol. Also knock up effects aren't long so i dun really thing they'd get the chance to help on those since they're kinda instant. They work on the stun part of allistars skill though for sure.

Who.

Nope, cause then Elementz will QQ how his tier list is being put to shame and he doesn't know as much as he thinks he does(last thing we need is mundo being new FotM). Then HotShotGG will nerd rage like he did while playing that zombie video game. On a serious note, i'll talk to gee and jeff and see what they say lol.

I plan to copy/paste Spiegelmann's Tank Rune page, lol

Just an FYI: I will use Rammus or Amumu for normal games. If I get around to playing ranked games in 10 levels, then it's Amumu only

FYI Will, Rammus is banned a lot in ranked games from what I've seen. As is Shen, Panth, Janna, and Sivir.

Also, just had a hilariously bad game. We ended up having 3 people dc so it was just me and Renekton left. Which . . . well there's just no way to be in enough places to handle a five person team, and even less so when I'm playing a tank Cho'gath and he's not a fast dps person. So I went and Baron'd for like 5 seconds before it killed me. XP

Just do me a favor next time and please read my post. I'm not in the mood to spew out insulting comments.

Bolded is my answer. Did you bother to read my post?

Missed the last part I'm afraid. >_< My bad. XP

So runes... When should you start concentrating on making up pages and rune sets?

Im currently level 17 and i just have 1 rune page that has the free ones you get given through level ups and about 3 yellow red and blue mana regen ones. Do you need to like, buy pages and runes and dedicate 1 page to each diff champ type you are good at, or are their runes you can use for a diverse amount of champs?

Some people I play with make me sad. No, Blitzcrank is not a good mid/top solo and certainly not better than Kat or Anivia. x.x

-also-

I'm going to see if I can get to high elo in solo/arrange team playing only Kat. XD

Just had an epic hour long game that went back and forth. Our Nunu was absolute fail though. Stacking giant's belts in spite of the other team. Even a thornmail/Randuins/Sunfire + Banshee's would have made him survivable, but no, he just had to keep stacking health and make a juicy target for anyone who wanted to kill him. I did try asking him multiple times what he was up to, but he ignored me and everyone else. Anyway ended the game at 14/10/22 as Cho'Gath. If I hadn't been there it would have been a lot worse, so glad we were able to take them out in team fights in spite of it being bad odds 90% of the time.

More and more lately I have been feeling rather cramped in this thread. >.<

We need a bigger place!

Eh, we could try and go the way of the Pokemon, but I kinda feel like we'd end up looking like the Anime forum. One big thread that sucks up 90% of posts and just a few others.

Subforums are scary yes, just look at some of the ones of the past. I wonder if we could expand upon the LoL group that Ray had made a while ago?? I've been thinking
that would be a good place to conversate together. The only real issue is the placement of the community tab, I think there should be an easier place to click that leads
you to your group choices.
