That's 1 AM, dude.

Just looked up Corrosive Charge, is that the only skill that deals physical DoT?

LS is legendary. Can't believe he's actually out at long last.

Definitely going to be one of my mains. I'll buy him as soon as I can get my FPS to stop dropping to 1 every other minute. Probably going to do a system restore on my lappy.

That's 1 AM, dude.

Excuse me for being oblivious to timezones.

No boredom-research, but I'm willing to bet a toonie that it is.

Edit: Now has boredom, but no research this time:
ALL RAW DOTS IN LOL (off the top of my head)
Ignite
Executioner's calling (I think)
Cass, teemo, singed and twitch poison
Urgot charge
Morde ult
Nidalee trap
Oh, and red buff
Fiddle drain (?)
Oh, almost forgot swain decreptify
And Malzahar and tristana
This list is longer than I thought..
And zil bomb, dealing 6 (I think) damage
Think that's it

Edit: finished a sentence

Learn every hotkey
They will save your ass

(Q/W/E/R), F(2/3/4/5)
Did I pass?
Im still learning them, they help a lot

I'd rather use the mouse than the keyboard most of the time tbh. I never use the F2-F5 keys, and I remapped F1 to S, which is normally "stop".

I don't use smartcasts.

I did actually hotkey the "learn skill X" stuff xD Sometimes during the beginning of a match, you'll come across a situation that'll make you facepalm yourself and go "fk I wish I took W instead of E". And a few times lvling up to 6 and ninjaing my ult saved my ass. Though all this could be said about smartcast too.

1-6 is used for items. Potions default to 2 for me (drag them there if they aren't in slot 2), while most actives go in slot 1. If I have multiple actives, whichever next number is the lowest is fine.
Z for extended view of chat *stares at Corn*.
Tab to check the scoreboard/CS/items that everyone has.
~ to target champions only (cannot be remapped afaik).
L to toggle nonchampion lifebars.
B to recall.
P to shop (I don't use this).
Shift+Enter to /all chat.
Shift+L to toggle champion lifebars.
Shift+K to toggle summoner names.
Y to toggle camera centering.
Spacebar to temporarily focus on your champion. Does not function as a self-cast.
G or Alt+click to ping.
D and F for your two summoner spells.
A to tell your champion to move/attack. Great for scouting for wards and Teemo shrooms.

There's more, but those are the ones I remember off the top of my head.

I think my reaction times are passable. For example, I'm pretty solid about stopping channeled ults when I play Rammus. I have decision making issues. I don't know where to position myself beyond "toward the front" or "toward the back", especially when it's a team fight in the jungle or river and with that come some bad decisions regarding picking smaller fights around dragon and situations like that.

I flake on my targeting in team fights. Other than "kill the squishiest or most powerful champ" first, I don't know how to follow up. Or in the case of my game with Kaj, what to do when there are no squishy champs. I know some of that is a moot point when the rest of my team is flummoxing around and targeting no one in particular.

I still encounter a lot of matchups where I simply don't have the experience to know what to do. I kinda thought Corki v. Jax would end poorly, and I was right. It almost immediately got to the point where I was a captive. If he hit me once, at any later point in his choosing he could tower dive and kill me. Luckily he left lane after a while since their Lee Sin stopped jungling and came top. But the damage was done and my farm sucked. In some games, the problem of "if they want to kill me, they will" spirals out of control very fast, or was caused by another teammate doing poorly. And I really don't know what to do about that (surrender?). I've had some terrible problems as Rammus against Veigar, and that's only happened in 2 or 3 games. In the worst case, Veigar was lightly fed by my teammates in lane, but that was enough for him to mess us up in some mid-game team fights. Stupid Event Horizon. Even if me and my teammates weren't getting caught in it, it covers enough area to ruin our day completely just by zoning us away from some of our team. Then late game, even with FoN, Mercs and I think Aegis, maybe even another negatron working toward QSS, Veigar was at the point where he could do 2000 damage in a burst to me. That was the worst case Veigar. Best case I just lose the ability to initiate because I can't work around that cage or I'm suddenly in it and some team fights get lost because of it.

Speaking of initiating, I'm bad at that too. I'm not sure how or when (let's say with Rammus) to do it. I know to punish the enemy when one or two champs overextend, but I don't know how to start a fight when my team is at the advantage and no one has a better means of initiating. I'm also very hit and miss on when it becomes time to run, when I've started running but should have stayed, and when I should never have fired a single shot and gotten my ass out.

These are just a few things that come to mind.

This game is totally driving me away from Maplestory. So far I'm loving Lux, Nocturne and Ashe. I'm wondering though if anyone could redirect me to a guide or explain a few basics of the game. Like how do you get riot points, what are social aspects of the game, apart from just talking in matches, what's ganking and are there any other maps then twisted tree lines and summoners rift? questions like that. Since I'm now a beast at just... playing (still using item guides though) I would like to know more about these things because I'm seriously considering becoming a hard core player.

I'm been banned from playing LoL (in real life, from my mom). I had no time to type the situation out in the game, Kajitii, so I'll write it up here.

So, after school and volunteering for 3 hours, and then eating, I've figured I should relax a little bit. Finals were in a week, but meh, I could always do it later (Mistake #1). I played a bit of Vindictus for ~15 minutes to do the event, then I played a really long game of LoL which consisted of us losing in the beginning, then winning a teamfight and then we cleaned it up (I basically carried the team. Thanks to Blitzcrank and his rape, I was able to get 20 stacks on the Sword of Occult and destroy). Anyways, they were orgasming at my ownage (I swear, they were worshipping me like God and all were going to buy Caitlyn ASAP) and I got invited to a 3-man team. It was like...7 or 8 PM? Maybe 6. Meh. I got enough time for one more game. It wasn't like I had anything planned. I invited Kajitii to the game so we could own.

~10 minutes in the game my mom called me to get off from playing and start studying. I told her I will in roughly 30-45 minutes.

~20 minutes in the game my mom comes up. She is pissed and tells me to get off now and start studying. I alt tab out and open up google translate and started studying for French. When she left I alt tabbed back to LoL. I tell everyone I kinda had to go soon and we might as well surrender (we were losing). No one listens. I halfheartedly play/study (Mistake #2).

~35 minutes in the game I didn't hear my mom come up and she's realllly pissed at me. She yells at me a bit. When she leaves, I urgently tell everyone I got to go. Now. Kajitii reprimands me a bit to not start a LoL game if I only had ~35 minutes. I tried to surrender but no one accepts. So, I continue playing, praying the other time would surrender first (they had to go, too)...

~50 minutes in the game, well, you can guess what happened. Not only did I get the crap yelled out of me, I have an additional leave on my record, my team probably lost (did we lose Kaj?), I can't play LoL and I got no real computer to study/do my homework (this is a crappy computer I'm typing on).

I'm not sure when I can get my own computer back. It may be as soon as tomorrow, or after finals, or after the AP test, or the summer, or never. I'm just going to leave this message here to explain why I had to leave, Kaj. Just don't expect to see me today or this weekend. Hell I'm not even supposed to be on Southperry (self-prohibited) but I just wanted to type this message.

Dam corn =/ that sucks, been there... luckily my mom isn't very strict and says it's me who should care, she'll just remind me of it.

Just had a great game as Rammus, still don't like him much but was fun, I like other tanks better though. started out really slow and died a couple of times, mid match I was like 1/5/1, but then something happened on me and I started teaming up and coordinating greatly then ended 7/6/15, we also had a great Lux in there she came 11/1/17

Overly strict parents make me lol. Sorry to hear that Corn.

Line of thought: If Veigar pineapples me up when I play against him, maybe I should try playing as him. An excellent conclusion.

Played my first Veigar game (after a truly hilarious game on a smurf account I just opened. My god. That was the funniest pomegranate) and it turned into a 90 minute long ball-busting back and forth. Ended up losing, but I went 25-13-18 so that felt really good. Enemy team had a Veigar too, and that was really tense. We could both one-shot each other. So a nine game losing streak that I finally snapped with a sweet 15-4-10 Corki game against some really, really horribad guys.

Veigar's my new caster choice over Lux.

We could both one-shot each other.

Did any of you have magic resistance? o_o!

Just had a fun game with Swain, it was one of those games where before starting I think 'This will not work', yet somehow those games are the best, we had no tank and were mainly magic (anivia, swain, Jarvan who built AS/AD, ryze and shaco) with Ryze and me carrying, the other team was really balanced, a blitztank, zhin xao, viegar, akali and warwick, so in the loading screen my thought was "this doesn't look good...", somehow I came out 6/2/7 cause it was a 25 mins game, and our ryze came 15/4/7 but he did ks a lot from the rest who had low kills.

Veigars ult does more damage the more the ap the person you cast it on has (i think) and since you can constantly boost your ap if you last hit with Q, i dont think mres would help lol.

Magic resistance sure would help, at least an Abysall Scepter and a banshee's would have dispersed a lot of the damage, unfortunately veigar's Q increases a lot of AP, but magic defense really does help.

A banshee's would help at least with the stun.

Veigar is by far one of the best anti-AP champs to pick. If you're worried about a Le Blanc, Malzahar, Annie, etc., he pretty well wrecks them. His burst does pretty well against others too of course, but his primary ability comes from shutting down other burst casters. About the only time I'd advise against picking him is when there's a Nasus as well. Two champs based on last hitting means either two people get underfarmed if you're in split lanes, or one of you gets shafted out of last hitting by the other. I do love playing Veigar though, he's one of the few champs that can kill someone in 2-3 hits with ease thanks to his stun, and wreck entire teams if properly positioned.
