Original League of Legends (LoL) Thread

Only things that are really going for MF is her good early game (she'll get whooped by Caitlyn though), and maybe jungle fights, where it's harder to sidestep MF's ult. Aside from that, she's pretty blah.

Just had one of those games where everyone makes such horrid picks you just pick for fun and watch them all feed their lanes so hard.

20 minutes could not come fast enough tbh.

It's fun outplaying higher level summoners who use the same Champ you do.

Also I hate how a few champs I'm interested in are freaking 6300 champs!

And when I get outplayed by my counterpart (not a lower level summoner), I go into depression and have a journey of meaning and life.

That's Riot for you.

They claimed they would release champions of all IP ranges. And back in the day, IP prices (supposedly) actually reflected difficulty of playing the champion to their full potential. To date, not a single champion below 3150 was released beyond the originals, other than Poppy.

I know that feeling, kinda lol
More so getting outplayed by lower levels in general =
Although most people just seem to believe "Oh, they got carried by XYZ, no big deal."

Nunu Bot skin coming out May 2nd! PUSH PUSH PUSH PUSH PUSH PUSH PUSH PUSH PUSH-

http://www.leagueoflegends.com/news/new-skin-nunu-bot

This Monday, the minds that brought you Gentlman Cho’gath and Corporate Mundo have a very special surprise in store for you: The Legendary Nunu Bot!

[video=youtube;8hotD5XoMmE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8hotD5XoMmE&feature=player_embedded[/video]

Deep within Freljord’s numerous mountain ranges lies the top secret AngryGoran Robotics Facility. There the most brilliant (and angry) minds in all of Runeterra work to achieve with science that which nature has failed to provide. Their mission: To build the perfect Yeti!

Decades (and numerous home video production cycles) have passed since their first attempts. Now, after thousands of failed prototypes, power outages, welding accidents, patent office claims, and a rather considerable electricity bill, AngryGoran engineers have finally completed construction on the next evolution of fully functional combat Yeti. Nunu Bot is officially operational and ready to be deployed to the Fields of Justice!

This May 2nd, visit the League of Legends store and fire up your very own Nunu Bot!

Inb4 it is deemed a "legendary skin" and priced in the LoL store at 1820 RP.

(The name of this skin reminds me of Co-Op vs AI. )

Wahaha today in a match with brand i could enjoy using the Ult, 1 time i killed two low healths that were running away with the ult following them (And since they didnt split up the ult bounced) XD.

Also i experienced first hand Xin Nerf/Buff and i gotta say... Why nerf him in the first place? now he does not stun lock you, but he doesnt need it anymore since he hits WAY FUCKING HARD now :/, i had to b more than once because that xin knocked 1/2 - 2/3 of my hp in one combo before i could manage to stun him/flash out of the way :S (And this was at lvl 4-6 while he only had a freaking lifesteal scepter and a hp pot). It became worse later on >.>.

I'm willing to bet it really is a legendary Skin, because of the unique dance to it.

I didnt want to, being a team game and all, but i may start using the ignore feature.

Having way too many games where my laning partner is an idiot and then that person and sometimes others give me grief the entire game for their own stupid mistakes.

Hey Rumble, is it really my fault that you stay in lane with about 200hp and even when i ping nunu coming up to us, you walk back into the swain and die?

Played with a few people from MS earlier. Lets just say it didn't so well.

[spoiler=Cho'Gath gone nuts][/spoiler]

Second game: Decided to go Cho'Gath. Started out crappy; by mid-game, I had no kills, 4 deaths, and a few assists. But then I started dominating. In fact, I was pretty much unkillable (besides the fact my GA kicked in once to save my ass). Went 11 straight kills until we lost the teamfight at base and that pretty much ended my killing streak.

Otherwise, the game was pretty bad. Teamfights were crap. Once I yelled at the team to start focusing on squishes, that turned things in our favor. We got Baron once. But since the other team got fed heavily early on, we pretty much got instagibbed at the end.

Yes, I had to use Warmog because of how things really went. Usually I don't do this (haven't used a Warmog since January of this year until now), but it was pretty much "desperate times call for desperate measures". Had lots of MR to counter the team (and including the Madreds Bloodrazor that Ashe had). But her kiting was so freaking annoying. But we did focus on her a few times; that kind of did the job. My regret - coming from post-game analysis - was that I could've at least tried to rush Sunfire Cape or a Randuins Omen. Last Whisperer hurts. Lots of questions. Very few answers. (And if one of them is "OMGZ YOU NUB YOU GOT WARMOG", save that crap for yourself).

God. Sometimes I really want to stab myself when playing these types of shi'tfest-filled games.

Yeah, Kaji, you should've seen how much Will and I wanted to strangle Rick after our first game and ONLY game with him lol

2nd game was going rather well until the two pugs decided to facecheck a lot of things and/or wander off alone, thus having them get 1v5'd in a couple seconds.

Ha ha I want to play with Rick too.

Question: Why did you start with Doran's Ring? O_O. It seems like a weird choice.

Atm, I would give him some time to get some practice done. You'll end up raging after playing with him. Just a warning.

I usually get Doran's Ring because of the mana regen (helps in lane since I do use my skills regularly during laning phase, though not to the point where I exhaust my mana pool) and the health boost (of course). I have used Doran's Shield before on Cho'Gath. Depends on early-game situation.

Oh, and Wriggles/Madreds Razor on jungle Rammus is amazing. Lifesteal proc every time I attack (with Wriggles), and makes jungling so much easier. Though I need to find time to learn how to jungle with him effectively; I still have problems that needs to be smoothed out.

Is it some trend for Tryndameres I smurf with to not buy any items at the start of the game, only to open up with an Avarice Blade? Two times now...

If you're going regen on Cho'Gath, rather than Doran's Shield, pick up a Regrowth pendant. You'll use it either to build warmogs late game, or FoN mid to late game depending on their team comp. Or if you won't need either of those, as there are times where neither suit a game, you can turn it into a Philo stone early on for some sweet gold per 5 and decent hp and mp regen.

Edit:

Those Tyrns probably have very specific rune/mastery set up so they already have a nice amount of Crit chance at level 1. I dunno if I'd be willing to risk it, but there are some who prefer not to use the early gold immediately. It's also possible they just plain forgot to buy an item, and only realized later on, so they went with their normal build anyway. Or it's also possible they're following the terrible stack avarice blade build that some like to do. Which it's not a bad decision if the game lasts a long time, but it pretty much screws him out of getting other items that are more helpful to him. I dunno, I would say it's best to spend the gold you have asap so that you don't waste time going back to town, and it's not like they couldn't pick up a brawlers glove first, then get boots + avarice blade on their first trip back.

@ Bolded: Unless I'm in an extreme situation where I may need it (<1% chance), no.

 Jungle Rammus

One of my teammates was worrying about Mordekaiser. Told him that Morde is pretty squishy once his energy bar (shield) is low. Bottom lane was pretty much getting pushed by my team. Ganked a few times, died once from Cho tower diving me and killing me while I was watching over top (FML). Had another bad gank (nearly died).

Later on, I jacked the other team's blue buff (fail Nocturne), then I proceeded to roll in and taunt the jungle Nocturne after Ashe used her ult on him. Two fails for him in 20 seconds. Then we both proceeded to push the top outer tower, and demolish it from full HP to none with one minion wave.

Anyways, I realized that I was slightly underleveled while I was jungling with Rammus. Is there any way I can remedy this problem?

Smurfing>runes>nope
I call them out on it and they say they're saving it.

If anyone wants to watch me get stomped on while playing Vlad lol.

Alistar is scary with 637 ap.

@ Bolded: Unless I'm in an extreme situation where I may need it (<1% chance), no.

It's a rare game that you'd build one, but it does happen in the really long games. Usually I use it for a FoN, but as I said, there are games where there's a point at which more HP/regen is better than more Armor or MR.

@madanthony: Well I guess in that case they'll just have to discover for themselves why it's bad to go that route. At some point they'll start running into people that will punish them heavily for lack of lvl 1 items, until then, you can just try to remind them before they reach their lane to pick up something.

Will stop getting wriggles/blood razor on all junglers, they are not for heroes such as cho'gath rammus and amumu(dunno if you'd buy it for him too).
It's a waste of money on them, better to just buy the wards then. Get something else that's more worth it, work on an aegis.
