Original League of Legends (LoL) Thread

Played a Co-op today with a jungle Sion, thought that was interesting. Then a regular with a spell vamp Singed. He got 3 revolvers and I don't remember what else.
Over 100 of the Chinese splash arts

They use Chinese splashes in the JoJ. The Heimerdinger one and the Nurse Akali one I've seen in there, off the top of my head.

It has a very steep learning curve if you're new to MOBAs unfortunately.

However, matchmaking will attempt to match you with opponents of appropriate skill level. Or failing, that, at least match teams with a 50/50 chance of winning or losing. But it will not know the extent of your skills unless you keep playing normal games.

Most of what Ray said is fair, but I feel like it involves the burden of knowledge, which you don't have. Instead, I'll refer you to the official website's learning center, specifically the new user's guide and the gameplay page, which covers a large number of basics and core mechanics. Do the tutorials, keep playing and applying new knowledge.

Also, whenever you're ready, feel free to tell us your IGN =P

Thanks, . I get the gist of it. Stay behind your minions while pushing forward into the base. But I almost always lose the battles against the bots. Also, IGN is AlleyKats.

Say, mad, how do you build Singed?

So i go Caitlyn, my second normal as her and i go mid for the first time. I have to mid against leblanc, who leveled to 2 and immediately killed me. Game Lost.

I go Annie, and get 1v1 against Rumble. Once again i just try to last hit and get completely killed. this game i go 0/9, and have no damage. I know by the amout of abuse i recieved from the rest of my team that i have at least 2 reports for 'intentional feeding'

Getting pretty frustrated at this game tbh. I try to emulate what i see on streams from ranked games, where everyone is pretty passive and farms, yet all my opponents are super aggressive and its just bleh.

Yo, I'll go play with you in a couple of minutes (from 15 minutes to an hour, lol) to see what's wrong with your playstyle. What's your ign again?

Mindset is pretty much
>>Opponent team has Jungler
>Passive play

>>Opponent team has no Jungler
>Aggressive play

I always play cautious and passive regardless of the champ I play, even if it's supposed to be an "Aggressive" champion.

Past few games my opponents have always had a jungler, and our team never has. All my team seem to push hard when they have a jungler too, making their job just that much easier.

@Corn, if you mean me, Im on the EU Server so we cant play together

Say, mad, how do you build Singed?

I always open mana crystal+pots, straight to Catalyst and lvl1 boots. Level 2 boots are usually Mercs, sometimes 3 speeds. I guess I don't need to sit on the catalyst anymore, but it usually turns into a RoA, sometimes a Banshee's. Other than that, I go by mood/other team. Usual tank choices, just keep in mind the FoN move-speed is very nice. I like FoN, Sunfire, and Banshee's. I go for one or two of those next. Frozen Heart (500 mana means 125 HP on that too) or Randuin's are always fine too. If we're seriously face-raping, I like Hourglass and/or Rylai's. I get hourglass sometimes if a game is drawing out and I could use a little more armor. I think I've gotten deathcap twice before in normal games. A fun last slot luxury item.

Level 1 Fling, Ult>Poison>Adhesive>Fling

Play pretty cool until level 6, don't push with poison when you shouldn't. Fling harass keeps people scared. If you can lane with a good DPS, you'll provide enough CC to get kills. I don't worry too much about early farming. If my lane partner isn't an idiot, I let them take what they can. As laning breaks down, just start poisoning everything and your CS will catch up. I love not being the main tank since I can just wander and push the pomegranate out of lanes. But when I am the main tank, I think it's fun to have upwards of 4000 HP and be crazy unkillable. Singed is forgiving. Just don't throw people the wrong way or into your dying allies.

My normals this weekend:
2-10-4 Rammus (Giving me the 2nd best score on my team)
0-6-3 Singed (Eliciting a "gg singed" from my team's Mord, to which I could only respond "Pretty much")
2-6-13 Corki (Which we won. Because we were awesome at pushing. I went 0-6-11 before getting kills. During laning I was 0-4-0 with three people escaping from me with less than 50 health as I died)

I think I like characters that can crazy farm. Corki and Singed are pretty much my favorites with Gragas close behind. They can all farm well despite aggressive opponents. Because yeah, the people I play against constantly autoattack and push. Wankers. I just want to farm up a storm. Singed is also fun because I can punish those aggressive guys with flings. Blitz and Alistar also have my attention.

Also, weekends on LoL suck.

B> The ability to use the chinese splash art in LoL NA again
Stupid patcher killed the ability to do so due to how the folder is packed now.

L>some people to play with 2 other random people on my friend's list (level 25 and an 18, I'm level 23). I'm going to be waiting for ~10 minutes since we just recently queue dodged.

Kaj, I didn't say any of that, someone I know told me that and I thought they were wise words for any newcomer.

Technically you didn't say it, but since you made the majority of your post the quote from someone else, that's a good emphasis on what you meant to say.

Most people learn stuff one step at a time anyways, not by reading 15+ different things and then hopefully applying it somehow in confusion.

Queued into Coop and got a 4 man group who went AP WW, AP Udyr, AP Ashe, and AP Urgot. We almost lost.

I wonder why Rumble hasn't been given the Nerf Bat treatment?

Builded with Full AP that douche is an unapprochable killing machine with Flametower-Double Harpoon and long ass range Ult.

I only saw one Rumble for some strange reason.

Lolz. At first i thought "Inb4 Global ult" while he was teleporting, to my surprise there was a global ult coming but god getting hit on the Fountain is completely ridiculous.

I usually just walk to my fountain if im inside my base to be honest, i find it more safe and fast.

I know right? I don't get people who b when they're inside base already, specially if you already have boots, and a movement speed increase skill like nunu does.

Rumble's not really that strong.

He's got no hard CC, if he builds non-tanky he blows up the moment you look at him the wrong way, and the heat system limits how often he can use his abilities.

Just installed all of the Chinese artwork due to the epicness of Caitlyn (and soleley Caitlyn's) artwork. Of course I have errors on, say, Nocturne, Brand, and all of the new champions, but I doubt that'll affect gameplay that much.
