Original League of Legends (LoL) Thread

60 minutes isn't long enough for a 70 minute game which happens more often than you think.

Wat

All of my leaves have been from stupid internet problems or the LoL client crashing idiotically and refusing to start back up. Stupid LoL client.

I'm back from PAX Prime! Sweet swag includes:

-- Riot fist bump from two Rioters (Spin2Win)
-- 3x PAX Sivir skin codes (how'd that happen?)
-- 3x Riot K9 Nasus skin codes
-- LoL Lanyard
-- A seal rune pin for the lanyard (probably coulda gotten more, but I was lazy)
-- LoL silhouette T-shirt (kinda fugly tbh)
-- Knowledge that LoL is unintentional ("but don't tell anyone")

@ Bolded: Me want. =(

A 4 year old child won the costume contest as Red Riding Hood Annie. Thats just freakin' OP as hell.

Wat. That's just too OP. NERF!

/joke

Inb4 Josh says "Children who cosplay as LoL champs too good!"

(Then again, you have to be honest here: Annie is considered a child in LoL...)

By any chance, did the child's parents happen to play LoL? If so that's just epic win in some ways or form. xD

Ok, what's this "AoE bug" I've been reading about? Is it the "AoE animations are bigger than the defined marker" thing or whatever?

Opposite. The actual range is bigger than the animation. OPness.

6-1 with orianna in ranked. Always balls to the wall, never lose.

My dad thought it was a wonderful time to vacuum my room while I was playing. So I had to clear the furniture in a 4 v 5 game (we were winning, though).

At least it wasn't a leave, but we lost >_>.

Children who cospl- wait a minute.
Actually I would have probably said "Annie Cosplay too good!"

That's pretty ridiculous to say the least.

As for the topic about leaves. I have 2 leaves due to that weird client bug, from long ago, in where you could DC / crash at the loading screen and trying to reconnect to the game would crash you again 85% of the time. Needless to say I also have a leave on my alt account due to that.

We hate you, you're not forgiven, it's all your fault, etc etc.

It was fun, though. Although I continuously underestimated Garen *cough cough*, I think I'm getting a bit better. :<

That Garen did a ton of damage from start to finish! He was pretty much able to 100% - 0% me in his standard Q -> E combo.
inb4 AD runes.

Holy fking FriggerMcJiggers, did I really just facecheck a bush as Koggles at 1:37!?!?!? (Ashe and Leona were there)

Oh my pineappleing gawd!!!11! So mad at myself

But I made up for it by scoring first blood and having godly map awareness for the rest of the game. I scored 14 retreat pings, none resulting in my death

Dunno how you guys have less than 10 leaves -_- (and wtp Kaj 2 leaves in your entire career? That's crazy).

Both were from my craptastic laptop having issues running the game. In today's standards, I would probably have more leaves o.O

But I rectified that problem by buying a desktop computer that is 15x more powerful xD

60 minutes isn't long enough for a 70 minute game which happens more often than you think. And if you have to eat in an hour you should really be prepared to eat in 30-45 minutes. Always have an extra buffer of 15-30 minutes because of variables you can never account for (namely females)

It also helps if you negotiate "understandings" with anyone in your vicinity that has the power to disrupt your gaming experience. But what Ray has said should definitely be put into practice.

IN AoE BUG NEWS:

<Brackhar> Alright, sounds like we've confirmed the AoE bug
<Brackhar> And have engineers working on it

<Brackhar> Huh. I think I know what caused the AoE bug then
<Brackhar> Which actually means it was a bugfix
<Brackhar> That was done without considering the ramifications

Interesting.

Meeting new champs eh? Some of the truly nightmarish champs are the ones that are 1v1 machines and/or assassins.


EDIT: Omg I'm in the PAX recap video in the announcements xD But you'll never find me.

Also, the forums are getting a level restriction. Anyone of lvl 4 or lower is restricted to posting in the newbie forums and the HS forums.

It's quite obvious you're that cosplayer at 1:30.

Brb must take a look.

 Wait...wait....

It's quite obvious you're that Asian guy cosplayer at 1:30.

Fixed

And that is why you use ghost and sprint down to facecheck the bush first!

Although I have to admit, 1 game this Singed with boots + 3 MS quints + a Garen (and they had a Janna on their team) beat me to the bush first for some reason. I facechecked...and got killed.

Meeting new champs eh? Some of the truly nightmarish champs are the ones that are 1v1 machines and/or assassins.

Nah, I'm just not used to decent Garens.
...Or ones that can rape me 1v1 early game. As Dark Link said, he was able to 100% -> 0% me as Kayle with his Q -> E, a basic attack or two, and exhaust from level 5. That's...kind of ridiculous and I can't say I've ever ran into that before.

A champ with a monstrous early game being good at 1v1ing? MADNESS.

*Points to Xin*, oh how I miss it

Just played a game with Kaj, Birdie, and Bob. We got outplayed to say the least. GG though

Though one thing I was raging about my parents were peaching me to sleep andthem thinking I was addicted. (Right now I'm in Boston vacationing, and I usually play 1-2 rounds before hitting the hay). Before I played, I made sure that I had enough time to play, but apparently that wasn't the case.

So mom and dad, by your logic that I'll play every day and under the assumption that I'll fail if I don't quit, what about only playing on weekends only if I get my academic shyt + chores out of the way first? So does that define failing? Problem?

By your logic, I shouldnt be able to blow off steam on LoL at times when I'll be inevitably stressed sometime in the next few months?

/end rant

No one on our team did anything too dumb during game, which was a nice change of pace. We got out picked pretty hard though, with akali/kog fighting for farm bottom and jax trying to lane vs zil mid. Oh well, I was just happy to get to play a game after almost 3 weeks of being without a computer that can run LoL.

I can't stop loving soraka. She really wins games if your team isn't made of morons. Also she's such a hard counter to karthus, he got a bit fed but his last 5 or 6 ults were fully countered by mine.

Remarcable moments:
Soloing Singed 1v1 on top ( my lane partner went clear our jungle ).
When Shaco was almost dead and he managed to stealth away, I hit q and he dies

I know the feeling man. I know the feeling.

Birdie, what's your ign? O_o.

*Points to Xin*, oh how I miss it

Xin was never good early game; his game picks up immensely around 6. He really shines mid game with mid tier items.

I don't think you realize this; but currently Soraka is or very close to this game's most powerful AP carry. She has insane damage with a near zero skill requirement.

Crazy sustain, massive zoning capabilities and a solid easy to use CC.
