I'm not really fond of Dominion. Not that I haven't/won't play it. it's just not my thing.

That wasn't the point, it was that a fully 6 stack fed chogath plus size buff plus surge equals to a huge cupcake

Dad just cost me a game with a combination of cricket and "upgraded" internet.

I saw it live earlier; Lulu is effing amazing. She looks way too fun/trololol to play.

[COLOR="#cc8899"]I really like the detail that went into how the little fairy works - down to even what side of a character it's on. Really well designed at first glance. (Developers thought of everything, for you Tropers out there). Definitely looks interesting, and I wouldn't exactly feel bad about dying because of her if I got to be a cupcake every time.

Also, during some ARAMs today I have discovered a love for Mundo - I intend to learn to jungle with him in the near future, he's so much fun to play and he's got some amazing survivability. Also did a bit better as Yorick this time around, though I still don't really like him in ARAM - he has issues getting close enough to do much.

Not sure how valid these are, but I like the part about Blitzcrank's grab getting stronger and costing less mana.

Maw of Malmortius - Item Cost 3300 - Recipe Cost 925 - Requires Hexdrinker + Pickaxe - +55 Attack Damage +36 Magic Resist UNIQUE Passive: If you would take magic damagethat would leave you at less than 30% Health, you first gain a shield that absorbs 400 magic damage for 5 seconds (60 second cooldown). UNIQUE Passive: +1 Attack Damage for every 2.5% of your Maximum Health that is missing.

Inb4 that item gets ignored.

I was buying hexdrinker as one of my late items on my Noc build, its was good since Wriggles gave me Armor (Albeit a little) and Frozen hammer gave me health... Although i also buyed Wits end

I'm going to ask help here... Been playing so much dominion (because its faster) that I suck in the normal mode.

Whats the best way to farm gold?
I swear everyone else gets its way faster, which leads to better items and them being superior compared to me. Whenever I try to kill minions, my own minions keep ksing my kills (Playing on Ashe). Someone told me to go kill monsters in the forest, but those give only like 5-6gold each? Whats the point in killing them, when killing minions gives you 25 gold more?

Running out of MP
I'm constantly running out of MP. Should I buy those mp pots from store even though my guide says nothing about them?

Escaping when low HP
How do you do this? I keep getting stunned or slowed and sometimes the enemy will just tele right on me and kill me with 2-3 hits (I swear I hate that Master Yi). Fiddlesticks somehow "seduces" my char, making me walk right into him so he can drain ALL of my HP.

Last hit, there you go, that's your main gold source. If you're a carry or solo that is.
As ashe, as you mentioned, just last hit.

If you run out of MP, that depends 100% on who the hell you're playing what you should do.
Are you a solo mid anivia? Get the blue buff from your jungler. We kind of need to know what you're playing.
If it's still ashe, I don't know, i generally don't run into mana problems as Ashe unless i'm farming with volley.

Also as a rule of thumb, the later into the game it is, the more you want to stay away from red/blue potions since they're temporary and will slow down items.

And fiddle fears you, making you walk in a random direction, if you want to escape with low health, know your champion and know your enemies even better, know how far you can push it without dying.

As ashe you arent suppose to auto attack things but rather wait for the minions to lower their health to one hit them for the final attack to gain the gold. Also there are monsters in the forest that give 50gold and the weak versions of them give 6 or so, the dragon gives 190 to the whole team and 25 extra to the killer.(summoners rift)
Running out of mana
You might be running out of many fast because you have frost shot on when you arent attacking champions, it takes mana per shot so with auto attacking you lose a lot. You could always get equips that give damage and mana as well.
Surviving with low hp
Ashe is a long range squishy character, enemies like fiddlesticks who fear you or rammus that taunt you are dangerous. Using heal to heal you the using ghost or flash to run away is an option.

Mh? I do play LoL, and i never stopped. I just play on the EU servers, and i only play with friends if they ask me usually :-)
But i do still follow the game, it's a very different game from DotA and it's quite refreshing to play.

I feel like that Maw/Hexdrinker upgrade is going to be the new go-to item on Windamere.

Maybe, at best you can gain 40 AD from its effect (39 if you dont want to die of course)

This discussion was happening on the forums too - I think Bloodthirster still seems the overall better option, but Maw seems better in quick skirmishes. Seems pretty strong on Mundo.

The big creeps in the jungle give you significantly higher gold. 50~ gold or something iirc.

To get gold faster as Ashe, you'll just have to get good at last-hitting. The majority of it is just getting the timing down and knowing how much damage your attacks do. See this post for more info.

Don't spam. Enough said. Sure, you're really threatening and do a lot while spamming, but you'll also burn out your mana really fast.

Also, don't forget to turn off your Frost Shot if you're not shooting champions.

Stop getting into range of their stuff or dodge it, and have good map awareness. It sucks to get pwned instantly because you can't see them, but you'll have to learn how to avoid that too. Teleport sucks even more, but I guess there's not a whole lot you can do about that, other than try to time when they have it up and when it is down =/

More importantly however, recognize when they can kill you easily with their spell combos. If champion A does 1500 damage before all his spells are expired and on cooldown, then you could probably be safe while you have a higher amount of HP than that. Otherwise, expect to die if you're not good at surviving or you have no way to stop them from comboing you.
