*** League of Legends ***

After a very dire Friday and Sunday i'm currently on a 7 game winning streak with only one game lost in the last 11. It's all going to end in tears :)

Fun games over the last few days though

You still whoring Ashe? :D I see they changed her default skin. Doesn't look as good :(

On a decent streak myself actually, 5 game win streak with Morgana ownage! Was the first champ I ever used and after revisiting her I find her even better than when I first started playing.
 
They haven't changed her skin, just her logo/portrait. And no, Tals still doesn't own any other characters. Word is hes actually hacked his LoL client so he couldn't choose anyone else even in a moment of weakness.

Yep always Ashe, I can play others but i've got myself in a nice pleasant rut where I enjoy playing her and it doesn't take too much brain power - just love the game and the team play :)

The default skin I don't think has changed - just the portrait picture. I'm generally playing the default skin (I know skin whore that I was) - always more of a surprise for the opposing team then :)

hehe the word is wrong - I actually own most other characters and have 17k ip :) But you are right every time I select a character regardless of where I click it always is ashe - bloody weird issue :)
 
I'm enjoying either Tryndamere or Annie, especially in the later parts of the game. Annie is brilliant for popping her pet in the middle of a group and I lifesteal enemy champs from a small range.

Ah right, thought it would be weird if they suddenly decided to change the default skin!

I don't mind playing her from time to time but do struggle to do well. I prefer Tristana if I play melee DPS, gotta love the rocket jump :) Oddly enough I actually get more kills playing as Morgana, I find myself a bit too conservative to play carrys effectively. MF is different though, I do go in guns blazing :D
 
Mmm, delicious leaked information goodness. For reals?

Nice to see some reworkings, and I am very happy to see they are giving into demands and continuing to buff Sivir. She is my love child, and imo imba if only people understood her!

I like Sivir at the moment the boost to on the hunt looks pretty good.I need to use the spell shield more though :)
 
It's such a buggy piece of **** at the moment, several games now me and my team have been stomping the enemy only to have 3 guys drop randomly at the same time. How the hell has this game won all those awards recently @ http://www.gdconlineawards.com/nominee/index.html Guys voting must have never played the game.

I've seen players drop but invariably it's their connection issues - we know that because when it's happening to us we're on voip and invariably the player falls out of voip. It would have to be an incredible design to handle that :)

On th eplus if it's a valid disconnect they can join again
 
The competition to LoL was pathetic, that's one of the reasons :)

Without being too much of a fanboi - the game has a pretty good retention rate. Has most likely between 500K to 1Million players and continues to attract more players. I'm starting to look at moving my mumble from 25 to 30 users to keep up with the demand :)

So it is doing some things right :) Do I want more from it, yes loads but currently no other game matches this one - reflected in the ones I have bought lying by the wayside :(
 
It's not that they can't rejoin, it's that 5+ mins of 5v2 is not great ;]

Yep understood - but it doesn't help some peoples connections are lousy. I've just reverted from my BT Internet router back to my netgear and amazingly the family can now be doing other internet stuff without affecting my connection. It wasn't the games fault that I was rubber banding all over the place due to a poor router
 
Anyone else had issues facing Ryze today? I've had 2 matches now where Ryze has warped all over the map. Being un-targetable one second, then raping the whole team the next. Reported the player both time, but I really hope this isn't the start of public hax ;[
