*** League of Legends ***

Had my first few games today, really enjoying it!

Bouncing between Ashe and Ryze, currently prefer Ryze.

Once kitted out, his rune lock --> flux --> desperate power --> overload combo destroys squishies :D
 
Does anyone know if there's a command to ignore your own team like you can the enemy team?

On a related note the ranked community is ten times more annoying then the normal one :p
 
lol is that for real or a troll? making it so they are perma stealth as in to see a stealthed char you have to get withon XXX field of view which is far smaller than for other chars wtf

It's a lie, the entire world is trolling you. You are not an idiot.

*ahem*

I can't wait for the stealth remake tbh, it will be fun to play some characters when they are not completely broken (either hideously UP or OP). As it is, stealth is so broken right now that they had to remove Eve from the game (well ok, you can pick her, but they really made it not worth anyone's while) :D
 
Sweet, cheers guys. I ended up tanking in ranked twice and it seems that automatically makes me to blame for everything;) We were winning as well!
 
Eve isn't useless in her current guise, just really needs to be partnered with a team that has stuns. You can still be very effective with her and win games, stealth is still incredibly powerful.

There's a lot to this game that people tend to gloss over. The champions, runes, masteries and summoner spells you pick need to match up well, they need to allow you to perform your given roles to the highest standard against the combination of champions, runes, masteries and summoner spells you face up against on the opposite team.

Level one fights (or not), lane management, lane harassment, jungle route/technique, gank timings, wards, how you spend your money, what items to buy first, how to counter opponents, is your team stronger early or late and how can you take advantage of that, dragon, red buff/blue buff (who gets them?), when to team fight, when to push towers, how to push towers, is your team more or less sustainable than theirs?, when to do baron and much more.

A lot of these things should be considered frequently, but most wont get a second thought in the majority of players' minds.

It's this level of complexity and variety that makes the game so enjoyable for me, although I do wish Riot would do a little less tinkering for the sake of it.
 

Your post is good. Played against a Eve the other day and she raped us hardcore. I mean seriously she would own so hard.

I love this game like you say, so much to think about. I love it now when our team doesn't have a jungler because I really counter jungle them. I'll ward red/blue etc and go gank them which is funny as they're not expecting it.

Patch note video out and hopefully Monkey King this week :D

With all the reworks this week I'd expect Monkey next week but maybe they'll surprise us :)
 
Being a cheap-arse and IP-in everything, I've spent most of this morning reading Ryze and Ashe guides.

Thing is, and it's always been the case with me, I don't really want to play this PvP, I prefer to co-op.

Why? Well with most FPS PvPs, the playing field is fairly level the whole way through. With this sort of game though, a poor performing teammate can leave you behind the curve and getting roflstomped. I don't want to be that poor teammate, and also don't want to have to suffer from one if I'm not. Too much pressure and I stop enjoying a game, I'm such a wuss, haha.
 
Is this like WoW PvP but just PvP and no quests and whatnot? If it's just PvP with the depth of WoW then i'll definitely try it.

It is a RTS type game.

So yes and no. It's closer to Warcraft 3 controlling the hero characters only.

There are cd's on your abilities, and complexities such as talent trees.

The game is a MOBA, Multiplayer Online Battle Arena. WoW characters were pretty much designed like controlling Warcraft 3 champions like you say only from a first person 3D perspective. League is RTS-style in its top down view and quite basic graphics in the grand scheme of things.

Easiest way to get an idea of the game is to watch some youtube videos just to see what it looks like.
