How can people get to 20+ and still not know who to target first in team fights? And then not listen when you tell them as well.This is my main frustration and probably the biggest reason teams lose games in solo normal.

If you get games like that do the pring on the character you want targeted, that generally works well. If they are really bad then ping first then second, then third. Seen one guy do this when the team were targetting different people and it worked really well.

In LOL it is acceptable, you have to take down the earlier towers before you can do this but it is viewed as a valid tactic.

So we can have our premade ranked games again - i'm guessing they saw a huge drop off of premade games when they changed the cap and also they are giving more rune pages but as a chargeable. Fine imho. Hopefully they're sort our masteries as these are more critical imho
 
Oh, and I meant to ask - so far my favourite hero by far has been Ashe - I really like the combination of range with ambush style tactics with the stun ulti and slowing. Are there any other heroes along these lines that I might enjoy unlocking?

The thing is, you dont really want to go unlocking all the same sorts of chars because it makes you completely useless when you realise your team is locked in with out, say, a tank.

My first unlock was Ashe, had allot of fun with long range stun arrows and stun arrows into fog, then Sivir who is an excellent, excellent farmer, pusher and early game harasser, then i was fed up of nobody going tank so unlocked Amumu, who is by far and away now my favourite hero when playing a sunfire cape AoE damage build. I laugh myself silly watching him waddle into battle, bursting into tears with 2 sunfire capes and 4k health then waddling beside running enemies. Ah bliss.
 
Well that rune page thing will certainly rake them in a bit more cash. Now if they could get to work on the mastery system that would be far and away better imo.

Also yay for ranked games again. Although that does mean we are going to have to be slightly more serious when it comes to team composition ;)

I thought they were going to totally rework the mastery system along with some of the effects the runes have (as some of them have no use, such as the extra physical damage runes as they only add about +5damage total)

As for ranked games...:rolleyes:

Yep - good call on there part re runes, they've added a feature that people don't gain an advantage from so buyers discretion :)

re team composition, I think we keep to our original way. Play a normal game, if that goes well then hit ranked. I find some days I am so shocking I should just go to bed after the first game rather than put myself through the inevitable pain that occurs :)
 
The masteries system doesnt really need any work currently though as you can always redo your masteries to anything during the selection screen, runes you were very limited on though.

Havint spend a while helping a friend get to 30 and is currently 29 we finally get the ability to get him back in the ranked games again. At least it'll be funny having some lower ranked people for a few games as he comes in on ~1200. Still need some normal games to practice rammus....

Sounds good but if you wait to see what your team goes for that can give you very little time to choose the masteries which ends up with a frantic clicking to achieve before the time ticks away. In ranked games you have more time but can still hit the same problem.

Would be one of my number one wishes - alongside replays and spectator mode.
 
Hi All

Re the runes and glyphs etc

Im level 7 now.What runes and glyphs should i get.I can only get the lesser glyphs.Do they make much difference.By the way i currently play as Ashe at the moment.Thanks for any tips.Is there any good guides of what weapons to buy and armor etc from the get go as i often get confused and probably dont make the best choices.

Thanks
 
solomid have a number of guides for all the heroes, get some tier 1 runes for now but skip tier 2 and save for 3.
