I use Morgana too, quite enjoy her but not sure what kind of build to go with. I see mostly people go for a tank role? I normally go for items that give me good mana regen and ability power and spam the first two spells endlessly :D

Also been trying Master Yi who feels fairly simple to play and a good pusher.

i go chalice first for mana regen, some form of boots (morgana is slooooooow) then i build my zhonya's ring as fast as i can as it has good synergy with her ultimate (the active 2 seconds invulnerability is amazing). i then go for some sort of cooldown reduction (frozen heart) and whatever else i feel lilke... been toying with deathfire grasp for extra nukes as well.

i just stay well back and creep, always positioning myself for a good dark binding shot. when they are low enough health, i charge in post dark binding and unload everything :p. morgana has a very easy time in laning and pushing
 
Argh, really liking this game so I wanted to go buy a character I could stick with for a bit.
Turns out people from Jersey cannot buy in the store, just like latvians.
I have an inkling it's because they don't know we exist, same is happening for APB and has been for months even during beta with many of us reporting it.

I really, really hate the micro transaction model for games for this reason, they must be getting their "list" of countries from the same place. :/

That is bad however the good news is unlike most other microtransaction games you only ultimately need real money for skins, and to play enough to unlock characters isn't that bad.
Unfortunately another way round it would be to buy a collectors pack that comes with rp. But those are pretty much all sold out - out of interest what is the problem can't you just choose uk?

It's based on my IP and spent ages finding a proxy, but tbh I'm not using card/paypal and password details on a public random proxy.
Hopefully getting a friend to set one up for me.

Yes, I do want to by a character but it's taking ages at the moment to get enough.

Good idea - that's probably the best solution at the moment, does seem strange of Riot - i'm guessing there is some trade reason behind the scenes

It happens :( We ultimately lost but was in the balance for far longer than being 4 should have been :)

Next game was a bit of an epic with us defending the nexus with no towers/no inhibtors and there team down - minions won the game for them :(

Well like I said before, generally it's because of an oversight, many websites don't even have Jersey on a pull down box. For example steam have "fixed" theirs about 3 times since this issue appeared, messing up the charge of VAT or it not working and saying "it appears your card details do not match your address" amongst other things. I often have to get other people to gift stuff on steam and I pay them.

I'll believe it's a mistake more than a trade reason but it's occuring more often recently. I'm not sure where these people get their billing/charging system from but they miss us out a lot.

Check out the spreadsheet on the first page which shows what are the most effective runes to get

Patch notes for new patch which I think will be out tomorrow am

Big news is you can now trade champions after draft mode of a ranked game with other players. This alone makes me want to try it again :)

Other news is: Towers currently attacking a champion will no longer respond to further calls for help from other champions.

Should reduce tower juggling - good thing imho

after 4 years of playing dota, i'm finally giving LoL a go. 20 minutes until update is complete

Just remember the match making (particularly at the starting levels) does work so when you play you'll be playing against very new players, your impressions will be that it's easy and you'll also see leavers galore. This all starts reducing +level 10 or if you get into premades.

As I say with all new players - check page 1 for tips/tricks and general info :)

I didn't know that if you hit an enemy champ after the tower had targeted another champion then it redirected to you - we should have been doing this trick more often :(
 
okok, just had my first game. was the hero with the bazooka.....aka sniper in dota. found out that closing a few programs made the lag less.....and ran a speed test and also found that naughty talktalk have been throttling my internet :(

the reconnect feature really stands out at the moment. graphics....cartoony. the towers really rape you. i'm jsut comparing everything to dota at the moment because that's all i know.
 
I'd love to get into this game, but after trying out other DOTA-like games, it's apparent you're either veteran, or no one :( And I don't feel like being slammed about the place while trying to learn.
