So, anyone playing League of Legends?

[Ulminati]

I play, but I can't stand the community. I usually play for a few weeks until the excessive trolls, crybabies and all-around assholes of the game get to my nerves and then I just stop for a month or two. Fun game, otherwise.

there are 2 solutions.

1) Play 5-man premades with friends. (Most of us do).

2) /ignore all

or 3. FEED OF IT!!.
All the Tears, the Anger, the crying and the name calling only make me stronger.

5-man premade (or however close you can get) improves your LoL-experience by 10000%. Fact.

Flash is the get-out-of-gank-free spell. If you are caught out of position or make a mistake, flash will save you. Infinitely more useful then any of the other summoner spells. You can just do so much with it.

Trollololo

Trundle doesnt use flash. lololo

Just played most annoying champ ever. Funny shit. Nice jungling, needs lots of pots but very fast and effective and that pillar must make people mad. With Contaminate he gets like 500 move speed and shitload of cc reduction , just runs around and pisses people off. Nice ulti, can solo dragon easily at early levels(6+).

 

[Phage]

I don't get it, are you trying to show off?

 

[Zed]

If he was showing off, he'd show a score screen from a different game.

 

[Markman]

Not really, what am I supposed to show off?My 3 game win streak?Just showing. Found it fun to win 3 games in a row with a champ pretty much nobody plays. Didnt see much talk about Trundle so I figured Id post about him.

Lost the 4th game though, funny thing happened, I gave Udyr solo top vs Swain and all he was building whole early game was Phantom Dancer. He got stomped 6-0 till his tower was wrecked. Why the hell does Udyr needs a PD as a first item vs Swain? Him being squishy as hell lost us the game.

How to spot a newbie in League of Legends: He builds Phantom Dancer as his first item.

why? like honestly. i am a newbie and do that sometimes ^^

Attack Speed =/= Attack Damage

Attack Speed scales much better with high attack damage than the other way around, and similarly, Attack Damage is a better early-game investment. Similar with Crit. Both Crit and AS only does something when you've already built som AD.

I perfectly understand the reasoning behind an early Phantom Dancer, but doing the math will show you that, even on champs that synergize with AS, AD is a must first (unless you built tanky melee DPS, then something like tankyness into tankyness, into Wit's End into Atma's might be an idea).

 

[Ulminati]

Pretty much haven't played LoL for a week. Everyone I want to play with is on EU west and the few games I have had on EU east has had some retart yelling Kurwa in /all chat or 2 people speaking russian.

Shame they didn't delay the IP boost until AFTER we could transfer out of the ghetto.

 

[Markman]

I didnt experience any language barriers more than usual, and by their nicknames its mostly russians,serbs and polacks. I get more swedes too. But quality of gameplay has decreased by alot. I hardly see some very good players, its like game is in training mode. Everybody acts like crybabies, they dont know what to do in teamfights, no map awereness, never buy wards, ragequitting. Only when im duoqueing i get some decent games.
Elo hell for real.

That said, the movespeed bonus cna be a life saver. I don't play AD carries that often. when I do play them however, my build order is usually something like this: 2x dorans blade->BF Sword->Boots->Zeal->Upgrade BF Sword->Upgrade boots->upgrade Zeal
And then either banshees veil or more offensive items depending on how well my team is protecting me.

 

[Berekän]

Maokai is one of the funniest tanks I've played, pretty hard to kill and does wonders in a teamfight.

Too bad it's 6300 and I'm saving for a Twitch...

I am "fac3melt0r" on EU.

Though I would complete the infi-edge/bloodthirster before building a zeal, that's certainly a viable way to go about it from my point of view (a "safer" build than mine, so to speak). The important thing is that you get some damage before starting the zeal

You should only build a second doran's blade if you're not dominating your lane, or somehow losing it. If you're winning you should invest money into your core build.

Twitch is considered the worst champ, I do believe.

A good rule is to (almost) Always Buy If You B (so that time spent out of a lane is never for naught). As such, you don't necessarily need to lose your lane to buy more Doran's Blades. 3x Doran's Blade is seen more often than not in high tier ranked. It's useful because it gives you an edge in the lane, enabling you to harass better, push back opponents, denying them XP and creep kills, or perhaps even getting a kill.

Yep, he currently he ranks as number 1 on the All-time Awful Champs list, or at least that seems to be the general consensus.

 

[Ulminati]

I'd rather have a twitch on my team than an ezfail. A moderately competent twitch can still scout and help the jungler gank.

 

[Jasede]

Why is it that every normal game on the US server you get at least three people from Brazil speaking exclusively Portuguese?

 

[Markman]

God damn,15 million accounts. Lets say 2/3 parts of that are smurfs, still its a big fucking number.

 

[Ulminati]

Still waiting on that server transfer so I can play with the people I made my account to play with again. Befoer the split, they were all "Oh, we'll give everyone a free transfer after the split". Now any inquiries as to WHEN those transfers will be in are met with silence. They're conspiciously absent from the patch notes too.

 

[Lupus]

At least you can play. I, for one, am unable to connect to server after champion selection. What's better, it happens only on EU East where my main is. I made a smurf on EU West and can play every game on him. I don't mind retards as I mostly play in arranged 5 team, but this because of this fucking bug I cannot play at all. When transfer will be available I will probably just move with my group to West if they won't fix it.

 

[Grunker]

Seriously?

For me, things have inclined to the extreme after the server split. I have a queue time of 10 minutes max no matter when I log in, and potato-speech is rare and doesn't happen in ranked.
