I hope you like getting pushed out of lane at level 3

I generally puddle and stand well back. Unless the LB brings wards to lane, the only way she'll push me out at lv3 is by exposing herself to the jungler. Of course, since my Morgana tends to focus on farming and ganks instead of killing mid, I tend to go with teleport instead of ignite. So being pushed out of lane is a minor inconvenience at best.

Yeah that's another thing to consider although ignite is a bit more useful lategame. But with LeBonk they're already disadvantaged more than enough to make that lack of ignite meaningless late game.

:troll:

That's actually something I was thinking about after that glorious 5-man codexian premade yesterday. That I should have taken teleport against vlad as singed instead of ignite. I couldn't farm let alone kill him as he would win due to better sustain/harass. Still that was irrelevant as I was in fact the only person who didn't feed that game and it ended in a glorious 20 minute surrender by the hivemind team.

Farm, farm, farm.

Pick up creep camps while moving between lanes in the jungle. If you push the enemy out of the lane, suggest pushing to turret so it kills your creeps (and pick up some CS in the process). If someone on your team bluepills while you're nearby, hold their lane for a while and last-hit. The reason the other jungler is getting ahead is because he's not having periods of farming inactivity where he's running up and down the river. If your ganks are not producing kills/assists, you're hurting your gold and level income even if it helps your lanes.

This game needs to remove chat and just have a communication system that allows you to say "building aegis" "Ward this" "kill drake" "OB 7:30" without typing anything. Even though I'm not very good at Starcraft 2 playing it is so refreshing because I don't need to endure people behaving like retards and even when they do it's more like funny in a sad way.

P. much, you must get all the farm you can while still maintaining pressure. Sometimes, it's better to to not go for ganks if they are unlikely to succeed and just farm up instead. If a gank succeeds, either in getting a kill or just forcing the enemy laner to go back, make sure to push to his turret, grabbing all the cs you can in the process (gank tax, more or less). Take the turret if you can for more gold.

Mute everyone, use pings. They changed the mute function so it doesn't block pings anymore.

Every time someone suggests LoL needs to have built-in voice for soloQ games, I think about what the average player is like and wince

Oh gods those games that have voicechat automatically turned on, it made me believe there exist demonic filthy mickey mouse creatures in our world. Some sounds can't possibly be either human or animal.

I realize I haven't posted here for a while. But:

1) Kha'Zix is the most fun I've had with a champion since forever.

2) We miss you Azael and Jim Cojones :( - come to West :3

3) KHA'ZIX IS SOOOO MUUUUUCH FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN :D

Khafix is how you make a really good ad assassin. Give him long ranged poke and presto, he's useful. That goes for Zed as well. I still don't like his jungle though, his clearing isn't as good as say Nocturnes and his ganks aren't quite as snappy as Xing Xongs. He has quite a bit of potential though, get some early kills and everything about him gets so much better it's like he has no flaws.

Aram is fun BTW, I really anticipate the new map if they can implement a good system against dodgers. Maybe I should try that Dominion business too for some variety.

Official ARAM mode has me very :bounce:

I'll probably end up playing that a lot whenever there are no bros around and I don't feel like soloQQ (which is most of the time).

Holy shit every last game I played today massive crying on either or both sides, seven games and five of those are all randoms. League of Sandvaginas.

Maybe I should learn Elise for top lane because it's always best to play bullshit ranged champions unless you have like 2 gap closers and a hard CC. Fucking every tournament match I have watched lately has been crap too, lol we got this here ranged champion + bodyguard let's send them fuck over some lane 1v2, it's sure great being ranged and why not have a bunch of cheap ass escapes and shit too. I'm so bored of all the shooting, it's gay and it's in every game, having the biggest reach is always the most important advantage and kiting is considered great and interesting gameplay, walk backwards and shoot, what cunning maneuver. Walk backwards and fire sonic booms, walk backwards and autoattack, stutter step marines, have 20 Lascannons freaking most PnP RPG's other than Vampire and D&D always have a few useless skills such as "melee" for idiots because it's better to have machine guns. If I motherfucking wanted gay shooting contests I'd play FPS games.

Good gameplay for cowards though, I can shoot you but you can't shoot me, lol this is so great

These are the kind of games we have right now:



You were saying?

Also, the key seems to be to watch games with Danes in them :smug:

We miss you Azael and Jim Cojones :( - come to West :3
Need to hire a Chinese child to grind on my abandoned low level account there.

meh, we can have fun with you at low levels and us at high, I'm sure. Azael, get yourself a smurf. Maybe once in a while the baby and your lady will be asleep at the same time, allowing you to get in a game with the bros :love:

I don't know... LoL matches still pale in comparison to Dota 2 or even HoN, the only cool stuff that happens ALWAYS includes flashing. It's a fun game to play but really fucking boring to watch.

Tell us how you really feel. I'm listening.


Well thank you, but I already finished.

I stopped watching that LCS or whatever that business was because every match I watched had this 2v1 2v1 k let's 3v1 dive that guy crap going on. I sure hope that doesn't become the norm.

I don't play this game for few months now.
Today I got tribunal warning, because of my language in one of the recent games.

Back in the 2012.

Insert Title Here RPG Wokedex Codex Year of the Donut I'm very into cock and ball torture
70 Nami games in S3 and I still love her. At least in my skill level nobody can dodge Q.
Not to mention it is impossible to dodge with E or R slow active.
I don't have anyone to compare myself to, but I think 7.2/1 KDA isn't that bad for a support.

If anyone is interested in playing Nami, here are some observations:
A) She does best in a team with tanky initiators. The threat of her R is worse than the R itself, using it to initiate a fight is usually a bad idea unless it's a counter-initiation. If you have someone like Malph it's the easiest thing to R the entire team, which leaves them stranded and ready to be Q'd.
B) MF and Caitlyn seem to work very well with her.
C) Peeling is one of her greatest strengths so do your best to peel for your adc.
D) You have to poke with her W or you're wasting mana if you use it to just sustain.

My only better frequently-played champs are Karthus, Quinn & Anivia (60%, 61.5% and 70% respectively).
Anivia is really, really eggscellent.
