Hey guys. I just started playing new computer games since I am taking a break from Reach. I've been playing RuneScape (lol), StarCraft 2, and League of Legends.

Does anyone else play?

I play a little bit of LoL. It's pretty good. Although I think there idea on balance was just to make every unit broken.

i love LoL Kennen is my BOY! crazy fast mobber and can do sick tower DMG, id like to really get good with other champs tho seems like Kennen lacks in 5v5 but rocks in 3v3 i have almost all the champs unlocked besides the 6 most recent.

Yeah I don't play 3v3 much. I find I have more fun in 5v5s. Lux is my main. Her laser is so pew pew! Playing her on 3v3 she seemed broken. With the split of Zhonya's and Kennen's recent nerfs, he's isn't able to do quite as much damage anymore. Never really played him though. Rammus needs a nerf. They need to nerf his powerball speed instead of nerfing his taunt CD like they did. League sounds like they have a lot of awesome stuff planned for the game and I think all new game types and maps should be released at the end of season 1.

Yeah Renekton is sick. He needs a little buff for early game etc., which will come on tomorrows patch. Malzahar is sick. I haven't played him at all unfortunately.

I feel like in this game they have the potential to do a lot of things, yet they focus on new champions coming out every 2 weeks. I know they have been working on new map development as well as achievements etc.

You should add me man, account is Crinkly Duke.

01-31-2011, 01:00 PM
no doubt will do bro hey have you played Caitlyn?

Crinkly Duke
01-31-2011, 01:15 PM
no doubt will do bro hey have you played Caitlyn?

Yeah she's a little lack luster in my opinion. Her Q does good annoying damage early on. It got an early game nerf this past patch, but they tried to give it viability later in the game. I think they need to let her have 3 traps out instead of 2. If you take her AD/AS she can be good, but there are just better carries out there.

Her ult is a bit better now that it got some damage added to it, but it still just, sucks. It's too easy to have a tank just jump in the way and have no consequences for it, but it is fun to watch an unorganized team just split the seas and let it go right through to hit the squishy for the kill.

Basically if u get a good farm she's decent. If not, your in trouble. Her escapability is questionable, but her range is nice. If you go mid, depending on who you get, can just be awesome for you as she can outrange most. Her passive is nice as well. She's really squishy as well unfortunately, but if she wasn't she'd probably be broken haha.

I think she's 6300, not worth it in my opinion. Keep in mind all my opinions are based on 5v5.

HavkinKnight
01-31-2011, 01:24 PM
yeah most of teh Champs i want right now are Crazy Costly at 6300

Crinkly Duke
01-31-2011, 01:29 PM
Yeah, if you like doing a lot of things, and like using skill shots you should give Ezreal a chance. He is 6300, but really fun in my opinion. The fun factor to me in this game is skill shots. Single targets don't take much skill and just don't give as much satisfaction when you hit with them. Ezreal has that full map ult that, when you go AP can really start a battle or help even if you aren't around. It's just like Lux's laser except, full map range and it's a bit slower. Does more damage too. Lot's of satisfaction pulling off kills with it when they go out of sight. :)

i enjoy him i have him hes tight i just seem suck and some Champs and he is kinda one of them lol i mained Ashe for a while then we to poppy then to Kennen so i have not played enough of my champs to find a nitch person.

Yeah. It's really finding about what character that has a play style that meshes with yours. I love the ranged casters and support, which makes Lux perfect for me. I need to get on Morgana since she has the same basic skill set, yet puts out much more damage so she's higher tier. I find that's how I play most games, I like to be the support player. I found it daunting at first when picking up the game, just at the sheer amount of characters that you know nothing about. But over time you just start to learn what each can do, and their strengths and weaknesses.

The free champion rotation really lets you get a feel of other characters before you drop the IP.

01-31-2011, 05:12 PM

My brother in law just got me into this game. And I find it really addictive.
Here is a list of pro's and con's

Pros
-FREE, unless you pay to get credits to buy stuff faster then others.
- Slightly competitive
- looks amazing
- Central Server, meaning NO HOST ADVANTAGE

Cons
- if bad at the game, and have no friends to play with gets boring real fast
- Some what unbalanced, but with updates every 2 weeks everything slowly evens out.
- Addictive.
- No in-game voice communication, need ventrilo ( or other software)



OP: make a list in first post of players.

Too bad that map probably isn't coming any time in the near future. =/ They mentioned the map so long ago and now all they've been saying is it will be out "Soon" for like 6+ months. Urgot is sick, even with his recent bug fix his range is so massive, pisses me off so much when I lane against him.

If urgot is the rock dude, yeah I hate it when he is in my lane, I play ashe, so u can know how I feal, big strong rock type vs, tiny weak elf with range.

Toomuchmooin
03-12-2011, 06:47 PM
The rock dude is Malphite who I used to used until i realized I suck tanking but I'm good at dishing out damage fro far away. The map was mentioned a long time ago but I feel like we might be getting the big graphic update soon, they just need to stop freaking out about minor balancing issues and build new maps. At this point there are so many heroes its confusing so I wouldn't mind if they cut back on that too.

League of legends in the EU has decided to Split the Server into EU East and West.

Now EU east consists of the smaller counties. And Eu west is mainly the English Understanding countries. However Riot have completly and utterly screwed over Scandinavia(The largest collection of English 2nd Speakers in Europe) and put them with people who have Little to no english knowledge. Therefore games on ladder will involve about 9 different languages.

I also did a quick FTFY for the Riot forums
