We all have bad games, usually its because of teammates

And if we win...its because of teammates (or we got fed!)

I was in queue and didnt know who to pick so i asked eveyone if Galio was good and they said "ug, another newbie"

Then i was asking about his abilities and build orders and no one knew, then i said that I would lane with the person that kept saying "ug, he doesnt know what hes doing". So I laned with him and he died even before the minions came :P

Then by the end when I was carrying the team i said I was joking and main Galio...no one laughed :(

No no, no sense of humor on most people. But most of them take the game WAAAY too seriously. I can understand making a big deal if you lose a ranked game cause of something stupid, but normal games really are just for fun and practice as far as I'm concerned.

If you wanted practice go play a practice game

Heh, quite true. Though I'd like to avoid dying 14 times again.

Some of the people who need to play this really need to lighten up. The game only records your wins and only saves K/D/A from your last 10 matches.

Hey Morph that's good that your kicking ass with Galio I remember you were talking about buying him. Also thanks OP for listing all the cags on the first post, I'll go ahead and add up everyone, just look out for Bravo.

Browsing on Kotaku right now and saw that the Valve Dota 2 is legit.

http://kotaku.com/5663018/valves-new-game-is-dota2

I hope this makes Riot get that Lava level, and hopefully the other improvements, done quicker now that Valve is throwing their hat into the game.

The first page of the general discussion and off topic forums at LoL was all "VALVE'S DOTA2!!!" LoL

Hey guys, I'm new to CAG.

I play LoL every so often (when I can stomach the childish attitude of LoL players), if you want to play a few games one day then add my summoner: Kray

The champions I usually play are: Sona, Twitch, Amunu, Shen and a few others.

Look forward to seeing you in game.

HOLY SMOKES

BEST GAME EVER LAST NIGHT!@!!!!

Was me (Zilean), Waughoo (Kass), and 3 other random people (Ashe, Singed, and Kog).

This was one of those once in a lifetimes epic fights. The game went back and forth the whole time. We had a bad start and Singed was giving up. I said noo, dont worry, we are late bloomers. Then we had a huge teamfight near our base and we pushed ALL THE WAY to their nexus and knocked the 2 towers down, then we died. Then we were back and forth for another 20-30 minutes? Then they had ours down, and they were about to beat us, but then ashe scared them with a stun arrow and they were stupid and ran away from her and Kog while the rest of us rezzed. Then we rezzed and Singed and I got to their base in around 10 seconds due to my speed boost, and then we were knocking their nexus down and the rest of our team finally came and finished it.

This was the best match EVER.



Hey Waughoo, I think you need to invest in more AP items, that might help your Kass do assassin stuff. Maybe read a guide on leaguecraft if you havnt?

Sounds like a lot of fun. One of my games yesterday was against a Dr. Mundo who finished 20/4/18. Of course he was on the other team.

Hey guys i love LoL and would love to have a whole community to play with!

I am generally on latenights EST because of work and school, tonight I will be up until 4-5am (or w/e they shutdown the server for patches ><).

My in game name is Gog0 and I play olaf(jungle) ezreal, ashe, anivia and morde.

I also have a vent that my friends and I generally hang in if anyone would like to join.

Oh and my xfire name is gog0727

Pretty big patch

If I like starcraft 2 will I like this game too? I've read reviews but it always gets compared to Heroes of Newerth and Dota, and I've never played either of those (never played Dota cuz the community would get mad at you if you weren't good).

can i be successful in this game if i play it casually? (also play starcraft 2 very casually)

This game has almost nothing in common with Starcraft 2. If you've ever played Warcraft 3, imagine a game where you only control the heroes. No units you can control, just the heroes. For hero choices, I believe LoL has around 60 or 70 different heroes right now, with a new one that comes out at least once a month....sometimes faster.

If you find my description lacking, the game is 100% free to play. You could play the game for months and never have to give them a dollar. Might be easier for you to just download it and play.

Looks like Evelynn, Ryze, Teemo, and Jax got a rework and some buffs.

Suprised Ryze got a buff, he was pretty good already.

Miss Fortune got a moderate nerf. Makes sense, she's a really strong mid and all around pretty strong.

Urgot removing recommended clearest thing they did. I played him and was like WTF??? this guy is recommended... He's confusing to play and pick items for.

Originally Posted by Salamando3000 For hero choices, I believe LoL has around 60 or 70 different heroes right now,

that's about enough to convince me to play lol. didn't download to try out myself cuz i live in canada and most ppl have bandwith limitations here (40gb / month >.<)

This game is very easy to learn. It has a level system so when you start out you will be level 1 and play against other level 1 players. I didn't know how to play these games at all, but I learned very quick.

As long as you are ok, you will be fine. There will always be 12 year olds calling you out for dying, but often those players are very terrible players. And you probably won't be able to win with that team anyway.

I wish there was a magic button I could push to play with mature players, but... that's always an issue with online games.
