League of Legends anyone?

Last hitting is interesting on Swain. His attack speed seems faster than other casters. I don't have the general pacing down yet. But I'll work on it.

I just played my first normal match with him >_>; up against a team of 30s no less. We lost, but I was kinda surprised by the results. I could actually kill Mundo. And it took all three of them to take me down solo. But MP... that was a giant pain in the ass. And no blue buff in 3 v 3 :(.

xD The ult rocks though, I was fighting minions at our broken bottom turret alone and all of a sudden a stealth Eve stunned me and started taking me down. I was at half health, popped my ult and ran back to spawn.

I wasn't even able to get back to spawn, but my ult restored my health to full and killed Eve while I was running.

Never used Deathfire Grasp, but I'll test it out next game.

that... wow...
 
I'm done with solo queue.

My team was Lux, Nasus (solo top), Olaf (jungle), Kass (bot w/ me) and me, Renekton.

I hid at bush near Red and Twitch came, me and Kass got him. We did well laning but then everyone did stupid shit like Nasus tried to solo dragon and got ganked, I got killed trying to help him. Lux was getting blue while Trynd was attacking our turret. Olaf never built Wriggles and instead just got tank items but no Atma's.
 
I think OP champs make the game more interesting, kind of similar to a lot of competitive fighting games.

Also, have no idea how you guys can sit through a co-op game. I'd play a million terrible normals with real people than play LoL with A.I.
 
I'm nearing 80 Co-op matches atm xD. I even have more Co-op wins than normal wins. You still get crappy people in Co-op, but they don't matter as much. And there's only 4 other people in the game, so the chance of grievers is a bit lower.

I'd rather shoot myself than play a million awful games in normal.
 
id shoot myself i ever had to play a game against bots



I used warwick for first time ever and it was such a mess

1 person on my team didnt pick, so he ended up smite/rally corki

so i was mad and ran right into mid and died at tower for the hell of it

then i bitched at corki

then i went mid as warwick against irelia AND chogath

then they surrended at 20 minutes

Soraka owned trist top lane

Shen and Anivia owned bottom lane

And I owned both of them while corki was afk half the game

I went 12-2-20 AT THE 20 MIN MARK

muhahahaha

I went ignite/ghost and tankie. sorc boots, sunfire, frozen heart
 
I just got called "the best Anivia player I've ever seen" by three folks (^0^)/. Course, two of those folks were on the enemy team... and they had an Anivia as well. They might have just been bitter that theirs didn't carry as well as I did.

Been playing a lot of Swain in Co-op and I'm getting mixed results. If I don't get fed, I'm kinda just the annoying champion on the side. Course, I kinda get defensive items last since it's against bots.
 
He isn't OP. He's an AD caster like Pantheon, not an auto attacker. Because of that and his naturally long cooldowns, he's very dependent on cooldown reduction. Unfortunately for him, he's a manaless melee champion, so he only has 4 options for CDR: Ionian Boots, Spirit Visage, Ghostblade, and Randuin's Omen. However, getting the Ionian Boots makes him more susceptible to CC, so you have to choose between doing fewer attacks (thus less damage) or more vulnerability to CC. The patch that nerfed every defensive CDR item hurt him. The only other option is Stinger but it's useless since it can't build into anything useful and attack speed isn't how to build him.

He's good laning since he can do damage without his Fury boost, but late game you need the Fury to do significant damage.

Honestly, I consider Xin to be more OP. Xin might as well be manaless because his abilities use so little. His Q is an AD steroid with a disabler, his W is a AS steroid (passive and active) that reduces all other CDs, his E is a great gap closer+slow for chasing, and his ult is a great initiator dealing a lot of damage and giving him increased defenses. And his passive ability helps him stay in lane.

IMO, what makes Renekton seem better is he has so much AoE damage and can clear minion waves in seconds. Late game, Renekton can jungle in seconds (Wraiths and Wolves go down in one Q). Which means it's much easier to get his full build without kills/assists. Xin on the other hand relies on attack speed build or his W being up to clear minions/camps, but even with that it takes him much longer.
 
He is damn near impossible to kill and does shitloads of damage. EVERY game my friends and I play against a Renekton he absolutely dominates.

Anyways, just played the most one sided game ever.

Our team:
Pantheon (me) - 15-1-14
Ashe - 15-3-22
Shen - 14-1-28
Sona - 13-2-36
Veigar - 17-5-23

Total and complete annihilation. If they weren't talking in chat I would've thought they were bots.
 
x__x Is there anyway to hide offline while being online? I just wanna play some nice relaxing Co-op games, but when I was watching a stream by a player named Atlanta and the folks in chat asked if anybody wanted to play a few games. I gave out my summoner name and now once a game finishes, I get invites seconds after.

:( Why do higher leveled folks yell more often too? I'm not Jesus, I make mistakes! Wait, does Jesus make mistakes? Either way, I thought I did well my past two games.

Who are you playing as?

He's a lot like Olaf and Yi. You need to shut him down early because he snowballs late game. If you let him farm (minions or champs), he's going to cause problems but that's the case for a lot of champions.

I've been playing Pantheon a lot lately. Out of the past five or so times I've played against Renekton, I think I've laned against him once. Nobody really feeds him though.
 
haven't seen a panth in a long time, they usually are pretty beast too.

i enjoy playing with people who are having a good time regardless of what's happening. people get pissy so easily in DotA games, it's much nicer to just laugh at how bad a play was as opposed to destroying your team's morale with insults.

and surrender at 20, don't be rude.

Pantheon is really good early/mid game, but late game he becomes kind of pointless. Even if you build him heavy AD, he still doesn't really put out enough burst damage to do much. His leap/stun is pretty helpful though.

I agree with the surrender at 20 comment as well. So tired of playing games where we get ass raped, yet pubbers refuse to surrender. They have 15-20 more kills and six towers while we have none, we aren't going to make a comeback.
 
Yeah, I did that my one good Pantheon game. Their Akali was carrying them and doing insane burst. Our Fiddle got an Oracles which made her shroud useless. My priority in team fights was just jumping in to stun her and then getting out of there.
 
:( Games have been getting a lot harder lately.

Man, when I started out, I was 23W:11L. Now I'm 63W:63L. You'd think after finally getting a few T3 runes I'd fair better too.

On a side note, I probably have the lowest normal win count a lvl 21 has EVER had.

The Riot system is designed to keep you at a 1 for 1 set up. I have had ranked games where every one on my team was 200 ELO lower than anyone on the other team. Considering you get 10-12 ELO per win that game seems like it was a set up.
 
Yeah, I too have more losses than wins. Up until like level 20 I was around 15-20 wins positive. Now I have like 20 more losses. I blame shitty pubbers. Its easier to carry at lower levels since there are a lot more people that are completely retarded. I seem to get screwed now with pubbers that are totally clueless while the other team is full of pro Korean kids.
 
I played one last night with HIppo and her hubby. She was Anivia, he was Mundo, I was Kat, and we had a Olaf and a Jungle Shaco. We had a really weird early game where we went to gank thier Warwick at blue, but they were setting up a counter gank. It ended up that noone died, but we got like 3 of them to half health. Mundo and me laned against Morg and Sion. They couldnt do anything with us, and I was like 3-1 fairly early. Top did pretty well too, but Hippo was having some trouble mid against Kassadin. She wasnt dying, but he was harrassing her pretty bad. Shaco didnt gank really. He helped us once on bot by making a bunch of J-I-B's in some grass and just sitting there. The other team actually said "Wow Shaco, you dont gank do you? Just make nests" . We tower dove bottom and killed them and took the tower, top did the same, and when WW and Kass went to stop our side lane pushes, Hippo took mid.
Then it all fell apart.
Shaco kept going in their jungle to steal buffs, but would get ganked. Olaf would prowl their jungles hoping to find one of them alone. He'd find one and get them down to like 1/3 health then the rest of them would show up. We tried to push mid as a team, and right when we would initiate, Shaco or Olaf would run off randomly to top to push the lanes that didnt need pushing. Then we'd die, and Shaco would be like "I dunno why you'd start a fight without me". THen we'd try to D a tower, and Olaf would run in behind the enemies. We'd try to save him, but get aced for our trouble.
Bad pick up players.
 
Patch Preview

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkdP-Xp0N6o&feature=feedu

Notable changes:
Heart of Gold no longer gives Armor. Somehow, it was too overpowered with armor, HP, and gold/sec. They should have just nerfed the armor on it to 18 or 20. They said it might become a recipe for more items.

Wriggles Lantern is getting increased life steal but you don't get lifesteal on the bonus damage proc.

Tanky DPS are getting nerfed. But that happens every patch.

Teemo and Nocturne are getting nerfs.
 
I never had a problem with Nocturne before as of being OP (never played him either, always played against him).

I played a 3v3 with my girlfriend last night. Took us about 15 minutes to find a game. So we get in and the other person is a warwick. It was Annie, Cho'Gath (my GF) and Warwick. The warwick goes with Cho'Gath and leaves me to the top lane alone as Annie :roll:. Then once the game settles in about 5 minutes, when we would push the enemy back, instead of going after the turret, every time he went to go kill mobs in the jungle and he could not kill a single one. Needless to say we lost horribly. Oh well, either way next game I can afford Morgana on this account so I am happy.

GG riot.

If they really had a problem with people stacking hearts of gold they should have made the gold/sec unique.

Riot are a bunch of friggin socialists, they will not stop until everyone and every item is nerfed.

I would rather see them making the below average characters better than random nerfing the flavor of the week. They could also add a few more items to add variety and more strategy to the game, but might as well nerf stuff.

Flipper and I played with an absolutely terrible Renekton, so.... he's only "OP" if you know how to play the friggin game. He's not an automatic win button. We also had a Cho who died a lot, which brings up why did Riot ruin him again?
 
I was thinking about it in class, the Heart of Gold nerf KILLS the jungling tanks (or even Olaf since he can just go straight tank). Cloth Armor+HPs is the staple for them. But now, the only option is a Aegis of the Legion (while a good item, requires you to carry 3 basic items and can take awhile to build if you just jungle). Sometimes you might have a laning tank/support who builds it, too.

Madred's Razors-Not suitable for a tank jungler
Frozen Heart-Too expensive and useless on the manaless champs
Guardian Angel-Too expensive, late game item anyway.
Thornmail-Situational, also rather expensive.
Ninja Tabi-Useless since it's only worth it if they have 5 AD champs and no CC.

Stacking Heart of Gold is stupid and a troll build. It's most viable (but still crappy) on Rammus since armor gives him damage, he has low HP, and can't farm at all without a Sunfire.This was the worst solution to the "issue." They should have increased the cost, decreased the Armor to 20, or make the Gold/sec passive unique for all items. The only champions I often see stacking those is Gangplank or Trynd with Avarice Blade.

I agree on Renekton. He's a good champion; he can lane for awhile, even solo top. But he HAS to be tanky. None of his abilities have range or target. Q is a small AoE, E is a melee, E is a short range blink. His E requires he be in the middle of the battle. As I mentioned on the last page, as an AD caster with long CDs, he's almost required to get the CDR boots, which makes him more vulnerable to CC. Sometimes, Spirit Visage is the only MR he gets.

I get they're also increasing the scaling on their abilities, but what about Olaf? Early game his Q is a gank intiator/harass. Late game, it's either a slow for chasing or just to pop Banshee's. It's really not a great ability for damage. His W is a steroid that scales off HP (which they've nerfed and de-nerfed already), and his E deals true damage. So how is he going to benefit from this change?
 
HoG was pretty key for my irelia build against AD heavy teams -- could go Randuin's Omen after tri-force.
oh well, was getting bored of that anyways.
 
i dont care about the heart of gold nerf

Also, Renekton is easy to lane against for me at least since I played him a few times.

Just know the range of his double E and you will be fine. Im sure if you are melee it will be tough, but ranged is easy mode



Oh....and I bit the bullet and got Garen since I am running out of 3150 champs to get. The other 3 left are: Sona (no way), Le Blanc, and Urgot

Oh, and I love overextending Kat's. They are so easy to gank

1) Wait in bush

2) Wait for Kat to shunpo somewhere

3) kill Kat


And another thing

Summer and I were in a ranked game and our team was full of champions who are assholes.

We had: Singed (me), Nunu (summer), Malz, Teemo, and a Morde.

I kept running around poisoning and throwing people backwards to Malz can ult them and if they escaped Summer would speed me up or iceball the champ.

We were total dicks to the other team :p

Biggest dick move: A team fight was over, we all recalled and their Kat was farming mid still, so Malz comes and ults Kat and she dies. What a douchebag!

And whenever Kat came to ult, I would just run and toss her around to someone so they can kill her.

And their Veigar was almost killing me the whole game, but he just didnt have enough AP to do it.

That game I was like 8-1-21 or something crazy like that.


My new ranked champs i like:

off-tanky/tanky: Singed or Maokai (thinking about bringing this bad boy in ranked)
AP: Malzahar
 
I love Sona, well, I should say I love when my friend plays Sona. We rape lanes with her and Pantheon. You can push for a LONG time and starve the shit out of the other team.
 
Soraka is still fun and OP in the right team.

I used her a few days ago because i was tired and wanted to not try hard.

First real item: Mejia's

Ended up with like 18 stacks, dying maybe 1-2 times and a ton of assists and few kills sprinkled in.

Level E first. That silence hits like a truck.
 
i would play my leblanc if i had runes for her, she's hilarious to play as. my first game with her i got into a 1 on 1 and i was still super confused about her spell order and then bam -- somehow melted the guy in front of me.

she's really amazing with flash too. instant tower dive kills, regardless of their hp.
 
Is there any champ where it would be viable to get Doran's Dagger, Shield, and Ring? It would be funny to do...


Hmmm, should be ok on laning Yi...

I get 3 Doran rings on Maokai

SO THERE

But thats because I get it all back within 4 minutes since I kill everyone.



AND SOME USEFUL INFO THAT I DID NOT KNOW

The buff respawn timers are as follows: Small camps: 1:40 respawn (first spawn 1:40) Red/Blue: 5 min respawn (first spawn at 1:55) Dragon: 6 min respawn (first spawn at 2:30) Baron: 8 min respawn (first spawn at 15:00, I could be wrong about the 8m respawn verified from three sources though)
 
HEY

Who do you guys think the most balanced champion is???

To me, it is Singed.

He has good crowd control, good speed, and can hit hard with his ult.

His downsides is that he is very suseptible to CC and slows since if he can not move, he cant do damage.

His poison trail only works if he can move and if people are stupid enough to chase after him.

Had a team full of pubbers last night that insisted on chasing Singed. At one point he killed three people while he had like 20% of his health because they followed him forever.
