Grand Old Thread: League of Legends!

[DarkDragoon]

I wanna be on a legit team =(

:3 Join Team Cosby Sweaters!

And yeah, I got my account back. I posted about it when I did, I think. Level 30 Akali is a million times better than anything else in my whole LoL experience. I'll probably start ranked this weekend after a bit more rune farming, just to fool around.

New way to play/enjoy League:

1. Ignore pre-game chat
2. Goto this youtube stream and play all (don't shuffle)
3. When game starts, type: "/ignore ally" and "/ignore enemy"
4. Now play your best, get them last hits, and follow teammate pings

Note: If you are playing with friends, /ignore ally will unfriend them and block them. The only way to fix this is to re-add them as a friend. Stupid buggy riot.

The objective isn't necessarily to win, it's to play your best. Focus on last hits (cause that's what great players do), focus on map awareness. Ward your lane to protect yourself from ganks. Be ready to dragon/baron whenever your team moves that direction. Play as if you know all four teammates and are trying hard to win together. Oh, and don't tower dive.

If you get a leaver, oh well that happens and there's nothing you can do about it. Move on and try again. If they don't give you buffs (ie. swain gets blue) even though you are right there, don't get mad. When you do play with great players, they will give you the buffs, so no reason to rage quit if something doesn't work out.

Eventually you'll get some of those rare games where people on your team really know how to work together and accomplish objectives. This is what I play for, and it feels good!

I lost 5 straight now, after winning 6 in a row. I've gotten a feeder on my team in all 5 games. I've played league enough to be able to objectively say I'm getting the **** end of the stick in team mates in all 5 of these games. It's scary how bad some of these kids are.

I went 20-9-16 as noct in this last one, including ganking mid (ashe) 3 times successfully in laning phase, and we had an annie against her that STILL managed to go 0-5 in laning, and die 13 times total, with only 150 cs in an hour game.

I told people to play some wards, and the annie bought one and played it over the wall into baron...about 1 minute AFTER the other team had already taken baron. It couldn't have been a more useless ward anywhere on the map, literally.

 

[UTDZac]

At least she bought a ward

 

[ChaosKnight]

chaoX number one in solo Uhohs

 

[Dastrn]

wow i did 541,000 damage in that last game.

edit: broke my streak. 4-0-6 with noct in ranked.

woah chaox has epic music

 

[Dastrn]

another loss. 16-9-8 as xin zhao. we had an 0-11 taric who would just stand in lane and die, and never stunned in fights.

 

[Deleted member]

chaox is very good but he's pretty annoying to listen to

says nikkuh too much

 

[PhantomX]

But isn't that how all the cool kids talk? You gotta say "scrubs" "noobs" or some variation of the N word to be ecool.

 

[DMG]

Hanson: Scrooblet

 

[DarkDragoon]

Okay. I'm gonna play a round of Solo Queue, see how that goes.
First solo queue in almost a week...

And it starts with the client bugging out and not letting me into my game.
GG Riot.
-DD

 

[-Vocal-]

Draft Racing is now one of my favorite custom modes. It's such a different thrill and challenge, and it sucks you in for a couple games at a time

 

[john!]

no, you have to talk like this:

"l0l real terror zzz fk n00b"

your elo will jump to 1800+ instantly

 

[-Vocal-]

We should have an inhouse ARAM. It has been too long.

how do u beat nidalee post 6 in lane

i dont think it can be done

:x Don't let her get to level 6 before you're level 8.

Play Malzahar. Don't give a **** about her heals because you kill her from full.

That or have someone strong gank her repeatedly, especially before level 6.


In other news, playing Soraka has made me lazy. Why worry about farming with other champs when I can just play Soraka, get some g/5 quints and a couple Kage's, and just heal and silence things all game? She's one of the most chill champs to play, such a low stress level.

 

[safehaven]

nid goes back to heal at 5 comes back wiht null magic mantle

ok then u are ****ed gj and she ***** u without mana and while silenced

seriously

:<

Guess it's back to plan B. It helps to play someone that can push as strongly as she can, that way you can at least defend the tower

 

[Shaya]

Yeah..... ummm..... Voidlings **** her.

 

[safehaven]

malzahar is not the solution to nidalee

he isnt the solution to anything. he gets easily countered and interrputed, and everyone knows that anyway

so let me spam my spells to push the lane and get voidlings, that way i can use all my mana to do harass to her which she just heals up instantly. meanwhile im pushed with voidlings that are also pushing

 

[Ragnar0k]

I don't understand this fixation of people believing that Malzahar must use spells the moment they are available.

 

[UTDZac]

I have such a hard time reading sentences with double negatives. Ugh

Cho Gath. She can't harass you out of lain b/c of your sustainability, and if you poke her well enough with your spells you can set up a scream/ignite/feast.

 

[Shaya]

Malzahar can get voidlings ready to go without pushing waves......

Nidalee does not have infinite mana, and she can't farm at her tower prior to level 6.
Not many gankers can "**** with" malzahar if hes warded. Hell, but malzahar doesn't need to push.

All he needs to do is have her not at full health (like 3/4 will do) and then insta gib her with silence + major damage output which she can't bring back up with just one heal, and then you just zone her outside of exp range.

 

[PhantomX]

You're assuming they're stupid. If the Nidalee is smart she'll tank your Visions bounce and then heal it off so you don't get mana. While she has Doran's Ring and much more than enough to deal with you :\ Plus that also ruins your farm.

That's assuming I waste malefic visions.
If she's going to make a habit of tanking malefic visions, she'll be making a habit of tanking voidling damage on top of it.
Which, to avoid it, pushes her out of last hitting range.

I'm not saying malzahar ***** Nidalee, but he can come out on top, and snowballs lane dominance harder than she does.

 

[Spife]

how do I ap tf vs kat?
Or anyone for that matter?
ANyone want to 1v1 my ap tf some time soon to make it suck less? I fail games with him, but when I don't he's so much fun.
Why I ever built ad/as I'll never know.

 

[StealthyGunnar]

i really think ad tf is better, but i guess it's every1's opinion...

i dont like ap tf because his damage is in burst. survive the first couple and if ur stupid enough to come back, well then u deserve to die. ad/as tf provides constant heavy damage, and with tf's passive it works nicely.

best thing you can do is try to stay out of her Q range from level 5 onwards and try to harass/last hit with your Q

 

[lain]

I'm calling intentional. You ******* >:[

Also, I LOVE LoL. It's what I've been doing instead of smash lately. For some reason, League of Legends makes me better at brawl (while not playing any brawl). I beat Tyrant, was up 3 stocks to 1 vs Ally 5th game and STILL lost ><, and have been currently winning everything with MK only. Major lulz indeed.

Also also, Rumble is broken as hell >:o

 

[Frolossus]

wtf lain plays LoL too?
whos next? bowyer? anther?

 

[Shaya]

Hey Lain

Come to australia for greenlighting league of legends.

 

[Dastrn]

hey lain come play league with us. What's your username? I'll add you.

 

[-Vocal-]

I got a guy in the Tribunal that made a teammate cry. There are some messed up people in the world, and I hate the ones that think "it's just the internet" is an actual excuse for being a terrible person.

On the bright side, I've had my limit per day upped to 10 so now I can dole out more punishes.

 

[Shaya]

... i got an email from riot...

They said one of my cases reached a finalisation/whatever. They congratulated me and awarded me

Five Influence Points

 

[Ignatius]

That's about what was calculated out after they nerfed the IP from 500 a day to 1k a week.

Its honestly not worth it to read cases once you have 30 a day, just punish and assume they're all guilty. Don't even read anything, just tab back whenever you think a minute has passed.

 

[jpak]

the eu teams are real good
