Anyone try roaming Morgana? Boots of Mobility, 2 Doran's Ring, 3 Lucky Pick. Sell off the Doran's mid to late game, depending, for Deathcaps. You actually don't have to roam with this build. Although it's pretty fun running Morg around the map

It's actually been working for me but I am not playing the best of players. (Solo Q Normal)

God I hate free Blitzcrank week. Just played a ranked game with a 3/17 Blitz and a 9/20 Shaco. Those two players counted for 80 percent of the enemies' kills. The rest of the team was good - I went 13/5 on Singed, we had a 4/2 Olaf and 11/6 Brand - but it's impossible to overcome that kinda handicap...

I had one on my team that used powergrab once or twice during the entire game. We still won but that was annoying as hell.

So I've noticed there are a bunch of the Jax PAX skin codes on Ebay but none of the Twisted Fate ones. Has anyone seen or heard of a place to find the TF one or would want to trade for something?

PEOPLE ONLY REMEMBER WHEN I MISS A GRAB. ya jerks.

People will shout praise when you single handily win the game.

They will also curse you when you miss.

Doublelift or bust.

That's why I play Ashe, arrows from across the map all day.

[Ferny]

I played a game as Ashe earlier today and had the best arrow ever with her but sadly with no replay, I can not show you cool pplz.

 

[SouthernDragon]

An Ashe once Arrow'd me in the face, point blank. I was stunned.

 

[Neki]

point blank arrows are for the quick get away!

 

[Uchip]

Riot is so fucking slack with adding a replay feature and voice chat
HoN had that since day 1

casuals don't need or care about voice chat or replays so why would they?

and yet they just had a 100,000 dollar tournament for non casuals

casuals are the ones buying skins and heroes though.

bullshit
and you dont have to be pro to want demos and chat
its pretty much a given for online games

Voice chat will not be implemented. The wait for replays have been horribly long. The funny thing is that a third party completed Lol replays before Riot:

Granted, it is not as good as the HoN replay, but it's "better than nothing". :lol

says who?

 

[Leezard]

says who?

A Riot dev. I don't have a direct link or remember who said it, but their reasoning was basically that voice chat with LoL/HoN community sucks since there will loads of oral flaming in addition to the written flaming. (Also, I believe they said that any serious team will use vent/mumble/ts anyway, so it wasn't "needed" per their logic.)

thats a piss poor reason
you can easily have the option to mute people
and its pretty much impossible to get a team on vent unless you are premade every single time.

who doesn't play on premades, only way to win!

 

[Ikuu]

Most people are complete pussies and afraid to say something so just type it out.

 

[Uchip]

so many times queuing with 4 people
and you get that one random that ruins it for everyone

 

[Shalashaska161]

Anyone playing tonight? I feel like doing nothing but LoL until e3 tomorrow :lol

Edit: My handle is DIKSMAKR.

Riot makes a lot of stupid bullshit up. A simple "Turn Voice Chat On/Off" button would fix any oral flaming.

Went on a crazy winning streak yesterday with friends. Best night of LoL in a while.

Got my rank points back to 1204, started winning and getting the feel of 3v3 premade ranked.

Maokai really is a great tank but the only problem is you'll never get recognised for it. Nobody realises it when you're playing but 20% reduced damage is a shit load.

I need to refocus on Brand a bit Getting mad weak on him.

gj on your elo, i've got a friend trying to get back up to 1200 but he can't seem to do it lol

I'm going for 2k myself, going to be hard though!

for what
solo queue?
dont play on Fridays

 

[Legato.Reborn-]

yeah solo, 1617 elo on 5s right now but i can't realistically expect that to go much higher since my team keeps getting queued against fucking regi and them late at night..

so annoying not having teams around our experience level

you either stomp the 1200-1500 teams (casuals) or you get the clg/tsm/rs teams (2k + elo)

 

[Kozak]

Thanks! Yeah it does get hard trying to get back up to 1200. You hit a lot of walls on the way up.

2k sounds crazy. Any ambitions by your team to try for DreamHack next season?

We're getting more and more serious as time goes on, hopefully one day you guys will recognize me in a stream for a tournament!

We just signed up for WCG though, so we'll see how that goes. (Match tomorrow)

The biggest problem for us right now though is communication, we're still very bad at reading each others movements and that tends to lose us some games.

I finally got the hang of orianna and i got a steady build. I am one happy man.

LOL.
I just bought Blitz (didn't see he was free, d'oh) but he's so hard to play. No idea how to build him, I'm getting Trinity, Banshee's, Frozen Heart and whatever.
He's rewarding when you actually manage to do stuff right.

 

[Spruchy]

Keep crashing in-game to bugsplat, anyone know what it could be?

 

[Ferga]

i'm getting that too! fuck it's annoying

It's to do with your computer. I've read some threads on it and apparently its to do with adobe air, directx or duplicated copies of the game. Formatting seems to work for a lot of people so try that

 

[SouthernDragon]

I could have easily gotten more kills. I brought Fiddle down to 10% with R alone. I had more than 400 damage.

 

[Uchip]

I advise getting this http://mumble.sourceforge.net/
if you want to play with me and my friends without getting yelled at

nah, you won't get yelled at, they'll just not call missing and let you get raped. D:

I usually do a tank/AD hybrid. Start with mana crystal + 2 HP pots > Tear + Boots > Sheen > CDR boots > Tank item (preferably something that gives you mana like Banshees or Frozen) > Manamune > Situational - Triforce if your team needs more power, tank items if you need more defense.

My strategy is to just work up a HUGE pool of mana so I can outlast other DPS. When I fight one-on-one with a melee chara, I'll be doing upward of 600ish damage with my powerfist, like 200 AD autoattacks with speed buffs from W and 300 from the Ult's passive. Meanwhile, my mana pool will be like 3K by the end of the game, so the other DPS will have to go through my 2.5K worth of hit points and then an additional 1.5K from my manashield (passive).

It's pretty easy to max out Tear - because W no longer slows at the end, you should be using it all the time, with CDR boots+Frozen or Ramuens, it will come off CD right when the effect ends. Same with Powerfist - CDR should be down to maybe 2-3 seconds at max level + the right items.

Blitz is tough to use, but he's definitely a character that will help you improve at the game.
