So they can be up by the time they finish Blue and wolves?
That way you'd get Wraiths > Blue > Wolves > Wraiths and be by Red by the time your smite is off CD?

I think it can make your route faster, because by the time you do blue, then wolves, then come back to wraiths, they will have respawned.

I had someone ask me this question in a bot game yest cause he was using a guide. I prefer having them on blue so I take less damage from the fight and can give a good gank to bot lane once I hit my lvl 4.
Because once Foxfire Ahri comes out no one will buy her older skins at regular price?

Land hooks. Free wins.

Friend is trying out AP Meowkai, this is hard to watch.
Even if I miss hooks I still have a knock up, steroid, and an AOE silence, so good.

Sapling Toss is probably the highest damage non ultimate spell in the game. I think I should play AP lane Maokai today.
Cleaver and Devastating Blow do more.
Many, many abilities do more DPS because of the enormous cooldown
Cleaver is highly dependent on enemy HP. Devestating Blow caps below Sapling Throw and doesn't scale as well. Neither of those attacks are AOE damage.

I was 1290ish two weeks ago.
I am now 1550.
I'm either the luckiest person in the world, or I got a LOT better.
Elo heaven man.
The Naut game I got my blue stolen level 1. Forced a 20m surrender.
The earlier Graves game I think I got teamed with Chu8 smurfing on people's accounts for money.

Unless you are facing a xerath(and I'm refering to undercover-OP pre-buff xerath)
It probably helps to have an AP mid you can actually pick.
Ryze looks so boring to play though. I've never played him or owned him but every Ryze I face is just a boring lane.
Just play Ahri.

Why would you go wolves to red? Seems like it would waste alot of time.

Be a man and play TF.
My go to mids are Vlad, Ryze, Xerath (pre-nerfopolous), Fiddlesticks (if against someone with no stun/silence/disable), Lux, Cassiopeia, and Karthus.

I'll try to save for Karthus since I enjoy just passively farming in lane.

Just started playing this yesterday.
Which are the best non-cheap (as in, no Tryndamere or any of those bullshit OP champs) beginner champions? Been using Ashe and Yi, mostly. Since I really don't have the IPs to spend on anyone else, lol. Keep hearing good things about Tristana, but still can't afford her.
Btw, which are the best beginner Tanks? I've yet to play any tanks... =/

Tristana and Alistar are free provided you can be bothered to make a Facebook and Youtube account. Check the OP to see how to get them through Youtube and Facebook. Alistar is a good beginner tank since his ultimate means even if you build incorrectly he's still incredibly tanky. With Tristana you'd get another AD bot carry (who has also been played as AP mid). I think Caitlyn is another good AD carry for beginners since she has a very long range on her auto attack for relatively safe farming compared to other AD carries and she doesn't really have any hard to land skill shots. She's 6300 IP though so she's probably not a good buy early on.
Amumu is another good tank at 1350 IP. His bandage toss and ultimate really hurt the enemy team and also make it obvious to your team to go in on them. His bandage is a skill shot though so that might not be what you're looking for in a beginner champion. Malphite is also a good tank that can play solo top against AD and as a jungler. His ultimate is a skillshot kind of but it's hard to miss; also doubles as an escape. Also 1350 IP.
Soraka is a great support at 450 IP. Kayle is a good AD top (don't play her as support) also at 450 IP since you can shove out melee bruisers with her ranged harass. For AP mid Annie is decent at 450 IP, but I don't play her a whole lot. I think Ryze is ugly and boring (and ugly) so don't buy him even at 450 IP. :x Twisted Fate is a more interesting AP mid at 1350 IP with a really good kit.

go buy garen. hes not great for later levels but starting out hes amazing. his sustain is amazing. combine that with warmogs/force of nature/gardian angel and you become a literally a tank or a wall. all your team has to do is follow you into battle.
shit now i wanna play garen. =/

Have him already. =) I like him alot, too. But he's not exactly a Tank in the tradiotional sense, is he? But yeah, gotta love his versatility!
Complex Shadow
Cudi Lame
he is if you skip GA and FON and replace with infinity edge and sunfire cape. with some other iteams that add crit chance and att dmg. his spins CAN do mini-ish crits (according to southern dragon)
you could also go shen. hes a tank. but dont tell xero you bought him or he'll hate you forever >_>

Garen's spin crits but only the bonus damage ratio. Pretty meh to be honest. His only disruption is Q (long cooldown), and he doesn't have a "look at me!" button. He's not even great at top. Who exactly does he beat? Maybe Renekton.
Complex Shadow
Cudi Lame
Yea but none of his attacks cost anything. But yea he needs a stronger spin IMO. And I doubt they will ever buff him.

Shen was actually my first contact with the game, almost a year ago. He was in rotation at the time I first tried the game and I do remember loving him... but the man's expensive!!!! =S

I used to win top lane HARD with him. Max E then Q and trololol to victory. You have to know when to be really, really aggressive and when to retreat while E is still active. After getting a few kills top you HAVE to roam mid and help secure it. He drops off late game, but not as much as people lead you to believe. He can still output scary amounts of AoE and secure a kill one at least one enemy and silence another for days. Team fights late game are usually long enough for two QE combos.
Your W should help you get out of a lot of messy situations?
This is the route I take for Nautilus as well. Have no problems making it to red by the time Smite is back up.
