i know this is not the right place to ask, but anyone has a code for Arclight Vel'Koz for LAS?

 

[MrCookiepants]

Whats your OCE IGN?

It's Mayonniqua, lol.

I'm new to the game so I'm not the best.

 

[Nekofrog]

holy shit, another scripter

cass this time. this one was way more obvious, and even her team called her out lol

so this week i've seen: a xerath scripter, an ezreal scripter, and the classic cass scripter

 

[zkylon]

it's never a garen scripter is it

 

[Ghost is Bad]

how do u even script on garen

 

[Wolf Akela]

Auto ult maybe

 

[Stone Ocean]

Dodging all the skillshots to keep your passive up

I haven't had any scripters ever. Guess I'm just lucky.

No. People just get upset at the game and rationalize their inadequacies as other people cheating.

 

[Edwardo]

The HARD truth!

 

[Deleted member 77995]

Scripting can be pretty obvious though.

It's one thing to run around and have that "sixth sense" that channels your inner Faker dodging all the skillshots but some of the vids I've seen on Youtube are pretty convincing (people arbitrarily standing still or flashing/juking into a bad position). The funniest ones are people chasing a low HP enemy when they're full themselves but their scripter forces them to dodge a skillshot preventing them from securing a kill.

I've never had one in any of my ranked games (that I know of) but if someone is cheating and still can't get out of gold then it's whatevs and if people are risking their to account to cheat in normals/arams then I got nothing but pity for them regardless.

So I've been a big Dota 2 player with over 500 hrs and have recently started trying out LoL after taking a long break from Dota 2. I tried LoL around the time Dota was coming out but just hated the art style at the time but love the new look.

I was wondering if anyone had any reccomendations for someone like me to get a better understanding of the differences and what heros I should try first and which ones to stay away from? So far I've bought Yasho (sp?) and tried focusing in him for a bit.

When I first started dota, alt tabing to look at builds was such a pain in the ass during a game. Does LoL have anything similar to Dotas built in Build Helper other than the suggested items from the shop?

Switching topics, are there any other intro videos like the one released for the Bard they have out out? I'm really loving the new art style.

 

[zkylon]

i never once have seen someone script in any of my many games

so yea neko you're just shit <3

also saw this kickass artist doing disney x lol things on reddit:

they don't make much sense (why is mf ariel and not nami? wtf) but i love her style. some more here: http://dreemers.deviantart.com/gallery/

LoL doesn't have an in-game guide sadly.
- probuilds.net = look at what pros recently build per champion
- leagueoflegends.wikia.com = wiki
- lolking.net/guides = written guides

Yasuo is cool though there's really no one like him in Dota 2.

Just play the free week rotations to get to know them better. From this week's rotation, Vayne and Urgot are the more unique ones for Dota 2 players.

 

[Edwardo]

I'd say just play anyone and everyone. You gotta learn em all eventually. You can figure out who you like to play as you go along.

don't listen to this man. Pick who has the highest win rate and start playing them until rito comes in with the nerf hammer, then move on to the next and repeat. You can thank me when you get to Diamond V later.

darius skin thing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdGvCuikMZQ
a new dawn (graves is a badass show) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzHrjOMfHPY
get jinxed (best shit ever) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nlJuwO0GDs

and yea sadly the game itself is really bad resource-wise, but you should find some luck looking up guides on lolking.net

for the most part you can build the recommended items and do ok as you go along learning the different characters. im sure you'll get the hang of it pretty quick coming from doto

also yeah at low levels just play whoever looks cool to you. try maybe looking up videos or guides to learn their skill order and whatever, just like you would do in doto

 

[MrCookiepants]

So is Vel'Koz actually viable as a support? I kinda hate playing immobile champs mid (nightmares from getting camped by Vi as Cass one time).

1. O man you bought Yasuo. He's at a stage where he's really hard to play because he requires so much attention to get a decent level out of him.
2. I recommend Zed, for his power + his vague similarities to ember
3. Those intro videos are just a way for riot to show off and do not have a consistent art style. They are pretty good though.

Only for his Q and E but yes is kinda viable

You need to hit Es once in a while to make it viable.

But if you can do it early on, you basically win the lane with the amount of power coming from the passive.

 

[Blizzard]

holy shit, another scripter

cass this time. this one was way more obvious, and even her team called her out lol

so this week i've seen: a xerath scripter, an ezreal scripter, and the classic cass scripter

A couple of us suggested the Ezreal case seemed more likely to be a booster -- did the skillshots make you certain that it couldn't be human?

 

[Ferga]

A liss mid just died 3 times in the first 2 minutes of laning and rage quit while blaming the jungle for not ganking.

That's hilarious.



He also played a terrible fiora in my previous game. Man. How unlucky am I to get matched with him twice with 2 games in between them

I like League. I like Avatar + Studio Mir. I don't like that vid. Seeing Alex with Kha'Zix claws is just so cringey.

 

[Negaduck]

What roles or heroes did you play in dota? I just from dota to league every once in a while so I still have a ton of dota experience and might be able to help you in the transfer.

No. People just get upset at the game and rationalize their inadequacies as other people cheating.

no, when a champion is legit hitting skillshots with no vision every single time because the scripts have an AOE ring around them that allows skills to go off automatically when a champion enters it is really obvious.

 

[Newt]

Most fun ranked game in a while. No-one raged, when we lost a teamfight we discussed what we did wrong. Made a plan that Diana would focus Sion, Zed would focus Jinx and me, Sona and Irelia would take care of Viktor. Feels good when everyone on your team plays their part.

 

[Blizzard]

no, when a champion is legit hitting skillshots with no vision every single time because the scripts have an AOE ring around them that allows skills to go off automatically when a champion enters it is really obvious.

How could scripts detect when a champion enters the ring without vision? Surely scripts can't hack to detect champions out of vision range, like hiding in bushes.

 

[Wolf Akela]

There are scripts for auto dodging skillshots. It only needs to detect the projectile.

 

[Deleted member 77995]

There are also scripts for Jinx/Ashe/Ezreal if someone is recalling and low they'll automatically use their ult to hit them right when they're back at base. They don't need vision either, could be across the map.

Thinking about branching out my "serious mode" champ pool now.

Top - Jax and Vlad, want to add Gnar into that mix
Mid - Vlad and Talon, thinking of adding Yasuo
Jungle - Xin and sometimes Mumu, fine with those two
Support - Solely Zyra lately. Might start playing some Lulu
ADC - Varus, need to play more Kog

I dont see the IP bonus for playing with friends, only get an extra 116 IP but locked

im just gonna play leblanc from now on

ori ult is too stressing when everyone has a dash lol

maybe better players but im too much of a shitter to play ori anymore

Nasus is legit zero fun to play against. I don't get how people enjoy top in general.

Top is usually a feed or be fed lane. I have yet to see a comeptent top lissandra do well against my swains and galios.

Also Heimer is the Top God.

 

[bokn]

Heimerdinger's mid win rate is 56% somehow.

 

[Mister Negative]

Heimerdinger's mid win rate is 56% somehow.

probably the easiest champ to turn a 1v2 gank situation around with

 

[Blizzard]

Indeed, a wise choice!

Junglers ganking into 2+ placed turrets are almost as fun as junglers ganking past a giant minion wave that murders you.

 

[Ghost is Bad]

1v1 lane dood.

 

[Jeff-DSA]

WTF is going on right now? Did some new script come out that's not being detected? Just had a Nasus using a dodge script and his own team told us to report him for it since he was bragging about it in team chat.

 

[Edwardo]

Damn I need to not spam my buttons when I play LB
