Boss Z Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 [center]So, I just got home from nerd camp... aka 2 Week Video Game Programing Academy at RPI in NewYork I made some great friends, surprisingly I was about the second least nerdy kid in apperance and 1st in knowledge of nerd things... League of Legends is a Sick Multiplayer Stradegy Game Teams of either 3 or 5 "Champions" go against each other, racing through 3 lanes to destroy minions, turrets, and eventually the base of the other team Minions are controlled by the AI You can play against other players or AI controlled "Champions" There are Currently 79 Champions that are released in game and every so often there is an additional champion that gets released up next is this sick looking [url=http://riot-web-static.s3.amazonaws.com/images/news/July_2011/2011_07_21_monkey_king_reveal/MonkeyKing_Splash_0.jpg]Monkey King[/url] who appears to be a Physical Tank Champions are what the user controls: Moving is done with the clicking of the mouse Same goes for attacking Unleashing Special attacks is performed with 'Q', 'W', 'E', and 'R' Each Champion has their own Specials Two players on a team can not pick the same champion You can buy in game items to power up for the remained of a round OR Buy out of game Runes to have power-ups for evers So Yeah, My friends turned me on to this game and honestly, I love it If you don't have an account, but want to give it a try, please use my reference link: [url=http://signup.leagueoflegends.com/?ref=4e2b7b3d62548468775711]Click Here[/url] [color="#8B0000"][b]So Basically, in this Thread Discuss this Awesome Game, talk stradegy, friend people who play and all that crazy shi[b][/b]ts[/b][/color][/center] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. Gray Man Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 LoL takes too much time in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenrir Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 ^That, and honestly the new champs they've been pumping out lack any creativity really. It's not the design, it's the skills. I guess it's the fact they can't make a skill similar to any of DotA's, but still. I played it from the Christmas after beta, all the way until the week before Rumble was released. And I played quite religiously with a team of 8+, so yeah. The developers are really nice people, but they NEED to be clear on when they're releasing stuff. God knows Magma Chamber was a letdown.

Boss Z Posted July 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 Yeah a year after release and still only 2 (can argue 3) stages is pretty bad... but hey, hopefully they'll listen to the people eventually Its summer right now, so for me, setting aside 45 minutes isn't too hard to do, though I do run somewhere between 2 - 7 frames a second on average Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flinsbon Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 I typically play every night. There's a bunch of people that I tend to play with. 3 I know irl. The rest I just know from online. I generally stick to the same set of characters when I play. They are... Xin Zhao Ashe (custom skin - Aqua from KH BBS) Miss Fortune (xmas skin) Tristana (guerrilla skin) Poppy Vayne Annie (frostfire skin) Veigar (custom skin - Vivi from FFIX and KHII) Galio Alistar Zilean Caitlyn (sheriff skin) Cho'gath Nunu (grungy skin) Taric I have found through experimentation that pretty much anyone else I try to use just does not work for me at all. So...my username is the same as on here and i'll play with anyone who wants to. Skiel, whats your username for LoL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

六兆年と一夜物語 Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 It does take quite a bit of time, and you should really be playing if you know you have an hour to spare.

Poc Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Monkey king looks like Win Nao V2. I was expecting a champ designed for jungling, instead we get another tanky melee bruiser. The last few champs they put out have been disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far the two characters I know I am "good" with are Anivia and Veigar... but I really wanna try those 3, if they are any good that is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenrir Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 [quote name='∞ Skiel ∞' timestamp='1311911259' post='5397641'] Galio [/quote] Used to be sooooo good. W into teamfight, R when everyone is mushed up, E or Q to pick up the stragglers. Quads/Pentas for all. With the AoE range nerf they gave champs a while back, he's pretty meh now. Granted, that's what I've been told. Haven't played LoL in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galio just got some buffs, I haven't played him since he was buffed but hes a fun champ. Nidalee is one of my favorite champs, you can do the stupidest s*** and get away scott free. Shes also one of the strongest champs in the ranked ladder because of her versatility. Singed is the ultimate troll champ. Its great fun tower diving someone 1v5 and killing them, then running away after while the whole enemy team chases you through your poison.

His price tag is too steep to just buy on impulse. I haven't played wukong yet, but the games i've been in with him i have seen some mixed results. It looks like he plays the exact same way as xin zhao with a little more utility. Custom skins are skins fans made, you can install them to your LoL with a bit of work digging through files.

I am just sadly more used to mages so it is taking a lot of getting used to... I also finally got Anivia and her Hextech Skin...

Poc Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 those are pretty standard build for those champs (except for wukong, if you dont build triforce or at least a sheen on a tanky dps champ your doing it wrong.) the frozen heart on anivia is a strange but viable choice though.
