    I edited the thread title to reflect the content. I thought you were going to say something funny or unrelated or something.

    LoL stands for league of legends if thats what his previous title had in it. Anywho, I play but not very frequently, and not for a while either... but My summoner ID is Captn Oblivious if you want to test your luck and see if I ever get on.

    If anyone still plays this add me. (Tag is AidsBabies).

    If you don't have League of Legends and are looking for a new game to play in your downtime, then I highly recommend it. It's a 3rd person action game where you take on a champion of your own and together with your team battle other champions.

    It's pretty much a clone of DOTA, but if you've never played that before then it will be a whole new experience. There are over 70 champions to choose from, which offers a vast range of playstyles.

    If you're having trouble picking one you like, then feel free to check out some of the champion spotlights made by Riot Games.

    If you're an intermdiate player and don't know about mobafire yet, then start browsing. It allows you to find a ton of content about your favorite champion and ways to use them to best effect.

    If you're interested in trying it out, please do. I would love to play with new people. More variety of players means more dynamic matches, which btw matchmaking tends to be very quick. So, if you wanna try it please help me out using this referral link to sign up - http://signup.leagueoflegends.com/?ref=4e4f16d68aa89743236066.

    As for me, I play with Singed. He's a lot fun to run around and annoy people.

    I play, though I haven't done a whole lot of normals yet. I'd only feel comfortable playing against low level people for now.

    That's fine, I'm only a level 11. I haven't played any ranked matches yet. If you want to play against bots, that's fine too. There are some champs I haven't tried out that I wouldn't feel comfortable taking into normal matchmaking.

    Ranked is overrated, I haven't played ranked and I'm level 30.

    Haven't played since they added Rumble but if your serious about playing sometime just partnering up for a few games or a FH party of 5 or something (not right now I'm going to sleep) I wouldn't mind getting back into it.

    My mains are Mordekaiser and Blitzcrank if that matters lol.

    Because when I play games like this, I would rather learn all of the champions and mechanics before starting the multiplayer element. I ended up leveling too high on it to use for normals.
    I do the same thing in games like Halo; I'll play the campaign first partially to avoid spoilers and such, but also to get a feel for the weapons and abilities in the process.

    Didn't even know this thread was made.

    League is an amazing game, and Rusty described it pretty darn well.
    I've got a bot account just like Chrono, because I leveled too far with it from just bots (I'm level 20 on it) that I didn't want to go into normal games cause of it.

    If you wanna mess around in a Normal or some bots, add me:
    Gr4phix

    My main account just got to level 7, since I made it a few days ago.
    If you want to add me:
    CODENAME VEGAS

    Right now I'm maining as Tryndamere (HE'S SO MUCH FUN) and I actually do pretty well as him. I just got Jax (Pre-Nerf Jax R.I.P) and am hoping to get good with him.

    I learn as I go, besides you can learn all their is to know about a champion, but not the other player. That's the true test.

    I've won many a game not through individual skill (I have a lot to learn) but through teamwork and coordination. In fact a lot of times our team is down early and all looks lost, but with a positive attitude you can come from behind. I have had many an epic game where we're losing the majority of the game, but come back. One game even went for 75 minutes. That's a really long time to play, but it was so intense. So, I'd recommend matchmaking, but it's fine to take the game at your own pace. Bots just get really repetitive and predictable, so I prefer the dynamics of other players.

    I really don't mind losing as long as I learn something from it. So far I've learned not to underestimate the power of minions. Gold farming is a must as it levels you up and gets you the gear needed to survive. Kills are nice, but taking out towers is far more advantageous. Always be on your guard and don't spam all your abilities at once when laning. That way you can save something that can potentially save you. Focus on the damage dealers first or harass their supports and ranged if you can.

    I've found that singed can be a really clutch character surviving with minimal hp, but pulling off some insane moves. A lot of times I'll initiate even when low because singed is so much faster than everyone else.

    I'll be sure to add both accounts, although I'd prefer to play normals. Again losing isn't the biggest pain in my day and I like the challenge of better opponents. It means I have to get creative in strategy and teamwork.

    Tyndamere is really beast late game. Super hard to kill at times and deals a ton of damage. I just run away from him while giving him a dose of poison.

    Jax is pretty badass too. I haven't really played with a carry champ yet. I played with kog'maw against lower level opponents, but that's about it.

    I am saving up for Twitch though after watching this...

    I like this attitude, I use to have games go over 2hours on a regular basis because I refuse to lose lol.(they lessened the game time by buffing minions and nerfing towers since then so idk about now) But I've had many games where all my towers down and nexus has been attacked and we have still won.

    Best tip I can think off is learn every character in the game and everything it can and can't do. (and by extension knowing what the enemy is planning)

    I know how to play, I'm just not interested in playing high level people right now.
    Also, I would advise against Twitch. In fact, start saving up for a good level 3 rune set instead of buying champs.

    I don't even buy champions anymore since I have all the ones that I can actually play half decent already. Saving up for runes is a much better thing to do, unless you KNOW you like the hero and can earn that amount of IP back with it.
