So, anyone playing League of Legends?

[Grunker]

I FUCKING LOVE EU EAST! <3

I log on at 12PM yesterday, no queue. I play 10 matches with my mates, go do other stuff.

At 7PM I log on again (no cue, UNHEARD OFF!) and play some more. I've been playing for the last week, no queue, not a single time, not even a couple of minutes.

Fuck the russian-speech (me and my mates chat in danish anyway), as I mostly play with my pals. Server split fucking rocks

 

[Phage]

So used to US servers where there are very rarely queues, and 90% of my games are solely english speakers.

 

[Berekän]

Played with Jax yesterday and it felt almost like cheating, I had connection issues at first which made me die some times and loss a lot of exp/gold from minions but I ended dominating the game anyway.

 

[Markman]

Jax is awesome if noone has exhaust or they dont focus you first. Hes fast, hits hard and eats squishies in a sec.
Reason I started maining Malphite was cause of Jax,Yi and Tryndamere. His AS reduction with Randuins omen puts those dudes to a halt. Nasus' Wither is also a nice counter.

New servers are fucking sweet, no lag, no queues and it finds me a match under a minute. I aint moving. Non english is kept to a minimal atleast in ranked games, for normal i dont mind, people troll there anyway 90% of the time. Yesterday i had Twisted fate in my team going 0/17/12. He didnt give a shit, why should I?

 

[Grunker]

Jax is another example of someone who has been gimped into hell by nerfs. Sadly, he is not the powerhouse he once was. He can feel really powerful if you lane against someone who doesn't know how to play against him, but if you play against someone who does you'll find him one of the worst champions in League atm. Sadly.

He's great fun to play though.

 

[DakaSha]

strangely jax has never ever scared me.

Btw im starting to REALLY hate solo queue to the point of not even wanting to play anymore. I have a friend i play with but fuck i need 3 more. How n gods name am I supposed to find 3 more friends

 

[Ulminati]

Drag some friends in from elsewhere. Be patient with them and play a bunch o fmatches. Eventually they'll be good enough that you can play competitively without ragers on your team.

Then RIOT splits the servers and forces you to play with polacks instead. GG.

 

[Grunker]

Just make sure you choose your friends wisely. For example, Ulm is pretty good at this game (much better than me at keeping focus in a normal game, I mostly only bring my A-game to ranked games), so I like to play with him. Trouble is, he complains whines too damned much

 

[Ulminati]

I don't whine. I'm just very bad at not remarking when a teammate does something stupid.

Such as informing me I should play a carry and then proceeding to use their abilities to steal every last hit in lane.

If I play with teammates that don't make idiotic mistakes (like trying to steal enemy blue when all 5 are MIA), I don't complain :D

See there? Whine

 

[Ulminati]

Psh, whining would have been if I remarked on how exceedingly poorly our Brand fared mid. Which I should like to point out I didn't

 

[DakaSha]

I play on NA servers so even if they do split someday it will be master race and spics.
I have 'met' some people online and added them to my friendslist but fuck i really cant imagine how awkward it would be to teamspeak with some random dude off the internet xD

The thing is that at first it sucked due to people raging at me being a newb.. now its INCREDIBLY hard for me not to rage the whole game at the retarded shit some of my random teammates pull.. Like deciding that a blue buff must be acquired while our turret is being gangraped, or killing minions right next to a fight (where one or two autoattacks would have meant the death of an enemy)

I dont really care about people sucking.. im def still not 'good'. But some people seriously seem to have a negative IQ. When i was pulling this stupid shit i was level 1-10. These fags are all around 25-30

The worst is that i seem to have a leaver in about 1/3 of my games. Or some fag who think s that feeding the enemy team is high comedy

edit: lol having said that ive lost like every one of my last 7 games xD I am blaming my teammates though (unless im playing a char i know im terrible with.. then i really fucking suck bad. im prob only truly good with about 3)

 

[Berekän]

As long as you aren't one of those that whine constantly and keep spamming 'OMG NOOB TEAM' while doing nothing to try to help the team it's okay to rage at stupid shit they do. I find it far more annoying when they can't shut the fuck up than when someone has a bad game and makes some mistakes (though that might be because I'm of the latter )

 

[Ulminati]

I actually met a ton of people on NA back when EU was run by GOA. Got on vent with several of them to play. they were pretty chill BROs. The trick is to get on public vent servers with them so you don't have to share your skype details with dodgy people.

I agree with this. In fact when im in a good mood (and have a decent score of course) i try to keep moral up with a bunch of pep talk and as retarded as it sounds it actually works. You get the 2/10 bro all hyped and he feels secure in his newbness and it has led to wins.
Usually I rage when im laning with some idiot who dies.. then blames me (cause i didnt sacrifice myself WITH him) then calls me a newb for his idiocy. And i cant help but point out every mistake he makes form then on (Tf's standing around watching gay porn, Tf killing minions next to teamfight, Tf running away, Tf gettign buffs he can just hand over to the enemy etc)

On that note: There is nothing worse then a fag who thinks hes hardcore by getting buffs the whole game.. only to die every time he gets them (handing them over to the enemy of course)

 

[Markman]

I cant counter Akali. Of about 80 champs in the game this bitch is hardest to counter. If she snowballs a bit early theres no stopping her. From 4-0 she'll go to 20-0 in a matter of minutes. I was thinking getting Oracles just cause of that cloud so the bitch cant hide. And each one builds the same, Rylais-guardian angel-hextech gunblade, tanky, lots of hp and damage burst over the fucking top. If she had one type of damage like most champs I could counterbuild early to shut her down, but only counter it seems is fucking up her early game so shes hopefully a few levels down when the big fights start.

 

[Ulminati]

Markman -- I'm an Akali player. A pretty decent one too. I can tell you what fucks me up.

1) The enemy team sticking together. What Akali excels at is killing the idiot who went alone somewhere

2) Oracles on the tank. In a teamfight, I rely on my shroud to dart in and out of combat and damage squishies. As soon as someone has oracles it leads to:

3) Focus fire. Even with rylais, Akali is extremely squishy. One on one, it's migitated somewhat by spell vamp. But if I get focused in a teamfight, I die. I have no fancy CC and my escape move is hardcountered by oracles.

4) Magic resistence and HP. Nearly all of my damage is magic damage until I finish Lich Bane. But that's usually not until the 30-40 minute mark.

5-10) Crowd Control. You wanna fuck me up in lane? Make me lane against something like Swain. I try to get my combo off, he snares me, throws in a laz0r bird and ults to heal back up while I receive even more pain.

11) Being unable to close to melee. Usually because of a snare. If someone has any form of hard CC, hits me with it and has informed his teammates to focus me, I will not be able to do anything. I have nightmares about Maokai with oracles and a fed tristana.

12) Laning against something I can't burst down. A good Mordekaiser, Mundo, Swain or Irelia forces me to farm instead of ganking. Bonus points if they can push hard enough that I can't leave my lane long enough to gank elsewhere. It won't shut me down, but it'll delay the point where I start ROFLPWNING everything by a good 10-15 minutes. That should be time enough for you to get beefy and buy oracles.

13) All-AoE teams. Doesn't matter that I'm invisible in my shroud if AoE shit flies everywhere in a teamfight. I'll probably get burned down before I can do signifigant damage unless I wait until after the teamfight is over to pick off stragglers. So if your team can win a 5v4 teamfight, you're golden.

14) All tanky DPS. If I can't burst it down in a dash, a crescent slash and 2-3 marks of the assassin, chances are it can kill me if it doesn't turn and run.

 

[Markman]

Early Oracles and tank up a bit with a clear focus on Akali. Could work, but it needs a team with a clue cause shes pretty much unbeatable 1 on 1.

What's your summoner name?

 

[Ulminati]

That's the point of assassins Markman.

Singed is a pretty good anti-akali laner. If she tries anything, fling and poison her. She'll have to b long before you do

 

[Markman]

FINALLY! Even score on ranked. Duo-q ftw!
161W-161L 1177 elo. Im so pro :D

Same as here. Ignore my current record.. its a streak

 

[Ulminati]

So I gave EU Potato another chance yesterday.

First game: Ranked. I duo queue with a danish mate. He plays singed, I end up playing soraka. Our Kog'Maw and our Malz are apparently premade. At least they both insist on speaking russian constantly. Only a competent Norweigan playing jungle trynd saves us, as Malz loses mid 8 minutes in to a brand and Kog'Maw hasn't reached 50CS by the time the enemy MF breaks 100.

Second game: ranked. I got two croatians and two polacks on my team. They were 2 duo queues. Lot's of z's and c's in chat. I /ignored all and carried them with Vayne. Bu the time the other team surrendered, I had twice the creepscore of mid and top, I was th eonly one who had pushed any towers and the only person on my team who bought wards.

Third game: Normal. I end up having to jungle irelia because amumu has a change of heart and switches to twitch with 10 seconds left in champ select. Turns out they're a 4-man polish premade. Our Malz steals blue buff while I'm doing it, then twitch stops by and steals red buff. The entire team complains loudly that I don't gank after losing a full level worth of xp and both buffs.

Fourth game: Normal. I premake with a danish mate. He picks jungle fiddle, I grab akali. the rest of the team picks leona, ashe and sona. Since it looks good, we lock. Then leona switches to amumu and demands jungle and ashe switches to malzahar. Needless to say, the enemy team stacks negatron cloaks.

Fifth game: Normal. Having had enough of slavic filth, I premake with a dane, a swede and two norweigans. Things go decently for about 10 minutes, after which the server apparently suffers a seizure. Everyone on both teams complain about pings in the 300-400 range. Sadly, we have a composition with 3 skillshot champs, so we're utterly devestated in teamfights.

Sixth game: World of Tanks. I premake with 3 danish mates. I play a StuG III, one plays a PzKpfw IV, another has a Grille SPG and the last drives a Leopard. People still speak slavic crap in team chat, but at least the game is less dependant on people communicating outside pinging the map.

Back to waiting on server transfers.

[Edit]

Seventh game: ranked. Premake with a danish friend. He goes jungle Udyr, I end up as Vayne on a last pick. Our Malphite and Taric are croatian, and took grave offense when they spoke their moonspeak in team chat and annie asked them to stop speaking polish. 5 minutes into the game, Malphite DCs. Taric informs the team that Malphite won't be coming back (no further reason given), so he'll go AFK in base. We hold out for 28 minutes in a 3v5.

Apparently LoL gets a new game mode - capture & hold - soon™

Honestly, I'd rather have a new map for normal play. But I must admit, it looks interesting.
