League of Legends

Isn't that all of them?

Well, most champs have at least one skill containing a slow or stun, true. But I rather mean a champ focused on cc. Leona is all about stunning and locking up your targets. Caitlyn has a trap and a slow, but they are not completely reliable (it's rather easy to walk around her trap) and you want your Caitlyn to focus on doing damage and not trapping your enemies.

That being said, a few weeks ago Nunu and Galio were freetoplay, and those two ultis are a combination you can hardly do anything against XD Lost all games when I had those two in the enemy team.

Wow such versatile champion design, Morello is doing a good job.

 

[Alienfish]

Yeah, on ARAM practically all long-ranged poke champs are OP... Evelynn can do good there, if you can land your ulti well and just follow them with Hate Spikes, as long as they don't turn around XD
But I think games go best with a normal teamcompo, as in a tank, an ADcarry and a (favorably) long ranged AP champ at least. And champs with cc like stuns, pulls and snares. Love Leona in that game mode as long as my team is willing to follow me.

Yeah, but she is still kinda useless unless you play her as tank/supp there XD I love how good I was with Amumu though, haven't played him in years.

And nice rotation this week, finally got to try Vi

Nami is coming out with a new skin. so excited c:

 

[KarlaKGB]

Isn't Nami a character from Harvest Moon? riot pls

 

[Melyora]

Owh owh new Nami skin? O_O I might gonna get it for my sister then, I have the Koi Nami skin and I totally love that.

But this freetoplay champion roster... I mostly play ARAM with friends, and I am so not looking forward to the Nidalee, Zilean and Lux enemies... Talk about poke and annoyance. I do have Lux and Nidalee and playing it myself is like amazing, but I know how it feels to be the enemy team XD
I will try out Sivir and Vayne, I need to enlarge my adc pool (momentarily existing of Ashe and Caitlyn XD)

DOTA2 is superior. I'm not even joking anymore.

-rolls eyes-

Can we stop trying to trashtalk both the games. I spent time, and to some extent real money on the game because I wanted to. Also about my name change, the old was really bad and I have wanted to change it for a while. Also runes aren't exactly "expensive" if you play regularly. I like both games, be it I'm more on LoL because I have made more progress there and somewhat prefer it right now.

That said, anyone into ranked on EUW? Could use some good players rather than noob teams

The rewards system is one of the big selling points of League, especially in Korea where they like their MMOs. Being able to unlock champions, runes, masteries etc... gives you a greater sense of accomplishment. My own opinion though, is if you need the reward incentive to play the game, then there's something wrong with the game. The unlocking champions thing works for League because there isn't that much diversity between champs, so it's perfectly viable to only main one or two heroes of each "class".

Anyway, I find across dota-like games, solo ranked is the true test of your ability to play the game.

 

[Alienfish]

I agree with that. And for the 'rewards' in LoL I mainly see it as I can get better each time I play and somewhat try out the champion whenever they are on rotation, or I bought them to find out my style. The few skins I have I bought because I wanted to, not to be some "elite", and two of them I got 'free' when they gave out RP ages ago.

For diversity, you are right, most of them has some slow/snare/stun and the real difference is mostly if they are more tank or adc/apc or such.

For ranked, I agree, but then it's all who you play with.

I've been dying. My computer charger blew up and I'm waiting for a replacement. Haven't played League in a week and I'm dying. I missed the rugged garen sale and I've been wanting that skin since I started playing. I don't even like garen. I just really like that skin. Idk, I'm mad about it.

 

[Alienfish]

holy sht, im sorry O:

i know the feels, there are some skins i like but the champs wtf haha

 

[kittenrobotarmy]

I think I may have played a little too much League, I have a habit of skipping like Annie and saying 'Don't make me hurt you!'.
