Wahay. I love LoL.

Well, not at the moment as Pirate's really, really UP right now, but once he gets buffed I love LoL!.

Right now I'm playing Ezreal and Nasus. However Pirate's my main.


NitroN7 is my In game name,.
I play Terran for the music.

My favorite part of Wrawra/redtooth is that he is never sarcastic in his posts.

It's probably better than being really sarcastic towards teammates who cause you to lose a game without ever really teamfighting.

Actually Pantheon is incredibly annoying to Fiddle. His jumpy-stun outranges anything Fiddle has. The only way to avoid getting hit by the full combo (and Panth's burst is usually enough to kill Fiddle) is to target him with fear when you see him coming -- the fear will be cast in mid-air, causing it take affect post-stun, preventing jav/heartseeker/autoattack from being used afterward. Because his jump is so fast, however, you have to do this before he starts it, and as soon as you target it Fiddle will start walking toward him, which is usually not what you want.

Now Yi, on the other hand, is basically a non-entity for Fiddle unless he has merc treads.

For me it's kind of like...

When I play Jax there is ALWAYS a Trist on the other team (which really fucks you up late-game).
When I play Twitch there is ALWAYS a Jax on the other team and that makes you @#$@#$ing rage.

But that game there was a Jax Shen Ez, which isn't even really rare. But it was like *unstealth* HI GUYS *3 guys jump at me and instadead* BYE GUYS!

When I play Pantheon, there are ALWAYS much better heroes on the other team (which really fucks you up at like, 20 minutes).

Jesus Christ, Pantheon is fucking terrible without spells and you're talking about how he's good vs. Fiddle? the fuck are you smoking? do you not get points in dark wind? cause seriously, you just bounce crows around and Pantheon is worthless. Yes, it's a counter solomid early game, but that's Pantheon vs. anyone other than Kat or Karthus for ya. In teamfights, Fiddle fucking rapes Pantheon sideways. You don't counter the jump with fear, you counter it with crow, cause his fucking heartseeker still goes off and goes on cool down, but it doesn't do any damage. Silence vs. Heartseeker is pretty much the most demoralizing thing in the game. And hey, they both work anyway, so you can still just make him useless most of the time with dark wind and if you fuck up horrendously, you still win by fearing him. CC vs. Pantheon is a goddamn nightmare.

Hah, I played a game earlier against
Nidalee/Shen(jungle)/Ezreal/Ashe/Soraka
We lost in 25:06 and it didn't even feel like we were doing anything wrong, we just couldn't stop that shit. It just... ended.

Edit:
Probably what frustrates me the most right now is that... I try really hard not to mind people playing "underpowered" heroes, or heroes that are "different" (ie. Gangplank, AP Yi) that don't necessarily suck or anything.

But it's INCREDIBLY difficult lining up a proper setup, and figuring out tactics etc. when running abnormal stuff.

Like, I'm sure AP Yi is quite strong. Hotshot loves it, evidently. But you have to run a build AROUND AP Yi because he has such shitty synergy with most heroes. Like you need a crapton of disables and burst nukers so that when he uses Alpha, you can keep the enemies in the area, while nuking one down so HL resets CD, etc. So you end up needing shit like Amumu and Veigar (lol!) with their massive AoE snares for it to really work. Because AP Yi doesn't do anything except kill heroes, and not even particularly well at that (he's just really hard to kill himself).

But it's really obvious when a team sets up a real team, like WW Shen Ashe Ez Soraka, because they just steamroll you 5v5 right up in ~25 minutes, because as much as mobility has been buffed, a strong team will still roll your face by forcing a teamfight and kicking your ass. It's still the strongest strat.

Beyond that most of my frustration the past few days has come from the fact that I've been finding it bizarrely easier to set up teamfights and team pushes while solo queue than when premading with people I've been playing with for weeks. It's mind-boggling and really annoying.

It's like Starcraft in terms of time devotion. It's a bit longer on average (5v5 map tends to go 25-40 minutes, while the 3v3 map is a bit shorter), but aside from the duration of games most of the time-sucking will come from the playing of the game over and over again.

In terms of skill curve it's much different, though - you become reasonably competent fairly quickly (much faster if you get in on TL premades :D). Attaining basic competency with a character or two (i.e. learning their skills, combos, synergy, item builds, playstyle...) is fairly simple. Of course, this varies from character to character - it's why you see a lot of Ashe, Tristana, Annie, and (at lower levels) Yi. They're pretty easy to play well. Of course, there's still a lot of space for being AMAZING... I once played with and against Shurelia on Annie and she was consistently able to beat down people 1v2 because she knew just what she could get away with.

THEN you have to learn how the character interacts with the others - who he lanes well with/against, who to watch out for, when you can towerdive, when you have to go back to heal, and so on. These are the people who you watch and are amazed by as they turn around and burst someone down from half health or kite someone around, wearing them down until they have to run.

THEN you have to learn how to be a team player. That's the hardest one, especially since you have to sort-of-relearn it if you play with different people. These are the pros, the people who win games. You hear Southlight talking about "messing up calls" or making bad decisions occasionally, and this is that. This is metagame, this is decision-making, this is map awareness, this is knowing where to be and when. Support heroes are mostly about learning this, IMO.

uhg, yea, I dunno what was up last night but we didn't seem to be on the same page at all. Maybe I was just fucking tired cause it was 5 in the morning, but damn, I felt like our team chemistry was really bad last night.

It's been the case for the past few days, I dunno. We lost a game where Chibi was like fucking 10-0-10 at one point, it was really, really frustrating.

Yea, I hate games like that. I remember a game I played with my scrubby friends where I opened 13-0-7 with Pantheon, and we just got completely rolled around the 25 minute mark. They kept saying "let our amumu tank" and I kept being like, "I have a lot moar HP, a lot moar Armor, and a lot moar Magic Resist than our amumu, he's just dying before we can get into fights because he's so underleveled and underfarmed and he has a fucking philosopher's stone instead of a useful item." Uhg, I was so pissed.

AP Yi is very strong imho. Dunno about team comps that would work with him, but he has some pretty devastating tools on his own. Good escape mechanism, pushes towers really fast(with highlander), really strong burst, can also chase He is really a pain in the ass because you can't burst him down if he gets Zhonya. He is quite vunerable to disables and stuns like any hero. I'm not sure how to play him yet, but he might just be the next OP like HotshotGG said.

I refuse to believe AP Yi is OP lol. I'm still yet to see a good one I guess, but something about his skillset just doesn't leave me shaking in my boots about AP builds.

Hehe... well he is probably not OP, but he is still pretty good. You should try him out just for giggles.
