yea the servers are pretty fucked up. even in normal games there are massive lag spikes. youd think with the 100k tournament, they could afford to buy more fucking server capacity. ridiculous.

Queued some 3v3 with some peoples. If you haven't tried it already its pretty interesting. It limits the champs you should play and how much gold you get, but in exchange it feels a bit more like teamwork/ganks to keep track of the buffs/dragon/enemy champs.

If you are frustrated with soloqq then give 3v3 a spin. (NOTE: DO NOT QUEUE 3v3 if you have first win of the day up. It penalizes you 22%. SR gives the best returns for winning)

You do realize that more servers doesnt necessarily mean less lag. The groundwork coding for LoL wasn't meant to scale with so many concurrent users are they currently have.

As an analogy, getting more controllers for a game that's 1 player won't turn it into a multiplayer game.

That is gold right there. I found that extremely funny for some reason.

So I've been playing Annie recently. Been doing qweqqr then r>q>w>e, and for items i've been doing sapphire+2 health pots to start, then boots 1 -> rod -> finish either merc treads or sorc shoes. then i go void into zhonya's. does that look about right?

Hmm sapphire first in lane can be trouble if you get harassed early, sometimes I go dorans ring just in case (like I see a particularly nasty lane combo I might come up against). I don't think void staff is really worth it unless they're hardcore stacking mres so I think you should get a zhonyas first (it also add survivability)

I personally go soulstealer -> whatever boots I need -> zhonyas if raping/banshees if getting focused/abyssal if I need mres but am not really getting focused that hard

do w->q it scales better
at level 5 w, u can one hit mage creeps with just the ap from doran's ring, one shot the entire wraith camp, so on so forth. helps a lot for farming/ ganking people in one hit.

I know that league mastery thread is old, but is there some truth to it still? Are they working on more masteries and/or going to raise the level cap?

edit

oh ok, according to this page:
http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=51991&page=28

There are new masteries coming. but does this mean an increased summoner level cap, or will they just phase some old masteries out, or just add them, or what?
it's my first day

That actually not true anymore. The FWD bonus is now a flat 150 IP, previously it doubled your winnings.
The -22% is actually for the static gains like no-leave-bonus and Time modifications. On average SR and TT will give the same IP over Time, with TT being probably a bit faster if no one refuses surrendervotes. On TT you can "decide" the game much earlier, even relative to SR because junglecontrol is very vital. The nerf to the Grez reward reduced that a little however.

I like Q over W early game anyway. With CD runes, a level 6 Flash/Tibbers stun/Ignite/Incinerate/Disintegrate combo usually gives you enough time to fire another Incinerate at them before they get out of range. You also don't have enough AP to make use of the "better scaling" of W at that point anyway.

i think some people take first point of w first so they can spam in the fountain for stun right away.

oh the AP scaling is the same, both .6 for both spells. Just the per level scaling w>q

I prefer maxing W over Q as well. More damage, more farming, better lane control, etc etc.

you really shouldnt try to rely on this to net your kill, most of the time they have flash and you wont be in range. better to get your max dmg in one sweep and follow it up with ignite before they have a chance at escaping.

Only purpose of this is if you're planning to have a level 1 team fight from the get go. Typically to counter a jungler from getting golem as it spawns.

this doesnt work because u have to wait too long. its good to charge ur w if u have a lane partner with a stun projectile, so you get attempt for first blood, but people these days usually have hp quints and dorans so its never going to work , and if they dont u can always get them at level 2. So henceforth i never open w.

What?

You're talking about laning. I'm talking about ganking a jungler at level 1. If you're laning, you'd never get W first.

takes too long to charge ur stun to gather at their blue buff, imo.
