There are times when it's useful to ward there, notably when you're lane isn't super pushed and you're dealing with a jungler who is trying to babysit a lane. Otherwise you'll end up having to sit with thumb up ass waiting for a CV (which your team might not even have) to determine if he's hiding in the river bush or has left. This applies to top lane much more significantly than bottom, though. The spot marked is a pretty shitty spot to ward, either way. If you're blue team you're better off with ward on dragon and your wraith area. If you're purple team you want bottom tri-bush and that one of the bushes covering the bottom river next to mid. The only reason you put a ward where that picture marked is to be cheap and try and only use one ward, but it'll screw you a lot. | ||

I get the impression our tl kat king plays her as a poker who doesn't all in as hard as akali/talon/poppy etc Kat is a cleanup champion. Let your team 4v5 and get the opponents all low (because no one focus fires), shunpo in and collect pentakill | ||

I am better at Moba but only because I played longer in Dota and other stuff. LoL could possibly lead into playing competitive Dota 2 as well when it comes out. (NOTE: I am not asking what game you enjoy more or think is better that is flame bait. I just want to know what you think is easier to break into at an amateur level) | ||

That said, if you have a partner that has the same motivation, you can duo queue and probably go for league. | ||

She doesn't have the overpowered burst of the typical assassin who can instagib a carry or support, but that's only because she has to channel her ult. She can clean up a fight just as hard as Akali thanks to her passive. You end up having to play her as more of a poke champ that fights off to the side or hangs back until the fight has gone on long enough for CC to be down so you can get at least some ult damage out before being cc'd. | ||

[-]scarra[S] 47 points 21 hours ago She's too strong and synergizes too well with items such as gunblade. She's got a resource system that never actually depletes, which is always a major problem. Shen has a problem that he can never keep his energy. If Shen had akali's energy returns, he'd be retarded. So pretty much uh... decrease base damage of Q by 5 Make R cost 10 energy Make spell vamp % scale worse, up to about 37% with gunblade. Re: Expect talon nerfs? [–]scarra[S] 12 points 21 hours ago Yes. Mana cost nerfs on W and CDR nerf on his ult is what i'm expecting. Re: Remove any one champ from game [–]scarra[S] 38 points 21 hours ago yorick probably Re: Best AD in game [–]scarra[S] 3 points 20 hours ago cait/kog Re: Most OP champ? no idea prob something like zil I agree with most of what he said. I expect base damage nerfs to Talon's W. | ||

Well, this is my opinion on the matter: Starcraft 2 should be easier to get to that level, simply because you can focus your practice easier. It doesn't require you to have 4/9 other people online to train with, you can get by with just one, or you can mass games to improve just general mechanics and such, in which case you don't even need a dedicated opponent. Moreover, SC2 has replays available, being able to review the game you completed for mistakes or to see EXACTLY what your opponent did is invaluable. | ||

The hardest part about getting competitive in Lol is that you need to find 4 other people who you mesh well together with and can play for 6-12 hours a day. At this rate I dont think it would be a good idea to invest a ton of time into LoL though because who knows where the game will be as soon as Dota 2 comes out, wheras sc2 doesnt really have any other competition on the horizon, there just arent really any developers that are working on serious competitive RTS games. | ||

They are part of the scene but not getting paid to play so I consider them amateur. | ||

I don't know if typing the champion name in question in the search box persist between games, but even if it doesn't, you should be able to memorise the position on the grid easily  Unless you have all champs and want to pick one of the lower-located ones vs someone that doesn't have all of them.On October 14 2011 12:26 Defury wrote: They are part of the scene but not getting paid to play so I consider them amateur. I'd much rather use the term semi-pro then, but that's just semantics at this point ^_~ | ||
