Starting now I am going to try to play at least 1 game with every champion in normals (I would do it in ranked, but people there are too pissy, don't feel like dealing with 12 year old rage). Should I do this in normals blind or normals draft? I started this a long time ago. Every time there's free week champions I haven't played, I try them out. I got 100% win rates on some champs I don't even own. It also gives you a better feel for the champs cds, passives, and play styles, so you don't run into suprises when the champ shows up on the other side of the battle. Personally I play blind pick for faster queues, and you don't have to wait for picks and bans, so you get into game faster, but draft normals are fun too. | ||

Should I do this in normals blind or normals draft? I've been doing this ever since I started playing LOL this past September. I think it helps you learn everything really well. Theres some small things that you just don't learn without playing the champ. The most annoying thing is that theres some champs that are very rarely free  Even though I started at the end of august/beginning of september, theres still about 8 champions I haven't played.As for blind vs draft. I personally like blind because the games feel more laid back. The only problem with blind is people's rediculous comps. It's also a lot of people doing this same thing (trying out things). Blind is also slightly faster queue, especially when playing with friends. If you don't care about winning and losing, blind is fine. If you want teammates that give more effort into winning, I'd do draft. | ||

What ap carry do you play that can't push out a wave in two seconds flat? If you're losing lane that hard then the blue will help you come back. Don't make junglers wait. Check the timer for blue buff if you need to so the lane isn't pushing to tower. | ||

OMG NOOB GET OUT OF MY LANE OMG 9 REPOTS FUCK OFF MY MINIONS OMG WAT ARE YOU DOING?!?!?! Yeah, I'd rather ping the blue 15times while doing it and tell them to come, and if they don't come it's their fault, than trying to shove the lane and get whined at. | ||

Even after succesfull ganks where a solo laner end up on ~100 hp & mana and you stay to shove the lane to opposing tower you get a shitton of rage. | ||

How dare I save his tower. At least he accidentally wrote it on allchat and this way 9 people were laughing at him. | ||

My favorite is when they yell at you that they need someone to cover their lane, then when you finally get your ass up from golems all the way to top, they stay in lane with 200hp csing like you're a bodyguard or something. | ||

It may not seem like a big deal since no one pocketed 300 gold off of you, but in the end you still cost yourself and your team significantly.

Don't make junglers wait. Check the timer for blue buff if you need to so the lane isn't pushing to tower. For the blue that comes at ~7:15 it's not uncommon for mid to have been forced to expend significant mana to stay on even ground with their opponent. In that case quickly pushing the lane can require expending all remaining mana, meaning they'll have nothing left for blue. It's awkward but it happens. Later in the game you don't have that excuse. | ||

I've had three Ashe's disconnect after given first blood to the enemy team, two Shens that refused to use their ults to save me, and my teams have never called MIA despite my reminding them over and over to do so. I'm losing all motivation to play this game, and I only have six levels left to go. | ||
