Sorry if not allowed here (let me know), but I suck at this game and finally found a champ I get! Diana so good! Just super happy atm! I do have a question about boots for her however. I have been going mobility boots (mind you I am at LOWWWW elo) so I can roam like a boss. Is this a bad habit to get into or is it fine to help carry myself from the low levels?

Mobility Boots are fine, they are cheap and roaming is such a easy way to snowball for a 20 minute victory. You can sell them later too if you really need Mercs/Sorcs for some reason

The answer is, as with most build questions: "it depends". As long as you're making use of them to roam and get kills it's not a bad investment, but by no means should you auto-buy them. Sorcs and mercs are also good choices on Diana, depending on the other team and how you're doing. It's also a good idea to sell off mobility boots (usually for mercs) once the midgame is ending and everyone's temfighting, since roaming doesn't serve much purpose then.

Thats about where I turned it off. loool. If only i were high elo and could tell someone I was going to gank their lane. Such advanced skills right there.

So no big teams at DH Valencia? Why isn't it as big for League as it is for sc2?

IIRC DH doesn't get Riot money to run the LoL event, since they didn't agree to the exclusivity contracts that are in place for MLG/IPL/IEM. Naturally DH can't afford to run the event as well as Riot can.

I've been listening to it for a while now. Usually it doesn't really matter what they are saying, just need the background noise. But this... It seems like the longer I listen the worse it gets. So damn awkward. x_x

It'd be fine if there was some enthusiasm, but its just so monotonous.

after playing a lot of bot matches up to Lvl 14-15, I finally started playing Normal matches and then found out I need to be Lvl 30 to play Ranked matches

Lvl 30 is far off, but it's very apparent to me that I have a better feel for some heroes than others

my question is once I start playing ranked matches, should I have a set of heroes I'm comfortable with that can fulfill different roles?

for example, right now, I just play with the free heroes and wait to see what heroes my team picks then choose accordingly based on what role I think is lacking.

so if there is no ranged AD, I pick Miss Fortune. no ranged AP, Morgana. nothing tanky, Blitzcrank.

when starting to play ranked matches, is it better to be able to be diverse like above or play a specific role and stick with it to become better at that role and set of characters for that role?

Yeah the monotone voice and the kinda bland commentating puts you more to sleep. It's not really exciting conversation to be had, they really need to find better things to focus on. Like as I write this they're talking about driving through snow, about how one of them rarely does so. Doesn't make for very good tangent material on a stream about LoL. Tasteless and Super DMan went through an one and a half hour game and starting talking about monkey milk.

I'm a bit disappointed in Dig's showing, I really feel that even if online tournaments aren't the best gauge they should still have very strong showings. Though I guess this could apply to quite a few recent online tournaments for various teams.

You have the right idea. By the time you start playing ranked games you going to want to be able to play every role decently well. However, for now I'd just pick one champ you like and play them over and over because it reduces the burden of knowldge required to play well.

Firstly, you can't use free week champions in ranked anymore (unless you own them, too).

You should be able to play any role because it can always happen that you are forced into it. However, you can obviously become way better at your role when you play less different roles, because you then have much more experience with it. Most people specialize into one or two roles, and you tend to be able to get them pretty often, too. You don't need a too deep champion pool, usually 2-3 champions per role are enough. More are obviously better, but not really needed. I would suggest specializing in one role, having another role you are ok with (support is pretty good for this, because it is very easy to get in ranked), and just a rough idea about the other lanes.

You can become much better at one role then you can become at all five at once.

I'd disagree. You should concentrate on one role instead of trying to get decent at everything. Playing just one champ over and over is fine, but I personally find that gets boring. Try to find a role you like most and focus on learning 1-5 champs for that role.

You should learn another role in case you can't pick your main role in ranked. Learn support if you don't main it (otherwise learn jungle or something), because that is the one most likely left over and the least people play it. With one role+support you pretty much never have to play anything your are uncomfortable with anyway.
