That's how Koreans play the game. because we're not playing WoW? where it's used most and its not even remotely similar in league? i guess unless its talking about describing moving lanes, which is okay i guess. have seen several people post rotations to describe spell use here though and it erks me | ||

What I've seen is, for example if you start blue buff, and you contest at their red buff immediately after your buff. So the enemy jungler who did the small camp in between is worse off than you because they did small camp; but still at level 2 with you. It's pretty fucking cheezy, but you'd be surprised how well it works. Also, another thing you can do is grab level 2 off both buffs, gank or pressure a lane, use lane xp to get to 3. I like to do one buff, walk through mid lane and "gank" and then do second buff, usually get level 3 from xp leeched. | ||

Anything outside of topnotch competitive play, it's pretty silly to expect anyone to be able to do that. You use to start seeing it in low plat, though YMMV. Not consistently, but that improves as you go up. It's a mechanical skill that isn't that hard to do with Leona's telegraphing. If you see a W or her E animation, double tap Q. Biggest issue for Janna is if Leona lands her ulti for initiate on Janna. | ||

What gets really scary is when Leona learns to use Ctrl+3 to bait everyone into using their interrupts. | ||

I too come from a WoW background, but it doesn't annoy me all that much. LoL doesn't really have rotations as much as combo's. While you're trying to be efficient, you aren't trying to maximize DPCT or DPS as much as stuff like CC uptime or burst. It's not like playing WoW where you have to follow the stack debuffx2>haunt>corruption>CoA>UA>(drainsoul if under 20%)>shadowbolt without clipping dots or god forbid letting NMIC corruption drop. | ||
