[IEM] Kiev Discussion - Page 24

Prev 1 22 23 24 25 26 217 Next
At any point of IEM Kiev, if you think of an interesting byline, please drop a sentence in the Pro Scene thread. (e.g. "Day 2: M5 hype was everything people expected")

At the end of the month, I'll catalogue the results of Kiev but also any interesting facts or events that happen over the course of the tournament.

Thanks.

gold for each team, lane matchups. you dont know about the champs im guessing so its hard to analyze team comps. watch the jungler for each team and see when he ganks.

5v5, 3 lanes with AI controlled units that give gold when killed. the players are just controlling their hero. the goal is to destroy towers and finally the main building, the nexus.

LoL is basically unwatchable without a good enciclopedic knowledge of the game. If you play it a little bit though, it comes quite fast.

If you have never played LoL before, think of the game as a RTS/Tower defense. The objective is to march into your enemies base and destroy the main building.

Most helpful reply thanks :D learning the champs is just something that takes time? I hear about classes of characters can someone explain the general classes and roles or perhaps just link me to a good resource. Like what do they mean when they say AP mid or AD carry or w/e they are saying.

Pretty much XD I have free time this weekend and I've been getting really mad at myself in SC2 so i need something to take a break and I figure with the time I have this weekend I can learn some stuff if guided well.

For pro games the exciting part is the map objectives. Teams try to gain an advantage which lets them kill dragon which snowballs into a bigger lead into a baron kill which is a huge benefit. Jungle ganks and stealing buffs/killing champs with buffs are a big part. Often times a team fucks up and tries to dragon when they can't and get punished etc.

Also on basic comp, the bottom lane is the attack damage carry with a support who doesn't take any farm. Mid lane is the ability power carry, top lane is a mixed bruiser type and a jungler farms the neutrals and ganks lanes. You should be able to pick up from commentary/gameplay which is which.
Only the weak link is strong enough to break the chain.

Oh, 0K. Well, hi, long-haired guy. o/ I can't really listen to the commentary since I'm at work, so I wouldn't know Phreak isn't the one with the camera (always heard people talk about his awful timings with lanes whenever he's casting ^^').
