League of Legends

To be fair, the majority of the champions in the game are still male (or, look like it...)(including the ones who are non-human that are definitely male. Cho'Gath and the like doesn't count).

I guess you have a point RE: Dr. Mudo, I always found playing against him a great pain in the ass in mid-late game myself, but maybe I'm just doing it wrong. And speaking of pains in the ass, I've unlocked my first champion, Twisted Fate, who's a bit tricky, what with the timing of his single-target spell, but he has good crowd control and a final skill that could be awesomely infuriating for the other team. Now all I need is practice. Practice and runes.

Dr. Mudo is one of my least favorite early game opponents because of the stupid throwing knives. He gets easier to deal with late game as people get more damage potential.

Also play League. I play nearly all the characters, but I usually play the burst dps/gankers. I look forward to playing with you all...maybe.

Guys, where the hell is Vladimir's dance routine taken from? I could swear I've seen it before, but I can't remember where!

I'm still pretty new to the game and working at getting better at a variety of champions. But I have gotten really good at Teemo.

I love Teemo. Mushrooms everywhere, hit-and-run with the poison and all that. I wouldn't say I was ever very good though.

I hate Teemo. Every time you try to walk anywhere you just get slowed by his mushrooms and ganked by their entire team.

The answer to Teemo is, of course, Vision Wards or Oracle's Elixir, or be a tank and build appropriate magic resistance. Still annoying, though. Very.

Teemo's job is, in a friend's words, to be an annoying little shit.

Can Lux's Lucent Singularity destroy mushrooms? Just curious.

If I remember correctly, mushrooms aren't affected by magic, or maybe I'm thinking of wards.

Nope, mushrooms can be destroyed by physical attacks only. As opposed to Shaco's jacks.

Friend introduced the game to me, really liking it. I was using Master Yi as a suicide-building destroyer until I could build enough points for Veigar, which I did.

played Veigar once. Maybe he's actually a good character, but I couldn't stand his voice.

Yeah all things aside his voice is just grating, he's a good AP Carry though, tried him out in a private practice match during last Free Week and liked him, just played through two matches with him and I did pretty good.

What!? I find his voice hilariously shrill! It helps his... "evilness".

Well you get used to it, and does anyone else play using Chinese portraits?

Besides Chinese people? I don't know anybody who does.

Does anyone play on the EU server? I'm there (just starting) and have a couple of friends who have this game figured out (read, 30lvl, some characters bought and over 400 wins).

'Fraid I'm on NA.

1.0.0.107 patch notes are up.

This is my reaction.

I too, saw the Patch Notes. And the ensuing ten miles of QQ and claims of Lo L being RUINED FOREVER!!!!!

I've never seen so much complaining...but I should be used to this by now, as complaining happens every patch.

Hey, c'mon, there's a lot of serious nerfing going on - no stackable Sunfires, Innervating locket being out, Pants having BOTH spear and heartseeker nerfed and generally making some characters useless. Oh, and Cassiopeia? Her Ultimate is pretty much useless, the rest requires too much skill to use and she's absurdly squishy.

They wanted to stop abusing sunfires, and rework Garen to what he was made. They've even acknowledge that they might have went too far, and are looking into it. Locket was just proving to be too unbalanced (OP on some, completely useless on others). They're going to rework it, and use the time without it to see how badly some champs need it (And probably fixing the champs so they aren't so dependent on it).

They may be on the way to fixing Urgot. Ez, Swain, and Nidalee got fixes and buffs. Panth doesn't seem all that nerfed, a bit scaled down. And the only character that's been said to be completely useless is Twitch. Which I don't believe because I was playing with one that got 14/3/5 or something like that.

I will admit, though, I'm not happy about the ward nerfs. I'll deal with it, though. And I've never played or seen any Casses, so I wouldn't know. Besides, it's only been a few days. Give people time to better understand how to use her.

Haven't played Cass either, but the changes are definitely a step in the right direction. As a personal fan of the stock two-handed sword human warrior (ain't I borin'?), it is saddening to see the changes hurting Garen immensely... but at since it's a step in the right, I can live with it (I don't play him much due to the whole, "SPAM SUNFIRES OR YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG" anyway... so gotta be patient some more). And Urgot is no longer entirely Furgotten, thankfully for his poor players. The nerfs to elixirs and wards were quite surprising, though.

Anyone like the Jo J at all? Just me?
