Interview with TSM's Jungler, TheOddOne


So, many people are asking...why don't you stream?

One day I probably should but currently I play LoL on a laptop and it's FPS gets destroyed by intensive stuff like that and my upload here in western canada are fairly garbage since the internet plans suck and I'm on a shared connection with 2-3 computers.

That said, I don't get the interest you guys have in [...]

Hello everyone, I'm Dyrus from Epikgamer. (As you probably already know)

I will start blogging and releasing a guide every Tuesday. So to start this blog off, I will talk about how important basics are to all players, starting with zoning.

I will not be releasing guides on Heroes that I do not know how to play, which means sometimes a guide may not be released every tuesday, which is why I have a week to figure out what I know and squeeze out what knowledge I have for the greater good for you assholes.

Warning I am not responsible for any IQ lost by [...]

Finished Tutorial!

I hosted my segment of the Team Solomid's Giving Back to the Community event this weekend. I spent nearly three hours going over support and its numerous attributes. I covered the list of items in my last blog post and I had a lot of fun giving commentary on the two games that I played. As a reminder, my tutorial doesn't teach people how to play, but rather only serves as an informational way for players to improve their support prowess. I do not people to think that what I showcased is the only way or even the best way to support as it is always [...]

Lately, I've been working really hard and now I finally have some time to practice lol for our upcoming tournament.Starting tomorrow, we'll be practicing 6~8 hours a day to prepare for the IEM event at Gamescom. We'll be leaving to Gamescom on August 14th ~ August 22nd. For the people that will be at Gamescom, show your TSM SUPPORT, we'll be bringing a few Team SoloMid Shirts to give away for the dedicated fans! If you're a fan, please come and take pictures with us, we would love to have this posted up on our site as well. While in Germany, I'll try my best to [...]

Hello Solomidians!

As some of you have realized, Epik Gamer has been slightly (and I said slighty) inactive since Doublelift, former EG member, left the team. This event may have sounded like a bad thing, but in the end it was for the greater good. It gave us an opportunity to have a dedicated support player on the team which was what we needed. We have begun to pick up our game and really have worked to accomplish many things since going to Dreamhack.

I'll be flying out to San Francisco and I will be staying there from the 8th to the 16th of August and Salce [...]

Safety

Warning: I will be talking about Teemo and Pantheon, one hero that I have played through countless buff and nerf cycles, and one hero that I do not want to see go through the same buff and nerf cycles.

Given riots track record when he gets buffs hell be an abomination of overpowered, imbalanced rape train."
-Clorler898 in a league of legends forum post describing the future of Pantheon.

"The flaw is that the charge mechanism enables sections of the map to be quickly shroomed, providing too much safety for map objectives and tower [...]

Hey guys, Westrice here again. Today I decided to break down a few things about a majority of top tier champions (champions that you see most often) into categories. Champions that you hardly ever see in games will not be listed. Sorry Rammus ok. Categories consisting of team synergy like Kite teams, Bruiser teams, Initiate heavy teams, and even teams consisting of all. Say, Ashe would fit into the Kite and Initiate teams while Jarvan would fit in the Bruiser and Initiate teams. There are many champions in the league, and each and every champion creates some sort of synergy with other [...]

Running a wierd build that isn't considered the norm may yeild positive results here and there, but overall you will be hurting your team more than helping it. A wierd build does not consist of going black cleaver instead of bloodthirster, or frozen heart instead of sunfire. I am talking people that build champions outside of what they are meant for and end up doing well a few games, but will ultimately fail in the long run and when matched up against a higher skillset of players. Building side lane Orianna as an AP carry will take all game long to complete, and by the time you will be [...]
