Back to shop

Ok. So. You pushed a lane back, and you blue pill back to shop. What do you buy?

Depending on the hero, you are going to want to buy ad, ap, boots, etc. But then what? Like, say you have 200g left over, do you buy 2 wards and a health pot? Sometimes yes, sometimes no.

Knowing what to buy on your character is important because if you spend too much money on trivial things like wards as a carry you will gimp your time in the long run. Wards are effective, but carries should only ward their lanes to allow themselves to farm safely. [...]

Raising your elo is something a lot of players have trouble with. For some it may be easy because they understand it while others may not. For me i have a few guidelines i always fallow that usually lead to a win. Ill list them all below and give a reason. Good luck in season 2!

Be a leader. This is one of the most important rules to winning solo Q and even more so premades. Being someone who knows when to call a push, baron, dragon, ect. will extermly increase your chances of winning. People need someone to guide them through the match. A good leader will also have the [...]

Hey guys I am back from Dreamhack.

Just gotta say that the event was awesome. Tons of variety for any type of gamer, whether it be shooters, strategy, or moba. Pretty sure I even saw a WoW raid on one of the grandscreens.

Overall, the event was really cool to be a part of. There were tons of people there, and tons more watching the event from their homes. The max viewership was triple the previous record for views on a game stream, and this makes me really happy for what this means for the future of League of Legends.

So we lost.... Would have been [...]

The Rain Man's Solo Queue Tier List

These tiers are for laning purposes ONLY, and do not include junglers. This list is completely subject to change, and I would like to hear your comments on what you think about certain heroes being at certain tiers and why. This is just an outline, and I will be changing the list in the next few days as I get the time.

Tier 1: OP Flavor of the month heroes who are firstpicked/firstbanned. These heroes are gamechanging, and have the ability to carry a team on their back: Twisted Fate, Eve, Vlad, Jarvan, Vayne, Alistar, [...]

Since apparently people care what I think (or so I've been told) and everyone loves being told what to pick I've written a quick tier list for competitive/tourney worthy junglers. Keep in mind, this factors in how valuable that champion is in the jungle spot ALL game, not just at clearing the jungle. This means that despite Master Yi having a nice jungle route, I personally think his sole purpose later will be to feed the enemy team or backdoor towers as in competitive play people tend to focus dangerous targets rather than in solo queue where everything is apparently invisible to [...]

Competitive League of Legends - a phrase that did not exist a year ago. Dreamhack will be the accumulation of the work and determination of the best teams in each part of the world and the emerging team will undeniably be the best League of Legends team in the world.

There is no team that does not want that title, there is no team that has not dreamed about it and there is certainly no team that will not give their very best. These next few days will be exciting for both players and spectators as the best collide and showcase their skill.

As the number one North American [...]

In League of Legends there are things that will get your team ahead, known as "Objectives". These can be as small as neutral minions and buffs, and lead up to kills, Dragons, Towers, Barons, Inhibitors, and finally, the Nexus. When looking at objectives to determine how important they are and what tier they should be placed on, one must also consider the risk levels involved against the rewards. Also to be considered is what objectives will allow you to complete other objectives, and how many people are needed for each objective.

Tier 1 is the Nexus. This is the [...]

I think that League of Legends has a lot to look forward to when Season 2 rolls around. Something that I would like to see implemented is UI Customization.

I would like to see maximum camera distance improved. There is absolutely no reason that the maximum camera distance is so small, and allowing people to increase it would not have a negative impact on the game whatsoever. All I see the maximum camera distance as at the moment is a limitation.

More customizable user interface. For one, the portraits on the left side of the screen are completely buggy and almost [...]
