There is a lot to learn, but everyone is in the same boat. Games at low summoners level are full of people just as clueless as you are, which makes the games fun. You just need to practice a few champs, learn how to approximately build them and you can go from there.

In my experience, the community is quite good. I started playing PvP at level 7 (level 19 right now) and I encountered very few smurfs, almost no rage and one troll (on the other team).


SouthernDragon, nice OP!
Maybe I will give it a try later this week.

Try to save up IP when you hit lvl 13 or 15. You're going to need it for runes when you hit lvl 20.

My ranked Ranked 5s team just beat two 1800 players and one of them was Crs Liquid, who is on Curse Gaming, which is the #2 ranked team in NA. We were very proud, and it was mostly due to Rammus (me). It was honestly the best game I've ever played though.

He is if you can communicate with your teammates. There's nothing more frustrating than taunting a single person and having your entire team run away.

I feel like adding a NeoGAF - LoL handle section, but if people join the chat channel, that won't be necessary. Then again, it's handy knowing who's who.

And that's for the compliments, fellas. Mudkira did a lot of work, too!

Earlier this evening we made the decision to temporarily suspend CLG’s Saintvicious following a game where several Riot employees watched him intentionally troll another player on his team as that player was attempting to jungle. Saintvicious followed the player around for over 20 minutes stealing experience and gold from the player as he publically stated his that his intentions were malicious.

He was not banned for attempting new strategies, but for being a toxic force in an otherwise positive game – and in front of thousands of other players.


Edit: HotshotGG responded (trolled) to the incident

With 32m users worldwide, there are bound to be a few gaffers playing it.

EU could use this section. At least to see how many active players there are.

just started playing this a couple of months ago (just after the graves patch). its been my first real stab at a DOTA game and I'm loving it so far.

Tried a bunch of champs to start with (Cait, Morg, Kayle) but have been playing Rumble almost exclusively for the last month. Haven't looked back. At my level no-one else ever picks him and no-one knows anything about him. Nothing more satisfying then ulting from the bushes, running out with the flamethrower and watching 3 champs melt in front of you with no idea what is happening to them!

Riot said something about not adjusting champions based on performance in Dominion although that's an impressive score! People are complaining about her slow movement speed right now.

Maybe we can get a comment from Nome if he's still around.

In a few days I'd wager. Just getting new blood into the community is always nice. Already seeing quite a few new faces in channel.

Also glad I got Skarner. He's so ez mode, and absolutely beasts.

Yeah, I think I mentioned the anime (if that's what it was?) that Ahri's dance was from in the last thread. And Malzahar has the M. C. Hammer dance for instance.

How many normal wins do the lvl 30 people have in here? I have shamefully passed 500 recently, it feels like to many.

You dont CV the fountain simply to see the item of the jungler, but it's to see all their items. Knowing items are easy tells of retarded early game strats and helps people choose what to buy for their lane.

HSGG actually giving out tips on his stream for once (it's his tutorial day):
http://www.own3d.tv/live/13574/CLG_HotshotGG
He'll mostly be going through top lane champions and item building and counterpicking.

Someone did mention it in the last thread. Many people apparently missed it, so a repost doesn't hurt.
