    Attention Penny-Arcade League of Legenders! De Hombre los Moos, and I are hosting a contest!

    What kind of contest you ask? Well, simply put, it’s a League of Legends Fan-Art contests!

    “But Spaceman! I cannot draw, for I am a talent less jellyfish!”

    Have no fear! As Mooman and I are both pretty horrible artists ourselves, there will be multiple judging categories to determine the overall winner.

    What I want from you guys, is to draw me something funny, and pertaining to league of legends. Is that so difficult? Exactly, I didn’t think so.

    But how will we judge you ask? Well, there will be three parts of every drawing we will consider:

    1)Originality

    2)Hilarity

    3)Presentation

    Presentation will, of course, be the criteria with the lowest weight on victory, but, sorry, you can’t just draw a scribble and win.

    “So what do we win?”

    I’m glad you asked! There are 2 prizes, sorry, only 2 people can win because I’m not rich:

    1st place: First place will receive $20 in RP, and a PAX Jax skin code!

    2nd place: 2nd place will receive $10 in RP and a PAX Jax skin!

    3rd place: 3rd place gets nothing, be a better person.


    “I’m interested! But what are the rules? I don’t want to be disqualified”

    I’m even happier that you asked this, the rules are very important, because I’m a power-hungry sociopath:

    1)You must draw your own entry.

    2)Your entry MUST pertain to league of legends,
    2a) It cannot pertain to the league of legends penny-arcade people.

    3)This is a supplment to 2a: NO INSULTING ANYONE EITHER WORKING FOR RIOT OR WHO POSTS ON OUR FORUMS, OR WHO PLAYS WITH US.

    4)You can draw a single picture, or up to a 4-panel comic. Anything greater that 4-panels and my attention span disappears.

    5)NO you tube video entries, sorry.

    6) ALL ENTRIES MUST BE FORUMS APPROPRIATE! NO porno, nothing too obscene, sorry, I don’t want to see Teemo-Kennen slash.

    7) All entries MUST BE MADE by 04/23/2011 and the winners will be announced on 04/24/2011.
    Anyone can enter, except myself, and Mooman. Also, I need to hunt down a place nearby that sells RP cards.

    Please submit your art directly to me, at my personal email, bjbo510@gmail.com with the title FANART CONTEST! I ask that you include your art, and your forum name.

    I've been trying a new blitz build recently. The idea is having overdrive up all the time and knocking everything around during teamfights, and making use of the free attack speed from it by adding lots of AD.

    I get to 10% CDR between my runes and masteries. Skill order is Q, E, then R > W > E > Q. I start with a meki pendant, turn it into a tear, get boots, get CDR boots, get glacial shroud, and I now have max CDR. From there I make a manamune, sheen, triforce, then finally I upgrade glacial shroud into frozen heart and fill the remaining 2 slots with AD items like infinity edge and sometimes bloodrazor if they have high health dudes.

    Can I do this better or more efficiently though? Like getting 5% less CDR from runes and masteries so the extra 5% on frozen heart isn't wasted, or getting a different combination of CDR items like shurelia's instead of glacial shroud, although I would miss the armor and the extra mana beefing up blitz's mana shield. On the other hand shurelia's ability would be hilarious on a constantly overdriving blitzcrank too...

    or wait I could get ghostblade, shurelia's and some other type of boots for maximum activated movespeed fun!

    Well, first off: you mention 12,000 gold worth of items before you even get into attack damage. In general it's a good idea to plan a build around ~8,000 gold and include some defensive/offensive options for games that go longer. With that build you'd barely start the Trinity Force before most games ended.

    What it comes down to for me, though, is that AD Blitz is pretty gimmicky. You're not playing to his strengths at all (feeding his teammates, never dying ever) and you can't really get any damage beyond a Sheen and a Manamune without severely gimping Blitz's tankiness/manastackingness. I would build him something like this, maybe with a Black Cleaver or Youmuu's as your final item if the enemy team isn't putting up much of a fight.

    Hold out for Rumble if you want to be a damage-dealing robot!

    I like this game a lot but it's hard to go away and come back. They add so many champions and items have changed quite a bit since I was "into it". I feel like I have to relearn the game every few months.

    Another thing is that I am a huge fan of the 3v3 map and despise the 5v5 map, thus opposite of everyone I know, so I can't get friends to play with me.

    I roll with Warwick, Blitz, Nasus, and Katarina.
