Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

    So, I know it's fun to spectate and all, but last week we had 30 players and 3-4 streamers; this week we had 20 players and 289274892374 streamers. I decided to play (and Schuss wound up playing too) so that we could fill up a 4th team and not have one team twiddling their thumbs at any given moment all night long.

    I don't mind playing instead of doing that which I was very looking forward to doing, but I do respectfully request that those of you who streamed this week please consider playing instead next week. I honestly don't want to sound like a silly complaining goose but there ya go.

    Other than that, I had fun and I learned I need to buy and practice more Yordles.

    guys, how do I enter the Yi zone?

    I've tried wriggles, zerker greaves, zeal, zeal, zeal, but it seems... lacking. How do I actually kill people, instead of just running really fast and backdooring turrets.

    Umm, don't stack zeals and build an IE then a PD? Wait until the battle is well underway while all their CC is on cooldown, then charge in like some crazed lunatic on speed, blow someone up quick, then chain your ultimate and Wuju Style so you do a bajillion damages.

    hmm, I'll try that. I've been following the pro-as-heck guide, and maybe I shouldn't have.

    Huge props to everyone who played tonight - a lot of fun was had!

    Also major thanks to the casters, I really enjoyed your befuddlement at my taric build.

  • zerg rushzerg rush Registered User regular
    I was hoping it had a kernel of truth.

    Also I was on my ranked alt and everybody there thought it was a legitimate good build.

    It is. It's super-pro, and if you don't follow it, you're a nooblord.

    But yeah, it's basically a troll video.

    I lost track of who was commentating.
    I know that besides Enigma (listed above), Delphin/Delphinidaes also streamed some matches.
    I'd do some legwork to let you know what match was at what time in their stream, but it's saying I need to watch some 'commercial', yet all I get is a loading circle, and no commercial. So, I can't watch any of the streams, apparently. :\

    Detailed spreadsheet of how awesome my team was:

    Really, they made the magic happen. I was just riding coattails to the finish line. Amazing games, everybody. LOTS of close ones, imo. Like, at any given team fight, if we had lost 1 person, we'd have been missing tons of something valuable in the rest of the team fight.

    Having participated in the painhouses for the first time, I'd like to report it is an enjoyable experience!

    The main reason I'd recommend joining in is that it provides an opportunity to learn and improve how you play. (if that's a priority for you)
    I went back and watched the casts of tonight's games and even in the one where I performed well the ability to see what was going on everywhere and how my actions related to it was particularly enlightening (though this may be because I was jungling) and revealed so many missed opportunities and missteps.

    I figure that getting a feel for the general progression of a match will be rather useful in the future.

    It didn't help that I have probably played a handful of games with anyone that ended up on our team and was supporting someone who had no mic but I took the games in stride. Not sure how I arbitrarily became captain and no one told me about it.

    Sorry, I assumed everyone would know!

    I missed the painhouse :( At least I did it while learning that my laptop cannot, in fact, run League in a satisfactory manner.

    Thanks to anyone who voted for my friend's shield in the Dark Souls 2 contest! He made it in to the top 30, so he's got a chance to be chosen!

    Well, to be fair, you logged into the chat channel, and that was your first mistake. Your second was trusting Hargaad.
    Your last was thinking this was the end.

    So in case anyone is like me and had previously leveled up 10 alt accounts to 5 just to get the IP boosts and the 975 RP: Converting to the new Recruit-a-friend basically gets you an instant 2500 ip. Those previously leveled-to-5 accounts count again towards the current rewards, where you get 250 ip for each one. It's quite nice.

    Man, Orianna's Q still needs a buff of some kind. Increasing range per level, or a faster projectile speed. Either of them would be nice.

    The mana cost decrease was helpful, but she still goes out of mana incredibly quickly. I'm guessing Athene's Grail will help with that.
