    Say, could Morde be the best late-game champion in LoL? Everytime there's a (mostly horrible) Morde in a team, and the game drags out really long, the team with Morde in it ends up winning, with him carrying the game.

    AP Poppy, Tryndamere, Veigar, Nasus, possibly Anivia are, I would say, all much stronger maxed.

    For a super-dragged game, I'm not sure what I want my final items on Morde to be. Stacking spell vamp/AP on him makes his ult especially hilarious, but getting the right balance of defense items so that I don't get exploded instantly (assuming an enemy team that isn't all AD or all AP) while still doing loltastic damage seems tough.

    if I remember right, my build for him was like

    sorc shoes
    sunfire and force of nature, getting regen pendants first then building whichever suits your lane opponent
    the other of those 2
    rhylai's
    abyssal scepter
    wota/hourglass/whatever

    things rarely drag on for me to get the last item, but that's the only time where I feel the important shit is covered and I can get some spell vamp or something

    It's the main reason, but LoL is designed to get new people into it. Gameplay is lot more forgiving for people who are new, the 'leveling account' mechanic gives new players a drive to keep playing and improving, and also keeps people of appropriate skill matched together so that newbies aren't being demolished.

    Game did a great job attracting new players to play DotA-style games. Too bad everyone who plays LoL harbors some baseless hatred of DotA/HoN.

    i like HoN, but LoL is a little less infuriating for me to play.

    i'm not good enough at HoN to make up for the horrible item builds i see, but in LoL, i can pull a little more weight.

    Yes, but the US will now be owned by RiotGames, and we'll have an Office of Zileas instead of president.

    In LoL I find that unless you play a solo, you don't impact the game at all. No matter how well a side-laner or jungler does, if your solos suck you lose the game.

    well, in LoL, at the low level that i play at, even in a side lane, i usually have close to, or the, highest farm.

    unless it's double melee vs ashe/sona or something lame like that.

    Not 100% true. Last PA game I played I went 15-6 or so. I was a side lane duo. You can still impact the game. They actually improved things a bit when they made a few changes to the way exp works solo vs duo.

    God, that part of Dota was one of the big reasons why I stopped playing it.

    Not being able to win a 5v1 fight was the epitome of unfun.

    Why are people bitching about new Champs every 2 weeks? I think its great, it shakes up the meta and keeps stuff fresh consistently. You guys complaining about balance need to wait for season 2. I'm sure what they are gonna do is lock in 40-50 champs as the only ones available for ranked for that season, that way people can't complain about new champs in competitive play. Meanwhile they can release new champs for everyone else to play, and the cream of that crop will show up in Season 3, and so on.

    I'd really love a new map as well, but the people making champs arent the people making maps. They have also been pretty abysmal with releasing new features. I think those are more than valid complaints.


    Never happen, selling champs and skins is their money-maker. My only expectation for S2 is that they will up the ban count. My hope is they finally implement all those damn features from forever ago.

    It will happens, it's been confirmed that it will happen by Morello even. Ranked play will have a non changing set of champs for each season. Say they have 200 champs, 40-50 will be available for use per ranked season. This way they can establish, create, and adjust metagames for ranked.

    Of course they will never cancel making new heroes, they just wont be available for use in ranked until they are adopted at a start of a new season. I'm sure normal games will always have everything available.

    That's actually completely incorrect. You can allow the game to be about that, but early aggression from a side lane with jungle support totally destroys enemy teams, particularly since most jungles (tanks aside) scale very well with gear.

    A jungler needs help to get the kills, but a fed WW can not only kill their solo consistently, but can do pretty much any 1v2 and up to 1v5 depending on team comp / timing. I've pentakilled slightly less skilled teams who all thought, in a row, "Well, now he's at 30% HP, he cannot beat me with both my summoners up!" In fact, I can.
