Showoff :)

Is it possible to play games 5 v 5 from your friendslist?
Could be good practice.

1902

I’m not too sure what you mean? As in a custom game where you know everyone on each side? Yea, we’ve done a fair few of those.

1903

Yup, that’s exactly what I meant, so you can pick and choose opponents.
Seems ideal practice to have your regular team and then some wildcards against you.

1904

Is there a Qt3 Guild or whatever to join, or is it all just friends list?

I started playing on a lark a couple of days ago and am surprisingly hooked. I hate RTSs and am usually disappointed by action PVP, but I am really enjoying the pace and flow of the game.

Of course, I’ve only played vs bots so far, so I expect exposure to other people will make a big difference.

Any Qt3 people on nights Pacific time that can help handhold a newbie who likes to play Heimerdinger?

1905

Wait, you mean you’ll get to 30 next week?

HaHaHaHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!

Kevin: i think there is a LoL group in Steam. There are no ‘guilds’ ingame, if that’s what you mean, just friends lists. Also, i think the US people have a mumble/vent/ts server that you can join and setup games.

1906

That long then ? Dammit, I gained 2 levels after 5 games so I thought it would be quicker.

1907

Those first few levels are really fast. It slows down a lot once you get past the first 10-15 levels.

1908

Depends on how many games you play each day but since the XP needed for each level keeps rising with, well, each level … that means you need to do more games to get to the next level.

Also …

Assuming an average XP gain to be about 110 XP per game, one can reach summoner level 30 within 365 normal games. XP boosts will increase this amount while custom games and beginner Co-op vs. AI games played past level 9 will reduce this amount. There is also a daily cap on how much you can gain in custom games and Co-op games

1909

Ah, thanks for that, so I’ll see you next month-ish, unless that xp and ip boost Riot promised kicks in soon.

1910

Just an IP boost, they never grant XP ones ;)

And once you hit 20 you should come play with us.

1911

They have granted RP and not IP on occasion though and you can use that to buy an XP boost.

1912

Which is why I said they never grant XP boosts…

1913

He’s got a bit of a curve because you need to learn to juggle his stances just right but he can be fun. I was almost impossible to escape from in that game with my 520+ move speed, red buff and Tri-Force slow.

With Tiger stance and a green pot I hit the 2.5 attack speed cap which is pretty darn hilarious.

1914

Anyone else try the new Kog’Maw? He seems so much better now, vastly easier to keep the enemy harassed with Arcane Barrage now that it lasts for 14 seconds.

1915

Yeah I played one game with him and he felt really good. I was shredding the enemy team up.

Of course I still ran into the same problem where if not protected I got my shit packed in, but for those 5 seconds I was alive I did some serious deeps!

1917

You jungle him? Apparently Stonewall thinks that Phoenix is still faster than Tiger for jungling. Also that lane Udyr is also really good. I guess I should get back into Udyr before he gets nerfed.

Also I looked at Elementz site for the first time in a while and apparently Twisted Fate is the best Solo Queue character in the game now? When did that happen?

1918

So there was a patch sometime this afternoon, but no patch notes.

I thought it might be Leona, but no dice.

1919

That sounds kind of superawesome. Maybe it will be out by season 3!

1920

are you looking his super old guide or something.

tiger changed a lot, it doesn’t do 3 hits anymore, it leave a massive dot on target for 2 seconds, it’s on a crazy AD scale.

tiger jungling is so fast if you take blue at lvl 1, you clear your jungle at 5:30 or so and ready to gank with double buff with full health.

Udyr right now is pretty much unbeatable in jungle even vs a Warwick.

Also wriggle is better than Blood razor even in late game, takes way too long to get health back after a fight without wriggle, since udyr’s turtle stance work off wriggle’s proc, you can recoup health at a very fast speed with wriggle. I went razor one game last night, realized I probably have done better just buy an AD item or something like Black cleaver or BT.
