Some references in it are kind of outdated, but it looks like pretty good start to me.

3942

Any reason I am not seeing people play Annie? Due to lack of freeness, or has the metagame shifted away from her.

3943

She’s free this week, and still a powerful champ when played well and not focused.

3944

Yeah, I used to play her a lot, then got distracted by other stuff and realised I hadn’t seen her around lots.

Blitz as mid solo is the best ever. Hitting 6 earlier than on a duo-lane makes him such a better farmer and damage dealer. Also, he is probably one of the best gankers in the game due to his speed, pull, knock-up, and passive for tower diving.

Has to be mid, though. The close proximity of the towers makes easy and dangerous pulls.

3946

Isn’t any competent ranged carry going to completely outfarm you in mid?

3947

So are you dudes all pros now or are there QT3 games for casuals who maybe just downloaded the game yesterday and want to mess around without the pressure of omg srs bidness LoL time? I must warn you, however, that I may have some kind of natural LoL talent: I have won all five of my games against the bots. One time they were even on normal mode instead of easy. Take that, Garry Kasparov.

I’m mcathcart on Steam (I’m in the Qt3 group) and I’m Pastrami Reuben in LoL (I checked, every other name was already taken) so feel free to add me if you need target practice or something.

3948

Yes, just join in- you’ll learn a lot just playing - even poorly - with folks :)

3949

In fact now is a brilliant time to start, as Chequers also just picked up the game. A good few others in this thread only started in the last month or so, and besides that we aren’t a competitive group. We just play to have fun :)

Look forward to playing with you soon.

-edit- I can’t find you on Steam? Add me though.

Didn’t know you played hong?

3952

This isn’t a bioware thread hong, get out.

Elo hell doesn’t exist. It just doesn’t make any sense.

There might be streaks of losses but if all players are equally bad you should still win every second game on average in the long run.
If you don’t… well then you are above your Elo still, because if you really were so much better than all the other people in your own Elo hell you would be able to tip the balance in your team’s favour every now and again, winning more than 50% of games on average, increasing your rating.

It doesn’t matter how retarded your team is or how many AFK people you got. Unless you think the matchmaking is biased against you the other side has just as many morons and leavers in the long run.

3954

What i have noticed is that generally i win like 7-10 games in a row, and then lose another 7-10 games in a row :p

3955

That sure does annoy you alot.

3956

:( :( :(

3957

You know what has to be the most annoying thing about this game. When you are in mid doing rather well, not winning your lane by a large amount but definitely quite comfortable.

Then you realize that the rest of your team is just failing horribly… And you end up losing the game because the other 4 members of the team > you.

3958

I know what you mean, man. It sucks being so great at this game. Which I am. Great, I mean. I am great at this game.

3959

Cue the qq:

I was playing Teemo mid yesterday (nobody else wanted to, I don’t hog mid). I killed Annie twice before level 6, then killed the jungler that came to gank me.

I like either cleanse/ghost (when I play runaway teemo) or cleanse/exhaust (for aggressive play.) Got a question thought. Akali is my nemesis. I can’t kill her. What are her weaknesses?! She seems like a bursty spell caster with stealth.

Obviously she is weak at getting focused by the entire enemy team.
