Champions vs. Lessons

[quote=B-Wong]Alright so we all started this game and we were like "hey, this game is pretty damn cool!". Now some of us are level 30 with 500+ wins and I just wanted to ask you to take a step back and reflect: What champions did I play to get to where I am now and what lesson did each champion teach me? I'll start off. I started off with Corki cause I got him free from an even a looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong time ago, he taught me very well how to position myself and how to skill shoot (which, if I may add, are easy as hell). While playing Corki, I also played Alistar and learned initiation and mana preservation. Also skill timing and learned when to get the fuck out. From them, I moved onto Annie which strained a bit more importance on initiation and getting out, but I also learned to build for survivability cause it helps much more than going straight damage in the later stages of the game. After that I essentially branched out to all of the characters because from those 3 characters alone, I learned almost everything that I needed to be successful with other characters, whether I have or haven't played them before. Oh, and Amumu for basic jungling but I just learned to not overreact if I have low HP from jungling. You?[/quote]

[quote=Diesel]Master Yi was my first champion, he taught me that running into every battle face first and not prepping for a fight is not the smartest idea in the world. Then I picked up Ashe, and won 70% of 300 games.[/quote]

[quote=DEWO]My 1st champs were Veigar - learned lasthitting and mechanics by playing this champ Alistar - learned CC and teamplay on him Shaco - learned how to lasthit KS Yi - learned how to carry and push lanes/towers that accualy gave me win after win after win while ppl were focused more on PvP.[/quote]

[quote=Vaan99]Master Yi- learned that i can win 1v5 simply by destroying their turrets, which happened quite often and they couldn't counter him Evelynn- learned that i can fail with some champions (i was playing lane without any knowledge of eve) Warwick-learned how to jungle, and now i simply can't get out of it, i jungle with every jungleable (funny word ^^) champ Tryn and jungle Eve- learned how it's funny to win games and kill everyone Pantheon- learned how it's funny to be OP[/quote]

[quote=PotatisFarfar]Pudge: Learnd me the basics of skillshoting, and how rewarding it is. Admiral proudmore: Learnd me how to gank and inniate teamfights. Obsidian destroyer: learnd me how to carry, and how to carry as a ranged. Chen: Learnd Micromaneing units.(btw why doesn't LoL have commander heroes?) jungleing. and support role ohh wait this is lol... well with kinda good Moba experience i did not really learn anything new... But 1st hero i learnd to play was Cho'gath. and he is still my personal favorite ^^ NomNomNom[/quote]

[quote=Freki]Hum in Lol the first real guy I learned was Garen, and it was how to faceroll the opposite team... Sad but true. Otherwise same as potatis, I played enough dota and hon to run smoothly in lol For your interest potatis, no chen like hero for the simple reason you can t unselect your char.[/quote]

[quote=SixSonatas]Uh, for Chen-like hero they could easily make new keybindings for each minion controlled :P I think it might be too big of a game-changer with super-minions though, in DotA at least ALL of the creeps became super-creeps so that taking control of some won't change the tide of the battle drastically like taking control of super-minions will.[/quote]

[quote=nand]I started off with Ryze. Lessons learned: How the game works Then I bought Tristana. Lessons learned: How to win Then that's it for about 500 games. Then I started playing veigar. Lessons learned: How to nuke. Now I'm playing Lux. Lessons learned: How to support[/quote]
