Hello everyone!

I was thinking about warding quite a lot lately, so today I would like to present my findings. Hopefully you can find this useful, or suggest better options.

I will describe lane by lane, from the position of a blue team. Ofc this works for purple team as well, just revert it in your mind's eye :)

This post is about warding during the laning phase.

TOP LANE

• 1. I like to put the ward over there. Like this you can see, if enemy jungler goes for river bush or purple tribush. I see plenty of people putting the ward into the river bush, but I think that is a waste of LOS (line-of-sight), and if you are shoving the lane or go for the tower, usually when you see enemy standing in that bush, it's too late cause he is in your back. Also everybody is sweeping that bush permanently so make them think you don't ward at all.
• 2. Since the recent ward changes, if I'm pushed under the tower (or jsut farming there), I always put purple ward in that bush, as it stays there until de

Wow

Yeah this has been around in GD forums for a while, but I only recently noticed.

This guy intentionally feeds, dies 100+ times, is practically as useful as an afk... and won.

Just... what. I seriously hope he's banned by now but this just makes me want to level a smurf and intentionally tank my MMR down to Bronze V just to see what it's like. I can imagine it's like a whole fkin other world down there.

Ok this is my first post and "rant" because I've got a problem to get off my chest. As most of you recall LoL has the LeaverBuster system which indescriminantly bans players who leave games frequently, normally regular games. Now my question is why does Co-Op vs AI count as a normal game, I was told by many of my friends in League that if you leave Co-Op vs AI that it would not count to your LeaverLevel. Were my friends wrong in saying this or is there a bug in the so called "perfect" system. I'm only saying this because I got banned for a few days after leavig (crashing in) a Co-Op vs AI game when I left a few more times prior to that unfortunate event. Now I call upon you people to clear thigs up for me and give me the knowledge to attempt to prevent such problems in the future. Hope to see you all in the Fields of Justice.

I shall be climbing out of Silver 2 with my bot lane support ZerkSam. We will be playing Lucian and Leona bot lane. I plan to be streaming almost every day. Even if no one watches it ;_;

But, for anyone that cares, link my stream is here, you'd be my bestest friend if you followed.

Anyways, I've been wondering, how has Season 4 been treating people, I know a lot of people have been lowered to lower tiers, I've seen golds and platinums in silver. My placement games helped me since I won 8/10 and moved from Silver 4 to Silver 3. How is your season 4 doing?

I gotta hand it to the guys on the first post. Some of it was edgy (to me) but I'm certain it was all in good spirits. I guess I'll just start using these as an update on my journey to Ranked matches and to the ultimate goal of being 'The Real Deal'.
This one's out to you Banana Man. Wherever you are.

I updated my guide to better reflect what I'm seeing out there, and that's I don't understand the hype about Flash, but I use it anyways. Oh no, don't get me wrong, I can definitely see how 2 less deaths is crucial in the matches that matter, since most of those are won before 20 kills is even reached, but from a Normal, Free-Pick perspective the training to be had is lessened by the fact that it's easier to escape people still experimenting without it. Nevertheless, I use it now in place of Exhaust.

Speaking of spells, someone remarked about my using of Teleport on Annie. Is that abnormal? I have no clue since I don't play either Annie or mid.

And speaking of mid..! I am || <- that cl…

Why is it that Challenger guides written by pro guests automatically get 100%? It's kind of aggravating when you work on your guide almost daily every week to ensure that it's in top shape only to have a challenger guide get posted and rated higher than yours. I guess it wouldn't bother me so much if these guides were actually updates for the current season.

This is entertaining, in a masochistic way: blogs on a LoL-dedicated site. BWAHAHAH! Seriously!? What is this, My_Space™? Maybe a forums group of some sort but... blogs? (Ugh, I hate that word. So cacophonous.)

I guess this is my first one here. Might as well try to "reach out to the community." Don't know if I want to do that here, since I've already had a negative experience, and I just joined. (Makes me wonder if all that blasphemy about LoL community being horrible not blasphemous.)

Pretty basic stuff here. I guess I'll stick to the game for now.

I play (nearly solely) Soraka as an AP-focused support who averages 30.1 assists per game* as of this writing on normal-free pick matches and just under 20 in Normal Draft-Pick. Since I give no more {cares} than 0 about elo (whatever that means/is/used for/named for) I'll try out some solo-match-up Ranked when I get to 30. I decided to put out a guide in commemoration of my steady string of 26-37 assist games and it was scoffed at. Hi…

If there was a certain way of beating every champion, that would be so easy for all of us. But unfortunately, some players still do not understand, that this game is much more complex and it takes more to win a single game just to dominate your lane opponent. This takes me to my recent game where I played Lee Sin in the jungle. Right after our picks, I was 90% sure that if we do not win this game in a 20 minute mark, we never will. And I was right. Our picks looked like this:

top lane: Heimerdinger vs. Yorick
jungle: Lee Sin vs. Vi
mid lane: Nidalee vs. Yasuo
marksman: Twitch vs. Jinx
support: Thresh vs. Annie

Right there you can see that our team comp is all about poke and ranged harrass. So even when we were winning 10/1 and it looked really good for us, we lost it eventually. There are many reasons why. Yasuo got fed on top lane ganks, Heimerdinger was not able to make an impact in team fights, I should have gone for more defensive build even when I was 5/0 in 8 minutes and many mo…

I'm not sure if I'll use this idea. I'd like to share it first and see what you guys think about it.

So, would you guys be interested if I stared doing certain types of blog posts in certain days? For example, a blog post about animes every Monday and then a blog post about League every Wednesday. This is just a suggestion though. I don't know what types of blog posts I could add.

The reason for this idea is I don't want to post random blogs all the time. If I'm gonna post on this blog properly I think I should use this idea. What do you guys think?

Oh and right now it's 6:45 AM in the morning where I live. I didn't get any sleep :/ and I had to get up very early today cause I had to study for a little bit. I'm probably the only person who studies in the morning instead of doing it during the day like a normal person xD

DON'T BE LIKE ME!

Thanks for reading xD

P.S - Don't worry. I'll get some sleep at school! #420BlazeIt Eyyy~! =D

It funny being at a boarding school and being one of few Americans playing LOL. I was playing and one Korean kid saw me and just laughed. It wasn't mean or anything he was joking around. Then he kept poking fun and I brought up the Olympics. He said previous to this Americans stink at LOL, (which is somewhat true)but I had to stick up for my country and be AMERICAN! Anyway, he kept going about that, then I interrupted him and made fun of the fact how Korea is going to get their ***es whopped in the Olympics by U.S.A! He just left my room silent XD.
