After browsing both YouTube and Google for a while I thought I should do this.
As the general community of LoL most likely would like to Improve theirselves, I thought it could be a great idea to make a list for all (or at least a big percent) of all tips & tricks for this very game. (Both things that involves your mental, that gbay99 talks about, and general things that will make you grow as a player.) Before I do so, I'd like to ask if:

* This is something interesting you'd like to have.

* There perhaps could be some kind humans to PM me links of things they think i should bring?

Hey everyone, welcome back for another blog article in my series, Item Insights. This time I want to talk to you about yet another incredibly impopular item, namely Banner of Command. With a
popularity of 0 %, rarely anyone buys this item. If we look more closely, we see this item is almost exclusively bought on supports. Let's see why exactly that is:

• Costs 2360 gold
• Builds out of an Emblem of Valor and a

I am new to the game, and suck ***.
People keep telling me to remain calm and use adc, and start talking all this **** and giving me links to sites to help build my champ etc, then i take a look and it's just a bunch of words and colors... you might as well be speaking to me in another language!
Is there anyone out there who can ACTUALLY help me understand this game?
I've put a fair bit of money into LoL and feel like a complete idiot for doing so, i want to finish playing this game and get the F rid of it, but obviously because i have put money in i am reluctant to just quit and give up.
But i've had enough of everyone stealing my kills, calling me a noob and luring me into my death by saying 'follow me ill help' when they dont :/
WTF?!?!?!?!?!
I seriously don't understand this game and really want to...
anyone out there?

This blog post is "just for fun", assuming you find mathematics interesting. A little hypothetical formulation.

I mentioned in my previous post that aside from sometimes being faster, numerical approaches to modeling champion damage are more appropriate than algebraic ones. But what if we wanted to use algebra anyway, just to be awkward? How about this situation: Two Ashes, each with a BotRK and "simple" items (no Statikk Shiv). We want to model a duel between the two and determine who dies first, accounting for regeneration from HP/5 (but no Perseverance ) and lifesteal.

There are three variables here, the health of one ADC (x), the health of the other (y) and time (t). Damage and regeneration are simply components of derivatives of health with respect to time. The formulae I came up with look like this:

League of Legends’ EUW server has been a bit under the weather lately. For the past two-and-a-half weeks, players have felt the kick of regular service hiccups and lost ranked games to its fits of downtime.

Developers Riot have taken to their forums to apologise for an experience they acknowledge has been “intensely frustrating and frankly unacceptable”.

The rapid expansion of the game’s playerbase has “surprised and humbled” Riot, but it’s also given their servers a bit of a beating. EUW especially has grown extremely quickly and regularly breaks records for peak numbers, leaving the developers in “uncharted territory” when it comes to scaling their service.

“Occasionally this means things have broken in unexpected ways,” explained Demorphic, Riot’s European community manager. “Members of our technology team in Europe and back in Los Angeles have been hard at work to scale the infrastructure behind League of Legends and provide a game…

Welcome to the first post of a blog series in which I combine mathematical analysis with logic to investigate building ADCs. Why ADCs? I feel they are the easiest role to mathematically analyse and more importantly, the most relevant ones to do so. A very simplistic view of the ADC is someone who outputs consistent high DPS on the closest target. There are varying degrees of auto-attack reliance between ADCs, but many can have their damage output easily modeled.

As a brief disclaimer, numbers alone do not give an accurate picture of what happens in the Summoner's Rift, other effects must be taken into account, those are discussed in my conclusion.

Hey guys, this week I'm going to take EVERY jungle champion and let you know which jungle item to buy on them. Most of this is based off of MY opinion. They aren't set in stone so feel free to argue. Just know that this comes from watching the pro scene diligently and playing at the highest levels on a regular basis. If spirit stone is the right call I'll also give you the correct upgrade path as well. If I don't mention a champion its because I don't think they are a jungler.

This will just be done alphabetically.

Amumu - Spirit Stone - Spirit of the Ancient Golem.

Cho'Gath - Spirit Stone - Spirit of the Ancient Golem.

Dr. Mundo - Spirit Stone - Spirt of the Ancient Golem.

Elise - Spirit Stone - Spirit of the Spectral Wraith.

Evelynn - Spirit Stone - Spirit of the Elder Lizard (burn OP).

Fiddlesticks - Dorans Ring - Zhonyas

Gragas - Spirit Stone - Spirit of the Spectral Wraith.

Hecarim - Spirit Stone - Spirit of the Elder Lizard.

Jarvan IV - Preference - If you want to …

Hi all! If you are interested to know what I will do to try and contribute to the community, just take a bit of time to read what I am going to type out:

#1 Updates on both of my guides:

Recently, I have been trollvoted quite badly. I really do not know what I should do with the guides though. If you have any ideas, feel free to comment below!


#2 Working on a new guide:

Currently, I am spending a lot of time to work on a support Lulu guide! astrolia unfortunately archived his support Lulu guide, so I felt the need to include a new one cause the other support

Disclaimer: Please note that these matchups are not guaranteed to win, but are generally good picks against their counterparts. Please also consider that not everyone plays the same and a counterpick for someone else, may not work so well for you. In fact, we all usually main 2 or 1 or 2 heros because we play those heros better than the rest and that is something to consider when picking too.

When an ancient demon of war arrives to start a never-ending bloodbath, you better start running—or at least kiting, as the case may be in League of Legends. Aatrox is a new melee bruiser champion that relies on hefty lifesteal and some light CC to murder his targets.

If you want to see exactly how Aatrox fuels the bloodshed, look at his official profile.

The TLDR version: big wings, big sword, wants to fight forever, even after he’s dead.

Thirsty for blood

At his most base elements, Aatrox is a champion that wants to fight everyone all the time. Two of his abilities are built for teamfights, and the other two are built for sustainably dueling in lane.

That combination makes him ideal for a top-lane bruiser champion, allowing you to stay in the lane and push the wave, punish any aggression and escape any ganks with minimal consequences.

The core of that sustainability is his Blood Thirst ability (W), which heals him every third auto-attack. The heal amount…
