so after looking through the patch notes, here is what i have to say:

• ahri nerf! yay, cuz i dun play her :)
• darius nerf! yay, cuz i lost to him quite a few times o.O
• hmm. i might consider playing some more ezreal now
• derp. just got into graves and now the nerf. or kind of. guess now he can burst even more.
• yay, jax nerf! been seeing lots of jax players carrying their games
• poor kog'maw. but seriously, i did think his living artillery did way too much dmg
• wow. that nocturne change. so effective. 1 point of healing at lvl 3...
• renekton buff! now more motivated to play him. IMO, he didnt really need a buff. pretty balanced guy. but wtv, works for me too
• SHEN NERF! WTF. seriously riot. what's up with the buff like mad and nerf ever mad-er later thingy?
• hmm. swain buff is good. i personally know someone who would be very happy about that :)
• soul reaver draven looks pretty beast. like blue glowly substance-style draven
• i love draven's ult. just puts so much utility into this guy

anyways. t…

I haven't played rank, but recently i've been spectating them. They don't really look at all different than the draft/regular games i already play every day. Though they are more competent in team composition and ward placement and get it down right. Is it all serious? Cuz i need to know if theres going to be the usual leavers/droppers/trolls/just bad person who played a lot to get to 30,etc. :3 in my opinion i think you should be level 30 to be ranked more like high 20's ? Ehhh these are my thoughts for today.

Needed to do all 3 ninjas O.o.


Kennen is a very strong and fun champion. He is the only ninja to fight from a distance, he is VERY mobile and can be used either as AP or AD (like Nidalee). He brings a large amount of stuns as well as having the lane poke of a teemo. Kennen is picked mid alot, so people will not know whether he is top or mid.
You have energy as your resource.

Passive: Mark of the Storm- Kennen's abilities add Marks of the Storm to opponents. Upon receiving 3 Marks of Storm, an opponent is stunned for 1 second and Kennen receives 25 energy. This stun is subject to diminishing returns on subsequent occurrences in a short time frame. Marks of storm last 8 seconds on the target.
This passive gives you your CC. Watch this passive and manage your stun marks well.

Q:

So yeah I just signed up to mobafire... Kinda nice been reading many guides on mobafire for about a year and a half and finally made and account. I love the LoL company and hope to make a nice guide one day for a champ and make it famous! I'm a great person and will accept any friend request. Be sure to PM in game if you ever want me to play with you! :D

I have decided to do a few things concerning LoL;

I will be creating a dedicated stream JUST for LoL. I currently do stream but it is a mixture of games, that are quite varied and I am inconsistent with it.
Therefore with this new channel it will have its own channel and I would stream more consistently too. At least 3-5 times a week, 3-5 hours each session.
I guess more info on that once everything is set up. The stream site would be own3d.tv.

Now you may think "Who the heck is this kid/guy/person?"
Well I am not really known at all in the LoL community...or really any community...But I guess that doesn't matter as I would be using this to GET known.

I've played LoL since it's release and before that I was a dota-holic since 2003. I've easily spend thousands of hours playing games like these, but mainly casually. I have been in some minor amateur tournaments, even managed to place 1st in one of them. But other than that I only really have my bad videos on youtube to support any rec…

Busy today,so this will be the only blog for today.

Overview:

So in top lane a very controversial thing I see is jungler's don't know when to gank and top laners do not even know when they NEED them. So in todays mechanics we will be talking about the jungler.

This will be done in a different fashion, a Q and A.

When should I ask for ganks?
Do not waste your junglers time, if you are ahead in lane you will not need ganks aside from maybe making sure a dive goes safely. During a mid- Disadvanatged lane for you the jungler should also gank. DO NOT BLAME A JUNGLER FOR YOUR LOSSES IF HE WAS NOT THERE.

My jungler is behind, what should I do.
Well this can be an issue, but there are a few things you can do to help him if you are doing well. You can let your jungler hold your lane for farm and xp while YOU roam around and gank. If you are ahead at top lane this allows you to spread your influence where you normally would not. You can also help him by LETTING HIM gank your lane that your …

I sit here, writing to whomever may read this, doubtfully many people, but hopefully someone to inform you that I have decided to throw in the towel for league of legends. Let me tell you it's been one hell of a ride and it was a decision a long time coming, probably overdue, but I think the reason I avoided it for so long was because I don't want something to end. Some people would say it's an embarrassment to call League of Legends a part of their life, but I wouldn't. League of Legends has been something for me to do, grow up with, and frankly it taught me quite a bit more about growing up than I have taught it.

I began playing league of legends around the middle of July 2010. It was the week when Xin Zhao came out, and anyone who remembers his release remembers being greeted by multiple penta-kills. It was hell week and saying it was rough is an understatement I thought multiple times that maybe I should just stick to WoW and that LoL may not be my style of game but I stuck with …

Level 9. First AP Item. A WILD TWITCH APPEARS! Uh-oh, he's got a WILD DARIUS right behind him!

In this situation, most people would try to run, but never get the chance.

So we give them boys the bird.

I'd just fast forward to lvl 9 if I were you. Otherwise, you'll see some quite embarrassing mistakes made by me early game :/ Including but not limited to: Diving onto Anivia with egg-form up, and flashing for no reason! However, parts of the Early game do highlight my increasing ability to last hit under turret (and swains one of the harder last hitters). You can really tell that I am putting thought and effort towards getting those last hits in, and keeping the lane won vs. Anivia.

How to play: Xin is a very strong top hero. when playing him you should always poke your player with your first skill. his passive makes him very strong until he is dead. a trick i like to do is when at 40% health run away from the enemy hero trying to lure them in, (this only works if they have 80% health or less and they are not fed) make sure you have mana and your first and third skill ready. you should also have wriggly lantern at this point. when the enemy gets within range of your third skill use it at the same time as activating you first skill by the time they can react they should already be in the air and on the run making an easy kill. with xin playing top lane always look for ganks, never go straight into battle but always come from the side bushes. only gank however if there is one hero or two heroes below 50% health. you should be able to get a kill or an assist easily
Spells: the spells i like to start out with are ghost and exhaust, this is because these two spells are…

So I've had some good success in my first release since being back on MOBAfire.
I do have another on the way that I think many of you will find extremely helpful.
I will tell you that it does have to do with ranked play. I think that it will be a great success once I release it and will improve a lot of players skills.

That's all for now, thanks for reading.
