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.

Well,i will join my friend's ranked team and they need a Off-tank and i'm the only one who accepts to play one,and i saving my money to buy one(Darius or Renekton) and i'm thinking in a hero that have a nice amount of damage while being a off-tank and if it's possible,this hero should be easy to play e.e.

Shen is a tank, he brings alot of utility to the team as well as being able to soak up good amounts of damage as well as deal ok damage himself. Shen provides the team sustain, Defense via an AoE taunt, and A shield that allows him to aid allies anywhere on the map. Shen is very durable in the top lane, and with his sustain and early game damage he can WIN vs most matchups right now.
Shen uses the energy resource which is like having alot of blue buffs on at once in your regen but you cannot build any more of it so you have to use your skills in moderation.

Passive: Ki Strike- Every 8 seconds, Shen's next attack will deal bonus magic damage equal to 4 + (6 × level) + (10% of his bonus health). Whenever Shen hits an enemy unit with a basic attack, the cooldown is reduced by 1.5 seconds. Shen restores 10 / 20 / 30 energy when he Ki Strikes.
Pretty simple skill, but even though it is simple in meaning it does ALOT in gameplay. This skill is …

So, today I was bored and I decided to look through the list of games available to spectate. I saw The Rain Man in one game so I decided to watch him play. A teamfight had erupted and a Xerath popped his Zhonya's Hourglass. Once it wore off, he was still golden and the ringing noise continued. I found it pretty funny and I was hoping the people in that game had seen it as well. Xerath was golden throughout the entire game.

I've also noticed a lot of other particle glitches happen in a couple games. Like if someone ignites another person, the particle will still be on them. There's also one time when I saw someone with double buff even though they didn't actually have it. Not to mention the HP glitch where they have 5 bars when in reality they have 20. Riot needs to fix these things.

Uh... I got stopped x_X

Yeah, I admit to failing at delivering daily content and making a huge gap instead, but - here I am back on the track! There were numerous reasons for me to having a break, one of them being that I prefer to play a game rather than talk about it, but for now on I'll be back with sharing my thoughts. Maybe not on such a regular basis I used to before, but still - I hope you'll enjoy and share some comments with your thoughts on the topics mentioned in my posts.

Let's get started with the first topic, being the very first of the series of my personal toplists regarding League of Legends. Some of them are going to have a possitive aspect, but most of them are going to be pretty much about me showing what annoys me in this game, and in particular - what annoys me in people playing this game. So starting off with top5 most annoying behaviours I tend to face in a solo q ranked lobby!

No. 5 Flamers
Well, there are lots of people flaming already in lobby, but I admit…

So currently I have done 15 top facts. But how many facts will there be in all? These are the champions I plan on releasing top facts for, tell me if there are any you think should be on here or want to add. This list currently adds up to 64 top laners, by the time im done there will probably be ~66 with riots love for bruisers, Meaning im about 1/4 done the top facts series.
Below is the list of champions I can do:

Akali-Done
Blitzcrank
Cho’Gath
