Hello friends. Diamond 2 jungle main here.

Here are some tips and tricks that will hopefully win you games or improve your gameplay in the jungle. It's very rare that I see a jungler do these at any elo. Early points are like 1 big combination, just a small note.

1. Start from the opposite side of red buff if you're playing a jungler that benefits from it. You don't want to spend red buff to clear jungle camps with it. You want to have red buff when you're going to go gank lanes. Red buff should be your last or one of the last camps if you're focusing on ganking. This does not apply in 100% of the cases, read point 2.

2. Start from the opposite side of jungle of the lane you want to pressure. If you want to pressure top lane, start from bottom lane jungle. Decide which lanes are worth pressuring, for example: you might want to pressure bottom lane if the first dragon is infernal, read point 3.

3. Pressure your best lane that can snowball/carry/has gank potential. Do you have a Sor…

NA LCS has been fun to watch this season. Not to mention as a TSM fan since season 1, it's so nice to see them dominating everyone. There are occasional games where TSM doesn't play THAT well or someone on the team has an off-game. But overall they've done really well this split. It's even better to see because of the tough time they had last year post-MSI. Go TSM <3

I'm also pleasantly surprised Immortals are still doing really well and have only lost to TSM so far. I'm happy for my boy Turtle. Also another pleasant surprise is C9 FINALLY having a decent team that can win games WITHOUT Hai lol. The whole swapping thing with Bunny/Smoothie is nice to see. Subs are definitely underutilized in LCS and this is a good way to show these LCS teams that subs can be used in a more efficient way.

Biggest disappointments for me would have to be Echo Fox and NRG. I expected more from both teams. Echo Fox was doing well near the end of Spring Split and they had the potential to do really well af…

Hello friends.

Dunno how to write this up to look legit but tl;dr I'm offering free coaching for anyone interested. I have some coaching experience but by no means am I an expert but that's why it's free. I can help more or less depending on the case.

For credibility I have three accounts in mid diamond elo and I've been diamond since S3 so I know a few things about the game.

I main jungle/top, know stuff over bot lane, hopeless in mid lane. No requirements are needed to sign up for a coaching session or a video review but it's highly preferred and easier if you have a video uploaded in youtube or something.

Video review/coaching session can be done over private messages or we can go over to skype. Shoot me a message here or over pm if you are interested.

Hello lads.

I'm an idiot with no imagination so I decided to make blog as my last hope of finding an idea. Basically it's last day at school and people dress up funny/******ed to school and then go play around the city.

I've looked around in ebay for costumes but nothing has been too interesting so far. Trying to avoid cliches like superman costume or stuff like Mario and Luigi costumes.

Send help friends. Suggestions are welcome.

Hello.

Here's some kind of a jungle meta prediction blog. I'll post my own thoughts on the changes and how the jungle is going to work out. These are all predictions and nothing can be 100% confirmed during the pre-season. I'll also cover some champions that are going to be strong.


Jungle itemization:

Locket of the Iron Solari and Turbo Chemtank both went up in price and are not fit for jungle anymore I think. Those items should be taken by supports because they're too big money holes for junglers as they are now.

I feel like refillable potion should be a jungle starting item for almost everyone. Only start with 3 potions if you're not confident in being able to clear the jungle with only 2 potions. I wouldn't recommend upgrading the refillable potion because it takes too much money and it's not really needed.

Hunter's machete vs Talisman: Hunter's machete wins 100-0 in sustain. You want to take machete over Talisman for most of the champions because you will always end up gett…

Hello friends.

This is basically me trying my best to cover information one would find useful if they were to start working out from point zero which means no previous experience or information. There are probably better ways of doing things as I am no expert but I can help out through mistakes I made and through my experiences from when I started to this day. I've been working out for ~1.5 years soon myself with the help of Finnish weightlifting competitor.



The starting

Everyone recommends going to a gym as a starting point but I didn't like that option too much. Gyms can be intimidating and are very crowded so you can't just do your own thing as you need to take others in consideration too. I went to a nearby gym for a month at the beginning but I dropped out after that. What I found better was buy equipment to home and go to the gym later on with friends when I actually knew what I was doing but I don't even find going to the gym all that necessary.

So I recommend buying equip…

Hello friends.

I've been thinking about writing up a blog on how to start working out. I personally got motivated into working out in my first year of college/high school from a blog post like this in a gaming forum so I thought about making one here but I'm not sure if anyone planning to start workout or would just find this kind of blog useful.


I'll tell my story;

Originally the idea of starting to workout began in 7th grade but it sounded really unrealistic to start going to the gym and do something to actually get in a better shape because I had zero information on how to train or what's the ideal workout plan.

I noticed a blog post in a gaming forum about someone getting from being overweight into competing in bodybuilding competitions. This was around 9th grade I guess but I was still unsure but it was really motivational. I happend to be lucky enough to have Finland's 18-20 year olds bronze medalist in weightlifting as my neighbour few years later and he advised me in a rea…

I'm kind of tired of making blogs, they seem pointless so thats kind of why I haven't done one in forever. A lot things seem pointless now, trying to play this game seems pointless a lot of the time. I started to playing League back in season 1 right around the time Xin Zhao was released, back in Novemeber 2010. It's almost been 5 years since then and I've played literally thousands of games and spent way more hours than I really want to know, I have to say I wouldn't say it was wasted time at all, I enjoyed a lot of it, and I didn't always agree with Riot's stance on balancing, the direction of the game, but I had faith that they were making moves that would improve the game, but over the past 2 seasons in particular I think it's become abundantly clear that the direction of the game is quite poor for the average player. For the player that plays solo queue and isn't in the professional scene, it's a terrible experience and only getting worse.

There was a lot of commotion made about …

Hey guys,

After trying out three unconventional tanks in the top lane in Part 1 of this series, I asked you guys to name some supports that might be able to play in the top lane, and based on your recommendations & the limitations I had to deal with (aka not having all support champions on the account I was playing on) I picked three more to try out. If I didn't pick your suggestion, just assume that I realised it was a genius idea but I simply couldn't execute it :^)

As before, the number of games which my conclusions below are based on is once again pretty low (and by "pretty low" I mean literally one), so if you've experimented with any of these picks and made them work while I couldn't (or failed to make them work while I did) please let me know :)

► Why I thought it might work Though generally acting as a tank / CC-bot for her team, Leona's kit actually has great potential for a

Hey guys,

When it comes to champion picks, I'm usually a very "meta-obeying" League of Legends player. My mindset, in short, is this: the meta picks are meta for a reason. If other, unconventional choices would be better, those would be meta instead. Naturally, this means I have the best shot at climbing in ranked (and generally becoming a better player) if I stick to these meta choices.

However, because I thought it might be fun to change that for once and experiment a little bit, I decided to start a little Good Mythical Morning-inspired project and try out a bunch of random top lane picks. In this blog, I will share my findings with you. Keep in mind that most these findings will be based on a low amount of games, so take it with a grain of salt (or, if you disagree with any of the verdicts, let me know!).

Naturally, there's no point in calling it an unconventional top laner if the champion involved is already known for being played in the top lane. This means the champions in th…
