Do we need coaches?

I felt like I wanted to do some writing and I usually do writing for myself on my own website but for now I think it's not a bad idea to use Mobafire to at least express myself to some people.

So coaching, it's really quite popular in tradional sports and even in professional League of Legends. We hear about professional teams needing a coach to help them get better in League of Legends and so the question is quite simple. For a normal player like myself and probably yourself, do we need coaches to make ourselves better and in relaity the answer is quite simple.

Quoted:
Do we wish to get better faster?


Everyone can learn how to play League of Legends without a coach but the knowledge a coach can give to you, that's what is interesting. I'm not saying we need a coach to get better in League of legends because everyone can get better but it's the amount of time it takes to get better, that's the question. I like to play League of Legends because it's fun platform is fun and there …

Game Making & Development - Review of TESV: Skyrim

Now with the recent Skyrim activity here on MOBAFire, where most people seem to be quite pleased with the game itself, or at least pleased once it has been modded, I felt that it was a great time to do an official review on the game in a brand new series that I'll happily call GMD! Which stands for, Game Making & Development. Yes very clever, I am well aware.

Before I start off, I must stress that I will look at every aspect of the game, and most of you will probably argue that I am nitpicky or simply expect too much. So if you're one of those people, I suggest that you quit reading right now, and go back to playing Call of Duty 78: Futuristic Warriors Evolved or whatever. Also, I will give this game an honest review; if I find anything good then I'll point it out, although, don't worry, that won't take long.

Generally this is all a matter of opinion, except when it's my opinion, then it's right. Oh, also, MissMaw got Platinum.

New MOBA (Gigantic): Your guys' thoughts?




So, I saw this new trailer for the MOBA Gigantic, and was wondering what you guys thought of it. The visuals look good, and from the brief in-game clip it looks like it's a third-person view. A brief summary of it:
Quoted:

A team action game developed by Seattle-area studio Motiga, where heroes battle alongside a massive guardian in a fight for supremacy.

So I got Plat yesterday

But for some weird reason I don't care at all xD...I would like to get Diamond because of a small promise I made to someone. I literally didn't give a damn about reaching Plat. When I won the game I was like "oh yay..plat..yay.." and that was it.

But I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little bit relieved. Reaching Plat halfway through the season means I have plenty of time to reach Diamond which is a really good thing. It would be quite the achievement to reach Diamond with 15-30 fps while maining Support xD

Well that's about all I had to say. I know I haven't been blogging recently but it's mostly because I have no idea what to talk about. I'll figure something out!

Thanks for reading this short post~! <3

Musings on the Jungle 2: Effective Duo Ques

So the topic for today's blog entry is Effective Duo Queuing. What I mean by effective is that you're queued up with a player who is going to have a positive effect on your win/loss ratio, and vice versa of course. With that being said here are the 5 "rules" I've learned about how to make a duo worthwhile.
  1. Always duo with someone who plays a role that compliments your own
  2. Always use some kind of voice communication software
  3. Always duo with someone at your skill level, not one above or below you
  4. Always be gracious and take the blame for your mistakes
  5. Always discuss your games after you finish them, watch them later if possible
The one rule that I don't like putting on this list is to play with someone you actually like. I think that's something pretty self explanatory. Back to the list now. Rule #1 is something that most people overlook, and that's why I put it first on the list. If you're going to duo queue with someone, you need to be playing complimentary roles. You shou…

Musings on the Jungle 1: Hiya!

Musings on the Jungle: 1

So there's a couple things that I want to talk about in this first issue. Firstly, I need to say that tanky utility junglers aren't completely back yet. Even if Riot decided to give them a little love, they still aren't to the point where you should take them over champions like Lee Sin and Elise. Secondly I want to say a few words about how junglers should go about making decisions on patch 4.11. And finally I want to say a little bit about who I am and why you should actually take my advice.
  1. Patches 4.10 and 4.11 saw Riot giving some major concessions to the tanky utility junglers who had fallen out of the meta since season 3. While a couple champions in particular got quality of life changes to their kit (here's looking at you

At the airport, Jamba Juice is good

So as some of you know I'm traveling this weekend. A mandatory trip for work (I WILL NOT DIVULGE MY TRADE) and I was silly enough to not bring my computer with me. That means no league, or watching OGN, or normal streams, or WHY DIDNT I BRING MY LAPTOP, WHY?!?! I'll be getting back home late Sunday night, and then I'll get to work on writing the first entry of "Musings on the Jungle" for all you PORO-items out there.

Other than that I'm looking to start an amateur level team for tournaments and such and such. My friend Phu (some of you might have read his Lux guide under the name Kaanon) would probably take the midlane role, and I would jungle. So if anyone at plat or above is interested in having a good time and trying our hand at some tournaments then HMU BRUH!

New Jungler blog coming soon!

Hey Poro-ites! Grand Marshall Poro here, I just wanted to talk to you guys about the new blog I'm starting here on Mobafire, called Musings on the Jungle. As the name suggests its going to be a jungle focused blog where I talk about my take on the current patch and meta in LoL. I will be posting to it at least bi-weekly and I hope that the community can learn from a 2 year veteran with like 4000 games overall. Expect it to drop the first entry sometime next week.

Anyhow, thanks for checking it out in advance friends. Happy ganking, and...

Ryze to the top!

Ryze to the top!
My ranked team Anitnomilkmanhere in august, 2014 is going to start our Ryze to the top. Our Ryze to the top is going to take us hopefully from bronze up to silver! Or possibly higher. What we are going to do is, if you subscribe to my Mobafire and/or follow me on twitch. We will do a contest, a random follower and subscriber if picked they will get a free Ryze skin of their choice!(the skin must not be unavailable for purchase)

Veigar

After playing veigar for a while, I have come to the conclusion that veigar can possibly be the best high damage mage in the game. Due to the fact that he is very important in team fights, this can often mean he is targeted first. Veigar is also a very squishy champion, he dies very easily in team fights or in lane making him not very popular. But when you coordinate with your team correctly veigar can stay alive, and deal a lot of damage to his enemy. In lane you always want to stay at an distances from your enemy no matter who they are. Safely Q(baleful strike) enemy minions and your enemy. By Qing the minions and getting a last hit you get 1+ ability power. I suggest maxing you baleful strike first, then your dark matter. In conclusion veigar is a key player for any team played correctly.
