MOBAFire Blog Feed

A slight change from my past posts, this one is a more personal, self centered blog entry. If you came here looking for insight into the nature of Solo Queue, this isn't really the place.

When I get home from this League Hiatus, I'm gonna be going into Boot Camp mode for a week or so. It'll probably start Sunday morning, after I cast the Mobafire Inhouse on Saturday night. I'm going to be playing with a focus on improving, meaning I'll be writing notes on my screw ups, grinding out games, and above all else seeking to be critical of myself rather than my teammates (which is what it takes to improve). I'll be streaming this Boot Camp to my Twitch channel with music, and I encourage people to come and watch, partially because it helps motivate me and partially because I hope that there will be a decent amount of insight and not awful play.

A list of champions I'll be specifically drilling:

As some of you may know, I do armored combat. I fight in heavy armor with a rattan sword. For the most part it's quite fun, but this wasn't so much.

Yesterday we did some "sword drills". Or more accurately, stood around as human punching bags while the person we were paired with practiced sword shots on us (and vice-versa) for more than an hour. Which, there's a big difference between standing around while getting hit and actually fighting someone. Having fought this particular person before, I'm fast enough that he usually can't get a full hit on me.

I don't personally have thigh protection at the moment (which is my bad, but it's not required and it isn't cheap), so when I couldn't get the shield (which I'm not used to using) in front of my off-side thigh I took some hard shots.

I figured I'd share some pictures. I would like to note that these are VERY washed out.

Today I found out that MOBAfire is holding the tournament. I've been doing really well as adc lately and i'm glad that this opportunity as arose. I don't consider myself Doublelift's understudy or anything, but i mean, i've been playing adc for as long as i can remember and i main vayne. sooooooooo. I just hope i can get off of work for this tourny. I really want to prove myself to my friends and impress them. And OF COURSE, i'll try my best to win

Carrying on from the previous post, I compare the numerical value of building Last Whisper or an alternative item 3^rd. In this case, that item is Infinity Edge. Prior items are:

Hey guys!

Nera here with my first blog post. This will be about just getting to lvl 30's. From my own personal experience it hasn't been too too bad except for those games where even though you are playing with friends and in a skype call and you ward and everything yet you still get demolished. This happened to us yesterday where there was litteraly nothing we could do. The skill cap between the two teams were just so different. if i remember correctly within the first 10-15 minutes we had already died what feels like 15-20 times. I have to admit we aren't all experts my friends and i but we still have some know how like counter building and such yet still lost in such a way.

This game is fun but when it comes to those games where you know you can't win because the other team has so much more experience than you i personally don't know what i personally can do to try to turn it around. My friends aren't quitters which means that even though the 20 minute mark was passed they still w…

Hey everyone, welcome back to my weekly blog, Item Insights.

This time around I want to talk to you about boot enchantments. There are 5 different enchantments, namely Enchantment: Alacrity, Enchantment: Captain,

And welcome to Summer summoners

Summer usually means parties on beaches, vacations in the sun, time spent with family, etc. But not for me. For me the summer months mean that it's time to roll up my sleeves, bust out my jungle timer, and get to work on the Rift. I still have my goal to make it into the LCS and I won't be stopped.

My most productive months are during this time, mostly because I can play so much and get a lot of practice in. Mid lane is my best, and my Ahri play has been outstanding as of late. Unfortunately people are catching on and taking her. In my first ranked game today the opposing Ahri got fed early, and I just wasn't able to come back.

Meanwhile on the support front, things are going just a little bit better. Just won a game as Taric, poor guys had a Rengar that needed a little bit more practice. (Hey, not everyone is perfect!) So I avoid catastrophe and dropping into Silver 5 (again...)

Planning on entering a number of tournaments over the summer with some …

I was almost finished a game today and (not for the first time) the game just disconnected me, it still said I had my normal ping of 207 (aussie ping OP) and when i checked mobafire and lolking worked perfectly, then i reconnected for about 2 mins and it had severe lag, again with no ping issues or fps issues. It disconnected me again and then reconnnected me but it showed everyone being level 1, also it showed my farm as 104 (I was dc so dont abuse me for that) on the top right corner, but when I opened the scoreboard it showed my farm as 98, after the game ended it went black screen and said League of Legends client has stopped working and had the close window or wait to resolve problem thing, I'm not sure if the files I have for LoL are corrupted or something (the same thing happened 3 times in my last 10 matches) or whether my computer has something wrong with it.
If anyone has any ideas as to what is wrong please help
