LoL Maths~ Clarifying some Misconceptions (Answer to...

Hey what's up MOBAFire community! In this post I won't really be answering to someone's question. What a selfish guy I am :P. I'll try to clarify some misconceptions and weird stuff.

*Disclaimer*: You may already know some of the info below. This is a long blog, if you don't want to read it all, skip to the conclusions :P.

Misconception #1:

Armor and Magic Resist have diminishing returns

Answer: Wrong. Only the damage multiplier number has diminishing returns. But that number alone has no meaning at all. What's the point of reducing damage if we don't even think of what effect damage has on you? When you take damage it reduces your Health. You HAVE TO take in consideration HP to see how efficient Resistances are. Each point of Resistance makes all of your Health points more resistant. When you put HP and resistances together to see how tanky you are, you can easily see that Resistances do not have any diminishing returns at all.

The formula is:

Effective HP = HP + 1% per point o

Really hate being MIA.

This past week has been ****. Around Tuesday I start feeling this pain in my side bellow my belly button, and I'm thinking maybe mother nature is about to bring me a gift so I just shrug it off. So, the next day I wake up and now the pain had gotten worse. I go to school and smile through the pain so people aren't like, "Omg, Laci are you okay?" and have to explain to them my side is hurting blah blah blah. Finally on Thursday, the pain is unbearable. I'm in bed crying,I didn't want to eat, and I felt nauseous. I tell my mom about it, and she's like "Hm, could be a kidney stone or your appendix." I'm like greattttttt I have finals, I can't be out of school. Come to find out, it I have "Irritable Bowel Disease". Once I went to bathroom,I was fine.

I feel bad because I went MIA again for a little while and I have signatures to finish. I always seem to go missing when they need to get done XD.

I guess this week hasn't been total ****. I received more money from FAFSA to go to school ov…

Tonight

Tonight we dine in hell boys, here's hoping for some 3v3 or 5v5 ranked in mind. 3v3 if friends're online, if not, I guess we're going solo then. In the jungle. Spekarim and Nocturne style. Maybe Nutilus if I gain that lil' IP.

Also, as always, I'm eager to hear any news of the upcoming changes Morello has been hinting at Rengar. Dat kitty will always be my first true love (no side-thoughts) of a champion.

Gotta love it when it's weekend and finally got some serious freetime.

The State of Inhouses

I became a referee two months ago, and as I've gone through and played several inhouses and hosted several inhouses, I've began to notice a few things.

1. People don't go off of the Inhouse list. We have sign-ups that aren't even used, why do we even have them? well it makes it a lot easier for me to do things, but I mean, why do I need them if I'm just pulling people from the mobafire chat and balancing based on wins and prior knowledge. They're not really even a rough estimate since half the people who sign up don't show and half the people who show never signed up. I feel like we should either enforce signups or just get rid of them again, we don't use them anyhow.

2. People don't show up. People need to commit to being at inhouses or say they won't. On the NA server, we host two separate inhouses, one for higher win players and one for lower win players. it often times becomes us waiting for 30 minutes to start because one dude doesn't show up and never told us. Please, if you sa…

LoL Maths~ Kog'Maw builds (Answer to Satella)

The first LoL Math question! Coming from Satella:

Given the following available items, calculate the build which would yield the highest expected autoattack DPS value for the AD carry Kog'Maw when attacking a hypothetical target with 4000 HP and 200 armor/100 MR.

LoL Maths

Sup guys. As some of you may already know, I really love LoL maths, more than anyone! I have been doing them for more than two years now and I have seen all sorts of interesting things (I've also seen some of the dumbest things xD).

If you have any question or anything and you'd like me to do some maths to figure out the answer, I encourage you to post your question here.

Hopefully this will interest people :P.

OH. And if you think I should make threads with this instead of Blog posts, tell me :D

Newb Journey: Day 6

Thank you for everyone who has been viewing this blog, we hit 100 total views. I mean that's not really that much but its a pretty big deal to me, at least 100 sets of eyes have seen me bumble through LoL.

Did some research today and came across /r/summonerschool I had never thought to check out reddit but the place is rather useful. It is a community of mentors and just helpful League players who want to help guide others to better play and higher ELO. I asked a couple of questions and I will pose them for you guys here as well.

1: When you fall behind in your lane, due to early death low CS or just getting pushed away due to too much damage and you have to recall back, what do you do to catch up? How do you avoid getting 2+ levels behind? How do you catch up when you are 2+ levels behind
2: When you want to work on your CS, do you practice in a solo custom game? or do you just do co-op vs. Bots? Strengths and weaknesses of both types of practice. Do you need to drill this sort of t…

Finally!

I finally finished my first "real" guide and I really hope you guys enjoy it! Please, if you have any changes, advice or props - please comment and tell what I could do better. I would really like that. Now, I know people would say it is pretty incomplete - and maybe it is, but that is why I need you to comment so I can improve, and make this and future guides better.
Thank you. Have a nice day! :3

Meiyjhe update (3)

Greetings ladies and gentlemen,

Without further ado, let's get to the topics of today :D

1. Archived
I decided to archive my Ezreal guide, due to the lack I play Ezreal atm, and the fact that it desperately needed an update. For that reason, I wanted to archive it, because it is pretty much trash :P


2. Reviews have started once again!
As promised, I would start reviewing guides again this weekend, and my weekend started today :D
I will keep using my sin/blessing scheme for those who ask for my help in my review shop.
However, I will stop using sins and blessings on new guides, because it requires me to analyze whole guides and write something about it, while most of the new guides do not even care for my help.
I am aware that there are some new guides out there that actually do use my advice, and I am very happy they do that, but with a bit of luck, they will find my review shop anywayz, so np :D


3. My boredome is reduced :D
I've been browsing through some games and series you…
