How to Counter a Jungle Yi?

Now I consider myself an avid Kha'Zix player, particularly in the Jungle. However, I've noticed that whenever there is a Master Yi that is a jungler on the other team, he constantly counter jungles me and beats me. Every time. Granted this has happened only twice, but both times I was slaughtered in the same fashion. Here's a bit of info to describe my situations...

He always catches me at red buff, killing both me and stealing my buff. I know that this is because of a ward, because he uses

Zyra, a plant hugging hippy's dream date?

So, lately I've been playing a lot of Zyra support when I'm not being forced into some other role (support has actually become popular lately, not sure if I'm happy about that due to the fail support players increasing) and I've discovered a new love in my life. It's a pity she's kind of evil, I always pictured a plant lady to be a bit more loving but then I realized, nature isn't kind.

Nature, as a mater of fact, is kind of brutal. So in the end I've found myself gravitating towards her more often than not in ranked play depending on who I'm laning against and with.

So anyway, to answer my own question, I suppose if this hippy did a lot of drugs, I might be dumb enough to try to date Zyra, but I'm pretty sure she'd be more interested in my body. No, not like that, I meant as fertilizer.

Ashe, why?

So, after much trying and different test builds, I have determined that Ashe is pretty much pointless to play in S3. She has the worst damage out of all of the ADC champs along with no escapes/mobility. All she brings to the table is a Global Stun, IF you're good with it.

I have never seen a champ that needed a rework more than her. Firstly, she has 2 abilities that add 0 damage to her kit.

I say all this but it's not like she can't win a 1v1 with a few of the other ADC champs but there's nothing she can do that another champ can't do better. Even when Varus came out and everyone was touting him as Ashe v2.0, his kit is so much better in that not only does he have an extra damage skill, his passive adds damage to his basic attacks. His burst and sustained damage is higher, what's worse, in team fights his ult actually has better spread ability than Ashe's.

Overall, I've been trying to alter her role, sticking her as a support. This does work to some degree in that she can slow, scou…

JW's First Blog

Hello readers,I'm a young LoL player from EUW,been around since like April 2012,but went inactive mid season 2 due to technical stuff.So,as this is my first blog,it will be more introductive.


My favourite roles are(in descending order)top,mid and jungle.I really like versatile heroes that can be played on more lanes,some of my favourites would be:
Elise
Katarina
Tristana
Olaf



I have 250ish normal wins and 1399 TOP ELO in preseason 3(1351 atm) I don't want to go really deep into playing ranked for the moment,I still want to buy some heroes and runepages etc.Consider these games as a test.


My most succesful champion is Katarina,I played 8 of my placement matches with her(yeah,lame,i know)just to be sure i won't start at -200 ELO.Atm. I have like 72% winrate,wich is not really that impressive at this ELO,but it's good for me.


I am looking to improve as a player,and i'm looking to develop a unique playstyle that will leave a question mark above my enemy's head :)


I am training…

Testing and little introduction

Hello I'm new to League of Legends. I have avoided this game like for ages because of my bad experiences playing dota-ish games pre-warcraftIII (odd custom maps for Starcraft and what not) and after trying said mod of WarcraftIII 2 times, then quitted because the community there was horribly awful (and I didn't like the mod at all anyway).

After sometime I received news of League of Legends was in the works and that they wanted beta testers, I signed for it but studies made me to forget I have signed for testing it at all, and after the years, when I saw that the game was fully mature and that the community improved in contrast to those dota-zealots, I said "well, it better be good" and started playing League of Legends a little ago after peer pressure of my lv30 friends asked me to join their fun while sitting idle at the clan for an online survival game I will not mention here.

And then my eyes opened... I haven't had so much fun since I started playing (insert awesome ANet game), …

Focus: New and Learning Players

January 18, 2013

Earlier this week I celebrated one month as a LoL player. I believe the festivities included playing all pvp games with a random team and COMPLETELY avoiding my "first win of the day" bonus. Not much fun. But it WAS a learning experience.

I began playing LoL at the behest of my nephew, who's been playing for about a year. He would come over with his laptop, and plug it into my tv, so I could watch him play and go through champion profiles and such. I was fascinated fairly early on, but my gaming has been limited to consoles for years now. The last PC game I played was probably Warcraft II. In fact, I have Warcraft III and haven't even touched it. (Note to self: load up Warcraft III) So finally, months after my first introduction to LoL, I signed up and downloaded the game.

My nephew is 15 and a high school student, so during the day while he was in school I began trying to figure this out on my own. After the tutorial and the battle training segments, one is prompte…

This "elo hell" thing

I know there's a strong "there is no elo hell" thing around, and I half-agree. But lately I've been realizing I lose more games when I duo queue with lower elo friends than when I solo. It's just that no matter how bad/mediocre my laners are, I just can't have enough general presence to forcecarry and pretty much someone ****s up somewhere.

It's all a lot more complex than it looks, but at least on my regular elo there's less idiots and it's generally easier to create farmlane conditions while still creating gank or fight situations that are favorable. Heck, there's less dc's and people keep their cool.

Well, I need like 10 consecutive wins to return to where I was, and another 7-8 to finally reach that weird elusive 1.6K elo.

Fizz OP

Completely destroyed them in this game. I don't usually own this hard in games especially ranked but in this one I did. Last time I played Fizz in ranked pretty much the same thing happened. Maybe I should play him more lol. My farm isn't that good this game but I did roam a lot for my team so that's my excuse!


Brainstorming community problems

Ladies and gentlemen,

I want to write a new community guide, but I am out of inspiration :P

If anyone has something that bothers him/her about the LoL community, please leave a comment, I might write a guide about it :P

So far, I have the blaming game guide (basically about how to handle flamers) and a "how to deal with instalockers" guide.

So, again, if anyone has any ideas, please tell me, so we can help eachother :D

Thank you!
