I just want to give a thumbs up to Riot for creating the Honour system. I used to sit around and think "Why is it that I can only report players, why not be able to honour players who play well". I really hope that those honour points turn into something (Maybe IP boost?). I think that would really give people a reason to play more honourably.

Cheers!

Deep in the forest of Albion, laid the small village of Oakvale, unchanged by time and untouched by sword.

“Come on, wake up” I could hear my father saying, in my dream, why is he here? “Wake up son.” I felt the world rumble, then I woke. My father was shaking my shoulder, “Daydreaming again, were you? Just like your mother; mind always wandering.”
He was right, my mother was off to Barrow Fields to do some shopping, she was buying presents for my sister, it was her birthday today, “Well let it wander off to find your sister.” He informed me. “Where is she?” he looked at me with disappointed eyes, “She’s off playing by the Barrow Fields gate. Remember, you haven’t given her a present yet.” Ugh, why do I have to get her a present, well my dad will bail me out. “Don’t tell me you forgot to get her one. Well, Im not bailing you out this time.” He said harshly, “But dad how will I get her one?” I asked in about the same tone. “Hmm, I’ll tell you w…

In League of Legends there are so may champions who are used all the time but some way more than others. But why? Are the underplayed champions UP? Are they just boring? Do they just not fit into a team comp?

The most current under played champions are:

Karma, Urgot, Twitch, Sejuani, Heimerdinger, Poppy, Trundle, Xerath, Viktor, Zilean.

These are statistics for ranked play but it wouldn't be much different for normal play. Do you guys think these champions are UP?

Personally, I think Urgot got nerfed too hard. Xerath has no burst.

I know it has been a while since I was last on here and updated my profile and what not. Well that is because I have been hard at working making a new YouTube show and channel called kills of the week. This is where we take awesome kills clips and put them all together to bring you the most epic kills. It is still a work in progress. However, it is coming along greatly. Take a look at our first week http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHyRJfQ035k&feature=plcp right here. If you like subscribe and like also comment and submit your game footage for a chance to be on our kills of the week episode.

Well,

I guess this post serves as a karthatic medium for me, so bare with me if my point of view is very subjective and personal.

This out of the way I would like to speak about the "other meta" in LOL, not gameplay wise but community wise.

I had a short break of playing LOL regularly as I could not stand the constant bashing and harrassing of the players any more. I found out that I myself get quite aggressive when people misbehave in chat and you yourself have to be the better man, always... The so often used term "toxic" is quite fitting for this environment.
So I took a break and found out that 2 of my friends were interested in playing LOL and asked me, if I would like to join them for a few matches to share some of my experience (I am by no means a very successful player, and as I usually play support or jungle, I rather pull the strings in the background so the carrys can shine);

I agreed and we played about 30 matches in the past 2 weeks so far. What I experienced when …

Sort of a first time champ post but not really first time playing her.

So, here's a champ which is very rarely played in any level but has a rather interesting kit. Basically a walking AoE CC/Slow machine with some ok damage burst but minimal sustain. Your function is be a walking meat-shield with 100% AoE Slows.

Her initiate isn't top tier but it's definitely strong; with a quick Q W E combo into a small group or add the R at the end for a full on engage as the initiator of a team-fight she should be built as a HP Tank with augmented AP/CDR items. But since your W scales off Max HP it's going to be the majority of your damage through out the game.

Running Merc Treads, Rod of Ages, Mogs, WotA or Zeke's Herald (depending on who's carrying ADC or APC), Soul Shroud and BV. Swapping Soul Shroud for Guardian Angel for AD heavy enemy team comp.

Her major problem is late game, she has very little damage late game even though her early/mid is slightly high. So she's very team player specif…

I admit. This one makes me feel a little sorry for the other team. We had a legendary Rengar by fifteen minutes and I had more farm than their top and bot combined and like 4 assists from

Tier 1: Master Yi, Diana,

So, I don't know what everyone else's experiences are like but when the system went into effect before I even knew about it I saw an extreme change in how players addressed one another. At first I thought I was just getting lucky and found a good batch of summoners to run normals and ais. About 5 games into the new patch someone complemented me after the game and said he had honored me. After figuring it out I paid closer attention and sure enough I haven't run into more than a handful of straight up trolls.

Now I'm curious, does anyone else have this same situation going or am I just out on a limb on my own here?
