I get this **** - we'll call it every 5 games or so.

"Are you just going to farm your jungle?"

No, but I am going to prioritize guaranteed gold and XP HIGHLY!

If in the process of farming a

Opportunity presents itself and I recognize it then I will take it.

The problem is that laners are really asking you to win their lane for them and that is not strictly a jungler's job.

I have a lane. It is called the jungle. It is guaranteed gold and XP that is super low risk.

Once upon a time I had, what I assume was a smurf playing in one of my games. They noticed that I was two levels behind the solo laners. They told me to stop trying to make plays and farm. Thank you Mr./Mrs. Smurf.

Be efficient with your time. Try not to die while you have camps up. Clear efficiently.

You know why an early Tiamat is highly prized by a lot of jungle champs? Because it lets them farm efficiently…

This is a brief step by step instruction on the basics of how to farm minions in lane. For a more detailed explanation behind the reasoning and methods of farming, continue reading the guide down below.

1. At the beginning of the game, minions will initially meet the opposing enemy minions in the direct middle of each lane. The timing that they arrive varies between the different lanes, so make sure to be positioned at your tower by 1 minute and 45 seconds at the latest.

2. Once the minions have begun fighting each other, resist the urge to begin killing the enemy minions and simply wait for your minions to severely injure your opponent's minions. During this phase of waiting, you probably do not want to get too close to the minions or the enemy minions/champion may begin to attack you.

3. Once an enemy minion's health gets low, position yourself in range to auto attack the enemy minion. The range at which you can hit minions will vary with each champion so if you are unsure just st…

I'm SauceSoldier I play in NA and would love to have a great person to duo with. I have a discord and everything so coms will not be a problem. I will play any roll necessary and would like to somehow make it out of bronze. If you're having the same problem as me feel free to add me and we can play it wont hurt to try. Hopefully I will see some of you on the rift.

Thinking through something that has been a problem for me.

Nothing looks like a surefire gank opportunity.

You still have choices of what to do:

1) Take scuttle crab
2) Get wards down at probable locations where their jungler or laners will walk through.
3) Invade the enemy jungle
4) Force* a gank

I'm not much for #4. But.

Think about what you might lose for getting some damage or blowing a Flash or Ghost on an enemy laner.

*don't be stupid about it. Don't gank into a huge minion wave. don't gank if your laner is really low unless you are sure you can kill the enemy champion yourself (baiting is tricky when you aren't on comms together).

So you don't kill them, but it potentially puts your laner in an advantageous position that they or you and they may be able to take advantage a little later.

Sure you need to think about things like:

1) If I show Top can they take Dragon?
2) If I show Top can I lose one or more camps on Bot side?
3) No presence at all, unless you are know…

So i have been wondering whos the strongest, without abilities, runes, masteries, items or any other boost. I have been playing as Miss Fortune recently and im shocked to see her at the bottom in both start and finish and by so much :/

I win more when I'm able to focus on what is important.

Watch the mini-map at all stages of the game.

For finer detail, get in the habit of using the F keys to watch your laners while they lane. (It takes some practice if you are not used to doing so). Watch for summoner usage and ward placement. This is easier if you use a jungler you are very familiar with so you have more attention for paying attention to what is going on in the map or to put it another way, you are going to miss out on a lot if you try to first time Nidalee jungle and all your attention is taken up trying to clear the jungle without dying.

Where did the enemy jungler start?

Think about where the enemy jungle started. See which laners come to lane late. Check their mana and health bars.

If their Top and Bot laners come to lane at the same time with no obvious mana loss, then their jungler probably started Raptors.

Keep in mind you can be tricked. Their laners can purposely come to lane late and use some …

My thoughts on Evelynn's rework:

Awesome, kinky, pretty, THICC, hot, and cool. In terms of design, they got how she is meant to be---an assassin lurking in the shadows and morphing through, capturing her victims with both beauty and power. I can see some of her old kit are still there but more enhanced, and I can't wait to try her out---as soon as I can jungle properly T_T Expect a lot of R34 of her 'cause that's inevitable XD

In terms of gameplay, I have high hopes that she can make an impact in LoL. The way she delivered her combos in stealth and damage is excellent and assassin-like of her---much more improved. I used to hate it when another champion has Charm. Yeah, I'm looking at you, Rakan. But for Evelynn, she deserves it due to that atmosphere she resonates as the Widowmaker (or is she now called "Agony's Embrace"?)

Looking forward to reworked Evelynn. Expect instalocks as well XD

Hello World!

I'm a relative newcomer to LoL and HotS, having discovered the world of MOBAs and eSports through (you guessed it from the title) my boys. I managed to get ranked this Spring in HotS, and I'm working my way to level 30 (29 and counting as of this writing) in LoL.

Being solidly in the "old people" category for this sport, I decided to start this blog to see if there are any other over 40s out there playing MOBAs (and thoroughly enjoying them, minus the flamers!), and give us a space to discuss the specific challenges of getting good when we have jobs and can't spend 40+ hours/week playing over and over.

I have no illusions that I'll ever make the pro circuit, but I have come to discover that I do really enjoy eSports, and as a techno-geek, I'm more likely to spend a lunch hour watching an eSport match than I ever am to watch regular sports.

One of my greatest challenges has been team fights. When everything gets all mushed up in the middle I find that I'm rarely able …

A lot of MOBAFire's guides are kinda... iffy in my opinion. The highest classed ones are sometimes written by golds, which I won't say is bad, but they obviously aren't experts.
All across the community I've seen people saying that if you use MOBAFire, you won't be taken seriously. trieu chung roi loan cuong duong
How good is MOBAFire? Also, if it really is this bad, how could it becomes so popular? (Search up guides, and you find MOBAFire)
Also, what are your thoughts on LOLKing guides? Are they just as bad?
