Elo hell is referred to as the zone in which the summoners elo is 0-1200. After passing 1200 you get games where there are less "baddies" and less "trolls/afkers".
In order to get out of elo hell you need to play either duo que with someone of like elo, but that someone also is skilled(unlike others at your elo), or play 3 positions, Mid, Jungle, or AD carry.
Mid

is a great position to play considering you generally become a nuke mid to late game. I have personally carried many games 4v5 in which i was on the 4 side, just because my teamates would protect me in team fights while i proceeded to nuke them down. Another great position to play is.
Jungle

The jungler is able to control the lane directly and indirectly. A direct way to control the lane, is to gank. Via ganking you waste the enemies summoner spells and often secure kills. The indirect way of controlling lanes is to fake a babysit on a certain lane, say mid, And force the enemy champion to play it safe, hug the tower and miss…

First off I would like to say this post and all future posts are entirely my opinion and if you disagree with it, that's cool, leave a comment saying why you disagree, if you are gonna be an *** about it then there's no point in you reading any further. This is my opinion on where the champions stand at the moment.

Tier 1 = These champions are a fantastic pick for their position, they will usually dominate their lane unless they have been counter picked, and are a great addition to any team

Tier 2 = These are still good picks, they are very strong and can do well if your team works well together, however they can be hard countered, or it is possible to lose your lane if your team doesn't work well. If you are great at playing a champion from this tier, it is a good as a tier 1 pick.

Tier 3 = These picks are ok, but the other tiers generally have better picks and you could do a lot better with them unless you happen to be very good with a specific champion.

Tier 4 = I wouldn't recom…

Hey, I'm Chris, but my IGN is ChrissyDoc and it is for most things, I am gonna start a personal blog about League of Legends, this will contain another person's opinion, if you cannot deal with that then I suggest you leave. I play on the EU West server if any of you would like to play with me. I did make an Evelynn build a while back and got it to #3 for a short while, but ever since I heard about the re-works coming, I thought, why bother, it wont be much use for very long. I will post here is I have an incredibly awesome game like this

Or a not so awesome game like this


There were reasons behind each one but I won't go in to too much detail, let's just say, having a premade team can be all the difference. Anyway, I am thinking of doing a Tier list too for all the lower, 1200 elo people like me as well, because Which champions dominate a game, really depends on what elo you sit at and how experienced your team is. I do have a more fun blog over at tumblr, if anyone want's a link, …

Hello this is Berzerk and I will be writing something I will call Top Facts, these will be facts about when to pick certain champions how to play them and what uses they can serve in your soloQ or Ranked teams. This will be my first Top Facts.

Overview:
Yorick is a Tanky-DPS champion who fights by summoning ghouls on his skills which deals Hybrid damage, magic damage on the initial skill cast and physical damage from the ghouls that follow. Yorick has little to no "counterpicks" that can shut him down in lane, and as most top lane players can tell you he is probably their least favorite matchup to fight. He has massive sustain and once he gets some mana regen is almost impossible to move out of lane. he has a slight falloff into the late game which is easily overlooked due to his ability to zone opponents and ultimate a ranged carry for a clone and a revive.

Skills:

Unholy Covenant (Passive): Yorick’s attacks deal more and he takes reduced damage for each summon that is active. M…

Introduction

Hello Mobafire people! Time to try out this whole blogging thing. This is actually the first blog I've ever written. I'm interested in writing about LoL because there's so much theory behind it. I've written a few guides now, for Anivia, Galio and Hecarim, so I think I have a bit of experience with the writing. I'd appreciate it if you guys would check out my guides and tell me what you think.

About the tier lists

These tier lists are my personal opinion. I've made them by watching high elo and tournament games and, of course, by playing games myself. They might change a lot, depending on patches or new experiences. Feel free to tell me if you think something isn't right and I'll have a closer look at it. The tier lists take every part of a champion into consideration and are fit for high-elo and competitive games. Explanations will follow as I get feedback or change things.

Tiers
Tier 1: These are the strongest champions. They are picked or banned most of the time in co…

I want to thank the community of mobafire.com for all the support they have given to the 2 guides I made just a bit more then a month ago. They gained a lot of support immediately after publishing, and now they are both in the top 5 for their respective champion. If you would like to check out these guides the links are listed below. If you do choose to vote and make a comment on it please only use constructive criticism, and vote based on all aspects of the guide. Thank You, and here are the links:

My guide finally hit a million views. In the grand scheme of things it doesn't mean jack ****, but I'm excited regardless. It's been a long time getting here so thanks to all the moba members that supported me and helped out, it means a lot to have you guys around. Say what you like but the people who hang around here continuously are a damn good lot if you ask me.

<3 you all

Edit: Now if I ever hit that 90% mark I'll **** myself. One can only hope.

I learned the hard way with this: what ruins your ELO is playing PvP on Twisted Treeline. My friend who is lv 30 has told me how broken it is, and I also know very well, because of how many losses/deaths I had. Being a lower summoner lv had nothing to do with it, so the lv 30s who call me out on that can suck it

I've been a longtime player of League of Legends, and I feel that it's finally time to start getting serious. My Season One elo maxed out at around 1261, and I've peaked at 1392 in Season 2, however my current elo is 1147 because solo queue sucks. It's time to get serious and pull myself up though, and I'll be playing every day with the goal of getting better.

I mainly play AP mid and top, but I've been on a jungle Mundo kick lately! I stream somewhat often at http://www.own3d.tv/live/306798/Darkdoom

If you come early in the morning or late at night, it's likely going to be solo queue ranked, and during the afternoon it's friends and I roflstomping normals, and if you want to see some crazy plays and hilarious dialogue, come watch!
