Intro

Yo, so i'm new to this. Got back to playing LoL about last week. Before that, I played LoL till lv.8 then stopped playing; now i'm lv 11, i'm still new. I've played quite a few games since then, i'd say i'm on the right track and i'm starting to see all the strategies there is to the game. I'm by no means great, but I will say I sometimes have complicated strategic ideas while playing (like using a backdoor to clear the area to help my team win). Don't know where this LoL thing is going for me but we'll see.

Thanks

Hitting the A in Aatrox

Champion


Aatrox is a controversial champion. He has seen play in LCS sometimes, but he's generally deemed as a mediocre champion by the community. He's actually not bad, but not among the best junglers/laners either. He doesn't really bring much to the table that others wouldn't do better. He's someone I'd like to see have his potential unlocked and unleashed - because he certainly has quite a lot of that.

Current Aatrox has decent damage, but has to build very tanky after lane phase just in order to survive. He has problems killing people later in the game unless fed, because his steroids and 'burst' doesn't scale all that well. One of the biggest problems is how irrelevant he becomes when behind. He's designed to be some form of melee carry without the tools to succeed in that, hence he's played as a bruiser that does many things okay-ish, but thrives in nothing. HE DOES NOT FEEL UNIQUE ENOUGH. HE DOES NOT FILL THE THEME HE WAS SET IN.

Season ending soon

So the season for ranked play is ending soon and it seems like I will end up in Plat again. I kinda had this feeling when I hit Plat that it would be the highest division I'd ever get to. One part of me does kinda believe that. That part of me also believes that I just can't be a special player and I could never been anything other than an average player.

But the thing is, the other side of me screams that I can be good because I've shown signs that I'm not just an ordinary player (like having way more game knowledge than your usual player). And that side of me doesn't want to give up on ranked just yet.

So even though right now I don't really feel motivated to play ranked as much as I used to be (because season is almost over and it's 99% obvious I'll end up in Plat), I feel like I'll be really motivated to play after the ELO reset.

Also, things are changing for my ranked play in Season 5. From now on, I'll take things more seriously. I'll do my absolute best to not pay attention t…

Common support mistakes (aka stop doing these and...

Introduction

Hello.

I thought about making a wall of text for the guide at first but I'm also seeking for opinions and more mistakes that supports are making. It feels better to have a wall of text here than in the guide too :)

So basically I had bronze V account and I'm taking it towards diamond V. (Currently being around platinum). I've seen supports of all kinds and picks. I've lost lanes only because of the support and I've almost lost my mind in some games. I'm trying to list mistakes that are really bothering me. Also trying to provide a example how to fix it or what should be done instead. I have no specific order in which I'm going to list the mistakes. Let's get to it then:


Starting with Ancient coin

Ancient Coin is a really bad starting item. It doesn't provide anything for the lane. It doens't give a single good stat for the early laning phase so you're already behind in lane if you start with it. Spellthief's Edge is much superior item for ranged supports. Superior …

10 things I hate about the League Community

Greetings Fellow Summoners and Welcome once again to my Blogs.

I have been playing league for over 18 months now and I do love playing it, the thrill of the action, the excitement of doing head first into a battle and the sigh of relief when the final Nexus is destroyed...Ohhh its quite the rush isn't it?

But for all that wonderful enjoyment there is one aspect of the game that could easily ruin it in the long run and that is a section of its community...Now I am not saying everyone is bad (thank god) however there is a large enough batch of them whose attitude and actions have ruined alot of our fun because of it.

So for this special blog I am going to point out 10 things about the League Community that I absolutely hate and despise greatly - Please not that this is in no particular order and some of you may disagree (and you are fully within your rights to do so) but remember these are my own opinions.

1. Those Who deliberately Feed

We have all had to deal with that player who w…

Pantheon popularity

So recently i have been playing a lot of pub games and back to about a month ago Pantheon seemed to be picked a lot because he was free to play, but why isn't he more commonly used in pub games? I play pantheon jungle and top and usually do very well, but i rarely encounter a Pantheon player on the other team let alone a draft pick where the other team even owns him as a champion. So why isn't he a huge choice?

Status update

Yo everyone,

been inactive for a long, long time. Haven't even lurked Mobafire for a long time. Figured I'd do a quick status update (although I dunno if this will get any attention due to the way blogs work atm).

I haven't been playing League as of lately at all. I did not really have any intention to quit to begin with (and I didn't want to say "I quit" preemtively like some of you guys ^^) but I found myself losing motivation to start up a game etc. I've been playing some singleplayer games instead and of course studying and doing some work to get some dolla dolla. I did watch all of worlds and I'm still keeping up with the game in terms of competitive gameplay, just not playing. This obviously also resulted me not being active on mobafire anymore.

I don't know if I'll (ever?) be back to the game or to Mobafire, but so far I can say it doesn't really look like it ;-) However, if you ever have any questions (can be league related as I'm still into competitive) you can ask me on sk…

What's the best way to play lucian ?

Hey there ,

I've been wondering how to Lucian...mostly I play Lucian as a ADC top laner.

In my opinion , Lucian will make a great poker and executioner , mostly because of The CUlling. In other scenarios you would have a hard time using Lucian against enemies with crowd control mostly like Ryze's rune prison and morgana's snare. In my case I would build Lucian attack speed , life steal , critical chance , damage and mostly boots for mobility.
( My personal build : Tri-force , BRK , PD , Blood Thirster , Last whisper , Berserker greaves )

So thats all and thanks for reading

The Hastur Chronicles: Prologue

Introduction

Hello MOBAfire! I am here to bring you an idea I had for a short story series! To give a short summary on whats going on in this series, it is set 20 years in the future from the point in time Runeterra is in in the current lore, and it is a very different place from what we currently see. The Institute of War has been shut down (sound familiar?), Demacia and Noxus have entered this "Cold War" status, and Shurima is slowly growing in power.

These stories follow Annie Hastur, the cute little pyromaniac 4 year old we all know and love, now fully grown, and having fully realized her potential. Wouldn't it be interesting to find out exactly what she can do, now that she is 24 years old? Well, you'll have to read on to find out.




Prologue

"Hello Annie. How are you today?"

Another interrogator. This is the fourth one. What do they want from me? I've already told them everything I know, but yet, it's like they're trying to find something, find a weakness. Of course they …
