League: From 1 to 18

[quote=Shak3y]Hi there newbies, how do? When i started way back when playing DOTA. I did not have a clue what i was supposed to do. Yes i understood the objective of the game and such, but after laning phase i got quite lost as to how to play mid/late game. Always getting outlevel'd and cause a long line of defeats. I say NO! No to new players having to learn the game with the long hard learning curve. So, in true mobafire spirit i will host a series of EU games for 9 other players that need help to develop their game. If i get enough intreset from people. I understand that riot has implemented their SR tutorial. Which is very usefull; but it's nothing like playing against other players with team fights. So my suggestion is this: 1. Host 5v5 tutorial games for new players from mobafire. 2. Set up a base of experienced players who can run these tutorial games. 3. Devise a cunning plan, more cunning than a very cunning fox. 4. Give these tutorial games structure ie. "ok, now bottom oppostion has been killed. We want to think about dragon control." etc etc. Just an idea, and with good community backing it could be a great idea for our new friends. Because if we teach them now, someday they might win a game with us. yours, Shak3y[/quote]

[quote=Jebus McAzn]So I see that because of internet lag, you posted this thread four times and then another thread entailing a very brief apology as to why you did. You know what, that's fine - a mod will close the other ones. I'm just going to take some initiative here and designate this the "official" thread, so to speak.[/quote]

[quote=B-Wong]We already have a Mobafire Ventrillo server, I'm pretty sure if any new player to the game were to join anyone up in the game and ask for basic pointers the community would gladly play a few practice games vs. each other (4v4s? 4 guys one team 5 on the other but one guy sits at the main watching the new player while coaching. P.S. Riot, get us our observer mode.)[/quote]

[quote=cruise#29382]As a new player, that would be fantastic - I've picked up a /lot/ from TreeEskimos stream and watching the WCG games on youtube, but team fight strategies, when to dragon/baron, when the various phases transition and how to tell, etc. can only really be learnt from play.[/quote]

[quote=Scrax]Cruise, do you play on the EU or US servers? :) You are more than welcome in any premades we fire up![/quote]

[quote=Georax]I'll join Shak3y's project, and I am willing to aid him whenever I have spare time to do so :)[/quote]
