In one of the upcoming patches Riot plans to unveil a new scoring metric for games, temporarily being called "Escapes". They are unsure on how the exact details of this metric will be calculated yet but they plan to implement it as soon as they can because they don't feel Kills, Deaths, and Assists really tell the fully story of a game.

From a Riot Programmer speaking on condition of anonymity, "Too often during a game, in team fights, but especially in laning, sudden deaths are avoided because a player is able to maneuver away from a fight with less than 100 of their hp.... Read More

Sight Wards take away from the game. Players shouldn't be able to light up an entire map with vision. I see in a lot of championship games that they load up the entire map at start by purchasing a bunch of Sight Wards. Now that both sides can see it removes the random fog of war factor from the game and then becomes more like a boring micro managed chess match where everyone gets to consider their next move.

That obviously indicates that there's a pretty serious problem with the map being fair. You would think with how serious competition gets that they would remove an... Read More

Let me know what you think.

Some of the highest rated Mobafire builds seem kind of stupid. I understand what they are going for and their build may be the "best" end game build but it makes Caitlyn essentially useless early on.

What I've started doing is going for mana regeneration into spirit stone into Elder Spirit of the Lizard followed by Runaan's Hurricane.

This build order makes up for the gold loss when you sell to replace them with end game items and gets your build in quicker. Also it helps you farm and push lanes in a crazy fashion. Essentially you can destroy minions in mass really... Read More
