Season 1 starts July 13th!

So glad it starts the ONE WEEK I WILL BE AWAY FROM MY COMPUTER.

[Ashe]

Ok, I decided not to go out for EDH tonight, so if a game gets going, text me. Gonna watch a movie with Erin though so might not be on in the next two hours.

[Ashe]

THANKS REDDIT! For this little gem of a link...

I won't be on tomorrow night due to Tuesday nights being a Magic night with friends, but I don't figure that'll bother anyone since it seems LoL interest has crashed a bit in the last week or two.

I've mostly been busy with nonsense surrounding the 4th. Now that that's over, though, I definitely plan on being around for Season One radaciousness.

[Kami]

I've got about 8 levels to go before I hit 20...so maybe I'll start thinking about season 2

O_o

Agreed. I'm actually starting to get a bit... hyped for it. Blood flowing and stuff (though not in a super competitive way, just in that "ALRIGHT" kinda way). Its interesting to say the least.

That said, I'd love to try to get myself and anyone else below 30 up to 30 sometime. Maybe get an xp boost and spend a good day grinding.

SPEAKING OF... Am I just overlooking it, or did they completely remove the "XP per Win for 4/10 Wins" and IP clone of that from the store? The ones where it only consumed itself over the course of each win and not a time duration.

[Tyr]

Lost my 50+ and ragequitted so hard I'm out till season 1. I can't even open the program without rage just swelling up. I just started getting decent teams in MM, but then just really stupid things made me lose. x_x

Do you have to be 30 for that nonsense? Sheesh. Wait, don't answer that, I'll go look on the LoL website.

Maybe someday I'll get to 30? Who knows. Not sure if I'm willing to buy an XP boost and grind on it while it's active though.

[Kaden]

@Ashe: You're just overlooking it. I'm sitting in the client looking at those in the store.

@Leo: Stop doing stupid things, sheesh.

@Kami: Level 20+ for Ranked, in case you never bothered to check the site.

One of the things I'm looking forward to are the expanded stats Riot said they'd start showing for ranked games. It would be kind of cool to see what my actual Elo is and where I fall on the ladder.

Tried a couple games as Kog'Maw today. Not sure how I feel about him yet, though. He can almost put out enough DPS to justify the almost-complete lack of CC, but didn't quite get there for me (I played AS/AP hybrid, though I ended the game with over 200 AP). Something like Rylias might be necessary for him (might be able to get away with Mallet, since he has pretty significant range). I see him getting very little ranked play. Have to say, though, getting Last Whisper and have 80% armor pen was lawltastic. I felt bad for their Taric.

[Ashe]

Actually, I talked to Waff earlier. He said they did remove the bonuses for a week or so due to them not working as coded, but looks like they returned them. Last week, when I was talking to I believe Civik about it, there was only one page of boosts - the time duration ones.

About the level 30 thing, I mentioned it more in the sense of getting your rune pages and talents filled out.

Kog'Maw is interesting. Not sure what to say beyond that. I enjoyed playing on him a little in a practice bot match, but I'd really have to learn builds better.

[Kami]

@Kaden: Thanks! And I did go check too!

After that last game we played (Teemer, Ashe, Kaden) I did another Normal Game as Shen and went 8/2/5 (I think...or at least very close. 8/2 for sure) and my team ended up steamrolling mid at the end. It was pretty awesome. I was building Shen on AP and the other team, since I am level 12, sucked balls and was easily rocked. It was fun though.

[Kaden]

Interesting. I've never built Shen off AP before.

[Kami]

Interesting. I've never built Shen off AP before.

I'm still learning how the best way to go about building an AP Shen, but he's beastly when his damage output gets ramped up.

[Tyr]

So I couldn't keep myself off for long. Problem is MM is absolutely fucked. I got sent against a full premade solo queue.

[Kaden]

Just bought Ez. I'll be running some games with him.

[Kole T. Merr]

I need to get back into the Blitz mode of things. Been a while since i played him.

[John Doe]

A tournament? Anyone interested?

[Kole T. Merr]

That would be pretty sick. And I know I wouldnt mind winning an i7

[Ashe]

Just bought Ez. I'll be running some games with him.

I've been actually seriously considering the same thing, to the point of being in the store hovering over the "unlock" button and finally backing out at the last moment.

[Orion]

I don't think Ez is that good. =/
