League of Legends

[John Doe]

This is easily the stupidest game I have ever played.

...

*plays again*

lol, just remember the good old times when we came back from death to completely destroy them in the late game.

I thought we were dead. They even destroyed one of our inhibitors. Then I snuck in (as Rammus) and signal handedly took out the two bottom turrets and the bottom inhibitor while the 5 of them were at our base. Then we somehow destroyed everything in our paths despite being lower levels and having our asses kicked for the first 80% of that game. Sheesh, I love turnarounds.

[Jack]

And it's been lagging all night for me. And taking forever (moreso than usual) to load.

Getting worse. Waff said it runs like shit on his comp ever since a few patches ago.

[Kaden]

Yeah, Waff definitely gets burst of lag that make the game completely unplayable. It's hella queer.

[Jack]

Just played a 3v3 practice on Summoner's rift as Malphite (first time). Both my teammates quit within the first 3 minutes or so, and I ended up fighting the 3 of them alone.

1) I reached level 18 when they were all still like 11
2) Numerous sprees, rampages, etc.
3) So much fun not having to deal with stupid ass team mates, and having an entire map to myself.

Fiddlesticks had this shit where he could just use the energy drain on me, and I couldn't do enough damage to counteract how much health he was stealing from me? What the fuck is that about, how do I counter that? I was taking out turrets in like 5 seconds, but for some reason every time he did that I was powerless. =(

[Kaden]

It's a channeled spell, so it can be broken with knock-up/stun/silence/etc. and it also has a fixed range, so you can just walk out of it.

But yeah, that drain is nasty business. It gets pretty good AP ratio, especially considering it turns all of it into more health. I can definitely see someone like Malphite having a hard time dealing with that spell.

[Jack]

It took me dying a couple of times to realize that I couldn't do shit about it. I could have bout Malady instead of Zeal as my last item, that would have helped out a lot. But it honestly got boring running from lane to lane knowing I couldn't win so I just clicked whuteva. pics because it did happen:



was that a good item build?

[Kami]

Fiddlesticks is awesome. I'm thinking I'll buy him when I get enough points.

[Ashe]

Yeah, the lag has been pissing me off something serious lately. Its really annoying to play a skill shot character and pretty much always be two or three seconds behind them on firing. Almost seems like framerate problems despite that my computer is damn sure more than capable of handling the thing.

[Kaden]

A lot of people are complaining about the lag, actually. Not too long ago, they patched something to "optimize server connections" or some bullshit, and all of a sudden there's tons of lag.

Jack: that looks like a pretty solid build. EDIT: A lot of people go for +HP to get the most out of his passive damage shield. So... y'know... something to keep in mind if you play him again.

[Medraut]

I play.

I always play as Singed.

He's a beast.

[Belle Hibiki]

I think there's that Spell item that slows people hit by your spells, and I think it works on Fiddlesticks' drain.

S'been a while, though.

[Kaden]

There definitely is an item that slows on spell hit. It should work for the drain. Can't imagine why it wouldn't.

[Jack]

My computer is by no means a powerhouse, but these days I get like 3-5 FPS end-game when there's a shitload of minions concentrated in one spot. It used to get pretty lame, but never this bad.

Rylai's Crystal Scepter. And it works on pretty much any direct spell.

[Kaden]

I know there are items who's effects only apply to on-damage spells (don't remember which ones, off the top of my head, but there was actually a bullet about those in the last patch notes) and the Scepter might be one of them.

Fortunately, there are only a handful of spells that don't actually do any damage. Just something to keep in mind.

[Jack]

2+ minutes of loadtime, only to get 5 FPS all game. This game has been fucked.

What kind of machine are you running? Mine runs just fine...

[Belle Hibiki]

... Yeah, seriously, Jack. Maybe it's time to upgrade beyond the Pentium 90mhz. We're a little beyond that.

Yeah, I remember a mention of Rylai's being one of them. Stuff like Zilean's slow move wouldn't affect it (ignoring the actual slow from his spell itself.)

Actually, on the forums, a lot of people are complaining of unexplained FPS drop.
