[B][U]What is League of Legends?[/U][/B]
For those not familiar with DotA, the gameplay of League of Legends can best be described as a session-based action RPG. The developers of LoL classify it in a new genre entirely, as a MOBA or “Multiplayer Online Battle Arena”. You start the game at level one, with a small amount of gold, and no items. As you play, you receive experience and gold. This allows you to level up and purchase items, which increases both the power of your champions abilities, as well as their core stats. The main goal of every match is to destroy the opposing team's "Nexus", a structure found at the heart of their base. To get there, you must first fight your way past hordes of computer controlled monsters, also known as minions, which continuously spawn from the enemy base. The base itself is protected by structures called turrets, which also must be destroyed. Whichever team destroys the other team's Nexus first, wins the game. It's truly a team oriented game, and you need to work together to succeed.

[release][B][U]Why should I play League of Legends over DotA?[/U][/B]
*New and original playable champions.
*Built-in surrender functionality.
*A new in-game interface, with controls designed for this style of play.
*Account-level progression, adding out-of-game strategic depth and customization, known as the summoner system. This includes Runes and Masteries.
*Regular updates with many more features to come!
*An improved mini-map that shows your champion's pathing.
*Multiple maps, (Summoner's Rift, Summoner's Rift: Winter, Twisted Treeline, The Proving Grounds and The Crystal Scar)
*Easier to pick up and learn
*[highlight]Did I mention the game is completely FREE?[/highlight][/release]

[B][U]Game Mechanics:[/U][/B]
[B]Summoner Spells[/B]
You are allowed the use of two Summoner Spells in any match of League of Legends. You can choose from a large variety prior to the start of a game. They are all unique, and can easily alter the game in your favor if you use them correctly.

[B]Masteries[/B]
You can put up to 30 points, which are gained upon leveling up, into three categories of masteries - offense, defense, and utility. Some of the more advanced masteries require investment in lesser masteries. Summoner masteries are not set in stone; depending on the champion that you want to play, they may be changed to better suit your needs. You can even set them while selecting your champion before a match begins, so if your favorite champion is taken, you can change your masteries to better suit another.

[B]Runes[/B]
Before queuing for a match, you can make use of "Runes" to increase your champion's power. There are four types of Runes that you can use: glyphs, marks, seals, and quintessences. Before a match begins, you can choose from one of up to nine different rune configurations you have previously set in your Runebook. This allows for maximum flexibility in choosing a Runebook that is best suited for whatever champion end up using. You CANNOT change these while selecting your champion, so choose wisely before entering the queue. Even if you are unsure of how you want to build your champion, you should always select a rune page before entering the game. Runes can only benefit your character, and are never detrimental.

[URL="http://www.leagueoflegends.com/champions"]Here is the official list of all the champions in the game[/URL]

Every champion has a role to play. Here's the general archetypes of champions found within the game:
[B]Assassin:[/B] These champions specialize in taking out other champions. They are usually pretty frail, but make up for this in increased mobility with blinks, teleports, jumps, and even stealth abilities. These champions (a la their namesake) get into the action, burst down an enemy, and walk right out.

[B]Tank:[/B] They have the most health, the most armor, and the most magic resistance. These are the champions that initiate team fights and soak all the damage. They don't generally get as many kills as other champions, but they are great at getting assists. Some of them can force champions into attacking them, some of them can stun, while others have forms of "crowd control" that affect the entire enemy team.

[B]Attack Damage Carry (ADC for short):[/B] These champions are ranged and specialize in dealing damage damage consecutively. They are usually found behind the tanks and rely on attack damage, attack speed and armor penetration.

[B]Ability Power Carry (AP carry for short):[/B] AP Carries are capable of extreme burst damage and rely on items that give them ability power and magic penetration. AP Carries can be sorted into sub classes but they generally deal a lot of damage in a short time frame and then have to wait for cooldowns.

[B]Support:[/B] These are the champions that help the team in other ways besides kills. Supports typically help the team stay alive via heals, shields and aura items. They can also help the team get kills with their crowd control.

[IMG]http://imgkk.com/i/vhwd.png[/IMG]

[B]Q: Is it difficult to unlock champions?[/B]
Not really. For one thing, Riot selects ten new champions every week. For that week, the champions they selected are free to play. However, if you want to purchase a champion forever, you can use the Influence Points you earn while playing the game. Champions cost various amounts of IP, from 450 IP all the way up to 6300 IP. Winning a game, on average, nets you around 80-120IP. If it's your first win of the day, it's usually around 250 IP. Losing games even nets you around 60 IP. The free champions give you a taste, whilst IP is primarily used to unlock the champions you really liked when they were free.

[B]Q: My friend and I want to play in the same game. Can we?[/B]
Of course! If you're new, you might want to stick with the practice mode before you move onto the normal or ranked mode. People in the normal and ranked modes know what they are doing, especially the players in the ranked mode. You and your friend can practice against bots and get a feel of the game itself in practice mode.
The only catch is [B]you have to be on the same server as your friends.[/B] Most people will want to either play on the North America, [url=http://euw.leagueoflegends.com/eu-west-and-eu-nordic-east-country-list-0]EU West and EU Nordic & East[/url] servers. If you're Australian play on the North American server. There are other servers that are exclusive to specific countries like Korea, China, Turkey and Singapore.

[B]Q: I'm amazing at DotA and everything else DotA related, why should I bother?[/B]
Riot is passionate about the competitive scene in LoL. They hold sponsored tournaments all year long which build up into a grand finals ladder. The prizes of these tournaments are nothing to scoff at. If you have the ability to play well then competing in LoL could be for you.

[release][B]Q: I'm signed up. Now what?[/B]

*Start off with the tutorial! It will teach you the basic controls, game play mechanics, and the objectives of the game.
*Once you have a good handle on that, start a practice game and add bots. Practice mode allows you to explore the map and try out new champion,s without having to worry about playing well. The Bots aren't very difficult to beat, so don't expect them to be on par with actual players.
*The Co-op vs. AI mode puts you against harder bots with a team of real players. Great way to practice working together with others.
*Look up character guides on [URL="http://www.solomid.net/guides.php"]solomid.net[/URL] or ask us here. We can, usually, give good advice for any champion.
*When you feel like you're ready, join a Normal Game with solo queue![/release]

I know but in a situation where I don't have any other choice, I was thinking if it would work at all or would it end up being a really bad idea.

[Heigou]

I play in a premade from times to times with friends just for fun and one really really fucking sucks and we cringe whenever he plays singed.

One game we were all low health and he flinged a fucking Katarina in the middle of us all, she just had to ult and got a pentakill.

Singed is good at farming and pushing, neither of which are really that helpful to an ADC.

But this is pretty badass if you ask me. Better than glowing pink eyes

[Nallin]

You just get kages for gp10 and build sighstone, visage, and randuins among other tanky items. By endgame your potential to engage is amazing. Just throw yourself into the enemy team, ult, and run around like fuck spamming your w and collecting your blobs while making sure to knock the carry around. The enemy team panics because flubber flew in from halfway across the jungle and wastes their ignite on you.

Well. I accidently picked flash and played against another Hecarim with ghost, obviously he won. But they started laughing at me when i told them i'd do just as good as that hecarim if i had ghost. And they told me that flash would do bout the same.

Not sure how you guys feel about live streams but I'm currently trying to climb from Silver 3 (started at Silver 4) to Gold, I main AD carry and sometimes get my Silver 1 buddy to support me.

It makes for some pretty interesting games. I play ranked almost every day. Some tips from you guys would be pretty sweet too.
