"Heck yea, PENTAKILL KARTHUS!" *Buy*

"Hmm? What's this? Why can't I use Kar--"

Summoners,

Due to a current bug affecting AOE damage spells, we are temporarily disabling Karthus and Cassiopeia. These champions are disproportionately affected by this issue and will be re-enabled when we release a hotfix. Rest assured that we have a dedicated team working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

so riven thoughts?

i honestly think she's gonna rock

[njayhuang]

I think I'll try this game out. I downloaded it and did the first tutorial mission, but I'm going to wait until this test-filled week is over to start playing.

[Badog Vi Britania]

so njay what chu think of the game?

this thread kinda died a while ago and we really could use a /revice

[Calamity2007]

I just decided to download the game. Thought it couldn't hurt to try. Plus I love strategy games.

[Calamity2007]

Okay I downloaded a game and played a match with bots. Nice so far. I like how it combines elements of an action RPG with a RTS games.
By the way if anyone wants to play it. Here is a referral link.

I finally got a new graphics card, I can now play League agian

[Calamity2007]

Also my in-game name is Toshiro Hunter.

Also I chose Kayle as the first Champion to own. I like using her so far.

[M.C.MastaAustin]

I play Captin Teemo, hes allways on duty. I shall add you next time I am on.

[Calamity2007]

Hey, when do you guys recommend I should try to tackle the PVP? I am level 5 and all the battles I'm been in have been players against bots. I also heard that the community in this game can get quite hostile and unwelcoming at times. Is that true?

[M.C.MastaAustin]

Yeah its true, but to be honest dude, the only way to get better is to play agienst real people. Bots are weak you wont get any good practice out of fighting them.

And if you want, add me, my name is: McMastaAust

Yeah, I started to notice it when I did a Co-op against bots (there are alot of Champions I'm trying out), which really worries me. The community was one of the reasons one of my friends stopped playing the game during the beta.

I'll try to add you once I'm done with my homework.

Also Nautilus kicks ass.

[M.C.MastaAustin]

Natalis is a good champion, great for jungleing.

[Viroth]

So, supposedly this new Zyra champion (most likely AP carry by the sounds of it) is going to be something "never before seen in a Moba". Personally, I'm saving some IP for her, but I can't say I'm too excited due to Riot's history of falling flat on promises and dropping the ball.

Any one else hoping for something better than usual from her?

[M.C.MastaAustin]

I dunno, most of the time I detest new champions. I mean I just don't like them that much, I love the old ones, and with the new ones allways comeing out OP as a mofo, its annoying. Hopefully she is something neverbefore seen and Riot actually makes a new champ that has nothing wrong with her when she comes out lol.

[Viroth]

I can agree to an extent, M.C., as some of the newest champions are relatively iffy. I was relatively disappointed with Jayce and Darius, who really felt like a mish-mash of re-used abilities with some little edits.

Hopefully Riot gets back on track and starts releasing more "unique" characters, such as Ziggs. It feels like they're playing it safe rather than releasing innovative or creative design.

[The Regal RP Mod]

Hey I like Jayce... and with the Full Metal Skin I feel like Iron Thor.(Bad pun...) but he's not that bad.

[Viroth]

My problem with Jayce is his relatively bland kit. What it lacks in creativity and innovation it makes up for in having even more abilities.

I like it better when champions have a certain flair, something that hasn't been seen much before within the game, or a certain mechanic that binds their kit together. A good example is Draven, with whom you have to balance axe catching with positioning. His kit works well together, and gives him a certain playstyle that's unique and fun, if not slightly challenging.

In Jayce's case we mostly see a mixture of slightly tweaked abilities thrown together, yet another one of Riot's infamous "does it all" designs. The only mechanic I see as relatively "unique" is the interaction between Shock Blast and Acceleration Gate. Switching between melee and range with new abilities? We have nidalee for that. All his other abilities can are slightly tweaked versions of other champion's abilities which, in my opinion, leave Jayce as being relatively bland and generic.

Certainly the playstyle of a champion is unique even if the abilities are rehashed versions of other champ's skills, but there's nothing innovative, nothing new, and nothing exciting. What I want in a champion is something I haven't used before, something fun and unexpected. A great example of the kinds of champions I speak of is Orianna.

so does anyone play Dota 2
