League of Legends - Getting Started

[Corey the Kiwi 83]

Here is a really good guide on the different types of supports and how to play them. 

 

[Cassidy 51]

You can add me on there too. My name is "Hurtful Username".

 

I'm also looking for someone to do some Duo Queue. I got slapped into Bronze IV after doing my provisionals with a friend (big mistake).

Cassidy, what's up man?  I'll add you to the OP.  I'll try to remember to add you when I get on LoL again, if not add me: BO7HB4RRELS

I ended up sending friend requests to a number of people. People I recognized anyways. If you get a  FriendRequest from DarkDragon2601 it me (cyberninja2601)

Mike, thanks again for using the referral code when you signed up.  You hit level 10 and I got some more bonus IP.  Thanks!  Push on to 20, lol.

How are you liking it so far?  Have you had a chance to team up with any other forum members?  

[cyberninja2601 1,106]

Don't like it so far. The screen positioning is very annoying. I think I'm level 6 or 7. You should have some XP because I had used your original link

 

I'm playing against bots and I think I am 6-0.

 

Playing as Ash mostly at the moment

[BO7H B4RRELS 2,453]

Screen positioning?  As in it's zoomed in too close?  Mouse wheel scroll to zoom out.  If it's not letting you move around to view off your screen, then you've probably hit the "Y" key.  That locks the camera onto your camera.  

 

Thanks for using the link

 

Ashe is solid, but try someone different.  She's a ranged ADC.  Maybe try a melee on top lane, or try a mage at mid.  It makes the game feel a lot different using different champions.  

[cyberninja2601 1,106]

Having to recenter the screen as opposed to it doing it by itself. It's actually possible to have you champ be offscreen which is a pain it the ass.

 

I've got a few champs. Trying them out. 

[BO7H B4RRELS 2,453]

You can hit the spacebar to re-center back on your champion.  

 

Or hold spacebar to stay locked on to your champ, then let go to look around the map.  

[Cassidy 51]

Do you guys play with your screen locked or unlocked?

[cyberninja2601 1,106]

I have no idea

[Cassidy 51]

When you move, does the camera move and stay centered on your champion?

[BO7H B4RRELS 2,453]

Unlocked. I'll lock it at times (When walking feom base back to battle) but usually it's unlocked. I use the spacebar feature more than the Y lock key.

[BO7H B4RRELS 2,453]

Don't like it so far....

Are you enjoying it anymore now that you've got the camera controls sorted out?  

[Dockter 17]

I started a new acct since I've only done 20 games of pvp all before level 15ish then I started getting paired with 30's after level 20 and getting my ass handed to me. I want an acct so I can start pvp right away and learn with people of my skill ( and those fun smurfs that will go 40-2 ) and try to get better and learn pvp this time through. If anyone wants to add me it's Dock24.

[cyberninja2601 1,106]

 I need to focus on one champ and get good with it. 

 

I'm certainly not in love with the game however.

 

Patrick

[Cassidy 51]

Focus one champion, and once you get good with that champion, it'll be a lot easier to learn others. I did started Ashe > Darius > any now. It gets easier.

[BO7H B4RRELS 2,453]

I did the same thing.  I stuck with Garen foreeeeever, then moved onto Annie, Master Yi, and now I can play about anyone and be fine. 

[Cassidy 51]

Just takes a while to get used to the game. Once you get a feel for everything, it'll take 1-3 games to get decent with a new champion. Just gotta push through the bullshit in the beginning.

[Corey the Kiwi 83]

Riot started a pretty cool "Teamwork OP" campaign. They have even made tumblr (http://teamworkop.tumblr.com/) with pictures and videos showing how teamwork helps. 

 

Here is the original video they made for it if you haven't seen it yet.

 

 

Here are some of my favourite pictures from the site
