Question # 4

As I said, things would cool down 
So i apologize for missing this question
Would you like more story line and lore in LoL?
I personally don't feel connected to their lore as I should be,
They need to explain it better IN GAME for some people
I want the details!
How about you?

Summer in the Air

In certain areas summer has begun. 
Enjoy it while you can.
And play a lot of League of Legends ;]
Good Luck out there,
Jordan Vinson

If you hear a rumor of some sort of fantastic update coming soon
be sure to tell us, so we can look into it.
Good Luck out there,

Calming Down

The blog is going to calm down for a bit. Ryan is not going to be posting for 6 weeks, and that makes me the lead blogger until he returns. 
I will still try to post at least 4 times a week, but until he is back things might go slowly. 
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Good luck out there,
Jordan Vinson

Question # 3

I've been busy lately and i didn't have time to post last weeks question, so...
What kind of character do you want LoL to add?

April 19, 2012

Question # 2

Would you want customizable champions? Not fully customizable though, because if they were, no one would use the regular champions. I think they would be a nice addition.

The Fist of Shadow
There exists an ancient order originating in the Ionian Isles dedicated to the preservation of balance. Order, chaos, light, darkness -- all things must exist in perfect harmony for such is the way of the universe. This order is known as the Kinkou and it employs a triumvirate of shadow warriors to uphold its causes in the world. Akali is one of these shadow warriors, entrusted with the sacred duty of Pruning the Tree - eliminating those who threaten the equilibrium of Valoran. 



A prodigal martial artist, Akali began training with her mother as soon as she could make a fist. Her mother's discipline was relentless and unforgiving, but predicated on the fundamental principle: ''We do that which must be done.'' When the Kinkou inducted her into the order at the age of fourteen, she could slice a dangling chain with a chop of her hand. There was no question - she would succeed her mother as the Fist of Shadow. She has had to do much in this role which others might find morally questionable, but to her it is in service of her mother's inviolable doctrine. She now works with her fellows Shen and Kennen to enforce the balance of Valoran. This hallowed pursuit has unsurprisingly led the triumvirate to the Fields of Justice.


''The Fist of Shadow strikes from the cover of death itself. Do not impede the balance.''

Tips:

  • You can use runes and masteries to trigger her passive.
  • Akali excels at killing weaker characters. Let your team initiate and then strike at the people in the back.
  • Find the balance between storing Essence of Shadows, and using Shadow Dance before having max charges.

Worst Match

  I just had my worst match ever. No i'm sorry, but i do not want to give you details, because it was that terrible. Lots of mistakes, and raging. I officially hate Nocturne and Alistar, they are way over powered as a team. Anyway enough of my ranting, i hope you all do better then what i just did. Bye.

Bought Teemo Yesterday

Yesterday, I bought Teemo.
He is a pretty interesting champion,

My build for him is:
  • Berserker's Greaves
  • Malady
  • Frozen Mallet
  • Guardian Angel
  • Madred's Bloodrazor
  • Wit's End
He was pretty easy to play as, since I usually use Twitch.

The things that I liked about Teemo were his: poison, invisibilty, and his mushrooms.
The poison could finish off enemies with low health that escaped. I could hide from enemies with invisibility so I could escape. His mushrooms are an invisible trap that take  out a good amount of health. 

For being 1250 Influence Points, Teemo was a good buy.

Motivational Speech for Twitch (sort of)

  Imagine you are Twitch and the last champion alive. Your team has about a minute until they spawn, And both nexus' are exposed. The enemy is in your base and you are in their base. Your nexus is taking hit after hit. You're damaging their nexus at about the same rate as their damaging yours. But just one problem, An enemy champion is on its way to kill you. You slam on your ultimate and Start firing through the nexus at double damage. You happen to get lucky and as the enemy champion is heading towards you he is killed. You keep attacking the nexus at increased damage and you barely win the match, because if you would have took just a second longer, you would have surely lost.
Good Luck out there,
Jordan Vinson

A little about me, Lots about you

Welcome Summoners,
    As you all may know, I have recently became an administrator of our blog. Aside from that, I welcome you and wish you the best of luck on the Fields of Justice. I have played LoL for awhile and have become well rounded with junglers, melee fighters, and tanks. My go-to guy is Warwick, but I also play as Amumu, Nautilus, Volibear, and Jarvan IV. But enough about me, lets hear about you guys, our loyal bloggers. I'd like to hear about your favorite champs, builds for them, masteries for them, runes for them, and basically the whole nine yards. So if you want to talk about champs, I'll be on everyday, I'm always up for a good chat.

                                                  May the odds be ever in your favor

I would only use them  for the skins
Good Luck out there,

What Character Should I Get Next?

As the title said

Intense 3v3's

Ryan, Noah and I played some intense 3v3's Today
They lasted about an hour each, and it kept going back and forth. The other teams were usually around our strength, but at other times we were the dominate team. 
With a few occasional desperate pushes we won some of those matches. 
With others, we weren't as lucky. 
Overall we won almost all of our matches today.
Good luck out there, 
Jordan Vinson

Question # 1

If LoL was to come out with a new map, what kind of map would you want it to be? I personally would want a 6 v 6, 4 pathways underwater map.

April 11, 2012

While Ryan is doing that..

I think that i will do my own thing once a week. Every Thursday i will post a question about a champion. Some questions will be true or false and others will be your opinion. When i post a true or false question and you answer it right, you are awesome. If you get it wrong, YOU are still awesome. Good luck.

Character Archive: Ahri

Unlike other foxes that roamed the woods of southern Ionia, Ahri had always felt a strange connection to the magical world around her; a connection that was somehow incomplete. Deep inside, she felt the skin she had been born into was an ill fit for her and dreamt of one day becoming human. Her goal seemed forever out of reach, until she happened upon the wake of a human battle. It was a grisly scene, the land obscured by the forms of wounded and dying soldiers. She felt drawn to one: a robed man encircled by a waning field of magic whose life was quickly slipping away. She approached him and something deep inside of her triggered, reaching out to the man in a way she couldn't understand. His life essence poured into her, carried on invisible strands of magic. The sensation was intoxicating and overwhelming. As her reverie faded, she was delighted to discover that she had changed. Her sleek white fur had receded and her body was long and lithe - the shape of the humans who lay scattered about her.

However, though she appeared human, she knew that in truth the transformation was incomplete. A cunning creature, she adapted herself to the customs of human society and used her profound gift of beauty to attract unsuspecting men. She could consume their life essences when they were under the spell of her seductive charms. Feeding on their desires brought her closer to her dream, but as she took more lives, a strange sense of regret began to well within her. She had reservations about actions which never troubled her as a fox. She realized that she could not overcome the pangs of her evolving morality. In search of a solution, Ahri found the Institute of War, home of the most gifted mages on Runeterra. They offered her a chance to attain her humanity without further harm through service in the League of Legends.

''Mercy is a human luxury... and responsibility.''

-Ahri, The 9 Tails Fox

      Tips:



      • Use Charm to set up your combos, it will make landing Orb of Deception and Fox-Fire dramatically easier.

      • Initiate team fights using Charm, and chase down stragglers with Spirit Rush.

      • Spirit Rush enables Ahri's abilities, it opens up paths for Charm, helps double hitting with Orb of Deception, and closes to make use of Fox-Fire.

So Ryan, And anyone else out there...

What do you think about new characters in LoL?

I think that they get somewhat overused (because of all the hype each time a new character comes out), but besides that, they are fine. They also seem to be getting weaker, or the players are getting worse. Oh well.

Yeah, good to be here

Thanks for giving me such a.... "pleasant" introduction... haha I'm just kidding, it was great. Also, if this is your first time on the blog, WELCOME!
