Damnation, so many cool characters, and you can't try them out because they need to be unlocked first.

That's kinda crap.

So far I've got Cho (from the code, posted by someone earlier) and Master Yi, both of whom I'm not entirely liking all that much (EDIT: Cho is nice once he starts to grow, but if enemies kill you, then growing is made very difficult... he's also a crap tank with no taunt... Yi on the other hand is squishy and prone to ganks). I heard Warwick is nice, as is Jax. I've seen Mundo being an annoying ass as well.

I haven't tried any assassins yet (the mentioned above Shen and Shaco). What's up with them? Why are they banned?

Shaco is most of the time banned probably because it is a stealth jungler ganker.
Nobody likes stealth, especially when it is able to jungle and get those buffs... and than backstab you.

That, and he can break a game completely if left alone in the jungle(between ganks, that is), which is incredibly hard to counter as he has the best escape mechanic in the game

I have found my new favorite champ i think.
Kassadin is really fun to play and really strong.
This is a game i just had, defeat though.

FFS, I hate the matchmaking system. So many times it has put me into shite teams, it's incredible.

See, a good game is one that's balanced, where both teams knock out each others turrets and the kills ~ deaths on both teams. Not when it's 10k/30d and we managed to destroy 3 towers... That's not a gg, that's a fucking steamroll and a sign that the matchmaking system maker needs to be hanged by the balls.

A good game is what I had yesterday; all towers down, inhibitors down, but the defense is strong and able to push the enemies back. Yes, the k/d ratio was all over the place on that one, but the way the battle turned makes it a worthy game.

*sigh*

Thats how my earlier game was, the one on the picture.
We lasted a good half hour before finally losing because their team killed all of us at the same time.

Well, I got Mundo yesterday, and he seems like a lot of fun. Nice early harassment with the cleaver, and nice health regeneration.

EDIT: Did I mention his critical attacks make him LITERALLY headbutt enemies? :lol:

I can't find a decent character to suit my taste. Mundo is all-right... but only after he gets a few items going. And he's no tank (something which people forget).

Plus, I think I have a ranged-class mentality. I keep wanting to run away at the first sign that I'm being hit. Plus, I'm still iffy about the cleaver mechanic. I understand the concept, but I could have sworn I threw the cleaver into people on a number of occasions, and it still missed. :huh:

On the other hand, he uses no mana, and if played right, might never really need to go back to replenish health (not that this has ever happened yet).

Are there any ranged classes that use energy or something?

What about Kennen? Energy, ranged attack, escape ability that plugs into an aoe spell. A bit expensive at 6300 RP tho, but I really liked kennen when playing her/him when it was free to play.

Edit: Also, I find myself playing Soraka alot lately (free to play) or other support champions, don't really mind it. But seriously, such an unappreciated role it is to play Soraka in games. Basically you'll spend most of the time keeping your teammates alive and mana'd up and occasionally throwing out some damage. When things go well you usually don't hear anyone say anything about it, and if they feel like it they'll blame their suicides on you for not healing them.

Some people insist that you should keep them company when they go mindlessly to an inevitable death, feckin naaabs.

He needs spirit visage and "that thing that gives AoE life steal that I just can't remember the name of", then you're done

Everything after that is just icing on the cake. With that, he's a better tank than no tank. Add on a Warmogs and you're an even bigger meat shield.

You could always go for Ashe, she's very strong support carry. Mana Sapphire->boots->catalyst->B.F. Sword->IE->moar damages.

@micro, you don't wanna play with solomid tryhards, then :lol:

Especially Finkill, boy that guy knows how to blame people for anything. "I Teleported into five of them while the rest of you were on the opposite side of the map, it's all your fault for... something!"

Yeah, I saw her/his price tag (what gender is that character anyway?!)... quite steep.

I was thinking of purchasing Ashe, as she's quite affordable and should give me a nice glance into what it's like being a ranged class. Or I could try and play a bit with that cannon midget that's free to play (and she's got a nice escape spell).

I just had a nice game as Mundo on that 3v3 map. I find I do a lot better there. The 5v5 map... I tend to get ganked and don't know what to do. Quite a lot of fun to switch ulti, the AoE and start beating people into a pulp. I was definitely the one getting the kill this game (for reference, we also had that cannon lady and the weird guy with the poison tank on his back; I didn't pay that much attention, but he seemed to do a lot of damage).

Started playing aswell few weeks back. Played some dota before all the allstars crap. Was quite good at that. Looking for a nice hero to play with...

Looking for something hard to master but incredible annoying and unpredictable.

For now i'm playing quite some with ashe. she is boring but her ulti is quite nice and i make amazing long distance shots with that. atleast i can always help my team with slow and she pushes her lanes quite nicely.

Wow... just wow.

I got into a game vs Jax, Vlad and that electric mage bastard... We didn't stand a chance. Being the only melee on my team I got mashed really bad.

To make matters worse... next game all our enemies left. I say "worse", because it wasn't a fun game at all, albeit I am grateful for the quick win.

I think everyone should try Kassadin, he's awesome.
I rape everyone all the time. <3

Have you tried Fiddlesticks? Not a nuker as such, but with 2 silence abilities (one being a stun to boot), drain and a powerful ulti, he seems like a very dangerous opponent... except you need help from your team, otherwise people will escape you.

YEa, i have played Fiddlesticks, didn't like him. I enjoyed kassadin alot more when i stacked ap, with my ulti down to 2 sec i just blip through and deal up to 600 +200 dmg with each blink. and then the cone dmg does up to like 300+300 and so. So as a nuker i prefer kassadin, because he nukes aoe real good.

Have you tried Nidalee? Of the champions I've tried thus far, she fits your description imo.

Yeah actually just played a game with her she's fun. early en mid game went just perfect. it's fun that you can tottaly suprise any enemy. unmatched speed and her nuke is quite oke to some extent.

Had a problem with her late game. when ppl are sticking together i couldn't get between anything anymore.. our team had the lead but last sec every turned around and lost :S.

But overall shes grrrreat fun

FFS! I'm starting to hate this game...

First, I wanted to try Kassadin, but he's no longer free to play and costs 3k IPs. But this I don't mind as much, after all, there are new champions to play with.

But what I DO mind is that you can no longer play practice matches vs bots only. I mean... WTF? If I'm taking a new champion, I want to test things out. I want to take my time and experiment with his damage and items. I don't want to do it during a normal game cos then I'll suck. Hell, I don't even want to do it during a practice game with other people, as there's a chance they'll make the push too early and end the game before I want to. This one decision makes me think that Riot is staffed by howler monkeys. :wall:

Man that sure does suck.
Being able to practice with your new hero is a big deal, because as you said, you don't want to do it in a real game.
Hopefully they'll bring it back.

I think they removed the practice games vs comp was because so many people did it and that had something to do with server lagg etc.

imo they should have just made it so you host the game locally on your own pc if that's the case. <.<
