Nice to see someone within the DOA community who plays LoL too. But why does this thread feel so dead D: ?

because it is T_T

i made this thread because on a similar site to FreeStepDodge called 8WayRun (for the Soul calibur community) there is a League of Legends thread that is received quite well. I was hoping it would be the same here but i'm thinking that there aren't many League players in FSD.

I was thinking maybe DOA players are more focused on DOA itself rather than LoL. Actually, I kinda stopped LoL since last week because solo-q matches me up with stubborn players. Plus since Ahri went from a great AP mid to literally an okay AP mid now, I really just stopped -_-. Riot's just buffing all those champs who doesn't need em now, and Syndra has been constantly buffed to the point of being a lane bully >_>.

Have you seen the latest patch preview?

yeah. none of my champions were really touched except Veigar who got a buff I've been thinking he should have had in the first place. My main mid is Lux. Everytime they touch her though she gets nerfed though. i'm curious about the new item cause it's gonna affect a lot of my builds for supports. both healer and tanks. (my only tank support is Leona :p) maybe i should start using Syndra again if she's getting buffed so much?

I think Syndra needs good positioning and really nimble fingers, she is only as good as a player's skill. But when mastered, she is actually quite the carry-slayer. At least she was designed in that way. The hardest part about her is just getting those stuns in with her spheres, because they are so position reliant. And I really think frame skips kills her. I have frame problems, which is why I do very badly with any ap mids now. I can still handle Ahri, but like Zyra and Syndra, it's just so damn bloody hard. I don't my fps can handle so much things on the screen at one time.

I mained her for awhile and I don't like her as an opponent ap mid because her base value for her shield is very high. That's the only thing I'll nerf in Lux. She got a few buffs didn't she? Like the reduced mana costs.

i thought they changed the mana cost to be more. i used to not worry about mana management once it hit mid game but now i have to be extra careful about it. it might just be me but i hadn't had that issue before. oh well. i just want the projectile time to be sped up on my Nami. they are all so friggen slow. if you have tier 5 boots alone you can outrun her ult. and her Q is really slow too.

I don't recall Lux being nerfed since I don't main her anymore. In regards to Nami, there were posts urging RIOT to buff her projectile speed, but RIOT responded with decreased cd timing. Morello mentioned he didn't want to buff anything that doesn't offer reward. Meaning to say that, if players land her Q right, the buff would be decreased CD. If players landed her Q right, buffing projectile speed only meant making her easier to abuse. Her ult, imo is really something that needs to be used in a fight. You just throw it out in the fight to give an edge. People run at the sight of it, LOL. It shouldn't be used as anything else unless the situation requires it

I've landed more successful ults than I have on Qs, and the advice I can offer is to just aim her skillshots further away than you normally would as Ezreal's or Ahri's skillshots. Because her skillshots are so slow, the enemies will underestimate it and attempt the cross over the area that you'll skillshot at rather than to juke it. Most of the time, it works for me. Or else, just throw her ult the moment you see a fight break out, and don't think or hesitate.

Either way, would you like to spar on PSN? I'm in need of some training for my Kokoro, Just don't kick my ass Q_Q. I'll be going on PSN in an hour or 30 minutes, just let me know if you're interested and I'll add you up on PSN.

alright. i main nami. i don't have a problem landing them outside of them being slow. having Rylai's makes everything easier for both Nami and her team. i only use the wave as a team fight momentum changer or mostly as secondary initiation. to have it be used as primary initiation isn't really good considering it is slow and normally scatters the team which isn't too good if you have, say a malphite, on the team.

Anyone here looking for a ranked team in Gold?
Click to expand...
so far i haven't been able to be apart of many ranked teams that stick together long. i've been in like, 4, ranked teams so far and only 2 of them have been together long enough to actually make it past placement matches and they've died right after that. and i've been waiting for that mmr reset before i actually tried ranked again but i'm down for anyone that needs a solid support. i can do every role well, but support role is my bread and butter role. because of it i know how to deal with matchups against other supports, adcs, and how to deal with ganks from junglers.

I've had LOL for quite sometime but only very recently have I finally gotten hooked into it. It's taken quite a while for me to really understand what things are and how the game works but I'm finally really grasping things now. I'm currently a level 9. Champions that I own are Ahri, Ashe, Caitlyn, Sivir and Soraka. However I mainly play Caitlyn and Sivir. Ahri and Soraka seemed interesting but I think my interests are with these AD champions. I also have a big infatuation for Soraka!! XD My biggest complaint about the game, aside from it not teaching you more indepth about the game, has been the game giving me idiot teammates. Whether they just simply suck or they do not communicate. The past couple of days I have ran into some decent teammates finally. This match from yesterday was a great victory for me!

a big thing about this game that separates the standard players from the great ones is learning how to carry team mates. even bad one. unless they suffer from down syndrome they normally are carry-able. if you feel you have what it takes to win the game and you know how to go about to doing so then take that position as leader. tell people what's going on and what to do. just make sure you're not condescending about it.

I'm only level 18 right now but closing in on that 20. Decent would be the best term to describe myself when it comes to my LoL skill.

Currently I own the following champs:

Ashe, Garen, Katarina, Veigar, Fiora, Sivir, Morgana, Cho'gath, Jinx, Kayle, Malphite, Master Yi, Poppy, Tristana, Tryndamere, TF, and Warwick.

Right now I like Veigar a lot. APC is my more favored one atm. And I like Bruisers, mage, and marksman.

Veigar is really good and is under rated. he can instantly make a 5v5 fight into a 4v5 in no time. and his aoe stun is really good for team fights. and with his passive he never really dies down in damage like most apc's when it gets to late game.
