    New ranking system for season 3: http://na.leagueoflegends.com/news/new-league-system-coming-soon-ranked

    Sounds very similar to the Starcraft 2 system; which doesn't seem like a good idea in a non-1v1 game :/

    The best of 3/5 "promotion" matches sound horribly flawed. You could play as well as you always do and get trolled every time you start your promotion matches and so artificially slow your climb.

    Looks tremendous to be fair

    Ugh, I have no idea why they are imitating the Deadcraft 2 system. :(

    Nice site, but some of the stats seem quite dated, to the same extent as lolstats actually :S


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,084 ✭✭✭n1ck


    It's very up to date, usually I can view my last game on it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 36,164 ✭✭✭✭ED E


    Yeah, was my mistake.

    Had a fair few bugs since the preseason patch. Not fun.

    Add the channel "Irish Lol" to your chat(hit settings to auto join every time you login). You might get a few games out of that.

    Anyone been watching LCS?

    Giants played brilliantly against Gambit !

    Watched SK vs Wolves and it bored me to tears. SK very slow to finish that game despite the massive lead they had, since that didn't watch another game for fear of falling asleep

    You probably watched the worst match so far IMO.

    SK have an awful habit of dragging games out too long (they know this themselves) and it usually bites them in the Ass (think the recent backdoors by CLG on them). They dragged the game versus EG out a bit too long too, but their teamfighting was seriously on form and they won everytime. Seems like they don't know when they can win teamfights and are always unsure about initiating.

    Watch this match: Giants vs Gambit, giants close it out in only 30 minutes or so. All out aggression, probably the best way to take down Gambit.

    Not challenger yet, :/ but fiar play for Diamond 1 !

    Who counters AP Yi mid?

    Was thinking Fizz because of his W that reduces healing effects, but tbh meditate is only 10% of the problem. His wave clear is super strong, his ult means he can run away, I don't want to just sustain the lane, I want to kill him.

    Something with cc, tried morg but 2 skill shot dependent. So at the moment Annie or Fizz, anyone else?


    Nevermind, Chogath mid, owned Yi.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,932 ✭✭✭YouSavedMyLife


    Oh Chogath, is there anything you can't do?


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,409 ✭✭✭Icyseanfitz


    jesus people do take this game seriously dont they :D i love the game but ive never seen such an angry community


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,265 ✭✭✭Seifer

    It's actually the game that causes the anger. I mean the players are the same players that you probably play against in other games. The only difference with MOBA's is that you have to stick with the same four other people for a whole round. You can't just leave because your team is losing or someone is being a dick (well you can but you'll get banned eventually if you do). And so when you're stuck with a team and they seem to being doing things that you think are quite obviously stupid it pisses you off since they are essentially wasting 30~ mins of your life.

    Riot's player behaviour and justice team is working on ways to solve some of the issues that cause the most rage; it will be interesting to see if they can come up with anything that works.

    can we start boards.ie 5 man teeeeeeem? :/ mid or afk.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,409 ✭✭✭Icyseanfitz


    yeah i just hate when im having a bad game and some asshat decides to be abusive for the whole game while they generally arnt doing much better, pisses me off just as much when it isnt even aimed at me, particularly in normal non ranked games where people should be learning the ropes of the game anyway
