I really like playing in the top lane. Usually bruisers or fighters are placed there. Bruisers or Fighter are kinda tanky but have a good amount of damage. Examples of Top Laners are Jax, Jayce, Darius, Teemo, Rengar, Vladimir, Master Yi, and many more.

But as the Solo Top, you're usually ganked a lot by the enemy Jungler. Bruisers can't dish out their damage as fast as the AP Mid or AD Carry. You also fall of late game because you basically have no more damage

late game. You usually build tankier items instead when it's late game.

In team fights, your main goal is to protect your AD Carry and AP Carry. You should also cause a lot of disruption to the enemy teams. Almost all bruisers in the game have an AoE ability (Area of Effect) that can damage everybody on the team.

Now lets talk about items. If I'm using an AD based bruiser like Pantheon, Jayce, Darius, or Rengar, I usually get a Long Sword and two Health Potions. I want to last hit really well because bruisers are usually item dependent. By the way before going back, you should push your creeps to the enemy tower so that when your enemy laner comes back, he won't have any gold and experience when he comes back to lane.

On my first back, I usually turn my Long Sword into a Phage, buy a Boots, Health Potions, and 2 wards,

Here are example items if your looking for damage:

-Black Cleaver

-Bloodthirster

-Last Whisper

-Ravenous Hydra

-Frozen Mallet

Here are examples of items if you want to be a bit tanky:

-Warmog

-Sunfire Cape

-Aegis of the Legion

-Maw of Malmortius( if the enemy AP is really fed)

-Thornmail( if enemy has a really fed auto-attacker like Tryndamere or Vayne)

Bruisers are really fun and relies on protecting your carries and still dealing damage. I would recommmend Garen or Wukong. They both deal a fair amount of damage and is still tanky. Happy LoLing!!!

Playing as the Ranged AD or AD Carry

I normally don't play ranged champion but I still play a few. When I play AD Carry, I usually pick Vayne, Ezreal, or Draven. AD Carries have a lot of damage by using ranged auto-attacks like Vayne or use ranged skill-shot like Ezreal.

But AD Carries have their downsides too. They are usually focused down by the Bruisers and Assassins and only a few have escapes. That's why you should take Cleanse and Flash as Summoner's Spells when the enemy team has a lot of crowd control or CC (stuns, snares, knockbacks, etc.) or take Barrier and Flash just to be safe when you're at low health.

In the early game your two priorities is to farm and harass the enemy laner. AD Carries need a lot of gold and items to show their true potential. In team fights, your two top priorities are dealing damage and trying not to die or get focused. You should stay in the back of the fight if there is a team fight happening and go hard once there are only 2 or 3 remaining enemy champions.

As an AD Carry that uses auto-attacks like Vayne or Ashe, you should build attack damage, attack speed, lifesteal, and crit chance. But as a AD Carry that relies on their spells like Ezreal or Graves, you can have a very flexible build.

Playing as the AD Carry is really fun and relies on great positioning and dealing TONS OF DAMAGE.
If you want to try playing as a AD Carry, you should try Ashe or Varus. They are really simple and both of them deal a lot of damage. To carry the game as the AD Carry you should farm early game and play safe and own your enemy's mid game to late game.

So Rengar is free this week :P

Rengar is so OP. I was laning against a Tryndamere at the top lane. That was actually my first time playing Rengar. I basically destroyed their Tryndamere. I got my Savagery at level 1 and I bought a Long Sword and 2 Health Potions. I actually killed him 3 times before going back and just healed my self by using my Ferocity on Battle Roar.

Rengar really zones the enemy laner really well because of his passive. On my first back, I bought a Phage, Brutalizer, Bonetooth Necklace, Health Pots, and Wards. Warwick and Tryndamere actually ganked me and I killed them both which was really funny. I was roaming after that and ganked mid. Me and Brand killed Nidalle, but I took a lot of damage from the tower and I had to back.

I finished my Black Cleaver and and bought a Vampiric Scepter. Now it was just farming, getting kills, and owning everybody.We won and my final score was 40/6/5.

My full build was:
-Boots of Mobility
-Bonetooth Necklace
-Black Cleaver
-Last Whisper
-Bloodthirster
-Frozen Mallet

Rampage 2013

I'm really excited for Rampage 2013 at SMX at SM Mall of Asia! There are a lot of freebies and cool stuff.
There are Wristbands, Jackets, T-Shirts, Mousepads, Lanyards, and Keybles.

They also give some free in-game stuff like some free champions and some skins.
There will be cosplaying but I won't be participating. I will probably come but I'm not sure. I'm really excited and I plan on buying a Baller that says AP MID or Jungler and T-Shirt.

See you guys there!!!

Champion Attributes

There are six different attributes of each champion. These types are Ranged AD (AD Carry), Fighter, Support, Assassin, Tank, and Mage or AP Mid. Each attribute has a unique role and pros and cons.

Here are some of my favorite attributes:

Assassin
-My favorite role because you can kill someone very fast and get out easily.
-These kinds of champions usually use auto-attacks and skills that deal physical damage like Shaco or Zed
-There are some AP assassins like LeBlanc or Fizz that have a lot of burst damage using their skills.
-Most of these champions have a blink or some sort of invisibility skill .
-Really mobile and fast
-Really squishy because you mainly build damage
-Usually kill the squishy ones like the AP Mid, Ranged AD, or the Support
-Assassins are really squishy but have A LOT of damage
-Some recommended Assassins are Katarina and Master Yi

AP Mid
-They usually use skill shots or ranged spells and most of them have ranged auto-attacks
-Have a lot of burst damage.
-Can kill champions in one shot
-All most all of the AP Mids have no escapes
-Uses up a lot of Mana
-Some recommended AP Mids are Ryze and Annie

Fighter
-Really durable and has okay damage
-Mainly builds Attack Damage and Health, Armor, Magic Resist
-Really slow or has slow Attack Speed
-Some recommended champions are Garen

There are secondary attributes but I will talk about that in my next post. All of the attributes are really good and you should try each one. The ones I listed above are the ones I really have fun with. I will probably make a post about what items to build for each attribute.

Playing as the Jungler

What is Jungling anyway?

Jungling is the act of killing neutral monsters, which are based in the jungle portion of the map. Another definition for Jungling, however, is the act of one champion roaming across the map, ganking other lanes and killing the opponent laner and taking the farm available in the jungle and the neutral monsters that occupy it.

Here is picture of the jungle and the neutral monsters in it:

The champions I like to jungle are Shaco, Kha'Zix, Lee Sin,Warwick, Fiddlesticks, Amumu, Trundle, Nocturne, and Hecarim. You usually start of with Hunter's Machete which is a great item for junglers, and 5 Health Potions.

For Summoner's Spells, you should take:

Smite and Flash
OR
Smite and Ignite
OR
Smite and Exhaust

The jungle gives a lot of experience and gold. After you hit level 2 or 3, you should gank other lanes to get kills or assists to get even more gold and buy more jungling items. For people starting jungling, I would recommend using Warwick or Trundle because you have good health sustain in the jungle. The Jungler is a important role in any team composition. Jungling is really fun but you need cooperation with your teammates when ganking.

Playing Using Auto-Cast or Smartcast

When I started playing League of Legends, I didn't know what Smartcast was.

Smartcast is a setting you can do (look in your key binding setup in-game) that allows you to cast a skillshot using your cursor to determine where the shot goes instead of having to hit the button then click where you want it to go. It can save up to like 2-4 seconds.

My friend showed me how to use Smartcast. I thought it was really ugly because you wouldn't know the range of your skills and miss every skill shot when you're using Ezreal, Lee Sin, or Lux.

As time passed, I noticed I was casting spells really slow, so I tried it. It was really hard at first but if you really practice you will get the hang of it.You can do combos faster and actually be a better League player.

How to Avoid Being a Bad Player and How to Ward

I am a normal League player. I too have come across some troll teammates and arrogant players. A lot of players usually flame on someone when they do something wrong like building wrong items, playing the champion wrong, doing something idiotic, or anything of the like. When my teammate usually does something wrong, I tell him what he did but I don't get mad and I tell him that it's alright and we'll kick ass later. :)

Sometimes your teammates get mad at you or your teammate says your a "noob" cause you built the wrong item or played the champion wrong.This happens almost every game and you can't avoid it. When playing a new champion or trying a new build, tell them in champion select that you are trying something different. If they're okay with it, go and do it! But if they say no, try to reason with them or just do the new build or champion in a custom game with bots.

In some games your teammates get mad because you or your other teammate feeds the opponent. When a teammate feeds, I tell him that we can still win this and he doesn't need to quit or get mad at himself.

Remember to buy WARDS every game so that you don't get ganked and don't feed. Wards saves lives and reduces deaths. I only knew how to ward or what a ward was (I was level 7 at the time) when I played a game and always got ganked by the enemy Jungler every time I get back to lane. My team got mad at me and told me to ward so I don't get ganked all the time for 30 minutes. I said to my team that wards are a waste of gold but then my teammate explained to me that it could reduce my deaths and I could help more in team fights and get more kills. I learned my lesson and I started warding ever since. Here is a video why you should ward:
