I was wondering if I should check out the game? What do you do in it? I know its like a strategy team playing game. But do you just start on opposite sides and try to kill the opposite team? or is it like trying to capture position or something? Might check it out this summer.

Alright so the basis of the game is centered around destroying the "nexus" a big floating crystal in each teams base. Now outside of each nexus are 3 inhibitors, each protected by a turret ( the nexus is protected by 2) Outside of the inhibitors and their turrets are two turrets in each lane. there are 3 lanes, which in game are typically called Top, mid, and bot because thats how they appear on the mini-map and it just makes sense. Now there are 99 champions in game to choose from each with specific roles. There are ranged AD carries, which are centered around late game and doing tons of physical damage and are usually paired in bot lane with a support, AP carries, which focus on doing tons of magic damage and are usually played in Mid lane, Junglers, who clear minions in between the lanes in the jungle and gain certain buffs from these minions and "gank" the 3 lanes, which is essentially coming out of the jungle and surprise attacking someone. Top lane is normally played by tanky characters, such as Bruisers, Tanks, Pushers, and Mages, and it's pretty much one of the most agressive lanes. Supports are usually paired with ranged AD carries at bottom lane because they don't need the gold you get in lane, and assist in getting kills (you are rewarded for assists not just kills). Minions spawn in lane every 30 seconds and act as a way to farm up gold from a way other than killing people. There are 2 big minions on the map, Dragon, and Baron Nashor. Dragon gives everyone on your team 190 gold for killing it, and it respawns every 6 minutes. Baron gives everyone on your team 300 gold and a buff which increases attack damage, ability power, Health regen, and slight mana regen. It respawns every 7 minutes and doesnt spawn until 15 minutes into the game. Now theres a lot of other things that go into the game, but they're really learn as you play type things. I hope my explanation helped some!

Wow. looks complicated. But I learn quick, so if I try I'll probably get the hang of it. Yeah it looks interesting. I guess I'll have to try it out in the summer. :P

Yeah it does sound complicated because there are a lot of different things that make up the game, but its so fast paced that it really isn't as complicated as it sounds. It's easier to get the hang of than DotA2

I haven't played in awhile, I'd need to check what my name thing is.
I played awhile ago, but was pretty confused about the whole inner workings of things.
I'd usually just pick the coolest looking person and go in and try to bash on people. I had learned a little more strategy, but I'm still terrible at it haha

I have been considering getting back into it lately tbh!
It's either that or minecraft. :P
I almost feel like I need a better computer to play LoL. I play on my laptop, but I think it lags too much sometimes -shrug-

Just close everytime, and umm... thats about it. Some characters are just plain bad. Youll learn.
