League of Legends (LoL) has been around since 2009 and has gone through plenty of iterations, champion updates and eSport events. With plenty of websites for builds, strategies and videos to tell you what to do, it can feel daunting when first starting out or even wanting to improve. The wealth of knowledge can both be a help. but also act to scare off newcomers to getting into LoL . LoL has come from a niche game to being one of the major competitors in eSports, with dozens of teams going head to head in tournaments, with several voices calling it a real sport or even trying to get it into the Olympics. Besides the tournaments and events held outside of your house, the ranked community of LoL is huge, paving the way for newer games like Overwatch . Getting your foot into that community can be hard however, from other players expecting a certain degree of skill from you or simply being too toxic to accept you. This short guide of 15 steps to becoming a better LoL player aims to help those looking for a fresh start, as well as those with an already established love for the game. While everyone does learn differently, with several different techniques, the steps below should hopefully be straightforward and easy to do. Grab your Mountain Dew and snacks, it’s time to enter the Summoner's Rift! 15 Start By Picking a Single Champion :I captured this screenshot myself while playing the game Like any game that gives a choice of Class, Race or speciality, picking one and mastering it is the way to go. Every match you play with a champion is another 30 minutes or so you are training with them, learning their skills, cooldowns, damage and speed, along with some good item builds to go along with both their statistics and your playstyle. The best way to start off with this is in practice mode as there won’t be any other players shouting you down for trying out new things. With over 130 champions on offer it can seem like a huge number, but can be narrowed down for the style of play you have. If you wanting to be an AD Carry that number jumps down to the 20s, Jungle champions around the 40s. It is all well and good choosing a champion that is cool, but plenty of the champions on offer either never got buffed or simple don’t fit the current Meta. 14 Practice Last Hitting and CS :I captured this screenshot myself while playing the game Last hitting is exactly what it says on the tin, when you hit a minion and it dies, giving you gold and experience. CS means Creep Score, or minion kills and is often referred to as such, and will carry your champion through the earlier parts of the game, mostly applying to players in the lanes rather than Junglers. Again the best place to practice this is in practice mode to start off with, seeing how many normal attacks, spells only or other attacks it takes to kill a minion or what can kill a minion on what percentage of health. Moving onto Bot or PvP games is where your training will show, as out killing your lane opponent will allow you to both push the lane, meaning their tower gets the kills on your minions, or leaving their champion without backup to allow you a free shot or two. You should always keep in mind if your Jungler or teammate asks you to pull back on CS, to allow for a group attack however. 13 Learn About Wards :I captured this screenshot myself while playing the game Wards are what give you and your team vision over the map, revealing parts of the map that are hidden by the fog of war. There are a few types of wards along with totems but the best way to find the ward for you and the situation is to play while using them. Stealth wards give you three separate wards that fade over time, while visions wards are single use but last until destroyed. Besides learning the different wards and their proper use, you should also practice and learn the distance you can place them, the best places to put them and how to throw them over barriers. If you get close enough to a wall, you can almost always throw it to the other side of the wall and this is commonly done in the middle lane to ward the bushes on either side of the river. 12 Trade and Harass via: kojilollook.blogspot.co.uk Rather than harassing your team, you should harass the champions, by trading attacks with them or dealing damage to push them out of their lane. To successfully trade, you will want to hit your target for as much damage while taking the least amount of damage yourself. Lane harassing is when you "trade" damage but receive none in return, essentially bullying the enemy into a weaker position as you deny them CS. However, if you’re facing a champion that can heal over time or that has higher defence than you, you might want to focus on the CS rather than trading, unless you can communicate with your Jungler. 11 Learn the Positions via: aminoapps.com You’ll often get told to go a certain place or lane; Top, Mid or Bot for the lanes or Blue/Red for the jungle buffs. These are often rather simple to learn as their position doesn’t change per match, per season, or update to the game, so once you learn these, you should be set for life in LoL . Besides learning where these places are, you should also learn what they mean for the team and you and your champion. Certain champions are better in the lanes, while others may seem unorthodox. but can be great if played by great players. Junglers will often call to their allies or have their allies ask for the Red or Blue buffs to help their lane or engagements with their opponents. You should read the buffs and understand if they will help your character before asking for it. 10 Memorize the Map :I captured this screenshot myself while playing the game Similarly to learning positions, the map hasn’t changed much over the years, only really improving the graphics and [https://WWW.Mobanewshub.com/ www.Mobanewshub.com] design. So once you’ve learnt the map, once again, you should be set for life. The map has several important locations, aside from Red/Blue buff and the lanes. The bushes dotted around provide you with stealth against the enemy team and often contain their wards, so you should try to find those and destroy them. Late game bosses also spawn in the forms of the drake, which gives a buff depending on the amount of them killed, along with gold, and Baron Nashor which gives a temporary buff to all alive players that is usually used to steam roll the opposing team. With monsters and bushes in mind, you should also learn the proper escape routes to take when running from single or multiple opponents, drawing them towards a prime counterattack position or merely avoiding their Jungler. 9 Learn the Jungle (Even if You’re Not a Jungler) Via: thescoreesports.com A Jungler is a player who plays mostly within the jungle of the map, focusing on the wolves, golems and buff monsters that live within it. As they gain experience and items, they will start to ambush your lanes, either to help you or to attack you if you’re on opposing teams. This form of ganking is very common, especially in mid-lane. Learning proper routes of the jungle is important, as there are a few different ways to go about approaching the jungle. Each champion may have a preferred starting buff or side, as well as asking for assistance on the first mob of the game. While the Jungler should know the jungle like the back of their hand, you should also learn the basics - even if you’re not a Jungler. You should know where buffs are, if you can take a monster and where to hide if the enemy Jungler is prowling around. 8 Find a Consistent Group Via: dotesports.com/ Like any team [https://WWW.Mobanewshub.com/ MOBA game builds], a consistent group of players is almost a necessity. Besides being able to keep a consistent roster of characters, the bickering among friends rarely progresses to the point where people leave, as the composition is stronger. Since the game is free, you can simply ask some friends to start with you or hop in a game or two. Don’t be afraid to talk to your team in random play too, as some great teams form through random games. Once your team is formed, you can organize 1v1s and 2v2s to practice single or team fights. In a solid group, you won't only play against others, you can train one another more effectively than in practice or Bot modes. As you play in a group more often, you will also learn to combine tactics and work together more efficiently, making you better in the progress. 7 Keep Calm and Carry On Via: dailymotion.com One of the worst things you can do in a team game is get angry. The LoL community is toxic enough as it is, so if someone makes a mistake or rubs you the wrong way, just tell them constructively. Shouting down the mic or mad typing not only takes time away from the [https://WWW.Mobanewshub.com/ MOBA game guide] but it also messes up everyone’s concentration on the game. The same applies to a situation where you’re the one getting yelled at in the game. Instead of shouting back or ignoring them, let them know if you’re trying something new or made a mistake. A lot of the time you can diffuse a situation before it gets too heated, while other times the player is just an idiot who wants to vent about their own failures. At the end of the day, it’s just a game and yelling won’t get anything done. 6 Learn Who Counters You and What You Counter Via: http://na.leagueoflegends.com As you continue to play matches, grow closer in your group and level up, you will notice that certain champions do better against you or you often are on the losing end of trades. This can come down to the opponents skill, but it can also mean their champion counters yours, either by having higher defence to nullify your attack or outputting abilities that make your own pointless. With the wealth of sites for builds and information, you can find a full list of your counters. The same also applies to your opponent, as your champion could be greatly suited to shutting down another and you should also find who you counter. As you continue to play and branch into other champions, you will be able to counter pick enemy teams which can upset the balance of power greatly. If you are facing a counter, make sure to let your Jungler know, so he can throw more help your way. 5 Memorize Champion Abilities and Cooldowns :I captured this screenshot myself while playing the game By now, you would have played a few games, both in practice mode and vs real players. You should have noticed that every champion has different abilities, cooldowns, damage and reach, and you should learn these. While it might seem daunting at first, with over 130 enemies to face, that number quickly drops when it comes to PvP and ranked, as not every champion is played. Simply ask your teammates or look only for "popular" champions. Once you’ve got the roster down, start to read their abilities and understand how they affect your champion. Will damage over time abilities make trading harder for you? Does that champion have a reflect ability? How long until that ability locks you in place again? All of this knowledge will prove essential at higher level play, especially if you suspect a gank is on the way. 4 Perfect Your Build Via: www.redbull.com Not only is your own skill a contributing factor, but your items, runes, and masteries are also valuable things to keep in mind. These will differ somewhat on your own playstyle, if you prefer to harass more than team fight, but also change depending on where you play and who you face. A good default build is a great starting point, buying runes that boost your main attacks and defences to masteries that aid your ability cooldowns or style of play. There are quite a few defaults online that can apply to several champions at once, so it is a good idea to read up on these. Like a champion, your runes and masteries can also with countering an enemy, as if your opponent is more attack focused, you might want some more gear focused to defence or if the enemy has a lower health pool, you might want higher damage to harass easier. 3 Create Item Kits and Setups :I captured this screenshot myself while playing the game Following on from the previous point, you should setup Item Kits to quickly buy items at the start and during the match. Being able to click on your items within a second can save a teammate's live if they're in need of assistance. You used to easily be able to setup Item Sets, but that feature wasn’t used enough and was ditched, but can still be accessed if you use the earlier launcher. If you don’t want to use Item Kits, you should still keep a mental note of different kits. LoL is all about adapting to the battlefield, your runes and masteries might be setup for Mid lane, but if you’re called to swap lanes or face a champion that pushes you out, you need to be able to adjust and win. The same goes for items, but these can be easily changed mid-game, though sometimes at a loss of gold and time. 2 Watch Pro Streams and Events Via: www.pcgamer.com The best advice anyone can give when attempting to join in any sport or competitive scene is to watch the professionals and learn from the best. Find a player who has your champion in their rotation, or mains them, learn their item setups, runes, masteries, and how they play and you might learn a thing or two. Maybe you can combine your attacks with another champion or there is a hidden counter. Besides learning your own champion, you can also see how other champions are played, as well as learning maps, items, cooldowns and other player tactics. While you don’t necessarily need to take notes, watching other people play can give you amazing insight into your enemies and own teammates. If you’re not a fan of watching other people play, you can instead read up on the pro team’s style of training and warmups to improve your own. 1 Repeat all 14 Steps When the Meta or Season Changes Via: lolgui.blogspot.co.uk LoL is an ever changing game, from new champions being added, items getting altered or removed, champions getting buffed or nerfed and more. You should always keep an eye and ear towards the news and talk amongst players. With any change, you might see a champion being used more often or your counters getting weaker or stronger, and you should adjust to suit that. Going back over the previous steps, you might see a change. Maybe you do less damage, so you need to trainr you CS. Maybe someone’s ability became a reach attackm so your trades will be harder or that go-to item you loved is now gone and you need a replacement. Even if nothing comes out in the news, the Meta can change randomly, either by a pro player talking about a new strategy or team formation. Be prepared for change.

15 Ways League Of Legends Is WORSE Than Heroes Of The Storm

The first time I came across the nascent modification to _ Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos _ that would eventually become the template for all MOBAs to come I was in my first year of college. _ Warcraft III _ hit my dorm like a bomb, and I know more than one student who dropped out to pursue a life of gaming (much to their parent’s chagrin). Then _ Defence of the Ancients _ came out, and it was like that bomb never went off at all and was merely biding its time to truly cause mayhem. Assignments were forgotten. Midterms were missed. Some students stopped leaving their rooms, never to be seen again. To this day there are ghost stories of long lost undergrads, roaming the halls in search of food they’d forgotten to eat in life. Fast forward a decade and a half and MOBAs (Multiplayer Online Battle Arenas for those not in the know) aren’t just killing academic careers - they’re at the very forefront of E-sports. All the biggest stables, like Fnatic, Team Liquid, and Cloud 9, all field teams that play in _ League of Legends _ , the biggest MOBA of them all. While Blizzard (the makers of _ Warcraft III _ ) had their hand in giving birth to MOBAs as a genre, they’ve been strangely behind the times while MOBAs took the E-sports world by storm. It wasn’t until 2015, with the release of _ Heroes of the Storm _ ( _ HotS _ for short), that Blizzard took these multiplayer battle arenas seriously enough to warrant a game of their own. And while _ League of Legends _ (or _ LoL _ for short) is still top dog, it has a lot to learn from Blizzard’s upstart [https://www.mobanewshub.com/ MOBA game DLC]. Here are 15 ways _ League of Legends _ is worse than _ Heroes Of The Storm _ . 15 A Toxic Community via Kotaku _ League of Legends _ is a big deal. At peak periods there can be over 7 million players on Riot’s servers. Having this many gamers playing at once can make policing player behaviour a little tricky. The result is a community that is famous for its snark, saltiness and general unfriendliness to new players - and that’s putting it lightly. _ Heroes of the Storm _ , on the other hand, is managed by Blizzard, who take player experience very seriously. Not only is there a swear filter and a 'report player' feature that can get a player banned for such infractions as griefing, but in _ HotS, _ each team doesn’t even have the option to speak to their opposite in competitive matches. It’s hard to spew toxic vitriol when you can’t get through to the enemy team. 14 No Map Variations via Heroes Of The Storm _ League of Legends _ is also pretty famous for having a serious lack of map variety. _ LoL _ has one map, Summoner’s Rift, and if you don’t like it, that’s too bad. Go find another game. _ Heroes of the Storm _ , on the other hand, has a colossal _ thirteen _ maps, each meticulously balanced to give each team a fair chance at victory. Each map has its own variations in terms of size, lane separation, and jungle encampments (called mercenary camps in _ HotS _ ) that all feel very different, making each game fresh and exciting. This variation also makes certain heroes more attractive to play on certain maps. You may want to opt for global presence of Dehaka on larger maps, allowing you to quickly be where your team needs you during team-fights, no matter how far you wander. Or on maps with tighter lanes, you may go for a slower assassin like Valeera, who can roam around to get quick kills on unwary players. 13 Lack of Map Objectives via Gamespot On Summoner’s Rift, the objective is always the same - kill your opponents, push down their turrets, and then blow up their nexus. Just like the map itself, it’s the same game every time. In _ Heroes of the Storm _ , things are a lot more interesting. Sure, there’s always the benefit of killing your opponents in giving your team experience, while depriving the other team of a crucial defender, but if you happen to be on the losing end of this scenario there’s usually an option besides killing your opponents to secure a victory. Each map will have its own objective, and if you can secure that objective before the enemy does it can lead to a massive, potentially game-changing advantage. 12 No Bots! via LeagueOfLegends.com "Bots?" You ask, "How can AI controlled bots be a good thing?" Don’t get me wrong, human controlled players are usually best to play against in competitive games, but there are a few cases where having a bot can be a great thing. Let’s take the issue of leavers. In _ League of Legends _ if somebody leaves their character sits there like a lump and does absolutely nothing. In _ Heroes of the Storm _ if a player leaves then their hero is taken over by computer AI and continues to fight. The AI isn’t perfect, and it won’t respond the same way a human player would in any given situation, but it’s a lot better than being a man down just because some jerk decided that their house burning down was more important than their _ LoL _ game. _ League _ is in the process of developing computer AI for players to play against, but they’re still in the early alpha stages and are a long way off from having the same kind of extensive bots that _ HotS _ has. 11 XP Is Shared via gamingcfq.com This one is sure to get me some angry emails from _ LoL _ purists, but the fact that experience gained isn’t shared among the team can warp games into bizarre scenarios where one player is level 10 while the rest of the team is level 6, or even lower. It can be terribly disheartening to be playing a tank like Rammus, or a support like Janna, the best they’ve ever been played and still be down in experience compared to the more damage oriented champions. In _ HotS _ experience is shared between the whole team, making each player on that team the same level as the next. If every member of the team is playing well, then the team’s level will reflect that, making every role important whether or not that role is particularly great at farming experience or not. 10 Carry Roles Suck via aminoapps.com Along with not having experience shared is another bizarre aspect of a team-based game - the carry role. _ League of Legends _ can reward a team that puts all their eggs in one basket, giving a champion with a high damage potential and the right item build the ability to completely dominate the late-game and "carry" their team to victory. The carry will inevitably end the game with much larger experience, and also tends to get a massively inflated ego while doing it. Once again, _ HotS _ doesn’t have this problem due to the shared experience. There are certainly heroes that have a more potent role early on, or are more effective in the late game, but the role of the damage dealer is no more or less important than any other role on the team. Likewise, this helps to keep egos more in check in the Blizzard MOBA. 9 Character Balance via stillglass.deviantart.com There’s one thing I will always give _ League _ over _ HotS: _ they have a massive roster of champions. At 134 and growing, players have way more selection in _ League _ to pick a champion that best fits their playstyle. That massive roster has its downsides, as it’s nearly impossible to balance a game with that many characters. Of the 134 champions available, only 23 see pick rates above 10% in competitive matches. That’s less than 20% of the roster being considered viable. _ Heroes _ may have a much smaller roster, but the developers clearly care more about making each one of them viable with the number of patches they release. Of the 64 heroes available, 43 have a pick rate higher than 10% in competitive games - that’s fully two-thirds of the hero roster, and way more than can be found in _ League of Legends _ . 8 Who’s Who? via Heroes of the Storm.com That massive champion roster can be pretty hard to keep track of not just for the developers, but also for the players. Remembering what each of the 134 champions can do is a huge barrier for new players who can easily be ganked by a champion they’ve never seen before. A smaller roster, like one found in _ Heroes of the Storm _ , makes it much easier to remember what your opponent can do, making it much better experience for new players. Not only that, but each hero is taken from previous Blizzard titles like _ Overwatch _ or _ World of Warcraft _ , giving each character a powerful, built-in backstory for a new player to identify with. That’s not to say there isn’t a backstory for League champions. It’s there, you just have to dig for it. 7 Games Are Too Damned Long via LeagueMath.com There’s a reason why the majority of my gaming is done as a single player - I need a pause button. My life rarely goes longer than 15-20 minutes before my dog starts puking or something catches fire and needs my immediate attention. In _ League of Legends _ , the average game lasts over half an hour, which is just too much time for me to invest. Some games can even go on into hour long odysseys that defy logic and explanation. _ Heroes of the Storm _ doesn’t have that problem. If one team is getting particularly stomped, games can be over in as little as 10 minutes. Most games last about 20 minutes, with only the rare match reaching the 30-minute mark. This makes it much easier for me to put out the kitchen fire and still be back in time for my next game. 6 So Many Items! via League of Legends.com I want you to guess how many items there are in _ League of Legends _ . Go ahead - throw out a number! If you guessed 221, then you cheated and went to the _ League of Legends _ website just like I did. If 134 champions is too many to keep track of then, 221 items is also going to be a headache. I’ll cop to the fact that _ LoL _ does have an item suggestion prompt that gives new players a handy tip as to what item they should be purchasing, but the fact that such a feature is even necessary is not something to applaud. In _ HotS _ , item purchases are simple: there aren’t any. That’s right - not a single item can be purchased in game. Instead, _ Heroes of the Storm _ uses a talent based system to give each character some build diversity that would normally be provided by items. It’s a lot simpler to understand and doesn’t require the player to leave the game for a moment to go buy stuff. 5 Comeback Mechanics! via youtube.com/user/canastaR18 Everyone loves a good comeback. I’m not talking about taunts or verbal barbs - I’m talkin’ about the underdog rising up from a losing scenario to snatch victory from the jaws of certain defeat. Both games certainly have mechanics baked in that allow for one team to come back from a stomping, but how they do it differs. Whereas _ HotS _ has a system that exponentially provides less experience the further down the opposing team is in terms of levels (until even hero kills are worth less experience than killing a mere minion), _ LoL _ has a cap at 20% experience for each champion kill achieved. When you’re behind the entire game, that 20% cap can feel like an insurmountable cliff. Farming the opposing team for kills is always worthwhile in _ League _ , making a comeback far less likely. 4 Last Hits Are Dumb! via ELOHell.net When _ Defense of the Ancients _ was first inventing the MOBA genre, the only way to get experience or gold was to be the last guy putting damage on something to secure the kill. If you missed your attack and some minion stole your kill, you get nothing even if you did 99% of the damage. Thus the concept of "last hit" was born, and remained a staple of the genre for a long time. Eventually, players and developers alike realized this last hit business was stupid and changed things so that simply being present when a minion expires nets you that sweet, sweet XP. However, in _ League _ an artifact of the last hit era remained in gold farming. If you’re not the last thing hitting a minion,you get no gold, and that’s dumb. As you likely have already guessed, _ HotS _ doesn’t have this problem because there’s no gold (at least, not in a match - there is gold to buy heroes, but that’s done in menus). You don’t even need to be the agent of destruction in order to ensure your team keeps accruing experience. In fact, certain heroes specialize in this behaviour, which is super weird. More on that later. 3 Team Fights Are Fun! via PixelDynamo.com There’s no question that the most exciting part of any [https://www.mobanewshub.com/ Moba News Hub] experience is the team fights. When all 5 players on a team come together and let loose, it’s like watching a fireworks display that eventually leads to a lot of dead players. Sort of like Victoria Day in my high school years. One game has way more team fights than the other, and that’s _ Heroes of the Storm _ . In _ HotS _ maps usually, have objectives that will bring teams into conflict within the first 5 minutes. _ League _ doesn’t have that, and it’s even possible to have entire games where the only kills are solo-lane ganks that eventually result in death timers so long there isn’t even a climactic final battle at the enemy’s core. That’s almost as disappointing as a Victoria Day without a fatality. 2 Hero Variation via gosugamers.net I know I kinda go back to this a lot, but with 134 champions it can not only be hard to balance them all, but it can also be hard to make them unique. A lot of _ League _ heroes tend to blend together, with only a slight variations to give them some originality. By comparison, _ HotS _ seems like a cultural melting pot of play styles, each with their own set of unique abilities. There’s also some truly bonkers heroes, like Abathur who never actually engages in direct combat, or Cho’Gall, the two headed ogre that is literally two players in one body. Or how about The Lost Vikings who’re like trying to play three tiny heroes at once? The innovation seen in _ Heroes of the Storm _ leaves _ LoL _ in the dust. 1 The Early Game Sucks via League of Legends.com Let’s go over the first 5 minutes of every _ League _ game: I waddle to my lane, micromanage my dude to get that all important last hit to farm gold, and I make sure I don’t push too close to a turret. Ho-hum. Let’s do the same thing for Heroes of the Storm. I press z to mount my horse (so I can get to my lane quickly), and now I have to worry about a stealth characters ganking me while I push my lane up to the enemy tower to try and exhaust it before the object appears. Here's the best part: when that objective does appear I have to be ready for a team fight. Which one sounds more exciting to you? I thought so.
