[MOBA]League of Legends. Come play with me!

Man, it's been a while since I've been here.

So, League of Legends is an online multiplayer game similar to Defense of the Ancients/Heroes of Newerth. For those unfamiliar with the genre, gameplay consists of two teams of 5 players - each playing as a different champion with a unique set of special abilities - battling each other. It's extremely strategic, with fast-paced action and careful positioning. The game is patched every two weeks to attempt to balance it. It's far from well balanced but every hero (hero and champion are used interchangeably) can be successfully played at almost any level of play. Except maybe Tryndamere.

The game is fast-paced and team oriented. If you can find four friends to play with, you will enjoy it much more than playing by yourself. It can be extremely confusing for new players, especially since there are now almost 60 champions in the game, so

The actual gameplay is nothing like this, but it's cool anyways.

Feel free to PM me or message me ingame if you have any questions! It REALLY helps to have someone explain the basic strategy BEFORE you start playing.

Ok, remembered to grab 3 screenshots near the end of an intense back-and-forth game.

Played this before. I liked DotA on WC3 but was never great at it.

I installed the game, played two games and stopped, then proceeded to uninstall it.

Not my cup of tea, but an interesting and definitely great team game.

I leave and come back, kinda like a ghost. Hmm...

I don't play this very much, but I can say that it is quite fun. And it's free, so no harm in giving it a try!
