Old League of Legends Thread

[tol]

The most popular eSports League in North America and Europe has selected League of Legends as one of 3 titles they will feature in 2011 in their highest level of competition. Today the Electronic Sports League (ESL) announced that they had selected one new title to join Starcraft 2 and Counter-Strike in the Intel Extreme Masters Series - your very own League of Legends.

We are honored to be placed in the top tier of eSports gaming, but the credit goes to the fans who have made League of Legends one of the most popular eSport titles in the world. Alongside the WCG (World Cyber Games) naming LoL an official title and the Season One Championship breaking viewership records, we are humbled to see League of Legends so widely recognized as a premier eSport title

Can we seperate NA/EU on the list? I know Fallenxi is EU, and I'm EU as well ( Gryffes is my summoner name also ).

[Meian]

By EU you should mention you're playing on EU server. I know several EU that play on US server because of how terribad theirs is.

Question: Why is Janna considered the best support?

*flamesuit on*

I think today's metagame has Sona as the better one (her aoe heals and that ult of hers). Janna is still very good with her knock-up tornados and her ult that can potentially end fights and save lives. Her shield is like a B.F Sword for free on her target too.

[Gryffes]

I feel pretty strongly that Soraka is the best support, and by a long way.

It's a lot easier to see the effects on a teamfight of a cluch Janna/Sona ult though.

[SilverBreeze]

I wish Karma would get some kind of love. She's strong but she doesn't really have a place where as the other supports do, and she's my favorite to play : (

[Gryffes]

Zilean/Kayle struggle for spots on the support roster as well, current metagame doesn't suit some of them at all.

[Nama]

Would love to see more karma around shes very deceptive champ and can deal alot more damage then people suspect. Unfortunately her Ult or lack there of hurts her if she could have more then 2 charges at a time it would help. I think someone also mathed it out awhile back that her lv6 shield is actually weaker then Janna's lv5 shield which is pretty lame. Kayle is getting some love in the future so she might be better soon and Zilean is close but not quite there in usefulness.

Team BG+1 rolled over this group:

[Gryffes]

For a 35 min game, that's some goddamn LOW creep count.

[aduidarnenye]

For a 35 min game, that's some goddamn LOW creep count.

For me? I rarely go about 35-40 for creep kills. I avoid it so the carry can get em.

[Nama]

get me in that action~

[tol]

I also feel very strongly that Soraka is the best or at least in very high contention support in the game. She is a beast.
