It's hard to find 4 other people that want to do ranked games sometimes.

[Rivero]

Well I didn't say it was easy, but IMO 5's with friends/people you know is probably the most fun you'll have playing LoL.

[Qeomash]

My group of friends and I play together often. Unfortunately, though, LoL also has a tendency to destroy said friendships.

LoL. I play w/ a friend that I duo queue with usually every night. We finally were able to get our main champs and rocked last night. He was jungle lee sin and I was irelia at top. I was vs Nasus and their jungler was olaf. So many attempted ganks from olaf that ended in failure. One even netted me a tower kill because I was at around 200HP and he was around 1/2 and he decided he wanted to fight. So I blade surged to him then stunned him under my tower. Woo free red buff. I was able to keep nasus in check once I hit level 5. He ended the game with 107 creep kills. We both ended up around 11-4

That is why I try to avoid having 5 of us total, as if you lose you feel inclined to blame someone... Having at least one other person is good enough for me, 3 being optimal I think. That's just my view though~

Also, Qeosmash doesn't like playing with me/us =(

Most of my irl friends only do ranked now, which is a little zz for me. Not many I know prefer Dominion over SR anymore. They have valid reasons but mine are just as well for why I do Dominion more often. We seem to do better as a team if we play Dominion than SR. Not sure why...

XD It's not that--it's that 90% of the time I'm on it's because I have RL friends on.

[Serif]

I generally hate playing with 5 people unless I know that the other people aren't taking the game that serious. Troll games is fine but when we lose because people are being idiots and they don't think they are makes me

[Dantrag]

Does anyone know how to replace skins with custom ones?

RAF Manager is the most stable one, get that and click the About and Simple Guide for really simple easy steps

[Fallyn]

So Graves looks and sounds awesome, I know I probably shouldn't given Riot's typical day-1-champs-are-crap mentality, but I'll probably pick him up asap.

[Loan]

I might make my first day one purchase with him as well.. I'm sure he'll suck, but he sounds fun..

now that sona has been free this week all i've noticed is that she is a shittier version of soraka anyone have any input on that? Am I just playing her wrong? her heals are worse and her damage is worse as well. (also it seems you can't hit people in bushes either)

Sona's power isn't in her damage output, or in her healing. It's the auras that she has in team fights. She's basically a baron buff for your team from the start. With sufficient CD reduction and MP5 you can spam all 3 songs all day long and keep all 3 auras up all the time. her ult is an AoE 2 second stun (amazing) with great AP scaling. She functions extremely well with very little gear, so she's a prime candidate for ward spamming. She's my favorite of the supports, she makes everything about your team better.

If you get her the two aura items then she' a walking fucking... aura...(sorry had nothing)

[supercoco]

which two auras would be the best to build?

[Dantrag]

Items or for her skills?

[Tonko]

He likely means items. I like Aegis early game, and then Soul Shroud later (the extra health and the CDR are quite nice)
I leave Starks or WotA for my carries.

[Dantrag]

What Tonko said, Aegis and Soul are basic "support" aura items.

[Rivero]

I personally think Soul Shroud is shit unless for some reason your entire team needs CDR and isn't building it for themselves. Aegis is good if you plan on having lots of team fights early game . Do not buy Aegis if you're planning on farming for 20-30mins and playing super passive, it's a bad purchase in that case.

Starks is an amazing buy if your team is heavy on AD (especially with lots of steroid champs like Warwick/GP/Sivir/etc). WotA is an amazing buy if your team is heavy on caster.

Aegis/SS are shit, but WotA/Starks are very nice. Just make sure you aren't neglecting your wards/gp5.
