Welcome in, gamers! To the mind-bending, champion-selecting, turret-destroying world of League of Legends. The first sentence is always the hardest. Is it not? This week, I ran across an intriguing online discussion that had both beginners and pros stoked. Nothing fires up gamers like a good debate about their favourite MOBA, League of Legends.
Summary
- The discussion swirled around strategies on picking new champions and how hero attributes stack up in the current meta.
- Users expressed a sense of a steep learning curve, especially when returning to the game after a hiatus.
- Several comments threw light onto the debate whether the game’s ranking and matchmaking system is fair or skewed.
The Curiosity of an Old Player
Returning player Lindzei_ states “I’ve played this game up until 2014… game feels extremely punishing and hard to play now.” A sentiment synonymous with many a returning player, underlining how the game has evolved and leveled up over time. I’ve often heard that LoL now feels like a different beast, far more strategic and challenging play-wise. It’s all a process, Lindzei. I suggest easing back into the fray and getting used to the new nuances. Patience, young Grasshopper.
Champions : The Heart of LoL
reddit_le_bad, exasperated, says, “im looking for a new champ… suggestions would be greatly appreciated.” And isn’t that a sentiment we can all get behind? Every champ brings unique abilities, style, and proclivity to the frenzied battlefield. The satisfaction of choosing the right champion and leading your team to victory, cannot be equated to anything. So, dear LoL players, let’s help our comrade in arms. Ideas on a postcard or a friendly comment?
The Bane of Matchmaking
Ah, matchmaking… The supporter MaBel-_-l puzzles, “what’s the actual chance… people lose on purpose”. The fact that several players feel the same, makes us ponder if it’s a definitive pattern. The entire point of gaming is to have an exciting, balanced gaming experience, after all. A broken matchmaking algorithm might just be the cocoon our butterfly of victory is trapped in.
From pro tips to solving gaming mysteries, our gamers outdo themselves every week with interesting insights, and hilarious banter; the community stays vibrant because of the knowledge exchange. So until next week, remember, Romans did not build a day in Rome. Or something like that. Keep gaming!
