Current Meta

In  LoL the current Meta is a huge role in what people play. For example, last season the meta was all about the tanky champions.  This current meta the jungle plays a huge role in deciding the meta. right now we are all about the assassins. How is the Meta decided? Everytime Riot creates a new patch/ change the meta could change. This season the Meta had changed because the creators buffed the jungle and support allowing the to gain gold easier. Riot is always trying to balance the game out. Last season they took a look at supports and junglers and saw they never reached their late game goals since they always soaked up gold to buy wards. So this is a good thing Meta changing means the game is evolving.

Vindictus

Taking a break from League of Legends I have rerouted to a game I have previously loved yet have not played for a while. Vindictus has been a huge money guzzler for me in the past. I have spent over 3,000$ in virtual items throughout my lifetime. On Vindictus I have spent at least 1,000$. What makes the game so fun? I would have to say its revolutionary hack n slash playstyle. It was the first of its kind. Able to destroy mostly anything in the dungeon. The game itself is quite old if I have to recall it is over 6 years old. Not to surprising the game originated in Korea. The fun new revolutionary games comes mainly from Asia. Blade and Soul , Tera they all came from Asia then were imported here in the states.

Less about the background and more to the main concern  I almost lost the account I made back when the game first released . The email I used was deleted so there was no way to retrieve the password or any of the account information.So I had to take a chance and message Nexon support to see if there was someway to retrieve my account. all it took was a picture id and some account information and my Evie is back with me. I guess i came out lucky this time.

Beta Test Servers

This week I shall talk about a different aspect of League of Legends the Beta Test Servers. These Servers allow the public to test New champions and changes that Riot feels should be implemented in the live version of the game. Why is this a good thing? For starters, the public can give feedback to Riot on what changes or new in game features work well and what plain out stinks. New champions are able to get some tweaking before entering live servers. And a new feature being tested is Team Builder, Team builder allows people to pick their roles before entering champion select. Before, we would go in blind not knowing what roles we would get placed in. Even if the person called the position first most likely who ever is first to pick gets a say in what they want.

Ganking

In the current meta in League of Legends there is usually two solo lanes top and mid, and also a bottom lane which consists of the AD Carry and Support. There is also a role which is not a lane but a jungle position. This lanes main objective is to counter jungle or gank lanes to support and assist in killing enemy champions. A sign of a good jungler is knowing when and how to gank lanes. Also a jungler will have a knowledge of where to be when an objective is to be taken. When we take a look at theOddOne he has very good objective timing. If say dragon were about to respawn you would not see him in the top lane, he would probably be in the lower half of the map. Objective control is one of the key aspects to winning the game in League of Legends not only does it give you gold, if say a turret was destroyed it would give map pressure. Overall jungle is one of the most important positions in the game. Jungle can give a bad lane an upper hand.
