After long absence

I haven't posted anything here for about three weeks. Sorry for that, I was moving.

But now back, with interesting stuff:
I have dropped learning Caitlyn for the moment and started looking into other roles.

• Support: The first one was Soraka in a support role. This is what Soraka is mostly known for. She is a great support and the build suggestions are not too bad if you do play support.
  BUT after a few good matches with her in that role I wanted to try her as AP and you may not believe that but she is great and does a good deal of damage with her Q if you level it early and buy items for Magic Resist and Ability Power. Sounds like it's not much but you would be surprised! If play her well, you stay in lane and even in teamfights very long. I usually chose Flash and Heal for the D and F buttons which means that over all I have 3 heals! Flash to get out of or into range. So in a teamfight, given that you aren't out of position, you last, keep yourself and even the whole team alive and do a good amount of damage in addition. Here is a guide on Soraka in the AP role.

• Jungle: The second thing that I tried was Nunu for Jungling. Now this was a very interesting experience. I found that it is really difficult to keep up with the leveling if all you do is jungle. A lot of times you go for a gank or the jungle monsters. Not a lot of XP, with Nunu's ult though not too bad. He needs a lot of Magic resist and health items as far as I see it.

• Last but not least: Of course I did not stop playing my favourite Ashe. Today I had my personal highscore on the EU West Server. 7 kills, 0 deaths, 11 assists. Here my screenshot.

Caitlyn here I come and a ks - rant

Yesterday I played two more matches with Ashe and won, therefore the five are complete.
So for 13.5 levels I have played Ashe almost exclusively. Right now I think she will remain my favourite but you never know.

I will now start playing Caitlyn until I know her well.
Right now I am watching videos on her game play, mostly with commentary so I understand the choices made. I like to be AD carry so I will try to do that with Caitlyn as well.

In general I found that the best matches are those where the team just works together and doesn't chat or curse the whole time. I like those most. You can just play and you know that your team will be there if you need them, and your team knows that you will be there when needed.
Haven't had too many of those but yesterday, one of the matches was exactly like that. It felt really good playing with that team.
As I am a moron, I did not add any of them to my list...


One thing I find highly annoying: "ks! fuck you, noob!"
I admit that some people might do it on purpose but I doubt that the majority of players is running around just trying to killsteal.
I will share the situation when I got this line:
A team"mate" being ganked.
I reach him as he is down to about 80 or so health. The two enemies who did the gank are both on about 500 health. I am Ashe, well fed, well built. I kill both enemies, my team"mate" does not die and our team gets the kills.
I don't care WHO did the kills, just as happy if someone else would have done them. But my team mate did not die, the enemy did.
I did not killsteal! I saved your ass, sucker!
