This One Made Me Laugh

Posted on by

I don’t play Garen. His dialogue in game annoys me to the point of pain. Just can’t do it. Only bought him because my tween wanted to buy Lux and, well, Garen is her brother, and we enjoyed a few fun sister and brother matches before he tired of Lux and another champ captured his fancy. Seriously…can’t…do it. I actually stopped playing MF for a long time because her maniacal laugh during Make It Rain just drove me insane. I got over it with MF and love playing her, but could never make it happen with through-and-through Demacian Garen.

That being said, still found this Garen comic quite amusing. I am also a sucker for Viso-like flow charts.

Kill Me Now

Say it isn’t so? Oh bleepity bleep argh!! How is it that I didn’t realize that the cool silver and gold and jewel-encrusted summoner frames were only Season 2 rewards? I sure hope that forum post was malarcky (how DO you spell that word?) but it rings true. Now don’t get me wrong, I still want to go silver in Dominion but I really, really, really, really wanted that pretty silver frame *big pout*. I think I’ll cry now.

4 More To Go

Posted on by

After a loss I just snagged a win! WOOT! Played Riven both times (with her boss Season 2 Champion skin). Had been a long time since I’d played her and had to remember her E shield n dash. Did much better on the second go. I’m now down to just 4 more wins for silver. Proly a lame achievement by many gamers’ standards but for me, I am totally stoked.

Why I Luv LoL

Posted on by

A hard question to answer as there is so much to say. Fast-paced action, an amazing amount of variability in game play with a small and manageable number of abilities, gorgeous graphics and skins, oodles of champions to play and aquire, the chance to connect with my tweener, and so much more. For me as a busy mom, having a game that I can jump in and out of but still have an ongoing relationship with is huge. While I still adore MMORPG’s, I am finding that I cannot maintain my interest over time like I have been able to with LoL. Riot Games, you guys totally rock. Thank you, thank you!

Quick Game with Cass

Given I have limited time, went for Classic Bots as the queue is always super short and the games reliably last only 20 mins or so. Picked Cassiopeia and am decked out in the Jade Fang Lunar Revel skin. So, so happy.

Me Time

Posted on by

So the young one is in bed, the oldest reading until lights out, and time for Mom to squeeze in a game of League. Woot! Gaming is my escape and I’ve been falling asleep at night rather than stay up and play. Not good for my overall mental and emotional health. Seriously.

Five Wins to Silver!

Posted on by

Have snagged a coupla Dominion PvP wins in a row thanks to good, cohesive teams. My play has been at best average, which is disappointing, but I am 5 wins away from Silver!!

Will I get the wicked Silver frame?? Or do I have to have Silver in both Classic & Dominion??

Waiting in Queue

Posted on by

So never did play Zyra. Have waited in queue for Dominion PvP matches. Now only 6 wins away!!! Hoping this is a good one. Rather than play MF, going with Irelia. Gotta remember her true damage by activating W.

Zyra

Had loaded my account with RP for the Lunar Revel skin sale and immediately went to the store just now post a patch and Zyra was on sale! Only 3 gal champs left now and I am definitely jumping into a Classic Bots match to try her out. Woohoo!
