Nuwen = gleighn
Fate = Fallen Daemon
NA & EU-W
We're mostly scrubs floating @ gold elo. Sometimes we spark a bowl and decide to build TTTs (Turbo Tiamat Teemos AKA lulz builds).
If you're serious about grinding the elo ladder, you'll need to be patient and realize that 4x randoms are just meat shields for you. Play a hero that efficiently spends gold (ADC, hyperbruiser top like Irelia or Olaf, etc) and take the first 10-15 minutes to farm strong and hard. Aim to have ~100 cs (approximately 5/6 each wave, not too hard if you practice practice practice) by 10 minutes, spend, and then start pinging group objectives with your team.
If you can't get your hands on a carry for a given game, don't ragequit or turn your brain off. Pick a hero with strong, low-cooldown CC. Throw your bankroll at VISION, AEGIS, and do whatever you can to keep the carries safe & positive-minded.
Wards are cheap and unlimited
in LoL, so abuse them. The treeline is immutable so the river can ALWAYS be controlled for 300g/3 minutes (4 wards). If your wards control key vision areas, you'll see opponents' ward placement. Skirt around their eyes with your CC buttons and say hi2u. Place wards optimally: http://s1102.photobucket.com/user/AwwGa ... t=3&page=1 - the SIEGE wards are especially important to turn your lead into victory. The base space in LoL is narrow and the towers are more vicious than DoTA. Ward over the wall and /giggle at bad people who walk into your CC and die.
Never have downtime. LoL/DoTA give you a lot of opportunities to spend your time as a travel tourist. Read your opponents and use vision to predict their movements, so you always know where to be ahead of time. Avoid falling into the responsive trap; don't follow your enemies around the map.
Instead, push out lanes safely and ping initiates when an opponent breaks off to respond to YOU. Keep track of enemy teamfight cooldowns and neutral spawns (buffs spawn every 3 min, Dragon 6, Rosh 8 ) in chat so your team knows when an initiate is a tarp.
Even BM people are playing to win at first. Stay flexible so the one-trick ponies aren't forced to do something they're bad at or don't want to do.
