LoL was fun while it lasted. I used to play it all day every day and got really good...unfortunately I found that the matchmaking was terrible and getting paired with bad players was what ruined the game for me and made me ragequit.

It's a great game if you're playing with friends. Very easy to play (which makes me fail to understand how people can suck at it), decent UI which has more recently taken on a couple of characteristics from dota 2 and lastly, I think they did a good job with providing ways for people to play casually and the learn the game at their own pace with vs AI games and the tutorial map. I think that is one thing that other dota style games tend to lack a bit.

Riot keeps interest well with new champions coming out all the time and new skins being designed for the champions. It's a good way to make them money too considering it's a free game. They also listen well to the demands of the community and added in a new map/game mode.

League is a good game so far. It has a long way to go but it is still a fairly new game and I think it has really good potential to last a long time and grow within the esports community.

I play it now and then because it's all most of my friends play and they refuse to play SC2. So just for the sake of playing some games together I usually have a few games a week with them, it's fun but it's no SC2.

[Celldweller]

LoL is fun as a casual game, Dota and Dota 2 are far more complex and skill based, LoL's main audience is fairly young, so you will get a LOT of trolls.

GP(Gangplank) is awesome =)

[ToRDeathsFang]

I played LoL for a while then drifted out of it, will probably get into it again at some stage. Played a lot with Master Yi and Nocturne, favourite heroes by far, but playing alone is lonely and boring and none of my friends play.

[iVnStinger]

To put it in one sentence, " It is a fun dota-like game that is far easier than Dota itself, and it's free. " (and sc2 ofc)

[FaDeKerrigan]

Played this game quite hardcore while awaiting Uni to commence. Interface and community wise, it is a lot more integrated than Dota so kudos to Riot for that. Quite a dedicated community of players who are active on their ladder(ranked games) and the local forum on Garena(Singapore community). This is based on my experience while i was hitting up ranked games back then. IMO, its gameplay is much more strategic and well designed compared to Dota. The introduction of summoner abilities really contributes to the development of the meta-game not to forget that there's an assigned jungler in each team almost every game as opposed to Dota. Intensity & Skill cap>Dota.

That being said, the community pool is akin to Dota. Demographics compose of mainly secondary sch(high school) to Junior College/Polytechnic students (Senior high sch i think?) whom unfortunately experience raging hormones and epeen is everything to them. Therefore, i decided to return to playing SC because i felt this was going nowhere. Cheers!

Starting to get into competitive LoL with my friends Slowly edging that elo up.

[Meatex]

I can't play it without getting annoyed at its control
mouse acceleration on camera panning when you use middle mouse da fuq?

and ehhh its not really enjoyable or fun - don't really feel any reason to keep playing it cause fapping also kills time and is much more rewarding. Also sc2 is more rewarding like when you finally defend a cheese thats been killing you and things like that

[iM yang]

I find LoL to be as enjoyable as you want it to be. A lot of my friends get really angry at the people they get matched with as they 'always feed or are always terrible'. I always try to be friendly and that makes it much more fun, every loss was my own exactly the same as in SC2. Although I find SC2 to be more rewarding.
I think if you tend to blame outside factors for your losses in SC2, balance for example, you're not gonna enjoy LoL.

[syc]

BEST GAME EVAHH.. *more than sc2 imo, but thats a preference* but sc2 will always have a place in my heart, as well as i still love watching them replays, and cant wait for legacy of the void(yah, i know, HotS isnt coming out in like 10ish decades*more or less*) but still ...

Agreed, I haven't played LoL but if it's like HoN then there is plenty to improve on generally, I guess the problem I find with these games is it's hard to enjoy it when it's some frantic typefest of people trying to ego boost themselves and be the first to call someone a noob/feeder lest someone single them out.

Though, that has it's funny moments too.

[Whiplash]

I played this game for about about 2 years the community is well filled with people you either pm you "YOU SUCK! UNINSTALL PLOX" if your doing horrible in a game (especially if your not exactly used to a champion there.) So I'd have to agree that the community mostly consists of either trolls, ragers and people who rub it in and stuff.
The match making system is a bit dodgy like when your a level 22 you sometimes end up in a game filled with level 30's with runes and masteries to buff their chosen champion even more.
I will admit that the gameplay is a little simpler compared to Dota or Heroes of Newerth but the brush gives it a little excitement (it's pretty fun when your entire team hides into a bush and 1 certain victim lands into it.)
I will give it props for being free to play and them giving the chance to play characters for free on a weekly basis since it is...tedious to earn IP for champions you want especially if your hellbent on making one of your characters your favorite.
Specs wise well everyone here who plays SC2 can play it with no problem

[pX.ToRDarKnoob]

in my experience LoL is the game that my friends play when they suck too much at sc2 and give up.. And you get flamed soooo hard if u cant play well much like NA server.

[Brultze]

For me I was introduced to LoL from a couple of friends, had a bit of experience with dota but got flamed so hard in my first two games i didnt bother trying to stick with it >.<. Anyway, I play LoL quite a bit to have fun with my friends. Also, let me just say, landing Nunu's ulti on all 5 enemy champions while playing AP(ability power) feels sooo awesome....

Anyway, I what I like a lot about the game is that whenever an great team fight for you team occurs there is such a great feel of satisfaction. Not to mention, Riot constantly produces new content for the game which makes it new with every release and changing the meta game. Finally, I found the game easy to pick up and learn which helped me maintain my interest in it .

If any of you wants to play with me my IGN is Brultze (as usual :P)

P.S, I play Iaguz quite a bit in LoL

[sheepy]

I just started playing LOL with some friends, and i really feel it is a ton more fun than dota, even though i've just been playing against the AI. Its incredibly fun as long as you play with friends. I tried playing with pugs once and they bmed the hella outta me and my friend. It was my first game that was not with AI... haha!

[simon]

the game has a really low skill cap and is very noob friendly, coupled with the free to play system it attracts huge amoungs of casual pub players. obviously hon/dota/dota2 are considered far better "competitve" games but it is what it is. noob friendly pub game

anyone wanna play together?

venom2142 add me guys

[Takiah]

Pretty much addicted! Although I don't get to play anywhere near as much now that I'm running a SWTOR guild.

Riot Games are amazing and are so involved with the community. I'm always on IRC (yes, I still use it :P) and in the unofficial #LeagueOfLegends channel there are always Riot employees socialising with us. I've had the pleasure of playing with quite a few of them actually!

I main Caitlin/Ashe/Kog and I have a pretty beefy Taric as well. I'm not overly adventurous!

Feel free to add me IGN: Takiah !
