Playing For: a few weeks
I've been playing this game for a few weeks. My son, level 30, finally convinced me to try. I'm VERY old school gamer (think Joust, pinball, tron, tetris etc.; 1st home system was a Fairchild back when I was teenage girl; BTW If you're trying to do the math, I'll be 50 on my next birthday.) LOL is my first foray into multi player online anything. I need help understanding picking best lane for champion type, how to survive early game, how to get more kills, when to jungle, choosing ward types, knowing where to put wards & gaming etiquette when playing on teams with humans, (done mostly bot games so far) Just got cursed at/yelled at by human player for going in wrong lane in a beginner co-op vs ai game. Had two players disconnect & never return in a game before that, etc. (only played 5 games with people thus far; bots definitely nicer experience). I started with Ashe (like her range, not her squishiness), tried Sivir (didn't work well) did better with Fiora; found Riven easiest to learn & best for me thus far (the no manna issue makes a big difference). My son is excellent tutor/mentor for me. But I don't want to eat up all his LOL time helping me. Could use additional input/advise from someone willing (and patient enough) to work with a "vintage" player like me. Thanks
