      LoL: Urf the Manatee contest winners are up

      April 13, 2010 /

      Urf the Manatee memorial.Riot has finally posted the winners of the Urf Memorial Contest in the official forums. Each grand prize winner is being awarded 5,000 Riot Points and the “Friend of Urf” forum title, while runners up will receive 2,800 RP and the forum title, and the honorable mentions will just bask in the glory of a shiny new forum title.

      Looking over the entries I’m a little sad I didn’t enter this thing. Some of them are admittedly great, but some others are pretty weak. Could you write a limerick with a thesaurus? I could.

      My petty jealousy aside, congrats to the winners. That’s a lot of RP to be throwing at the Store and I wish I could say I was among your ranks. Check out the full list of winners on the official forums and be sure to give their entries a look/listen.

      LoL: Tell your friends about this site!

      April 12, 2010 /

      The title of this post may be a little misleading but it’s an honest plea. It’s been great to have additional traffic to the site and more input than just my own on the topics I post. I’m fairly certain this is one of few sites that focuses on creating new and original posts about LoL every day, whether it’s news items, op-eds, or just musings on day-to-day gaming. I would love to see community feedback continue to grow and grow.

      So please, tell your friends and keep coming back. I’ll try to keep up with the comments as fast as they’re coming in. If you ever want a game together you can find me at “The Wiggin Boy” in game. Thanks for the support!

      10 Kick-Ass gadgets coming in 2010

      April 12, 2010 /

      Kick-Ass gadgets.I don’t know if you’ve seen the trailer for Lionsgate’s upcoming Kick-Ass but it looks funny in that quirky, charming, kid-movie kind of way. We decided to put together a list of this year’s gadgets that will also kick some serious ass and put it up on our parent site, Bullz-Eye. The best part about the list is the fact that it does not include the iPad. Yes, Apple haters, if you want to enjoy a gadget list for the upcoming year without the world’s flavor of the month, this is your chance.

      I tried to cover a wide range of products so everyone could have something to love. Obviously Project Natal and Playstation Move are the big video game releases for the year, and though I didn’t use the iPad, the iPhone 4 is on there (sorry guys, iPhone OS 4 looks great). I’m also looking forward to the nPower PEG and MagicJack’s upcoming femtocell. On the whole, it’s going to be a pretty solid year for gadget geeks.

      LoL: Kennen data for the haters

      April 12, 2010 /

      Kennen victory list.I can’t believe how many people think Kennen is underpowered. I just don’t understand. I’ve been playing him almost exclusively since the patch and I’ve been a dominant force in every single game. I could understand if I was playing at a fairly low ELO and noobstomping, but I know my stats aren’t so bad. Honestly, I’m just a few percentage points away from a high-ELO play if recent posts are to be believed.

      Here’s a look at my last ten games as Kennen, all victories (yes, I finally pulled a nice winning streak). Several of them I did run with a premade, but for most it was either partial premade or solo queue.

      Victory: 13-0-2
      Victory: 5-0-2
      Victory: 3-0-6
      Victory: 13-2-6
      Victory: 9-1-13
      Victory: 10-3-10
      Victory: 4-1-5
      Victory: 10-0-4
      Victory: 9-0-3
      Victory: 13-2-3

      Total numbers are 89-9-54. I’m averaging almost 9 kills a game on Kennen with less than one death per game. I’m sorry, I just don’t see how anyone could think he’s UP. I can’t wait to have this little ninja on my top 3 list.

      LoL: Snowballing on Twisted Treeline

      April 12, 2010 /

      Snowballing on TT.I decided to stay up last night and grab a few solo queues on TT to see how I would fare with Kennen. The first game went pretty well. I was holding my own, not necessarily dominating (they had a Shen/Poppy/Warwick so it was tough to burst a target down) but I wasn’t dying and I was picking up the occasional kill. Our own Shen wasn’t using his ult early enough, though, and we ended up losing a long game after some intense teamfights. Overall it was a lot of fun.

      Unfortunately that kind of game isn’t the norm for Treeline. Most games I see are landslides in either direction, even if they take 30-40 minutes to finish. It’s a problem I think will be hard to balance if only because 3v3 is much less forgiving to players prone to making mistakes. In the next game my opponents weren’t nearly careful enough with me early game. Only one had cleanse and the others were short on CC.

      You can see the results in the screenshot I posted. Take a look at Fiddle’s farm compared to my own. He was so far behind by the time I had 4 kills that there was just no coming back.
