So in parallel with launching season 3, Riot made a new league of legends sports site called: lolesports.com Here a collection of teams, matching and statistics are making us able to follow the pro teams we like all the way to the top, I like the concept and some of the features, giving us weekly matches, some good stats about what to look for and prematch description, for example I like Copenhagen wolfs, since im from Denmark its pretty awesome to have a danish team battling it out with the pros, here this Saturday the 9th: Here we are also given som head to head stats in form of a graph which we can check KDA ratio, gold per minute and total gold. Then we have a pre-match coverage: Pre-Match Coverage Predicted to struggle against Millenium in the EU Qualifier, the Copenhagen Wolves surprised many by slaughtering their Group Stage opponents in consecutive easy wins. With the Wolves’ convincing qualification run fresh in everyone’s memory, the veterans of SK Gam...

Excited and waiting for the servers to come up to experience the new and improved ladder system, now S3 is announced to kick in when the servers come up, which hopefully will bring some good experiences with it! So here are the patch nodes, the most exciting part here imo are: - New ladder system - Annie visual upgrade! - Blitz nerfed mana and increased cost for rocket grab, not making him so viable as support maybe - Cho garth silence nerfed making him not so unstoppable at midlane - Ez nerfed a bit trying to balance his AD - Nunu nerfed bloodboil - Sightstone increased cost, making supports wanting to stay at lane longer before first back, could cause some matchups on bot lane to change significantly if supports need to spend gold on wards when backing first time, because not having gold for sightstone League System The League System has arrived for ranked play! Players and teams will now be placed into a League upon finishing their placement matches Leagues ar...

Saintvicious' show us how, I quote an article from  here you might have heard the story about how a hacker got into the Riot servers and set Saintvicious' ELO down to 0 back in in the Summer of 2011, you might have been wondering like me what the games looked like there. Well apparently some redditors actually located two videos of him playing! Videos of Saintvicious at Super Low ELO (Under 200) I've never been this deep before...what's in here?! If you've ever heard the story about how a hacker got into the Riot servers and set Saintvicious' ELO down to 0 back in in the Summer of 2011, you might have been wondering like me what the games looked like there. Well apparently some redditors actually located two videos of him playing! 10/22/2012 Edit: A lot of people were having trouble with the Own3d.TV player that SV used to record himself, so I took the liberty of converting the video/uploading it to YouTube. Enjoy!   Jax -166 ELO Game...

So I have had some trouble of finding proper community sites, so I've been making some research checking out different community sites and here's the list of sites I came up with that can contribute with something to the LoL scene: Guides: lolpro.com solomid.net lolking.net mobafire.com leaguecraft.com clgaming.net lolguides.net LoL Forum: euw.leagueoflegends.com/board (in front could also be: NA or EUNE) mobafire.com forum.lol.garena.com solomid.net/forums/ http://www.reignofgaming.net/ http://www.gamespot.com/league-of-legends/forum/ http://www.dominatedominion.com/forum/ http://www.rtsguru.com/game/435/League-of-Legends.html Tier lists: http://www.reignofgaming.net/tier-lists http://www.nerfplz.com/2013/01/2013-hero-tier-list-solo-queue-thresh.html http://www.dominatedominion.com/ http://euw.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=981782 Streams: leagueoflegendsstreams.com lolking.net http://www.solomid.net/streams.php http://www.rtsguru.com/g...

Personally I enjoy League of Legends, I think of it as a game where I can relax and at the same time be serious, challenge myself and become better as I learn, which if you read the article about "Why we play League of Legends", should be able to relate to. Even though this is the case, I still think there are some major things that can be done, in order to improve the game even further, League of Legends has a natural competitive thing around it, so has MOBA games, the community in LoL is unfortunately not that great, comparing it with Starcraft 2, people flame more, community sites such as teamliquid.com has its closest competitor with solomid.net, and still there alot is missing, we have some guide there, forums but we need a tournament page, a newsfeed as big as on teamliquid might not be needed, but it would be great! With that said, I still enjoy the community sites, and I do find them rather helpful. I would also like to see some kind of ingame replay system, I have u...
