Memorial

Memorials... Depressing right? Thanks Mr. Ravenda.


Now, you may be thinking, " Memorials? League? What is this sorcery?! " Well, the answer is Mr. Ravenda knows how to make everything depressing. Lets Begin.

So sometime in 2014 on an unspecified date, a 16 year old boy and his mother were presumed dead. How you may ask? Well let me tell you, it was shocking to hear. A young man from China was let out from school on his vacation break, but he made one crucial mistake. Instead of coming home after school, he made his way to a net cafe to play league of legends. Net cafes are generally 18+, but he went anyways. After returning home, a fight broke out between the boy and his mother. His mother said things like she "couldn't live with herself" because her son was playing online games. She had felt like she raised her son wrong. She began making threats to jump in the Jialing River. The two ended up on the banks of the river, and after her taking a few steps forward, she was caught by the undercurrent. His mother was swept away. His father arrived at the scene and was beginning to guilt trip his son saying things like "You had to go online, you had to play games!" The son himself, jumped in the river. That is what happened. I believe that this whole ordeal was unnecessary in the least, and they definitely took this to its highest extremities. However, what was done can not be undone. I do not know much about these people, as there were really no personal details in the article, but I can assume that they were loved and appreciated by their friends, family, and the atmosphere around them. Its just a shame that it had to end like that.

See you next week.

FAQ's! yay.

Okay, so today's post is going to be an FAQ. I've gotten a whole bunch of confused feedback and it's time to clear up some terms and acronyms to make my future posts more understandable. Let's get right to it then!



Q: You talk about "adc" so much, what is it?


A: Adc is an acronym standing for "attack damage carry." It basically means the main source of attack damage. Meta games most likely always have ONE adc if there are no complications. An adc usually goes to the bot lane, but on some very odd compositions there are instances where the top laner and the bottom laners switch lanes, and sometimes you even see adc jungles.


Q: What are the other roles?


A: The other lanes are top, middle, support, and there's one more role called jungle that basically helps other lanes. Some times in low level gameplay there are two people top instead of jungler. Top lane pretty much consists of tanks, fighters, and sometimes casters. Middle lane is basically at the center of everything. You are also able to roam to help top or bottom lane. Mid primarily consists of mages, ability power casters, attack damage casters, and things like assassins. Support is there to help the adc thrive in lane. They are there to protect and utilize their adc. Bottom lane is heavily dependent on the support.


Q: What is "Meta"? 


A: Meta is basically the current style of play in the community. It depends on a lot of things, like new patches and updates. Metas are primarily focused around one class of champions(i.e. Assassins, Tanks)


Q: Why is Joe so bad? 


A: THE WORLD MAY NEVER KNOW.


Bye. (:
