Showtime da!

Thanks for all the comments on the earlier blog. Honestly I will limit this to one a day so not to appear spammy.

For Day 2 I thought I'd switch around stuff and take DOTA2 first. I made notes during my dead times - so lots of notes. DOTA I play by myself with bots.

• Tried Windranger - she seems fun and mostly an assist kill character. Item selections seems very important.
• Big thing to note. Tower projectiles. Having played LoL first I was used to the green circle showing its range and whether you aggro it. Perhaps it's the noob in me, but the random aggro I got sometimes, even with pulls infront of me and the INSANE tracking distance annoyed the hell out of me..but you die, you learn.
• Tried Luna next - that is not a Scots accent.
• Stayed in the middle lane, upgraded her glaive and pew pew...ult and got 3 kills. Thats fun. Again I see the WoW Dark Elf thing here..but gods that accent.
• Tried bounty hunter after listening to Brad talk about him on Idle Thumbs DOTA podcast..nope. Not for me.
• Fire Ember? Nope
• Juggernaut..hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha everything died.

In summary - learning characters against the AI before deciding who to main at the beginning seems like a good idea. Time to read up on lanes and who needs to be where. Thank the gods for all that time playing CC or Kite in MMOs. Good stuff with DOTA2 today.

LoL

Co-Op with players against AI.

• Start with Katriana? Looks like an assassin to me..decide to play that way. Lie in wait in the grass and gank champions as they go by.
• chat = top top bottom bottom bottom...errrrr, wait a sec.
• Starts off well, we at the bottom do a good job UNTIL random guy who doesn't play the first 5 mins starts telling everyone what to do and going off at some guys build. Ignore and move on.
• Probably not the way to play Katriana, die a lot but eh...continued moaning.
• Next game with Ashe - call bottom again. Looks to be fine.
• Some guy decides he wants to go mid with another guy...guy already there starts calling him noob and asks him to be reported. Roll eyes.
• Goes well..apart from NOOB NOOB NOOB every so often. I love ice arrows.
• Final game - Lux. ooooooooooooooooooooooooh baby yes.
• Go bottom again with a very competent Jinx, we clean up the bottom lane damn fast..CC is fun with someone sniping.
• Accidently kill Golem instead of Jinx..Jinx pissed and rightly so as I get ganked by the whole other team rolling by..oops.
• PEW PEW PEW PEW.........PEEEEEWWWWWW
• Apart from me not really understanding the jungling thing (sorry Jinx person) that went well.

TLDR- lots of home work to do.

EDIT: Have added above to original blog so not to fill up the general discussion with unnecessary updates.
