ask anyone who plays the game and they'll tell you they'd be about 90000x more scared of a fed vayne than a fed miss fortune

Even if you filter the stats to only count games above 1800 ELO, you'll see that Miss Fortune has a win rate of 52.66% and 6.1/3.6/5.1 average KDA, while Vayne has 43.75% wins and 5.5/4.6/4.3 KDA.

Vayne has a lot of problems. Theoretically she has the highest DPS of the ranged AD champs, however she has no farming skills to get to that point. She might win in 1v1 fights but lose in the grand scheme of things since there are many more things that go into a League game than duels between two champions.

this stats thing is real cool

[Blademasterbobo]

isnt that thing only from people who submit info? probably not a great source of info if it is

read the faq noob

Where do you get your data from?

We get our data from the Riot servers. Basically, we pretend to be the League of Legends client, and we use the "Lookup Player" feature to download your recent games, ranked stats, etc.

damn. according to this I have 668/673 wins and losses. dum.

this shit is hilarious

Those videos are so beautiful.

Still not level 30 yet.  Halfway there.  So far, my favorites are Fiddlesticks, Morgana, Vlad and Taric.  I bought Ryze too, he's fun, but I haven't played him much since I started getting more champs.  The teams I'm getting at this point are total shit.  The guy who got me into LoL (And smurfed to level me up) said that it's "worse than elo hell".  It isn't fun.  Especially solo queue.  When my whole team has more than double their kills in deaths, and the enemy Yi has 18 kills, what could I do?  I can only carry so hard.
Tell me it gets better.  I know it does.  I just want to hear it from someone else.  I want to get to the point where people except for me use wards and buying an Oracle's isn't worthless because the enemy team has no wards.  And where junglers become common.  Where they don't die on blue, even with a leash.  And bot lane doesn't die twice before creeps even spawn.  And they don't face check bushes, because someone takes clairvoyance.  And wards.  Did I mention wards?
Because wards.

Oh God, I love League. 'Cept I haven't been able to play for a long while, my computer broke. If it wasn't I'd probably be on my 5th game right now. The champions I like to use are Fiddlesticks and Veigar. Fiddlestick's drain is amazing and I love using his ulti once I got the hang of it. It makes me laugh so much though when I see a Fiddle pop his ulti and he can't catch up with anyone haha. I love Veigar because I've been the most successful with him and I love his spiking abilities. Also, his ulti is so awesome on high AP users. And and anddddd I love using event horizon when I'm mid. Just lure the person near my turret and then boom. I've gotten so many kills that way haha.

Concerning players, I've seen some really mean people. I rage, I just don't type it into the chat bar, haha. I just speak in a louder voice at my computer screen. I hate people who rage a lot though, it makes me mad when people will ruin a game just because they don't agree with anyone or they don't have the patience for anyone. There was one match where I picked Veigar and someone had Fizz and he just left the game because he thought I was going to go mid. The forums piss me off too, so I don't really like the community of League. I love the game though, and I love the people who try to work together with other people. It's the best. When I get my laptop working, I'll come here for people to play with.

Oh god, veigar.  Also, have you tried jungling fiddlesticks yet?  It's so great. Nothing beats ganking people with crowstorm. 
And stunning people under the turret is so much fun.  Morgana's Q is fantastic at it.  Even fiddlesticks' fear.  Any stuns.  At all.  Lulzy.

Also, Morgana's ult is similar to Fidd's.  It doesn't have a blink, but it deals damage to champions on range on activation, and then if you keep inside that range, it deals the damage again with a 2 second stun.  Fun in teamfights.

morg is pretty much always banned in ranked matches

fiddle, not so much

[Paul Eres]

fiddle isn't banned because he jungles extremely slowly (i always have like 90 creep kills at the end of a game as jungle fiddle and other junglers can have like 200+), and because if you steal his blue, he's toast. he's a pretty strong ganker but your team has to be intelligent enough to all guard his blue at the start of the game (all 5 of you at his blue), which you can't really expect people to do at ELO's below about 1600

support fiddle actually works very well (similar to support lux, but even stronger), but teammates will rage at you if you say you are going support fiddle

similarly, there's a selection of things that LoL players just don't like, because they aren't used to it, even though it works very well. for instance, galio is the best mid in the game, yet most players think galio always goes top and will complain if galio asks for mid (unless you're high elo). jungle pantheon and jungle twitch also work very well but also are unpopular with teammates. AD lulu also works very well but is frowned on (there are mathematic calculations showing that if you compare an AD teemo and an AD lulu, the AD lulu does more damage with every single build: plain AD with IE and phantom dancer, or on-hit effect / attack speed with madred's, malady, nashor's tooth, etc.)
