New Feature! Server Switcher Within the LoL Client!

Guys! I'm so excited about the new "Server Switcher" feature from within the League of Legends client! It's about time RIOT got around to implementing this feature!

How to Switch Servers between NA and EU with the New Client

It's easy to switch between servers with the new League of Legends client. Simply fire up the client, then move your mouse towards the bottom-left of the splash screen where it says "Change Region". Click on the button there and select your server (either NA or EU). I love how easy it is! No more double-installations of the game and no more third party programs!

Anyhow, I hope you guys are staying safe during the patching. I have been busy with work so I haven't been able to play as much. But what I do have to say is this: LEONA IS RIDICULOUSLY OVERPOWERED! If you can't play her, then you really do (like, really really do) suck. Hard. The plus side of it is that most nubs don't know how to play tanks; they're always insta-locking squishy champions like Vayne. Pfft!

Transitioning to First Time Ashe dot COM

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to let you all know that I will be slowly phasing out the use of this blog into the use of my primary blog, http://www.firsttimeashe.com/. As you may or may not know, First Time Ashe is the sister site of this blog, one which I started at the same time, but rarely have ever updated. It has really just served as a 'storage site' of sorts, and contains basically every bit of code not available to this blogger site.

The reason for switching to First Time Ashe is really just for the functionality; although I love Blogger and the Google engine behind it, I find that having the ability to not only upload files to my site, but the use of PHP code is a necessity for me. Having two sites really took up a lot of my time in having to not only insert tidbits of code, but having to learn new information in order to transfer coding from one site to another is intensely time consuming!

I am not bidding this website a 'farewell', but rather, a 'welcome'. I am not abandoning it, but merely transferring its whole ideal to a new location. I will still be here, I will still be writing, only this time, it will be on http://www.firsttimeashe.com/. Please come and visit my new site, as it will be our new home...

As we leave this first frontier, our statistics are as follows: 1,000+ visitors PER DAY, Google PageRank #1 for multiple search terms, and numerous posts on the official League of Legends forum! I will be posting on this Blogger site every so often... I just can't bear to leave it to its own accord! Well, see you on our sister site, http://www.firsttimeashe.com/!


Sincerely,



LXRemmix

Patch Notes v1.0.0.121

Sorry, still no Leona. Maybe next time :-)

[Edit: The patch is scheduled to be completed at 2 pm PDT. Click here for details]

[Edit: The server just went down for emergency maintenance, I suggest everyone get some shut eye and check back tomorrow! But if you insist on waiting for the server to come back up, I suggest using   Highlight3d's "LoL Server Status Checker" program to automatically notify you when the server status becomes available. (I have it running right now, so I can do other things while waiting for the servers to come back up). You can find his thread and download link here:
http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board...d.php?t=920343

If you just need something to do, then I suggest earning $50 Gift Cards just by doing what you already do online anyway (watching videos / searching online / posting on social media)!And if you are particularly crafty, you can earn about $14 per hour by completing their surveys! Click on the link below to find out what it's all about!

EU Server Split!

Over the past few weeks, every time I logged on to the EU server, I would have to wait for about 45 minutes just to login. (It was never much of a problem for me, since I study and eat dinner as I wait anyway). RIOT has since proposed the arrival of a second EU server in order to prevent further overload. Smart idea, RIOT!

The EU servers will now be split into the following twin servers, based on geographic region (please see the picture above): 

• EU West Server
• EU Nordic East Server

RIOT assigns your server location and should notify you via email. You will only be able to login to your specific server from then on. All of your information, stats, and match history will remain the same. If you cannot find your friends when you login, it means that they are on the other server. You have two options here: switch to their server, or have them switch to your server. You only get one free server switch, so use it wisely! (You can access the server switch via the online store within the League of Legends client).

I have been assigned to the EU West Server, so find me there if you wish to play with me. :-)
Please note that you can still create a new account at any of the League of Legends servers... so expect to see me with new accounts on every server ;-)

Happy gaming!

How To Remove The PVP Keylogger Virus

As you may or may not know, PVP was recently hacked by some hackers who sent mass messages to all users yesterday. People were instructed to visit a website on youtube... and if you were unfortunate enough to visit that site, you received a virus download. This virus is a keylogger virus which records your keystrokes (in order to steal your username and password). RIOT has nothing to do with that site or the virus. You can get rid of the virus by following the directions below:

RIOT states that any personally identifiable information has not been compromised. Read more here:

EU Server Update! OP Singed!

Just had a FANTASTIC game today with Singed on the EU server! Seems like this game really does require some skill. My favorite comment from the enemy team? "You must be level 30 with a new account, you LOSER! Stop picking on us NOOBS!" I guess people can tell? The best part is that my level 4 Singed pwned their lvl 11 Akali all game, lawlzors!

Did you know that the EU server players don't call MIA's? 

They call 'SS [insert champion namehere]' instead! Weird!

My League of Legends Wedding Song

I know, it's kinda corny. But if I met a girl while playing League of Legends, I'd totally ask her to have a League of Legends wedding together (lol)! And of course, we'd rock out with a party in the middle of the lanes!

If I were to have a League of Legends wedding, this is the song that I would play for our dance!

Emerald City Chau Chau's!

Congratulations to my own tourney team, the Emerald City Chau Chaus! Our team participated in the Seattle, WA local League of Legends tournament at [GameClucks] and made it to round four of the tourney!

Our team rolled through the first match without a hitch for our first victory!
The second match was a bit tougher and sent our team running for the hills for our first loss!
The third match looked much better as we took the other team by storm!
The fourth match saw a much more dismal fate, as our team was destroyed by their team of four tanks!

Don't sweat it, team, the next tournament is in two months! Practice hard!

Journey into the EU Server!

I recently queued with someone from the European (EU) who claimed that the EU server was better than the North American (NA) server. He said that I could never get to his ELO on the EU server. I wondered if this was true, but upon comparing his 0/0 Jarvan to my 5/2 Tryndamere that game, I thought I'd give it a try.

"You will get eaten alive on the EU server, they are so much better than you are," he said after hearing about my plans. "I am only smurfing here on the NA server, I assure you that I can completely stomp you on the EU server."

I look forward to challenges.

So today, I started a new account on the EU server under the name "LXRemmixS2" (Click here to signup for an EU account - make sure to change the Region setting to "Europe", otherwise you will be signing up for the NA server!) . I used the "Server Switcher v4" software (designed by Silviuvlad) to avoid having to reinstall my League of Legends client all over again. After downloading the file, I simply copied them into my League of Legends folder, and opened the "N2E.exe" file, which brought me to the EU server login. I actually recommend it because of its convenience. To obtain it, just click here. You need to complete a quick survey in order to download it, but it only takes a minute and the software is well worth it! Just make sure to make a copy of your entire League of Legends directory before using this, just in case you want to remove any changes.

(But if you insist on reinstalling a fresh copy of the game for use on the EU server, click here to signup to the EU League of Legends server. Make sure to change the Region setting to "Europe", otherwise you will download the NA copy, which is not what you want! It is a small download for the first file, but the patcher will download the complete client which is ~2GB in size, so be prepared to wait for it to download and install!)


Then, I proceeded to use my League of Legends Digital Collector's Pack which provided all of the champions I needed, $10 worth of RIOT Points, a few runes, and a skin included in the bundle. I did this so that I could hit the ground running and start kicking butt immediately! After that, I looked at my tier list, Remmix's Normal 5v5 Solo Queue Champion Tier List, and picked a champion from the top two tiers which I was comfortable using. I chose Annie, since my team needed a mage.

As expected, my first game was a success! It was fairly easy to distinguish just who the new players were against who the experienced players were... like me, there were veteran gamers who created new accounts as well. Still, they did not stand a chance against my Tier 2 Annie! I accompanied my two tanks (Rammus and Malphite) into battle and spammed my spells to the best of my ability. It wasn't long before we achieved victory!

So far so good, and I have quite a ways to go before I reach level 30! I can't wait to reach level 30 and face the more experienced EU players! I will definitely have to keep you guys posted about my experiences... so stay tuned for updates!

Season One Championship Winners! Team Fnatic!

Congratulations to the 
League of Legends

Season One Championship 
Tournament Winners

Team Fnatic!

(aka Team FnaticMSI or Fnatic.MSI or FnaticMSI.LoL)

Here is the final Tournament Bracket: 

If you missed the two final, heart-thumping matches, you can view them here and in FULL HD!

Watch the Final Upper Bracket Season One League of Legends Championship Match here:

Upper Bracket Final
Fnatic vs. aAa Game 1

(Fast Forward to skip the long introduction commentary)

Upper Bracket Final
Fnatic vs. aAa Game 2

(Fast Forward to skip the long introduction commentary)

In the first match, Team Fnatic received their desired picks and played very well, ending the game early with very few deaths. Toward end game, the score was 15-0 until FnaticMSI Shushei went in, rambo-style, to give their team their first kill! Things were looking great for Team Fnatic!

The second game proved to be more challenging than the first. It looked like aAa used the intermission to productively hone in on FnaticMSI's weak points! aAa really started to pour it on thick as they won battle after battle! The second game was definitely a lot closer and more competitive than the first game. Things really were looking dismal for FnaticMSI toward mid-game. But as late-game approached, FnaticMSI won the more crucial battles, resulting in a 2-0 victory over Team aAa!

It was tough. It was intense. But in the end, there can only be one! Congratulations to Team Fnatic on winning the Season One Championship Tournament and the $50,000 Grand Prize! Looking forward to Season Two!

The League of Legends Server is Down!

There has been some PVP.net issues all day today and although I could deal with the lag, it seems that Riot feels the need to shut down my favorite game! I can't log on or anything!

If you try to log on, you will be put into a 10,000 person queue and even after you get IN to the game, you will find that there are no friends on your friends list! PVP is having some issues right now and I am getting restless, as I really want to play right now!

Anyhow, hang tight summoners! I am sure that Riot will not let us down!

In the meantime, I am excited to announce to you that I have just finished my first League of Legends ebook, "Top 10 Player Skills That Win League of Legends Games"! You can grab your copy of my FREE ebook by subscribing to my "GOSU League of Legends Newsletter" by submitting your information at the top-right of this page! I am giving away my ebook as a gift to anyone that subscribes to my newsletter! Sweet deal, isn't it?

This book will OPEN YOUR EYES!

Anyhow, hang in there, Riot will fix the servers soon!

[Edit] 6:00pm the server status is back online! Happy gaming!
