League of Legends Champion suggestions - today: Cassiopeia

Hi everyone,


well, today is one of those days where I have absolutely no plan on what I should write about. When you remember my last post, I also told you I'll write about the game League of Legends when I'm to lazy/stupid to think of any other subject.

In that case I want to tell you about a certain champion each time I have this idea blocking state of mind.
For everyone that doesnt know about LoL.... just skip from here till the end of the post and comment something like "nice" or "cool" ;D

I think I start with my favourite champion:

Cassiopeia, the Serpent's Embrace

Cassiopeia is a ranged mage that poisons her opponens, can stun everyone in front of her and can spam her skills like no other champion.

Short  introducion into some of the shortcuts I use:


harras = throwing your skills at the enemy every few seconds
farmer = killing (a lot of) enemy mionions in a short time
Dot = Damage over time
aoe = area of effect
cc = croud control
feed = the champion gets a lot of kills so he gets a lot of money to buy better items (you see where this is going?)


Lets take a look at her skills:


passive skill - Deadly Cadence
after casting a spell, the following spell will cost 10% less mana. This goes upt to 50% less mana costs.

Q Skill - Noxious Blast
you cast a poisonous cloud at the location of your cursor and in a little area every enemy gets poisoned and damaged for 3 seconds. When you hit an enemy champion with that skill you get a temporary movement speed buff.

W Skill - Miasma
it looks like you vomit on the ground and cause a violett poudle of poison that damages and slows enemy units for a short time. The poudle also doubles in size over time and then fades away.

E Spell - Twin Fang 
 this is your main spell. You damage a nearby enemy instantly with this spell. When the enemy is poisoned and you hit him, the cooldown of this spell has only 0.5 seconds so you can cast it almost instantly again.

R Spell - Petrifying Gaze (ultimate)Your ultimate is an allround skill. You can interrupt enemys while casting, prefend enemys from getting away or you can use it to save your ass. When you cast it, every enemy in front of you gets a lot of damage and if he faces you, he gets stuned for 2 seconds.


Now some pros and cons about cassiopeia:


Pros:
-awesome mid lane champ
-great harraser
-great farmer
-one of the strongest early/mid game champs
-has 2 skills to scout into bushes
-has 2 skills to poison the enemy
-can spam her E spell every 0.5seconds! when the enemy is poisoned
-has an aoe stun skill
-3 out of 4 skills are aoe effects so you can deal with multiple enemys at a time
-her passive allows you to spam her skills
-she is half snake, half woman


Cons:
- once silenced she cant do anything (like every mage)
- slow movement speed
- low health compared to other mage champions
-when the enemy is not poisoned, your E spell is not that effective
-when your enemy doesnt face you while you use your ultimate, he is only slowed
-weak in end game when not feeded
-some cc in your face and you are dead
-when the enemy harrases you, you have big problems to survive thanks to your slow movement and low life


Last word because I wont post a guide to play her in here:
What I personally really like about cassiopeia is her ingame history. When she first came out, a lot of people bought her because her preview video looked awesome but they failed hard and called her totally useless because they where to stupid to play her.
Since then, every time riot changes something about her, its a benefit for her and still you dont see her much in any game.
She only got buffed and since the last time she was included in a patch its even easier to play her. I also like how often I get underestimated by other players and then totally kick their sorry asses because with only 2 items you can compare almost every negative side of her. You are also one of the strongest mid lane champs, she can farm like crazy thanks to her aoe skills and her ultimate is such a pain in the ass for the enemy team in a team fight.


Next time I wont talk about LoL... maybe


Bye :D

the daily routine

Hi everyone,

did you notice that I start almost every post of mine with that "hi everyone"? Somehow I just cant start a post without saying hello, hi or welcome. But only saying "hello" seems a little short to me. With "hi everyone" I welcome everyone who looks at my post and its also longer than a simple "hello". Crazy shit....


Anyway, if you followed my blog for some time, you might have read that post
click me to see an older post of mine
and as you can assume from that post, I love playing League of Legends. And since my day looks kinda like this:

-waking up
-work
-coming back home
-eat + small talk with family
-playing League of Legends for the rest of the day
-sleep

I decided to talk about that game a little more. Dont worry, it will be just a post here and there if Im to lazy to think of something better. ^^

For everyone that doenst know that game, I advice to read some reviews about that game (not only mine. I love that game so my review will tell you only good things ;P), take a look and give it a try. Its free-to-play so the only thing you will waste is your time. Its also one of those rare free-to-play games where you really, really dont have to pay anything to be a good player.
If you dont know what Im talking about:
Almost every free-to-play game finances itself with items that you can buy online for that game. With those items you bought, you have a big advantage towards other players. And in most of those games you cant be a good player if you dont spend money for the game. The game forces you to buy the stuff so you can become better or else you will have big problems. It would be possible to make your way without said items but thats really hard. I wont say any game names.

Sure you can spend your money on League of Legends if you want to but the only thing you can buy are:
- extra skins so your champion looks different
- extra rune pages but you already got 2 from the beginnning and can buy extra pages with ingame money (IP-points) you earn for each game you complete
- new champions but every week there are 10 free to play champions and you can buy any champion with ingame money you earn for each game you complete. If you bought a champion he will be permanently unlocked. Also every newly released champion is free to play after 2 weeks for one week so you dont have to buy him if you can wait a little.

I'll upload some screenshot from games im proud of or where i just lost horribly ^^
Different subject:
Some of you adviced me to use gimp to make gifs. Someone also said I should upload the video but its not a video (maybe i should have said that). I just want to show some pictures in a row and dont want to make the post even bigger as it already gets. Now I only have to figure out, how to make gifs with gimp ^^

Bye :D

Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy~?

Hi everyone,

I dont know why but every week starts with an awkward moment for me. Maybe its bad karma, bad luck or some all mighty what-ever hates me every monday and tuesday.
All I did was sitting there at work and worked on a programm and like every morning around 11am I got really sleepy. Usually I drink an energy drink, walk for 5 minutes or eat something with sugar. But today I wanted to finish that project I was working on before 12 o'clock. And then it happend. I fall asleep for like 30 seconds. That was enough time for someone to walk into my room. He noticed I was sleeping, kicked my chair and said "we dont pay you for sleeping" and in all of my cleverness I answered without thinking "and I dont pay you for kicking my chair"..... fuck. Acutally I dont pay anyone in there so why the hell did I said that?
He left the room without saying anything and I realised that i felt asleep and what I said to him. Then the embarrassment came over me. But then I got that itchy feeling inside of my nose so I put my little finger in there as far as I could and tried to solve my problem.
In that very goddamn fuckin moment, the same person who woke me up, came around the corner, looked at me while I was scratching my brain through my nose, made a disgusted look and left the room.
I think I can never look that person in the eyes...

But now, the week can only get better. At least I hope so.

Anyway, Im working on a big post.
A really, really, super-duper-hyper big post.
A post, so incredible big that not even a "your mom is so fat...." joke can compete to that post.
A post, so unbelievable big that... well, I think you got it how big it will get. But I could use some animated pitcures for it. Does someone know a good program to make some gifs? Im to lazy to install half a dozen progams that may match my search on google but are plain crap in the end.

Bye :D

suddenly... music (and history lesson)

HELP ME!
I cant get this melody out of my head

I just cant stop playing it over and over and over and over... again.

also:
It is a long weekend  for me because Monday is a national holiday in Germany :D
It's called  "Tag der Deutschen Einheit". On that day, we celebrate the reunion of Germany  after the cold war. Actually the real reunion was 1990 at the 9th of November (day of the fall of the wall which seperated east germany and west germany) but there where other events that happend before on the 9th of November (Hitler-Ludendorff-coup 09. November1923 where Hitler tried to take over the controll of Germany through a revolt & Reichspogromnacht 07.-13. November 1938 where Nazis killed around 400 Jews, destroyed hundres of buildings and graves and imprisoned around 30.000 Jews). So in the end, it was decided that the 3. October should be a national holiday of germany.

EDIT:

sorry guys for that popup-thing. I didnt even know i allowed that and thanks to my popup blocker i never noticed myself. I think it is disabled now. If not i need a serious hint how to remove those popups.

just a (simple) question

Hi everyone,

Let me ask you this:
Do you think you are smart, clever, talented and/or intelligent?
I've been told from a few former teachers I'm a very clever boy. I could be anything I want. Maybe that was a bad idea to tell me something like this. Through that, I always think that I know that I could do better if I wanted to but at that moment I'm was to lazy.
Every time when I ask myself this question, I think back when my teachers stood before me, handed me my test results over and told me I could do better and in the next test I did without any effort.
This showed me, that I have the "abillity" to learn without doing anything but just sitting there and listen. I never learned at home. I barely did my homework. I never knew when we where going to write a test. But in the end, I managed to get a good grade, or at least, not a bad grade.
This let me think Im clever...
But school is long ago. I didnt wrote tests for a long time. I didnt listen to teachers that explain new things to me for a long time. I didnt pratice any of the old stuff I learned once. Instead i played computer games or I've been just lazy and wasted my time.
How can I still say that Im intelligent, that I still have this "abillity" to learn anything I want, without any proof?

...I dont want to be stupid so Im just going to believe that im still as talented as in the past. For the well-being of my conscience.


(sorry for that, but sometimes I have the urge to write about things like this to get it out of my mind. Next time it will be something more.... stupid ^^ )

every week the same day

hi everyone,

so its monday.... again.
And i thought my time machine would work, so that this weekend would last forever.
Lets hope that this monday wont last forever due a construction mistake in my time machine :s

Only one way to find out.... lets wait and see.

Bye :D
