    Exactly, he's amazing 1v1 vs most people but 2 or 3 if they are poor you'll win but if they are half decent your dead and have no escape abilities.

    Krul is actually one of the weakest heros. Any hero can solo the kraken. I randomed with noobs quite a bit as well. I've done about 24-30 kills in a game with krul.

    I am one of them. Can't stand noobs :) So many players believe they should spend half to full game in jungle when 99% of the game should be lane even with melee. That's why most of your games last 20+ mins. When it should only be 11-15mins.

    I'll be playing this game for awhile that's for sure. Hopefully they can merge regions since North American suck ;)

    I disagree somewhat, the lane is important but so is the jungle. If all 3 pile into the lane where melee is not as effective in most circumstances and the enemy just use 1 jungle player they will most likely win.

    Getting gold wins games stronger items and teamwork, the jungle is important for the gold mine and minion mines and to level up your hero as for melee it is a quicker way generally. But I do agree that people need to not just focus on the jungle and need to be wary of what's going on all over the map to help not lose turrets instead of ignoring and carrying on farming.

    I find the best way to win quickly is to have a good laner like saw to hold back the enemy and then 2 good jungle players to lock out the enemy by farming their side of the jungle and your own, you can out level them quickly and then dominate the game.

    I've had a game tonight where I was Krul and had the whole jungle to myself as I'd chased everyone off, become a much higher level than the enemy and was killing 2/3 at a time all on my own. Forcing them to only use the lane can let them destroy a few turrets if you don't have a great gunner but owning the forest and locking them out will win.

    But as you say there's more than one way to win and your way can also work but I feel it's more risky as unless you get a quick win they will quickly out power you.

    Then you need to learn. Because when you face me I predict 20-0. If you were alone in jungle either you were vs Noobs or you were getting owned in lane.

    Because the game is not about farming. It's about rushing. Your farming should be from the kills off enemy heroes.

    Well I wish we were in the same server so we could see as I doubt you'd get that vs me, those are generally the kinds of scores I get. I nearly always get much much more kills than deaths. But sadly when I have a team that doesn't work together I end up sacrificing myself to capture or hold things longer.

    Like I said I see your point about rushing the lane but if 2 enemies hold off all 3 of you and they have 1 in the jungle you'll lose. Assuming everyone is competent!

    I am pretty sure 11-15 minutes is not the time for any game wherein the opponents are equally matched.

    In my experience, a match with one laner each side typically follows a predictable pattern. The lane remains in equilibrium right up to the point where the first turret falls. After that happens, all heroes turn into roaming roles, and the focus shifts to map control and ambush.

    So my first two games....completely miserable. No kills, but I only died twice in the second match. For new people like me, the hardest part is figuring out when and what you need to do. Also figuring out what the individual skills do. Also, a way to chat would be awesome, at least figure out everyone's roles. I'm hoping to find my mojo in the next couple of games and start getting some wins.

    They are adding chat during startup of matches to decide roles but not in game but I think it the moment it's just in some countries while they try it.

    What heroes are you playing? I'm far from an expert as I just play for fun and don't research or play hardcore but I do pretty good so maybe I or others could give some tips.

    There is a "party chat" you can type in when you are part of a party. But when you queue with strangers, you won't have any sort of chat. Also, there is no indication that in-game chat will be implemented at all.

    Part of the reason could be the tremendous hue and cry that some people, me included, raised in the official forums against in-game voice chat.

    Lately, though, I realize that voice chat is needed to co-operate effectively. Everyone has their own style of play. So unless you talk, even simple things like targeting the same enemy, becomes impossible.

    I've found really good success with Ringo, tried others and kept dying. With Ringo got 15 kills, but teammates stopped playing and we lost. Second game only got 5 kills, but team worked really well. Once I'm fully comfortable with Ringo, start branching out.

    This is my first moba on any device, so not sure how well chat would work or if it would get abused (people saying stupid shite or putting others down). Surprisingly the three team buttons work well if all three participate. Hoping there will be new maps down the road as well, I like the current one, but new scenery is always nice and adds new strategy.

    I like Ringo he's pretty fun to play especially if you get a decent run. How do you work your item purchases do you just buy recommended or are you getting an idea of what to buy and branch out?

    If your comfortable with Ringo though stick with it, he's good in the lane but I'll next to never venture into the forest with him unless it's as a group.

    Right? Why do MOBAs always seem to bring out the kind of people who just cant stop talking about how good they are, or how bad somebody else is?

    lol
