Very interesting article. I must admit, that I never played League of Legends. So could please someone explain, how is it possible to reach top position simply by using this strategy in this game:
"My strength is in understanding the flow
of the game, when to fight and when not to
fight," he explains.
"Regardless of which champion I play, that
strength is there."
Either he's very humble or does not tell the whole story.
Additionally, I only get news from League of Legends by stuff posted on reddit. Which happens very often. Obviously there's a large fanbase. But the stuff posted there looks very alien to me. Moreover it often looks more like a spamfest than anything else. I'm used to First-Person-Shooters and there's a clear line from Starter to Pro. But how do you define skill in this game?

For me this looks more like someone running around aimlessly, bashing some spells and getting lucky. Please explain.
