i think of a "good leash" as 2-3 ppl doing something like auto-attack, dmg spell, auto-attack, +buffing/healing jungler if possible (janna shield/soraka heal/etc)

skill shots make up for any amount of "technical gameplay". It practically impossible to perfect in LoL so the skill cap is practically infinite. If you're worried about being challenged, either game will meet that need. I don't think denying, courriers, or not being able to go back w/o reagents add any skill to the game. They're just different(and in my opinion annoying).

I switched to LoL and don't regret it at all. In fact I tried to go back to HoN but threw up all over my keyboard trying to get used to the graphics/gameplay.

how do you lane with kassadin vs someone like cass, she seems to be able to just spam spells at you, and keep you away from farm, I haven't laned with him vs Graves/Cait but they both seem very tough to deal with as well

kass is an excellent anti caster. You either have to get him down early, or switch lanes or something. Better to handle it before the game. If ur gonna be a hard caster make sure he's banned

I played Kassadin vs. Cass, and yeah it was hard to farm.. but once we got to team fights I raped him pretty bad.

Obviously having a low cs early is really bad tho so it was just lucky

Hope it was worth it. You missed a good game against an AD Kennen that was redic. good. Not leveling btw. We eventually won after a long struggle.

I'm no expert but my answer is: it depends.

It depends on your skill level and the skill level of your opponents. I think it also depends on what style of play suits you.

I suck with any champ that requires me to continuously cast a ton of targeted spells. I do way better with tanks and bruisers. Xin is probably my most successful champ, he only has one spell which requires me to target a champ, the rest is just activations. He's also a noob-stomping machine but apparently he gets unviable in high level play cause there's no way to play him safely. You have no escape mechanisms.

^ If you be a man and slaughter everyone there's no need for escaping.

True dat.

The situation where I notice the biggest difference from say Tryndamere is in mid game when ur solo-pushing top/bot lane. With trynd you can just keep pushing until they show up and you have a pretty easy escape with your spin+flash and heal/ulti in worst case scenarios.

With Xin, if you are pushing top/bot solo past the river you're in constant danger of a gank. If 2+ show up from the jungle it's good night gracie most of the time.
