That's not dumb, but I don't know what you are asking. What does "best page" mean?

Like, the SSNL stickies would be to learn basic ideas/thoughts about 6m poker.. is there an equivalent to LoL where there are links to a bunch of strategy stuff that would make me better?

Ohh. Well, nothing here, I don't think. MobaFire is always a good place to go, though.

That being said, there are only three things you need to do to be better than 95% of LoL players:

1) Don't die needlessly (or at all, preferably)
2) Learn how to last hit well (pros clear 75cs/10 minutes; most amateurs should aim for at least 50)
3) Pay attention to the map while playing

http://www.solomid.net/guides.php

Right, I got the map stuff and all that. But for example, I don't know what an ap mid is, or what justifies a good top lane person. I'm finding it hard to explain myself, but I just don't know what counters each character or whatever.

This glossary might help:

As for what counters what... that's not important until you get to ranked. And even then, it's not the most important thing.

In a queue right now, enemy team 1st picks kassadin.

Our last pick really wanted to kass, so he is like "well, I guess i can anivia".....

Is it just me, or is kass a huge ****ing counter to anivia?

EDIT: For solo top, his decision was to go with Teleport/Promote Nunu, with no masteries.

At your level the meta doesn't matter, just pick your best champ.

If I wanted to help a beginner I'd show them solomid guides, not mobafire guides. Mobafire guides are written by bads. I don't see any reason why anyone should visit that site.

I'm a noob, level 9, only have a limited amount of games played and haven't played a game in a couple months.

All you really need to do is:

1. Know the basic structure of the game and how it works.
2. Don't get too aggressive and chase.
3. Watch the minimap and try to know where everyone is all the time.
4. Follow one of the guides for whichever hero you are using.

Eventually you will start to pick up on how everything works together and everything will make sense. Once you start getting to know the heroes and can pick them out in a match and know what they can do (knowing their spells and abilities), then you can start thinking about the meta game.

Morgana is pretty sweet for a newbie.

anybody who willingly picks anivia into kassadin is very likely dumb as hell

silence cancels anivia ult and riftwalks trolls the wall, kassadin also happens to one shot anivia mid game

oh yea I had a lot of fun with ori when she was free should pick her up now with the buff. Irelia seems pretty cool too. Was also thinking of getting another rune page and getting AS runes for junglers but they're pretty expensive

But yeah sometimes I lose having 14-5 and **** too. this game is sooo dependent on not getting teammates who are complete tards

You have a hidden match making rating. It's hard to say when it will happen, but it's gradual and fairly effective at getting you where you should be. level doesn't really mean anything, i see lvl 30's all the tiem that are mind blowingly bad... *cough* snowden *cough*

Good, I thought I was going crazy since 3 people on my team and 2 on the other team said Anivia would win the lane.

Anivia also said she would lane top, and "Kass is mid, so whats the problem?". I guess they don't grasp that people can move around the map during laning.
