League of Legends is less of RTS because you don't build anything.
It's more like multiplayer Diablo with AI bots.
But sure I will add your name.

It's over guys. I give up on solo queue.
My last match... My team had a Miss Fortune who feed pretty hard (1/10/3 at the end) and didn't land a single ult. I mean, it's so easy to land, especially when you have a Kennen stunning the enemy team for you!
Then, a Nasus who announced 'not tanking' at the start. I didn't care much, but then...
Well, first he didn't want to solo lane. If you can't 1v2 as Nasus, you're playing him wrong, so very very wrong.
And then... His first item after boots.
Needlessly Large Rod.
I couldn't comprehend what he was thinking. AP Nasus? It makes no sense! Tank Nasus is great. AD Nasus does make logical sense, but it's a waste of talent. But AP Nasus? wtf man. I give up.

Solo queue ****s with me every game. Either I carry our whole team so much, or my team brings me down. I almost never have more than 3 deaths over my kills, but with the queue system my ELO is going to ****.
Like, I've played with a Tryndamere who couldn't even build himself correctly. He bought an IE until the 35 minute mark(after their Akali was 14/0), and didn't even buy a ZEAL.
Plus, I've played with a jungle Fiddle on TT. Now why the hell would you jungle as Fiddle on TT? Fiddle has amazing harass as a solo lane, can easily take out an opposing champion with his ult, and has a bajillion and a half ways to **** over the opposing team.
And he just sits around and dies to dragon.

I just found about similar games to League of Legends - Heroes of Newerth and Defense of the Ancients.
Defense of the Ancients is a Warcraft III Mod and requires Warcraft 3, The Frozen Throne to play it.
Heroes of Newerth is the only competition to League of Legends.
Has anybody played Heroes of Newerth?
Why is Heroes of Newerth not as popular as League of Legends?

League of Legends AND Heroes of Newerth are actually BASED ON Defense of the Ancients Allstars.
Defense of the Ancients is a Warcraft III Mod and requires Warcraft 3, The Frozen Throne to play it.
Heroes of Newerth is the only competition to League of Legends.
Not really, Demigod is another spinoff to DotA Allstars, but definitely not as popular as either.
Has anybody played Heroes of Newerth?
I have played Heroes of Newerth, and my brother plays it regularly.
Why is Heroes of Newerth not as popular as League of Legends?
Heroes of Newerth is essentially the same game mechanics and play style as DotA Allstars. League of Legends is much different, and also, it's free.

DotA and HoN are a LOT more technical than LoL. There's so many different mechanics, it's incredibly hard for new players to get into them.
If you'd like to try one of them, I really suggest waiting until DotA2, which is being developed by Valve. DotA is REALLY old now, and HoN... Well, it's going to die when DotA2 comes out, unless they do something really awesome with it.

I bought Annie yesterday.
Annie is good for crowd control, but it's not so good at killing Champions because of her weak attacks.
High rated Incinerate can easily burn through minions.
Molten Shield can make her take less damage, but has anybody tried a tank build?
Tibbers is very good at distracting the enemy and messing up their strategies.
You got our opponent army marching towards you and killer teddy bears appears right behind the enemy army.

I love Caitlyn.
OK, she's not the best ranged carry.
OK, she's actually a really meh ranged carry.
But she's so fun. Flying around the battlefield with your E, getting those really awesome kills with your Q, actually putting some thought into your trap placement and watching as the enemy team runs straight into them...
For all it's shortcomings, I love her ult. It's a great feeling when you manage to actually kill someone with it.
I swear though, it's glitched so the target will nearly always survive with 30~ HP... :(

I don't really care for playing with other people. If there's a slight chance of losing they quit... every time. Lost a few games because of that. Is there a PvE mode in LoL besides the practice mode?

I hate her tbh. She so useless on TT so that's probably why, and because I always play characters who kill her quick enough to take no damage from her.
She's decent with Lizard Buff though.

Nope. No PvE mode.
The real fun in LoL is getting a group of 5 friends and playing as a team.
You can be all serious and tourneyfag and tryhard if you like that.
Or you can be like Grasshyren (
