Tired of Playing StarCraft? Try This StarCraft Like RTS Game

January 1st, 2012 by admin No comments »

Hey everyone! I’m back to promote my favorite game ever, League of Legends, a very StarCraft like RTS game! Now let me tell you, I have played StarCraft. I have played a lot of StarCraft. In fact when StarCraft 2 came out I managed to reach #180 on the US ladder. However I grew bored with it and started to search for other games to play. It was hard to find a game that could compare with StarCraft 2 until I stumbled on League of Legends. League of Legends brings the same strategic gameplay that I loved in StarCraft 2 but also includes far more teamwork and fast paced action!

If you have not already heard about League of Legends let me give you a little background. It is a MOBA (multiplayer online battle arena) game based around a team of 5 champions. At the start of each match players each choose a champion (there are 80+ champions to choose from) and then work together to push through the enemy team’s defenses and kill their base.

Each champion has a unique set of abilities as well as strengths and weaknesses. Perhaps one of the things I find most refreshing is how well the game is balanced. The producers, Riot, make changes weekly to ensure that all champions are viable and naturally this leads to a wide range of characters being used in game.

League of Legends, being the StarCraft like RTS game that it is also has the same “easy to get started hard to master” idea that Blizzard used behind their StarCraft franchise. This makes LoL an extremely fun game straight from the get go, that only gets funner with time. Plus with a new champion being released every 3-4 weeks there is no chance of the game getting stale. » Read more: Tired of Playing StarCraft? Try This StarCraft Like RTS Game

Guidelines For Taking Part And Winning Online Competitions

December 31st, 2011 by admin No comments »

It goes without saying that on the web, you can numerous contests from children to adults. There are many dedicated contest sites that are only out on the web that can be effectively used to win prizes. If luck is on your side, you can free cash, gadgets like tablet PCs or gaming console and furniture. There are a couple of things you should know before you take part in them:

Increasing your chances of winning

How do you that? Let me give you an example. How do you ensure that you get good marks in your school or college exam? By answering all the questions, right? The more questions you answers, the more marks you will gain. Same way, the more contests you play, the higher will be your chances of winning. Online competitions do not impose any limit on the number of contests you participate. Start participating in all the contests that you are comfortable with and maximize your chances of winning.

Eligibility requirements of the contests

Before participating in any contest, you need to go through the eligibility requirements. Some contests may be only for children under 12 years old or some contests may be only meant for people who are 18 years old or above. The contests that are meant for adults are not suitable for children. These could include contests like online poker or betting. The age is not the only criteria. Some contests may only require people of certain geographic locations to participate in it. People outside that location will not be able to take part in it.

Participate in lesser known contests

If the contest is related to famous television program or sports event or upcoming movie, many people will participate in it. Participating in such contests will reduce the chances of winning because thousands of people from across the globe or certain location may participate in it. So, it is advisable to participate in other contests that are lesser known. It does not mean that the contests that are lesser known are illegitimate. Since these lesser known contests are hosted on famous sites, they are legitimate. Also, the chances of winning in such contests are much higher as many people may not take interest in participating in it.

Register with correct details

In order to participate in contests, you may be required to register on that site or enter your details on the specific contests you participate. The person details that you enter should be correct. If you happen to enter wrong contact details or misspell your name, you may be disqualified even though you have won the contest. In other words, you won’t be able to claim your prize. » Read more: Guidelines For Taking Part And Winning Online Competitions
