Just stick to ARAMs, Dominion, the new game modes that Rito introduces
If anything just play normals and catch up with all of the champs for there. The jungle is different so stick to relearning lanes first. Spoiler for IEM:

P.S: Karma pwns well, I managed to hold a lane 1v2 and still get ~55 cs by the 10' mark. She has been redesigned to fit mid and top in addition to her classic bot role...but strangely enough, few people play Karma. Spoiler for finalists:

That blue shell made me cry tears of joy.
Well done to the WE team, what a game they brought. Gonna root for the west at the finals, but kinda split anyhow. Still incredibly bummed over SK's choke, I wanted to see them in a BO3 so bad.

Ingame or in shop?
Ingame don't sweat it, just go with recommended and start looking at some guides. The more you play you'll begin to see how certain items are non-meta and unused and you'll improve naturally. In the LoL shop, I'd save my IP and then use it all on tier 3 runes. There are guides to that as well. Keep at it, enjoy the game above all!

I ended up playing Soraka today, didn't know she had had yet another remake. What's with everyone getting skillshots? Does Riot hate targeted spells or something? ...anyway, no ADC in the team, Akali mid losing to Vlad and top just getting shredded by the enemy jungle/top. Lee Sin (not jungling but going bot against Caitlyn) spent more time in the fountain than in lane, so I was practically soloing bot with a support...again. Didn't know what else to do, so I went with warmog's/spirit visage and then a ton of AP in order to abuse her W! We somehow turned it at 40' and won after picking up a baron, but damn...that was hard. EDIT: Screw this, lagging waaaay too much to watch this game live! At least now I know what I'll be doing tomorrow morning EDIT2: So yeah, I ended up watching it... Spoiler for GAME 1:
Spoiler for Game 2:
Spoiler for Game 3:

WE, I am proud of you. While I am a bit sad that I can't see Spirit holding that championship Cup. But for what you has accomplished coming into this tournament, you guys did excellence.
Congratz TSM, for being the strongest Western team. Oh and NA > EU

This is why ARAM is so fun (or not):
http://matchhistory.euw.leagueoflege...2?tab=overview Enemy team with ridiculous burst potential with ADCs and Assassins + a Thresh for pulls. Kalista, Talon and Thresh were free rotation champs and you could feel that they never played them before. For every 2-3 Death Sentences someone on our team should have been bursted down, but Thresh either kept pulling the minions or Malphite. But we also had a nice team comp with Malphite/Pantheon engage followed by Annie/Tibbers stun. I don't think I'll ever get used to Malphite's ultimate cry, that sound + jumping towards an enemy looks too funny. Now that I'm level 27, it's about time I started to get runes, but it costs 10k+ to build one complete rune page from scratch (minus the ones I unlock as I level) with T3 runes.

After reading a guide on how to deal with the road to a Level 30 Summoner, I set up a couple of bot games to familiarize myself with the free champs. (It's also an uneven matchup at 4v3 as the guide suggested.)
First game as Ashe, I actually lost because the enemy Xin Zhao bot tore through my allies easily, and the deadlock I managed to force mid-game was countered by Xin bot's advance through bot. Second game as boots-on-head Nami, and it was much fun. According to some guides, support roles don't usually last hit to allow the companion to get more money, and since the champ comp consists of Karthus, Morgana and an idiot Trist on my side against Amumu, Cho'gath and Kog'Maw, I often switched lanes to help out the other lanes. I eventually chose Morgana over all the others, and I watched as Morgana snowballs with the help of my CC. It is nice that AIs can use non-free heroes. At least I can watch how those champs fight (or revisit those who may have been remade since last time). Next stop is Shyvana, I guess.

My thoughts!
Pretty much agree with Last Sinner though. Spoiler for Team Assessments::
@ Marcus Good for you! Play like 20 games of bots. If you have a friend, maybe you can duo bot with him in some human vs AI. Once you win like 10-15 "hard mode" bot games you can definitely hop into normals and learn how to lane against humans. I say this lightly because I had friends that taught me and walked me through it, so I learned really quick. I even had a friend lane against me an a premade 1v1 so I could learn the basics of laning and trading. Do what works with you! Also ARAMs for fun and learning how to dodge and zone. Anyhow, I would advise when you're playing solid normal games to main Gangplank mid. He teaches you ALL the basics. When to poke, when to use powerspikes, when to trade, how to conserve mana, map awareness, how to make plays with your map awarness and your ult, and how to farm. Great champ for learning some very important aspects of the game. Also he's a pirate. Who doesn't like that? Keep at it!

IEM is normally a good tournament with its finisher in Katowice. Watch the 2013 grand finals between Frost and Blaze - that was a good set. If you have the patience for only one game, watch Game 3 of that set. It is an epic. As for 2014 IEM, it was definitely better than 2014 All-Stars.
