So, I decided to hop on the bandwagon and try out the streaming thing of HoN. I'm ~ 1800 solo queue unless I'm playing with my friends then I'll hop on a sub-account in the 1600s.

http://www.justin.tv/spiffyjr - let me know if the quality looks okay.

* HoN is currently down so I'm trying League of Legends (such a shitty game).

Stop dying!

And you're right League of Legends does look pretty shitty, HoN much better. You the type of guy who screams at everyone cause they suck?

Eh, sometimes. Mostly not unless they do something completely retarded.

How's the stream quality?

The stream quality looks okay, but the UI elements are flickering in and out while you play for some reason, which is (to me) really distracting.

That always happens and there's a setting to fix it I just have to find it.

Pretty good. For some reason a lot of the graphics on the screen keep flickering, not sure if that's just me though.

Yeah what Devessi said.

Does it do it now? I read that the program I'm using requires windowed mode which I don't think LoL has (fullscreen windowed). Going to start up HoN - tell me if it flickers.

No flickering that I see.

Going to play another shitty game of LoL with my friend. Testing out the mixer so that people can hear him, the game, me, and optionally any music I wanna play.

If you want to learn HoN you can watch tournament games at honcast.com. For LoL solomid.net is a pretty good site.

I watch warpprism all the time which has lots of live feeds from the 1900+.

So, let's recap. Ended the night at 1792 after being to 1797 twice.

One game 1800 was taken from me by a team with two BR's neither of which would courier/ward while I was pebbles mid. I ended up with boots/bottle in stash for about 5 minutes and finally bought my own courier at like 15 mins when I was forced to go back.

The last game we had a 1-7 dg and a 1-8 brown (true to form!) against an overly fed Magebane/Empath/Madman. You can guess how that turned out.
