	Log in to remove this sponsored message Well, without league I'm excruciatingly bored. So, by looking through a few old games (wish I had kept them all now), I worked out a method to work out your farm efficiency. Bearing in mind that unless you are the jungler, you aren't gonna get a single cs until at least 2 minutes in, give or take a second. Take 2 minutes off your elapsed game time for starters (unless you are jungling, in which case, it's too painful for me to work out how it can be fair atm). Convert your time into seconds. Divide your total game cs by the time in seconds, and you should end up with a number in decimals. That is your average farm per second (I rounded to 3 d.p). I couldn't be bothered working out kill/assist/farm efficiency, but that's just something I did to kill some time. Anyhoo, out of all my replays (about 50 ish, 15 ish of which are me supporting), my best farm efficiency was 0.126 minions per second as Katarina. Not saying this is amazing- at all, however, it seems pretty good, especially considering my best cs scores seem to be when something screws up with LoLReplay. ANYWAY, share with me a game with your farm efficiency. OR give me your farm and game time and I'll work it out for you (yes, I'm that bored...) I think we'll say minus 1:50-1:55 on junglers. Saying that, they deserve their own division anyway, no-one will probably be farming quite as quickly from the jungle as laners should be. What's your efficiency like? ------------------- Sign up for League of Legends here! Refer ShadowCrystallux please !

	My goal is comparable to how Stanley was farming in the World Championship. I use the formula: Farm = 170 by 20 minutes (including the 2 minutes of no minions) and then 100 farm every 10 minutes after. 20 minutes = 170 farm 30 minutes = 240-300 farm 49 minutes = 340-400 farm And so on. I usually average only 70-80 farm per 10 minutes though, so it's not exactly how I want it. This is a good rule of thumb for top landers though. ------------------- Have some music

	I...I...I cant understand a word! @_@ Just be simple! Last hit every single minion you see! As for Jax: Use your Q to farm if you cant last hit. Use ypur W to farm if you cant last hit. Use your E if you err want to clear out creeps! There! Better! No more deci als!

	quote BluAnimal Farm = 170 by 20 minutes (including the 2 minutes of no minions) My best top lane farmer is Irelia, averaging around 115 minions at 20, and peaking at around 130. Meanwhile, my best mid farmer is Katarina but she's heavily dependent on whether the lane was based more around kills. I'd say in a somewhat stagnant kills lane I'd average at 125 and peak at 145. So not pro-level, but efficient. Caitlyn is about 110/135. My adc farm is reallllllly wobbly. One game I'll hit really good, and the next, well, I was too busy getting kills -_-. I do prefer it in cs per second though. Purely because it over complicates things and makes it more technical . 0.157 minions per second is the aim of yours BluAnimal :3. 0.031 more than my Katarina . ------------------- Sign up for League of Legends here!

	I genuinely know when I'm doing well in CS determined by champion and how much I've done in other lanes. As Anivia I'll be upset if I'm not hitting 180 CS by 20 minutes, and the odd occasion I've been over 200 CS by 20, which is an over-achieving game. Karthus and Orianna are along these lines too. With Ahri if I'm near 160 CS by 20 I'm content, assuming that I've gotten kills/assists in other lanes or pushed turrets with other lanes. Diana, Katarina and TF are along these lines too. I think overtime you start to realize when you're ahead or behind, and of course if you're beating your opponent that's usually a good sign. How to farm? There's so many little tips that you always need to be thinking of when CS'ing, things like if two creeps are dieing equally, auto attack one of them so it dies faster than the other. If you're AD is low, auto-attack the ranged creeps once under turret so when the turret hits it you'll be able to perfectly last hit it. Watch your creeps as well, because when you get one CS, the creeps attacking that will change targets and they might start to burst creeps down before you're able to snag the last hit accurately. Learn how much damage your abilities do, a common mistake I see on Ahri is people try to farm with her Q, and leave the creeps with less than 10 health left and then they're taken by your own minions. Make sure to lower the creeps health a bit if you can't one-shot them, otherwise you risk your own creeps taking it. Way too many tips to post and remember, but all of them need to be in your head, all the while avoiding ganks, trading harass, and communicating! ------------------- In this Dreamland, the kids are alright, and the sky is blue...

Don't farm with leap strike unless 1) It will get you to your farm quicker (just returning from base, for example) 2) you are at full mana. It's bad to burn your only escape to farm a single target. Also don't counter strike minions unless you have high mana and your enemy is no where in sight. Empower is fine for farming if you have trouble last hitting or you've got mana to spare, but for the most part you don't wanna waste mana or put yourself on cooldown when you're playing Jax. ------------------- Have some music

	I'm pretty sure the best farm I have ever gotten in a game was 326 in a 55 minute game with Vlad. I know....not great. I still have a long way to go before I can consider myself a decent farmer .__. ------------------- Join Clan NBK:http://www.clan-nbk.com White FC: 1377 7572 2530

I dont do that all the time. I use leap strike 1) my empower is at cd 2) to prevent the other laner from getting cs's. Counter strike is also useful when you need to clear out a big minion wave quickly. There. Im da better Jax.

	I don't know your age or gender, but if you could stop talking like a 12 year old flirtatious school girl to prevent the grammar Nazi in me from ravaging you, I'd appreciate it. Another helpful tip is to watch what your opponent is doing. If they're using abilities through the minion wave or AA'ing creeps and starting to push your lane heavily, you want to start AA'ing creeps to so they don't all get lost on your turret. ------------------- In this Dreamland, the kids are alright, and the sky is blue...
