Mechanics

 

    * ace= all of the enemy team is dead for the moment. Beware spawn times but now is an excellent time to push.

    * aoe = area of effect, an ability which covers an area, rather than a single character.

    * AP = Ability Power. The stat which boosts the effectiveness of abilities.

    * aura = A 'passive' which applies not only to the hero who has it, but also to heroes within the given range for the aura. A shareable passive.

    * bd/backdoor= To attack the enemies towers and base without the cover of your creeps there

    * brush = The large grass in LoL which causes your hero to be hidden to people outside of the brush

    * buff = Typically a temporary increase to some stat(s)

    * carry = A character who, if played properly, wins late game fights for a team. Typically these heroes are weak early game and require a lot of farming.

    * CC = crowd control. Moves that interfere with the other champions actions such as stun, fear, knockbacks/ups and blind.

    * ]CD= Cool down, the time between using abilities.

    * champion = The particular character that you as the summoner control

    * dd = direct damage ability. Typically DDs are unavoidable: Click ability, click target, profit. For example: Annie's Q fireball.

    * Disable = A Disable is a debuff that usually prevents some kind of action on the player. Stuns, roots, silences are all examples of disables

    * DOT = Damage over time.

    * dps = Damage per second. Also referes to characters who job it is to deal damage (As opposed to support and tanks)

    * executed= killed by a tower with no enemy hero receiving credit for it

    * Farm = Farming involves the amassing of gold for player. This is usually best done by killing a lot of creeps and killing them very quickly. Certain Heroes like Ashe and Tristana are great farmers: The first has a +gold passive, and the latter has an AOE passive.

    * feed = A player who dies constantly feeds the other team (via the gold reward for killing someone). Being called a feeder is not a compliment. A player who is fed has a lot of kills.

    * IAS= Increased Attack Speed

    * juke, juking = When being chased, juking is to fool your pursuers. Typically this happens in the jungle. A successful juke could range from eluding the enemy by exploiting line of sight, or could simply cause the enemy to mistarget a spell.
