No, I've tried.

Bootcamp is easy, but you will need a big section of your harddrive to use and a version of windows.

I actually just got League of Legends today, by using this:
-- Link Removed --

Works great. Although It gets laggy (probably because of my internet). It is a really fun game, though I suck horribly. But, I'm a new player so that is my excuse.

If you guys want a noob on your friendslist my name is Defakain. Pronounced Dee-Faw-Cane.

Removed the link to a Piratebay Torrent.

I haven't been able to play for the last week or so, since my PC has overheating problems ATM. :(

Some tips:

Gold matters more than kills or deaths. Kills and deaths do affect gold, but not as much as last hitting minions and getting Dragons. Practice last hitting! The gold-generating items are also really good: Heart of Gold and Philosopher's Stone are good for everyone, Kage's Lucky Pick is good for mages, Avarice Blades is ok but you should upgrade it later.

You're safer near your own towers. If you kill enemy minions, your own minions will meet the enemy minions closer to the enemy towers, making the enemies safer while making your own play more vulnerable. If you last hit only when the enemy minions are already on low health, you get gold without pushing your own lane too much.

Every 100 points of armor or magic resistance is like having extra 100% health against that type of damage. That means that if you already have, say, 180 armor, building 100 more health means enemies have to deal 280 more damage to kill you. So don't build only health, or only armor, or only magic resistance, but all of them. And when you're building for damage, don't build only damage, but also armor or magic res. penetration.

This a drawing a person I know did, he and I go to DiggitySC's (YouTube Starcraft 2 commentator) stream, where he streams LoL. And this is some fanart he did. Diggity streams every night at 10:30 - 11:00pm (Pacific) on Justin.tv.com. The person who did this fanart uses the username Endrian on Justin.tv, I use the name Defakain.

Heroes of newerth is gonna be F2P. In my opinion it beats LoL anytime, anywhere. HoN is gonna be my choice. Also Dota2 is coming, which might be f2p. Silly LoL won't stand a chance.

I believe Dota 2, like Guild Wars 2, will be a one-time purchase. Before Team Fortress 2 was announced, Valve hinted that one of their games was going to be Free-to-Play, and many speculated that Dota 2 was the game they were referring to at the time, but evidently it was announced that it was Team Fortress 2 that was the one to be released free of charge.

On second thought, knowing Valve, they might just release it for free anyways and add alternate looks and such for a charge, like with Team Fortress 2. That's also the way Riot Games earns their labor with League of Legends.

This is actually a quite accurate take on the average LoL players.
