Edited by Jeimsu at 2018-6-4 07:39 PM

Aggro - To have tower aggro means the tower is targeting (and so attacking) you. You can lose tower aggro by stepping out of range of
the tower. You can gain tower aggro by being the first to step within tower range. Or if you enter within range of the tower, say after your
minions, then you can still get tower aggro by attacking an enemy champion while under the tower.

opponent, they will face you and do some damage back. If you deal much more damage than you take then that was a good exchange.

actually, noob is refered to a player who is bad nowadays or the beginner that doesn't want to be better, but noob is not equal to newb,
who's just learning how to. Also, you could add feed/feeder (to give kills on purpose)
EDIT: You could also mention flamer (says bad things about you, often fucks your mother (no insult, just an example of their behavior))
and troll (person who trolls, often feeds, sometimes picks strange heroes with strange spells and buys strange items like 6 pairs of
wizard boots for exemplary Layla). If I'll recall any other, I'll write it down here :-)
