Taiwan Server
1. Eligibility and Account Preparation: Choose your server and account location
- Confirm whether your Riot/LoL account has been created (international or other regional).- If you need to move to a Taiwan server, prepare a payment method (points or credit card) that supports regional transfers.
- It is recommended to register a Taiwan server account directly: Go to the official page, select the "Taiwan/Hong Kong/Macau" area, and fill in your email and verification details. Subsection: If you are transferring from an existing account, please back up your friend list and screenshots of your achievements to prevent data transfer.
2. Download, installation, and language settings
- Download the Taiwan server client from the official website or use the Riot client for automatic installation.- After installation, change the language to Traditional Chinese (or English) in the settings to ensure the text and voice prompts match those of your local teammates.
- Subsection: If there are issues with Chinese display, check whether the system region and font support Traditional Chinese, then restart the client to apply the settings.
3. Practical Optimization of Connection and Latency (Ping).
- Replacing Wi-Fi with wired Ethernet to reliably reduce latency and packet loss.- Disable background large downloads, cloud sync, and streaming software (such as Netflix, YouTube, Steam).
- Small segmentation: If high latency occurs, check the router's frequency band, update the firmware, change DNS to 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8; if necessary, restart the router and test at different times.
4. VPN and cross-region precautions (avoid them if possible).
- In principle, do not use a VPN to connect to Taiwan servers: latency and stability may worsen, and official connection restrictions may apply.- If your location is restricted and you need to use a reliable, low-latency commercial VPN, select a Taiwan node and test ping (aiming for a stable <120ms).
- Breakdown: Be sure to read Riot's terms of use before using a VPN to avoid account risks; Verify stability during testing using custom/training modes.
5. Steps to add local teammates: Friends, Invite, and Team Creation
- Add Friend: Open the friends panel -> search for Taiwan server ID (make sure your region is TW/PH/SG).- Team Invitation: After inviting friends, click "Start Pairing" at the bottom right or select "Team Mode."
- Segments: If the recipient does not receive the invitation, confirm whether they are offline, blocked, or re-copy the full Riot ID (including #後綴) and send it to the recipient.
6. Voice and text communication: Choosing tools and setting up processes
- Recommended tools: Discord, LINE, or in-game voice (depending on stability).- Discord implementation: Create a private server -> Add a voice channel -> Invite teammates -> Set input/output devices (microphone, headphones) and test echo and noise suppression.
- Small segments: In-game voice lines are more convenient but have limited quality; Discord supports push-to-talk voice to avoid noise during matches and stabilizes the process.
7. Tactical preparation before team formation: role allocation and hero pool
- First, determine your team's main tactics (e.g., early-game lane advantage, team fight control, split push).- Role assignment steps: 1) List the two positions each person excels at; 2) Choose a hero pool that each person can consistently perform in (3-5 heroes); 3) Assign a shotcaller (main conductor).
- Sub-segments: Write a brief selection priority order (e.g., first priority jungler, second priority mid) and verbally confirm during the draft phase.
8. Casting and Ban/Pick practical skills
- Ban strategy: target the strongest or feared champions on the enemy; The first ban is given to the hero with the biggest impact in the first round.- Pick strategy: Lock in key positions (such as jungler and mid lane) first, keeping flexible players to counter enemy targets.
- Sub-segments: Use a swapping mechanism (if one person can swap, let the important slot confirm first) and send short instructions in the chat area/Discord (e.g., "I'll take the jungler first, please choose safety in mid lane"). ）。
9. Communication and command templates during competitions
- Suggested short command phrases (in Chinese): "Come to the dragon pit," "Push a tower," "Retreat for 30 seconds," "Three people controlling the dragon," etc., keep them brief and specific.- Use pings (taunt/gather/retreat, etc.) to sync with speech; shotcaller sends a countdown (e.g., "5, 4, 3...") Charge) to unify the timing of actions.
- Breakdown: After each match, have 1-2 minute discussions, avoid endless disputes over casting or mid-game, and focus on improving one or two key points.
