League Of Legends

Thresh is Blitz +1, TF is pick or ban in anything above Platinum.

Meanwhile, I get insulted everytime I ban Thresh, Zac and TF (my usual 3), in Bronze IV (I usually play with Silver IV/III people). Yay for Silver MMR.



The sound of slapping people's ***is so beautiful. He's really fun to play when there is no blue build in front.

jesus you and fizz were fed to all hell X.X

Are you really in Bronze IV? i've played with you a couple of times and find that you are a much better player than me. I've been going up and down from silver 1-3 and then back up. I thought you would be a silver one or gold 5 at least.

In term of level, I'm at 1200-1300 elo these days, that's around Silver III I think. I just had a very bad start in ranked (I started when I was worse than now) and it's a bit difficult to climb all of this since I can't spam matches too much.

I don't have gold level though, those guys are a step above in many ways.

1749ish yeeeuh

I am on the verge of Silver IV, I think I am around 1200. Not too sure about that though. No idea how you calculate ELO 'v'

Senkyu, you should do what I do. Just play ranked and only ranked for a period of time, like a week or something. I did that and was ready for any of my 3 main roles at any given time, top jungle and support. I was persistent and did my best, and told my team that I am strongest in top and jungle. And it got me out of Bronze! If I can do it, I am absolutely certain that you can as well!

I'm stuck in Bronze 3 -.- Win lose win win lose rinse repeat. I swear every other game there's some sort of troll.

Pretty much.. I was Silver I for a long time then just stopped playing ranked people would just ragequit over the smallest things / ignore roles have "who can ping the most in 10seconds" contests etc.

To be successful in ranked just play like it isn't ranked

just because you gain and lose LP doesn't mean you should be getting mad about losing a game

When I did this, that's how I managed to have 11 wins streak and such and climb out of Bronze V.

Unfortunately with work, I can only play 4/5 games per day. I usually take 1 or 2 games of warm up, so that's 2/3 games in ranked and if I'm on tilt, I may as well just skip it completely.

I'm on week end right now so, I'll probably warm up tomorrow and pile 15 matches in a row or something.

Also my biggest issue is that I can't find "go to" champions. Everytime I play a game with a large choice of characters, I spend a certain amount of time on each of them and try to learn them to some extent. And then I have a very hard time limiting myself to a very select few and polish them.

I tried making a 3 champ per role list, but it's tough.

i was told to learn 3 champs for each role as well. Of course doing so is really hard to do. For now my jobs are Top:Wukong, Udyr, Elise Mid:Lux, fizz Jungle: Jax, Udyr, lee sin Adc: ( i always try to do and say what ever i can from being this since i suck but if i have to i go ) Ez, Sivir and then my supports(best role i stick with what i play the most): Alistar, Leona, Lulu. No matter what I always try to stay away from mid and adc. Sometimes of course that's not possible and so at least i have 2 champs for each role that i know how their abilities work.
Edit: I also can play my tops as jungles and jungles as tops. Might not be the best of ideas but at least i know what the champs do and makes my champ list a bit bigger.

I think it's important to remember that unless your leaps and bounds better than the people you're playing with, it's going to be a grind fest

Also, looks as though you can't start an account on Oceania server yet, only transfer

Its probably best to learn 2-3 champs per role that don't play like each other to avoid lane countering. The whole game just takes practice to learn everything and to get good at. If you get on a ranked team and go for a specific role. Or even just playing with friends and only playing one role is when you start to specialize into it and basically learn all the mechanics and tricks to the champs of that role and really only focus on playing those 3 champs only. but anywho~ good luck in your endeavour !

Yeah trying to learn adc and mid but I don't know how to stay at a Safe place and end up feeding :(

Try Cait

Her range helps

Also, it's not your job to rush their carries. Stay safe and shoot what you can without getting mauled.

basically

Shoot the tank

you know oddly I've just been innately good at adc and mid, but that's cuz my first champ was morgana... she technically a mid with an important skill shot, so maybe try her out and then go from there :P, otherwise Ezreal is a good one to play throw dem bananas :D

My main issue is probably mid and support.

I have a very hard time rushing the right items on support, but I got some advices lately so I'll work on that.
My main issue mid is that I don't have much AP choice, I'm mainly attracted by the AD assassins there, or bruisers.

For the list, I picked this based on experience with the champions and viability:


All the "/" are champions I haven't played enough to remove from the list. Jungle is the hardest to bring to 3 champ, though, so much choice.

The warm up sessions are definitely good, I do those myself to get into the swing of things after a long day.

It's not really about limiting yourself to certain champs though. The greatest skill you can have in the top lane for example, is to know your own champs and know what to do against your opponents' selection. For example if my opponent uses Tryndamere, I'll just go Jax. Because I know how to play Jax well first and foremost. And because Jax is strong against those AA champs with his E, and can harass with W every time he goes for CS. And if Tryn gets annoyed and spins to you and you feel you cannot engage, just jump away, job done. Long story cut short, I have a champ that I like to play against most of my opponents' selections in the top lane. And its the reason that I rarely lose top lane match-ups. And if I have to pick first, I would pick something neutral that I know can engage and disengage at will. (eg. Renekton, Lee Sin, Yorick if I feel ballsy, Olaf, Elise etc.)

In the jungle however, I think more about what has synergy with my AP carry or something. Often you'll find that there's a fair selection that synergizes well with a lot of team setups. So in the jungle I think it's about champs I know how to play well more than anything else. If you want to make a 3 champ per role list, I'd really start with the jungle role since I think that's your preferred role, right?

EDIT: Blast it, didn't see your post there Senkyu :P

I don't know how to Top lane or mid lane well but I still play ranked, don't really need to be good at the lane(you aren't going to be as good as people who "main" that role anyways) so I say stick to one specific role if possible and say *** it if you have to go into a lane you don't know well

I'm pretty much going to go Janna Top if I get stuck in that HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE lane again.

I mean if you've ever seen someone play a role they are unfamiliar with (talking High-elo Players) sometimes they will do terrible. I mean sometimes they won't, but normally their success rate will be lower

I personally prefer my ability to play almost all champions for the role I main(support). I pretty much suck at playing nami, which I'm trying to learn at the moment, but use Janna, blitz, thresh, and lulu as my goto supports.

So as opposed to knowing 3 or so champions for each lane I've pretty much come to terms with the fact that I'm going to lose lane anyways, and am just trying to get better at the role I get to play 95% of the time because that helps my win rate more than learning other roles

arrrghhhh I hate duo queueing with friends who aren't even in the same league D:

nothing but losses :|

>Platinum V everywhere at lv 27

I wonder how long this is gonna work, haha.

I hate getting matched with Plat Vs, especially if they're on my team

I was very, very lucky, the ones on my team so far are legit. We had a Leona who single handedly baited, kited and triple killed the enemy team. It was mind blowing.

The ones in front for some reason are rather subpar I'd say. Thank you lady luck.

I just had a Gold I, legit as ***, shoved his mid lane + bot before I could get my first tower.

His full R+E+W combo sounds terrifying esp with the pet aura items. That like 17 ghouls at once creating mass chaos and damage

None of that Yorick stuff is remotely close in damage/numbers to what he will be like. All of it is written for the sake of determining his overall kit theme.

yorick is a HARD champ to play, but anyway I shoulda put on here, name on Phoenix is Areayea, name in LoL is Areayea XD

at the moment Yorick just has no real counters in lane, and his counters are more "lets just out sustain his damage" so they aren't really counters

which is why he needs to have some sort of rework. Such an unfun champ etc.
