Can you imagine? Gee.... i can't imagine why... Maybe only because they didnt want you to push the lane? Maybe they wanted to get it pushing towards them? Getting level 2 first is not top priority in wave management. getting level 2 10 seconds after your enemies is worth if you got the wave right outside your tower. I'd expected a gold 4 support main to understand this.

Yes, you were.

To be perfectly honest.... this season i kept toxicity to a none. i started at 2-1 honor level.... now i am 3-1.. earned 4 level ups since then. (being 2-2, 2-3, 3-0 and 3-1) basically by not behaving toxic i naturally gotten more honor progress. i assume there is an algorithm that measures your toxicity level and applies it to honor progress regardless whether you can a chat ban or not. last season i was toxic as %%%% and gotten one level up the entire season.

Clearly you don't have a mortgage to pay...

ikr

They never expect the banana

/sarcasm

Dunno i choose support and get it before the timer starts ticking,

Lol, this is funny.

Undoubtedly jungle

well tough luck :P

What sense does it make to play on eu servers if you live in south asia? Your ping will be huge West asia/ middle east should play on eu

That's the whole point of playing AP supports... they carry

"Why not show players their MMR" I'll tell you why, because this match making system is a scam. it's of the their best interest to keep the MMR obscured. Because when people know everyone's MMR they could have a solid arguement against this rigged match maker making you lose on purpose

So you're telling me i'm gonna be set even more behind when my adc runs face front into that thresh hook? This update just means i'm gonna take alot more farm mid game from my team to compensate for my low income

Lux infact excels at something... She excells at zoning, crowed control and poke it's true that her peeling capabilities are not the best in the game but i am pretty successful at peeling with her. I can escape ganks with smart use of my cc... She can 100-0 pretty much anything at level 6. I usually win lane with her. If her shield hits twice it's a pretty massive shield. There's no arguemnt that morgana has the best peel in the game with her black shield and thresh with his lantern, but lux if played correctly can peel just as good

my thoughts exactly lol

usually when the people who tell me not to pick her die first for the first time they start flaming and shit like "lux shit support kser ttaking my farm noob idiot" ... pretty much proceed to troll from there... so i guess only iron kids say that

I once had a katarina apc as lux support... we stomped them :>

This. It's very true. The movement speed bonus broke him because he naturally attacks slow and it lets him escape very quickly after each time he reengages... I found him to be too mobile for an intentionally immobile artilery marksman.

Lets not turn this thread into a shitpost fiesta, okay? I made this thread to the public new players to educate them about core aspect of the game they are not using at all

I'm not salty i am genuinly trying to give out a good advice for the uneducated new players cuz otherwise they won't know. That's why it's under new player advice and not a rage post on w/e other forum

Lux can easily beat a yasuo.. But she needs to respect his gap closing capabilties and punish him when farming since she is ranged and he is melee. Just wanted to add that to your statement while i generally agree with it

Since you haven't played in silver yet i'll tell you something that won't surprise you too much... It still happens there too.. All too often. No real difference between bronze feeders and silver feeders. When my team chases i personally try to make thr best of the situation and push objectove where and when i can... Try to make the best of it Also people use their trinket 3-5 times in the entire match.

You are correct, thus i said "very little", not impossible :)

Vision is power. denying enemie's vision is just as important as setting up vision your self.

I was thinking of doing it with lux.. people don't know how to position in silver i have a positive winrate with bard but i cannot 1vs9 with him.. like i had a 80% winrate on bard and then a loss streak hit me and now i've got 56% on him

sarcasm detected

Your calculations are nullified by the fact that you think that the matchmaking is fair. I dunno what the match maker is doing in this stupid game but after winning a lot you usually get a big losing streak to force you that 50% winrate. Infact it is a much higher chance. I'm talking double digit chance

It was at first but it was too unreliable

His ult is a point click... You can't '"miss" it

Fascinating discussion.

This is the pure result of a dogshit company who doesn't listen to their playerbase. I am waiting for a company to release a game that does it better than riot and quit this game. Or atleast until some company buys this game and turns it around

You aren't breaking me any news, just because this how it's always been doesn't mean it should keep going like this and we are discussing this on forums in hopes that riot will listen to their community and make a change. With the attitude of yours, the kind of accepting it and moving on the game eventually will die not in one, two or three years but 5 or 6 years from now or just until some other game will come out and do it better than league of legends Of course it nothing out the ordinary because i started playing in preseason 8 and i never knew any other state than what we have now and i'm starting to get sick of it And quite clearly you are aware of the issue and it is bothering you to some extent so i'd appreciate if you just leave a thumbs up so riot would get my attention

I personally play with the camera unlocked 70% of the time with the switch on the spacebar. You can't play this game locked. You just can't. Learn to play mostly unlocked and you will understand the advantages of it rendering your entire arguement pointless. Besides to implement somethinng like this you'd have mirror the entire game for one team which would look just weird. The 30% i play locked is when i am chasing enemies or doing close quarters fights and can't waste mouse movements on moving the map so i lock it with the spacebar

You of all people, beeing a Bard player, should know that especially well. There is no way to tell if you got 5 assists after an ace because you cast a brilliant ultimate or because you healed the adc once and then just stood aside and watched. > > The day the ranked system seriously starts taking individual performance (based on in game stats) into account is the day League will DIE. > But there is much more to it than pure how many assists you got as a support... The game has an incredibly wide variaty of aspects to it... Every role has his own important aspects, e.g support is more about cc score, vision control and utility score, adc is more about raw damage output and farm, jungler is more about objective control and you get the point. Judging you how you played your role has a lot more to it than what you said. I am confident that such system can be added to make you lose more/less per loss and win more/less per win Which could help climbing alot. > I say **stop caring about your goddamn rank** and start caring about improving your performance. I will not say i am not trying to improve but as i said in the OP, I personally believe i am a gold player stuck in silver and i cannot improve when playing against people worse than me because they're not challenging me. I am support main and I usually win lane, And peform much better than my enemy support in virtually every aspect of the game so there's nothing i can learn from them. But if the rest of your lanes lose hard core it's hard to close the game alone thus i am not seeeing higher skilled players and i am not learning and improving from them

He gets destroyed by any adc or mage who can kite him, % damage and grivious wounds. Games are shorter at diamond+ because diamond is the first time people start to actually play as a %%%%ing team. That's the lowest elo where he doesn't reach the point where he is unstoppable. Most silver, gold and platinum games last around 35-40 minutes. at that point he is really, truly and utterly unstoppable and can 1vs5 without getting lower than 50% health. It's true that grievous wounds really helps against him and kiting him is definitely possible, however, there are certrain matchups where you don't have a lot of hard cc in the team to kite him because he was a last pick and you didn't plan on him getting picked. Also if he flashes to you he basically instantly q's you and you die with one shot. it's really arguable whether you can kite him or not. Team fighting against him is total hell because he is both the one who deals carry-like damage numbers and is both building full tank and you just have to focus him 1vs5 or else you can't kill him. Then he have 4 other teammates who totally crush you while you try to do that. He is a problem for 97% of the community.

How is that fair that to get out of silver you'd need to play at platinum level? if i play at gold level i should be able to climb to gold easily enough. if i were platinum player i should be able to climb to platinum and if i was master player i should be able easily enough to climb to master, but no. This is not how it works. you'd have to be significantly better than your opponents to climb just a bit.

for a platinum player to carry in low silver games is no big task. for a gold however, it becomes a much harder task. You'd have to be 2 leagues over the league you are playing in to be able to solo carry games. And that's why this it's so hard to climb out out of this elo.
