RealFoxy: May 11, 2011; I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.

All good points.

I just suck too much right now. Every game I play is starting to feel too stressful to work on specific mechanics, and even though I'm gaining experience, my win rate isn't changing.

If you're already Gold 4 the only reason to keep playing is inflating your end of season borders. You've already got the skin at the end of the season and better than over half the people playing. :v:

If you want to keep getting better, watch some of the more informative streamers and see what you can learn from them. Little things like managing waves, champion combos you might not have known, and just other tricks and tips will help you improve slowly.

Tony Jay's generally too menacing for what they seem to be going for with Star Dragon Man. If they really wanted Tony Jay, Earl Boen can do a Jay impression that's about 90% of the way there. (He got brought in to read off the new racial intro narration for World of Warcraft after Jay kicked the bucket.)

I think the new champ will suck. Whenever there's a grandiose trailer, the champ always sucks. Yes, that's not actual reasoning, but i can't help but have a gut feeling on this one.

Jinx was the best marksman in the game for like six months, she just wasn't adopted competitively for awhile so Riot never really looked at her.

Huh. So if last year was the year of myths, is this the Year of Evil Bastards, because Jhin is all murder-man extraordinare and this guy seems pretty Smaug-inspired.

Hey has anyone been playing Warwick? Thoughts on Warwick?

I've picked him up again in normals and I gotta say he feels pretty good right now. If your lanes don't implode before you hit 6 you can really get your team rollin, and it's pretty much the most brainless champ in the game.

I guess when he says "But they thing they do best, ... is beg for mercy." I immediately imagine four people wanting to be sparred from having Aurelion Sol on their team.

How do I lane against Trynd as Malphite? Just stick to the minion wave, and run away when he has fury until it dissipates?

And do I still start corrupting pot?

Put ZZ'Rot under your own tower and it makes it super hard for the enemy to take.

In my defense they were being really stupid. All the towers are down and nobody is on the map could they be doing Baron??? Nah time to ARAM.

I'm fairly prone to toxicity so I've found just doing /mute all at the beginning of every game turns the events into a serene hellscape.

There's two primary things to do with ZZ'rot.

The first is defensive. Drop it in a lane you don't think anyone's going to go to for a while, so like, drop it botlane if you want to Baron dance. It will autopush the lane FOR YOU so that the other team has to send someone back to clean up, don't put it forward of the river generally or it'll just get killed. If you have an inhibitor down, put it behind the downed inhibitor and it will defend the lane from superminions.

The second is offensive. When you are pushing a tower, put it behind you and it'll poop out minions that will help you take the tower. Simple, easy, but if you stop pushing it'll get instantly killed, so make sure it's a solid push.
