I think what's important to winning games in Bronze or Silver (Brilver) is to understand the mentality of the Brilver player. Their actions are completely nonsensical and illogical. Despite being devoid of reason, this mentality is not devoid of patterns. The pattern that I prefer to exploit is the "group mid." Brilvers will naturally flock the mid lane and do absolutely jack poo poo there. To fully take advantage of this I simply grab a hurricane carry or AoE damage champ, then type "group mid" after the laning phase has broken down. Before long all ten people are in the mid lane, and in an even shorter time a fight breaks out. This is when you unleash your AoE damage and clean up. To be honest, not a lot of skill is required. I actually completely agree with luna in that when you climb divisions in lower elos you don't see a lot of improvement. I think most people just get absorbed in the madness and things start to "make sense" to them like in those horror movies where someone goes crazy and starts killing everyone. This is also why I think methanar is having a rougher time then he should winning in silver. He's applying logic to something illogical. That's jut not the way to go about things down here.

the most important part in climbing elo is to actually be better than the elo you're at

How to win a bronze game: farm competently and don't feed. You'll have so much more gold than anybody else you can't lose because nobody picks a champion with crowd control. If they do they won't use it properly. Nobody can initiate and no fight will ever, ever be 5v5. How to win a silver game: as above but talk in all chat. It doesn't really matter what you say somebody will tilt over it. Focus on objectives; silver players are obsessed with kills and will chase somebody through the jungle for five minutes and fail to get the kill. Meanwhile you can just eat towers. Roam and rotate to work on taking objectives. It baffles me how many times I'll see somebody crush their lane then just run around trying to get kills the entire game while ignoring objectives. If your teammates insist on doing mid lane tower waltzes or picking stupid, stupid engagements then just split push all day.

just play hard and have fun, go aggressive and if you fail for god's sake don't tell us about it unless you legitimately can't identify at least 5 things you did wrong every game then luna will write you a 500 word essay and you can learn and become #woke

Teikanmi posted:You don't really need to and in higher elos you really shouldn't it is matchup dependent on when you can shield yourself and auto attack. against Sona or Nami it's not worth trying to poke since they trade better and heal up whatever you send them. against a braum or thresh you should freely walk through minions and auto attack them relentlessly, especially if they miss their CC, which is easy to dodge because you have +40 movespeed and ghost through minions.

the first step to winning in poo poo elo when you're "stuck" there is having the self awareness to realize nothing you do is perfect or flawless, and that you can improve on all aspects of your play. playing many games with that mentality (and not the kind where you try to lecture diamond players for playing wrong as a bronze/silver player lol). this still happens constantly with some goons who will remain unnamed, is when they get mad at me and then try to tell me what I am doing wrong, when holy gently caress look at your own play before you try to criticize someone else who is more than three divisions above you in rank also, not really a riven tryhard when you just give up like a little bitch and build tears instead of balling every chance you get

Played some games without Meth, did just as well without him in the game so it was probably just a really bad/unlucky week and I'm totally fine? The worst thing I'm doing is messing up Flash -> headbutt Pulverize combos or missing Sona ults when it's not too important anyway. KDA is almost 5.0 I can objectively say that I've been better than almost every single support player I've been up against, and the only lane i struggled with was Alistar vs Karma but won that game anyway because I had a better impact outside laning phase. I've only outright lost lane once or twice in the last 20 games. Even in the 20 game losing spree I wasn't outright losing lane, it was just not making a big enough impact after laning phase

Diamond + elo sucks and anyone whos there had better hope they dont ever meet me in real life, where I'd easily beat them up and take their challenger jacket.

Once W starts, just hold down Q and it should automatically buffer to activate once W arrives at its target. I used to be absolute dogshit at Alistar's combo and even I can now reliably pull it off by just buffering Q.

legit question, Meth -- why Stormraider's on MF?
|
# ? Oct 29, 2016 21:22 |

I instantly kill everyone without a damage mastery. Moving fast just lets me chase and get in range of people more easily. It's saved me a bunch of times too where I shoot once, get doubled movement and then just completely run around the reciprocation skill shot.

# ? Oct 29, 2016 21:25 |

With Stormraider's if you get a critical Q proc on someone you can run up to the enemy carry to try and finish them off, which is what MF usually sucks at doing since the distance at which she tries to get a Q bounce is like 900 units away from the enemy ADC usually, and it owns, seriously it just owns

So is ARAM now just a wall made out of infinite Viegars? After fighting that piece of poo poo too many times I decided to start counting and I'm currently on a hot-streak of 6 matches in a row.
