Alright thread, I've been wanting to expand my mid/top repertoire. I don't care about helping my team or contributing to strong team compositions, I just want to try to kill my lane opponent with unmetered aggression as early as possible, as often as possible. I've been playing a lot of Pantheon. Suggestions?

Quoting myself to give context:Enigma89 posted:I'm new to league but a hard core DotA player. Just curious what you guys think of my stats, builds and rune on Draven. I ran aery for a while but using klepto now. Enigma89 posted:Not that anyone cares but I ended up placing Silver IV (went 4-6 in placements) and now am up to Silver 3. I hit promos for Silver 2 pretty fast but lost those games so still grinding away. So I did lose my Silver 2 promos, and went all the way back down to silver 4. I kept grinding away and went on a pretty massive win streak, I have won 20 out of my last 24 games. http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=Enigma89 says my MMR is at 1,507 which apparently is gold 5. Sitting at 69 LP at Silver 2. I was hoping that I would start getting a lot more LP per match but I have only been getting +17 per game. I have heard if you start winning a lot you will go up higher in divisions but I haven't seen it yet. Does anyone know about this? Enigma89 fucked around with this message at 16:30 on Feb 24, 2018 |

The system has a confidence algorithm that attempts to determine whether you're in the correct division for your skill level or if you just got lucky/unlucky. If you started at Silver 2 and tanked all the way to Silver 4, especially in your first season ever, the confidence algorithm will have adjusted downwards to assume that you're around a Silver 4/Silver 3 level, and that an MMR above that is probably from a lucky streak. Therefore, your LP gains will still be low. You might, in truth, be above a Silver 4/Silver 3 level of skill, but the system usually requires dozens and dozens of games with a high win rate before it starts adjusting LP gains upwards.

I started Silver 4 and went to Silver 3 and into Silver 2 promos and then down to Silver 4 but I see what you are saying. Basically, I shouldn't look into the MMR too deeply. Just a general question what rank do people generally shoot for? I know it all depends on the hardcore players and the people who just play a lot but what is generally accepted as a decent rank? Gold, gold 1?

bronze is below average, silver is average, gold is slightly above average, so on.

Gold gets you a free skin at the end of the season, so there's always that.

Shoot for whatever rank you feel comfortable going for. Too many players treat climbing the ladder like its a job and get pissy when they're not as high as they think they should be. It sounds trite but this is a game, when you stop having fun, chill out in some normals or play something else/whatever.

Weird that a guy who barely knows how the game works & rose to the top of the pile on mechanical skill thinks champs that let you bypass all of the actual game and teleport backwards six times when you gently caress up repeatedly are good.

Tilting down to a super average elo (mid silver) is going to be devastating to your MMR because it shows that you couldn't hang at a non-average MMR at all and had to be put down again. You might only just have balanced your MMR out now from the tilt streak where you dropped down to silver 4. You'll know your MMR is fixed on your start gaining more than you lose, which should happen eventually, but you'll need to basically have another 20/24 win/loss streak to not have it gain as much as you lose. You're going to be struggling against the system recognizing your performance supposedly isn't any better than the largest swath of league players. On skipping divisions, FWIW I haven't played a lot on my main account this season, only 28 games so far, but I have a 68% win rate and I skipped from gold 4 to gold 2 based on winrate alone. Skipping divisions is really, really hard in League and you have to set it up right so that you get into a series with 95+LP. I was getting 26LP per win and -15 per loss, and when I had 85LP I intentionally dodged a game to lose 3LP so that if I won the next game, I'd be around 98LP, and if I won the next three games to move up a division, I'd already be at an effective gold 3 ~75LP MMR in the next division when I started, and the system just moved me to gold 2. If you wanna skip, you really need to get as close to 99LP as possible and then win 3 games in a row.

Spam Musubi posted:Is Teemo still cancerous? He's annoying as poo poo to play against but he isn't very good. There are a lot of ways to nullify his ability to control the game at the moment and a good number of toplaners (such as Pantheon or Vladimir) have advantageous matchups against him.

Teikanmi posted:If you wanna skip, you really need to get as close to 99LP as possible and then win 3 games in a row. This definitely might be true, but I've skipped divisions through gold the last 3 seasons with a similar win rate and didn't bother with getting close to 99 lp. It probably can't hurt though, guess I'll try it. I think generally if your mmr on op.gg is at least 2-3 divisions higher than your current one you'll be ok (i.e., plat 4 mmr lets you skip Gold 2, and so on and so forth). It's definitely a lot harder if you're climbing because you're getting better versus climbing because you're placed a bit low. Definitely seconding though that a big losing streak can really gently caress up your mmr for a while.

In my experience when you get streaky and climb real fast you don't get LP faster, you just skip divisions.
