Verviticus posted:why dont you just get to a rank where the champions you like dont yield free wins This means you're locked into playing only these champions and can't play anything else unless you enjoy losing 10-15 straight games.

The subreddit is currently giving out about junglers. Are gank junglers the only good ones? I want to learn how to jungle.

I really wish I wasn't absolutely terrible at Akali. She's really fun, but considering her repeated nerfs throughout the entirety of last year she feels impossible to do well with. Maybe if I force myself to keep playing her it'll get better? I actually haven't checked her winrate now that I think about it. Does she have a more winning record on the people maining her? Or did all those nerfs take their toll and she's just been dumpstered till next time they decide to cycle her in.

She hovers around 45-50% win rate now after the latest buffs. I'd imagine this will be about as high as she'll go, since if she's any better, she'll be 100% p/b again in pro matches

Yeah, that's what I was seeing too. It's weird though as I got the chance to look for myself at champion.gg it seems like people who've got 50+ games on her in Platinum+ are around 55%? That seems unbelievably high, even if she does seem like the kind of champion that benefits from a lot of experience I guess.

Smol posted:I mean, this is true for pretty much any champion. I guess that's what I don't get. Seems kinda wild that after 50+ games she's maintaining a 10% winrate jump, and that that could be true for most champions. Even including silver games she's still at like 54% at the 50+ game rate. The numbers just seem kinda crazy, but I guess that means that if I actually learn to play her and stick it out there's maybe hope of not being completely awful

I want to learn how to jungle. its complete nonsense because people on reddit all think they're jungling at a pro level, clearing their jungle at peak efficiency and fighting over every single scuttle crab, then ganking while both jungles are totally empty. they basically think they play in peak pro game conditions. oh and this is all the scuttle crabs fault, and all laners are bad and dumb if they dont help their "can't duel the other jungler" jungler contest a scuttle crab they can't and shouldn't be fighting over.

Verviticus posted:learn more champions I'm pretty good at Caitlyn. If I played only Caitlyn I would rank up higher than where I'm at. I don't like playing only Caitlyn, so I don't do that. Your suggestion is to play only Caitlyn so I rank up pretty high so games aren't as easy anymore for me as Caitlyn. Your alternative is to... play other champions? Which I'm already doing in this hypothetical scenario?

I just had a team all refuse to remake in Ranked, then they acted like I was insane for having an issue with this especially when they were a-okay with calling a surrender not 15 minutes later??? Why would you not remake? Why would you just sit there in a lost game of your OWN VOLITION for 15 minutes before tossing some LP out the window instead of getting off scot-free? Why would you attack the one person not okay with having this inflicted on them for no sane reason??  Am I missing something obvious? The d/c'd person never came back either. I am having a loving aneurysm trying to understand this. Kite Pride Worldwide fucked around with this message at 15:34 on Mar 19, 2019 |

Or someone got to play their favorite role / champ for the first time in n games and decided that losing on their fave is more fun than being autofilled again. That or they're idiots.

I thought about those factors but only raw stupidity explains why EVERYONE voted no. Nobody said a word all game, either, and Illaoi and Ezreal went berserk on me in the lobby afterwards for 'complaining too much' as if this were just an accident and not directly their fault. Why would you risk your Ranked LP for no good reason anyway?? The mind boggles.

kingcobweb posted:This is absolutely incredible. It combines my favorite things, basketball and dealing zero damage I'm back on the horse, too. Managed to get to Gold tonight; I'm liking Ornn and Galio a lot this season for supports. Lux is also finally in a spot where she's easily an A-tier support, and she's my go-to if I'm stuck first pick with no idea of what my team comp's gonna look like. I even got a chance to try out Kayle support with Guardian, which wasn't too bad into a favorable matchup (Jinx/Kayle vs. Sivir/Janna). W max with Coin is dull but effective; might try out Q max with Spellthief's a few times to see how it compares.
