I had it happen to me when I tried to upload a video of Dirt 3 to youtube for my friends, there was a few seconds of a song after a race so I got a copyright infringement despite it coming under fair use because it was literally a few seconds. Googles system is bullshit and the American music industry are complete assholes. I'm sure the 5s MAX of your song totally cost you sales.

A lot of stuff on Gnar can be described as combination of other characters abilities

ie: Ult : Fat Long Flay cross with the stun on Condemn
Passive: Renekton passive crossed with Shyvana ult that's automatically used at full rage
The mega Q is pretty much Olaf's axe toss too.

Riot said they made Gnar's transformation uncontrollable to make him easier to balance but does anyone else think it kind of has the opposite effect? It definitely seems like it's going to be really hard to balance him across all levels of play.

I really honestly think that his Mini Gnar is really weak while Mega Gnar is really really strong. You just kill him while he's a squishy turd and don't go near him when he rage is charged.

You're actually a terrible person because you compared calling someone a shitfucker in a video game to domestic abuse.

What sort of tumblr bullshit is this. Using the example of domestic abuse to help describe a behavior is perfectly acceptable because its the same mental process that lets someone be a total oval office anywhere and say they "aren't that bad". This is an example that would be used in a psychology class to help explain and describe the application and range of a particular behavioral theory. No poo poo that being a dick in a video game is nowhere near the same level as beating your wife but no one is saying that you nerd.

To get to Plat, you have to be good at the game however you don't need to be perfect. People who duel in the jungle randomly probably normally play champions that could win those fights or have higher than plat skill in other areas and not understanding when and when not to fight is what's holding them back.

I thought I'd finish my S4 placements, and then I got a Caitlyn who played like one of those old soraka bot game bots. I know that if I play a large amount of games on average these losses have a greater chance of happening to the enemy but goddam does it make me not want to play at all. It feel like this poo poo happens every time I play ranked, whereas in normals I've got an high enough mmr that this sort of thing is never seen.



What is with Bronze players and micromanaging with 100000 pings too? Far out its irritating, don't use the ping button more than once if at all tia.


E: http://www.lolking.net/summoner/oce/1310431 This was the player. For some reason they don't have any matches, but lolking isn't showing the games I played last night on my account. Was it their first ranked game ever, and their first game of lol in so long that their match history was deleted?

Vi is still amazing and easy to play. I'm trashcan jungle and even I can make her work. Vi and Wukong aren't banned very often as well and both of them are extremely good at disrupting enemy teams and locking down their carries. There are plenty of strong jungle options for sure, but Vi is still a very good choice.


Shes not really easy at all. Straightforward yes but the only jungler I'd call easy is Yi versus bronzies because it's so easy to splitpush/dodge their cc because they will never ever wait your alpha strike out, they always lead with their stuns at which point it's easy mode.

I know that I'm good enough to get atleast silver 5 this season. I am 100% sure of it. But then I play ranked, and I have to ask myself, whats the point? I just had a game where I had a Shen support who was super laggy, but was doing his best despite getting constantly abused by our MF adc. He got to level 7 before finally saying "this isn't worth it" and just alt f4ing. MF then started abusing the poo poo out of us all game, she was hella mad.

We managed to take an inhibitor and another inhibitor turret before the enemy team got their poo poo together at 45 minutes, with MF constantly abusing us and having the mentality that she was carrying. We would have won if Shen had stuck around. That combined with the literal bot playing caitlyn yesterday really makes me ask, whats the point, I never see this poo poo in normals and my opponents are usually much better than what I've seen in these 2 ranked games. I'm not even mad or frustrated, just disappointed.

E: Pretty sure I'm 9 games into placements

I know I will climb if I play enough but I don't feel motivated too. I quit ranked in bronze 2 last season getting 33lp a win because I got really unlucky with games like these, I was silver 4 on na before I swapped to oce and got put in bronze 3.

I'm happy with my performance last game, I did really well, but I get the same lovely experience every time and I just can't be bothered with it. Leagues community is hopeless.

It sounds like you are playing very few games of ranked, or that you are dipping your toe in once in awhile and then extrapolating big things from these few games. If you want to climb the ladder you should be playing probably 3-4 games a night of ranked minimum for whatever period you are trying to climb. The ranked system needs a LOT of games to correctly get you at an ELO where you are accurately placed (50/50ing most games for small ELO gains/losses).

This is exactly it. I know I am not Bronze based on normals and the few ranked game i have against bronze players. Last season when I was a worse player the game told me I wasn't bronze when it gave me 33lp a win and -10 or something a loss. I just don't have any motivation to play. I'm like, "Noones on, might as well play ranked" and then have a bad experience every time (usuaully a month or so apart) and go back to only playing 4-5man normals with my mates. Like now, 2 unwinnable games in a row. In the Caitlyn bot game, Elise did not get a single buff after her first pair (I was Vi) and our Talon was 8/0 at 10 mins and that still wasn't enough. I was happy with how I did, but it's really disappointing to have that mean nothing because it was effectively a 4v5. The MF game today was basically a 3v5.

If i was on the enemy team I wouldn't have enjoyed it either, it would have felt really cheap. Leagues a really good and fun game but the players ruin it

I normally play normals late at night, I'm Australian so it's currently 320pm here. The 2 ranked games were at ~1-2pm, only people who would have been on are unemployed bored uni students like me. I swear to god though the MF today was an 11 year old who just learned about the word "oval office" and took a sick day off school.

So, uh, heres my idea because gently caress the alternative. I had expectations and I'm not going without meeting those for another 2 years.


I get an ssd and I load everything on it. I go and live in the 24/7 computer commons and use my ssd as a portable version of my personal computer. The computers in the lab aren't half bad and could totally run league at 60 fps. Fixing the mouse would be an issue though.

I don't know about Aemrica but in Australia I could legally break my lease on uni share housing because the internet was absolute poo poo and after a few months they had done 0 to fix it. I was promised 30x better than what I got. You should try that.
