How does anyone play soloqueue in this game given how garbage matchmaking is?

Tequila Sunrise posted:This is exactly what I was thinking. Maybe add a "If an enemy other than the marked target is hit by the bullet, they take an additional (x%) damage" or something. That would at least make it a little bit more of a risk doing it, whereas now even the squishiest champ can intercept it if they want. Or maybe even just like a massive slow/root if an unintended target took the damage? That way if the enemy team was trying to disengage they would have to choose between one of them dying or one possibly getting caught out. Then you just aim for a different target to be sure it's blocked; it doesn't really solve much. Also the idea of a sniper intentionally wanting to hit the wrong target seems pretty silly.

It's hard to get too excited about Kayne when Bey already dropped the best track of the year. Also I hate this game and I hate ranked and everyone who plays ranked is a garbage person. It would be really cool to get a game where someone didn't fly into a wild rage and quit playing the first time they died.

A Saucy Bratwurst posted:That dude is right, rank x should only play rank x, none of this golds vsing silver crap. mmr not being connected directly to lp is stupid. This is why I immediately stopped bothering with placements:  Dynamic Queue is the dumbest thing they've done in a really long time. The only benefit of ranked was that my bronze rear end didn't have to play into stacked diamond/plat teams with their bronze friend and now it doesn't even have that anymore.

After my 15th or so game in a row of people either AFKing or screaming friend of the family/human being every time they die because they try to solo a 1v3 knowing that Lyte and Riot don't give two shits about player experience as long as they're buying skins and Lyte can write some hot undergrad level papers along the lines of "People with racial slurs in their usernames are bad" I've finally uninstalled this nightmare of a game. I'm free.

Sexpansion posted:lol, ranked is so bad right now, what is going on? Man I dunno but it's infuriating. I'm at a literal 14% win rate right now and while I definitely made mistakes and probably caused at least a couple of those losses, the majority of them were either straight 4v5s or we had someone (almost always botlane) feed 12+ kills to the other botlane and the jungler before the 25 min mark. I can usually win lane reasonably, like 3/1 or 4/1 or something, but it doesn't matter when the 14/1/0 Platinum Jinx who was laning against two silver Vs comes screaming across the map and racks up a pentakill.

There's a lot of double adc comps as well with Ez/Corki mid or Quinn/Graves top, and they tend to do well. The system may not be classifying them properly.

NTT posted:His wave clear is middling at best, but his ultimate is quite possibly the strongest in the game I'm generally terrible at ADC but I've been doing really well with Jhin. Skills aside, he's just really fun to play! The only thing I don't like about him is that his traps are so easy to avoid I think I've only damaged someone with them once.

I had a bunch of RP sitting around so I tried the 11 chest bundle. Mostly skin junk and skins I already owned, but I got a shard for Pulsefire Esreal. It costs 3000 Essence to actually unlock though; none of the chests had Essence in them, and disenchanting everything else I got still doesn't even put me close to being able to unlock it. Unless there's another way to earn essence other than getting ~400 per month from disenchanting whatever you get in your monthly chests, I don't see how you actually unlock anything you get in this system.

Yeah but like you can't even buy essence. How the hell do I actually unlock this? I rerolled the other 9 skins I got into permanents and got Gragas Caskbreaker, TPA Ezreal, and Defender Leona, which are 2020 RP total, so I guess technically I saved money? Plus I have this Legendary Shard I can't unlock. Aerox fucked around with this message at 22:20 on Mar 15, 2016 |

kingcobweb posted:The whole system seems needlessly complex and puzzle-piece like instead of "here's a free thing" It feels like they fundamentally misunderstood TF2s chest/crafting system. You pony up money for chests and keys, which give you items instantly and directly, or you disenchant poo poo you don't want but can use the parts from that to build poo poo you DO want over time but it takes way longer. I thought all the chests were going to be like the free one where you got at least some essence + a shard when you opened them, but that's not the case. Here, the chests just kind of suck because whatever you get out of them you still won't be able to use because essence seems really hard to come by. You have to find something you want and then just sit on it for a month or two while you disenchant everything else you get. It really doesn't tap into the psychological thing TF2 does because it already seems like a slog and there's no instant gratification.

Since we are talking about Jhin I love him and I usually hate playing ADC but he's really fun and I feel like I do well with him even in games I lose. I would like to echo the person earlier who said they struggled with his traps. Bond or anyone else playing Jhin -- what's the optimal use on them? They take so long to explode they are easily walked out of, and in laning it's always really obvious when I've dropped one so the support will just go clear it safely the second I get out of range. I try dropping them in the chaos of teamfights but then it's just time I'm not shooting people and most people still seem to be able to just move out of the way once they trigger. Right now I'm basically just using them as wards, which seems powerful enough, but I feel like there's some sort of major use for them I'm completely missing.

Have you considered doing tier rankings for posters in this thread based on the number of sick burns they've delivered vs engagement rate and assists from other popular posters because I would be interested in that information.

Is this just the amount of RP converted into dollars, or actual money spent? Like does this include the $150 in RP I got from their stupid debit card? Or am I $620 down not including all the free poo poo I've gotten too?

My cool Hextech Crafting story is that I got a Pulsefire Ezreal shard (hooray!) but it's going to take me months to actually get the keys and essence to turn it into a real skin (It costs almost 3000 essence boo!). Also Hextech Annie looks neat and I hope I get her.

Bland posted:Man I've played over 2000 games and I don't think I've unlocked even half of the champions in the game, how many games do you have to have played to have no use for champion shards? I conned Riot out of ~$150 worth of IP with their Chase Debit Card and devoted all that RP to champs when they'd go up on sale.

Just got a League survey asking about familiarity with all the factions of League, a little quiz on which champs are associated with which factions, and then a bunch of questions about how much you care about the lore and story of a specific set of champs: Pantheon Leona TF Sion Nasus Evelynn Kalista Potentially up for lore reworks and/or full reworks? (Also questions about visiting various websites and music stuff.)

Had an easily winnable game where our Bard would stasis everyone on purpose either in critical fights or when we'd be about to take the Nexus. So glad Lyte's exciting toxicity research where no one ever gets banned so he can write papers is paying off.

I played tank Ekko tonight and even though I went like 0/4 to Illaoi and Jungle Shen's constant teleport tower dive ganks we still won and at the end of the game I was triple killing fools and walking out with 50% health. It was pretty great.

Spiros posted:It means there is no distinction anymore between solo queuers and people who play in 5 man's to get carried Playing solo isn't a good idea in dynamic queue now because chances are high you'll be thrown against 3-4 man premades and you're at a disadvantage, either because there won't be one on your team at all, or there will and they'll refuse to coordinate with/help you and blame you for everything. Dynamic ranked is pretty fun though if you always play with friends. Aerox fucked around with this message at 01:04 on Apr 9, 2016 |

Bholder posted:What the gently caress kind of games are you playing where this is true? The only difference I've noticed over the last year or whatever is that people have realized that they can be as heinous as they want to be as long as they avoid saying the magic racist/homophobic words that auto flag them for punishment. The actual use of slurs is near zero but "toxicity" is just as bad, if not worse, now that everyone knows how the system works and that its pretty much fully automated with the removal of tribunal.
