No idea what im doing wrong, but whenever I try Graves I feel like I do no damage.
are you pressing the q key

because if you're pressing the q key with graves you're doing damage

no, but really, just get your passive up then e q like you don't give a shit and get back while being shot in the back by puny autoattacks

then at level 6 don't even wait for them to be low, just eqr and force them to back

graves is all about being manly and going all fuck caution

also try to play with a cool aggressive support like taric, thresh, leona

We need a new thread title.

Ya i'm just not being ballsy enough. I feel like I should be taking shots of whiskey while playing graves.

This is my story on what it takes to be a good Jungler. It is also why Jungling is too hard and I'll never be good at it cos all I do is try to gank over extended lanes that are warded where I am


Jungling in league is basically playing a 4 position (that is, in general terms, you will be the 4th richest person on the team) that requires you to have global map presence while your opponent can do the same to you

You have to gank 3x more than doto mids
However, jungle farm is always available so you are sacrificing farm for gank opportunity. You are also sacrificing the opportunity to gank other lanes. Its basically a huge balancing act of the most important resource - your time. so you better not Fuck up
-Because of this it's important to know where all the wards are which requires good team mates or being able to guess the position by player behaviour as you come for ganks
-Also, the good opposing Junglers can either guess or see you coming for gank and either counter gank and fuck you up or going into your jungle and stealing your shit
-Its important to understand which lane is more gank able than others which requires you to not able to be able to read the lane, but to understand lane match ups ie. At level 6 riven is likely to go all in on singed or that garen counters akali so is likely to be aggressive at level 3. You abuse that and gank their asses.
-It is also important to know ganging which lane is key to your victory. You basically have control over the effectiveness of your team going into the mid game. Do you want to cripple the core player of their AoE comp (Orianna), or do you want to make your poker much stronger (jayce). Do you want your tf to dominate the map in midgame and gank for him. Or Do you recognise that no matter how much you gank a lane they will always be useful to their comp (malphite). Or do you know that if zed gets ahead of his opponent it will snowball out of control.
-You also have to play invisible mind games against the enemy Junglers that requires you to have knowledge of his path, what lanes he is valuing, his last position and which lanes are potential gank targets, which is why consistent counter gankers like diamondprox are pretty amazing. Counter ganking is incredibly powerful because gankers tend to overcommit and use some skills to initiate. And as such you need to be wary of this too. You also have the choice to punish bad gangs by your opponent by stealing his camps, especially if he is a poor farming champion.

Beyond all that, there's the generic requirements such as what kind of Jungler are you playing - farmer, counter Jungler(specialises in making life hell for enemy jungler), counter ganker, power ganker (my category for those with powerful ganks), early game ganker (those that depend on getting early game gangs off) and map presence gankers (high mobility)
Also, you need to know the different gank paths and which ones are the best for the target position and the way your champion ganks
There's the mechanical requirements of your Junglers like aiming their skillshots and positioning. And playing dangerous smite games with the enemy Jungler

Tl;Dr Jungling is hard. Respect your junglers

Lunar Karma, right? I'd totally start buying RP again for that. :(

thats kitsune ahri

or whatever its called

its based on the asian folklore of the fox spirits. they gain a tail each year, and on their 10th year, rather than gaining a 10th tail, they ascend and become all golden

I don't know if normals are affected, but ARAM seems to have weird lag tonight. Two or three times I ulted as Shyvana and would just vanish and then things would unfreeze in a second or two.

that's goku ahri because she's got them dragon balls, stupid boko

and why would you say my avatar's generic :<

For a second, I thought you were talking about me. lol, it took me awhile to understand what you were talking about, until I saw the picture.

If you don't get it, it's because my summoner is: Sr Kitsune
if yo don't get it, it's because you're losing grasp of reality and address yourself as mr. ahri

and from now on, I'll address you as mr. ahri too

I'm only saying I read that as: "That's Kitsune's Ahri" (and stopped reading, because I was like, what?, then I saw the picture and realized what he meant, and read the rest of his post)
Besides, reality is overrated anyways.

:p

Just played my first game with Tresh, it went good, he's fun to play with. Unfortunately my team wasn't really playing to win, three of them were in a premade and didn't listened.

And just like that, my winning streak comes to an end. I had a good run, 12 games won in a row of 5v5* I have some defeats from customs and ARAM, so I sadly didn't get to have all my games (5v5) won in my match history ):
 
Is there no other way to record replays now, aside from video recording? LoLReplay is permabroken. PBE replay is still PBE. I wanna record my plays with Vayne. T_T I had a good play recently where I managed to get a triple kill even though I was low health and the enemies were medium-high health.

I dunno about other stuff, but lolreplay works for me :/

Even non-spectator replay? All I get is the game logo then bugsplat whenever I try to play replays.
can't say, only been using spectator mode replay, but it's working for me right now for sure. in sr, btw, haven't tried watching a tt or aram replay in a while but I'm pretty sure it works too.

make sure you have the latest lolreplay version. dude added a new version like a month ago that fixed a lot of issues

Corporate takeover

is seriously the only good league music video. It is by far the most lyrically sound. parody lyrics always sound so forced. well they obviously are, but i hate it.


------------------
OGN CHAMPIONS winter starts in 4.5 hrs. get hyped.

TL has a pretty good readup on all the teams and the many roster changes: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=419893

of note:
insec is now a top laner.
rapidstar is a sub(?)
locodoco is a sub
expression is the top laner for NJsword

this OGN also features 16 teams, up 4 from the usual 12 - which means more games and more chances that an unexpected team will be great!
