ps: sorry im being so kill/death oriented, i know it's far from being the most important thing, it's just one of the limits of league not giving out lots of data.![]()
eh, i would rather just run flat ad quints since i barely get any from my build. most people aren't dumb enough to try and 1v1 at level one, but if you can get an auto in then it's worth following up on. otherwise it's a waste of mana to try and harass with pistol.GP has pretty crazy lvl 1 stats. Throw in flat HP quints and just kill the other guy.
Nah, he's super underrated. Between his ultimate and his passive you have a pretty deadly combo of slows, and when grouped with other people Raise Morale is kind of crazy. +80 AD across your team for seven seconds and the 10% movespeed bonus. It makes for a really strong group engage.gangplank seems like such an awkward character... like he ddoesnt seem to have any worthwhile skills
so what to do in ranked:
i play adc, very safe, outfarm, get 1-2 kills no death.
top, mid, jungle lose lane, give up 5 kills each.
20 min in, TF start and i have no chance since akalis and such 1 hit me because they have 6-10 kills.
support is probably the easiest role to carry teams with in ranked and no, elo hell really does not exist.
Seriously, the CC supports bring to the table is a terror to solo queue teamwork. a nami/sona/zyra that can consistently hit a strong ult will win teamfights and win games. a thresh who can land a good pick will win games. supports are also the primary reason a bot lane will swing one way or another, by being the support you're putting yourself in the position of safeguarding the lowest level+highest gold value lane and enbsuring that your carry is the one that ramps up faster. if you're actually the better player, being support is a great idea. second only to jungle in terms of value brought to the early game and to teamfights.
It was on the front page after you logged in but it's pulled now. Look it up online if you want, it's not really that interesting.1. How do you get to the comic people were mentioning? I don't see an obvious link from the client but I probably just overlooked it.
Nope. Jungle is the easiest role to carry, a jungle can feed 2 of the 3 lanes. Support is possibly the worst simply for the fact that now matter how much CC you have, if your teammates suck, there's nothing you can do besides ward and get that clutch CC that won't do much to three fed enemies. Yes, I've 'carried' games as a support, but this only happens when your teammates know what they're doing.
Mid is the easiest role to carry with. Not only do you have influence over all 3 lanes, it's usually a champ with high burst, high mobility and as a solo laner you end up with among the most farm and xp.
Jungle CAN influence the game quite strongly and possibly carry but if your goal is to strictly carry the game, mid is the role you want.
I played too much Vayne. With a decent support I usually leave laning phase with 3-5 kills with 0-1 death.
But now I can't play other roles. I stalemate solo lanes at best and forget to pressure other lanes. Fall too many levels behind as jungler. Support is still decent.
I'm seeing waaaaayy too many support Fidds now. Probably half my games.
I started playing Varus in ranked and i'm loving it so far. 3-0 over the past two days with him. Landing a Q or two puts their adc on the run. I've beaten Ezreal twice with him and he's usually the adc that gives me the most trouble. He seems easy enough against Vayne too, and that's nice because there's a Vayne in every other game nowadays.
Shyvana skin on sale. Why not?
He called me a noob for ganking bot lane and not killing him. I did, however, kill his support 3 times and made him burn flash constantly and his support's exhaust.
These are pretty successful ganks.
Plus his mid lane ahri was all of his team's damage since he was down by ~30cs and by 2 levels.
How he failed to see any of this is why I question his position in plat 2.
Just dropping in again to say a big thank you to all those who helped me out on some of the basics by answering my questions. While I won't be able to actually start playing for a couple of days (not mentioning the fact I probably have a lot of guides to read and tutorials to watch, and that's before even playing against bots), I've certainly got a better grip on the terms, roles and generally what I should be doing and looking out for.
From the descriptions, It sounds like I'll probably like either tank or support roles the most. Jungling sounds overly complex for someone new to the game, and carry sounds too razor's edge for me. Generally speaking, I don't want to be a pain in the ass or a glory hog, which sounds like what carries are good for.
Luckily, despite how venomous a reputation this community seems to have, I'm good at cutting away pointless bitching and finding then taking into account any constructive criticism, so hopefully that's one aspect of the game I won't have trouble with.
Thanks again for all the help.
If you subscribe to Riot's youtube channel and do some verification thing on their website, you'll get Alistar for free. Since you seem to want to go towards playing a tanky character or the support role, he could be perfect for you to start learning the ropes on. Alistar excels at absorbing damage and peeling for carries. Look into some Alistar guides and see if he's right for you.
Jarvan IV.
Permaban in Plat and up. Maybe on higher Golds too.
Dunno, my plat/diamond friends tell me J4 has a very high pick/ban rate. When I duo queued with my Diamond smurf friend he almost always bans J4 if neither of us will pick him.Never seen jarvan banned in the past year. Not once.

whats the time for releases to go to community?
"technically" they officially released last week or so
I want to see C9 go against some real competition eventually. I wonder how they would fare against Koreans.

They might take a game or two, but otherwise they'll get smashed.
All KR final baby.
So I just noticed the DOTA thread is still in regular Gaming section, any reason they havent been moved to community like this thread?
I just had an adc who threw an entire game and kept saying this
HOW CAN WE GROUP IF SINGED IS TOP?
He then continues to keep going top and dying to singed while we do objectives and get inhibitors but we couldnt get nexus turrets because we have no range. Trist keeps dying at top and they eventually push it all the way in and win.
I really fuckin hate it when i feed the wrong allies.
And that sadly ended my 15 game win streak with Udyr jungle. I'm so sad![]()
what did you expect, chobara in hot pants and a midriff top dancing?
