How was your day? - League of Legends edition

[hongyu]

That's good advice. I'm really considering diving back into ranked with my friend (what's there really to lose? Resets happen soon) and hope to aim for silver at the least (we're pretty sure we at least belong in silver). What kind of champions would you say one should focus on for carrying/focusing towers like you said? I have Udyr, Volibear, Jarvan, Jax and Xin Zhao for attack speed junglers, though I've only really practiced and Udyr and Volibear. I've been told by high level players that these two are really good to carry yourself out of bronze, silver and gold with, but are there any other specific junglers I should focus on learning?

They are all good junglers, volibear/udyr is good and can murder people but they are easily kited by slows unless you get tenacity and maybe boots of swiftness. J4 is the current popular jungler, because he has good early damage/2 gap closers, xin zhao is also good due to his base damage and can go tanky/bruiser. Tbh there are a lot.

Demoted! I keep getting teams with no idea of team comps and how to team fight/push. (ex. No CC, No true Tank, No engage, Master Yi's diving in 1v5 because they are somewhat fed ) the game i got demoted from I was the tankyest on our team as the freakingggg adc.

I really want silver before the end of this season I've even tried duoing with silver/gold level players but it seems even they cannot handle the hellish pit which we call bronze.

Don't need to teamfight, if yi was fed tell him to split while you 4 group. If you have no cc you don't need to fight. If you 4 are defending while yi pushes top, it's guarenteed towers unless they send 2 top, if they send 2 top. Take drag or tower elsewhere. Teamfight is for drag contests/mid-late game turrets after other easy towers are taken down already, If you have a weak teamfight comp just ignore drag. When they go for drag. Take tower.

Split push is the answer to some situations.

hence why i said team fight/push. Yi was just diving on the entire team without hesitation or thought. ;_;

What I am saying is teamcomp matters really little in solo q, it's the strat you use that matters. Sharkboy was silver when this season started and I was bronze. We duoed for a while then stopped. Now he is diamond and I'm plat. He easily stomped his opponents when I duoed with him. My advice to you to climb out of bronze is to stop playing and watch streams/let someone spectate you and point out your mistakes. Even at gold, everytime I went on tilt I went and checked my builds/masteries/runes. Watch streams. Maybe send a replay to someone to get tips. If I just kept grinding and grinding to get games I would prob be stuck in silver still. It's around silver 2, I realized that it's good to take a good look at what I can change even though my scores are good and decent. I changed my builds/jungle routes/etc multiple times. I looked at diamond/challenger smurfs and saw what they did, how much time they keep talking about securing objectives, ignoring kills, don't need to teamfight, don't start useless fights, gank early, etc eventually you get what to do in many situations. The time I used to watch streams probably cut my climbing time by a major amount, The main point is not to just copy them, but learn why they make their decisions and use that if the situation comes up for you.

[Imagine]

All the time I spent stressing over ranked, all the time I spent with/against golds/plat in normals, all the time I tried to figure out how to become better and my 1st solo ranked game ended up being easier than intermediate bots.

Was that your placement? If so, enjoy it while you can. :P

I did one ranked game then stopped, felt that I lucked out because the soraka deserved to be lower than bronze V (went heal/TP, used heal the moment I did 1 auto's worth of damage, rushed swiftness/HG, didn't ward, kept getting caught out, only used mana to spam q, w'd and e'd minions).

First time playing Vayne ever, and I get a triple kill and 2 quads in an ARAM. Not entirely sure how it all happened, any fight I'd just ult, tumble in and pewpew everything that wasn't on my team for the most part. Would have gotten a penta except I missed pinning a Lulu to the wall by a fraction of and inch, then she sped up and ran away :(

[Mandalay]

Bought Vayne today, and I tried Akali using this guide, and it works out pretty well.

So fun pomegranateting all over enemy champions with her R.

Definitely going to buy Akali next :D

A bit frustrated to find that I suddenly have about 30 ping higher than usual (190-210 vice 160-180 range). Avoiding Ranked until I can figure out what's going on with my ne - 200 ping is the point where skillshots jump around or disappear mid-flight for me.

The servers have been lagging out the ass lately, pretty sure we're not the only ones feeling it, right hongyu?

Maybe it's this then. 200 ping is the threshold where the game becomes essentially unplayable for me.

I think I jinxed myself. Just as I say I haven't had any bad games as Udyr in the past couple of months, I have two really bad ones in a row. ._. Bad day today on League. I just couldn't perform today. It really pisses me off. All I want to do is improve, but tonight showed me I have far too much to improve upon.

Idk much I only play for fw then do other things

[Nion]

Pretty frustrated. My little brother won't duo with me for a while because I won't listen to him so I try to solo que.

Nonetheless, I'll eventually reach to gold... hopefully by the end of the season.

Doesn't your 3v3 team give you the Gold reward?

I haven't played my 10 games. I've only played 2 and they don't want me to damage their record supposedly.

EDIT: If it shows up on description that I'm Gold 3, does that mean I qualify?

[Corn]

Probably not.
