Just fucking look at this shit. I rape the other team, my team feeds, we lose.

58% (Probably closer to 65% if we remove the ranked losses) win rate in normals (with Vayne), like 5% win rate in ranked? wtf!

Well, this being a team game, obviously you'll need to rely on your team, you can't do it all on your own.

Looks like mechanics wise you're good for your level, but what about your team-working skills? If your team is clueless you'll need to guide them, you can't just be their main damage source, you've got to be their shot caller.

Learn when to take objectives and tell them when you should go for a dragon, a baron or a tower. If you're losing the teamfights don't keep forcing them, tell them to avoid them and split for some towers instead.

People will usually do what the most fed player says, that's when you've got to step in and become their leader, improve your team working skills.

So I haerd you like Executioner's Calling

Since it's time to QQ about ranked, what is it with ranked and smurfs? I've just met a Varus that crushed us in lane and he had a Plat border, but was otherwise Silver 3. Yet another bullshit loss. He had horrible stats on his ranked stats overall but when looking at his last 10, 10 ranked wins all with a duo queue. A smurf for sure that I think tanked on purpose. The worst was his duo queue was making fun of us in all chat, he gets carried and he's an ass about it! There are some positives too, I'm watching the replay and his skill is mesmerizing. It's just incredible what a Plat+ ADC can do in ranked, his play was so good it's hard to put it in words.

I've discovered that it nullfies any lifesteal/regen in a one on one fight to the point that the other ADC (or tank) stands no chance. It is situational though. However, you can also get the GP5 item and hold it for a while too before upgrading. (Not to mention, Barrier seems superior to ignite most of the time, which makes EC a good way to gain a partial aspect of ignite)

Actually, I will try this. However, this still leaves open the possibility of random people doing random things. They changed the ranked rating system because it truly was random chance before, seems like there is still the random chance factor (at least in lower tiers).

Share your wisdom with us, oh 800-Elo master.

If you're losing games with a farmed and fed vayne, you obviously aren't playing to win. If you kill a bunch of people and then go back to farm/shop you're a bad carry and you should feel bad. The first question you need to ask yourself after enemies die/base is "can we get baron/dragon/towers/their red/blu out of this?"

Also, this is a team game. You need to work with your team - no matter how much your superior 800-Elo intuition tells you they are all brainturds keeping you down. An ADC who can't position and work with tanks to stay safe wont be carrying shit.

Asstrox seems p. nice, attack speed marks quints 21/9/0, you kinda jungle half dead but it's fast enough. I just don't know what to build after Wriggles. Wriggles 2x Doran Sword Mercs Locket Spirit Visage? Or just Long Swords for maybe Yomuus or smth?

 

[Ulminati]

10 game ranked winstreak. Feels good man.

Only a single derpy aatrox normal game to mar my recent matches.

Enjoy the feeling while it lasts, next in line you got 5 afk's and 5 "TROLL AND FEED" teams.

 

[Ulminati]

Just a 0/7/0 rammus who raged all game because he lost his blu to nunu after failing smite :3

[edit]

But Grorious Vi fisted me back into the Zone (m) ^__^ (m)

 

[Demnogonis Saastuttaja]

So I decided to try out Asstrox in the top lane, doesn't matter so much as I have descended into the depths of ranked elohell once again (yesterday I played something like 5 ranked games, in 3 we had a dc/afk, one I knew I should have dodged because the picks were horrible and one won, not a good ratio and this has been going on quite a few days). Well of course our Cait ragequits as she dies once, not surprising at all, however this was the game of justice for me where the opponents sucked so much that they couldn't even win 5v4.



Life is fair in that everything is completely up to luck.

 

[Renegen]

Jax, Zed, Aatrox. Rise of the melee carries.

 

[Demnogonis Saastuttaja]

It was fortuitous that Jax took jungle from me because I had basically free CS and massive feed from doran sword Renekton. Also fortunate that they had 4 squishies, they died so freaking fast in teamfights that we often didn't even lose anyone.

What I like a lot about Asstrox is that he isn't too easily kited as he has his CC and with ult a long range AA.

 

[Renegen]

druiddroid is streaming right now and just as expected he looks high as FUCK.

 

[AngryEddy]

Just went 18 -1 as Hecarim, with pentakill.

 

[Demnogonis Saastuttaja]

So I tried Nunu jungle. Cheesed dragon at level 4, took random crap all around the map, tried to cheese baron when it spawned but I didn't quite have the items for that. The enemy had Akali jungle (yes), I warded his red but he tried to take it so late I was doing other crap and he couldn't even finish it off because Akali jungle.

Funny fights though. Brand bursts me, "Uh wait a moment I'll just go chomp that blue golem over there. Ok I'm good now let's fight more".

Tried it again, vs Alistar jungle. Holy shit it's gay, "sorry but you don't get to have any buffs". Well at least I found use for Nunu Bot skin.

 

[Renegen]

Practicing my Nocturne carry jungle right now and although I suck quite bad with him I did manage to be exactly that carry jungler and get a win. The score was no less than 5-17 at the 17th minute mark and if that's not enough, our top decides to disconnect for the last 15 minutes of the game. The ending was even crazier as our Fizz Xpeke'd their Nexus and got the last hit with less than 100 hp remaining. I ended the game 8-1-10 and with 284 CS in 38 minutes, feel good mang.

I got some crazy kills with him , such as one where I just cover mid and Hecarim's there and I proceed to kill him. It's a kill that was only possible precisely because neither of us in that situation thought I could kill him. His mechanics seem quite complicated and knowing when to go in and be hyper aggressive versus when not to is something that takes a lot of experience. It was even my first time with him where I decided to rush Statikk Shiv, it's quite counter-intuitive but it gives you a real unexpected burst and puts your farming into overdrive. Who else plays him?

 

[Demnogonis Saastuttaja]

Noct has been one of my mains for quite a while now. Basically he's a jungler with a very adaptable build, good ganks, map presence with just having his ultimate, good invasions, potential to snowball and his ultimate is really annoying to some teams, basically just let it take vision from their adc for a while and then dive something. You can also nearly always pick him, I don't think he has a lot of weaknessess. What I like about him the most is probably when you get these derp teams where everyone starts random pushing at level 1 you can just try to kill the other jungler just by either ambushing him or counter-ganking or you can just farm all day with good efficiency.

Just remember to ban Twisted Fate because fuck Twisted Fate.

 

[Renegen]

Here in NA, our only TF pro player is Reginald so as a consequence no one picks TF in soloque. You say good ganks, besides his ult I find his ganks shitty. Except coming from behind that works really well.

 

[Demnogonis Saastuttaja]

Is this the RPG codex thing where you call something average shitty? He has damage, long ranged (but weird) gap closer, spell shield and somewhat unreliable CC. His ganks work well unless the enemies all have free blink abilities and your laners have no CC at all.

First game today : Sion mid, Nidalee support, thought ok whatever I should dodge but let's just play they don't have so great picks either. Well because it's impossible to gank bot lane with Nidalee support, the most fail gay and popular out of all supports, our Ez goes AFK so that's that. Seriously what's up with that, why not just pick Lee Sin support with Ghost + Flash if you want to run away as fucking fast as possible? Because that's what supports do? Fucking Nidalee "lol this champion is tagged as SUPPORT hohoho I'm more useless than Soraka can you believe it".

Second game : argument about who supports so we have double top. Dodged that one at least.

 

[Renegen]

I guess I don't really rely on my laners having CC, if you include that, then half the champions in the game have good ganks.

 

[Demnogonis Saastuttaja]

I dodge games where my laners pick teemonidaleeyi whatever. Even Zed and Kha'Zix have slows.

Eh, don't pick Nocturne if your laners don't have any CC, then you're forced to play Nautilus or something and even then you're probably going to lose.

 

[trais]

Nidalee is good support, it's just noobs who max her Q first because OMGSPEARDAMAEG!!!1one and then miss every single one of them give her bad rep. Haters gonna hate.

 

[Demnogonis Saastuttaja]

Well so is Gangbang support or Warwick support or Lee Sin support. Oh but they're not shitty enough because they have CC.
