    Tried out sivir over trynd for one game and its goddamn night and day. She may not be able to kill other champions faster at level 18 but she gets there fast and gets tons of money which is way better for solo queue

    sounds like you solo queued

    so yeah

    I actually duo queued and I don't play ranked so its normal games but I haven't had this level of bullshit ever. It started on Saturday

    I've heard duo queue makes your opponents extra hard

    but I've never heard of it making your teammates extra suck

    I'm finding it really hard to believe that people are as fucking stupid in League as they really are. I played a bomb as tank Singed, basically unkillable unless the whole other team all jumped me and even then I almost lived. All I need from my team is to beat the fuck out of the other teams squishes while I fuck with the tanks and poison the squishes. Is that so much to ask for? Can't believe I lost that game

    Next game was a Blitztank, I was wrecking the other team, they were all AP except for Amumu who was the only tank. They couldn't touch me for the most part and again, all I needed from my team was them to wreck their DPS. Didn't fucking happen, I ran into the middle of the enemy team and proceeded to dish out some hurt while my team trudged into the fight and each went after a different target instead of doing some focus fire. Fucking awesome, bunch of fucking assholes.

    8 games in a row so far and I've only managed to win two. What a miserable night to play LoL. I have no idea what more I can do, did I miss something?

    Yeah, I know. My games have been about 50/50, but man... when you've got an idiot on your team, it's so damn frustrating.


    Hey

    Hey Trist

    Maybe you should stop going off on your own into the enemy jungle?

    So you don't keep getting ganked like that?

    And then blaming us?


    Hey

    Hey Tryndamere

    Maybe you should attack Miss Fortune?

    And not Garen?

    Who does not understand that Sunfires no longer stack I guess?



    Of course it's solo queue, so you get what you get (I just didn't want to take New Kat into PA Premades until I got a feel for her).

    Whoever you make contact with while you're in truck mode takes damage and is knocked back.


    And whenever you use your ulti the game starts playing Stan Bush's 'The Touch'.

    You ever have one of those games where not only you play well, but your team plays well, and you're just rolling the enemy team? And then suddenly it's 25 minutes and the tables are turned, and they're stomping on your inhibitors?

    Yeah, I just had one of those games.

    Sigh :(

    I'm having a really bad run in solo queue. Lots of losses, some of which are partly my fault, mostly though out of my control because my team is terrible. Almost all my wins feel like one-sided steamrolls, where I play well but don't feel like I was the difference between winning or losing, could have inserted any player into my spot in the team and we still would have won.

    Just lots of horrible matchmaking failures, basically. It's probably because I'm playing too many games in the middle of the night and players suck at this time of night.

    This game is so much more fun when matchmaking actually succeeds in putting you in a competitive match where the teams are pretty balanced.

    Fucking ouch.

    Just got absolutely clobbered by a good Shaco & Twitch. Went 1/12/whatever


    Man I fucking hate the stealth mechanics in this game. Some characters just don't make enough early gold for vision wards and/or Oracle's.

    EDIT: That, and vision wards are just lulz for stealthers to counter. Oh, look - Shaco and Twitch bought Oracles. Welp, there goes all of our map awareness and stealth detection.

    Yeah, jungling when there is a Twitch or Eve on the other team is futile. You should just head straight to a lane when you see them at the loading screen.

    You know, now that we're out of the AoE metagame I can finally play Morgana in ranked a lot more that I should be allowed to.

    ...dear god I think not playing Morgana for a while actually made me worse than when I had free reign over her and only her.

    There are ways to deal with enemy counterjunglers. But you need to not be a jungler who requires blue buff. If I see a stealther on the enemy team I just sit in the base until just before the camps spawn so they have no idea where I'm going to start. Then I just start at some unpredictable spot, wolves/wraiths/minigolem at random. Also, if you're Warwick, Eve is kind of a joke because if she jumps you, you just kill her. Probably the same with Twitch.

    My main is Amumu. He's the only one I ever jungle with.

    So it is very easy to figure out my route. But I did find an alternative route on a guide on Leaguecraft. It just requires me to leech 1/2 a level worth of EXP from mid. But I still have to hit blue at level 2.

    Something I've learned about Poppy:

    She is incredibly speed dependent. If the enemy team has a lot of slows, you're gonna get fucked up.

    EDIT: Malphite, Teemo, Twitch, Xin, Karthus.

    Team molasses.


    We won it, but damn I got my shit busted up.

    They have that graph thing that shows who has been free and how many times. I know that every character was free at least once.

    It's on the LoL forums in the thread they make every week announcing free champions.

    Graph isn't the right word. It's a spreadsheet.

    It's definitely false. He was free the first or second week I played the game, which was last May or June. And at least a couple of times since then. I think he's one of my favourite champs that I don't own. I just haven't felt like spending the 6300 on him, I'm sort of content to just play him during his free weeks.

    I like Kog maw. I think he's fantastic against a wide variety of mids.

    But when things get to the teamfight phase and your fucking team doesn't make any effort at all to protect you it's just stupid. I spend all my time running away and/or dying. while 3 or 4 people on my team chase janna through fucking bushes.

    sure i can only do it every 4 minutes

    but it's so fucking worth it to get off my combo

    You know, as much as I love my tanks, I gotta wonder ..

    When I used to main Kog'Maw, was I as horrendously bad as some of the Kog's I've seen recently?

    I've seen really strange builds on a Kog, and each time i've wondered if they're high whilst playing.

    The top 'wtf' build was Tank'Maw, who had a warmog's and FoN.

    Play Malz.

    Learn him.

    Then you can counter him pretty easily. That silence wall isn't that easy to land if people know how to dodge it.

    Or at least that's what it felt like when I was playing him.

    I get 1 point in Malz's wall for hitting clumped up group fights, but even W's better for punishing clumped enemies. Rest goes into E > W.

    Silence is nice but you'll rarely land it against a competent enemy without some kind of distraction.
