People who play AP Tristana mid and have more than double deaths over kills are the most frustrating people to have on your team. The ham never stops. I'm going to have nightmares of that loving yordle Rocket Jumping solo into Vayne/Annie/Xerath again and again and again.

I am loving this Rammus is basically how Nightblue got to the top of Challenger (pre-taunt nerf, though), as well as a dude called hairyabs. I miss being naive enough to use Mobafire guides. I loved the top one for LeBlanc made by a mid Gold dude. Studied his matchups, watched all the videos.

mushi posted:maybe I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure the only people sniffing challenger/Master are folks that like already are committed to playing this game 8 hours+ a day and have dreams of either being pro or a streamer/commentator/something if they aren't already. I'm technically sniffing Challenger, although being 10 LP away is probably realistically going to be a huge thing, and I only play 1-3 games a day, if any. I played much more last summer, though. But... yeah. I don't know how some people can grind so much solo queue. It crushes my soul so quickly.

mushi posted:I thought being D1 99LP was like a tier of its own because unless your MMR is stupid high it takes forever to get into a challenger series. But I've never even sniffed diamond, and don't really keep up on the ladder, so I don't really know how long it takes to go from D1 90LP to challenger. I mean, technically it is, in the sense that you need to win 3-4 games in a row to go from 99 LP to Challenger series, so those people are far better than mid D1 players because they'll generally beat them three out of four times or something. At the same time, 99 LP is not a place a whole lot of people sit at because you either get your series and win it and go into Challenger or lose a single game or two and are back at 90-95 LP.

He makes me think of Poppy because of the "knocks into walls to stun" thing, but he's also going to be much more flexible on what he can do. So, something like a more viable Poppy with some Kennen and Sivir thrown in for good measure.

Jelly posted:Three games tonight where the opposing team refuses to report afkers/rage-quitters, actually defends them with poo poo like, "No need to report, everyone has a bad day". Funny how you never hear that when you're on the suffering team. People are poo poo. Telling the other team to report someone on your team diminishes their feeling of accomplishment for winning. Sure, it's probably incredibly blatant that you had a feeder on full-blast, but that doesn't stop people from getting offended at the possibility that their play had literally nothing to do with their victory. People don't put much thought into their video games.

How did Rammus find his way back to the top of the win-rate charts? He was in this exact position several months ago and they specifically addressed and solved the issue by taking a third of the time off of his taunt.Bubble-T posted:If they afked or RQ for a while before the game ended they will be picked up automatically (name in red on the score screen). If they didn't, and I have no evidence that it wasn't just a DC 1 minute before we won anyway, then I'm not going to report them for that. Reporting comes down to reporting the person who you personally believe deserves to get banned on your own. Trying to sway other people is usually annoying and done way too often when things are ambiguous. Sometimes a reminder is okay. "Hey, report that obviously feeding dude. Thanks."

I always thought the best way to put money into League was to buy a couple of IP/EXP boosts by day (like 7-days' worth) and then spamming games hardcore that entire week. Actually buying champions with RP seems really, really inefficient unless you really, really want one particular one. I'd honestly play free week/450 IP champs until level 30 and I have enough IP to buy that one or two champions that I REALLY enjoyed during their free weeks, along with the absolutely mandatory runes and (one?) rune page for a total of 3.

Previous Jesus posted:If you ever get in range to use DFG on an important target as Xerath, you're probably going to die. It's a terrible item on a champion who is meant to deal damage from 1000+ range. There's also no reason to build both Morello's and Athene's. You don't need the mana regen from both and you'll do very little damage with that build. Xerath pretty much should always only build one CDR item (Froggen built CDR boots on him one game on probuilds, though, which doesn't seem bad). You don't really need mana regen blues if you manage your mana and lane pressure well early game. Or, if you do want to build more than 1 CDR item, make sure you're not actually going over 40% like with Grail/Morello's/DFG.

I apologize to whoever bought Gnar because I hyped him up. I hope you're still enjoying the little guy even if the consensus is that he blows. I legitimately thought he felt really strong, even if you don't get ahead. Unfortunately, it's way too hard to get into the fray as Mega Gnar so it's nearly impossible to wreak all of his havoc. Plus, the whole not being able to decide when you're going to all-in is a pretty lovely thing in and of itself.

I liked the part of that stream where TheWarlock starting flaming him for making mechanical errors, then accusing him of not taking the game seriously, culminating in the final insult of "ur gros", with no element of sarcasm whatsoever. Also when the same guy started giving scarra poo poo later in the night and scarra had loving none of it.
